Chapter 171: Ambitious
Hearing this, Zhang Qing shuddered violently, and went in to see, at this time, it was not looking for death!
"Zhang Heng, what do you say the princess will do to the princess?"
Zhang Heng listened, frowned slightly, and said: "What else can the princess do to the prince?" Zhang Qing, when will your gossip temperament be able to change, you have been punished so many times by the master, and you still don't know how to repent, the skin is punished hard, and it is uncomfortable not to fight, right?"
"Hehe, it's not that I want to know!" Zhang Qing scratched his head and said.
Now it seems that the relationship between the master and the princess will only be better......
"With the princess's mind, at this time, the princess will decide not to do things that make the master unhappy, so you can save some snacks and stand guard well. ”
Besides, the master will laugh in such a state, I don't know if he will be cold and angry, and he will be annoyed and coquettish to the princess, such a flesh-and-blood and popular master is much better than the previous master who was about to die when he moved his brows.
"I know. When Zhang Qing heard this, his eyes rolled and asked, "Did you find more clues in that Lan maid's house?"
"No, the traces were probably erased from the beginning, and nothing was found except for the poppy incense found by the princess and the pieces of cloth that she had seized to death. Zhang Heng said in a deep voice.
When investigating Lan's background, the daughter of a farmer, whose family was poor, was sold to improve the family's situation. All of this seems to be so logical, she was taken by Mrs. Mu, and she was trained into a confidant to control the princess.
Such a person has never been ambitious, and it is normal for him to have the courage to drug his master, want to cook raw rice and cook rice, and seek a good future for himself.
It's just that she was too stupid, miscalculated, and too confident to wait for her master to pass through the outer courtyard.
Fortunately, Lan's stupidity allowed the master to avoid the deeper poison, because Lan wanted to pass through the outer courtyard where the master had to go to find the princess, and then give the master acacia incense, so he missed the poison of the two incense condensation.
Zhang Qing listened and asked, "Didn't our secret guards find that anyone who could appear in the mansion?"
Zhang Heng shook his head and said: "You also know that the main place that our secret guards are always staring at is around the main courtyard of the master, and as for other places in the mansion, it is also possible that there are fish that have slipped through the net, but after checking it, I didn't find anything suspicious." ”
"It seems that this man is hiding deeply. Zhang Qing said solemnly.
"The secret guard is strong, but it is also a human being, and sometimes there will be places where the monitoring is not in place, but, no matter what, this incident is our dereliction of duty. However, it is a good thing for the master, not only does he know the princess's affection for the master, but he also has the opportunity to find the antidote to the poison of ice and fire. Zhang Heng said.
Zhang Qing nodded, this is a good thing, at least, now, when the princess and her master are together, they will no longer say anything surprising and affect them.
Fan House.
The winter wind is coming slowly, and there are charcoal stoves in the four corners of the house, which are warm.
The round table was placed in the center of the room, with plump purple grapes on it, Fan Xiaoru reached out and picked one, gently tore the purple skin, and slowly put it in her mouth.
"Well, it's delicious, it's so sweet!" Fan Xiaoru said with great satisfaction: "Mother, where did you find this?
Wang glanced at his little daughter, and then looked at Fan Xiaobing, who was eating grapes quietly and elegantly, and said: "This is left by the mother of the imperial merchant Zhao family to the mother, and the mother told you, this purple grape is amazing, it is for the emperor and the harem to eat." Not to mention, there are such fresh grapes this winter. ”
Fan Xiaoru couldn't stop eating, and looked at Wang from time to time and listened to her.
"Then, why did my mother, the housewife of the Zhao family, give you such precious purple grapes?"
When Fan Xiaobing heard this, he stopped eating grapes and looked at Wang as well, his eyes full of inquiry.
"Xiaoru, although the Zhao family is not a relative of the emperor, but the family is well-off, although the wealth is invincible, but you will definitely live well if you marry. Wang said to Fan Xiaoru.
Fan Xiaoru was stunned for a moment, and the purple grapes in her hand fell on the table and she didn't know it, and asked crisply: "Mother, are you going to marry me to that fool of the Zhao family?"
