The courtyard is deep in spring

Chapter 86

"Your Highness, didn't the Master Taifu give you a book to memorize within three days?" Ye Zhaoqing said patiently: "Time is running out, Your Highness should go and memorize it!"

"Mother Concubine is not here, I want to spend more time with you." Li Yu said with a shy face, "Zhaoqing, look at the two of us now, how nice it is!"

Ye Zhaoqing raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said, "Then how will His Highness plan to deal with Master Taifu's homework inspection tomorrow?"

As soon as Li Yu heard it, the smile on his face suddenly decreased a lot. He glanced at Ye Zhaoqing with some headaches and said, "Zhaoqing, how did I find out that you have been mentioning my master recently? Can you stop talking about him?"

"No!" Ye Zhaoqing heard the words and said with a straight face: "Does Your Highness want Concubine Rong to come back, and the news I get is 'Your Highness studies and studies every day, and occasionally goes to see the Crown Princess' or 'Your Highness spends all day long Tired of being together with the Crown Princess, you don’t even care about your homework?’ If it’s the latter, I’m afraid Concubine Rong will be angry right away?”

Li Yu was a little dumbfounded when he heard the words: "Zhaoqing, you really think too much, right? The mother concubine is not such a stingy person, she won't care..."

"Wrong! She will definitely care!" Ye Zhaoqing shook his head, gave Li Yu a pitiful look, and said, "When a woman's greatest hope is her son, she will be afraid that he will be spoiled by others. You should be positive. Not to be fooled by female sex is what she wants to see the most!" As she said, she sighed and said, "Actually, I don't agree with Concubine Rong's idea of ​​a daughter-in-law candidate, she let me be the princess just temporarily Yes, it is to detoxify you, and when the poison on your body is completely detoxified, I can take off the title of Crown Princess."

Hearing this, Li Yu's expression tightened immediately, and he grabbed Ye Zhaoqing's hand and said, "No! You are my eternal princess! No one can take your place! I will never Allow the concubine to do that!"

"Your Highness, let go first..." Ye Zhaoqing gently pushed Li Yu's hand away, sighed and said, "The matter hasn't reached that point yet, don't think so much, just study hard! For me, okay?"

Li Yu looked at Ye Zhaoqing quietly for a while, and the feeling of nowhere to focus in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, but he didn't know what to do.

"Okay, I'm going to study." After a while, he nodded heavily, cast a reluctant glance at Ye Zhaoqing, turned around and strode out of the side hall.

……

Murong Mansion.

"Second Young Master, Shizi has been waiting for you in the water pavilion for a long time." Murong Jin had just sent Lin Xirong back to the Lin Mansion, when he entered the door, he saw his elder brother's personal servant Su Xi waiting for him outside the second door.

Murong Jin raised her eyebrows when she heard the words: "Brother is looking for me at this time? Are you sure?"

"Second Young Master, don't be joking, how dare I lie to you with this." Su Xi said solemnly: "The Master has been waiting for you for almost an hour, you should go! Otherwise, the Master will get angry..."

"Okay, I'll go now!" Murong Jin interrupted Su Xi, and walked towards the inner courtyard.

Su Xi shrugged, and then hurriedly followed.

Murong Mansion is located on the most important street in the west of the city, occupying almost half of the entire street. The area is naturally large. The water pavilion is located in the inner house. It will take a lot of time to walk there, but the scenery is the best in Murong Mansion. .

When Murong Jin hurried all the way there, he saw his brother standing in the pavilion with his hands behind his back from a distance, throwing fish food into the lake every now and then, and there was no servant girl around. .

"Brother, are you looking for me?" Murong Jin walked over and said.

Murong Shen didn't look back, but asked indifferently: "Finally you're willing to come back from the Lin family? It's just a young lady from the Xiangfu. You spent so long and still haven't caught up with her. You're so stupid."

"Brother, if you're looking for me, you're looking for me. Don't hurt others." Murong Jin rubbed his nose, walked over resignedly, and asked in a good-tempered manner: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Murong Shen finally rewarded him with a glance back at him, but that glance returned to seriousness: "I think that when you investigated Ye Zhaoqing before, you did not investigate carefully."

"How could it be..." Murong Jin was startled when she heard this, and said: "Besides discovering that she has something strange, I ordered someone to investigate her experience in the past ten years carefully, but because Ye The eldest lady has not been favored for more than ten years, and there are really few rumors about her in the market, except for the name of the broom star..."

