Chapter 8: The Mystery Revealed (5)

"Haha, I underestimated you. The eldest prince said with some annoyance, "Since you know everything, I won't go around in circles, the matter of the Drunken Immortal Building was indeed arranged by me." ”

"Sure enough, it's just that I didn't expect the eldest prince to be so ruthless as to put the Dusk Cloud County Lord in such an embarrassing situation, the eldest prince is really ......" Mu Ruhai's sentence was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf before he could say it, when he heard the sound of flower pots being tripped outside the study.

"Who?" both of them walked out the door at the same time, only to see a cat scurrying around the tripped flower pot.

Mu Ruhai and the eldest prince glanced at each other, and continued to return to the room, Mu Ruhai deliberately looked outside the study to make sure that no one closed the door and continued to talk with the eldest prince.

"What is the purpose of the Great Prince's doing this?, has the Great Prince's feelings taken into account in doing this?" Mu Ruhai regretted what he had said to Dusk Yun before, and began to question the Great Prince.

"Enough. The eldest prince thought of his daughter's heart for a while, but it was useless to say more, so he roared angrily and pushed the door open and left, and when he left, he did not forget to turn his head and kindly remind: "General Mu is so thoughtful, I have time to wait for General Mu to change his mind." ”

"Why, why is this happening?" said Lord Twilight as he walked back to his yard in despair.

Walked hobbly, muttering as he walked.

"Miss, Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you? Didn't you go to find your aunt and the eldest prince?" asked Lian'er as she draped the cloak in her hand over Twilight's body.

"It's okay, go back, I'm tired. Twilight said to Lian'er with blank eyes as if she had lost her soul.

It turned out that what Mu Ruhai and the eldest prince said in the study were all heard by Dusk Cloud.

Twilight feels that her existence is a joke, her husband doesn't trust her, and her father, who has loved her for so many years, actually uses her.

She just wants to live a good life, even if she knows that the person in Mu Ruhai's heart is not herself, she is willing to stay by his side, because she believes that one day her husband will forget the woman in her heart and fall in love with her. But she didn't expect that she would become a pawn.

"What are you holding in your hand?" asked Lian'er when she saw a servant holding a copper basin with some unburned ashes in it.

"This is the clothes that the general asked to burn. The servant replied cautiously.

"What clothes?" Twilight said faintly, no emotion in her tone.

"Yes, yes, yes...... It was the clothes that the general had changed into when he came back from outside today. "The servant did not dare to hide anything.

Twilight closed her eyes and sighed softly, but the tears began to fall.

"Let's go down. Twilight spoke again for the servant to step down.

"Yes, ma'am. The servant stooped down and answered and departed with the brass basin. Twilight looked at the servant's back as if something had been stripped from her body, leaving her gasping for breath in pain, and suddenly, Twilight's eyes went black and she fainted to the ground.

"Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you? Someone, someone, Madame fainted. Twilight suddenly fainted, and Lian'er on the side hurriedly called for help.

"How's it going?" asked the doctor who was treating Twilight.

"The county lord is fine, it's just that the sadness is excessive, and he can't get angry for a while, the old minister prescribes some medicine to the county lord to soothe the liver and invigorate qi, and it's good to take two patches, but don't let the county lord be stimulated by anything more. ”

The imperial doctor finished his pulse and said to Luo Yiyi.

"I see, Lian'er, send the doctor. Luo Yiyi said to Lian'er, who was quietly sad on the side. Hearing Luo Yuyi's order, Lian'er sent the doctor out.

After the eldest prince left, Mu Ruhai ordered that no one should enter the study.

He sat quietly in his chair, not knowing what to do. Suddenly, the door to the study was pushed open. Mu Ruhai frowned and said with some annoyance: "Didn't you say that no one is allowed to enter the study?"

"The general is so angry. Luo Yiyi walked into the study and said to her son angrily, "Twilight fainted, do you know?"

"What??, did Twilight faint?" Mu Ruhai was a little surprised, he had planned to wait for Twilight to be in a stable mood in two days before going to apologize in person, but he didn't expect Twilight to faint.

Luo Yiyi looked at her stupid son, shook her head and said, "Twilight is a good girl, don't wait until you lose it to know how to cherish it." Go see her. ”

"Good. Mu Ruhai couldn't care so much at this time, and ran to Twilight's room after saying hello.

The sunlight poured in through the window, and the room was bright, but there was no smile on the face of the person on the bed.

When Mu Ruhai arrived, Twilight Cloud had already woken up, and there were only two people in the room, her and Mu Ruhai.

Mu Ruhai stood beside the bed and silently looked at Twilight, who was lying with his back to Mu Ruhai.

After a while, Mu Ruhai spoke: "You, are you okay?" I didn't mean to ......" "Okay, you go out, I'm tired and want to sleep for a while." Twilight forced herself to speak.

"Well, then you have a good rest, I'll come back to see you tomorrow. Mu Ruhai said softly. With that, he left, putting Twilight's exposed hand back under the covers.

After Mu Ruhai left, Twilight finally couldn't help crying.

Two months later, Twilight becomes pregnant.

Although Mu Ruhai was a little entangled and didn't know how to treat Twilight, he was also caring, but Twilight didn't feel any pain for him, since the last incident, Twilight didn't have the enthusiasm and joy for Mu Ruhai before, and was replaced by blandness.

