The Favoured Medical Princess
Chapter 293-Stepmother
After Bai Muxiao put down the pen in his hand, he retired happily, leaving only a slender and beautiful back. In the breeze, the coat was fluttering, which was quite high.
The blue-haired girl at the desk dries the ink and took Bai Muxiao's poems to the Qionghua Pavilion. Some judges will first appraise them, but they will also copy a few copies to the guest table for reading.
The incense of the timing burned down a little bit. At this time, for the participating girls, most of them felt that the passage of time was too fast...
Seeing that Han Qixia didn't write at all, several people in Nangong Yue at the Qiushui Pavilion were also nervous for her.Although they knew that Han Qixia should not have the heart to win, but the confession is always not very good.
Yuan Yuyi looked at the incense stick inserted in the bronze tripod from time to time, hoping to block the wind and let it burn more slowly.
Fortunately, Han Qixia finally wrote while Xiang had a quarter left. Looking at her bright eyes, she finally let Nangong Yue's high-hanging hearts put down and laughed and talked again.
After a while, a blue-haired girl walked in with the copied paper and suddenly attracted most of the attention in the Qiushui Pavilion.
Na Ma introduced the lyricist first, and it was Bai Muxiao who was the first to submit the paper.
Following that, she read aloud: "A glass of wine with a new word, the old pavilion weather last year. When will the sunset go back? Helplessly, the flower fell, and the acquaintance of Yan came back. Xiaoyuan Xiangjing wandered alone."
Although all the women in the Qiushui Pavilion were young, they were all children who had studied since they were young. Among them, there were many literati families like Nangong Yue. Bai Muxiao's words immediately caused a stir in the Qiushui Pavilion.
Over there, I heard a Mrs. Hanlin say with admiration: "There is no choice but to let the flowers fall, it seems that acquaintances have come back from Yan... wonderful, really wonderful!"
"This white girl is really talented." Another lady echoed.
"The so-called: real work and easy work, but hard work," a young girl analyzed admiringly. "The helplessness has fallen, and it seems that the acquaintances have returned from Yan... The couplet is basically made up of virtual characters, which is called the magic of the Fa. Nothing!"
"Yes, the better part is that this couplet is made up of imaginary characters, but it's full and intriguing... It's really valuable."
"..."
Not only was the discussion hot in the Qiushui Pavilion, but even the guests were discussing the poem, and they all felt wonderful.
Soon, another maid came and read the work of the second contributor, but it seemed like a mud bull entering the sea, without causing a splash of waves.
Upon seeing this, Fu Yunyan couldn't help but say: "Ayue, your cousin is really amazing."
Nangong Yue smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "That's natural, my cousin has always been great!"
At this time, the incense of the timing had been burned out, the girls in the venue withdrew in twos and threes, and the poems were presented to the judges and visitors.
In contrast to Bai Muxiao's excellent masterpiece, the poems of other girls are all overshadowed.
The Qiushui Pavilion also quickly selected ten girls to participate in the finals.Although there was no Han Qixia's name, Nangong Yue did not regret her, because even if they were selected, the finals were only for Bai Mu. Xiao Xiao accompanied him, if he abstained, and he didn't have enough temperament, he might as well lose the election!
But Princess Qi was obviously very upset. Huo Di stood up and even knocked into the chair behind.
She said in a cold voice: "Return to the House!" She headed downstairs and left the Qiushui Pavilion.
She went downstairs, and the ladies and girls on the second floor exchanged a look in their hearts. Some even couldn't help but whisper.
Nangong Yue also secretly helpless, only hope that Princess Qi will not anger Han Qixia after returning to the palace.
So far, today's two competitions are over, and tomorrow there will be other projects such as painting and calligraphy...
After the audience in Qiushui Pavilion had almost gone, Nangong Yue and Jiang Yixi also stood up and planned to go home.
But they walked out of the Qiushui Pavilion, only to find that there was a noise in the direction of the garden, and many people around them accelerated their pace in that direction.
The girls exchanged glances with each other, slowed down, and Lily volunteered to run and explore...
