Chapter 124: Scheming
By this time, most of the time had passed, Mu Ruoxue had been staying in the prime minister's mansion, and at this time, there was still no news from outside, and no one from the palace was seen, so she couldn't help but be a little worried, and she didn't know how things were handled.
Now that Li Luo has gone to the palace, he wants to take this matter by himself, and then, thinking of the relationship between Li Luo and the emperor, he can't help but be a little worried, and then after thinking about it, he decided to go to the palace to see it in person.
"He Ming, I'm going to enter the palace now, you pretend to be me in the mansion, don't let my father find out that I have left." Mu Ruoxue said to He Ming.
He Ming was a little surprised when she heard this, and said, "Miss, didn't the master tell you not to let the young lady leave again, Miss, go to the kilometer at this time, if the old man knows about it......"
"Okay, Heming, don't worry, I'll be back soon, nothing will happen!" Mu Ruoxue looked at He Ming and said again.
Then, he sneaked out through the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion and went straight to the palace.
Just walked to the gate of the palace, the guards at the gate of the palace saw that Mu Ruoxue's face was a little strange, and Mu Ruoxue didn't care about these looks at them as if she hadn't seen them.
"I'm going to the palace to visit the queen." Mu Ruoxue said to the guard.
The guard didn't say anything more when he heard this, and just got out of the way.
After Mu Ruoxue entered the palace, she walked straight in the direction of Changchun Palace, and if she wanted to inquire about Li Luo's current situation, she could only find the queen mother, she couldn't rush directly to the Heart Cultivation Palace! Thinking of Li Luo, Mu Ruoxue couldn't help but speed up her pace.
Just came to a corner, but Mu Ruoxue stopped, because the conversation between Nangong Jie and Concubine Rou sounded in front of her, Mu Ruoxue couldn't help frowning, how could she meet them here again! Just thinking about the conversation between Nangong Jie and Concubine Rou, the sound of the conversation came from far and near, and it was estimated that Concubine Rou's mother and son were coming to meet her.
Mu Ruoxue looked around, and found that there was a small door next to it, and immediately hid behind the door, if she was facing their mother and son at this time, it would probably not be so easy to get out as soon as possible, and then it would be time to delay.
At this time, Nangong Jie and Concubine Rou came over.
"Jie'er, although we didn't pull Mu Ruoxue to our side this time, but Miss Fu of the Taiwei family, the mother concubine looks very good, so don't worry too much in your heart." Concubine Rou said to Nangong Jie.
Nangong Jie's brows furrowed even tighter when he heard this, and said: "Mother concubine doesn't know, the imperial lieutenant is a faction of the second prince, and now, my father gave Miss Fu to me to marry me on the surface for my good, but in fact, I and the second prince are already incompatible, and with this matter, the suspicion between the brothers will only be greater." ”
Concubine Rou's face was also a little ugly when she heard this, and she said, "Your father is really still suspicious of you, and you still have to be careful not to rush the next plan." ”
Nangong Jie nodded when he heard this.
Then, Concubine Rou sighed again and said: "I thought it would be a good thing for you to marry someone else, but now things have become like this, instead of this, it is better to let you marry Mu Ruoxue earlier, without waiting for the emperor to publicly choose a concubine for you, and then you can follow Mu Ruoxue's clue to continue to track down the Shen family of the four major families." ”
"Mother doesn't have to worry too much, my father has always wanted to find the four major families, Li Luo is the only one who knows the clues, and he is also the most dangerous person, and now he is married to Mu Ruoxue, which is not necessarily a good thing, and the reason why Li Luo is competing with me for Mu Ruoxue is just for that prophecy." Nangong Jie said with a deep face.
"Hey, if we didn't know that Mu Ruoxue was the descendant of the Shen family, why would we bother to put so much effort into it, but now it has come to naught, and it will make the relationship between you and Nangong Yue even more tense, although that Nangong Yue will have to be eliminated sooner or later, but now is not a good time." Concubine Rou said, her face a little melancholy.
"Okay, don't worry so much about the concubine, these things are measured by yourself." Nangong Jie looked at Concubine Rou and said.
Concubine Rou didn't say anything more when she saw Nangong Jie like this, and then the mother and son walked away.
And the conversation between Concubine Rou and Nangong Jie just now was all heard by Mu Ruoxue, and at this time, Mu Ruoxue was very shocked in her heart!
He is actually one of the most mysterious four families, the descendants of the Shen family! These words came out of Concubine Rou's mouth, it should be true, after all, Concubine Rou's mother and son would never go to such great lengths to marry Nangong Jie for the sake of a fake news.
And Li Luo is actually the only one who knows the clues of the four major families! And from Nangong Jie's mouth just now, it seems that Li Luo wants to marry him not out of sincerity, but because of a prophecy! Although she believed in her heart that Li Luo really liked herself, not because of anything else, but when she suddenly knew such a thing, she still had some doubts in her heart and wanted to figure it out.
And listening to the conversation between Nangong Jie and Concubine Rou just now, it seems that the matter of being the fourth imperial concubine has been resolved, and the emperor has also redetermined the candidates for the fourth imperial concubine.
