Guan Yupeng smiled and said: "My mother just said angry words for a moment, don't take it to heart. Don't think about these unhappy things. Close your eyes and rest for a while. When you fall asleep, I will talk to my mother again."
Talk, she is old, and you are the daughter-in-law, so you have to be more tolerant."
"Zi Ai knows that Zi Ai is too narrow-minded." Xian Zi Ai whispered softly, closed her eyes, and breathed out softly, "Zi Ai listens to my husband, please close your eyes and sleep for a while."
After waiting for a while, when he heard Xian Zi Ai's steady breathing, Guan Yupeng stood up gently and called out twice, "Zi Ai, Zi Ai." But there was no response or movement from Zi Ai, so he was sure that she was indeed the person.
When he fell asleep, he motioned to the slave beside him to come over and whispered, "Come out, I have something to ask you."
The servant immediately and respectfully followed Guan Yupeng out of the room where Xian Ziai was resting. Hearing the footsteps stopping outside the door, faint voices of conversation came in from outside. Xian Ziai quietly opened her eyes and stared at the top of her head.
The pattern on the top of her bed was very delicate, but very indifferent, just like her husband, her mother-in-law and her brothers-in-law. None of them really liked her, including Guan Yupeng, the emperor, who wanted to accompany her all her life.
The husband he had chosen for her personally.
There were candle flames dancing in the room. She closed her eyes again and listened to the dialogue outside with bated breath.
"Have you never left Zi Ai?" It was Guan Yupeng's voice, slightly accusatory and majestic. He was like this at the border. It was different from the one in the capital. When he reprimanded the officers and soldiers, he was completely like a god of death without any discussion. Even he
The warmth is just a necessity.
"No, I haven't. According to Madam's instructions, I have never left the Young Madam." The servant said in a frightened voice, "Since the Young Madam left the border, I have been by the Young Madam's side, and the Young Madam has not asked for a slave.
After half a step away, she said that the Guan Mansion was too big and she was not used to living alone in a big house. She was a little scared and she had to be accompanied by a slave when she rested."
"What exactly happened that day?" Guan Yupeng frowned, "I heard from the servant who delivered the letter that everything seemed to be Yu Cheng's fault. Didn't Zi Ai have nothing at all?"
The slave girl immediately shook her head, "It was an accident. The eldest young lady has repeatedly told the slave girl that if the madam and the eldest young master ask about it, she must say that it is just an accident and has nothing to do with the second young master. However, she does not know that she is already pregnant."
She was pregnant, and the second young master just pushed him casually. There might be a stone or something on the ground, and it was normal for him to accidentally fall. But the slave was afraid that the lady would be unhappy and blame the slave for not trying his best, so he had to leave it at that time.
Tell you and your wife the truth."
Guan Yupeng looked back at the room where Xian Ziai was resting, then looked at the slaves, and asked: "Who were there that day? Did Ziai talk to Xuan Yi? How are the two of them doing?"
The servant hesitated for a moment and said softly: "There is Mr. Xuan and the young lady's sister, and there is a girl named Ruoshui. I heard that she is Mr. Xuan's sweetheart. She is very beautiful. She is similar to the young lady and her sister.
Very similar, especially to the eldest young lady’s sister. Unfortunately, with the marriage granted by the Queen Mother, she cannot marry a woman from the Daxing Dynasty. There is also a pair of strangers who look like they speak and dress from the Daxing Dynasty.
The person should be acquainted with the girl named Ruoshui. The eldest young lady seems to be a little angry with Mr. Xuan, probably because the marriage between Mr. Xuan and her sister is unclear. The slave heard that she was still because of this matter.
She scolded her sister. She said a few words, but the slave was just polite."
Guan Yupeng frowned and said indifferently: "It seems that mother is really worried."
"Later, the servant left with the young lady. It was the young lady who said goodbye first, saying that she was not feeling well and wanted to go back to the house to rest early. But the second young master did not want to leave. The servant was not too talkative. Seeing how the second young master was treating the big brother
The young lady's sister does seem to be kind to the princess she likes, and her attitude is very gentle. It is not unreasonable for the young lady to worry that the princess she likes will cause trouble to the second young master." The slave said softly, "After leaving the Zuixian Tower, in
Walking to the carriage, the slave heard that the eldest young lady advised the second young master not to associate with the princess he loved anymore, saying that it would be bad if the Queen Mother found out, and it would be even worse to let the princess who was going to marry the second young master know. The second young master might be
She was unhappy for a moment and said that it was a coincidence that she stretched out her hand and pushed the eldest young lady. The eldest young lady was only busy chasing the second young master and did not pay attention to the second young master pushing her. She probably had no foundation under her feet and fell down. "
The servant remembered that Xian Ziyi had repeatedly told her to tell the truth, lest Mrs. Guan would blame her for not being careful enough, especially the eldest young master would be angry. As long as she told the truth, nothing would happen.
It's too serious. Don't say that the second young master did it intentionally. Anyway, in one sentence, you should tell the truth and try to excuse the second young master in your words, so nothing will affect her.
Therefore, she chose to tell the truth, and also said in her words that Xian Ziai asked her not to blame the second young master for what she said. She knew that only in this way, Mrs. Guan would believe her words more and not blame the incident.
The blame lies with her, especially since the young lady lost the baby in her belly while she was serving him.
"Okay, you go back and serve Zi Ai." Guan Yupeng waved his hand, then turned and walked towards his mother's courtyard.
Guan Yucheng was chatting with Mrs. Guan, but he was just listening to his mother tell some details about the marriage. His father was not at home, and his father, who always had a lot of social activities, rarely had time to be at home. In fact, everyone knew that his father must be at his concubine's house.
In order to protect Mrs. Guan's face, Mr. Guan's concubines are kept in a separate courtyard outside and never appear in front of Mrs. Guan. As long as Mr. Guan doesn't tell the truth, they will stay in the house to rest for a while.
The lady also pretended not to know.
"Mom, haven't you rested yet?" Guan Yupeng walked into the room and said with a slight smile.
"Not yet." Mrs. Guan said with a gentle smile, "You have had enough intimacy with your own daughter-in-law that you have come to sit with your mother. Do you have something to teach me?"
"No way." Guan Yupeng sat down at the table, glanced at Guan Yucheng, and said softly, "Haier just asked the slave serving Zi Ai. She is yours. Naturally, he does not dare to tell lies. I heard what she means is true.
It was Yu Cheng who accidentally ended up like this, and Zi Ai kept interceding for Yu Cheng in words."
Guan Yucheng sighed and said with some guilt: "It's true that Yucheng was too careless. Brother, I'm really sorry for causing you to lose a flesh and blood."
Xian Ziyi, who showed weakness, and Mrs. Guan, who was unwilling to give up, were led into a trap from the beginning. After meeting the Queen Mother, what kind of excitement will there be?
