Chapter 77: People Are Thinner Than Yellow Flowers
After Huai Mo Ran left the palace, he took a carriage and rushed to the Prince's Mansion.
Mrs. Huai received the news early in the morning and knew that Huai Moran was coming back, so she personally prepared some of her favorite meals and wanted to wait for her to come and give her a good meal. Unexpectedly, Huai Moran did not wait, but he did.
An imperial edict, a Shangfang sword, and Huai Moran’s title, Xuan Zhi’s Eunuch Liu specifically stated that Huai Moran would be in charge of the Shangfang sword for the time being.
Baili Yeheng was indeed the first prince in history to possess Shang Fang's sword, and all of this was thanks to Huai Mo Ran. For a time, the entire prince's residence was filled with a cheerful atmosphere. Those servants who usually looked down on Huai Mo Ran were now
I really have to be impressed by her.
In the xiaoxiang courtyard, when Xiaoxiao learned the news, a look of astonishment appeared on her face. Then she sneered and said, "I didn't expect that woman to be so powerful." As she spoke, she came to the desk and wrote something down.
, when she started writing, she read the content again, and then said coldly: "Huai Mo Ran, do you still want to act? Now I want to see what you have to say."
...
The carriage stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion. The butler had been waiting at the door early. As soon as he saw Huai Mo Ran get off the car, he greeted him respectfully. Huai Mo Ran was not surprised when he learned that the imperial edict had arrived. After all, the old emperor was rare for the one hundred thousand taels.
Gold, but she did not neglect it. In addition, she had always been curious about what the legendary Shang Fang Sword looked like, so she immediately let the housekeeper lead the way to the treasure house where Shang Fang Sword was placed.
Huaimo stepped into the threshold. The snow had stopped by this time, and the sound of sweeping snow could be heard in the courtyard. The busy servants saluted her respectfully, but she did not look at them twice.
Not used to it, but also used to it.
In the Prince's Mansion, she had been baptized by all kinds of looks, including contempt, disgust, disdain, and now...respect with fear.
She knew what these people were afraid of. Who wouldn't be afraid of a woman who could change the emperor's attitude toward the prince's palace once she entered the palace, who could kill countless zombies with just one move, or who could trigger a war with just one dance? What's more?
, now she is the first-grade imperial concubine. Even if the crown princess is replaced one day, she will still be one grade higher than the first-grade crown princess.
She didn't value this feeling of superiority before, but now she enjoys it. Who wants to be criticized all day long and pretend to be deaf? Before, she was not open-minded, she just didn't want to care about it, and she didn't have the ability to pursue it. Now,
However, she relied on her own efforts to crush those who despised her. Thinking of this, she smiled slightly. In fact, she was also a vain person.
After bypassing the long corridor and coming to the backyard, Huai Moran was introduced by the old housekeeper to a seemingly ordinary wing. There were two locks on the door of the wing, one new and one old. The new one looked like it had just been locked.
Yes, it can be seen that the old housekeeper is extremely nervous about Shang Fang's sword.
Huai Moran waited for him to open the door. When he looked up, he saw that the spotless room was filled with various exquisite gift boxes, precious vases, etc. On the wall opposite the door, in addition to exquisite reliefs, there were also
There is a long sword hanging. The long sword is more than a foot long and only as wide as the length of the little finger. There is a sapphire blue gem engraved on the silver-white hilt, which is very dazzling when viewed from a distance.
Huai Moran walked over and raised her hand to take down Shang Fang's sword. It was unexpectedly light. She couldn't help but frown and pulled out the sword. The sharp light made her unable to open her eyes for a moment, and she raised her lips lightly.
, her hand ### was on the sword, and the cold feel made her eyes light up. She couldn't help but admired: "What a good sword!" Unfortunately, it was a Shangfang sword.