On the other side, in the center of the crowd, Bai Muxiao also looked at Han Lingfu, who was not far away under the green bamboo, and he was not seen for a few days. He was still so rich and handsome, and the silk was like ink, as the fairy in the painting had gone. come out.
At this moment, Bai Muxiao felt as if all the hustle and bustle around him was away from her...
Han Lingfu slowly approached her with a smile, and she seemed to see only her in bright eyes, "White girl."
Bai Muxiao stood blankly. She didn't expect Han Lingfu to disregard everyone's vision and personally come to Guozi Jian to pick herself up...After all, they were still in Baifu not long ago.
After that night, she never received any news from Han Lingfu.
She once thought he had given up!
After all, he was His Royal Highness, the third prince. What kind of woman wouldn't get it? Why should he bend over to himself again and again.
Unexpectedly, he came!
Bai Muxiao could clearly feel the envious and jealous eyes of the girls around her falling on her, her heart was both moving and complicated.
For this relationship, she gave her sincere heart. These days, her heart seems to be suffering in the fire, and finally she calmed herself with reason.However, after seeing him again for so long, Bai Muxiao seemed to be able to hear his sane shattering voice.
Why did he come? He finally decided to forget him...
"Bai Niang, your wonderful words today admire this palace." Han Lingfu's burning eyes fell on her. Bai Muxiao's word had already reached the hands of the students of Guozijian, and he was also fortunate to see him. Bai Mu Xiao's shock is absolutely gorgeous, and he can always make his heart move. How lucky is he to get such a woman's heart.
Bai Muxiao seemed to have recovered his voice, looked up at him, and Yingying blessed, "Have seen your Highness."
The eyes of the two were finally intertwined. For a time, no one was willing to move away. After a long time, Bai Muxiao gritted his teeth and said: "His Royal Highness, forgive the female girl for rudeness, the female girl...then retreat first."
Han Lingfu watched her leave intently, his Xiaoer would be soft-hearted, because he believed that she had him in her heart.
The lily outside the crowd could not help seeing the corners of his eyes, and ran back to Nangong Yue with strange expressions. They blessed him and said, "It is the palace of the three princes...it seems to come to pick up the white girl."
Yuan Yuyi blinked and couldn't believe her ears.
The third prince actually came to the Guozi prison to pick up Bai Muxiao? If this matter reached the ear of the third prince Cui Yanyan, what would she think?
Cui Yanyan, the three princesses, has done too much?
Thinking of the rumors that the three princes and the three princes in the Wangdu family did not have a round room a few days ago, several girls couldn't help but looked at each other, they couldn't help thinking: can this rumors be true?
But whether it is true or not, it has nothing to do with the few of them. At most, they just look at the excitement.
Looking over there, it seems that Bai Muxiao has left, and Han Lingfu left after standing for a while, and everything seemed to have subsided.
But everyone knows that this matter will inevitably spread, at least to the ears of the three concubines.
After saying goodbye to Nangong Yue, Fu Yunyan and others, he got on a Zhulun and returned to the palace.
Zhu Wheeler was still running on the streets of Wangdu, but at this time, an uninvited guest drove a carriage, and arrived at the door of the Wang Mansion.
A middle-aged man in his early forties looked tired and went down the carriage, knocking on the corner door beside the door.The porter opened the door and looked at the identity of the person.
The middle-aged man said busyly: "Your surname You is the governor of southern Xinjiang, but at the order of the princess, he came to the king to give money to the prince."
Is the other party sent by the little princess of the concubine, or the steward of the southern palace?
The porter looked at each other for a while and said, "Ye Zi Ye and Shi Zi Fei are not in the house. You..."
His voice had just dropped, but the tour manager was "slammed down" and knelt down to the ground, knocking his head at the gate of the palace.
"Shiziye, the young man is guilty, and he also asks Shiziye to guilt..." You Guan Shi said with tears and a snot. "The princess ordered the emperor's will and escorted the two kings of silver, but he didn't want to meet Yushan The gangster, the small one took the lead to protect the silver two, but was still robbed of half... The small guilty, smashing the errands." Youguan said while shaking his head heavily, his forehead was bruised.
