Chapter 257: Strange Roads
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
The person who came was Lu Zhiyuan.
He obviously saw Bai Susu as well, his brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, and then he walked past her without squinting.
Bai Susu was stunned on the spot, her fingers tightly grasped the corners of her clothes, and she turned around and rushed out, "Lu Zhiyuan." ”
As the words fell, the man's steps stopped, and he also turned his head to look at the woman behind him who was staring at her with burning eyes, and there was obvious indifference between his eyebrows.
"Something?"
The two words Wen Wen Liang seemed to be just asking simply, but Bai Susu knew that he was obviously impatient.
"Don't you have anything to tell me?" Bai Susu originally had a belly of words, and she took those words out again and again in her heart when she couldn't see him, and she even got along with what to say when she saw him again.
But now that he was standing in front of her, she only felt tired, exhausted by the exhaustion that came up from her heart.
Lu Zhiyuan frowned, and his voice was cold, "We have had nothing to do with each other since the day I gave you a letter of resignation, and now that you are by the side of the third prince, I hope you will be good at yourself." ”
"Leave the book?" Bai Susu raised his tone, "Where can I use a decent thing like a concubine, if Lord Lu wants to drive me away, just one sentence is enough." ”
Since ancient times, I have only heard of divorce but never heard of divorce, not that it is not unruly but not so necessary, and concubines are an object and an accessory for men.
Lu Zhiyuan's brows were still furrowed, and he didn't know why he wrote the letter of resignation, probably because he thought in his heart.
Bai Susu, the concubine, has been by her side for a long time, and he used to be pampered, but those were all before he met Princess Mia, which is strange to say, since he met Princess Mia, he began to think about her unconsciously, and even became upset when he didn't see her for a moment.
"I can't help you with this, I can't make her sad now that I have Mia." Lu Zhiyuan apologized.
Bai Susu's body shook, she didn't believe that she heard this from the mouth of Lord Lu, who he had liked for so many years, "You mean you're in love with Mia?" ”
Lu Zhiyuan looked at her, then nodded, "Yes." ”
"What about me?" Bai Susu became emotional, his eyes stared at the man in front of him, "What about me, what am I to you, and what are we in the past?" ”
Lu Zhiyuan remembered all the past, and even remembered the details clearly, but those things were like looking at other people's past, indifferent and numb, and he couldn't stir up the waves in his heart at all, he was just an outsider to look at those memories that were once considered the past.
"I'm sorry."
Bai Susu laughed angrily, "You're right, it's all my wishful thinking." ”
After saying that, she didn't want to stay here for a moment, and hurried away.
Lu Zhiyuan looked at her back, and had a strange feeling in his heart, although he didn't love this woman, he was very irritable to see her so sad, this was a strange feeling, like a prisoner in a cage, eager to escape but couldn't find an exit.
Bai Susu ran all the way with red eyes, and hit something coldly, the bridge of her nose seemed to be broken, and her tears came out of pain.
"Don't be careful." Xiao Pingzhang found the bamboo forest when he couldn't find her everywhere, who knew that as soon as he came over, he saw her running far away, and then hit his head into his arms.
Bai Susu didn't answer his words, but big tears fell down, silently suppressing the grievances that seemed to be swept across the sky.
Xiao Pingzhang just said casually, who knew that she actually cried, for a while, it was only because his tone was heavy, and then he said again, "How old is it, how can you still cry like a child, and you are not afraid of being ugly." ”
"I hurt." She whimpered and spat out two words, and she couldn't stop crying.
Her heart hurts, her nose hurts, she hurts everywhere, she hurts to death, she can't move anymore.
"Where it hurts, it hurts so much, let's go to the hospital." Xiao Pingzhang looked worried, and he pulled her to the hospital.
Bai Susu was pulled out of the Lingering Garden by him and got into the carriage again, and her tears stopped when she walked down, and although her eyes were swollen while sitting in the carriage, she stopped crying.
"I don't have to go to the infirmary, I'm fine." After crying for a long time, her voice became a little hoarse, and she looked sideways out of the carriage, the street was much less crowded, and the street was not as crowded as before.
Xiao Pingzhang handed her water, "Drink some water to moisten your throat, your throat is hoarse after crying for so long." ”
Bai Susu took it and took a sip, and after the water slipped her throat, she couldn't help but be stunned, "This water? ”
"I put honey in it, and you drink sweet water, so I guess I don't feel bitter in my heart." Xiao Pingzhang smiled, suddenly stretched out his hand in front of her, his slender and warm fingers touched her cheeks, and he couldn't help but laugh at her in his mouth, "You can even drink water on your face, you are really worrying." ”
Bai Susu was in a bad mood, Xiao Pingzhang obviously noticed it, and he didn't speak again after the journey, and sent her back quietly.
"I won't go in if I have something to do, if you have something to do, let someone go to the house and send me a message." Xiao Pingzhang sat in the carriage, looking at the extremely ugly face of the woman in the carriage, if it weren't for the fact that he really had something important, he would definitely be with her at this moment.
