royal girl

Chapter 232 Which Prince
Everyone's eyes fell on Concubine Wei. It is probably not a small matter to scare a dignified concubine like this.

"Meilin...Meilin..." Wei Fangfei stammered anxiously and couldn't even understand her words. She looked at Huiyu without the disgust of the past, but with a little more hope.

"Merlin?" Mrs. Luo did not wait for Huiyu to speak, but she spoke first, "Didn't Princess Jing invite everyone to enjoy the plum blossoms?"

Huiyu turned around and looked at Mrs. Luo, with a bit of hesitation on her face, and was about to say no, but saw Mrs. Luo had stood up, and walked out tremblingly holding the lady's hand, look at this The attitude is that we must go to see the excitement.

"Mrs. Tai." Hui Yu hurriedly walked a few steps to stand in front of Mrs. Luo, "This feast is not over yet, so it's better to go and see after eating to your heart's content."

"The old lady is getting old, so she can't eat much, but she drank a lot and just went to let go of the alcohol. Since Princess Jing invited us to enjoy the flowers, will she not let us go now?" Mrs. Luo Madam looked at Huiyu with a smile, and Huiyu had the tendency to walk away without saying a word.

Mrs. Luo's sudden arrival was already strange, and she was chatting and laughing with Princess Jing before, but it was really like good relatives walking around with each other.Unexpectedly, now Mrs. Luo seems to be a different person suddenly, and immediately confronts Concubine Jing.

Huiyu's face was very ugly, and she wanted to persuade her, but she heard Xia Bingyu take two steps to her side and said slowly: "Fourth siblings, since Mrs. Luo is so interested, why bother? The sun is just right for viewing flowers, what do you think?"

Turning around, Huiyu stared at Xia Bingyu, their eyes met, their mouths were smiling, and their eyebrows and eyes were also curved, one was as gentle as a spring breeze, the other as gorgeous as a scorching sun.

"It's indeed a pleasing day." Huiyu said in response, her eyebrows unchanged.

Others looked at Huiyu, and felt that Princess Jing was going to vomit blood with anger at this time. They knew that there might be something in Meilin that was not suitable for everyone to watch, but Mrs. Luo was relying on the old to sell the old, and Princess Ning was aggressive.

"Whether it's good to appreciate flowers, appreciate people, or appreciate the messages in Beijing, who hasn't mentioned anything shameful. Speaking of which, Princess Ning is famous, but there is still Dong Concubine, mother and child who were hit by a carriage and endangered their lives." It can be seen that Princess Ning has been through this kind of thing a lot, so she doesn't take it seriously." Mrs. Dong Er sneered, and stood beside her daughter, squinting at Princess Ning, with a look of contempt appearance.

Mrs. Dong's words really didn't give Xia Bingyu any face, and Dong Wan was also involved in the words. Mrs. Luo is Dong Wan's grandmother, and the eldest lady is Dong Wan's mother. I can't stand it anymore.Second Mrs. Dong didn't want to say anything, but if she opened her mouth, a bloody storm would hit her face.

Mrs. Xing was also standing beside my sister-in-law at this time, looked at Mrs. Luo with a smile, and said softly: "Last time I heard that Mrs. Tai held a majestic wedding for Mrs. Qin. Speaking of it, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, but in the end it is closer to the biological one. Poor Mrs. Qin Er fell ill after her daughter got married, so the daughter who has been holding her in the palm of her hand for more than ten years, in this life... Hey, don't say Forget it. In the early years, I heard that Mrs. Tai is a person who is very good at managing the family. Now I see that the rumors are true. It turns out that Mrs. Tai can not only take care of her own family affairs, but is also very enthusiastic about other people's affairs. , this junior is really ashamed of himself."

Mrs. Luo forced the Second Mrs. Qin to marry Qin Hanqing to Song Maocai, a dandy. It has been rumored in Beijing for a long time, but everyone knows it. After all, this is not a glorious thing. Who would like to say it to offend others? .It is obvious that Mrs. Luo's behavior today is too tough. As the master, Princess Jing is not easy to bully guests, but Bei'an Hou Mansion and Mrs. Dong Er do not intend to stand idly by.At this time, everyone looked at the pair of sisters-in-law, and really felt that it was not a family that did not enter the house. Listening to what they said, it really poked people's hearts.