"The young master of the Zhao family is not stupid, he just doesn't like to see the living, besides, you are already very old, and marrying to be a wife is the best choice. Wang frowned and said.
"No, I'm going to marry into the Four Kings' Mansion. Fan Xiaoru said angrily: "Why don't you let my sister marry?" said and looked at Fan Xiaobing, who was sitting there quietly.
Wang sighed and said, "Do you think your mother doesn't want to marry Xiao Bing?" The mother of the Zhao family takes a fancy to you, besides, the two of you are already big girls who have not decided to marry at this grade, and if you wait any longer, you will be an old girl." ”
"Mother, Cousin Rin has recruited a kiss, and I'm going to try it. ”
At this time, Fan Xiaobing spoke.
Wang stood up, his face sank, and the two daughters were more uneasy than the other.
"Do you think I don't want to send you two to the Four Kings' Mansion? If that person doesn't nod or speak, I can't help it. Also, Xiaoru, don't always think about going, the few dowry maids that Mrs. Mu sent to the fourth princess are all dead. And Xiao Bing, Mu Rin can't be humane now, don't be so persistent, of course, his current official position is a big celebrity in front of the emperor, you have to think about it carefully, so as not to regret it in the future!"
There is such a precedent, Fan Xiaoru went to the Four Princes' Mansion with such a temperament, and I am afraid that she will not be as good as the four dead dowry maids.
The backyard of the Four Princes' Mansion is no brighter than the inside of the high walls of the palace, and the women inside are more powerful than the other.
"Mother, that's because they're stupid, I'm different, as long as I can appear in front of the four princes, the four princes will definitely like me. Fan Xiaoru took Wang's arm and said coquettishly.
When Fan Xiaobing heard this, he fell into deep thought, and then said, "Mother, I still want to marry Cousin Rin." ”
Wang took the hands of his two daughters and said in a deep voice: "Why are you two so disobedient, what should you do if your life is unsatisfactory in the future?"
Fan Xiaoru said indifferently: "Mother, I don't think it will be unsatisfactory, mother, you see that the housewife of the Zhao family left you so many good things, more or less because you are the cousin of the fourth princess." Then, I am the cousin of the fourth princess, and the fourth princess will never treat me like those maids who accompany the marriage. ”
Wang said: "Mother doesn't think like this, what woman likes her husband to be divided by others? What if you are Mu Qingyan's cousin? If she allowed you to be a dowry, then she would have nodded and agreed a long time ago, and she would definitely not wait now." Don't think about it anymore, my mother told you this, just to tell you that you will marry into the Zhao family in the future and have the status of the cousin of the fourth princess, and you will live a better life than anyone else. ”
Fan Xiaoru listened, her eyes turned and turned, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
"Then, sister, mother, did you really promise to let your sister go to Cousin Rin?"
The fourth princess personally posted a red list to Mu Rin to recruit relatives, and the criteria written on it are very clear, and it is unknown whether Xiao Bing can be selected if she wants to run. ”
Fan Xiaoru stared at Fan Xiaobing with a pair of eyes and asked, "Sister, do you really want to marry a cripple?"
"Then, why are you so obsessed with marrying into the Four Princes' Mansion and being willing to be a concubine?" Fan Xiaobing glanced at her and asked coldly.
"Hmph, the fourth prince is wise and martial, so great, how can it be that Cousin Rin's kind of waste can be compared?" Fan Xiaoru said very disdainfully.
Fan Xiaobing stared at her and said, "In your eyes, a man is good, how can being a wife be better than being a concubine?" ”
"Now it's spread all over the capital, and people up and down all know that Mu Rin has become a cripple, and I still need to repeat this?" Fan Xiaoru laughed, "Sister said, whose man is useless?"
Hearing Fan Xiaoru's words, Fan Xiaobing pursed her lips, was silent for a while, and then said seriously: "I listen to my mother, I don't want to be a concubine, it's just that I still have to try it where Cousin Rin is." ”
"To be a concubine, you have to see whose concubine you are, being the concubine of the fourth prince is much better than being your wife!"
