Wiping away the tears on his face, Ouyang Jing shouted without looking back: "What are you doing? ”

The housekeeper was stunned, this was the first time he had heard Ouyang Jing lose her temper. Ouyang Jing also realized his gaffe, no matter what the other party said, he was also an elder, and hurriedly turned around and looked at the housekeeper with some embarrassment.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I--"

"The princess doesn't have to mind." The housekeeper smiled slightly, still bent over and said respectfully.

Ouyang Jing nodded, "The housekeeper has nothing to do, so I'll go back first." ”

"Princess, the old slave just came to tell the princess a story to relieve her boredom. If the princess doesn't have time to listen, the old slave won't talk about it. ”

Seeing that the housekeeper turned around and left a little lonely, Ouyang Jing felt unbearable, after all, this housekeeper has always been very good to himself in this palace.

"I don't have anything to do now, you can say it."

A smile appeared on the butler's scheming face, and he knew that the princess had a good temperament. Respectfully turned around and stood behind Ouyang Jing, and accompanied her to start a walk in the courtyard.

"When the old slave entered the palace, the prince he--"

"Butler, if you come to be a lobbyist, then you don't have to, I won't forgive him." Hearing the housekeeper mention Ye Mo Xuan, Ouyang Jing immediately interrupted him.

"The princess is not in a hurry, the old slave is by no means a lobbyist. There must be a reason for everything, the old slave just wants to tell the princess the reason, if the princess still thinks the prince is hateful after hearing it, then hate it. ”

"Okay." Seeing that the housekeeper's attitude was so sincere, Ouyang Jing was embarrassed to continue refusing. In fact, I am also a little curious about the so-called 'cause' of the housekeeper.

"The current emperor and the prince are twin brothers, and when they were six years old, their biological mother Concubine Shu died. The emperor wanted to arrange for the two brothers to be raised by other concubines, but the emperor has protected the prince since he was a child, and the two are reluctant to separate.

The emperor had no choice but to let the two brothers continue to live together, and the nurse took care of them. I heard that when he was a child, the prince was extremely cold, and there were not many people who could get close to him, except for the emperor, the only thing he believed in was this nurse.

It's just that I couldn't imagine that the person who betrayed him in the end was actually this nurse.

Today's emperor was quite popular with the emperor when he was young, and the palace concubines were very jealous, and they thought of ways to compete for their children's favor, but unfortunately the emperor was smart and easy to deal with, and they couldn't take advantage of it at all. In the end, they changed their target to the prince who the emperor cared about the most.

The prince has a cold temperament and doesn't want to cause trouble for the emperor, so he rarely goes out of his palace, and these concubines have no way to buy the nurses around him.

They colluded with other concubines to frame the prince for theft, and the emperor was furious and wanted to hit fifty boards as punishment. At that time, the prince was still a 6-year-old child, how could he bear it.

The emperor stopped all the sins on himself in a hurry, and the emperor was naturally reluctant to let the emperor have an accident, and finally changed to 50 rings.

Although the matter was resolved, the emperor's hand was also seriously injured, and some scars can still be seen. The emperor is the only relative of the prince, and he has a deep affection for the emperor, which is like a thorn in the prince's heart. ”

Ouyang Jing nodded, it was indeed not easy to meet his brother who loved him so much in the royal family. And when he was a child, he didn't have mother's love and father's love, this brother was the only one who loved him and loved him, but in the end, it was the person he trusted the most who caused his brother to be beaten, no wonder it left a psychological shadow.

But what does this have to do with you? I didn't betray him, and I didn't hurt the emperor.

Walking on Ouyang Jing's side, the housekeeper looked at Ouyang Jing's face clearly, smiled slightly and continued: "Although this matter has hit the prince very hard, after all, it is a child and it will fade after a long time. What made the prince the most sad was what happened three years ago. ”

Ouyang Jing was stunned, there was still something wrong? Will Mo Xuan have too much to do with betrayal this night!

"What happened three years ago?" I can't say why, Ouyang Jing is actually a little anxious at the moment to know what happened.

Seeing her expression in his eyes, the butler raised his head slightly, recalling the tragedy of three years ago.

"Four years ago, the prince married Mu Qingqiu, the concubine of the Ministry of Industry of the dynasty, which is now Concubine Mu. On the day of her wedding, Concubine Mu not only brought a dowry maid, but also brought her favorite sister, Mu Qinghan.

Because she was born to a concubine, Mu Qinghan was extremely well-behaved and sensible, and sometimes even made people forget her existence quietly. The prince often went to Concubine Mu's, and gradually noticed her.

The two got along more and had feelings, and the prince loved her no less than Concubine Mu, and even sometimes treated her better. A year later, she was also promoted to a side concubine. ”

Ouyang Jing frowned slightly, and in a year, he mentioned a person who existed like a maid to the side concubine, which showed that Ye Moxuan really liked this woman.

There are so many ladies in the palace, but there is still only one Mu Qingqiu as a side concubine for so many years, it can be seen that those ladies are never as good as this Mu Qinghan in his heart.

"And then?"

Later, the emperor's birthday. The prince took the two side concubines to the palace banquet together. In the middle of the night, an assassin assassinated the emperor and was arrested on the spot.

When the prince rushed over from the mansion, he saw Mu Qinghan and a man kneeling on the ground, Mu Qinghan was injured in the shoulder, and the man was hugging her tightly.

The old slave couldn't enter the palace, so he didn't see the situation at the time, but later he heard that the man was the guard at Mu Qinghan's door, and the prince had seen them talk many times, but he didn't take it to heart. ”

See it but don't take it to heart? Feeling a slight pain in her heart, Ouyang Jing unconsciously tightened her brows.

Ye Moxuan believes in her very much, when he is usually a little closer to a man, he will suspect that he is misbehaving, and even does not hesitate to hurt himself, but he can turn a blind eye to Mu Qinghan's same behavior.

After this incident, the prince was depressed for a long time, but fortunately, with Concubine Mu Fang, he gradually recovered.

Princess, the old slave just wants you to know that even if he is as noble as the prince, he is just a mortal, and he will be afraid of being betrayed too much, and he will want to protect himself. Maybe his way is not right, and this needs to be taught by the princess. ”

After saying that, the housekeeper didn't forget to give Ouyang Jing a step down. It can be seen that the princess also cares about the prince, but her temper seems to be as stubborn as the prince, and it is estimated that she will not take the initiative to find the prince if she does not give a step.

Ouyang Jing nodded, said goodbye to the housekeeper, and slowly walked towards the plum garden alone.

She always thought that Ye Moxuan was domineering, and even such domineering was unreasonable, just because he was noble and couldn't tolerate others not listening to him, but she never thought that he was also a hard-working orphan.