Half a year later

The Great Prince's Mansion

"Lord Wang, is there something that my subordinates don't know if to talk about or not?" It was Mo Heng, the secret guard of the Great Prince's Mansion, who had followed the Great Lord since he was a child, and his martial arts were strong, and his black clothes made him look like he was not close to anyone.

"What's the matter?" the Great Lord glanced at him meaningfully and motioned for him to continue.

"The subordinates accidentally discovered that the son of the Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War had no intention of liking a daughter who was not an outsider. Mo Heng said.

The eldest prince put down the teacup in his hand, and seemed not very interested in other people's feelings.

Mo Heng saw that his master did not speak, so he continued: "And my subordinates heard that General Mu also seems to be in love with this woman. ”

"What?" This surprised the eldest prince, and he spit out two words, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a deep gaze in his eyes.

"Your girl, her character is outstanding in all aspects, the eldest prince has taken a fancy to your girl, and wants to marry your girl back to be an aunt, I don't know what Chen Yuan's intentions are?"

"This, I'm afraid I have to ask the little girl's opinion. Chen Yuanwai was a little embarrassed, he never thought about letting his daughter marry into any royal family, he just wanted his daughter to spend her life happily, but for some reason she was targeted by the eldest prince.

"No need to ask. Before Chen Yuanwai finished speaking, an uninvited guest came to the hall, isn't this Mo Heng.

"My lord said that this proposal is not to discuss with the outside, but to know the outside. With a hint of a wicked smile, Mo Heng casually found a place to sit down, crossed Erlang's legs, and said locally. "Aren't you obviously robbing people?" Chen Yuanwai was in a hurry to stand up and yelled at Mo Heng, Mrs. Chen also stood up, respectfully walked in front of Mo Heng, saluted, and said, "My lord, it is Xi'er's blessing to be able to marry into the palace, and we will prepare well." ”

"Madam, ...... you" Chen Yuanwai didn't expect his wife to say this, and he was speechless in shock. "Hahaha, or Mrs. is generally knowledgeable, three days later, the prince's sedan chair will come to pick up Miss Chen and enter the door. I won't bother Chen Yuanwai and his wife, and I will leave first." After Mo Heng finished speaking, he walked away.

"Madam, how is this good?" Chen Yuan said anxiously like an ant on a hot pot, "Do you really want to marry Xi'er to the eldest prince? ”

"How could I not know, it's just that we can only let Xi'er escape for the sake of the great prince. ”

Mrs. Chen grabbed the silk handkerchief in her hand fiercely with both hands and said. "At the ends of the earth, there is always a place for my children. After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she threw herself into her husband's arms and began to cry.

"Miss, no, miss. Chen Yunxi was dressing up and preparing to go to see Sinwuxin, when he heard his maid Xiao Tao furiously screaming.

Chen Yunxi put down the thrush pen in his hand, glanced back at Xiao Tao, who was out of breath, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Tao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No, Miss, it was the eldest prince who suddenly asked someone to come to ask for marriage and marry Miss as an aunt." ”

"What? The Great Prince's Marriage? Xiao Tao, you can't have heard it wrong, right? Why did the Great Prince's Majesty suddenly ask me for a kiss?" Chen Yunxi's face was full of shock, and the fear that followed after the shock.

Chen Yunxi put down the rouge box in his hand and continued to ask Xiao Tao: "Then what did my father say?" Xiao Tao listened to them and hurriedly came to report to Chen Yunxi after listening to half of them, so she replied: "The old lady promised to let the young lady marry." ”

"This is impossible, Dad, my mother will not agree to me marrying me, no, I have to go to my father and mother to ask for clarification. Chen Yunxi said and ran to the hall.

When Chen Yunxi ran to the hall, she saw her mother hugging her father and crying.

Chen Yunxi stepped forward and knelt down: "Father, mother, my daughter doesn't want to marry the eldest prince." As he spoke, he began to cry.

"Hurry up, child, my mother doesn't want you to marry in the past, if you marry in the past, your life will be ruined. Mrs. Chen said as she went to help Chen Yunxi, who was kneeling on the ground. "Yes, Xi'er, you go, go far, and leave tonight so that you don't have too many dreams at night. Chen Yuanwai took Chen Yunxi's hand and said.

"If I leave, father, what should my mother do? Will he let you go easily?" Chen Yunxi thought that if he left, they would inevitably be implicated and wanted to take his father and mother together, so he continued, "Dad, mother, let's go together." The Chen family and his wife glanced at each other and nodded, and said in unison, "Okay, let's go together." ”

"Dad, mother, before leaving, my daughter still wants to see someone. After Chen Yunxi finished speaking, he ran outside the house. "Xi'er, come back early. Mrs. Chen shouted worriedly.

Night

"Go and invite General Mu and Lord Duyun to go home for a meal and a small gathering. The eldest prince said to the butler.

"Yes. "The housekeeper got the order, and immediately went to the general's mansion to spread the word.

"Mo Heng, look at the Chen family, don't let people run away. After the housekeeper left, the eldest prince opened his mouth again, only to hear Mo Heng in the dark respond: "Obey." And there was no sound.

When Duyun and Mu Ruhai arrived, the eldest prince had already prepared a feast and waited for his daughter to return.

"Daddy. Twilight happily called Daddy. "Twilight. The eldest prince was very happy to see the pregnant Twilight, and quickly let his daughter sit at the table.

By the way, he glanced at Mu Ruhai, who was standing beside Duyun: "Son-in-law should also sit." ”