The porter didn't think that the tour manager would actually come to this trick, and he was dumbfounded and didn't react.
Youguan cried and cried, "Sister Shizi, the little guilty, failed to keep other silver, and urged him to see the little man who had experienced a lot of hardships and nearly lost his life. This was the king's share, you will see The small side!"
"You, you..." The porter gritted his teeth, but he had to be patient. "You are in charge, just let you wait for a moment, as for this? Is there anything to say, it's not too late to wait until Lord Shizi comes back."
The movement in front of the Zhennan Royal Palace quickly attracted many passers-by to watch. After a while, they were surrounded by good people, whispering and whispering.
"What's the matter, this elder sister?" the latecomer asked unclearly.
A black and thin aunt immediately replied enthusiastically: "Princess Zhennan sent silver to the king of Zhennan, but he was robbed by the bandits and the silver was robbed. The manager who sent the silver was guilty at the door of the palace..."
"Originally, this mountain bandit is really rampant..."
"The courage is so big that even dare to snatch things from the palace of Zhennan!"
"..."
You Guan Shi saw more and more passers-by, and he was secretly happy, but there was a choked voice in his mouth: "Yinzi was robbed, the small one sent a letter to the princess, and the princess was in pain!" Shiziye, even if he smashes the pot and sells iron, he will get the money and give it to Shiziye, and ask Shiziye for a few days..."
He didn't mention the issue of "returning money", he only said that it was to give silver to Xiao Yi. This is not the world's dudes in the ears of others, asking for money from the family, and the attitude of traveling management, obviously this " "Debating" is not ordinary "requesting"... For a time, many people have a picture of unfilial sons beating and scolding their father and mother and snatching money.
The porter's entire face was white, and then let the tour manager say that, Shiziye no longer has to be a man, but Shiziye and Shizifei are not now...
Nangong Yue's Zhu wheeler also arrived at the street at this time. When he heard the noise outside, he asked Lily to take a look.
Not long afterwards, Lily came back in a hurry, returned to the posture of the tour manager, and said indignantly: "What mountain robbers steal silver, ghosts believe! Actually dare to ruin the reputation of the princes and princes. The princess is really united. sinister!"
As she said, she rubbed her fists and hated: "Huh, I want to be a bitch and want to set up a virgin arch. There is no such cheap thing in the world." Then she looked at Nangong Yue and offered to ask , "Sister-in-law, it is better to let slaves go out to teach this lesson..."
Nangong Yue narrowed her eyes slightly, and Xiao Fang's attitude was almost what she expected.If the little Fang surrendered, she might have to worry that the play could not be continued.
Xiao Fang, how to treat Ayi in this way for so many years, can it be cancelled by just paying back the silver!
Nangong Yue raised her lips and said in a good mood: "It is not appropriate for you to come forward, let Zhu Xing go. Tell Zhu Xing..."
Nangong Yue instructed me carefully that Lily smiled with a smile, and she was quite eager to try.
"Go ahead."
It’s really cheap Zhuxing... Lily was reluctant to make a nuisance, but she immediately responded: "Yes, Princess Shi. The slave-servant will inform Zhu Xing." After that, she hurried off the carriage and entered the house from the side door. Zhu Xing went.
In fact, even if Lily didn't go to Zhu Xing, Zhu Xing had already got the news. Lily just met him when he entered the front yard and told Nangong Yue's meaning...
When Zhu Xing brought people to the door of the palace, it was already noisy outside, and the performance of the tour manager's excellent singing attracted more and more people to come and watch. It's like a vegetable market.
The tour manager was still kneeling there, watching more and more people, feeling secretly in his heart, and whispering again: "Sen prince, even if you want to hit a penalty, just fine the smaller one, please don't blame the princess On the body, the princess no matter what you say, she has raised you since childhood, and has nurtured you for more than ten years. There is no credit or hard work. Please also see the past mother and child sentiment. Yes! Please see the small side, don’t keep the small side out like this..."
