Chapter 369: A Chance Encounter in the Plum Garden
She had already reminded Concubine Rong about Concubine Ruan's secret closeness to the queen, and now Su Xiaojiu came to the door in person, and Concubine Ruan looked like this, could it be that she really dared to attack the imperial concubine
Mo Hong was sleeping sweetly with his little buttocks, but the noise in the courtyard was too loud, he pouted his mouth dissatisfiedly, and his faint little eyebrows were twisted into a ball, and he suddenly pulled the quilt and covered his head and continued to sleep.
Mo Ying was woken up, she rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked out, and saw her mother with a pale face, leaning closely behind the door, her right hand covering her chest, and her eyes were panicked.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
She said that she was about to look through the crack in the door, and Concubine Zhuang hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands and said, "It's nothing, why did Ying'er get up and leave so early, let's go see if my sister has kicked the quilt." ”
Mo Ying was dragged away by her, turned her head curiously to look at the crack in the door, but she couldn't see anything clearly, and said, "Mother, I seem to hear the third brother crying." ”
Concubine Zhuang forced a laugh and said, "It must be your third brother who was naughty and was spanked by your mother Ruan, let's not meddle in our affairs." ”
"Oh."
The little girl nodded obediently, but she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, although the third brother was beaten in the past, he also cried badly, but he could hear that there were many elements of tantrums, and today's crying was not only loud, but also very sad, as if he was very sad.
Lu Cheng was waiting outside the door, listening to the chaotic footsteps inside, and when he looked up, he saw a eunuch rushing out with a woman covered in blood, and after seeing him, he didn't forget to nod his head and signal, "Guard Lu." ”
"What's going on inside whom?"
"Canglian, you send Concubine Ruan over first, and I'll come later."
Su Xiaojiu came out closely, in front of Mo Yao, she couldn't say it too clearly, so she quickly explained the truth of the matter very vaguely, Lu Cheng's face turned pale and white, he never knew that this harem seemed peaceful, but it was full of dangers, if it weren't for Xiaojiu's cleverness, she would be the one who is now addicted
"Then what are we going to do now, do we still go to Qiwu Palace?"
Su Xiaojiu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's wait first, instead of leaving the teacher nameless and leaving the handle, it is better to collect the evidence, and completely bring down Song Minghui in one fell swoop, so that the world can recognize her true face." ”
Lu Cheng couldn't help but look at the little girl in front of him who was barely up to his shoulder, her eyes did not have the confusion and ignorance of most fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls, and that scheming and thoughtfulness made him sigh to himself as a man.
"That's right, Lu Gongzi"
"What"
"Oh, it's okay, I'm sorry to trouble you to run for nothing today."
She wanted to ask Lu Cheng why she hadn't seen Xiao Jing in the past few days, but when the words came to her lips, she realized that it was a little inappropriate to ask him this question, so she changed her words and said, "The slave is ready to go back to return to Niangniang, what does Lu Gongzi have to say to Niangniang?"
"Oh, no, if Miss Su is fine, then I'll go back."
He took a few steps, suddenly looked back at Su Xiaojiu, and said with a smile, "Xiaojing has been sent to the North and South Camps again, and it is estimated that it will take four or five days to come back, so don't worry." ”
Su Xiaojiu didn't expect him to see through his thoughts, pinched his sleeves uncomfortably, and finally thanked him, and then bent his knees and left with Mo Yao.
Concubine Ruan is no longer in trouble, but she needs to recuperate, Concubine Zhuang is already with two children, and she lives in the side hall of Wanyi Palace, Su Xiaojiu is worried that she can't look at Mo Yao, so she simply takes him back to Ronghua Palace.
Mo Yao was still sobbing, at the age of seven, he had begun to understand some things dimly, and although Su Xiaojiu had deliberately covered up what Su Xiaojiu said to Lu Cheng, he still vaguely heard that some of his mother had done something bad to Rong's mother.
He raised his head cautiously, looking at Su Xiaojiu's gaze with a little confusion, he actually wanted to ask, was the injury of the concubine just now caused by Sister Jiujiu
If the mother concubine did something wrong, will Sister Jiujiu hate him because of this?
That Rong Mother Concubine
When we see ourselves, will she still be as amiable as before?
Xiaoxiao's heart was full of uncertainty and fear, and the hand holding Su Xiaojiu couldn't help but tighten and tighten.
Su Xiaojiu felt the nervous little hand, thinking that he was worried about Concubine Ruan's injury, and said softly, "Your Highness, don't be afraid, the imperial doctor said that Concubine Ruan is just an external injury, as long as she cultivates well, she will get better soon." ”
"Sister Jiujiu, do you hate my mother?"
Su Xiaojiu was stunned, "Why did Your Highness ask like this?"