However, to be honest, Mrs. Luo and Concubine Ning did something wrong, and they were too impatient to want to watch people's excitement so clearly.

If you don't look good when you eat, you will offend others.

Seeing that things were about to freeze, Huiyu smiled and said with a sigh: "Since everyone wants to enjoy the scenery, it's okay, let's go now, Mrs. Tai, please pay attention to your steps, auntie It's hard for you to take the trouble to support Mrs. Tai."

Huiyu took the lead and walked out. Concubine Wei didn't say a word since just now, and stood obediently beside Huiyu. At this time, she followed Huiyu as she walked out, but her footsteps were still a little frivolous, and she still looked at her. It can be seen that the mood has not stabilized at this time.

Mrs. Luo was so excited by Mrs. Xing's words that her blood almost surged. Before she could say a few more words, Princess Jing quickly led the people out, but she had no choice but to give up.

The eldest lady supported Mrs. Luo Tai on one arm, and Mrs. Zhaoguo didn't look too good to support the other arm at this time. Although Princess Jing and Mrs. Xing didn't talk to Mrs. Xing about her, but she really I feel a little ashamed.The mother-in-law arrived suddenly today, she thought about it carefully while sitting in the living room, and felt that this matter had something to do with her eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Ding Guogong.Not long after receiving the post about viewing flowers in Prince Jing's Mansion, the eldest sister-in-law came back and closed the door. She didn't know what to tell her mother-in-law, but she knew it after seeing today's scene.

Everyone walked forward with their own thoughts, and Concubine Wei pointed to a direction not far from the Mei Lin and said, "It's over there..."

Huiyu kept walking towards that side without any shyness at all, and everyone was amazed in their hearts. They didn't expect Princess Jing to be so open-minded. If something really happened in the forest, it would hurt her. Is it really good to bring so many people to watch the reputation of Prince Jing's mansion?

At this time, Xueqi and Xueying who were following Huiyu remained behind Huiyu, while the other walked a few steps quickly to explore the way in the woods.

The plum grove in Prince Jing’s Mansion is not that big, but it’s superior in its elegant scenery. The pruned plum trees look quite proud. When everyone stepped into the forest, most of them were attracted by the cloud-like plum blossoms. mind.Not long after walking through the plum grove, before seeing anyone, they faintly heard crying coming from ahead, and everyone stopped involuntarily.

The reason why everyone stopped was not that they didn't want to watch the excitement, but that the crying was so sad and sad that it made people's hearts sour.At this moment, everyone saw that the girl who was following Princess Jing went to explore the way, and was running back with a little panting. After saluting to Princess Jing, she said in a particularly embarrassing way: " Concubine, it's... the cousin is in front... Concubine Yang is accompanying her, the cousin is not feeling well, so she cried sadly, it's nothing serious." After Xueying said it was nothing serious , and even glanced at Princess Ning from the corner of her eyes.

Although Xueying's actions were not very obvious, but the people present were more or less savvy people, and they were confused for a while. What does Princess Ning mean by this?
"Cousin?" Huiyu called out in surprise, "Why is she here, shouldn't she be in the backyard?"

"I don't know too well, the maidservant, Biao girl was just crying so hard that she couldn't utter a complete sentence, and...and..." Xueying leaned forward and whispered something in Huiyu's ear as she spoke, and the crowd cheered. Seeing Princess Jing's expression changed instantly.Then everyone saw Huiyu turning around slowly and looking at them, especially when her eyes fell on Concubine Ning like a knife, they only heard her say: "Although family ugliness should not be publicized, Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Concubine Ning is so eager to share my worries, at this point, I have no choice but to ask everyone to be a witness. Please come with me, but no matter what you hear or see later, please keep quiet and calm , so we can figure out what's going on."

When Xia Bingyu heard Xueying mention the word "cousin", she was still a little bit happy in her heart. She always felt that Yue Shuiqing could finally do something serious, but Xueying just glanced at her, and Dong Huiyu said such a sentence on purpose , a faint bad feeling came to my heart, I wanted to refuse, but just now I followed Mrs. Luo's instigation, if I want to go back at this time, I will be ashamed.