Zhu Xing strode out of the palace, his face gloomy as if to drip water, and he unconsciously released a murderous air.I really want to step forward and kill this bastard.
It's really a bitter thought to lie nonsense here, intending to impose the name of impunity that forced the stepmother on Shizi!
Fortunately, there is a concubine, or else...
When the porter saw Zhu Xing coming, he secretly relieved and hurriedly said, "Zhu Guanjia..."
Zhu Xing raised his hand and signaled that he understood, and then said to You Guan Shi with a sullen face: "You Guan Shi, right? I heard you asked to see Ye Ziye?"
"Yes, yes..." You Guan kneeled on the ground and looked at Zhu Xingdao with a look of awkwardness, "But is Shizi Ye now willing to see the small one?"
Zhu Xing snorted: "You said, you said that you came to the king to send silver at the order of the princess, and you met a mountain bandit on the way?"
"Yeah, yeah, the small ones tried hard to protect, and they only kept these two big boxes." You Guan said in a hurry.
"A nonsense!" Zhu Xing suddenly pulled up the volume and said angrily, "How can the princess make you move across the market with a few large boxes of silver? If the princess wants to return the silver of the prince, you can carry the silver ticket on the road lightly..."
Zhu Xing deliberately used the word "return" to deliberately increase the volume.
The onlookers were also thoughtful when they heard the words. Someone immediately said to the friends next to them: "Yeah, this southern Xinjiang to Wangdu is thousands of miles away, with a few big boxes of silver swaggering across the city, isn't this a clear call for someone to grab it?"
"It makes sense."
"I think there is something wrong with it." An aunt said lively, "You just heard that, this Princess Zhennan came to "return" the silver! So, the last time the Princess Zhennan heard about the invasion of his stepson In the industry, it’s really a good thing to put money in India!"
"It is said that if there is no industry that invades the world, where will it take thousands of miles to return the silver!" A middle-aged fat man nodded aside.
"It seems that this palace is no different from ordinary people!" a gray-haired old lady sighed, "The saying goes, there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather..."
These words naturally passed into the ears of You Guan Shi, and his heart sank. How did the outsider's reaction differ from the princess and his expectations! How could everyone say that the princess invaded the world's industry, this kind of Isn't it already known to everyone? How is this possible!
Shi Zi Fei is like a god! Zhu Xing secretly exaggerated her family Shi Zi Fei, narrowed her eyes and looked at You Guan Shi in suspicion, Shen Sheng said: "Wouldn't it be you who took the opportunity to guard against theft?"
"No, there is nothing!" You Guanshi was so scared that his face was white, and there was a cold sweat and a chilling piece behind him. "Zhu Guanjia, it is really the princess who sent the small child to the king with the silver, but accidentally encountered a bandit... …"
"If there is such a thing, you will know it after the official mansion is checked." Zhu Xing interrupted the tour affair coldly and raised his hand. "Come, tie me up! As for these two big boxes of silver, just In front of everyone, it was clear on the spot, so that everyone could bear a witness, so that they would not understand later."
"Good!" someone immediately shouted, "we are willing to be a witness."
"Just steward Zhu, just order it."
"..."
Many onlookers also nodded their heads in agreement, all in a mood.
Here is a lively look! Is it the dispute between the mother and son between the stepmother and the stepson, or is there a Diao who guards against theft from the King's Palace in Zhennan?
Tomorrow this talk stand can have new topics to talk about!
"No, you can't be like this!" You Guanshi never thought that he would bear a crime of collusion with a bandit, and the whole person bounced from the ground, "I don't... Um!"
Before he finished speaking, he was shut up by the two guards brought by Zhu Xing and cut his arms back behind him.
"Um... um..." The tour operator murmured anxiously there, and the whole figure fell into the bone as if it had fallen into the ice cave.
Zhu Xingming people opened two large boxes on the spot, and the silver in the white flowers dazzled people's eyes under the sunlight.
Zhu Xing made the count on the spot, only three thousand two.
The onlookers were in an uproar, and there was much discussion:
"The manager just said that he was robbed by the mountain bandits? Wasn't it three thousand two?"