"That's not what I'm talking about." Murong Shen shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Let's not talk about the Fenji Sword, the jade pendant can also be regarded as a coincidence, but Huahua's unusual dependence on her, I think it is not simple!"

Murong Jin thought for a while after hearing the words: "Brother, do you think Miss Ye went to rescue Huahua alone yesterday? I also feel very surprised, but seeing how affectionate Huahua is to her, I think it's actually nothing ..."

"No! It's not a coincidence at all!" Murong Jin shook her head violently after hearing this, and said, "Huahua is a tiger and a spirit beast. Over the years, countless people have tried to conquer it and get close to it, but all of them failed." It failed, and even I had to spend a lot of effort to make it listen to me a little bit, but that Miss Ye, she didn't do anything at all, and made Huahua seem to recognize her as the master ...Yes, it is to recognize the Lord!"

Speaking of this, Murong Shen seemed to see the moment when they left the Jokhang Temple, Huahua hid in the woods and looked at Ye Zhaoqing very reluctantly, watching them leave without blinking, moaning softly.Even people who dare not approach it at all can feel the deep attachment in the tiger's eyes. What is it if it doesn't regard Ye Zhaoqing as its master?
"But, big brother, it doesn't make sense!" Murong Jin frowned after hearing this and said, "Huahua used to be a pet domesticated by the Princess Anning, but the Princess Anning has been dead for so many years. Suddenly a little girl appeared, and Huahua even recognized her as her master... Do you mean that Huahua betrayed Princess Anning?"

"No! The beast's attachment to its first master cannot be erased no matter what." After hearing this, Murong Shen frowned deeply and said, "The problem is that Miss Ye However, no matter how hard I press her, she just refuses to tell the truth and always uses some lies to prevaricate me..."

After hearing this, Murong Jin couldn't help laughing: "Brother, finally there is someone who dares to prevaricate you!"

"Shut up!" Murong Shen gave him a cold look and said, "Helping me analyze the situation is the right thing to do!"

"Okay!" Murong Jin nodded, glanced at his brother, and sighed: "Hua Hua was raised by Princess An Ning, and now that Princess Anning is dead, she has fallen into Miss Ye's arms...Could it be, these two people Is there any connection between them?"

"That's for sure." Murong Shen nodded when he heard the words: "If it wasn't for this, I wouldn't have been investigating Ye Zhaoqing. However, she is like a mystery, no matter how hard I try, I can't find the slightest bit of it." The relationship between her... But, so much evidence points to her!"

Murong Shen frowned while thinking while talking, his face was full of confusion.

It was the first time for Murong Jin to see such an expression on his elder brother's face. In the past, Murong Shen was always calm and composed, no matter whether he was facing the outside world or facing his own people, he had never been seen as hesitant.

He couldn't help persuading him: "Brother, don't think about it if you don't understand it, and let everything take its course."

"No way!" Murong Shen shook his head when he heard the words: "If I don't find out about this matter, I won't be able to sleep at all!"

Hearing this, Murong Jin felt worried. He thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Brother, tell me, did we make a mistake in the direction of our investigation from the beginning? We always pay attention to Miss Ye, but we don't Pay attention to the Ningguo Hou Mansion behind her, if you go to the Hou Mansion to investigate, maybe you can find out something..."

"This method is good!" Murong Shen nodded immediately when he heard the words, with a hint of admiration on his face, but it quickly disappeared: "It's not difficult to find someone to break into Ningguohou's mansion, but I don't understand, investigating Ye Zhaoqing's past what sense?"

"Of course it makes sense!" Murong Jin raised his eyebrows and said, "At the very least, we can know what kind of person Miss Ye is. She is obviously Ye Chen's daughter, but she always pays attention to the affairs of Prince Huai's residence. It will break her leg, so it can be seen that she is unaware."

He paused and said, "If you put aside your identity, Miss Ye's behavior once made me think that Princess An Ning has returned! Because only she can get close to Hua Hua, and care about Fen Ji Jian... "

"Brother, what do you think?" After Murong Jin finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Murong Shen, only to see that his brother was looking at her with a very strange look.

He immediately took several steps back in fright: "Brother! What's the matter?"

Murong Shen stared at him for a long time, then suddenly turned his head and strode away.