But if she went, she would feel extremely uneasy.

Huiyu wouldn't give Xia Bingyu a chance to do something. At this moment, she was leading the way with two maids and Concubine Wei, followed by Mrs. Dong and the two wives of the Xing family.The rest of the people looked at each other, and everyone's eyes fell on Mrs. Luo and Xia Bingyu. Mrs. Luo's expression was a little ugly at this time, but she was still pushing her heels up. Xia Bingyu couldn't get off the tiger. You can only follow along.Zhang Yuqiong looked at Xia Bingyu's back, and Dong Huiyu's back in front, but suddenly remembered the time when King Ning broke Master Wen's chess game that year, and Huiyu said firmly that there was a way to break the matter.

After so many years, Zhang Yuqiong seems to have returned to that year, but now Dong Huiyu is more calm than before, and she does things more and more unsightly, but she knows how she can make her family ugly so brightly if she is not sure Look, it must be that girl who came back with extremely useful information, that's why Huiyu intentionally included Mrs. Luo and Xia Bingyu in what she said just now, and made them join the army instead.

There were dozens of people cheering, shuttling through the plum grove, and after walking for dozens of breaths, Huiyu stopped, and what appeared in front of everyone was a small rockery.Although this rockery is not big, it is one or two feet high. There are caves in the belly, which can be freely entered and exited by people.

The crying came from this cave, probably because they heard the movement outside, the crying in the cave gradually weakened.Although the voice was weak, the suppressed crying was even more pitiful.

At this time, Concubine Yang, who had shown her face before, also came out with a white face, and when she saw Huiyu, she went down to salute.Huiyu stretched out her hand to support her, and looked at her, "Is she still there?"

Concubine Yang nodded, "Yes, but it looks like he drank a lot of wine, and the smell of alcohol is very strong."

"Let's invite people out first." Huiyu said bluntly, reaching out to take off the cloak she was wearing and handing it to Concubine Yang.

Concubine Yang hesitated for a moment but reached out to take it, turned around and went into the cave again.

At this time, everyone had already vaguely guessed what had happened, and the gossip factor was also blazing at this time.

Not long after Concubine Yang entered, she heard a weak female voice from inside, "If I don't go out, I'd rather hit my head to death. After something like this happens, how can I see people in the future? Boom, I'm not alive!" It's..."

"Wangfei is outside, no matter what happens, Wangfei will make decisions for you." The persuasive words of Concubine Yang also came out faintly.

The one inside was crying uncontrollably, clamoring to prove his innocence by death, and the other was persuading her softly and earnestly, and it was as quiet as night outside for a while.

The people inside couldn't come out, and the people outside couldn't go in. It became a stalemate for a while, and the atmosphere was wonderful.

Huiyu stood there as straight as a green pine, and those standing behind her looked at her spine, and they seemed to feel a little stiffness in the bones.Huiyu didn't speak, and the rest of the people were not willing to put their faces up to others because of the sharp tongue of Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Xing, so they simply waited and watched.As a result, Xia Bingyu, who was pointing at the crowd to ask if they couldn't bear it, became a little impatient.

Especially the look that Xueying gave her just now made her feel uneasy all of a sudden.

"what happened?"

Ji Qiyu's unique icy voice rang out in everyone's ears, like thunder, and everyone couldn't help but stare back in shock.

Unlike the neat court clothes in the past, today's Ji Qiyu seems to have returned to the past, with wide-sleeved robes, white socks and wooden clogs, fluttering clothes and flying ink hair, coming slowly in the sea of ​​flowers.

Hui Yu tilted her head slightly, and seeing Ji Qiyu's approaching figure, she couldn't help but smile a little, and the sharp eyebrows became relieved in an instant.Even she didn't realize it, her breath became much gentler.

Her man, stepping on this sea of ​​flowers, his face like a banished fairy reflected that the plum forest had lost some of its color.

"Why is the prince here?" Hui Yu asked softly, but her eyes fell on Nanny You.