If this is the case, the purpose of entering the palace this time has been achieved, and the outcome of the matter has been known, it sounds like Li Luo has not been punished, and the matter has been resolved peacefully.
What is the prophecy that Nangong Jie just mentioned, which made Mu Ruoxue very puzzled, and then Mu Ruoxue walked outside the palace again, she had to ask Li Luo clearly.
The people at the gate of the palace saw that Mu Ruoxue had just entered the palace and was going out again, not only were they a little puzzled, but it would take more than so much time to go back and forth to Changchun Palace, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Mu Ruoxue didn't think about anything else, after leaving the palace, she went directly to the palace, and the guards at the door of the palace saw that it was Mu Ruoxue who came and didn't stop her at all, Mu Ruoxue went straight to Li Luo's study.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the study, she was about to knock on the door when she heard Li Luo's voice inside, and Mu Ruoxue immediately stopped knocking.
"How are you preparing for my marriage with Ruoxue?" Li Luo asked.
"Back to the prince, everything has been prepared according to the prince's instructions, just waiting for the prince's wedding." Dark Wind Tunnel.
"Your Majesty, we have been getting more and more anxious recently, and our plan must be accelerated." Li Luo said again.
"Yes, don't worry about these things, as long as the prince marries the eldest lady, you don't have to worry about the so-called prophecy anymore." Dark Wind looked at Li Luodao.
When Li Luo heard this, he glanced at Dark Wind with a warning look, and Dark Wind knew that he had said the wrong thing and immediately closed his mouth.
"Don't mention this in front of me in the future! Don't even mention it in front of Ruoxue! Li Luo said, with a slight anger in his voice.
"Yes!" Dark Wind Passage, and then retreat.
And Mu Ruoxue, who was standing at the door, naturally heard the conversation between the two people in the house, and was a little incredulous for a while, and immediately hid aside when she heard that the dark wind in the house was coming out.
After the dark wind came out, she didn't notice Mu Ruoxue at all, and walked away.
At this time, Mu Ruoxue walked out slowly, looking at Li Luo's study, there was a trace of loss in her eyes, and she was still a little sad, and suddenly she didn't want to ask Li Luo anything, so she turned her head and left.
Seeing that Li Luo took himself really just for that mysterious prophecy, did he have any sincerity to himself? This question has always been in Mu Ruoxue's mind, and Mu Ruoxue only felt panicked in her heart.
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mu Ruoxue also frowned, although she was very reluctant to believe this matter, but those words came out of Li Luo's mouth, and she heard it with her own ears, whether she should believe Li Luo or not! For a while, Mu Ruoxue's heart was very entangled.
In the evening of the same day, the palace sent Gonggong De to announce the decree and depose Mu Ruoxue's title of the fourth imperial concubine, but Mu Ruoxue took the decree but her heart was very heavy.
"Miss, the emperor's grace does not blame the eldest lady, I only hope that the eldest lady can be accompanied by the person she likes, the eldest lady, you must not live up to the emperor's grace." Father-in-law De looked at Mu Ruoxuedao, his expression was very intriguing, and his words were also mixed with deep meaning.
"Ruoxue must remember the emperor's grace and will live up to the grace of the saint." Mu Ruoxue said lightly.
I have to say that the emperor's mind is really deep, on the one hand, he is kind to himself, so that he can remember the emperor's goodness in his heart, on the other hand, he is afraid that he wants to win her over, since the fourth prince knows about the prophecy, the emperor must also know, I believe that soon the emperor will intentionally or unintentionally convey to her that Li Luo is not really marrying himself to buy people's hearts.
On the other hand, the emperor gave Nangong Jie's daughter to Nangong Jie as the fourth imperial concubine, just as Nangong Jie said today, let their brothers fight each other first, but the emperor himself only took advantage of the fisherman, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!
Early the next morning, Li Luo came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but was blocked by Mu Hanyun and didn't let Li Luo in.
At this time, Mu Ruoxue had just gotten up and finished freshening up, when she heard the girl report the incident.
Then Mu Ruoxue also went to the front hall, only to see Mu Hanyun sitting on a chair, completely ignoring Li Luo outside the door, after all, Li Luo easily took Mu Ruoxue away, completely ignoring Mu Ruoxue's reputation, and he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart.
And Li Luo was talking outside the door at this time.
"Prime Minister, this matter has been properly resolved, please let me in, please let me in, let's have a good talk." Li Luo said outside the road.
Mu Hanyun's face was not very good, he slowly took a sip of tea, and said: "Although the matter has been dealt with, the prince's method is inevitably a little too radical, and it also has a bad impact on Ruoxue." ”
"Prime Minister, please allow me to go in and explain this matter to you slowly." Li Luo outside the door said again.
"Daughter greets daddy." Mu Ruoxue walked up to Mu Hanyun and saluted.
Mu Hanyun nodded.
When Mu Ruoxue heard Li Luo's voice, she remembered what she heard in the palace yesterday, and she felt a little sad in her heart, and the expression on her face was also a little melancholy.
