Chapter 92: Praise
Today, Murong Hua and the second prince were studying in the Guozijian together, and then the news of Concubine Xian came, and the second prince was in chaos, so he accompanied his friends to the palace. At the same time, he also has a little selfishness, hoping to take the opportunity to meet Xiaoyu.
I haven't seen Xiaoyu for a long time, and this little girl seems to be more beautiful. Even if his face is not pale, it is a different style from the little fox who often saw Yan Yan with a smile.
When Xiao Yu saw Murong Hua, he rolled his eyes at him in his heart. Why is this Beiqiang prince very idle? Why is he playing gongs in nine out of ten!
Murong Hua patted his friend's shoulder comfortingly, and knew from his friend's expression that the situation was not good. He grew up in the deceit of the Beiqiang Royal Court since he was a child, and coupled with his proton career in the past few years, observing words and emotions has become an instinct like breathing.
The carriage of the Hou Mansion waiting outside the palace gate had already driven over, and Bai Shao and Bai Fu were surprised to see Qi Pan unconscious in the soft pocket. The two of them hurriedly stepped forward and hurriedly saluted the exhausted Mrs. Di and Xiaoyu, and Bai Shao helped Qi Pan up, and Bai Fu carried Qi Pan into the carriage.
When the second prince saw that his wife had arranged to stop, he turned over and arched his hand and said, "Uncle, I'll go to the Hou Mansion to report the news first, the eldest sister is weak, you just come slowly!" After speaking, his legs clamped the horse's belly and rushed out at once.
"Hey, second prince, you wait for me!" , Murong Hua whipped his own horse's buttocks, and also chased after him.
The lady and the little fish got into the carriage and told the groom to drive slowly and without any bumps.
Xiaoyu sat in the carriage and held Qi Pan's upper body obliquely, so as not to bump and turn Qi Pan upside down. Bai Shao and Bai Fu sat on the side, looking worried, but they didn't dare to ask.
The lady leaned back on the carriage wearily, rubbing her temples lightly with her hands.
"I really didn't expect that entering the palace once would cause so many rights and wrongs!" After a long time, Mrs. Fang let out a long sigh!
Xiaoyu hugged Qi Pan and silently distracted. Although she gave Lord Yunhui a lesson this time, she was not happy at all in her heart. It doesn't feel good at all to be nervous and hanging by a thread like this.
When the carriage returned to the house, several warm sedan chairs were already waiting at the second gate, and Mrs. Zhao, who had only been in office for a short time, was waiting there diligently. Zi Yan, Zi Ying and other girls are looking forward to various utensils such as cloaks, cloaks, and stoves.
As soon as the carriage stopped, the two mothers-in-law stepped forward and steadily carried Qi Pan out, and Zi Yan immediately covered Qi Pan with the mink cloak in her hand, and then sent it into the sedan chair. The charcoal basin in the warm sedan car is burning hot, and a thick mattress is spread on the sedan seat.
Mrs. and Xiaoyu got out of the car one after another, and after wrapping their cloaks, they saw that the warm sedan chair was arranged and stopped, and Mrs. Zhao bowed slightly and said, "Hard work!" Zhao Pozi was overjoyed and said, "It should be, it should be."
Xiaoyu sat next to Qi Pan, still holding Qi Pan, so as not to slip. Mrs. took another warm sedan chair and said, "Go directly to Qixia Courtyard!" ”
"Slow down, watch your step, you can't turn it upside down!" Xiao Yu sat in the sedan chair and heard the advice of Mrs. Zhao in front of the sedan chair and behind the sedan chair, and said in her heart that the newly appointed Mrs. Zhao was a clever person, so she had a good impression of her.
settled Qi Pan well, and asked Bai Shao to report as soon as Qi Pan woke up. Then, the lady said to Xiao Yu: "Let's go, Master Hou is waiting for us in Canglangju, and talk about today's affairs!" ”
"Huh? Am I going too? Xiaoyu was taken aback, she could participate in such an important thing at any time.
"Go ahead, only you can explain the matter of the Imperial Garden now!" , Madame said helplessly.
When Xiao Yu and his wife came to the flower hall, the second prince and Murong Hua were already sitting there. When Hou Ye saw his wife coming, he picked up the tea bowl and politely said to Murong Hua: "Prince Murong ......"
Without waiting for Hou Ye to say the words of expelling guests, Murong Hua stood up and patted his head and said: "Oh, Hou Ye, the second prince, I'm sorry, Xiao Wang suddenly remembered that he had asked a friend to have dinner at night, which was rude!" ”。
Hou Ye's face showed a little appreciation, and he said a few kind words, and then sent someone to send Murong Hua away.
"Say, what happened to you in the palace today, you have to tell everything, and you can't miss a single detail!" After sending Murong Hua away, Hou Ye said in a deep voice.
Madame glanced at Xiao Yu and motioned for Xiao Yu to speak first. Xiao Yu organized her thoughts, starting from the few of them leaving Jingren Palace, until she ran back to Jingren Palace to report the news.
It is rare that she is articulate and well-organized, and even the expression and tone of the county lord of Yunhui are imitated vividly. After she finished speaking, everyone in the flower hall fell into deep thought.
"So, going to the Imperial Garden is just a temporary idea for you, and looking at plum blossoms is Jinrong's proposal?" Hou Ye asked while thinking.
