Chapter Twenty-Three: The Mysterious Man
"Look at your mysterious appearance, how can I have anything on my mind, and if I have a good friend like you in the future, I won't have to worry about it, and I finally found a confidant. Xu Nuo'er said with a smile.
The two chatted all the way to enjoy the flowers, and forgot to go back for lunch.
I saw a little palace maid running panting, and when she saw the two of them, she hurriedly saluted and said, "The Queen Mother is waiting for the princess and Princess Fu to have lunch." β
"Oh, we know, let's go. Princess Yulin was busy responding.
"Sister, we actually forgot to have lunch while chatting, it seems that we really met a confidant. Yulin smiled and trembled, she was rarely so happy in the palace now.
The two hurriedly returned to Shou'an Palace, only to see the Queen Mother and Mo Xingchen sitting upright waiting for them.
"Queen Mother, Brother Wang, it was I who dragged my sister around the back garden, so I delayed the time for lunch. Yulin smiled and excused Xu Nuo'er empathetically.
The Queen Mother looked displeased, flirted her eyelids, glanced at Xu Yu'er, and said lukewarmly: "Sit down." Xu Nuo'er thanked him and sat down next to Mo Xingchen.
When the Queen Mother looked at Yulin, she suddenly became kind and pleasant, and said with a doting face: "Come, come to the queen mother." β
If it's really his own good, no matter whose fault it is, anyway, his own child will never be wrong, Xu Yu'er secretly complained in his heart.
Life in the palace is really as luxurious as rumored, only four people eat, and there is a table full of dishes, which is like feeding pigs, which is too wasteful.
"You are now a princess of Fu, so you must have a princess everywhere, you must not be jealous in the future, this is a taboo as a royal woman, the mourning family knows that you have a few concubines before you enter the palace, so you must have a proper wife's bearing, coexist peacefully with them, share worries for King Fu, and spread out for the royal family, I don't want to hear about the intrigue in King Fu's mansion in the future. Before he could move the chopsticks, the Queen Mother gave another lecture.
"Yes, Noel remembers the teachings of her mother. Xu Nuo'er felt funny in her heart, but her face lowered her eyebrows and snorted.
These words sound so funny, she doesn't have the word "jealousy" at all, okay? With Mo Xingchen's eyes, there is simply no one, if she is jealous with those women, she will simply lower her identity.
In her promise's opinion, those people are a code-like existence, as long as they can not come to her Xiaoxiangyuan to provoke trouble, they can do it without disturbing the river water, and they will be safe. But if they don't have to make trouble because of their own strength, and she is not a master who is afraid of things, then don't blame her for being ruthless, don't say that she is the queen mother when the time comes, even if the Jade Emperor descends to earth, she will dare to act. Two lives as a person, she has seen a lot, life in the world to live the nourishment, compromise, in the future she promised that she will never do, anyway, after living two lives, no matter the length of time, it is worth it.
"Queen Mother, look at you left your sister to eat, you actually said something that was unpleasant, and you didn't let the family eat, and besides, the women in the royal brother's mansion, which one is the fuel-efficient lamp? There is another one, who doesn't look at it much, and he has a lot of money in his heart, and there is no lack of black hands behind his back, otherwise before my sister enters the mansion, they can provoke trouble in three days?"
"My Yulin has really grown up, and he has a pair of discerning eyes, and he can see the problem more deeply and thoroughly, the mourning family is grateful, and Nuo'er is your sister-in-law, how can you change her name to sister, and she is messing around!"
"Queen mother, Yulin has lacked a sister since she was a child, and she finally met a satisfactory sister-in-law, and became someone's sister-in-law, that Yulin is quite called sister-in-law in front of outsiders, and she is called sister behind her back, so don't you care about it anymore, okay?" Yulin came up with a trick to deal with his mother and brother, that is, to be coquettish.
"Okay, it's up to you, but remember to call your sister-in-law in front of everyone, otherwise you will break the rules. The Queen Mother really didn't have anything to do with this little daughter, so she raised her hand and surrendered after a few rounds.
"Sister, eat vegetables, if you don't eat it, it will be cold, the queen mother, you move the chopsticks first, if you don't eat it, which of us dare to eat!" Yulin first sandwiched a quick lotus root slices for his mother, and then said to Xu Nuo'er with a smile.
Xu Nuo'er smiled and nodded, and then began to move the chopsticks. She was really glad that she had met Princess Yulin today, otherwise she really didn't know if she could swallow this meal. With Yulin here, it is much more relaxed, and there is no such thing as eating and sleeping silently. She ate happily and occasionally came to say, which made everyone almost spray rice, but fortunately, Du An'an controlled it. The Queen Mother looked at her baby daughter more and more pleasing to the eye, so what etiquette was there, the details were ignored. It's a pleasant meal.