Mo Yao lowered his head a little ashamedly, and said, "Mother concubine, is she really going to hurt Mother Rong?"
She thought that the boy's mind was not so detailed, especially Mo Yao, who was even more arrogant, but she forgot that he was seven years old and had the basic ability to distinguish between right and wrong.
Realizing this, her heart thumped a few times for no reason.
Then he, will he also notice that Concubine Ruan's injury is related to her
The rights and wrongs between adults should not have entangled the children in it, Concubine Ruan's actions are hateful, but in the eyes of the children, even if the mother is not in a thousand ways, she can be forgiven.
But she was different.
If one day, Mo Yao grows up and learns that his mother was forced to die by her, will he hate her?
Seeing that she refused to answer, Mo Yao was even more flustered in his heart, thinking that Sister Jiujiu was disgusted with herself, he stopped, grabbed the hem of Su Xiaojiu's clothes and pleaded, "Sister Jiujiu, I apologize to you for my mother, can you, don't ignore me"
She leaned over and wrapped herself around the little boy in front of her, and replied firmly, "No, my sister will not ignore His Highness, as long as you remember, you must be an honest and kind person when you grow up, you know?"
"Hmm"
Mo Yao nodded vigorously, and suddenly said, "When the concubine is better, I will definitely tell her the same, don't worry, I won't let her do bad things again."
"Your Highness only needs to know that no matter what Concubine Ruan has done, she is a good mother."
Mo Yao nodded, feeling a little better in his heart.
Forget it, the mother concubine did something wrong first, that is, he can't resent the wine sister who hurt her, just like he is usually naughty, doesn't the mother concubine also spank hard
"Sister Jiujiu, let's go to the Imperial Garden to fold a few plums for Concubine Rong's mother."
Mo Yao wanted to make up for his mother's mistakes, he remembered that Rong's mother liked Lamei very much, and hoped that Concubine Rong would be happy to see Hua'er and forgive her mother for the wrong things she had done.
It was rare for him to have this thought, Su Xiaojiu naturally couldn't bear to brush his mind, so he nodded and said, "Of course you can."
There is a plum garden in the imperial garden, this year's cold, disasters everywhere, suffering in all directions, if anyone has benefited, I am afraid it belongs to this garden full of plums.
It is the season when the flowering period is about to end in March, because the weather is still cold, the plum is still full of blooming into a fragrant sea, the flowers are graceful, proudly blooming, and the beauty is like a dream.
However, there are very few people who enjoy the plum blossoms.
First, there has just been an accident in the palace, everyone is not in a good mood, and although the weather has become warmer, the temperature is still much lower than that of the same season in previous years.
So the two quickly picked Manju.
The crisp sound of breaking branches passed through Merlin and reached the ears of a man in brocade, disturbing his appreciation of Mei Yaxing, and frowning in displeasure.
"Sister Jiujiu, you said that Mother Rong would be very happy to see so many beautiful flowers?"
Mo Yao is small, but he holds more flowers than Su Xiaojiu, and he is blocked by flower branches and stumbles.
Su Xiaojiu wanted to share some of the burden for him, but he insisted on refusing, and he had to hand it over to Concubine Rong in person.
She couldn't resist it, so she leaned over and carefully protected it, reminding Mo Yao from time to time to keep her feet under her feet, so as not to fall without seeing the road.
But he didn't want to walk out of the side, Su Xiaojiu was staring down at Mo Yao, maybe the person stretched out his long legs and almost tripped her, but he didn't stop, and walked out of Merlin.
"Hey, what's the matter with you, don't apologize for hitting someone"
The man actually sneered, "I did it on purpose, why should I apologize"
Saying the most scoundrel words in the most natural tone, Su Xiaojiu was unable to refute it.
deliberately wanted to trip her up, so naturally he wouldn't apologize.
Seeing that the person's back was a little familiar, the clothes could be described as brilliant, and the whole body was naked showing the appearance of "I am very rich", Su Xiaojiu searched around in his mind, and couldn't remember where he had seen this back, and estimated which family followed the minister into the palace.
She was in a hurry to go back, and she didn't bother to talk to a scoundrel, so she took Mo Yao and walked to the other side, "There are vicious dogs in front of us, let's go another way." ”
"You slave and maid are so bold and bold, you can enjoy the flowers in the imperial garden, in addition to the royal relatives and relatives, you are the noble and powerful ministers, you open your mouth to scold, are you not afraid of losing your head?"
When the man saw her scolding someone, he was obviously very surprised, and as soon as he raised his eyebrows, he made a gesture and walked this way.
Su Xiaojiu hehe.