Mother You immediately took a step forward and said, "I beg your concubine to forgive me. It was the old slave who invited the prince. Earlier, the cousin girl told the old slave that she wanted to come out for a walk, but the old slave did not dare to stop the cousin girl. They also specially sent two little maids to serve. Unexpectedly, after a quarter of an hour, the two little maids found the old slave with tears on their faces, saying that the cousin girl was missing. When I met the prince, I didn't expect that the prince was also looking for Prince Ning, who had been drinking too much and disappeared, and a servant said that he saw the prince in the plum forest, and the old slave and the prince came all the way." Then they met Huiyu and the group. people.

When Mother You mentioned King Ning, Xia Bingyu's expression changed, and the expressions of everyone here were also very exciting.Especially when the voice of the "cousin girl" looking for death and life came out of the cave just now, and thinking about the missing King Ning, the truth was ready to come out in an instant.

Huiyu waited until Nanny You finished speaking, then looked at Ji Qiyu beside her and said respectfully, "My lord, my cousin is in this fake cave, but...she won't come out, and there's no way she can come out." Sighing, "Concubine Yang is trying to persuade her inside, but my cousin is crying all the time. Otherwise, if you talk to her, what you say will be more useful than the concubine."

Ji Qiyu looked down at Huiyu, his dark eyes were cold and silent, people who are not familiar with him will always be shocked by this illusion, only those who are familiar with him can see through the darkness that almost imperceptible depth.

"Are there other people in the fake cave besides my cousin and Concubine Yang?"

When Ji Qiyu asked such a question, everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly, Prince Jing came up and asked the most important question directly.In fact, what everyone is most concerned about is whether there will be a missing King Ning in this fake cave. The cousin of King Jing is dying of distress. Does it have something to do with King Ning?
"This..." Hui Yu frowned in embarrassment and looked at Ji Qiyu without saying a word.Ji Qiyu was the most suitable person to be the villain. Originally, Huiyu wanted to fight in person, but when Ji Qiyu came, it was obvious that she didn't want her to be the villain.

Ji Qiyu gave Huiyu an unhappy look, "Come here!"

"The slave is here." Miao Rongguang rushed out in an instant, and knelt in front of Ji Qiyu to obey the order.

"Go and see."

Concise and concise as always, with awe-inspiring killing intent, everyone just felt chills run down their spines.

"Yes." Miao Rongguang immediately got up, nodded to the two servants behind him, and then stooped into the fake cave.

"Ouch." Suddenly there was a cry of pain from the fake cave, and then Miao Rongguang angrily scolded: "Bold!" After a slight pause, Miao Rongguang's voice sounded again, " Forgive me, it's because these little bastards didn't see it clearly, are you okay, my lord? Why don't you hurry up and make amends to your lord, for ignorant things, this is a place where you can run wild?"

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of kowtow to plead guilty from inside, and it came out in a mess. Amidst the noisy sound, a sharp female voice suddenly sounded, "Which... lord?"

A few whispers came from the fake cave, followed by sobs slowly.

Miao Rongguang was Prince Jing's face-saving steward. He was in the cave at this time, and Yue Shuiqing came out wearing the cloak that Huiyu had let Concubine Yang bring in before, and was supported by Concubine Yang.Her black hair was slightly disheveled, her eyes turned into fountains of tears, her petite and frail body seemed to be supported by the wind in her movements, and the delicate breath seemed to emanate from her bones. Huiyu was also amazed when she saw it, she was really loved by someone. The one who had been trained did not cry or make trouble anymore, and stood beside Huiyu with his head slightly lowered, his face turned sideways and his shoulders trembling slightly, even the women felt a little bit of pity.

Concubine Jing's appearance is truly incomparable, Yue Shuiqing naturally knows it, but she knows that the side lines of her face are softer, and at this time she is facing everyone with a slightly drooping side face, which is really a kind of shock human feeling.

This was the first time Xia Bingyu saw Yue Shuiqing.

It's just that now she's out of the mood, and the only thing she worries about is whether the person in the fake cave is King Ning.

"Don't be afraid, cousin, the prince and I are here." Hui Yu held Yue Shuiqing's hand full of pity, and there was a bit of anger between her brows and eyes, only looking at Yue Shuiqing who was wrapped under Hui Yu's cloak The clothes look messy, there are so many pairs of eyes here, I am afraid that I have made up a big drama in my mind.

