Chapter 67: Homecoming

"The heart of defense is indispensable?"

Mama Yu helped the Queen Mother, who had just had dinner, to the dormitory, and repeated puzzledly.

She just mentioned why the Queen Mother always refused to instruct Murong Xi to assist the Queen Mother in secret, and the Queen Mother's answer made her even more confused.

The Queen Mother did not speak, quietly staring at the snowy night of Cining Palace, bowing slightly.

This side of the world is what she has gained by working hard for half her life.

finally survived to the days of sitting and enjoying its success, and killed Jiang Huaiyin who held the flying fish order halfway!

The Queen Mother questioned the first emperor countless times during the memorial service.

The husband and wife have been intriguing for most of their lives, and since they have achieved bliss, they should give up the past.

Why did he even die in the end, leaving her with a scourge?

But this scourge is still his own flesh and blood!

For a moment, the Queen Mother was in a trance, feeling too tired and wanting to let go.

But as long as she thought that the Flying Fish Order was left to Jiang Huaiyin by the first emperor, she knew that she couldn't fall yet.

She had no doubt that one day if Jiang Huaiyin sat in that position, the Cining Palace would be no different from the Cold Palace.

The more perseverance there is, the more I feel that Murong Xi's chess piece can't be spent!

Don't use it without complete certainty!

Mama Yu sensed that something was wrong with the Queen Mother, clasped her arm, and asked with concern: "Are you okay with the Queen Mother?" ”

The Queen Mother shook her head slowly, her cloudy gaze became clear, "It's okay, the mourning family thinks that although the mourning family grew up, the true thoughts in her heart have never been shown." How many days have you been watching, have you noticed a difference in her? ”

"If you want to say that there is, there is really a thing." Mama Yu carefully considered the words and told the Queen Mother that when the queen brought the concubines to visit the Queen Mother, Murong Xi reprimanded the concubines and palace maids.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, and her eyes changed suddenly.

"That's what Ji'er really said?"

Mama Yu nodded, and she didn't feel that it was inappropriate, but she was just a little surprised by Murong Xi's behavior.

"Perhaps, the princess is just worried about the queen mother's body?"

"You, you're an old man in the palace, and being by the side of the mourning family can be regarded as 'experienced in a hundred battles'." The Queen Mother hooked her lips and sneered, "There is nothing wrong with Hi'er's actions, but imagine it, if any palace maid who was not long-eyed dared to refute her at that time, what would happen to that palace maid?" ”

"Naturally, there will be punishment." Mama Yu replied without hesitation.

Queen Mother: "What about after that?" What about the master of the palace maid? ”

"Your Majesty has no way, and he deserves to be punished together." Mama Yu, as the mother in charge of Cining Palace, analyzed the events of the day.

The Queen Mother said: "Who will be punished?" ”

Mama Yu's expression paused slightly, "Shouldn't the Queen Mother be the master for the princess?" ”

"See." The Queen Mother shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Even your old man in the palace for decades has never suspected that Ji'er is making a big fuss and borrowing a knife to kill people?" ”

"This-" Mama Yu realized it later, and the hairs on her back stood on end.

Truly.

At that time, the noise in the palace, Mama Yu also heard it in her ears, but she didn't notice anything wrong.

The movement in the hall is much louder than outside, and the noise outside can't disturb the Queen Mother at all.

Murong Xi's Liwei, is it a coincidence, or is her true nature exposed?

The Queen Mother's face sank, "Xi'er's matter is not in a hurry, just wait." ”

"Yes." After Mama Yu figured it out, she also thought that this matter should not be rushed.

It is necessary to probe Murong Xi again, and it can be implemented for talents.

-

Although Murong Xi rejected the palace all day long, and returned after the separation, that kind of comfort was something she couldn't ignore if she wanted to.

At least, not much more comfortable than the palace and the imperial palace.

After taking a hot bath comfortably and changing into fragrant clothes, Murong Xi swaggered into the bedroom to prepare for bed, but the egret stopped her with an unnatural look.

"Princess-just when the princess was bathing, the prince sent Yelan guards to invite the princess-"

"Huh?!" Murong Xi said that she always felt that something had fallen behind, and when she was mentioned, Murong Xi suddenly realized.

