Chapter 29: Eldest Princess Hyemin
When Jinli returned, Nanxing had already changed into a new undershirt.
Standing by the window, looking at the pool of dirty blood on the ground surrounded by several poisonous insects on the platform, sucking wildly, and smiling slightly.
These poisonous insects were raised by Master in Danxia Mountain, and gave them to her for self-defense the night before she returned to the city.
On the night of Ziluo's injury, she kept them loose around the boudoir to prevent the Golden Eagle Guard from secretly attacking.
"Miss, didn't you say you wanted to sleep a little longer? Why?
Jinli saw her standing quietly by the window, stretched out her hand to roll up the curtain on the bed, and gossiped, "When the slave maid just came up, she saw Mama Li going out in a panic, and she must have sent silver to her son." β
"Mama Li?"
Thinking of Mama Li's appearance and the same as before, she turned around and sat on the dresser, casually running the hair on her chest, "Jinli, is there any difficulty in Mama Li's life?" β
"Since Miss Da went to Danxia Mountain, she went to Qingxi Hall to maintain the old lady's pine and cypress bonsai. But after only staying for three years, he was transferred to the Huanyi room by his wife. Until you come back,"
The movements of Jinli's hands were very sharp, and the words on her lips did not stop, "Her son is not a serious businessman and is a gambler." Every time I lose money, I ask Mama Li for it, and if Mama doesn't give it, she will be beaten by him very badly. The lord and the lady sympathized with her at first, and always gave her more money. But after a long time, it's just, Mama has no choice, only to save money by herself."
Nanxing listened to Jinli's words and asked suspiciously, "Didn't Mama Li report to the official?" Since she doesn't want to take care of her son, why don't you just live in the house and don't see him? β
That being said, the man had been mingling with the scoundrels on the street all day. Mama was afraid of causing trouble in the house, so she sent him money on time every month."
Jinli walked to Nanxing's side and picked up the comb, "Madame asked her to go back to the Star Picking Pavilion to serve Miss, because she felt that she was closer to Miss and knew Miss's preferences in terms of food." Sister Jinhe also specially instructed the slave maid two days ago to try not to let Mama Li go up to the second floor to serve closely."
Nanxing smiled disdainfully, "It's just a gambler." When I have the chance, I'll meet her."
Mu Cui and Mu Bi also got up, and Ziluo was much better and could get out of bed and walk.
Nanxing looked at her worried appearance and rolled her eyes, "Last time I told Brother Tianshen that I wanted to tell Changgui, I don't know if he conveyed it?" In the past few days, I don't know what has become of my Nebula Medical Center? Purple Radish, would you like to go with me? β
"Really? Can I really go? Ziluo almost jumped for joy.
"Of course you can, but you can't touch the water with the wound, and you can't stay too long. Your injury was supposed to lie on your stomach for a few days, but I checked it carefully, and you recovered quickly, and there was no problem walking, but you couldn't use force! I'll go to King Ning's Mansion to give the needle, and I'll have to pick you up. β
Nanxing secretly scanned Ziluo's body with the Cloud Realm, the wound was basically healed, and the stitches could be removed in a day or two, and the body was basically back to normal.
"Thank you, Miss!" Zi Luo's heart was moved.
"After lunch, Mu Bi stayed in the pavilion to take care of the house, and Mu Cui Ziluo followed me to the hospital and Ning Wang's Mansion!"
"Yes, Miss," the three replied in unison.
When Jin Qing came to the Star Picking Pavilion to make a report, Nanxing and Mu Cui were walking around the side courtyard of the Star Picking Pavilion.
No one has come in this courtyard since it was cleaned up by Mama Li.
She wanted to find memories of King Ning here, but after turning around for a long time, she didn't see any clues.
"Mu Cui, how long have you been by King Ning's side? Do you know, how did he get into the Seven Misshapes? β
"The subordinates don't know either, but I remember that His Highness couldn't afford to be sick when he came back from the palace that year."
"Coming back from the palace? But at the gate of Baohui Pavilion? Nanxing's heart moved.
"The subordinates don't know where they are in the palace? My brother didn't say anything, butγ"
Mu Cui seemed to think of something, and whispered softly in Nanxing's ear, "However, when His Highness came back, he was wearing women's clothes, or my brother changed it for him."
