Mu Lingxue had been depressed for several days after receiving her brother's letter. Until it was heard from outside that the emperor had gone to court, and the atmosphere in the entire Prince Xian's Mansion was not right. Mu Lingxue knew in her heart that she was getting closer and closer to that incident.
Already.
The weather in winter is very good. It often snows at night and clears up during the day. Looking at the silver in the courtyard, Mu Lingxue's heart feels better inexplicably, and it seems that she has finally overcome her depression.
A person lives a lifetime, but in just a few decades, he is always depressed. Isn’t it wasted in vain?
Mu Lingxue knew that some things could no longer be stopped. In this case, she had to take revenge before leaving the house. As the saying goes, she had someone to support her at this time. She should retaliate when there is injustice.
There is revenge.
At the dinner table, Shuizhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her master was finally willing to eat and had a good appetite. However, she was also a little surprised when she heard that the emperor had gone to court.
The hospital can be quieter now, and some people will be less lawless.
But when I think about it, I don’t know what happened. Didn’t Concubine Rong suppress the main courtyard? She suddenly sent so many servants. This is not like Concubine Rong’s style.
Unfortunately, the servants in the entire backyard were led by Concubine Rong and Zhan. It was not easy to find out what happened. Shuizhu was just thinking about this when he saw Qiangwei coming in from outside and asking the servants in the house to
Everyone retreated, and then he spoke with a happy face.
"Master, what do you think this slave heard?" He said with an inviting look on his face.
Shuizhu raised his hand to hit her, "I'm not big or small, but I forgot the rules in front of my master."
Qiangwei stuck out her tongue and leaned to the table, "My servant heard that Concubine Rong was scolded by the prince, so she sent servants to our courtyard. I heard that Concubine Rong bullied the princess.
After going outside, the prince felt that he had lost face, so he scolded Concubine Rong."
After hearing this, Shuizhu understood what was going on. No wonder, it turned out that there was another reason.
Mu Lingxue sneered, "Why is the prince so kind?"
Could it be that he also knows that his brother is going to be named a general? No, the eldest brother has said it. No one else knows about it yet. Only some of the eldest brother's cronies know. These eldest brothers have said it in their letters, unless it is from the emperor to King Xian.
Rumor has it, but I don't think it's possible.
Since this is not the reason, then Feng Guqiu's attitude is a bit strange. No matter how you think about it, it is hard to figure out. She is showing hospitality for nothing, committing adultery or stealing. She does not believe that there are good things that fall into the trap every day.
Qiangwei couldn't help but tilted her head after hearing this, "Yeah, why did the prince suddenly become so good to the princess? He actually stood up for the princess?"
"Forget it, what are you thinking about? After dinner, let's go for a walk in the garden. I remember there are some plum blossoms there. Are they about to bloom?" Mu Lingxue put a chicken leg into a bowl.
Shuizhu twitched his lips and had to admire him. When his master had a good appetite, he focused on the meat. Look at the things on the table. Apart from the meat and few vegetables, the master could still eat it.
, I actually ate half of this chicken, and even half of the other dishes. My appetite is really good.
Qiangwei clapped her hands, "Master just remembered that those plum trees have been in bloom for a long time. I heard that the fragrance is spreading throughout the garden."
Mu Lingxue ate a chicken leg, took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth, then stood up and said, "Let's get out of here. Let's go for a walk. By the way, since the plum blossoms are so good, do you think many people in the house will come?"
"
Shuizhu's eyelids twitched, and he always felt that something was wrong.
Then I heard Qiangwei say, "I heard that those plum trees were planted by the prince when Concubine Rong entered the palace, and Concubine Rong only liked plum blossoms, so after the plum blossoms bloomed, Concubine Rong was the most beautiful.
A long-lasting one."
Mu Lingxue smiled, it was really free of charge, and it was delivered to her door like this. It was not a coincidence. Thinking of what Rong had done, Mu Lingxue walked a little faster.
There is always one person left in the courtyard, Qiangwei followed, Shuizhu had no choice but to stay, but she was still worried and called Qiangwei, "If you meet Concubine Rong when you get there later, please wait carefully.
,knew?"
Qiangwei opened her mouth strangely, "Don't worry, how could I let the master suffer."
Shuizhu looked at Qiangwei who was jumping away. Shuizhu shook her head. She was not afraid that her master would suffer a loss, but she was afraid that he would make things too big. She had never underestimated her master, and his temper was not a bad one.
Lord.
In the garden, when Mu Lingxue arrived, it was deserted. But staring at the snow on the ground, Mu Lingxue raised her eyebrows. Although there was no one around, it could be seen that someone had been to the garden, and he was a man.
Thinking about Qiangwei saying that the plum blossoms were planted by Feng Guqiu, the man behind could not come in, and the male servant would not have the heart to appreciate the plum blossoms. It might be Feng Guqiu himself.
