Chapter 169: Threat

Nangong Cheng is worthy of being the eldest prince, a powerful contender for the throne, even if his heart is in chaos, he is still calm on the surface.

"This matter has to be investigated slowly, Master Hou, I don't know if it's convenient to go and see my aunt?" Respectfully hugging his fist at the Marquis of Zhenbei, Nangong Cheng's attitude was extremely kind.

"This is nature, Your Highness, please." Zhenbei Hou didn't dare to slack off, and personally led Nangong Cheng to Cui's place, leaving Nangong Xiao and his wife to think thoughtfully about today's affairs.

"What do you think he went to see Choi for?" Nangong Xiao blew his nails and blew off the dust that didn't exist on his hands: "The Cui family is just a concubine, and in the past, our Royal Highness the Great Prince didn't visit her so enthusiastically." ”

"His Royal Highness the Great Prince's actions are nothing more than proof of one thing." Dong Liang nodded his cheeks thoughtfully and shook his fingers: "This matter has nothing to do with him, and he just learned about it." ”

Nangong Xiao nodded, and then sighed again: "Then it is very likely to be the prince, I don't understand, the relationship between the eldest brother and the Cui family is inseparable, but why did he get involved with the prince again?" Could it be that you still want to be left and right? ”

This matter is so troublesome, why is there no quiet moment, the two of them glanced at each other, and they were extremely helpless. Dong Li thought about it again and again, and always felt that there was something wrong with this Nangong Fan, so he secretly told the three ghosts that they would have the opportunity to investigate at night to see what kind of medicine was sold in this eldest prince's gourd.

Cui's heart ache because of Nangong Fan's affairs in the past few days, lying on the bed to recuperate, when Nangong Cheng came in, Lan Xiang was holding the medicine and preparing to serve Cui's, and when he saw His Royal Highness the eldest prince at a glance, he quickly knelt on the ground to say goodbye, and his hands were still holding the medicine cup, and a bitter taste emanated from it.

Nangong Cheng couldn't help frowning slightly, and then asked with great concern: "What's the matter?" But is my aunt unwell? "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Cui Shi heard the movement inside, and knew that a man was coming, and scolded inside: "Don't hurry in, don't see a man, you can't take a step, this is still far from spring, if you want to call spring, you have to live a few days" The words were vulgar, and Nangong Cheng, who listened to it, frowned tightly.

Zhenbei Hou couldn't get over his face, and coughed: "What nonsense is it?" ”

Lan Xiang is still extremely loyal to the Cui family, and when she saw that her master unintentionally collided with the eldest prince without her knowledge, she hurriedly helped her defend herself: "Your Royal Highness atonements, Hou Ye atonements, my aunt will be like this because she is in a bad mood these days, and she has been very good to slaves and maids in the past, please atone for your Royal Highness and Hou Ye."

Nangong Cheng clenched his fist with one hand and put it to his mouth and coughed: "It's okay, don't blame those who don't know, you get up, it's better to hurry up and serve your aunt with medicine." "But I don't think much of my mother, my sister, can I make a woman who lost her virginity before marriage in the first place, how smart can I expect her to be? As for the Huang family, who has such a bad brain, she has not been able to do anything to the other party for so many years, and there has been no change in her identity until now, let alone plotting for the position of the prince, if she can't help herself when the time comes, maybe she will have to turn over and help them clean up the mess.

Cui Shi was lying on the bed with a flushed face, his eyes closed, and he heard footsteps coming over, so he grabbed the teacup on the small table next to the bed and smashed it, scolding: "Splashed dead hooves, do you think I'm a bully when you see the uncle being separated?" Dare to snub me like this, I will make you worse off than dead."

Zhenbei Hou blocked the teacup in front of Nangong Cheng, but his clothes were stained by the tea in the teacup, the teacup fell to the ground and was smashed, his face sank suddenly, and he wanted to leave when he threw up his sleeves: "Even if you are sick, you are still so unreasonable, you are not worthy of being visited by others."

Cui Shi heard Zhenbeihou's voice in his ears, and thought he had heard it wrong, Zhenbeihou hadn't stepped into her room for more than a month, how could he suddenly come over? But when he opened his eyes slightly, the back figure who was striding away looked like Zhenbei Hou, and couldn't help but struggle to get up from the bed and exclaimed: "Master Hou"

The Marquis of Zhenbei paused slightly, but he still didn't stay because of this, and left angrily.

She just threw the teacup at Zhenbei Hou? Cui Shi looked at the shattered teacup on the ground, and was a little stunned for a moment.

"Auntie." Nangong Cheng, who was ignored, was helpless, so he had to remind the other party of his existence, no matter how he said it, he was also a dignified son, and he was so snubbed.

The "eldest prince" Cui Shi was startled when he saw his noble nephew, and quickly rolled down from the bed and knelt down and kowtowed: "I don't know that the eldest prince is coming, and the concubine is guilty." ”

Nangong Cheng hurriedly said: "Auntie, what are you doing, you are an elder, isn't this tormenting me?" Hurry up. That being said, it was only after Cui Shi really knelt on the ground that he persuaded him, and stretched out his hand to help him slightly.

