Chapter 369: Go and wash your hands
Yu Wenchu clenched Mingzhu's hand and motioned for her to look at Liao Guang, who was quietly saluting on the side: "This is the champion of the new department, Hanlin Liao Guang." ”
Liao Guang saw that Yu Wenchu introduced himself to Mingzhu, so he solemnly saluted Mingzhu again: "Xiaguan Liao Guang, I have seen the princess, please be safe to the princess." ”
"Liao Hanlin doesn't have to be polite." Mingzhu raised her hand to signal Liao Guang to get up, she was actually a little sympathetic to Liao Guang. finally became the champion, but married the princess, can't hold an important position, can't hold an important position, not to mention, the princess is not a good wife and mother, ugly. Now that Funing and him are in love, the Empress Dowager came to beat the mandarin ducks again, and she was inexplicably involved in the battle between the Empress Dowager and Yu Wenchu. Something really bad has happened.
Yu Wenchu asked Liao Guang: "Where are you going?" ”
Liao Guangdao: "I came at the behest of the Empress Dowager, but I don't know what it is." ”
Yu Wenchu said: "We are also going to enter the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager, and we happened to leave together." "Although we want to avoid suspicion, since we have already met, it seems that there is something to deliberately separate.
Liao Guang followed behind Yu Wenchu and Mingzhu unhurriedly, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Just now, the lower officials forgot to congratulate His Royal Highness and the princess, and wish the little prince a safe and healthy life." ”
Mingzhu was stunned, how did everyone know. Although the Empress Dowager also knew about it early on, according to the temperament of the Empress Dowager, it is absolutely impossible to shout everywhere. And because of what happened yesterday, she hasn't let people go back to her parents' house to report the good news, so it's not normal for the news to spread so quickly.
Yu Wenchu knew that the news had spread all over Beijing last night, so he was not surprised, but even Liao Guang knew about it, which just shows that the rumored person has ulterior motives. It's not enough to provoke the Empress Dowager, and now I want to spread the news so that those opponents can deal with Mingzhu, right? He laughed: "Liao Hanlin really has a heart, thank you." ”
Liao Guang's original intention was to remind them, and when he saw that he understood what he meant, he didn't say much, and walked quietly aside. When he acted, his hands were exposed, so that Mingzhu could see it clearly.
Liao Guang has suffered hardships, his hands are different from the delicate and beautiful Yu Wenchu and Fu Mingzheng, who have been pampered since childhood, but the joints are thick and black.
Mingzhu suddenly thought of such a Liao Guang who had endured hardships to become a master, and was really willing to go to Princess Shang for some reason? She knew about the encounter between Funing and Liao Guang, Liao Guang did appear to be interested in Funing at that time, but he didn't know that it was the princess, right?
Look at Liao Guang at this moment, the marriage was ruined, did he ever show a little sadness and despair? Not really. Liao Guang is too calm and calm, just like Funing cuckolded him in the past, no one has ever seen how angry and angry he is, sad and depressed, he is not noisy or noisy, he goes to the Hanlin Academy on time every day to run errands, and he does what he should do.
Mingzhu suddenly had another idea. Maybe Liao Guang doesn't like this family business very much, he really cares about liking someone, how can he not be sad? Maybe even Yu Wenchu saw the wrong person, and he had to talk to him about Liao Guang at another time.
Mingzhu had a number in his heart, and quietly followed Yu Wenchu until he reached the outside of Changxin Palace. The Empress Dowager summoned Liao Guang first, and asked the little eunuch to lead them to the side hall to wait, and Mulberry came over to serve tea, explaining: "The Empress Dowager has state affairs to discuss with Liao Hanlin, so I want to ask Her Royal Highness and the princess to wait for a while." ”
Something to be expected. The Empress Dowager is just an old lady in the end, and she will be angry, angry, and cautious, and her baby niece who is pampered with one hand will marry someone, and she will immediately turn her elbow outward, and anyone will be sad and sad if she changes. Mingzhu expressed understanding and waited with peace of mind.
Seeing the mulberry served tea, she subconsciously wanted to serve it, and as soon as her hand was halfway stretched, her foot was kicked lightly by Yuwenchu, and she immediately remembered the three chapters of the covenant between the two, one of which was that she was not allowed to eat things in the palace, so she was full in the morning, and the water was enough.
How did it come to this? Obviously, the two people who are the closest and most trusted are about to start guarding against each other. But logically speaking, Yu Wenchu's caution is completely correct, even if the Empress Dowager will not treat her like this, it is difficult to guarantee that the people under the Empress Dowager will do something to her, and it is not necessary that there are other people who take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
Mingzhu withdrew her hand sadly, because she was afraid that Mulberry would find out about her small movements, and when she saw a tray on the table in front of her, she smiled and said, "What is that?" ”
Mulberry didn't notice Mingzhu's small movements, although the Empress Dowager and Mingzhu were unhappy, but in her heart she still regarded Mingzhu as close as before, she immediately walked over and opened the wooden box for Mingzhu to see: "A set of woodcarved cups is just turned out of the warehouse." It is said to be carved from a tree called yew, and it is said that it is used to drink water to strengthen the body and prevent all diseases. Later, the king of Lin'an County wanted to come to thank him, and Niangniang asked him to reward him, saying that it was left to him by the emperor in his early years. ”
Mingzhu also recognized the set of cups, this thing also came to Yu Wenyou's hands in her previous life, but she didn't know if it was given by the Queen Mother, it was already placed in her house when she married into the Lin'an Palace. Because I heard that it was a good thing, and I saw that it was cute, she and Yu Wenyou often used it to drink water.
Seeing this cup made of yew at this time, she felt a little kind, not only picked it up and played with it herself, but also asked Yuwen Chu to go over and take a look: "This thing is very special, do you want Your Highness to take a look?" ”
"Nope." Yu Wenchu shook his head with a smile, and said a few words to her: "The Empress Dowager wants to reward people, you shouldn't mess around." ”
Mingzhu thought he was jealous again, so he immediately put it back, sat back beside him obediently, looked at him and smiled, and teased softly: "I just haven't seen this thing, it's just a rarity, and it doesn't mean anything else." ”
Yu Wenchu didn't care what she said, a pair of eyes only looked at her hands, and said lightly: "Look at how you got it, there is ash on your hands, hurry up and wash it!" ”
Mingzhu raised his hand to take a closer look, his hands were still white and moisturized, very clean, where is the ash? Just as he was about to say that there was no such thing, Yu Wenchu stared at her eyes again and said slowly: "Go wash your hands." ”
Mingzhu felt something different, so she didn't want to ask more, so she quietly went to wash her hands. Mulberry waited for her to wipe her hands and joked with her: "His Royal Highness is really considerate to the princess. Then he said to her, "If the princess really likes the cup, the slave and the queen mother will say, find another set for you." ”
