Xianyue was sitting in a chair with her eyes closed and concentrating. Qi Kuan and Changfu were standing behind her. When Xianyue heard Zhichun's greetings, she opened her eyes and turned her eyes to Yonghuang, "You're back?"
Yong Huang lowered his head and said, "Yes."
"Changfu said that you learned from two palace servants that Concubine Zhe left a letter for you. After that, you sent him to pour tea. When he came back, you were gone. Where did you go?"
"I..." Yonghuang resisted the urge to question Xianyue and followed what Yuguiren taught him before: "I'll go see Yuguiren."
Xianyue frowned and said in confusion: "Why do you see her?"
Yong Huang gritted his teeth slightly and said something against his will, "E Niang knew that what she had committed was a heinous crime and that once it was exposed, she would have a narrow escape from death, so she left me a letter saying that if something happened to her
, let me find Mr. Yugui, my mother has some affection for her, and she should take care of me."
Xianyue didn't say anything, she just said: "So you went to see Mr. Yugui?"
"Well, actually I never believed that E Niang would harm the crown prince, until I saw this letter..." Yong Huang tried his best to make his voice sound choked and sad, "I have to believe that E Niang really did it.
She made a big mistake...why did she do such a thing, and ultimately harmed others and herself."
Xianyue looked at him and said: "The matter has passed, there is no point in thinking about it anymore."
Yonghuang nodded and said: "Yes, I understand, and I don't want to think about it anymore. Yu Guiren said that I should study hard, listen to the Queen's words, and share the worries and troubles of Emperor Ama in the future."
"Okay." After such a response, Xianyue said again: "Where is the letter your mother gave you?"
"I..." Yong Huang looked slightly panicked and said, "I burned the letter."
Xianyue showed a shocked look for the first time after he came in and said: "Burned? Why?"
Yonghuang clasped his hands and said, "Because I don't want to remember that E Niang is a murderer, but that letter will keep reminding me." He took a breath and said, "As Niang Niang said, the past is meaningless.
Think about it again. From now on, I just need to remember that I have a mother who loves me."
"That's what you said." Xianyue nodded and said, "Okay, you go back and rest, don't think too much." After that, she looked sideways and said, "Changfu, you go back with the eldest brother."
Seeing that she was not suspicious, Yonghuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and exited the Nuan Pavilion with Changfu. After they left, Xianyue Qikuan said: "Do you believe what the eldest brother said?"
Qi Kuan was startled and said: "What the eldest brother said is very reasonable. I don't think there is any problem."
Xianyue looked at the direction Yonghuang was leaving and said, "It's just because it's so reasonable that there's a problem. The eldest brother is dull by nature and not good at words, but when I asked a question just now, he just answered it, and he answered it right.
Every sentence is reasonable, no
It's like he came up with it himself. And the last thing..." Xianyue stood up and walked a few steps and said: "Fucha is the eldest brother's biological mother, and the letter is her legacy to the eldest brother.
Although I am not as good as Yonglian in many places, there is one thing that is the same."
Zhichun asked curiously: "Same? What does master mean?"
"Filial piety." Xia Yue said coolly: "How could a filial person burn the letter just because she didn't want to remember the mistakes her mother made? The most she can do is put it away and not read it. The letter should be returned
Yes, it’s just that he doesn’t want me to see it.”
Qi Kuan frowned and said: "According to what the master said, is it possible that someone taught the eldest brother to say those words?"
Zhichun took the words and said: "The eldest brother came back from Mr. Yugui. Is it possible that Mr. Yugui taught him those words? But why did Mr. Yugui do this?"
"I can't think of this at the moment, but if she is really a noble person..." Xianyue narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly: "Then she may not be as simple as I know."
Qi Kuan nodded and said: "The key should be in that letter. When the eldest brother goes to the study room tomorrow, I will search for it and I should be able to find it."
Xianyue nodded and said, "Of course we have to look for the letter, but we also need to keep an eye on Yuguiren to see if we can find any clues." At this point, she glanced around and said, "Where's A Luo?
I haven’t seen her figure all day today.”
Qi Kuan bowed and said, "I saw A Luo this morning. She said she had something to go out with. As for what it was, I don't know."
Xianyue frowned and said, "Does A Luo go out a lot recently?"
Qi Kuan thought for a while and said, "It's not often, but it's definitely more than before."
Xianyue didn't say anything, she just said: "When you see A Luo come back, ask her to come see me."
A Luo waited until dusk before returning. She walked to Xianyue who was embroidering with an embroidery booth and said, "Master, are you looking for a slave?"
Xianyue glanced at her and said, "I've been looking for you all day, where have you been?"
A Luo smiled and said, "My slave went to see Fu Heng and gave him the fried fish yesterday so that he could take it back to Xin Xing to eat."
Xianyue paused in her movements, raised her head and said, "It's just such a small matter, why did it take so long?"
"He knew that the ointment that the slave used to apply on the wound was exhausted, so he gave the slave a new box, and then talked for a while. He didn't expect that time passed so quickly." A Luo waited for a while but did not see Xianyue speaking, and whispered.
: "Master, is there anything wrong?"
Xianyue did not answer her words, but said: "So, you went out before to meet Fu Heng?"
A Luo said a little strangely: "Yes, Master, why do you suddenly ask about this?"
After Xianyue retired from the palace, she stared into her eyes and said, "Aluo, please answer me honestly, do you like Fu Heng?"
Suddenly hearing these words, A Luo was stunned. After he came to his senses, he quickly shook his head and said: "Where did the master go? How could I like Fu Heng? I went to see him just because
Just happy."
"If that's all, why have you been talking for so long? Besides, Fu Heng comes from a wealthy family, so there will naturally be servants to take care of Happy. You don't need to worry about it at all, let alone send any fish. Unless Happy
It's just an excuse, your purpose is to see Fu Heng!" After speaking, Xianyue's tone became stern.
A Luo waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, I have never thought about it this way."
"Perhaps you really haven't thought about it, but A Luo, ask yourself, do you really not miss Fu Heng at all?" Faced with Xianyue's inquiry, A Luo fell silent for a long time and said in a low voice: "Although Fu Heng
He comes from a well-known family, but he has no airs. It's very comfortable to be with him."
Although A Luo didn't say it clearly, how could Xianyue not understand it? She sighed and said: "Fu Heng is indeed very good. He is young and promising, and he is highly valued by the emperor. For many people, the Lan Ling guard is already very good.
It’s amazing, but for Fu Heng, all this is just the beginning.
, the future is limitless. If you can marry him, even if you are not the official wife, I will be very happy. But his status is too far from yours. You are several years older than Fu Heng, and he is the queen's wife.
My dear brother, given the Queen’s prejudice against me, I will never let you marry Fu Heng.”