"The property of the grandfather is only six thousand two? The old man who made silk in our hometown can earn five thousand two a year!"
"You are stupid! If you were Princess Zhennan, would you spit out all the money that you finally got?"
"Just say..."
The actual number is probably much more than six thousand two!
I am afraid that ordinary people haven't seen even a hundred or two silvers in their lifetime, let alone tens of thousands of silvers, or even more, they could not help but take a breath.
The more they talked and the more they talked, the more they exaggerated, and unconsciously, they all decided that Princess Zhennan was at least greedy for 100,000 children, no, one million two!
The imperial concubine said that people's words can be described as the best weapon if they are used well! Zhu Xing looked at this scene happily, but the face was not obvious, and he said angrily: "Such a slave, even dare to guard against theft, I must It’s the letter to write to the princess!” He waved his arm and ordered to the guard, “Go, send this Diao to Jingzhao Mansion!”
Zhu Xingming's guards tied up the tour operator with a rope, and then rode himself with the guard to let the tour operator drag the rope to follow behind, and went all the way to Jingzhao Mansion.
Those onlookers are still waiting for the next decomposition, and most of them trot and follow.
This team was vast and attracted more and more onlookers along the way. In the end, even those who didn't know the reason were also behind the team. They hadn't arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, which had already alarmed Jingzhao Mansion.
After hearing what happened, Yin Zhaojingfu's entire face was black.
This will become very difficult to deal with every time you have a relationship with King Shizi of Zhennan...
Jing Zhaofu Yin Zheng thought about whether he had retired from his illness, and the bearded head had hurriedly ran: "Master, the steward of the Zhennan Wangfu has arrived at the door of the Fuya..."
It was too late to hide.
Jingzhaofu Yin can only meet in person in the lobby, and pretends to be casual, "Zhu Guanshi, you are..." said, and looked at the bound tour operator with a puzzled look.
Zhu Xing then explained the ins and outs of the matter, and a guard kicked a kick behind the knee of the tour manager, and the tour manager kneeled down in embarrassment.
Zhu Xing finally clenched his fist and said: "Master Fu Yin, our King of Zhennan also doesn't want to injustice the innocent person, so this person will be handed over to the adult. I hope that the adult will investigate clearly, or give an explanation to Shizi Ye!"
Jing Zhaofu Yin secretly complained, but he could only smile and instructed the head of the beard to take the people down, and then said righteously: "Zhu Guanjia, please also give a word to Shizi Ye, the scumbag will be dealt with impartially." Thinking: This is obviously the family affairs of the King's Mansion in Zhennan. What come to him for Jingzhao Mansion? Either look for the King of Zhennan, or go to the Emperor. How is it? Not to mention that the princess is still far away in southern Xinjiang!
After Zhu Xing finished the order of the imperial concubine, he quickly left Jingzhao Man with his men. When the onlookers came to an end, they gradually dispersed.
But people are gone, but this farce is still fermenting, and it has been passed on from word to word, ten times, ten times...
Not only did the storytellers in Wangduli talk about the two or three things in the palace of Zhennan after falling behind, and even many theaters turned it into a playbook and sang around, and those scholar scholars were even vocal...
In the Fufengyuan, Lily was talking about a popular playbook. Nangong Yue heard it very interestingly and chuckled and fell on Xiao Yi's shoulder.
Xiao Yi, who would have missed this good opportunity, immediately reached out to hug her slim waist, only to feel that her luck today is really good!
Lily saw that the princess of the world listened pleasantly and spoke more happily. He said that there was a cup of tea. Finally, he took a long breath and said brightly, "The princess of the princess and the princess are probably going to be spread all over. The whole day is rich!"
Previously, the stepmother's invasion of the home was troubled, but it was only limited to the vicinity of Wangdu, but now, these popular dramas are out, the dramas are sung, plus the words of the literati scholars. 'S notoriety will only continue to spread.
Nangong said with a frown, "The emperor ruled the world, and the days of Taiyu were peaceful. How could there be such a bold bandit!" she said, and she couldn't help laughing.
