Chapter 144: Asking for help from the Seven Princes
Mo Liang returned to the room, Wei Zi noticed that she seemed to be a little tired, so she asked worriedly, "Miss, are you okay?" It looks like he's tired. Have you eaten at night? Do you want me to go to the dining room and give me orders? ”
Mo Liang waved her hand, she actually ate a lot of pastries today, so she was not hungry now, and she didn't have the appetite to eat. Wei Zi saw her sickly look, and she was even more worried. Ever since the young lady quarreled with His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, she could often see the young lady looking so depressed, and she didn't know why, and she didn't dare to say more.
Although Mo Liang said that he didn't want to eat, Wei Zi thought about it for a while, and still went to the dining room to instruct him to prepare a little light porridge. Although Mo Liang doesn't have any appetite, it's just some light porridge, so he should be able to eat it? Wei Zi thought so, she felt that it was not okay to sulk on an empty stomach, maybe it would really drag her body down.
Wei Zi was very worried that Mo Liang was not wrong, but he was a little indignant. She didn't understand, it was already like this, why hadn't she seen any actions from His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince? As long as you explain it to Miss well, Miss is not an unreasonable person. As long as the knot is untied, and the two of them don't make trouble, there won't be so many things.
However, she is just a slave and maid, and she does not dare to say anything more in this regard, that is transgression. However, let her watch like this all the time as a bystander, but she felt that it was not the same thing, and for a while, she really didn't know what to do. Suddenly, Wei Zi thought of someone, and she felt that that person would definitely listen to her, and he was qualified to meddle in this matter.
The person Wei Zi thought of was naturally Chu Xuhua. To say that the relationship between Chu Xuhua and Chu Tingchuan is the best, and although Chu Xuhua usually looks indifferent and cold, Wei Zi knows that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince must be the same as the young lady of her family, who does not seem to be very close to people on the surface, but in his heart he is more gentle than anyone else.
Therefore, Wei Zi just thought about it, she must find a time to find His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and let His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince give advice to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, and solve this matter. She couldn't stand it and the young lady and His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince continuing to fight like this. I feel uncomfortable looking at her, and the young lady still looks tired every day, which is really worrying.
Since he thought of this person who could act as a peacemaker, Wei Zi naturally felt that he had to strike while the iron was hot. She didn't want to continue to watch the young lady and His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince continue to fight coldly, it looked weird and awkward, obviously the relationship was so good before.
Chu Xuhua has been studying the bamboo slips he brought back from Miaojiang these days, and when he saw Wei Zi coming to visit, he was slightly surprised. However, when he thought about it, he knew what Wei Zi's purpose was here. It must be related to the matter between the imperial brother and Mo Liang, judging from the matter of Qin Qi some time ago, I know that this matter will not be so simple.
And he also heard that Qin Qi was assassinated in his room on the night he went home. Chu Xuhua also believed that Mo Liang definitely had the strength to infiltrate the Qin Mansion and take Qin Qi's life.
"I can probably guess what you're looking for me. It should be a matter between the royal brother and Mo Liang? Chu Xuhua raised his eyes lightly and looked at Wei Zi who was standing in front of him. He didn't expect that the slave beside Mo Liang was really loyal to Mo Liang, and for this matter, he would even think of coming to him, the seventh prince of the dynasty.
Wei Zi had long heard that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince had always been extremely intelligent, and among the princes, he was the most appreciated prince. However, because he announced earlier that he would not participate in the intrigue between the princes, he can be regarded as an indifferent to fame and fortune and ignore the worldly people around him. However, as long as the five princes are involved, the seven princes will definitely not stand idly by.
"Could it be that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince already knew about this?" Wei Zi asked with some surprise. But seeing Chu Xuhua, he shook his head slightly, and replied, "It's not like that, it's just that I vaguely felt that this matter wouldn't be so simple." Tell me what's going on, so I can figure it out and see if I can solve it. ”
Hearing Chu Xuhua say this, Wei Zi just told what she saw, although she didn't know a general idea, but just what she saw, she could probably guess the ins and outs? I saw that after Chu Xuhua listened to what she said, he frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "You say, the imperial brother slapped Mo Liang?" ”
Chu Xuhua didn't expect things to develop to this point, he thought that at most it would be a few quarrels, but he never thought that the imperial brother would actually start to beat Mo Liang. This is really going in an unexpected direction.
