Chapter Twenty-Nine: Surveillance and Grounding
Nangong Yi'er has been staying in Prince Xian's mansion for almost a month, and Prince Xian has not stepped into the courtyard of the second princess for almost a month since he left on the night he got married. In fact, it can't be said that Prince Xian is not in the palace, but Nangong Yi'er is confined to the courtyard of the two princesses, and other places are forbidden by Prince Xian!
The subordinates of Prince Xian's Mansion will show disdain to Nangong Yi'er every time they deliver food, and the dishes they eat are two vegetables, one meat and one soup, which is already very content for Nangong Yi'er, and they have to make it themselves a lot more than in the bamboo forest garden. As for the eyes of those subordinates, Nangong Yi'er directly ignored them! But Xiao Dong muttered uncomfortably every time he saw it.
But today seems to be an unexpected day, and an uninvited guest came to the courtyard of the second princess, and this person is Shangguan Xue'er.
Nangong Yi'er sat on a chair and drank tea, and was really surprised to see the proud Shangguan Xue'er and the maid ring next to her! Is it here to demonstrate? After all, the location of the courtyard of the two princesses is very remote, and to put it mildly, it is equivalent to the cold palace of the palace, and basically no one will come to this place every day except for those who deliver food.
Nangong Yi'er deliberately pretended to be stupid and said, "...... this girl?" β
Shangguan Xue'er raised her arrogant chin and said, "I'm Shangguan Xue'er, the daughter of the right minister, come and see what kind of princess the second prince has married?" Tut-tut, you said that you are a princess, why do you live in a place like a cold palace, worse than my Xuexiang Pavilion! β
Nangong Yi'er didn't bother to pay attention to it and said: "You are the daughter of the right minister, how can my second princess's courtyard be compared to you!" β
Shangguan Xue'er suddenly sneered: "Sister Princess, I think you are mistaken!" But it's normal that you've been grounded here and don't know, this Xuexiang Pavilion was specially built for me by the second prince, and the location is naturally in Prince Xian's Mansion! In this palace, everyone acquiesces that I will be the mistress here in the future! β
Nangong Yi'er was surprised when she heard this, didn't this Shangguan Xue'er like the prince of Qi last time, how could she like the second prince again. didn't think about it deeply, so he said: "You are right, if you can let your second prince divorce me, I will definitely have no teeth for you!" Present the position of this concubine with both hands! β
Shangguan Xue'er looked at Nangong Yi'er like a monster, but was about to change her tone and said, "Do you think that the emperor can divorce his wife casually?" β
Nangong Yi'er paused for a moment, thinking that the ancient emperor did not give a divorce to his wife casually, and then said: "Then Miss Xue'er, what can you do to let your second prince divorce me?" β
Shangguan Xue'er said: "You are really naΓ―ve! If I divorce you, your life will be over! Who would marry an abandoned woman, and the first ugly girl who can only wear a veil! β
Nangong Yi'er touched her veil, it seemed that it was a little difficult to start from Shangguan Xue'er, but Nangong Yi'er didn't think about asking Xue'er to help her get out of this sea of suffering!
Nangong Yi'er said: "Since Miss Xue'er knows what this princess looks like, why bother to come over?" Miss Cher didn't come here to see what the first ugly girl looked like, right? I'll take it off if I really want to see it. After that, I had to take off the veil.
Shangguan Xue'er hurriedly stopped: "Hurry up and stop!" Who wants to see what you look like! I'm afraid of nightmares at night! β
Nangong Yi'er stopped her movements and said, "Then Miss Xue'er didn't come here for this reason this time, so why did it happen?" β
Shangguan Xue'er's face changed quickly, and she said proudly: "Aren't you curious, why hasn't the second prince set foot in your courtyard for almost a month?" β
Nangong Yi'er thought about what else could be done besides hating her, so she replied: "I'm not curious!" β
Shangguan Xue'er didn't expect her to be this reflection, she was stunned for a moment, and continued: "Then I'll tell you!" The second prince stays with me whenever he has time these days. And I forgot to tell you that I and the second prince have been childhood sweethearts since childhood! Don't think that you sit on the concubine and sit back and relax, without the favor of the second prince, you are nothing! β
Nangong Yi'er said: "Miss Xue'er, if you are here to demonstrate, then I can tell you that you are in the wrong place!" Don't you just want to say that your second prince loves you very much! Actually, you don't need to tell me, because I really don't have any interest in your second prince! To be exact, there is no interest! So Miss Cher, please come back! β
Shangguan Xue'er was about to taunt Nangong Yi'er's words with a full stomach, but at this moment, she was choked by this sentence and said slightly angrily: "You'd better remember what you said!" If you regret it, I won't let you have good fruit to eat!" Hum! Let's go, Fluttershy! After speaking, he took his maid ring and left the courtyard of the second princess angrily.
When they walked away, Xiao Dong said happily: "Miss, did you see that Shangguan Xue'er was so angry with you that she couldn't say it, even Xiao Dong wanted to laugh!" β
Nangong Yi'er said: "Of course I saw it, if your young lady is not blind!" But this Shangguan Xue'er and Prince Xian turned out to be childhood sweethearts, and this is the first time I've heard of it! β
Xiao Dong said: "Me too, but since it's a childhood sweetheart, why does this Shangguan Xue'er still come here?" β
Nangong Yi'er said: "A woman's mind is very complicated, why did Shangguan Xue'er come here, naturally it was jealousy. It seems that the love for Prince Hyun is indeed very deep! Xiao Dong nodded approvingly beside him.