The emperor has a good face. After he succeeded to the throne for several years, it has been a series of continuous wars. Now the battles in the south and the north have calmed down one after another. However, there have been rumors of the Dayushan bandits. This kind of hearing is an excuse. I am afraid that in the eyes of the emperor, he was deliberately provoking his imperial power.
Xiao Yisheng was afraid that she would choke on her smile, and he caressed her back and waved her hand to Lily.
Lily looked at the sticky two, quietly retreated, and closed the door thoughtfully.
Outside the door, she whispered in a boring manner. With Shiziye, Shizifei had no time to chat with them.
Nangong Yue raised her head with a smile, and said to Xiao Yi: "Ai Yi, most of the Zhuangzi and shops in the north have been recovered, and I plan to sell three of them." After the emperor officially announced his intention, Nangong Yue was too lazy to control whether the Zhennan and Wang couples were willing to return these industries, so they ordered people to take them back.
Xiao Yisi didn't care. "You decide what's going on at home."
Nangong Yue leaned on his shoulder and said, "These three shops have been tossed by the successor to the princess. Instead of spending effort to rectify, it is better to sell a price and use this money to fill the military pay. I will care."
Xiao Yi's peach blossom eyes were full of Nangong Yue's figure, and she said with a frown, "Grandfather will boast that I have a vision, and I can actually get such a capable wife!"
Nangong Yue lifted her chin and proudly said, "Of course!" She paused and said again, "After the princess has occupied the mother's position in the town of the princess, it has been too long..."
Xiao Yi was very distressed and thought about his grief. If the smelly girl didn't marry him, she didn't need to be so attentive, but even then, he couldn't let go of her, but hugged her more tightly.
As expected by Nangong Yue, when the emperor learned of this farce that happened in front of the Nanwang Mansion in Wangdu Town, he was furious and immediately ordered the Jingzhao Mansion to investigate the matter closely.If there is such a bold act in Dayu territory The bandits will send troops to squash and fight for the people.
Jing Zhaofu Yin Teyi came to explore Xiao Yi's tone on this matter, and was sent away with the sentence "when the safety of Dayu people is the most important", and the tour manager was left in Jing Zhaofu in the name of assisting in handling the case. yamen.
As this matter became more and more heated, the preliminary contest of the Jinxin Club ended, and the ladies who obtained the qualification will participate in the final one month later, and will decide the piano, chess, book, painting, poetry, royal, etc. The leader of the six items.
The capital of each Jinxin meeting is the most outstanding woman in the contemporary era, with both virtue and talent, and Liufang Dayu.
The difference between this session and the previous one is that the final has not yet begun. Bai Muxiao’s "Helpless Flowers Fall, Seeing the Return of Yan Yan" has already been chanted among the literati Mo Shi. Anyone who has read this term, They all praised that it was a strange woman who had never seen her eyebrows for a hundred years!
In the Minghua Palace where the three princes lived, Cui Yanyan took the word written by her bridegroom, and the paper had been crumpled with wrinkles, but she was angry.
Han Lingfu personally went to Guozijian to pick up Bai Muxiao. She had heard that although she had not entered the door, Bai Muxiao's name was a "concubine" set by the emperor, and was humiliated by a concubine.
Cui Yanyan took a deep breath and asked, "Where is your highness now?"
The bridegroom maid said timidly: "Your Highness is in the study, can you ask the slave to please?"
"Can you please get it?" Cui Yanyan sneered, waiting for the three princes to change their mind seems useless, she had to take the initiative to attack.
Cui Yanyan "teng--" had to stand up and said, "I will go in person."
The study room of Minghua Palace was tightly closed, and there were two little eunuchs guarding the outside. When he saw Cui Yanyan, he had just saluted and hadn't spoken yet. There was a sound of the cup being smashed hard in the study room.
Cui Yanyan was shocked, knowing that today is by no means a good opportunity to speak.
At the moment, in the study, on the ground was a torn cup and splashed tea, and Han Lingfu confirmed again in shock: "You mean that the father emperor has allowed the five emperors to be the prince?"