Xiao Yu nodded and added, "Later, when we went all the way, most of the flowers and trees in the Imperial Garden had withered, and indeed only those plum blossoms were still visible!" ”
The lady also thought: "That Jinrong has been serving by her side since she entered the palace, and she should be trustworthy!" ”
The second prince shook his head and said: "It won't be Aunt Jinrong, I was brought up by her, if she has any malice, she can attack me back then, why bother framing the eldest sister today!" ”
Hou Ye bowed slightly: "Jin Rong should only go there temporarily." When you get there, you see that the swing is clean? ”
Xiao Yu recalled for a moment and said affirmatively: "At that time, I was still surprised, the swings in Jingren Palace were full of snow, but there was no snow at all on the swings in the Imperial Garden. Later, according to the palace maid beside Yun Hui, it should have been that she had come to clean up, but she just walked away temporarily, and the county lord of Yun Hui arrived after us. “
Hou Ye stretched out his finger and knocked on the arm of the chair, and Xiao Yu noticed that this was Hou Ye's favorite gesture when thinking.
"First, we can conclude that meeting Yun Hui in the Imperial Garden was just an accident!"
"Second, Yunhui actually came for the small fish, and Pan'er just suffered from the disaster of the pond fish!" , Xiao Yu heard Hou Ye say this, and there were countless regrets and guilt in his heart. She regretted that she was impulsive and offended Qi Hui at that time, so that she even affected Qi Pan. If you were to keep quiet and endure it that day, where would there be these things now.
Hou Ye raised his eyelids and glanced at Xiao Yu, his eyes were shining, as if he could see through Xiao Yu's thoughts at once, Xiao Yu touched Hou Ye's eyes, and he actually felt cold in his vest.
She hurriedly got up and said, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have offended Lord Qihui before...!" ”
"Wrong! You're wrong! Xiaoyu, let me tell you, it's useless to blindly endure it, you endured the county lord the day before yesterday, do you think she will let you go from now on? Wrong! Your background is destined for them to look down on you! Don't like you! You're like a loach mixed in with a school of fish, as long as you're in this circle, they won't accept you! Hou Ye's words made Xiaoyu's tears go down, and the grievances she suffered from the county lord of Yunhui Hou Ye actually understood!
"You did well later, Yunhui's itchy powder was ordered by you, right? Be bold and careful without showing any traces, good! I admit you daughter! The praise behind the Hou Ye, even the lady's eyes widened in surprise.
"What, Lord Yunhui's illness turned out to be done by you!" , Madame said in surprise. The tears that Xiao Yu had endured for a long time finally flowed down.
"Father.... Kiss! Father..... Kiss! Thank.... Thank... You! Thank... Thank... You... No... Duty... Prepare me... The gall of .. Big.. Absurd... For! Xiao Yu gratefully said to Hou Ye with tears in her eyes.
Hou Ye looked at her, and a little smile appeared in his eyes: "I praised you, why did you cry." What to cry about, we have to make the enemy cry and laugh ourselves! ”
Madame took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears for Xiaoyu, and said suspiciously: "Xiaoyu, you are in the house all day and night, where did you get that itchy powder?" ”
Xiao Yu sobbed and said, "I'm looking for... Look for... BRICS... Girl... Yes! Madame suddenly realized this time, she is also the quirky little girl with gold bricks, what medicine is there. Speaking of which, it was her Snow Jade Pill that saved Qi Pan.
After analyzing the incident in the Imperial Garden, Hou Ye turned his head to the second prince and said, "Di'er, don't worry. Your mother is avoiding its edge, the prince has a good reputation now, and the queen regards your mother and son as a thorn in her eye. Now that I have retired, your mother will make such a fuss again, it seems that she will be punished, but in fact she will show weakness to the enemy. In this way, the enemy is in the light, but we are in the dark. During this time, you must also keep your light and recuperate, recite poems well, and attract the attention of your father, as long as Jane is in the emperor's heart, none of us will be afraid. However, you have to remember not to talk about political affairs, it is best to keep your ears open to the outside of the window, and only read the books of the sages! ”
After speaking, Hou Ye's eyes flashed and he stared at Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu hurriedly stood up and said, "You adults speak, I, a child, still don't participate!" I... I'm going back to the yard! She heard that there was something wrong with Hou Ye's words, so she instinctively wanted to avoid it.
Hou Ye shouted: "Sit down!" What are you hiding! Now you and I are in the same boat, and judging by your performance today, you are qualified to sit here and listen! "Hou Ye has always regretted that one of his children is too weak and the other is too young.
Now this halfway daughter is quite in line with his heart, I heard Mrs. say that Xiaoyu has repeatedly discovered the conspiracy of the eldest princess, and now I find that this girl is so bold and daring, and brave and strategic. In the future, the hope of the Hou Mansion may still be tied to her!
The second prince snorted: "Uncle, brother of the crown prince, he has always been good to me!" Hou Ye shook his head helplessly and said: "Di'er, do you know that the queen has been guarding against your mother and son, and now that I have lost power, the queen may find an opportunity to make trouble and kill your mother and son." Your mother also saw this, so she took the opportunity to slap the queen in the face, first, to let the queen see her position in Emperor Tan's heart, and secondly, to avoid her edge. In the future, you will come to the Hou Mansion to live temporarily, and you don't care about other things! ’