I see! No wonder he thinks I poisoned him? But it was just the two of us, he was poisoned, where did I go? Nanxing frowned and thought, even feeling that his head was about to crack, but he didn't think about it.
"Miss, the old lady is going to take you to the eldest princess's mansion, you hurry up and clean up," Jin Li took Jin Qing back and forth.
"See me? Don't go, don't go, I'm an outsider, what other eldest princess do you see? Nanxing shook his head reluctantly.
"Miss, since the old lady asked Sister Jinqing to come over and invite you. That's not to blame you. You'd better go," Jin Li reassured.
"Yes! Your marriage to Your Highness is a gift from the Holy Heaven, so you should go and see Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess," Mu Cui also replied respectfully.
Nanxing's mind fluttered, "The eldest princess is looking for me, it must be for the marriage of His Royal Highness King Ning!" Looks like I can't hide. It's okay, this girl will give her grandmother a face, and meet this eldest princess Huimin, the eldest sister of Emperor Hui! βγ
Thinking of this, she tilted her head and got up and walked out, "Since that's all said, let's go."
As soon as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, he turned around and instructed Jinli, "Mu Cui follow me." You tell Ziluo that if I don't come back at noon, let her go to the tea stall to find Changji by herself, and then wait for me in the hospital! β
"Yes, Miss!"
I didn't enter Qingxi Hall for a few days, and a few new and peculiar pine and cypress bonsai were added to the yard!
Nanxing looked left and right and smiled knowingly.
In the small hall, Rong Nanyun was talking with his grandmother.
"Grandmother, this morning Yiqing ran to the Star Picking Pavilion and was accidentally poisoned! It was the little sister who sucked out the poisonous blood with her mouth and saved him! Nanyun was very moved in his heart, it seems that the little sister is a real Xing'er, "Nanyun said what happened in the morning while beating his grandmother's shoulder.
Old Madam Rong sighed, "Are you blaming me for not believing her?" In ten years, she has not heard from her, and we don't know what she has experienced? What if she wasn't really Nanxing, but someone secretly arranged it for the sake of the year? Then our hard work will be over! β
She patted her shoulder, motioned for Nanyun to stop, and looked at the door with complicated eyes, "I know she's angry, sad, and even ruthless!" But even so, I don't dare to gamble with the lives of our whole family. I really regret it, why didn't I secretly send someone to protect her! At least I'm sure she's a child in my Rong Mansion! β
"Grandmother, don't worry, Mother has already sent someone to Danxia Mountain to deliver a message to Master Wuchen. When there is a reply, the truth will be revealed! Nagumo sat down beside the old lady.
"Hey, the eldest princess must have summoned him for King Ning's marriage! What exactly does this King Ning mean? I heard Princess Jiahui say, he actually agreed? β
As soon as Old Madam Rong's words fell, Nanxing picked up, "His Royal Highness King Ning personally agreed, and he agreed to this marriage!" β
She had a stiff smile on her face, like she was wearing a mask.
"Grandmother is well! Didn't you say go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion? Let's go, then."
Old Madam Rong was stunned and didn't say anything more.
Signaling that Jinqing can leave.
The mansion of the eldest princess Hui Min is very close to the Ning Wang's mansion.
When Mrs. Rong walked off the carriage with Nanxing, Mama Zhao at the gate hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, "The old sister is here, the master is waiting!" β
Old Madam Rong laughed with her and motioned for Nanxing to follow, "How is the princess doing recently?" Can you still eat comfortably? β
"You don't know the master's habits yet, except for those few things you like, you can use a few more bites, the rest," she looked back at Nanxing, "This is the third young lady?" Have you become a big girl? β
Old Madam Rong glanced behind her and nodded with a smile.
"The princess has always had a bad stomach, and the old man brought a few light pickles. Give my master a taste."
"That's great, thank you old ladyγ"
As the group spoke, they arrived at the antechamber.
Nanxing raised his eyes lightly, and the scenery of the princess's mansion in front of him was chic, pure and elegant!
A red sandalwood jade screen of the four gentlemen was placed at the door, and on both sides of the screen stood well-behaved maids.
"Master, the old lady of Rongfu has come over with the third lady," Mama Zhao stood outside the door and replied respectfully.
