Chapter 114 If you don't advance, you will retreat
When Concubine Jin saw the two coming, she immediately scolded angrily, "It's really two wild maids, leaving a group of people waiting for you here!"
The queen also asked anxiously, "Where have you been?" I'm very worried." Although it is not as scolded as Concubine Jin, it also means to plead guilty.
Ji Shuidong was about to speak when Yao Yulu pinched her hand and quickly explained, "Just now, Ji Chang fell down and cut his foot and delayed his time. Please forgive me."
After listening to this, the queen seemed to have no intention to pursue it. She quickly asked, "Go to the doctor and have a look. Why are you so careless?"
"Thank you, Queen." Ji Shuidong listened and thanked him quickly.
"Queen, how can these two people be so unruly?" However, Concubine Jin asked relentlessly.
"Yes, all of us have been waiting for a long time." Liu Feifei also added oil and vinegar to the side.
Yao Yulu is already very anxious at this moment. She hopes that no matter how soon she finishes everything now, she has to tell the internal supervisor next to the prince quickly.
She unintentionally listened to the quarrels around her and was surprised to find that the internal supervisor she had seen last time was standing beside Lv Pangxiao at this moment! It was also the eighth prince who went to look for himself, but he didn't come back at this time. I'm afraid he went to Lv Yuxiao to ask.
At this time, Song Jinzhi stood up and said, "My concubine thought that Ji Chang and Yao's promise was indeed an unintentional mistake. The two must have been shocked. Why don't they go back to the hall to rest first? This bamboo basket was also lost in a panic. If it is a punishment, she will be sent to participate in today's Hundred Grass Fighting Conference. What do you think?"
When Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong heard this, they were suddenly a little happy. Song Jinzhi really relieved them by saying this.
"That's it." The queen replied plainly without anger or smile.
It was time to return to the palace. As soon as everyone dispersed, Zhishu and Zhihua quickly helped Ji Shuidong get on the sedan chair, while Yao Yulu accelerated her pace to welcome Lv Panxiao.
"Little Lord, what's going on? The path is so anxious that it is about to be angry. Lv Panxiao asked worriedly. Although the path in the distance avoided coming forward, he still looked at this end anxiously.
"I'll tell you later. Tell Xiaozi quickly that the Eighth Prince is injured. Let Xiaozi take someone to the forest to find the prince." Yao Yulu said quickly, not only worried but also frightened, and spoke tremblingly.
Lv Panxiao was shocked after hearing this. What on earth happened? However, seeing Yao Yulu's anxious appearance, he did not dare to delay at all, and hurriedly ran to inform the path.
Xu Cairen also hurried over at this time and asked, "Sister, I'm very worried. What's going on?"
"Let's get on the sedan chair first." Yao Yulu and Xu Cairen got on the sedan chair when they came together. Ji Shuidong was sitting in the sedan chair, but did not say a word. It seemed that he was really scared.
"My sister..." Yao Yulu called softly.
"Sister, I'm really scared to death." Ji Shuidong stared at Yao Yulu with tears in his eyes and said.
"What's immortal? Don't you want to be seen by others?" Yao Yulu said with a little reproach.
"Sister Yao, Sister Ji, what's going on?" Xu Cairen was even more puzzled when he saw the reaction of the two.
"sister, don't ask." Yao Yulu just dissuaded, and many people knew that there was no good result.
Xu Cairen also lost his voice when he saw Yao Yulu's solemn look. In her opinion, her sister's every move must have her own reason. Since she is not allowed to ask, it is not to ask.
"Sister Ji, does your foot still hurt?" Xu Cairen looked at Ji Shuidong's face with some pain and said with concern.
Ji Shuidong nodded and stopped talking.
It seems that the experience of just now really scared the two weak women, but Yao Yulu is very worried about the Eighth Prince at this moment. Thinking of the appearance of the Eighth Prince just now, she can't help but feel pain in fear that he will make any mistakes. Such worries can't be asked, can't be seen or revealed. Maybe it may be the real pain. .
Along the way, the three people had no intention of the scenery, but the sedan chair was slightly but silent. Finally, they arrived at the palace. Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong got off the sedan chair and asked the queen to retreat. Ji Shuidong was sent back to Yaoqin Palace by the sedan chair, leaving Yao Yulu alone to walk in the direction of Yuemei Palace with the palace people.
Yao Yulu asked softly, "Pang Xiao, what did Xiaozi say?"
Lv Panxiao replied worriedly, "The path was scared as soon as he heard it. He hurriedly took the guards beside the prince into the woods from an empty place and did not disturb others."
Yao Yulu nodded and said again, "I have to bother you to ask someone to inquire about how it is."
"What did the little master say? The maidservant knew that the prince didn't come back to look for you, but how could he get hurt?" Lv Pang Xiao asked puzzledly.
"I met a wolf." Yao Yulu said this sentence in horror at the moment she remembered it.
"Wolf!" Lv Panxiao covered her mouth with her hand and could see that she was also very frightened.
