Chapter 364 Identity Exposed
Mama nodded: "The prince sometimes meets guests in the front hall, but sometimes he is also in the study, and no matter how specific it is, it is not for us slaves to ask." ”
Xia Ziqiong nodded, walked to the guest room, turned her head and said to Mama, "I'm tired of Mama this time." ”
The grandmother saw Michelle Xia walk in and said, "If there is anything, you can call the girl outside the door." ”
Xia Ziqiong thanked her, and closed the door as if she was physically exhausted.
After making sure that Mama was leaving, Michelle Xia hurriedly found a pen and paper in the room, wrote down the numbers with a pen, and then turned around and walked out of the door.
Bypassing a group of subordinates, Michelle Xia came directly to the front hall, wanting to go in and find Prince Mingrui.
"This young lady, you can't go in." The little guy at the door stopped Michelle Xia.
Xia Ziqiong said a little anxiously: "I have an urgent matter to see the prince, if you delay the important matter, you can't afford it!" ”
The little guy was also a little hesitant, but he still spoke: "This young lady, don't be embarrassed about the little one, I don't know which young lady you are, the little one will pass it on to you." ”
Xia Ziqiong also knew that her actions were a little abrupt, frowned and thought for a while, and then handed the note in her hand to the little servant and said, "You give this note to the prince, and the prince will know who I am." ”
The little girl turned around and ran in with the note, and it didn't take long for him to run out: "This young lady, my prince is invited." ”
Michelle Xia hurriedly walked in with her skirt and was led into an ear room on the side of the front hall by the little maid.
Prince Mingrui waited in it with his hands in his hands, and turned his senses when he heard the sound of the door.
looked Xia Ziqiong up and down, and didn't have much impression of this woman, but he also knew that this woman was brought by Xiangyu's side concubine today, but he didn't expect that the prince would hand over the small seal to her.
In Nanzhao, every official will have his own documents and official seals, and the prince is naturally no exception, but the difference is that the prince also has his own small seal, and some handwritten edicts on weekdays, or the things that the prince handles and promises, will be stamped with the prince's small seal as proof, in addition, the prince will also have some well-known jade pendants to represent his identity.
And the note he received today will be stamped with the prince's small seal, you must know that this kind of thing, the prince will not easily put it into the hands of others.
"Miss Xia, please be seated." Prince Mingrui stretched out his hand and said.
For a woman who can hold the prince's seal, Prince Mingrui naturally has to be polite.
After Michelle Xia sat down, she said to Prince Mingrui: "Regarding what is written on the note, I don't know what the prince thinks?" ”
Prince Mingrui frowned and said, "How can this Mrs. Yu be Chu Luoyi?" Chu Luoyi is obviously dead, and Miss Xia has no basis for today's empty words, which is really unconvincing to this king. ”
Xia Ziqiong nodded: "I can understand the prince's concerns, but if I can prove that what I said is true, I wonder if the prince will support my plan?" ”
"What are you going to do? Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know about this? Prince Mingrui frowned.
Naturally, he would not easily listen to Xia Ziqiong's words, even if Ouyang Qiancheng came in person, he would need to consider one or two things, after all, this huge palace, hundreds of lives, would change with every decision he made.
Xia Ziqiong said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not know yet, but the prince should know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince destroyed the Chu family back then, this time Chu Luoyi secretly returned to Tianshui, it must have been planned, the prince should know more about Chu Luoyi than me, even though the Chu family was destroyed for treason back then, but to this day, when the name Chu Luoyi is mentioned, everyone still knows it, and if he is allowed to plot, it will definitely be a major obstacle for the prince in the future." ”
Prince Mingrui bowed slightly, did not speak, it is undeniable that the young heroes of various families competed with each other in the arena back then, competing with each other, and the sons of the Chu family were the most eye-catching, and even overshadowed the demeanor of the prince of the dynasty.
And a pair of sons and daughters of Chu Guogong are Tianjiao, the eldest son Chu Qingcheng is gentle and silent, but he is always cold in his modesty, and no one can probe his depth from beginning to end, the eldest daughter Chu Luoyi shows her momentum with her gestures, I don't know how many men in the imperial capital will be ashamed.
If what Michelle Xia said is true, then did the people in the Chu family die back then? If Mrs. Yu is really Chu Luoyi, wouldn't the prince usher in a catastrophe?
Prince Mingrui's brows were twisted, he didn't know much about the Chu family back then, he only knew that overnight, the Chu family became a traitorous minister, and no one survived the huge Chu family, although he also suspected that the Chu family's extinction had no warning, did the Chu family really die out?
But a few years have passed, and the Chu family has never moved, so they have not focused on this matter anymore, after all, there are some things that do not need to know too much.
Now listening to Xia Ziqiong's words, although he is not fully convinced, he also believes it a little, after all, he has been in contact with the person of Chu Guogong, even he himself has been an official for many years, but he has never seen through the person of Chu Guogong, and even said that even his son Chu Qingcheng, he can't completely see through.
Seeing that Prince Mingrui didn't speak for a long time, Xia Ziqiong was a little anxious: "The prince only needs to help me this time, if something happens, the prince will be held accountable, and I will take care of this matter." ”
Prince Mingrui didn't take Xia Ziqiong's words to heart, this matter is not something she can bear if she says to bear it, if something really happens, their palace can't drag it out.