At this moment, Wang said with a straight face: "Do you two want to be angry with your mother, just talk about these words at home, but don't say it, or be heard by the maid outside the house." ”
"Mother, what's there to be afraid of!" Fan Xiaoru picked a grape and stuffed it into her mouth, and said dissatisfied.
What they say is the truth, and they don't say anything bad.
"Where have you used all this brain? These words can also be said nonsense, besides, how can you be a girl who has not left the cabinet to open your mouth and shut up, your man, your man's?" Wang slapped her the hand.
Fan Xiaoru painfully withdrew her hand stretched out again, and said very dissatisfiedly: "It's your mother again, if you fancy a man, you have to try your best to get it, otherwise you will regret it." ”
"The man you think is an ordinary man? The Four Kings' Mansion is impregnable, don't say you go in, you will be driven away even when you walk to the door. Look at Mu Qingyan again, her temperament is so domineering, the fragments of the corpses of several dowry maids received by Mu Fu can prove that Mu Qingyan is a person who is unwilling to forgive, don't talk nonsense, provoke Mu Qingyan, otherwise, no one will be able to save you at that time!"
Fan Xiaoru snorted nonchalantly and said, "Didn't she just rely on a beautiful face to wait for the favor of the fourth prince, but her bean sprouts figure can satisfy the fourth prince? ”
Wang shook his head and said: "Now in the capital, it is the dark tide that is surging, at this time, you must not make a mistake, don't when the time comes, it will affect the entire Fan Mansion." ”
"Mother......" Fan Xiaoru stretched out her voice and said coquettishly.
At this time, Fan Xiaobing also said, "Mother, did you send my booklet to the Heroic General's Mansion?"
Wang looked at the two daughters, sighed deeply, lowered his voice, and said: "The two of you will find a way to deal with the matter, wait first, and when the time comes, it will be easy to do!"
The Four Kings' Mansion is difficult to enter, and the Heroic General's Mansion is not ordinarily difficult to enter, and these two things are not easy to do.
"Mother, what time are you talking about?"
"Don't worry, my mother naturally has a way......"
The Three Princes' Mansion.
The third princess, Chu You, looked at her head full of pearls and emeralds in the bronze mirror, reached out and stroked the black hair on her forehead, and then looked at the makeup on her face.
At this time, a maid in light cyan clothes walked in from outside, walked to Chu You's side, leaned over to her ear, and said softly: "Niangniang, General Mu's Mansion received a few ...... from the dowry maids who were sent out" After a pause, he continued: "Body parts!"
Hearing the news, the third princess Chu You's eyebrow drawing hand stopped, and instantly understood what it meant, and the thrush in her hand was also broken.
"Don't let others know about this matter!" "A good Mu Qingyan, she doesn't look like a woman at all with her ruthless methods, and it is impossible to do such a thing at all.
Even if she occupied the fourth prince, even the third prince was obsessed with her, that day, she finally waited until the third prince was free, and the two could spend time together as husband and wife, but she didn't expect that after drinking too much, the third prince Jun Yan Lie shouted these three words of Mu Qingyan in bed.
Since she arrived in the Daduan Dynasty, what others say is always Mu Qingyan, what is so good about Mu Qingyan? Can she compare to her, the princess of Chu who stands at the pinnacle of power?
"Yes, Niangniang, the fourth princess chopped up her companion and fed the dog, now everyone in the capital knows it, and the slave and maid are just obedient to the voice of the people to tell Niangniang. The maid beside Chu You is a confidant to marry, so she naturally knows what Chu You thinks.
Chu You thought for a while and said, "It's up to her to jump, I'll see how long she can jump." Dealing with the dowry maids around him, isn't it just that there are still a lot of beauties in the backyard of the Four Princes' Mansion, or just a warning warning to kill a few soft feet to scare the timid. ”
When the maid heard this, she said puzzledly: "Isn't the fourth princess's dowry sent by the Mu family itself?