"Let them in."
"Yes!"
The maid on the right stretched out her hand to lead the way, and Nanxing followed Mrs. Rong across the screen and into the hall.
The furnishings in the hall are very chic, elegant and luxurious, clean and tasteful!
A few rare Spring Sword Emperor Plums in the world were scattered in different places, and a white jade Ruyi was placed on the red sandalwood table by the window. On the red sandalwood couch next to the table, the eldest princess leaned on the gold silk pillow to read a book, and the grandmother next to her was beating her legs.
"The old man Rong Shang and his granddaughter Rong Nanxing have seen His Royal Highness. Your Highness Wan An, "Old Madam Rong hurriedly kowtowed.
"Get up quickly," the eldest princess put down the book in her hand and glanced at them, "give the old lady a seat!" β
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"This is Nanxing? Sure enough, I grew up, and I still came out so marked! The eldest princess's eyes looked her up and down, "After ten years of hard cultivation, has your temperament been a little more restrained?" β
"I've converged a lot, and I know how important things are! Thank you Your Highness for cultivating her," Old Madam Rong looked at Nanxing and got up to reply.
"Come closer to this princess, let me take a good look at you," the eldest princess smiled kindly, but there was coldness in her eyes.
Nanxing was not afraid of the eldest princess's eyes at all, and naturally stepped forward and looked at her intently.
This eldest princess has exquisite makeup, wears a golden peony crown on her head, and wears a flowing color dark flower cloud brocade palace costume, which is very graceful and luxurious!
"This eldest princess Huimin is really well maintained, look at this skin is whiter than mine, and there are no fine lines at the corners of her eyes." And these pairs of red phoenix eyes are really beautiful! I think I was also a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city when I was young! But it was a pity to hear Mu Cui say that she didn't have a colt and had spent many years in the house alone. βγ
"I heard Zishen say, Ziyuan agreed to marry you? This kid doesn't know what's wrong, he doesn't even want to see the concubine he chooses for him in the palace on weekdays. Now that the Holy One has pointed you out to him, he is willing! β
The eldest princess's tone was filled with dissatisfaction and helplessness, "I don't know where you are?" Won his favor? β
Nanxing's thoughts were pulled back in an instant, and she replied respectfully, "Your Highness is magnificent, and there are dragons and phoenixes among people." Nanxing knew that he was not worthy of His Highness. Nanxing also went to King Ning's Mansion to withdraw his relatives, but His Royal Highness did not agree! β
"How did he refuse the marriage of the Holy One? Do you want him to be jailed for disobedience? Or do you want to use some despicable means to frame him again? β
The eldest princess's face changed, and her voice became cold, "I asked you to come over today, first, to see what you have become?" Second, I want to ask why you poisoned Ziyuan in Baohui Pavilion back then? Where did you get the Seven Misties? β
As soon as these words came out, Old Madam Rong looked at Nanxing and stood up from her chair tremblingly.
"Poison him? Joke, I have no grudge against him, why do I want to hurt him? Nanxing's face also changed, "Your Highness, don't wronged me?" Evidence must be spoken of in everything,"
"Evidence? Here's the proof! β
The eldest princess sneered and beckoned, and a grandmother came out of the inner room with a tray.
"Did you forget, Miss? When you saw this, you didn't say a word. Mama sneered and lifted the cloth from the tray.
"What is this?" Old Madam Rong was startled, and looked at Nanxing with uneasiness in her eyes.
"What is this? I haven't seen it, "
Nanxing looked at the objects in the tray, a handkerchief embroidered with the word 'star' and a red jade medicine bottle.
Quickly searched the memories in his mind, but it was still the same, he didn't find anything related to King Ning!
"Haven't seen it? Not only has the young lady's temperament not changed, but she is also good at telling nonsense with her eyes open! Mama sneered, "These two objects were found on Miss's body back then!" β
"So what? As the saying goes, 'catch the traitor and catch the double, take the thief and take the dirty.' It's too far-fetched to say that this girl poisoned Ye Ziyuan based on these two objects alone. This girl also said that someone else stuffed me and blamed a six-year-old child? β
Nanxing was not afraid at all, and retorted sentence by sentence, so shocked that Mrs. Rong immediately knelt down! .