Lan Xiang hurriedly helped her master up, Cui Shi was a little out of breath when she moved like this, she was really sick, unlike in the past, she deliberately tricked men to come to see her, these days she was anxious about her son's affairs and couldn't get up from the sickbed, if Lan Xiang didn't help her, she couldn't even get up herself.

Nangong Cheng's pair of charming eyes that resemble Cui Guifei narrowed slightly, Cui's illness does not look like a fake, according to Nangong Fan's habits, when his biological mother is sick, he has to stay in front of the bed to serve the decoction in person, Cui's used to disgust the Huang family with this matter, they are also sons, their own sons are intimate and filial, but it is difficult for Huang's sons to see each other outside for many years.

But his biological mother is now sick like this, but the filial Nangong Fan is nowhere to be seen...... Nangong Cheng stretched out his hand to help Lan Xiang and asked Cui's to go back to bed: "If your aunt is sick, don't move, or rest in bed, has the doctor seen it?" How so? ”

Lan Xiang replied helplessly: "The imperial doctor said, my aunt is just depressed in her heart and can't let go of her anger, and she blows a little wind, which is caused by external evils to enter the body, but the things in my aunt's heart can't be put down, how can this disease be cured?" ”

"You go down first, and His Royal Highness will say a few words to his aunt." Nangong Cheng waved his hand, and Lan Xiang immediately went out respectfully, and brought the door up.

"My aunt got sick because of my cousin, right? There are many words without mistakes" Nangong Cheng took off his robe and sat on the stool next to him: "But does my aunt know that my cousin is amazing, and he is actually involved with the prince of the East Palace, does it mean that I am too useless and want to pick up another high branch?" If my aunt sees my cousin, I hope to give him a few words, it's not a simple matter to change camps, if you don't get it right, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life."

Cui Shi was so frightened that he trembled all over, knelt on the bed and kowtowed repeatedly: "The eldest prince, this is absolutely no such thing, you are the son of the concubine's sister, of course, Your Highness is more suitable for our support, Fan'er, Fan'er He was confused for a while, and accidentally asked someone to take advantage of it, if he knew, he would definitely regret it very much, but you are his cousin, how could he not support you?" ”

It's best to be like this, Nangong Cheng verbally knocked Cui's family, but he had other plans in his heart, no matter what Cui's said, it was necessary to carefully check Nangong Fan, the heavenly family has no family affection, why not this? What if Nangong Fan hugged his opponent's thigh and wanted to deal with himself? It's just a relative, what if you really trust him and you're unlucky? Besides, Nangong Fan's performance is really confusing, the gap between before and after is far from each other

"Since my aunt said so, His Royal Highness will give my cousin another chance." Nangong Cheng got up and stood in front of the bed and looked at the pale Cui Shi expressionlessly: "But aunt should remember, His Royal Highness's patience is not very good, if His Royal Highness really finds out that he is doing something shady behind His Royal Highness's back, don't blame His Royal Highness for being ruthless." After speaking, he snorted in his nose, turned around and left, and smiled at Lan Xiang, who was guarding the door outside: "You are a loyal one, take good care of your aunt, and take good care of your highness." ”

Lan Xiang sent the eldest prince away with a happy face, but when she returned to the house, she saw her master Cui Shi fainting on the bed, and the medicine bowl on one side was knocked over to the ground, and the black medicine juice was splashed on the ground.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Lan Xiang, who was panicked, hurriedly stepped forward to help the person up and pinched the person hard, "Come on, my aunt has fainted, go and ask the doctor to come."

Outside, the little maid who heard the movement ran like a fly, Lan Xiang put her mind at ease and continued to pinch people, Cui's eyes rolled, she woke up with a big breath, her eyes looked at the surrounding furnishings, and she knew that it was in her own room, and immediately patted the bed and cried and grabbed the ground: "I did something wrong to me one by one."

"Auntie, you have to take care of yourself" Lan Xiang waited with her chest and back: "You are the backbone of the uncle, if you fall, won't this motherless child be bullied?" ”

"Where do I care about him" Cui Shi patted his thigh and burst into tears: "He's going to send me to death, what are you doing badly, you want to have a relationship with Donggong, isn't this pushing our mother and son to death?" I'm not alive anymore, what am I doing when I'm alive, don't say anything about being scared, my son is not yet a weapon."

Lan Xiang's heart was beating when she heard it, the uncle was involved with the East Palace? No wonder the eldest prince would visit suddenly, uncle, what's wrong, not to mention the big change in temperament, why do you still do such a foolish thing? Not only was the Hou Ye unhappy to be involved in the royal battle when he did this, but even the Cui family would be dissatisfied, and the aunt and uncle would not please each other when the time came.

Secretly lowered her eyelids, my aunt is becoming more and more uncalm now, and she has lost her patience since she split the family, if she continues like this, something will happen sooner or later, how can she save her life?