"It was the person personally chosen by Mrs. Mu, but this is only Mrs. Mu's person, not Mu Qingyan's person. Chu You said: "Mu Qingyan has never been at the mercy of Mrs. Mu, everyone who made trouble in the capital before she got married is well known, Mrs. Mu can stuff the dowry to Mu Qingyan, and she doesn't have to do everything she can to make the dowry take the position to contain Mu Qingyan's power, otherwise, Mu Qingyan is full-fledged, and I am afraid that she will not have a chance to control it in the future." ”
After a pause as he spoke, Chu You raised his beautiful eyes, looked out the window, and said: "The title of the fourth princess is universal, to put it bluntly, Mrs. Mu just doesn't want a granddaughter who is looked down on by her to become above everyone, she also has to bow her head." What an enviable position!"
At this time, a voice came from the door.
"The third princess, the third lady of Xiao Mansion came to greet the princess in person, and she was sitting in the palace. ”
Chu You listened, thought about it for a while, and then understood, and said with a cold smile: "Let her sit, that is, it is inconvenient for this imperial concubine to see her, let her go back, if she doesn't go back, it's okay to sit, the tea in the third prince's mansion can still be served." ”
The maid beside her flashed with doubts in her eyes and asked, "Why did the third lady of the Xiao Mansion come to the Third Prince's Mansion to find Niangniang?" Niangniang, it seems that she has no intersection with her at all. ”
"Her husband Xiao Ping died, and her proud daughter was also given to Lin Tingsheng to make a room, and it is not obvious what I want when I come here. The corners of Chu You's mouth rose slightly, raised a sarcastic smile, and said: "How can the third prince say that he is also the grandson of Xiao Mansion, and he is still the most favored prince in front of the emperor, if she doesn't hurry up to curry favor, her life in Xiao Mansion will be even more sad in the future." ”
"That Xiao Ying heard that she was talented and intelligent, and she was extremely beautiful, why did she do such a foolish thing and destroy her future?" said the maid very puzzled, remembering that other people's evaluation of Xiao Ying was very high, at least higher than Mu Qingyan in the eyes of everyone.
Is it necessary for a noble woman who is only eight buckets tall and has good talents to do such a thing to seduce the four princes?
"Regardless of temperament, the heroic and martial arts of the four princes, and his appearance is rare in the world, even if he has a violent temperament, moody, and does not blink a murderous eye, but his reputation among the people and the deterrence in the court are unparalleled. Many ordinary people in the people can live and work in peace and contentment, all thanks to the four princes' wide open policies, knowing people and being good at their duties, and never depriving a person of his future because of his background. The rewards and punishments are clear, and if a high-ranking official is corrupt and perverts the law, he will cut it with a sword, and he will definitely not show mercy. The most important point is that he still holds the most powerful army of the Daduan Dynasty in his hands, not to mention that such a man makes the women of the Daduan Dynasty heartbroken, and the women of the whole world will break their hearts for him. ”
Chu You said that when the four princes came, her eyes were shining, she was the most favored princess of the emperor of Chu, and her mother was the Ouyang family of the Marquis of Chu Town, a family of mercenaries, since she was a child, she listened to the stories of the most powerful men in the world fighting on the battlefield under the knees of her mother. With his ears and eyes, he can naturally see a lot of things in the backyard and the court clearly.
I think that at the beginning, when she came to Daduan Dynasty, the person she wanted to marry was also the fourth prince, if it wasn't for the fourth prince who refused to marry in person, and she couldn't find the fourth prince a little flaw, she would have ...... the fourth prince
It's a pity that it's a foregone conclusion now, this third princess is also good, Jun Yan Lie shouldn't let her down.
"I remember that Mu Rin wanted to recruit relatives, how has this matter developed recently?" Chu You asked.
"I heard that there are not many people who go to the heroic general's mansion to deliver the post, very few, and the courtyard is deserted, but yesterday there was a daughter of the mansion Yin who went to deliver the post in person, and this matter became a hot topic for a while. ”
"Fu Yin's daughter?who?" Chu You listened, but he was interested, Mu Rin is also an iron-blooded man, but unfortunately, his legs are useless, and he has lost all his man's rights.