"Brother?" Murong Jin stared blankly at the disappearance of his brother's back, and it took a long time to react, she couldn't help touching her nose and said, "Did I just say something outrageous?"

……

As soon as Concubine Rong's chariot arrived at the Jokhang Temple, someone came in to report: "Your Majesty, the second young lady of the Marquis of Ningguo is asking to see you!"

"Oh? In such a hurry?" Concubine Rong raised her eyebrows, her buttocks just touched the soft cushion, and the attendants on both sides were carefully rubbing her shoulders and backs for her. After half a day's journey, she was exhausted.

However, Concubine Rong has always been known for her kind temper towards others, so she was not angry at this time, she just took a sip from the teacup on the table and said, "Second Miss Ye has always been polite and sensible, so you are so eager to see me, so it must be a big deal. Invite her to come in!"

"Yes, ma'am." Zhao'er at the side immediately responded in a low voice, turned around and retreated cautiously.

A pretty Gong'e who was massaging Concubine Rong's shoulders said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, you have such a good temper! You are so tired, but you still have to entertain the person who doesn't open your eyes. It's really wronged you, Madam!" ..."

"Don't be wronged!" Concubine Rong let out a long breath and sighed: "Ye Xiangwan is the younger sister of the Crown Princess after all, so I still have to give this palace the face."

"Your Majesty, you are so kind to the Crown Princess." Zhao'er whispered.

Concubine Rong was noncommittal, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth for a while.

Soon, Ye Xiangwan came in from the outside accompanied by several palace people, and as soon as he entered the palace door, he knelt down respectfully towards Concubine Rong: "My daughter Ye Xiangwan, see Concubine Rong!"

"Get up!" Concubine Rong smiled and waved for her to get up, and asked, "Did Second Miss Ye just arrive at the temple?"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Ye Xiangwan, who was dressed in a blue silk skirt, was dressed up like a country, nodded without hesitation, and said without hesitation: "My daughter followed the carriage of the empress to go up the mountain! "

"Oh? Why is that?" Concubine Rong was surprised when she heard the words: "Why don't you go to rest first..."

Ye Xiangwan said in a deep voice, "Major, please turn your back to the left and right!"

Concubine Rong was startled when she heard the words, but soon a smile appeared on her face, she waved her hand indifferently, and the maids standing on both sides all bowed their heads and retreated.

"Okay, can you tell me your reason for coming now?" Concubine Rong glanced at Ye Xiangwan and said.

It's a pity that such a beautiful person is not Ye Zhaoqing.

But that's good too, since ancient times, her beauty has been a disaster, and her son's country, don't want to be touched by these foxy girls in the future!

Concubine Rong didn't realize at this time that she was actually looking at Ye Zhaoqing differently from the noble ladies in the capital.

"Your Majesty." Seeing that there was no one around, Ye Xiangwan finally became more courageous. She glanced at Concubine Rong and mustered up the courage to say what she had been thinking about for a long time: "My daughter is here to stop your empress. Let my eldest sister marry the prince!"

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Rong was stunned.

Before meeting Ye Xiangwan, she had thought about the purpose of this girl's coming here. She thought she was just a little girl who recommended herself to be Yu'er's side concubine. Just don't let her down, and promise to wait another two years for Yu'er to marry her as a side concubine, but what he didn't expect was that Ye Xiangwan came to stop his own sister!
This is really a big joke in the world!
Of course, Concubine Rong, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time and is used to intrigues, was not surprised. She had already seen that there was no sisterhood between the sisters of the Ye family. Otherwise, Ye Xiangwan would not I will come to myself specifically to say these things.

She underestimated her all of a sudden from the bottom of her heart.

Of course, Concubine Rong even underestimated Ye Zhaoqing. She believed that if there is a sister, there must be a sister.

However, her attitude was still very gentle, she didn't show any dissatisfaction, she still asked with a smile: "Oh, what reason do you use to stop it? And how confident are you that you can convince me?"

Speaking of this, she suddenly looked forward to it, wondering what kind of words Ye Xiangwan would say to slander her sister?She is really looking forward to it!

However, Ye Xiangwan didn't see the disgust in Concubine Rong's eyes. She took a deep breath and replied, "I'm not confident that I can convince you, but I have something to tell you!"

"Oh? What is it?" Concubine Rong's curiosity was finally aroused, and she glanced at Ye Xiangwan with great interest.
