Chapter 584: Taking the wrong veil
The veil embroidered with crabapple and dyed with the fragrance of jasmine flowers.
Liu Yunxiang's smile faded. She still remembered that night when she saw Yan Mu holding the veil, looking very cherished. She really forgot that Mrs. Xiao didn't mention this.
"Mrs. Xiao asked His Highness for something, just look for him directly, why go through me?"
"This is not afraid of gossiping."
"Are you afraid, Madam?"
"I'm not afraid, but..." Mrs. Xiao lowered her eyes and smiled, as if she was shy, "I'm just afraid that your Highness would have other thoughts and refuse to return them to me."
Liu Yunxiang hummed lightly, she could see that Mrs. Xiao came here specifically to find her unhappy.
"So, I entered Lanyuan earlier than the princess and met Your Highness earlier." Mrs. Xiao said and took a sip of tea. "At that time, everyone was called sisters. If the princess also participated in the seniority discussion, she would have to call me sister."
Liu Yunxiang bit her secretly, "It's not easy for Mrs. Xiao to be a sister. Just ask General Xiao to take a few more concubines."
Mrs. Xiao snorted, "He dares!"
"He dared not, but Mrs. Xiao seemed to dare."
"I don't dare either. I can only think about it in my heart, and I feel greedy when I see it."
Liu Yunxiang refused to roll her eyes. In terms of being thick-skinned, she was really inferior to Mrs. Xiao.
"By the way, is Your Highness in the mansion?"
"I'll let the maid take you over."
"The princess is not together?"
"It won't prevent you from reminiscing about the past."
"Look at this sourness." Mrs. Xiao put down the teacup and stood up slowly. "I am not that kind of stingy person either. The silk handkerchief embroidered with my boudoir name, which makes people see it, so it's not good, so I'll give it to Your Highness."
"I'm not sour."
"Then let's go together, ask your highness clearly, and ask why he likes my sapphire, do you have feelings for me."
Liu Yunxiang knew that Mrs. Xiao was deliberately provoking her, but she really wanted to know what was going on, so she stood up and said, "Then I will accompany Mrs. Xiao for the sake of the reputation of my noble family."
"Is this true meaningless?"
"Madam probably doesn't want any reputation."
The two of them walked towards Yan Mu's courtyard with their mouths and walked through the hanging flower gate and entered the courtyard. A bitter breath of rich herbs came to their faces. They turned to the west wall and saw a shed there, and someone was cooking medicine inside.
When Liu Yunxiang saw the person who was cooking medicine, she couldn't help but frown.
"Prince, I will burn the fire." A maid stood beside him in embarrassment, "Your Highness said, you are a guest and cannot let you do these things."
"The doctor told me to boil it slowly in a low heat, and boil three bowls of water into one bowl. You just lost half a bowl of water, so I don't feel at ease whoever I hand it over to you."
The maid rubbed her hands, looking helpless.
Mrs. Xiao glanced at it and asked, "Who is this woman?"
"Princess Changning of the Northern Jin Dynasty." Liu Yunxiang said lightly.
"Oh, Princess, I don't know what I think your highness's concubine is."
Liu Yunxiang said lightly: "She has this idea."
"Tsk tsk, it seems that Your Highness is a hot commodity."
Liu Yunxiang hummed and turned around and walked in, but before she could walk up the steps, Changning ran over and stopped them.
"Princess, Your Highness just fell asleep, you might as well not go in and disturb him."
Liu Yunxiang frowned, "I have something to do with him."
"No matter how big the matter is, you can slow down. Your Highness's body is the most important."
"Aren't you already entering the palace? Why are you still here?"
Changning said coldly: "The Queen is worried about Your Highness. She specially asked me to visit Your Highness and come every day."
Mrs. Xiao burst into laughter, "Listen to this, it seems that the princess is not the princess, and the princess is not the princess."