After dinner, the Queen Mother left Mo Xingchen to play chess, Xu Yu'er and Yulin went to the courtyard to chat and drink tea, the afternoon passed quickly, the sun was about to set, so I hurriedly had dinner, said goodbye to the Queen Mother and Yulin and returned to the Fuwang Mansion.
As soon as she returned to Xiaoxiang Garden, Xu Yu'er lay on the bed on all fours and complained.
If it weren't for Sister Lin falling from the sky, she would have to have calluses in her ears today, that old woman is really hateful, she must have suffered a lot of resentment from her mother-in-law back then, so she can be regarded as catching her today, and complaining.
"Miss, why did you come back so late? Have you eaten dinner?" Xiao Cui asked with some concern as she looked at her young lady lying on the bed indecently, with a worried look.
"Hmph, you don't need to eat at all to enter the palace, I'm full of gas, that old woman is even more noisy than those two hateful crows, it's just annoying to me!" Xu Yu'er lowered her voice and complained with a look of disgust.
"Shhhhh Xiao Cui looked panicked, and hurriedly stopped Xu Yu'er from going on, although this is their one-third of an acre, but this matter must be cautious.
"I know, look at you again, alas, don't worry, how can they hear such a small sound and they are not cats. Xu Yu'er didn't think so, and got up.
"Miss, you don't know, I'll go to the big kitchen today to get you the ingredients, and I heard the little maid of Meixiang Pavilion say that it seems that their master is sick, and it seems that there is something wrong with her mother's side, as if the emperor ordered a thorough investigation of their house. Xiao Cui whispered in Xu Nuo'er's ear.
"Oh, really, I don't see it, this speed is really vigorous and resolute, quite efficient! It is worthy of the current emperor, I really admire and admire. When Xu Yu'er heard this, her face was happy, of course she knew that she had not gone in vain when she entered the palace this time.
"Well, it's true, those two little maids also asked the master of the big kitchen to make some medicinal food that defeated the fire, it seems that it will not be fake. Xiao Cui nodded repeatedly.
I didn't see that this Qin Xianmei news is really well-informed, she is in the palace and can know everything about the outside world, it seems that it is not simple!
At this time, Xu Yu'er had to look at Qin Xianmei again, she was not only a ruthless vixen who would seduce men, but there were many ulterior secrets behind her, and the mastermind behind this must have a strong background, otherwise she would not be overbearing in the palace.
Mei Xiang Pavilion, Qin Xianmei was lying on the chaise longue and sighed, at this moment she really had nothing to do, how could something happen to the good one, the people around her were all credible people, and she couldn't figure it out.
At this moment, a tall man wearing a silver fox mask flashed in.
Qin Xianmei immediately stood up, knelt on the ground, and said in shock: "Master, Xianmei knows that she is wrong, but Xianmei can't find any link that went wrong, so how can the emperor suspect her father." β
"I'm here for this, although I can't find out who is the fine work yet, but the people around you must be thoroughly investigated, if this continues, you will kill me sooner or later, and then your princess dream should be completely awakened. The man lowered his voice and spoke in a threatening tone.
"Xian Mei understands, please rest assured that Xian Mei will do everything possible to find out the spies around her, but Xian Mei wants to ask the master, this Western Regions charm technique does not seem to work very well for Mo Xingchen, as long as I cast a charm on him before, he will be obedient obediently, but recently, he can resist my charm technique, and Xian Mei doesn't know which link went wrong. Qin Xianmei told the man in the silver fox mask her doubts without concealing it.
"That's because he already has a heart, so your charm technique can't reach the depths of his heart, so it's becoming more and more useless to him, so you have to take another plan when necessary. The silver fox man's eyes were cloudy, and his voice was fierce, which frightened Qin Xianmei and couldn't help but be smart.
"Master, don't, me, I'll try again. "How could Qin Xianmei bear to be cruel to Mo Xingchen, so would the Mo Xingchen she get still Mo Xingchen?
No, she doesn't want Mo Xingchen to be like that walking corpse, she loves this real man with flesh and soul now.
"You, you really have to fall in love with him, don't forget, how did you promise me in the first place, all you want is the position of the princess, as long as you cooperate with me, I will make you the princess, at that time you will have infinite glory and wealth, what kind of man will not have at that time, will you give up your power and wealth for a Mo Xingchen?" The silver fox man sneered, in his opinion, women are nothing more than for power and wealth, and feelings are sometimes worthless.