With Mo Liang's temperament, he will inevitably feel unwilling. Moreover, presumably, the imperial brother is the same as him, guessing that Qin Qi was killed by Mo Liang, so he will question Mo Liang. But the result of this questioning, Chu Xuhua guessed, must not be very optimistic. Otherwise, the imperial brother would not have reached the end, and he would have become angry and slapped Mo Liang.
In fact, for such a thing as Mo Liang killing Qin Qi, Chu Xuhua also felt that it was a little too reckless. After all, Chu Tingchuan just took a break from Qin Qi and asked Qin Qi to go back to his parents' house, and after a few hours, Mo Liang actually sneaked directly into Qin's mansion and killed Qin Qi. This will inevitably have a bad impact on the imperial brother, otherwise the imperial brother would not be like this.
However, it has already happened, and no amount of quarrel will do any good. Chu Xuhua roughly guessed that Mo Liang just felt that he was just a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye, so he didn't have any fault before he got into trouble with the imperial brother. It seems that there is no complete explanation between these two people, and it has been a stalemate until now.
"Yes, actually, this is also what the slave maid guessed. Because His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince came out of the young lady's room, the slave and maid went in. As a result, I saw a palm print on the young lady's face. Forgive the slave and maid for being bold, the slave and maid just thought that except for His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, no one else would slap the young lady like this. Wei Zi said, just kneeling down and lowering his head.
It's already a big rebellion for her to say this kind of thing, where can a slave dare to say that the master is not? If Chu Xuhua felt a little unhappy when he heard this, he could have summoned someone to drag this Wei Zi down to the rod or execute him.
However, Chu Xuhua was not that kind of person, and he also knew that there was nothing wrong with Wei Zi's guess. At that time, except for the imperial brother, there was indeed no one who would slap Mo Liang like that. Even if he could give Lord Shangshu ten guts, Lord Shangshu would not dare to put such a heavy hand on Mo Liang in front of the imperial brother. After all, Mo Liang is still the imperial brother's concubine.
"Well, stand up, I don't mean to blame you. Besides, you have a good reason to think like this, even myself. Chu Xuhua waved his hand at Wei Zi, just to make Wei Zi stand up. After all, Wei Zi didn't do anything wrong, so of course he wouldn't blame Wei Zi. He wasn't the kind of prince who bullied people in the first place.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Seventh Prince. Then, Your Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, what can you do? It's really amazing if it goes on like this. Wei Zi said with a worried face. Chu Tingchuan frowned slightly, and then slowly spoke, "Let me think about it." ”
Chu Xuhua could only listen to a rough idea from Wei Zi's mouth, and the real thing had happened, and it seemed that he would have to ask Chu Tingchuan to fully know. Therefore, Chu Xuhua said to Wei Zi, "You go back first, by the way, in front of your young lady, don't mention that you came to look for me today, otherwise, maybe even I won't have a way." ”
Of course, Wei Zi knew this truth, so she didn't tell Miss the purpose of coming out today. She knows that the young lady's temperament is very stubborn, if she knew that she came to the Seventh Prince to make peace, the young lady would definitely not listen to the Seven Princes.
After Wei Zi left, Chu Xuhua looked at the bamboo slips he had placed on the table. It seems that now is not the time to look at this, if he doesn't come forward to mediate the relationship between the imperial brother and Mo Liang, these two people really don't know when they will be able to achieve positive results. Besides, Mo Liang's temperament may still be the type that can't be found with a dead eye.
Sighing softly, Chu Xuhua felt that this matter was not an ordinary tricky matter. For this kind of emotion between the two, it is not something that his knowledge of Chu Xuhua can solve. Although he is erudite, emotional matters cannot be answered in books. But there was no way, he could only find a way to see if he could solve it.
He Chu Xuhua had never experienced such a thing, let him persuade him, he could only try his best to ponder Mo Liang's thoughts, and then put forward some suggestions, so that Chu Tingchuan could try it. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have anything to do.
Chu Xuhua thought about it for a while, and it was better to go and learn more about the whole thing with Chu Tingchuan, he felt that things must not be as simple as Wei Zi said. Moreover, he had a good talk with the imperial brother, and he could also know why the imperial brother did that at that time and slapped Mo Liang. Although, Chu Xuhua felt that this was not the point of the whole thing.
Chu Tingchuan put away the bamboo slips he put on the table, and then tidied up his clothes, and was ready to go to Chu Tingchuan's mansion to inquire about this matter. After all, he didn't want to see any estrangement between the imperial brother and Mo Liang, which was indeed a not good thing for the imperial brother.
To say, it's really a difficult thing to do, but he Chu Xuhua has no choice but to bite the bullet.