Of course, for Mu Qingyan to personally recruit relatives for Mu Rin, this matter has to be paid attention to.
People who have never lost have actually lost to the waste material in a person's mouth, ugly girl, the more Chu You thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart.
"Yin Fan Zhong's daughter of the capital mansion, Fan Xiaobing, it is said that she is gentle and dignified, with a middle-class appearance, and her family background is not worthy of Mu Rin, but what is interesting is that this Fan Xiaobing's mother Wang is the cousin of the fourth princess and Mu Rin. ”
Hearing this, Chu You smiled coldly and said: "One table for three thousand miles, this cousin is afraid that the Wang family is also boasting about herself, and the information on the investigation has never been heard, the Wang family appeared when Mu Rin and Mu Qingyan were young, and they did not go to the Mu Mansion to care more because they were in the capital, and Mu Qingyan was abused. Now, it is said everywhere that it is Mu Qingyan's cousin, but it is just raising her own worth. ”
However, there are still many people who buy Wang's accounts, and I heard that the officials and daughters of the third and fourth grades in the capital are willing to accept Wang's visits. The maid told Chu You what she knew.
"Those are all vassals and elegant people, where are they true friends, they just want to follow the Wang family to climb Mu Qingyan and then climb to the Four Princes' Mansion. ”
"Niangniang, do you mean that the Wang family is just a yellow bark tree, unfamiliar and uncooked, specializing in bullying some acquaintances?"
"Wang thinks so, but Mu Qingyan and Mu Rin are things she can bully? Delusional to use this title to get more benefits, and don't look at how ruthless Mu Qingyan's heart is, the more powerful the Wang family is, the more miserable the days to come. Chu You said: "From the beginning, Mu Qingyan has never recognized the Wang family, and the Wang family is now in a relationship everywhere, and sooner or later the words spoken will have to ......be returned."
At this time, another sound came from outside the door.
"The third princess, the crown princess sent someone to invite a banquet tomorrow. ”
Hearing this, Chu You's eyes rippled, and he opened his mouth and said, "Youlian, you went back to the crown princess's people, tomorrow, I will go over." ”
When Youlian heard this, she immediately responded: "Yes, the slave and maid will go now." ”
Chu You looked at Youlian and walked out, stroked his sideburns, stood up, and walked towards the garden of the Prince's Mansion.
Mu Qingyan and Mu Rin have such a deep brother and sister relationship, it is really enviable!
Chu Xun should be lukewarm to her, after all, she is not the same concubine, but Chu Jin has never had a good face for her, and sometimes, she really suspects that Chu Jin is not her own brother.
"Niangniang, the kitchen asked what dishes you want to eat today?" A maid walked up to Chu You and asked with a bow.
Because, Chu You is a native of Chu State, and he has just arrived in the Daduan Dynasty, and he is not used to many aspects of diet, so every day the kitchen of the Three Princes' Mansion will send people to ask Chu You what he likes to eat and what he wants to eat.
"Lunch, get a hairy blood, let the kitchen put more chili peppers, these days, this princess has no appetite, let them watch the ......"
"Yes, mother!" the maid heard this, and hurried out.
Youlian went to the person who gave the crown princess, replied, gave the reward and returned to Chu You's side.
When Chu You saw Youlian coming back, his expression was faint, and he asked, "Third Lady Xiao is gone?"
"Back to Niangniang, Mrs. Xiao San left when the princess's people came. Youlian bowed and said.
"Hmm!" "Okay, the province has to find an excuse to drive people out."
"And ...... Niangniang, Concubine Lin has been thinking of various ways to let Her Highness go to her courtyard these days and nights, is this going to be beaten?"
Chu You looked at the lotus pond outside the corridor, pondered for a moment, and said, "No matter how diligent you go, it is impossible for the eldest grandson to be in her belly." After a pause, he asked again: "Did you ask, will the fourth princess also go tomorrow?"
"I asked, the people of the Prince's Mansion, I'm not sure about this, but the fourth princess accepted the invitation!"