Prince Mingrui thought for a moment, and after thinking about it, he felt that this matter did not have any loss to the palace, so he responded to Xia Ziqiong's request.
A flash of joy flashed in Xia Ziqiong's eyes, she naturally didn't want to send Chu Luoyi to Ouyang Qiancheng alive, but if she didn't say so, I was afraid that this Prince Mingrui would not agree to help her.
Prince Mingrui listened to Michelle Xia's needs, sent someone to prepare things, and at the same time waited for Michelle Xia's dispatch.
And after Xiao Liuzi secretly followed Michelle Xia all the way, he didn't expect her to come to see Prince Mingrui, which made his brows twist into a pimple.
He hid behind a bush, waited for Michelle Xia to come out, and quietly followed again.
Michelle Xia took a few of Prince Mingrui's subordinates and cautiously turned back to investigate.
A few times, Xiao Liuzi even felt that she had been discovered, and she was scared into a cold sweat.
In fact, Michelle Xia didn't find any trace of Xiao Liuzi, but when she thought of her plan, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, for fear that something would go wrong, and she couldn't help but look back frequently.
Michelle Xia commanded a few people to move a lot of gravel and put it in the small garden, and then commanded a few people to place the gravel in different directions.
Even the place where Xiao Liuzi was hiding did not let go, Xiao Liuzi saw the guards of the palace walking around not far from him, and the cat did not dare to move in the bushes, for fear of being discovered and startling the snake.
Looking at the time when Michelle Xia ordered people to be busy with half a cup of tea, Xiao Liuzi hesitated in his heart, and after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what Michelle Xia was doing with so many broken stones.
Because there were people walking around all the time, Xiao Liuzi didn't dare to go back to report the situation to Chu Luoyi immediately.
It wasn't until Michelle Xia left with the people that Xiao Liuzi let out a sigh of relief and walked out of the bushes.
After wiping the sweat from his face, he was about to run back.
After all, this fact is a little strange, he can't figure out what this Xia Ziqiong is going to do at all, he has to go back and tell his master immediately.
Xiao Liuzi ran back with his legs in a place where there were no people.
After a small half of tea, he had to stop and stay where he was.
Because he had to admit one thing, he was lost.
Xiao Liuzi looked at the small garden in front of him with some confusion, the scene was still the scene just now, and he could even find the bush where he was hiding, but why did he get lost....
Xiao Liuzi didn't believe in evil and ran again, this time he chose a road that was not quite the same as just now, but he didn't go far, he felt a little dizzy in front of him, a burst of qi and blood in his body, and his throat was a little fishy, and every time he walked a few steps forward, he felt that the pain in his body was stronger.
Xiao Liuzi was forced to retreat, scolding in his heart, what the hell is this, what the hell is going on?
After calming down for a moment, Xiao Liuzi recalled the direction where Xia Ziqiong left with the people of the palace just now, and walked in her direction step by step, this time he didn't dare to be reckless, and moved his steps little by little.
He didn't take a few steps when he saw Chu Luoyi walking in his direction, and immediately exclaimed, "Master, don't come here, it's weird here!" ”
"There's something strange there, it's just a little trick of carving insects." Chu Luoyi smiled lightly and spoke.
Xiao Liuzi explained a little anxiously, and when he saw Chu Luoyi walking towards him, he immediately took a few steps to stop her, but who knew that after taking these two steps, the scene in front of him changed.
Chu Luoyi disappeared, and it became the days when he was whipped and enslaved as a child, and he saw the tall man wielding a leather whip fiercely, whipping him again and again.
Xiao Liuzi shook his head violently, no, no, what's going on?
In the chaos, Xiao Liuzi bit his tongue, kept a trace of sobriety, and strode back a few steps before he came to his senses.
Xiao Liuzi gasped heavily, and it wasn't until this moment that he was sure whether he was trapped here or unintentionally.
And at Princess Mingrui's banquet, Chu Luoyi's heart also sank a little, Xiao Liuzi has been gone for more than half an hour, and he hasn't come back yet, could something have happened?
After a while, Michelle Xia reappeared at the birthday banquet and returned to her place.
"How is Miss Xia's rest?" Princess Mingrui asked.
"Thank you to the princess, I already feel better after taking a rest." Michelle Xia said.
Everyone had their own thoughts about Michelle Xia in their hearts, but they didn't show it, after all, Princess Mingrui gave Michelle Xia this face.
Seeing Xia Ziqiong coming back, Chu Luoyi frowned slightly, this Xia Ziqiong has already returned, but Xiao Liuzi is still missing, presumably something happened.
After seeing Xia Ziqiong come back, Aunt Zhao and Feng Hong glanced at each other, remained silent, and continued to greet the people around them.
Chu Luoyi couldn't sit still, and was about to find an excuse to leave, when he saw Duanjing Little Prince send someone over.
"Princess Qiqi, the little prince wants to invite Mrs. Yu to come over." Someone bowed down.
Princess Mingrui frowned: "Why is this kid so rude!" ”
Seeing this, Chu Luoyi opened her mouth to explain: "The princess is wrong to blame the little prince, she just heard that the little prince of Duanjing has a snow mastiff cub, and she wants to go over to see it, so she will disturb the little prince." ”
Princess Mingrui heard this: "So that's the case, it's rare that Jing'er can meet someone who understands snow mastiffs, so Mrs. Yu, you can go." ”