Yue Shuiqing just nodded, but didn't say a word, the tears fell down one by one like broken beads.The more so, everyone felt that this girl was really pitiful.

Huiyu took Yue Shuiqing's hand and looked at Ji Qiyu, "The lord entrusted his cousin to my concubine to take care of her, but I didn't expect that my concubine was entrusted by the lord. If today's affairs can't be done to my cousin, there will be more for me in the future." How face to meet the prince, how face to see the cousin?" Speaking of which, he looked at the fake cave again, with a bit of sternness between his eyebrows, "No matter who is in the cave, under the watchful eyes of everyone, my cousin has suffered such a cruelty." Wronged, if I can't have a good explanation, I will definitely not give up!"

At this time, Yue Shuiqing didn't have the cowardice, shame and anger on the surface at all, but she was shocked and frightened, and she never thought that things would turn out like this.She just wanted to meet King Ning. The little girl said that everyone would come to the Meilin to enjoy the flowers after the banquet, and said that this Meilin is connected to the front yard, and the princess asked her to go out to meet people, and she would have to wait for the banquet. That's why she had the courage to come over and take a look.They just arrived at Merlin and before they could get a firm foothold, they found that the precious piece of prohibition given to them by the princess had been lost. In a hurry, they could only ask the little girl to go back along the road to look for it. The little girl didn't walk for long. , I met a drunk man without thinking.Seeing his elegant figure, handsome eyebrows and eyes, looking at his clothes, and thinking that no one dares to control this person who can come and go here freely, her heart jumped "poundingly", thinking that this person It was King Jing.

Usually, she pays special attention to some small movements and expressions of the princess. Prince Jing has a deep affection for the princess, so she has the idea of ​​imitating the princess.Sure enough, she was right, the man really regarded her as a princess...but just now in the cave, Miao Rongguang actually said...that the man is King Ning!

What a thunderbolt!

She actually hooked up with her master, and it became a mere affair. Half of her current anxiety, shame, anger, and fear are real, so the people on the outside can't see anything wrong.

Mistakes have already happened, and she is a secret worker without a backing, so she can only grit her teeth and make mistakes, and there will be a way out, otherwise, there will be no future.

So when Concubine Jing held her hand and asked him to give her justice, she leaned against Concubine Jing weaker and weaker, as if she would faint at any moment, such a small appearance of holding on fell into the eyes of outsiders Here, it can only be regarded as that he really wants to seek justice.

Seeing Princess Jing getting so angry, everyone felt a little bit sad.Now I can figure it out a bit, this new cousin girl in Prince Jing's mansion has double filial piety, it's not good to have a serious banquet to introduce her to everyone, but Prince Jing and Concubine Jing don't want to wrong this cousin, So I thought of using the name of the flower viewing feast to let this cousin girl out to show her face first, so as to establish her identity.Who would have thought that such a mistake would happen on such a good day.

Should it be said that Prince Jing's mansion is unlucky or that the cousin girl's life is too bad?
"Don't worry."

Everyone saw the indifferent and ruthless Prince Jing holding the hand of his own princess with tenderness in his eyes and softly comforting him outside.

"Why are you not in a hurry?" Huiyu's face turned ashen, and she pushed Yue Shuiqing forward again, "Good girl..."

Huiyu didn't continue her words, Yue Shuiqing also choked up in a low voice in cooperation, the sad and miserable appearance of the pear blossom with rain really made people feel the apex of the heart ache.

Seeing King Jing's expression, everyone became even more ugly, and said to the fake cave: "Miao Rongguang, please come out!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone heard a burst of pushing and shoving from the cave, but soon a figure flashed out from the dark cave entrance. The first thing they saw was Miao Rongguang's face, and then Miao Rongguang's face. There seemed to be a person behind him, and everyone was stunned when they looked at it. That face was really familiar, wasn't it King Ning?
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xia Bingyu.

Xia Bingyu only felt the blackness in front of her eyes, and forced herself to hold her girl's hand tightly, telling herself that she couldn't fall down at this time, she had to hold on, hold on!
