Chapter 173: Blossoms
When Ling Li rushed to the Tuyu Courtyard with Man Fu, the grandmother guarding the courtyard was standing outside the gate. She saw Ling Li hurriedly kneeling on the ground and saluting, but Ling Li glared at her and ordered her to be silent. The grandmother guarding the courtyard looked at Ling Li with a confused expression and strode into the courtyard.
It was already dusk, and the light and shadow in the courtyard were dim. Ling Li hurriedly turned the rockery, the stone screen, and found a few more fences, and finally stopped.
In the distance, among the dark green and light greenery of the flowers and trees, the clear moon-white shirt and the bright begonia robe are very dazzling. He looked at it from afar, and although he couldn't hear what the two people standing side by side under the flower tree were saying, just the back of his back made his heart like a knife and a needle.
But just as he was caressing his chest and enduring the pain, she suddenly raised her arms around his waist and put her face into his arms......
At that moment, Ling Li's eyes were about to split.
She is so unscrupulous to challenge his dignity again and again!
And he actually colluded with the concubine behind his back to do such a shameless thing!
"Lord Shen, Your Majesty is looking for you everywhere......" Man Fu followed into the courtyard, and when he saw the two people under the flower tree, he was shocked, and immediately called out loudly.
The two quickly separated. Shen Xun turned his head with a panicked expression. And she, after hearing this call, ran away from behind the flower tree without looking back.
"Calm! You, you——! Ling Li pointed at Shen and spit out these words for a while. No wonder he has never married a wife, no wonder he maintains Shu Mei everywhere, he is a woman who has always coveted himself!
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty!" He fell to his knees calmly. Yu Yao asked him to meet him in the name of Shu Mei, and he wanted to leave when he saw her, but seeing her crying, he couldn't bear it, so he stopped and comforted her. She said that she was going to marry Chen Ping, and she just wanted to hug him, and she was all obsessed with him. Before he could stop it, Ling Li appeared. Now, for the sake of Princess Yuyao's reputation, he must take the initiative to admit this crime.
"You're Dead!!" Ling Li threw a few words at Shen Zhi, turned around and chased under the flower tree.
It's just that there are a lot of forks in the courtyard, and he chased for a while in the stone path and flower trees, and he didn't see the slightest trace of Shu Mei. He was already furious at the moment, and he just wanted to hold Shu Mei and ask: Why do you want to take revenge on yourself so much?!
The matter between her and Ling Zhao has long been a rumor in the DPRK. But he trusted her and never asked.
She pulled and pulled with Bai An several times, and he gritted his teeth and endured it, thinking that Bai An was just a temple man.
But now, she openly hooked the Spring Flower Party at the Flower Dynasty Festival. Introduce the ministers of the previous dynasty, if this matter spreads, how can he be the face of the king of a country?!
After she recovered, she never asked to leave. He was secretly glad that she had figured it out. Now it seems that she stayed only to get revenge on herself!
Ling Li had never experienced such jealousy, and his heart ached.
"Sister Mei, save me, save Lord Shen!"
"What's wrong?" Shu Mei drank too much at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, was a little dizzy, and had been resting in Du Ruoyuan in the afternoon, and as soon as she got up to freshen up at this moment, Yu Yao ran in in a panic.
"I was just talking to Lord Shen in the Tumi Courtyard, and I was bumped into by the third brother. The third brother was very angry, and when I left, I heard him say that he was going to kill Lord Shen...... Sister Mei, what should I do? The third brother may kill me too......" Yu Yao grabbed Shu Mei's hand and said incoherently.
"You just said a few words together, how could he kill someone?" Shu Mei knew that Ling Li was not a person who did not distinguish between right and wrong, even if Princess Yuyao and Shen Zhi met in private against court etiquette, he would just severely reprimand and punish him, why would he want to kill someone?
"I, I couldn't help it, and hugged Lord Shen...... As soon as I hugged it, the third brother came, and I was so frightened that I hurriedly ran away......"
Shu Mei was stunned.
"Niangniang, Fang Manfu just called someone to deliver a message, saying that His Majesty was angry and came to Du Ruoyuan." Autumn Hibiscus hurried in to report.
It seems that Yu Yao and Shen Zhu met by themselves, and he knew it. Shu Mei took a deep breath and said to Yu Yao, "You go to change your clothes and leave through the back door first, and I'll deal with your third brother." Don't worry, I won't let him hurt you and Lord Shen. ”
"Princess, please go with the slave to change your clothes." Autumn Hibiscus called.
After Yu Yao followed Qiu Hibiscus away, Shu Mei took off the hairpin on his head and scattered the bun that had just been pulled up. She sat down at the dressing table, took a jade comb, and re-combed her hair.
She was still thinking about how to deal with Ling Li for a while, and the door was slammed open.
In the rhombic bronze mirror in front of the dressing table, Ling Li's gloomy and dark face soon appeared.
He glared at her.
She looked back at him coldly, too.
The two were speechless for a while. Only the evening wind blew in through the wide open door of the temple, and stirred up the veils in the house.
After a moment, he suddenly leaned down, and Shu Mei instinctively sideways to avoid it, but he only grabbed a handful of gold scissors on the dressing table that he used to cut Huadian.
Shu Mei was surprised, so he grabbed her arm, pulled her up, and forced her to face him. At this moment, the blue tendons on his forehead were exposed, his eyes were red, and his expression was very hideous.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Don't be impulsive! Man Fu trotted to follow, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he paused and shouted.
"If you don't want to die, get out!" Ling Li shouted angrily.
Man Fu was so drunk that his legs and feet were weak, he looked at Shu Mei sympathetically, and immediately turned around and walked out. At this moment, Liu Duzhi is not in the palace, who should he find to help?! He was so anxious that he couldn't do anything.
"Since you hate me so much, why don't you give me a knife, and you will be happy!" Shu Mei thought that Ling Li was going to prick himself with scissors, but he slammed the scissors into her hand.
"Are you crazy?!" Shu Mei was frightened by Ling Li's demeanor, as if his hands were burned, and threw the scissors out violently.
"I'm crazy, driven crazy by you woman! If I don't die, you won't be able to get over the hurdle of the Anyuan Governor's Mansion, right?! ”
Hearing him suddenly mention the Anyuan Governor's Mansion, Shu Mei was also angry, "Yes, I can't get by." ”
"So, you're going to tick it. Invite Shen to take revenge on me?! ”
Shu Mei reacted at this time, and he went straight to Du Ruoyuan angrily, it turned out that he recognized Yu Yao as himself. It's okay to do this, it's better to take this matter on himself than for him to punish Yu Yao and Shen Zhu.
"Yes. His Majesty wants to fight and kill, and the concubines all admit it. Shu Mei raised his chin.
Ling Li looked at her hatefully, and his eyes seemed to be about to tear her apart.
The corners of his eyebrows and lips slowly hooked up a smile. Let him hate himself, so that he will no longer have to suffer because he loves him.
The smile on her lips looked so dismissive. This made Ling Li, who was already jealous and hateful, feel like he was chopped off by a knife at this moment, and he was full of pain and anger.
The next moment, he shoved her against the dressing table and bit her lip hard. After she was stunned, she reacted and immediately tried to push him away. But the harder he tried, the more rough he became. His fingers tightened into her hair, as if to crush her skull, holding her firmly in his palm, gnawing at her as if he were devouring.
