Chapter 439: He's Gone
"Jin'er, do you know why Xigong Lonely married the daughter of a fifth-grade official?" Concubine Qi asked suddenly.
"Didn't they fall in love at first sight? Is there anything hidden in this? Xigong Jin was stunned for a moment, and then asked.
"Hehe, Xigong Lonely is a cunning fox, compared to the brutal Xigong Jue, he is more difficult to deal with." Concubine Qi sneered.
"What does the mother mean by this?" Xigong Jin was suspicious.
"Why did Xigong Lonely get married after the Queen Mother talked to you? Isn't it a bit of a coincidence? If you don't meet sooner or later, at that time? Do you think Hongu will believe it? ”
"What do you think, Concubine?" Although I don't like the concubine to fight for anything, it is undeniable that the concubine's scheming and strategy are first-class.
Otherwise, she would not have lost her life even if she was defeated in the original harem battle, and she actually lived to the present, which cannot but be said, she still has a very good way.
"Quite simply, he's trying to hide from people." Concubine Qi smiled contemptuously.
"Cover people's eyes?" Xigong Jin doesn't understand it again, his relationship with Xigong Lonely is not bad, since An Ran opened the teahouse, they have also mixed together, and they don't seem to notice that there is anything wrong with Xigong Lone.
"Well, I'm not sure if the new force is his person, but he got married just right this time, which just dispelled the Queen Mother's doubts about him, Jin'er, the mother concubine clearly told you that he did this, undoubtedly to clear his suspicions, in this way, all the spearheads are pointed at our mother and son, do you know? In our palace, how many Queen Mother's eyeliners are there? Outside the palace, how many pairs of eyes are staring at our every move? ”
"Huh? We also have the Queen Mother's eyeliner in our palace? This made Xigong Jin a little surprised, because he felt that the servants and slaves in the palace had been working here for many years, if this was the case, wouldn't it mean that many of them were the queen mother's people, and it had always been too terrible.
"Well, it's always been, and I know which one is?" Concubine Qi nodded and said confidently.
"Mother, then I don't understand, since you know everything, why don't you get rid of them? Keeping them under our watch? Nishinomiya Jin didn't understand what the mother was doing.
"Silly boy, if I have nothing to do with them, after all, there are new ones to replace them, and it's the same, in that case, why should I get rid of them, wouldn't it be better to find out the details of them? Knowing oneself and knowing that the other is victorious in a hundred battles, if a group of new people come in, then the palace will have to be re-screened, and it is easy to startle the snake, so why do it? Concubine Qi explained slowly.
After hearing the mother concubine's words, Xigong Jincai suddenly opened, and at the same time understood more deeply that the situation of himself and his mother was indeed not objective, no wonder the mother concubine had been worried, it turned out that the Queen Mother He was such a terrible person?
After that, Xigong Jin still obeyed the words of the concubine, and didn't go out much, even if she went out, it was only a few times occasionally, so that the Queen Mother couldn't catch any tricks for a while?
Bianjing seems to be calm, but this calm always gives people a feeling of suffocation, as if it is the calm before the storm.
On this day, Xigong Jue arrived at the inn where the Xi nobles stayed......
"Mother, are you looking for me?" After receiving the secret letter, Xigong Jue rushed to the scene as soon as possible.
"Yes, sit down." Xi Guiren nodded.
Xigong Jue slowly sat down, and then Xi Guiren shielded the left and right, and said softly: "Jue, this palace wants to see Shen Bilan." ”
"What? Do you want to meet Lan'er? Xigong Jue exclaimed.
"Well, I want to see her, these days, you pick a time to bring her." Xi Guiren said word by word.
"Mother, this ...... Is it appropriate? Lan'er is still not sure which person it is? You just saw her like this, aren't you afraid that she will reveal your identity to the Queen Mother? Xigong Jue reminded cautiously.
"Of course I'm not afraid, this palace has its own way to persuade her, you just have to bring her here, this palace said, we win this battle, she is a key chess piece, I have to meet her in person, every move in the future, we have to think carefully, otherwise...... One wrong move and you lose the whole game. Xi Guiren said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I see." Nishinomiya Jue nodded.
After saying that, he got up to leave, but was suddenly stopped by the Xi noble: "Jue'er, let's go for lunch together." ”
One sentence made Xigong Jue's heart tremble heavily, and the mother concubine didn't seem to have said such warm words for a long time......
Since the death of her father, the mother concubine herself has become more lonely, and she is extremely ruthless in her work, and none of her subordinates are not afraid of her, and the people in the rivers and lakes are even more frightened of this mysterious person of the Ouyang family.
For so many years, there have been crazy rumors inside and outside the palace that the Xi nobles have died or disappeared mysteriously......
In fact, she has always been there, but she has been planning a revenge plan for many years......
Even the naughty and savage Liu Qing is very obedient to this godmother, in the past, when Xigong Jue came, he left when he finished explaining, but now when he heard such concerned words, Xigong Jue was a little moved.
"Okay." He still softened his heart, and he was not willing to miss the warmth of his mother this time.
"Wait until you come back gently, let's eat together, she heard that you were coming, so she ran out early to buy your favorite sauce beef tongue." Xi Guiren looked at Xigong Jue and said.
Suddenly, Xigong Jue's heart fell to the bottom, it turned out that the warmth of the concubine had another purpose, or to cultivate his relationship with Liu Qingqing.
Although he had said many times that he would not be interested in Liu, the concubine seemed to have helped him make a decision.
"Don't bother, mother, I just remembered, there are still some things to deal with, mine is gone." After that, without waiting for the Xi nobles to speak, Xigong Jue resolutely walked out.
"This kid is as stubborn as his father." Looking at the back of Xigong Jue, there was a trace of tenderness in the eyes of the Xi nobles.
"Godmother, where is Brother Jue?" Liu gently went to the street to buy ready-made wine and food and came back, but when he entered the house, he didn't see the figure of Xigong Jue.
But obviously the godmother told her in the morning that Brother Jue was going to stay and eat together? Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone so far to the restaurant to buy delicious food and come back.
"He's gone." Xi Guiren sighed and said slowly.
Liu Qingqing's face suddenly changed: "Why did you leave?" So fast? Didn't you say that you would stay with them? ”
"Well, that's what happened, but he left when he had something to do."
"Huh? But...... Then I bought so many of his favorite foods for nothing. Liu looked at the full things in his two hands lightly, and was suddenly aggrieved.
"Don't be frustrated, gently, the coming day will be long, Jue'er has something to do this time, just come and have dinner together next time." Xi Guiren couldn't bear to feel that Liu was lightly sad, and made up a reason.
"Really? Didn't Brother Jue really leave because he hated me? Since he came back from the border, he hasn't paid much attention to me? I know it's because I hurt her princess who didn't heal, so he hates me. Liu saw lightly that Xigong Jue cared about Ye Anran very much, and that time he caused trouble at the border pass, and the angry Xigong Jue was furious and sent her back to Bianjing.
I still don't pay much attention to her, so she regrets it very much......