The relationship is foreign, and the market has not yet been figured out
Don't say anything about the emperor's relatives and relatives, it is Emperor Yuan He who stands here in person, and she is afraid
was about to reply and taunt a few words, but when he saw the man's face, he shook his head, this man almost looked exactly like Xiao Jing
It's just that the temperament around her body is very different, Xiao Jing is cold and introverted, and belongs to the ascetic department, but this person is full of evil and flamboyance, which inexplicably makes her feel disgusted.
I wanted to leave, but I was really curious about this face, although there are countless people in the world who look alike, but she didn't dare to be careless at all, what if it was Xiao Jing's long-lost cousin or something
So she patiently said, "I don't know what your name is, and where is your name from."
The man leaned on a plum tree and looked her up and down, "Didn't you say it just now, it's not a relative of the emperor, it's a noble and powerful minister, anyway, it's not something you can afford to provoke." ”
The last one dared to drag it like this in front of her, and was slapped a lot of ear scrapers, and it is estimated that the swelling has not subsided yet.
Seeing that he refused to say, Su Xiaojiu didn't bother to ask again, the palace was so big, she didn't believe that she couldn't inquire about the origin of this person.
"Third prince, let's go."
The man was left to hang by her, and he couldn't figure out what kind of routine it was.
The women he has seen can probably be divided into two kinds, one is a nymphomaniac, and when he sees him, he is infinitely shy, twisting with deliberate flattery, and the other is duplicitous, saying disdain, but in fact, he wants to find another way to attract his attention.
This slave and maid really left when she said she was leaving
Anyway, he was bored, so he had the idea of teasing, the man strode forward, blocked Su Xiaojiu's way again, and said, "I am your emperor's honored guest, and I am a little thirsty to enjoy the plum here, you go and help me get some tea." ”
"No tea, no horse urine"
She has hated these self-righteous disciples all her life, and when she saw the banter in his eyes, she couldn't help but be even more unhappy, frowning and saying, "Good dogs don't get in the way, get out of the way if you know each other."
"Hey, little pepper, this king likes it."
The man was not angry but happy, he actually stepped forward, stretched out a finger, and picked up Su Xiaojiu's chin, Su Xiaojiu couldn't hold the flower, he might as well be succeeded by him, a greasy nausea, turned his head to the side, but his ears keenly caught him claiming to be in his mouth.
Ben King
"You are the Seven Kings of Southern Xia, Shao Chongxian"
The man's eyes were even more playful, he looked the thin palace maid up and down, and said with a smile, "It turns out that you know me, then I was pretentious just now, and I really wanted to refuse and welcome."
Rub, where did this person get his confidence?
Or is it that the women of Nanxia are so, which has created a stereotype for him that "as long as it is a woman, she will like me".
Su Xiaojiu almost took a sip on the spot, and said disdainfully, "With your respectful appearance, I want this girl to think about it, but I'm afraid it's not qualified enough." ”
In his heart, he was already in turmoil, and it seemed that Xiao Jing was really Emperor Shao's child
Thinking that Lu Cheng had just said that he was sent out by Emperor Yuanhe to inspect the military camp, Su Xiaojiu affirmed this idea even more, Emperor Yuanhe did it on purpose, he must have done it on purpose
But why would he do it?
deliberately did not let Xiao Jing meet Shao Chongxian, was it to protect or to avoid it
She pursed her lips, no, she had to find a way to contact Xiao Jing quickly.
Mo Yao was already tired of holding the flowers in his little arms, tilted his head to look at Shao Chongxian, and also found the clue, raised his head and said to Su Xiaojiu, "Sister Jiujiu, this person looks like flying"
"Woo woo"
Mo Yao was covered by Su Xiaojiu's mouth, and pouted aggrievedly, this person looks like Uncle Flyer, why didn't Sister Jiujiu let him say it
"Your Highness, go quickly, the slave has something to go out"
Shao Chongxian is eyeing the throne of Southern Xia, if she knows that Xiao Jing is still in the world, and she doesn't know what to do, she can't expose Xiao Jing.
The flowers in her arms had fallen to the ground, so she took the flowers in Mo Yao's arms and led him back quickly, Shao Chongxian was ignored by her, but he was not annoyed, he came to Dayuan for something important, and the teasing just now was also a whim, seeing Su Xiaojiu leaving, he was also very bored, and walked away.
There were too many things happening today, Su Xiaojiu didn't have time to sort it out properly, so he hurriedly took leave from Concubine Rong, and prepared to go to Lu Cheng outside the imperial study to inquire about Xiao Jing's specific location.
Unexpectedly, he was told that Lu Cheng was suddenly sent out of the palace by the emperor.
After thinking about it for a while, she figured out the joints, Shao Chongxian came suddenly, and Yuan and Emperor Ding were also afraid that Lu Cheng would be suspicious when he saw his appearance, so he kept people far away.
In this case, as long as Shao Chongxian does not leave the abyss, I am afraid that the two of them will not be able to come back for a while.