In the study of Prince Xian's mansion, Ao Tianqi had just come back from the palace, and he did see the emperor a few times this month, but the emperor was lying on the dragon bed, and when he saw him several times, he actually recognized him as Ao Tianyu, which really surprised Ao Tianqi! When the queen saw this, she shirked and said that the emperor wanted to recuperate, and Aotian Qi had no choice but to retire first and go back to ponder by herself.
At this moment, the dark guard routinely began to report Nangong Yi'er's words and deeds in the courtyard, and when he reported what Nangong Yi'er said today, the dark guard obviously felt that the temperature in the study had become lower, in fact, he couldn't be blamed, the second princess did say that to Miss Xue'er! I can only report it all hard.
After listening to this, although Ao Tianqi was very angry at what Nangong Yi'er said, he quickly restrained himself, he definitely couldn't let his emotions be affected because of this woman, so he said to the secret guard: "It seems that I said that no one can set foot in the courtyard of the second princess without my permission!" How to get Cher in! Where is she? β
The secret guard said: "Miss Xue'er said that you have already agreed, and your subordinates didn't see the prince, so they let her in." However, Miss Xue'er quickly came out from the second princess, and when she saw that the prince had not returned, she went back first. β
Aotian Qi said: "This Xue'er is too nonsense! In the future, no matter who you want to enter the courtyard of the second princess, you will have to inform me, understand? β
The dark guard said: "Subordinates obey orders!" β
Ao Tianqi waved his sleeves, and the dark guard retired. Ao Tianqi sat on the chair, thinking about what the secret guard said just now, but he didn't expect that this Nangong Seventh Miss would not look down on him as a dignified and virtuous prince, she was really laughing to death! also said that he was not interested in him at all, and even more exaggerated was to let him divorce her!
Ao Tianqi wondered, is this Seventh Miss in the brain, if she looks like her, she can only be a widow for a lifetime! If it weren't for the emperor's marriage, he wouldn't have married him! She also disliked him first, he had seen a lot of tricks to capture and indulge, and Ao Tianqi unconsciously said loudly: "Don't think that if you say this kind of thing, I will be fooled to see you, there is no door!" β
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and the person who came said: "Second master, what is a person talking to himself!" There's no way! β
Ao Tianqi saw the person who came, and replied: "It's nothing, Zhuge came very quickly!" β
Zhuge Chen said with a smile: "As soon as I received the order from the second master, I hurried over. β
Ao Tianqi nodded, the two of them sat down on the chairs, and there were refreshments in a while. Ao Tianqi instructed the others to retreat before he said: "This month, I have seen my father four times, and my father has recognized me twice as the crown prince Ao Tianqi, and my spirit is sometimes sober and sometimes in a trance. I wanted to ask my father about it, but the queen was by her side every time, which was really hateful! β
Zhuge Chen frowned and said: "Compared to not being able to see the emperor before, it is already very good to be able to see him now!" But if the emperor can't even tell the difference between you and the crown prince, then something will be wrong. It is too unbelievable that the hospital has not been able to find out the cause of the emperor for so long. β
Ao Tianqi said: "Speaking of this hospital, how did you find out." β
Zhuge Chen said: "I dispatched all the secret guards and investigated almost every imperial doctor, but the result was not instructed by the queen, it is impossible to assassinate these quacks!" In the end, I had to give up! I guess that it was not the people from the hospital who caused the emperor's illness, but the queen's own hands, but I really don't know where the queen got this medicine that causes people to be in a trance! β
Aotian Qi said: "I have already inquired in Aoyu Country Yichuan, there is no such medicine!" Last time, Yichuan was tricked by you to go to the Water Mirror Country and didn't find anything, I think it may have been in the snowy region. β
Zhuge Chen said: "The terrain of the Snowy Land is strange, and it is also the farthest kingdom from the Aoyu Country, the last time he tricked Yichuan into going to the Water Mirror Country, he settled accounts with me afterwards, and scavenged my treasured tonic to the left!" I also suspect that in the Snowy Country, I wanted to trick Yichuan into going to the Snowy Country, but I didn't expect him to die! Said I lied to him last time, and I will definitely not be fooled this time! After saying that, he shook his head.
Aotian Qi said: "The snow country has been covered with snow all year round, so it is naturally not good for us to go there, and Yichuan will naturally not be so stupid to go to that kind of place." Zhuge looks like you have to send the fallen leaves to the snowy country to check and check. Qiu Feng still has to stay here to do something for me, and the princess who is married to him, this king has to let Qiu Feng monitor it! β
Zhuge Chen said: "This marriage and substitution are probably designed by the queen prince and her gang, and we all know their purpose!" It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in half a month, and the prince will not let go of such a good opportunity, the second master has to prepare early! β
Ao Tianqi said: "I have my own measure, just find a reason not to let the second princess attend when the time comes." "That being said, Ao Tianqi is not very sure in his heart!
Zhuge Chen didn't delve into it, and replied: "It's so good, then Zhuge will retire first!" β
Ao Tianqi answered, and saw Zhuge Chen hug his fist at him and left.