Shang Fang's sword might not see blood for a lifetime. For Huai Moran, the weapon loses its application value and has no meaning. But...she closed Shang Fang's sword and immediately asked the old housekeeper to come over. She whispered
After explaining a few words, the old housekeeper looked surprised, and immediately said in panic: "I can't help it, Madam, if..." Before he could finish his words, he closed his mouth under Huai Moran's glance.
"If others find out, you will lose your head." Huai Moran left these words, put Shang Fang's sword back on the wall, turned around and left the room.
The old housekeeper responded obediently behind her, and when she was far away, he said helplessly: "Sigh... I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."
...
As soon as Huai Moran came out of the backyard, she saw a person waiting there, but it was not a good time. She was a little curious and asked: "Beautiful view, do you have something to say?"
Meijing's face was a little panicked, and Huai Moran became more and more curious, because Meijing was a very stable person. Except for the fact that she looked at loss when she was ridiculed by herself, she was very calm at other times. So, it seems that something really happened in the Prince's Mansion.
Something important and secret. Thinking of this, she frowned and said lightly: "Let's talk while we walk."
Meimei nodded gently and followed Huai Moran, but she never spoke, as if she didn't know how to speak. Until she was almost at the door of Haitang Garden, she muttered: "Your Majesty, I feel... Xiaoxiao
There is something wrong with the girl."
Huai Moran suddenly turned around, and immediately stared at the beautiful scenery like lightning. From the latter's serious face, she knew that he was not joking, so why did the beautiful scenery not dare to speak?
"What are you afraid of?" Standing in front of the arch, Huai Moran frowned.
Mei Meijing lowered her eyes, her face was a little more annoyed because of being seen through by Huai Mo Ran. She shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid of anything. I just hope that the empress will not go to war because the master is not here."
A mocking smile appeared on Huai Moran's face, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you worried that I will take advantage of Ye Heng's absence to get rid of Xiaoxiao?"
Meimei didn't say anything, but obviously, she had acquiesced.
Huai Moran snorted coldly, with a flash of disgust in his eyes, and said coldly: "If I really wanted to do something to her, why would I wait until today? You underestimate me!"
Meimei hurriedly knelt down and said with some annoyance: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I'm not looking down on you. I just know that what Miss Xiaoxiao has done deserves this punishment. I'm just afraid that your Majesty will be upright and wholeheartedly serve you."
For the sake of the master, it is self-defeating."
Seeing that she was not joking, Huai Moran couldn't help but asked curiously: "What does this mean?"
Mei Mei sighed helplessly and murmured: "Mei Mei went to the kitchen that day and saw a little girl serving Miss Xiaoxiao crying. It turned out that she knocked over Miss Xiaoxiao's bird's nest. I didn't know how to explain it. I looked at her pity, so
I asked someone to cook another bowl and took her there with me, only saying that I knocked it over, but who would have thought... I found a vulture flying away from the courtyard."
"Vulture?" Huai Moran's eyelids twitched, and a bad premonition suddenly emerged in his heart.
Meimei nodded and said: "Yes, it's the vulture. I didn't show anything at that time. I just waited until I left Xiaoxiang Garden and sent someone to carefully monitor Xiaoxiang Garden. It turned out that every now and then, the vulture would fall on Miss Xiaoxiao.
room, and then..." She darkened her face and stopped talking.
Huai Moran naturally guessed what happened next.
"Did you touch the vulture?" Huai Moran said with a frown.
Meimei shook her head: "Vultures are very alert and sensitive people, and they are likely to have a spiritual acquaintance with their owners. It would be a bad idea to alert the snake. I originally wanted to send someone to inform the queen, but I heard that you are coming today, so I wanted to tell you in person.
.”
A flash of admiration flashed through Huai Moran's eyes, and he raised his hand and said: "Get up. You did a good job. That vulture...bring it to me tonight for a look. You don't have to worry about arousing the enemy. To this day, it's better to
Just follow the plan."
