Chapter 165: Here He Comes (3)
Palace
"Mother, it's already time to open the court,... Can the royal brother stop him from entering the court? ”
The ninth princess Feng Shuya sat on the soft chair of the Jintuan in a gorgeous dress, leaning on the chair with one hand and holding the fan with the other, her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and her eyes were full of worry.
Concubine Li looked at the ninth princess with grace leaning on the couch chair, lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Don't panic, your imperial brother said that he would do his best." ”
The other palace people had already dispersed, and only two personal palace maids were left in the house.
"Mother, if the royal brother can't stop him..."
Concubine Li frowned slightly, "You are a princess, your status is noble, and you are still worried that the marriage will not work?" Your imperial brother has already reminded you that Mei Shijiu is not a good match, you have to listen, but now you have fallen into it, Ya'er, you are a smart person, you should know what your imperial brother means, he has spoiled you since childhood, if it is possible, how can he not help you. ”
This daughter is good at everything, but this one is too stubborn.
Mei Shijiu is indeed outstanding, but he doesn't want to be a colt, this is the dead knot.
Feng Shuya pursed her lips and said with a bit of stubbornness: "Mother, I am a princess and my status is noble, but so what?" I can't marry anyone I want to marry, my daughter just wants to see if the woman in his mouth is the adopted daughter who the Yun family took back. ”
It seems that the palace outside has also heard about it.
"Ya'er, this palace thinks that you have changed a lot of temperament over the years by the side of the Queen Mother, hey! You stubborn character doesn't know who you look like, he has no intention of marrying you, he doesn't want to be a colt, who he wants to marry, why do you care? Concubine Li sighed and persuaded her baby daughter bitterly.
"Mother, even if Mei Shijiu doesn't want to be a concubine, she won't marry a woman casually."
Feng Shuya watched the fan in her hand turn gently, she just wanted to see what was so special about that woman named Xuexue.
"In the end, you are still unwilling, the whole capital knows that you like him Mei Shijiu, if Mei Shijiu finally marries a woman who is not on the stage, not only slaps you in the face, but also slaps the royal face, you can rest assured, your imperial brother's bureau, that woman may not be able to escape."
Concubine Li felt that her daughter should not be distressed about a woman who could not be on the stage, let alone compare herself with the other party.
"What if Mei Shijiu helps her? The layout of the imperial brother is indeed interlocking, and it is a dead end, but Mei Shijiu is very smart, he may not be unable to see it. ”
"If Mei Shijiu helps her... You're going to die. ”
Concubine Li looked at her daughter holding her head and rubbed her eyebrows and continued: "This time, we were accidentally calculated by Duan Guifei, if it weren't for your imperial brother who cautiously found that the jade bottle placed in front of the shrine was wrong, it is really hard to say what the situation is now, your imperial brother's arrangement is not only for the love of your children..."
"Isn't it just a few white jade bottles or something, what if you let your father know? Besides, it was Concubine Duan who deliberately framed us. ”
"You...!"
Concubine Li took a deep breath and patted her chest, "You fool, do you know why your imperial brother said that you are not a good match for Mei Shijiu?" Because you are too stupid, even if you marry Mei Shijiu, I am afraid that it will be useless to your imperial brother, but those jade bottles are used for the spring sacrifice to the sky, let us baptize in front of the Buddha, the jade bottle is broken and broken, it is unlucky, who is unlucky? Your father? Dayuan? It's neither, it can only be our mother and daughter......"
Concubine Li doesn't want to say any more, I'm angry!
Obviously not stupid, why is it that when it comes to Mei Shijiu, it seems that he is missing a tendon.
Indeed, being able to please the Queen Mother, standing out among the princesses, and being stupid is just because of his own marriage, but in front of his own mother, which puts away his usual caution and cleverness.
"The mother concubine said this, and the daughter knows it!"
"I know you still say!" Concubine Li glared angrily.
Feng Shuya lowered her eyebrows to hide the grievances in her eyes, did the mother concubine and the imperial brother really spoil her as they said?
They just saw clearly that Mei Shijiu was uncontrollable, or that the Mei family couldn't control it, so they didn't really plan for her, only her imperial grandmother was looking forward to her marrying Mei Shijiu, and the mother concubine and the imperial brother hoped that she would marry someone who would be beneficial to them and could help the imperial brother fight for power and throne in the court.
The harem and the court seem to be distinct, but they are actually closely connected.
As soon as Chu Xue and Yun Yinling finished breakfast, Mei Shijiu suddenly came.
"Is the ninth prince available for dinner?"
Looking at the little woman who calmly asked if she was eating, Mei Shijiu was stunned for a moment, and then her eyebrows bent.
The little girl is so smart! Is this figured out?
Mei Shijiu gave a look, and Chu Xue understood, no wonder Jiu Gongzi came in a hurry this morning, it turned out... It's all there.
How many eyeliners does the Nine Princes have in this capital? What else could be hidden from him in this capital?
Actually, Chu Xue really looked at it this time, Mei Shijiu just made people stare at it because she was worried about her, so she knew about it.
"You girl, it's so early, you must have no meal, Jiugongzi, please sit down, I'll go to hot porridge and get some jujube cake."
Once born and twice ripe, Mei Shijiu has come so many times, Yun Yinling is not surprised.
It can be seen that if these two children want to talk about things, it should be related to what the six girls and Chang Bo said before, so she won't bother them to talk about business.
Yun Yinling took Mother Li and they went out under an excuse.
"Isn't the ninth prince supposed to be... Entering the palace? ”
"Tell me, how did you figure it out?" Fortunately, she was smart enough, and she knew how worried he was along the way.
So straightforward?
Chu Xue poured a cup of hot tea for the other party and handed it over, "Then did the Ninth Prince also tell me, how did you know?" ”
"Don't be angry, I'm afraid that King Su will not be good for you, so I asked Aqing to arrange for someone to pay more attention to your shop and near the house..."
Originally... That's the case, now, it's so embarrassing that it makes the first snow.
And only some.
"Thank you Jiugongzi, since Jiugongzi is here, it's just right, help me take a look at this."
Chu Xue took out the token and handed it to Mei Shijiu, and told me what happened last night by the way, "... Early this morning, before it was cold, I heard that the jade bottle was stolen from the palace, but I was so frightened that in a panic, I almost made a mistake. ”
"So... You knew that the other party was the king of Yue, and you extorted him a thousand taels? ”
Mei Shijiu took the token and asked.
Aqing has been petrified.
Hatsuyuki nodded, that's not the point.
"Ahem... Now tell me, why aren't you afraid now? ”
"Because that jade bottle is not a stolen jade bottle in the palace at all, but King Yue is really enough... Yin, he must have known that I had some friendship with your ninth prince and the fifth prince, so he deliberately let me see the flying fish talisman, if I guessed his identity, I thought that I might go to the ninth prince or the fifth prince, as for his plan for this step, I haven't thought about it for the time being, there must be a big pit, so I didn't think about it, thinking about waiting until dawn to say, but the dawn heard the news, panicked at first, and then figured it out after thinking about it carefully. ”
"Oh, go on." Looking at Chu Xue's bright eyes, Mei Shijiu couldn't help but want to listen.