Changning looked at Mrs. Na Xiao and frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
"It means that the one lying inside is the King of Zhenbei, and she is the Princess of Zhenbei. When the couple meet, what are you doing here? It's inappropriate."
When Changning heard this, his face became ugly.
"I am also for your good deeds."
"Oh, if you say this badly, even if your highness dies, the princess should cry, what does it have to do with you?"
"you!"
Mrs. Xiao sighed, "Why is this Your Highness like Tang Monk's flesh? Everyone wants to taste it."
When Liu Yunxiang saw that Changning was so embarrassed that she couldn't speak, she felt relieved and felt a little wronged. It was not that she could not deal with Changning, but that she and Yan Mu were both lukewarm these days, which really gave her an opportunity to take advantage of it.
At this time, Yan Mu came out of the inner room and saw Liu Yunxiang, his face immediately darkened.
"Is there something wrong?" he asked.
Liu Yunxiang frowned, ignored him, turned around and walked to the stone table in the yard and sat down.
"It's not her who has something to do, it's me." Mrs. Xiao pointed at herself.
Yan Mu obviously saw Mrs. Xiao at this time, so he looked at her first, and then asked without any patience: "Who are you?"
Mrs. Xiao widened her eyes, "You forgot me before, after all, it's okay to forget about it after several years. But we just met me a few days ago, and you forgot me again. I look so hard to remember?"
Yan Mu's face turned heavy and he looked at Mrs. Xiao coldly.
He was a little scary like this. Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but remember that when she was in Lanyuan, she was always so jealous when she saw him. At that time, she was afraid of him.
"Ahem, I'm Shawmon's wife."
Yan Mu's thoughts changed, "Is there anything wrong?"
"I...I'll ask for something from Your Highness."
"What?"
"My silk pal."
Yan Mu narrowed his eyes and his eyes were sharp.
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly explained, "Your Highness is probably still holding a silk handkerchief embroidered with crabapple flowers?"
Yan Mu didn't speak, but still stared at Mrs. Xiao gloomyly.
"That night, Your Highness was drinking at my house. The silk squid fell off. I picked it up and returned it to your highness. I accidentally made a mistake and gave it to your highness my silk squid."
Yan Mu frowned and hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief from his arms. This was clearly a silk handkerchief embroidered with crabapple. What's wrong with it? |
"Look at this one with my name embroidered underneath."
Mrs. Xiao pointed to a small word 'Qing' embroidered under the silk squid, "Look, this is indeed mine."
Yan Mu looked at the handkerchief in his hand and looked at the small words. He thought about how many nights he held the handkerchief with full of affection... He felt it was so hot that he hurriedly threw it back.
"You...you return mine!"
Mrs. Xiao pressed the corner of her mouth and prevented herself from laughing. Then she took out another silk squid from her arms, "This one belongs to Your Highness."
Yan Mu looked at the silk handkerchief in Mrs. Xiao's hand, and thought that she took it out of her arms, and the hand that had originally reached out shrank back.
"Forget it, I don't want it, you can throw it away."
Mrs. Xiao smiled, "Then let him give it to me."
When Yan Mu heard this, he quickly took it back, "Madam Xiao, please respect yourself."
"Your Highness is like this, are you afraid that the princess will misunderstand?"
Yan Mu looked into the yard and saw Liu Yunxiang sitting there, looking like he was not concerned about his own affairs. He probably didn't care about the matter here at all.
Yan Mu snorted and turned around to go back.
"Your Highness stays there, my wife has something to do."
Yan Mu's thoughts changed, "If you have something to do, just say it."
Mrs. Xiao glanced at Changning next to her and said, "With an outsider here, it's not convenient for the wife to say anything."
Yan Mu glanced at Changning, and Changning said to go and boil the medicine, so he left.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Liu Yunxiang again, "Princess, please listen to it together, so as not to misunderstand that your highness and I do something unreasonable in it. Of course, I am a weak woman, I can't resist what your highness wants to do."