Meimei stood up and saw Huai Moran's face was solemn. She couldn't help but feel a little uneasy and asked: "My queen, do you need to inform the master about this? What if Miss Xiaoxiao really does something... If the queen punishes her, the master will not be able to blame her."
"
Huai Moran waved his hand and said calmly: "That's all, why distract him with such trivial matters? What's more, we haven't found out anything yet, what if we misunderstand Miss Xiaoxiao?"
There was a look of helplessness on Meimei's face, and she added: "But where the vulture flies... is the residence of the man named Dongli. If it's really nothing..."
"Beauty, just pretend you don't know about this." Huai Moran suddenly reminded him, his tone gentle but stern.
Meili immediately closed her mouth. She looked at Huai Moran in astonishment. After thinking for a moment, she understood. She couldn't help but feel deeply moved in her heart. If Miss Xiaoxiao really had something, Huai Moran would definitely not tolerate rape, but...
She also doesn't want others to be innocently involved, otherwise Baili Yeheng will definitely hold Mei Mei accountable when he comes back.
Huai Moran didn't like this solemn atmosphere. She turned around and said calmly: "Come in quickly, my mother must be waiting impatiently." As she spoke, she had already entered the gate of Haitang Garden.
Mrs. Huai immediately came over with joy on her face: "Mo Ran, are you back? Come here quickly and let me take a look." Today Mrs. Huai wore a navy blue gown with simple totems outlined on it, still looking so gentle.
Although he looks very energetic, he looks very energetic.
Huai Moran felt relieved. It seemed that the beautiful scenery had taken good care of Mrs. Huai. She obediently allowed Mrs. Huai to pull her and look left and right. Mrs. Huai seemed to have to check Huai Moran carefully before she felt at ease. For a long time, she
Ningmei sighed and said, "Why have you lost weight again?"
Huai Moran felt a little helpless. Would it be that if we didn't see her for a long time, everyone would tell her she had lost weight when we saw her again? It's a good idea. She doesn't need to lose weight anymore.
Seeing that Huai Moran was silent, Mrs. Huai said worriedly: "Are you worried about the prince? You are worried because your mother knows that he went to the battlefield, but you have also heard that he won the victory and defeated the southern Xinjiang, which shows how brave he is.
He is good at fighting, and I think he will be back soon, so you don't have to worry."
Huai Moran was slightly stunned. Mrs. Huai's straightforward words made her suddenly understand what the complexity in Queen Ye He's eyes when he looked at her meant. It was not only because of the news that she had fallen out of favor, but also because Queen Ye He could see it.
In her heart, she didn't want her to miss this happiness.
Does everyone know that she secretly loves Baili Yeheng, and even misses her so much that she becomes thinner than Huang Hua? Is that so? Huai Moran couldn't help laughing, no wonder Baili Yeheng guessed it
She thought she had hidden her emotions so deeply. From this point of view, did he also know that he was lying when he said he "liked her a little"?
Thinking of this, Huai Moran even had the urge to dig a hole and bury herself. After all... in her opinion, how could a self-righteous person pretend to be serious?
"Mo Ran?" Mrs. Huai couldn't help but worry when she saw Huai Mo Ran giggle.
"Mom, I'm fine. I eat well, drink well, sleep well, and have never been worried. If you don't believe it, just ask Aao." Huai Moran came back to his senses, said with a smile, took Mrs. Huai's arm and walked to the wing.
go.
Mrs. Huai looked at Leng Ao with some suspicion. Leng Ao nodded slightly and said calmly: "Don't worry, Mom, Mo Ran is doing very well recently. Even if she wants to skip eating, we will not let her go."
Mrs. Huai nodded slightly and felt relieved, but there was still a worried look on her face: "Then why are you so thin? Is it because the food is not to your liking? Or is it because of something else?" After all, she was still worried about missing Huai Mo Ran.
Becoming ill.
Huai Mo Ran looked at the sky speechlessly, but suddenly sniffed her nose and couldn't help but said: "It smells so good." After that, she went straight to the dining room.