Bai Susu stood where he was, waited until Xiao Pingzhang's carriage turned around the corner and disappeared before turning around and returning to the house.
When she returned to the house, she asked the people to retreat, leaving her alone by the window in a daze.
Lu Zhiyuan's demeanor and movements today appeared in her mind one by one, she didn't believe that Lord Lu, who was once so good to her, would change overnight, there must be some reason for this.
Could it be that Lord Lu has a hard time, so he pretends to be indifferent to her?
Bai Susu wrinkled her eyebrows and looked out the window, although she couldn't figure it out, she was sure that something big must have happened during the time he hadn't seen Lord Lu.
A few days passed, Xiao Pingzhang did not come to the other courtyard, although no one told Bai Susu what happened, but she also guessed something from the appearance of the people who deliberately walked lightly, presumably Xiao Pingzhang was in trouble.
"Is the third prince in trouble?" After dinner, she looked at Yan Xiu's obviously absent-minded appearance, and asked.
Hearing her ask about Yan Xiu, she didn't hide it, "The palace made a decree a few days ago, saying that His Royal Highness was allowed to think about it behind closed doors in the mansion and not leave the mansion without an edict." ”
Bai Susu was also surprised when he heard this, Xiao Pingzhang had always been cautious, how could he do something that made Emperor Cheng angry, "Do you know what it is for?" ”
Yan Xiu shook her head, "Your Highness has not gone out of the mansion since he came back from the palace, and now we can't find out any news." ”
Bai Susu didn't continue to ask, and she didn't even need to ask Yan Xiu about the news they couldn't inquire, she reached out and covered her mouth and yawned, "It's not early, I'll go back to the house and sleep." ”
Seeing her so cold, Yan Xiu opened her mouth to say something, and finally swallowed it back into her stomach.
Bai Susu went back to the house and fell asleep, and had a dream that night, not exactly a dream, in which she saw that the prince was deposed and the Lu family was implicated in an accident.
When I woke up from a dream, I was scared into a cold sweat.
It was already dawn outside, and the next person reported that Soho had come to see her.
Brother Soho and Wang Dezi have officially recognized each other, and Soho has run to her side a lot in order to repay Bai Susu for helping her find her brother, and sometimes she will give her some food to eat.
"I've made some new flavors of lo-mei, and I've brought them to you to try." Soho sat down and smiled at her.
Zhao Ping's case has been transferred back to Dali Temple for retrial with the help of Wang Dezi, although he has not completely exonerated himself, but Liu Daniu, who was arrested, has already recruited people, and this matter was deliberately framed by Zhao Ping.
Bai Susu was also happy for Soho when she heard the news, she met someone in her previous life and hoped that she could be with Zhao Ping for a long time in the future.
"I'm embarrassed to have you run every time." Bai Susu smiled and asked his subordinates to bring the food box in Soho's hand to the kitchen and save it for lunch.
"You don't dislike me, my craftsmanship is good." Su Ho pursed his lips and smiled, but seeing that there was a melancholy in Bai Susu's eyebrows, he couldn't help but ask, "I see that you seem to have something to worry about." ”
Bai Susu sighed when he heard this, and said with a wry smile, "There have been a lot of worries recently. ”
"Soho, I have something I want you to help with beforehand."
"You just say it, as long as I can help, I will do my best to help you." Seeing her serious expression, Su He couldn't help but put away her smile and looked a little nervous.
Bai Susu thanked her, "You help me ask the prince if something happened when Lord Lu was in the prison." ”
Wang Dezi is the most face-saving eunuch in the palace, and he is also the eyes and ears of Emperor Cheng, and he knows everything that happens inside and outside the palace, so it is most accurate for him to inquire about it.
"I'll go find my brother later, and ask him to help you check." Soho happily agreed.
Bai Susu thanked him again.
Sending away Soho Baisu, the worry in Susu's heart has not diminished at all, but it has deepened, and the scene in last night's dream is still vivid, so that she can't let go of her heart.
Ten days later was Emperor Cheng's 58th birthday. If she remembered correctly, a big event happened at Emperor Cheng's birthday banquet.
The crown prince was deposed.
She didn't know exactly what happened, the prince was deposed very suddenly, and there were different opinions outside, but there was no accurate news.
Bai Susu later heard a rumor, it is said that the prince was drunk at Emperor Cheng's birthday banquet, and he openly molested Emperor Cheng's concubines in the palace.
The Lu family has just been out of danger, and if the prince has another accident this time, the Lu family will inevitably be implicated, after all, the prince's mother, Empress Xiaorende, was the daughter of the Lu family back then.
Bai Susu felt very powerless, she knew that Xiao Pingzhang would do something to the prince on his birthday, but she couldn't reveal the news.
At dinner, the servant happily entered the door and told her that Xiao Pingzhang was here.
Xiao Pingzhang was punished and grounded by Emperor Cheng, and today he came to her side of the courtyard just after the time limit was completed.
"By the way, it will be my father's fifty-eighth birthday in ten days, so I will be busy these days, and I may not be able to come to see you often." Xiao Pingzhang said and sighed.