"I lost my way and Shui Dong. It happened that the Eighth Prince came over and led us through the woods and met wolves in the forest... It turned out to be two. The prince was bitten in order to save us." Yao Yulu said, even more guilty, and the corners of her eyes were full of tears.
Lv Panxiao listened and shook his head repeatedly and said, "How could such a thing happen? Hey, I just hope that the Eighth Prince can be safe and sound. Lord, don't mention today's matter to anyone. I know that you and the prince must be innocent, but I'm afraid that others won't think so, so as not to cause trouble to you and Lord Ji.
"I must understand. Hey, I was happily preparing for the Hundred Grass Conference. Who would have thought that such a thing would have happened? Fortunately, Song Guiren relieved us, but I just didn't have the heart to go to Fangyuan to fight Baicao." Yao Yulu thought of Li Qingyu's appearance just now, and it was even more difficult to rely on guilt. When she spoke, she spoke in a sad tone.
In the evening, Lv Fangxiao brought the news that the Eighth Prince had been taken back by Xiaozi, but he lost too much blood and suffered heat outside. It was not until just now that the fever subsided, but the order of the Eighth Prince did not disturb the emperor.
Yao Yulu stared at the secluded moonlight outside the window. Her heart was shattered. She couldn't tell what it felt. All this had nothing to do with him. He could not go to the forest to find himself. He could run for his life alone in danger. He could let the emperor send a doctor to have a look, but everything was for her. Yao Yulu thought about it and did it in a measured and watertight.
She is already deeply and shallowly guilty. She can't say what her heartache is, but her husband is the emperor. The only emperor can afford the love she can accept. How can she afford Li Qingyu?
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, but I heard Lv Panxiao say.
"Little Lord, there is one more thing, I don't know if I should talk about it..." Lv Yuxiao saw that Yao Yulu had lost her soul and sat in the chair at this moment, but there was still a bad news waiting to tell Yao Yulu, and she couldn't help but bear to speak.
Yao Yulu stared at Lv Yuxiao and said slowly, "That's it."
"This... Just now, Xiao Xuanzi got the news that his wife was ill in the house, and the days... It's not too good." Lv Pang Xiao said cautiously.
After hearing this, Yao Yulu's eyes widened, stared straight at Lv Panxiao and asked, "How could this happen?"
"Don't be too anxious. He said that he was only a little sick, but Xiao Xuanzi heard that the house heard that the little master could not be favored in the palace, and other wives and aunts in the house treated his wife a little harshly." Lv Pangxiao didn't dare to go on, and Yao Yulu's look at this moment made her even more distressed.
Yao Yulu's hand grasped the table tightly, and her nails slid on the table to make a sound. She frowned slightly but smiled sadly: "How much do you have to step down and hold high."
"Little Lord..." Lv Pangxiao just called softly, but didn't know what else to say to comfort Yao Yulu.
"You told me that if you don't advance in the palace, you will retreat. Is that true? I didn't expect that I was not favored in the palace and implicated my mother. Yao Yulu's tone was full of despair, and finally closed her eyes tightly, and a line of tears flowed down her cheeks.
"Little Lord, you are the only one who can help your wife now." Lv Pangxiao didn't say much, but one sentence reveals the true meaning.
Yao Yulu had a sad smile on her face and said, "Go, give me the maintenance book borrowed by Xiao Xuanzi last time, and then help me prepare the dance clothes for tomorrow."
After hearing this, Lv Pangxiao was suddenly overjoyed. Unexpectedly, Yao Yulu suddenly figured it out. I don't know how long Lv Pangxiao has been hoping to see the decision made at this moment, but the reason for this was not very satisfactory.
Lv Fangxiao was busy taking the last book "Fang Healing Record" and putting it on the small square table in front of Yao Yulu. Yao Yulu looked at the book in front of her and thought it would still be useful. Since she was punished by the emperor, she has no longer care about the maintenance of this skin color and body, and her skin is not as tender as that day. I haven't practiced dancing for a long time, and my body is not as flexible as before, but I'm really helpless. If I'm so willing to be mediocre, I don't know how I will implicate my mother.
Now that Yufei is sick, it is no longer up to her to decide whether to help or not. If Yufei spreads her thoughts to her father and eldest wife, she is afraid that even her father will not forgive her. The opportunity to enter the palace on that day is taken by herself, but it is also her father who has tried her best to prepare. It seems that she is really If you want to clear your mind, even if you go against your heart, you have to follow your destiny.
Yao Yulu slowly picked up the book and looked through the catalogue. The book did not look thick, and the thin content of more than a dozen pages seemed to be somewhat interesting. The secret recipe had never been heard of, and she secretly wrote down a few and prepared to try it tomorrow.
Yao Yulu went to bed early today, but after lying in **, she was infinitely worried. This day is more like a play, unlike her own life, Yao Yulu's own life, but since she had this opportunity to enter the palace, which day has not been as entangled and shocking as a tortuous story?