But looking at only a pair of male footprints, I didn't expect that he didn't bring Li Ningfu out. That's right, Li Ningfu is pregnant and needs to take a good rest at this moment.
But looking around, the whole garden was empty, and these were just footsteps that went away but never returned. Where did this man hide?
Mu Lingxue curled her lips and heard a sound at the garden door, and then heard Qiangwei whisper, "Master, it's Concubine Rong who is here."
It was she who was waiting for her. Mu Lingxue tightened her fur coat tightly and turned around slowly, facing Concubine Rong's astonished look. Of course Concubine Rong was surprised. The princess was confined to the main courtyard. At this moment
How could it be here?
However, thinking about the prince's scolding, Mrs. Rong immediately came to her senses and blessed Fu Shen, "I have met the princess."
Mu Lingxue smiled faintly, "It turns out to be Concubine Rong. Oh, why do you look so thin? Is there something bad going on these days?"
Mrs. Rong felt that her thoughts had been seen through, and her face was not very good-looking, "I have been taking care of things in the backyard all day long, so I may have lost some weight."
Although Mrs. Rong is said to be very respectable, who doesn't know that as soon as the princess entered the palace, the prince asked her to hand over the power to the princess. At the beginning, the princess did not take the power and still let him manage everything.
At this time, she was showing off her right to manage the inner court, but it was just a matter of force.
Mu Lingxue laughed out loud in shame, "Concubine Rong is indeed right. The matter of managing the backyard doesn't seem to be a big deal, but it is troublesome enough. If you can't do it well, you will still have to worry about it."
Blame, it’s such a thankless job.”
After being stabbed, Rong's face turned ugly again, "It's a cold day. The princess came out of the courtyard. I think she was in a good mood."
Rong reminded Mu Lingxue implicitly not to forget about being banned.
If she hadn't been reprimanded by the prince, Mrs. Rong would have gotten rid of the matter long ago, but after what happened last time, she became more careful in her actions. No matter what, this was the princess, and she couldn't take any risks.
Then contradicted.
Mu Lingxue pretended not to understand at all, "I heard that the flowers on the plum trees in the garden were in bloom, so I came over to take a look. It was really nice. I smelled the fragrance as soon as I came in. Concubine Rong had time, and she also had time."
come over."
Upon hearing the mention of plum blossoms, Rong's face clearly flashed with satisfaction, "Yes, those plum trees bloomed the second year after the prince planted them, and the fragrance was very strong. They caused quite a sensation at that time.
Well, so every winter when the plum blossoms bloom, I and the prince will always come here the most, and the prince likes this very much."
Is this showing off again?
Mu Lingxue was not angry, and nodded in agreement, "No, I heard from my servants that these plum blossoms are good, so I thought of folding some and putting them in the house."
Rong's expression paused, and Qiangwei couldn't help but snicker. Seeing Rong eating flies, it really relieved her anger.
What made Ms. Rong angry was that she had already said that it was the token of love between her and the prince, but the princess still wanted to break it, and even said that she would break some plum blossoms, but she was reluctant to break even one of them.
Why don't you just watch others fold?
Even the prince has not folded it.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Rong had a solemn look on her face, "I'm too talkative. The princess should stay in the main courtyard at this time. If the prince finds out, he will definitely be furious. Moreover, even the prince can't bear to part with these plum trees."
If you break a branch, if the princess breaks it, will it be bad for the prince to find out?"
After just a few words, I couldn't bear it anymore. How could such a woman survive in this deep mansion?
Mu Lingxue pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, "I can't help it. The prince is always in the front yard. If no one told me, how would he know? As for this flower, isn't it just for people to see? It's just a vulgar object.
Your Majesty doesn’t pick it because it is vulgar, so how can you care about it?”
One sentence directly slapped Mr. Rong in the face and pointed out that Mr. Rong was tacky.
This made Ms. Rong feel that she had lost all face in front of all the servants. How could she still be graceful? "Princess, I just reminded the princess out of kindness. Why would the princess bother to make things difficult for me?"
Mu Lingxue looked confused, "What does Concubine Rong mean by saying this? Why don't I understand? I just told a few truths, why am I trying to make things difficult for you? Could it be that in this Prince Xian's Mansion?
Li, to be honest, is it just making things difficult for others?"
Being asked this question, Rong's face froze.
From the corner of her eyes, she saw a figure coming behind her. Mu Lingxue secretly laughed in her heart. She didn't expect that Feng Gu Qiu was really in this garden, but he was able to come out at this time, so he had made progress.
When it comes to Mr. Rong, when he sees someone approaching, his eyes will turn red first, and he will shed tears before saying anything. Is this the kind of person he is? His pitiful appearance is not to mention heartbreaking.
Mu Lingxue sneered sarcastically, why do women in ancient times like to pretend to be weak? What's even more disgusting is that this man was actually fooled, and he didn't know when he would meet a man who could really understand.
Seeing the person approaching, Rong dwarfed and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person started sobbing.