She actually forgot about Jiang Huaiyin!

Although he has been in and out of the palace and returned to the house, he does not have to report to him.

Butβ€”

Murong Xi couldn't remember anything wrong for a while, so she picked up her cloak and went to the Dawn Pavilion in a daze.

The Dawn Pavilion was as deserted as ever, and when Murong Xi walked in, Yelan was instructing his subordinates to prepare meals.

Murong Xi asked Ye Lan, "What time is it, and the prince hasn't eaten yet?" ”

Ye Lan arched her hand at Murong Xi, and said indescribably: "My subordinates see the princess, the prince has just returned home." ”

"The prince is really in charge." Murong Xi still hadn't noticed what was wrong, and smiled dryly.

Ye Lan pursed her lips and involuntarily called out to Murong Xi, "Princess." ”

"Huh?" Murong Xi withdrew one foot from stepping into the door and tilted her head to stand in front of Ye Lan.

"During the time that the princess was in the palace, the prince has also been in Yuquan Palace." Yelan said quietly.

Murong Ji blinked, "Well, then what?" ”

And then what?

Yelan frowned, his words weren't obvious enough?

"Today, after the prince learned that the princess was out of the palace, the prince rushed back to the palace non-stopβ€”β€”"

Straightforward enough, right?

Murong Xi touched her chin and nodded thoughtfully, "Is there not enough medicine?" ”

When he first went to Lishan Palace, Murong Xi was worried that Jiang Huaiyin would stop taking medicine.

delaying the illness is not only his business, but also a huge stumbling block to her peace plan.

After returning to Beijing, Jiang Huaiyin went to the palace to be busy again, and Murong Xi was very sure that what Yelan wanted to talk about was detoxification.

Yelan: "......"

"The prince has been taking medicine on time."

"Is that a needle?" Murong Xi raised her eyes, "The Yelan guards don't know, the needle is used as an aid to the medicine, and the most important thing is-"

"Princess!" Ye Lan couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a sigh: "The prince and the princess entered the palace together, and they should leave the palace together, why did the princess leave alone but tell the princeβ€”β€”"

Figuring out the master's mind, it's really hard to die Yelan.

What made him feel even more headache was Murong Xi's reaction!

Murong Xi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud: "Haha, the Yelan guards shouldn't think that the prince is waiting for me in Yuquan Palace, right?" ”

Yelan nodded.

Murong Xi smiled even more happily, raised her hand and patted Ye Lan's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "You have served the prince for many years, but you don't know what he thinks?" How could he be waiting for me! ”

Ye Lan opened her mouth to retort: "The princess doesn't knowβ€”"

"Yelan!" Jiang Huaiyin didn't know when he stood in the door, looking at the two of them coldly with his hands and arms folded.

Ye Lan subconsciously took a step back and bowed: "Lord Wang." ”

"Lord Wang, you came just in time." Murong Ji smiled and blessed her body, but unconsciously, she didn't realize that her fear of Jiang Huaiyin was gradually decreasing.

"The Yelan guard said that you have been in the palace for many days to wait for me, you can tell him quickly, why you stayed in the palace."

Yelan: "! ”

"When will it be the turn of others to speculate on the thoughts of this king?" Jiang Huaiyin suppressed the emotions in his heart, his voice was low, and he couldn't distinguish between joy and anger.

"The subordinates are guilty! Please punish the prince! Feeling the sudden overwhelming coldness, Yelan was even more sure that the prince was waiting for the princess in the palace!

"It's just a few jokes, don't shout and punish at every turn." Murong Xi smiled and persuaded Jiang Huaiyin.

Jiang Huaiyin's cold eyes suddenly swept towards her and fixed on her face.

Seeing that the blood all over his body was cold, Murong Xi closed his mouth in discouragement, and admitted his mistake respectfully, "The prince is angry." ”

"Come in!" Jiang Huaiyin ordered lightly.

Murong Ji did so.

As soon as the front foot stepped into the door, a strong wind suddenly swept by him.

Then came the sound of the door slamming shut.

The sound of "bang" is shocking.
