Chapter 1035: Good Expected
Mao Tongtong's worries are not wrong at all. The day after Pomegranate and Fleur got married, the day after they returned to see Guo Luoluo, the servants of the main courtyard found that she had gone at some point.
Maybe it's night, maybe it's early morning. In short, she went silently, and even the girl who kept vigil did not hear any movement. If it weren't for the fact that it was late in the morning, there was no movement on the bed, which made the girl feel that something was wrong, but I was afraid that she would not be discovered.
When the news was delivered to Yile Yuan, Mao Tongtong was stunned for a while and didn't come back to his senses.
Although she was mentally prepared, she still felt sudden.
The eighth master went to the palace to go to the morning court at this time, and he didn't know when he would come back. And Nian's has just entered the mansion, of course, such a major event has to be handled by Mao Tongtong.
"Let Gonggong Xu in the front yard go to the gate of the palace to guard, and ask him to come back as soon as he sees Lord Belle." Mao Tongtong commanded first.
"Yes." Wu Youcai responded, and went to the front yard.
"Let's go, let's go to the main courtyard." Mao Tongtong got up and said.
"Master, Fu Jin died of tuberculosis, you better avoid it." Qingzhu reminded.
"I can't help but go at this point." Mao Tongtong said: "I don't go into the house, I watch in the yard." The main courtyard has to be held by someone at this time. ”
"That's what the master said." Mama Luo nodded, "The slave maid will send the things prepared before to the main courtyard." ”
Mao Tongtong nodded, and the group went to the main courtyard.
The main courtyard is really in chaos now. After the pomegranate and hibiscus were gone, the newly raised roses and Yingchun couldn't be stabilized at all, and Guo Luo Luo was grounded for so long, the minions in the courtyard had long lost their loyalty, and they didn't bother to pay attention to Guo Luo Luo's corpse at all.
When they saw Mao Tongtong appear at the gate of the courtyard, everyone was shocked. Because she hadn't been in the main courtyard for a long time.
Although she has always been in charge of the house, since Guo Luoluo's illness, the eighth master has come to everything, and she has never appeared again. Everyone can guess that this must be because the eighth master took care of her pregnancy and was afraid that she would be sick. But I don't want to show up when she is so unlucky now.
"The slave asked for peace for Mao Fangfujin." The minions in the courtyard were busy saluting.
Mao Tongtong looked at the gloomy courtyard, couldn't help frowning, and said, "Which ones are serving by Fujin's side now?" Come and talk back. ”
"It's two slaves and maids." Rose and Yingchun stepped forward.
"Somebody's going to bring a chair for Fang Fujin." Qingzhu looked around.
"The minion is going to move." A little eunuch hurriedly answered, and quickly moved a Taishi chair for Mao Tongtong.
Mao Tongtong sat down in the middle of the courtyard, looked at Rose and Yingchun, and said, "When Fujin left, you didn't notice it at all?" ”
Rose knelt down with a puff and prostrate on the ground, "Last night was the night of the slave and maid. When it was almost time, Fu Jin also drank water once because of coughing. There was nothing unusual about it, and I drank the water and went to sleep. The slave was still afraid that Fu Jin would cough again, so she stayed for about half an hour, and only lay down when she saw that there was no movement. At three o'clock, the slave woke up once and didn't hear Fujin coughing. At that time, I still thought that Fu Jin slept well tonight, and he didn't wake up once an hour like usual. Until, until the hour passed, Fu Jin did not wake up, and the slave maid felt that something was wrong. Because Fujin will be called at this time on weekdays. ”
Although her days of serving in the main courtyard are not short, the days of serving Guo Luoluo are not long. Guo Luo Luo went there again during her vigil, so he scared her out of sight. Her body was shaking as she said this. When he was about to finish, his voice choked.
In this way, Guo Luo Luo is likely to be gone by the time he is in Yin. Mao Tongtong glanced at the door of the main house and couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
However, Guo Luo Luo was able to walk silently, on the other hand, she may not have suffered much when she was dying, which can be regarded as a kind of luck.
"Go and clean up Fu Jin." Mao Tongtong said: "Give her a good dress and get dressed." ”
"Yes." Rose and Yingchun breathed a sigh of relief at this time and slowly stood up.
In the Qianqing Palace, the situation of the eighth master at this time was not good.
The prince suddenly fell seriously ill, and the eldest brother reported that he had used the technique of disgust with victory, saying that he had specially collected information in this regard.
Although Kangxi didn't believe it immediately, he already doubted it. Now let the eighth master come up with evidence to prove that he did not harm the prince.
Except for the ninth and tenth masters, no one stood up to speak for the eighth master. Even the fourth master, who has a good relationship with the eighth master on weekdays, remained silent.
When he went to court, many courtiers who showed appreciation for the eighth master on weekdays also kept their distance from him as if they were suspicious.
"Big brother." The eighth master called out to the king of Zhijun, who was walking in front.
King Zhijun stopped and looked back at him, and said expressionlessly, "What's the matter with the eighth brother?" ”
"Big brother, you really don't have any love at all." The eighth master smiled mockingly, and said: "Anyway, I have been under the knees of Concubine Hui for a few years, it turns out that in the heart of the eldest brother, my younger brother is just a chess piece!" ”
"Where did the eighth brother say this!" King Zhijun said unhurriedly: "I'm just worried about the second brother's body, and I said what I knew. Besides, I didn't say that the eighth brother did it. It's just that the eighth brother once collected information on this. ”
"Heh, it's the first time I've found out that my eldest brother's eloquence is so good!" The eighth master smiled.
Isn't this just called the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind? He has been fighting openly and secretly with the prince, but he let the king of Zhijun take advantage of the loophole!
In other words, his feelings for King Zhijun in his heart are still a little different from those of other brothers. So I've been merciful.
But he didn't want to, he was merciful to his subordinates, but the king of Zhijun made a dead hand!
If this matter is really done by him, then he won't want to fight for that position, and even this Baylor Lord now doesn't want to be it! It's possible to be under house arrest or jail!
At this time, the ninth master and the tenth master were standing beside the eighth master, looking at the slightly smug eyes of the king of Zhijun, they couldn't help but change their faces in anger. But the gate of the Qianqing Palace is not a place to quarrel, and the two still endured it and didn't speak.
"Eighth brother, how many more years will I eat salt than you." A smile tugged at King Zhijun's lips, and without saying anything more, he turned around and strode away.
"Starling, big brother is really insidious!" The tenth master finally couldn't help but say.
At this time, the fourth master walked out, and the ninth master glanced at him, snorted coldly, and sneered: "Brother Starling, you can only see who is really good with you at the critical moment!" ”
The fourth master paused, glanced at the eighth master, the ninth master and the tenth master, did not refute a word, but walked straight forward.
The eighth master pursed his lips, looked at the back of the fourth master, and said to the ninth and tenth masters: "Let's go, this is not the place to speak." Go sit with me. ”
