86 Mr. Su is really a good wife!
After leaving the raccoon bureau, Mu Xi ran maintained a shallow smile on his face. Nianhua behind him couldn't help asking, "Was the young lady too careless just now? Let the third lady know the young lady's intention. If you can't draw out the power behind the third lady."
"Even if I don't say it, the people behind her will know, and my real purpose is to find out how she escaped." And Mu Xiyan is carefully thinking about what Mu Nianqing said.
Nianhua suddenly felt that Mu Xiran had changed much compared with his previous life.
Back to Kunning Palace, before stepping into the palace gate, I saw Su Heyu standing there motionless.
At this time, Su Heyu, as the companion of the prince, was also normal here. Mu Xian did not want to take the initiative to talk to him, but was ready to go straight into the palace.
Unexpectedly, Su Heyu came forward and stopped Mu Xilan and scolded, "Why did you anger your mother and say something to Xue Xin, which made both of them bored when they went back."
Facing his Xingshi's guilt, Mu Xilan was not interested in explaining, "This is Mr. Su's family matter. How does Xilan know?"
"Mu Xi'an! I always thought you were a pure woman, but I didn't expect that now you would insult your mother and scold Xue Xin for your own self-interest..."
"Shut up! Su Heyu." Mu Xi ran a strong mockery at the corners of his mouth and directly into Su Heyu's eyes, "Originally, I also thought that Mr. Su was an elegant man, but I didn't expect that Mr. Su was just a shallow person who believed his words!"
Mu Xilan put away his sleeves and quickly walked into Kunning Palace. What she hates is this kind of ignorant person who listens to others and questions her, instead of deliberately slandering her Mrs. Su and Chu Xuexin.
Nianhua stayed in place with a little selfishness, and his eyebrows were low. "Mrs. Su and Chu Xuexin are so angry with the queen. If you don't believe it, you can ask everyone in Kunning Palace. And when Mrs. Su scolded the young lady, she obviously gave in. I didn't expect that you people who are self-respecting the most polite people are lying with your eyes open. Mr. Su is really a good wife!"
A maid can talk to Su Heyu so presumptuously except the maid beside Princess Zhaohua.
Su Heyu looked at Nianhua's familiar appearance in shock when he heard the words. She was even grabbed her wrist and blurted out, "Why are you by Mu Xiran?"
Nianhua treated each other coldly, "Nianhua is now a slave around the young lady." He pulled out his sleeves and ran in with a small step. When Su and Yu wanted to ask again, Nianhua disappeared.
Kunning Palace is located between the Qianqing Palace and the harem concubine palace, so there are often concubines and maids passing by. At this time, Wanfei, who was about to send soup to the emperor, happened to see the unforgettable man in her heart, so she stopped, left the maid of honor and came over.
"Mr. Su will always gossip when he comes to this harem alone." After saying that, Wanfei covered the smile at the corners of her mouth with a veil.
Su Heyu came to his senses from the shock just now, but when he saw Wanfei, it was even more difficult for him to calm down. "Mu Wan, is Nian Han your person? Zhaohua was killed by you?"
Mu Wan's expression has never been concealed. From Mu Wan's first arrival to the capital, when the two first met, Su and Yu knew that the delicate woman liked him and had not changed so far, so the only one who hated Zhaohua was Mu Wan.
"Huyu, don't talk nonsense. How can I, a weak woman, do such a thing?" Mu Wan bit her lips, and her smile always brought endless softness. She gently put her fingers on Su Heyu's shoulder and said aggrievedly, "There are many people who are jealous of Princess Zhaohua in this palace. Heyu suspects me, which really makes Mu Wan extremely sad."
Mu Wan's words are true, but Su Heyu still did not let go of every expression on Mu Wan's face. After looking at it carefully, he did not see any strange color. He also restrained his mind and pulled away his body, "I have something else to do. I won't disturb Wan's concubine to send soup."
Mu Wan has long been used to Su Heyu's cold and indifferent attitude. She just thought that Su Heyu suspected herself just now. She felt that her body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave. Su Heyu's suspicion must be for a reason and will not be mentioned for no reason.
And once this matter is taken care of by Su Heyu, it will definitely attract the attention of others and will one day find itself.
"Nanya, why did Su Heyu come to Kunning Palace?"
"I don't know about this yet." Nanya was afraid that her master would be blamed.
Wanfei just gritted her silver teeth this time, "When I come out later, you have to inquire. As long as you know who he just met, you will know where he came from. I will definitely get rid of this person." The delicate expression on his face was frighteningly angry.
In early summer, the palace is full of scenery, and the warm wind occasionally blows, and the leaves are ringing.
Mu Xilan entered the Kunning Palace and saw that the queen was still depressed, so he proposed to let her go out for a walk, so Mu Xilan helped the queen to walk in the direction of the imperial garden. On the way, she happened to meet Concubine De, so she walked with her.
In the imperial garden, there are only white stones, stone walls through clouds, and flowers. Several people crossed the carved corridor on the right and arrived at the winding bamboo bridge. The stream under the bridge was gurgling, and the water was as clear as a mirror. You could clearly see the fish swimming happily. At the end of the bamboo bridge, there was another scenery. The trickling waterfall ran down from the towering rockery, and the splashing water was like mist.
Bypassing the rockery, Mu Xiran saw the thin sweat on the queen's forehead and pointed to the towering purple pavilion hidden by Tengluo, "Empress, let's go there for a rest." Seeing the queen's silent nod, Mu Xi'an ordered Xi Ye to prepare some tea.
Concubine De was also in a good mood and was interested for a moment. "I haven't played chess for a long time. I'm going to play against my sister today. Don't refuse." Concubine De entered the palace at the age of 18 and has not had any children for more than 20 years, and the only princess she gave birth to also died early.
Concubine De has always been virtuous and shallow, and the queen has the best relationship with her. "Okay, I haven't moved a chess piece in a year." After eating fast and chanting Buddha for such a year, Mu Xian can feel the hand cocoon left by copying scriptures in the palm of the queen's hand.
I don't know why Concubine De sighed softly, "If the emperor was there, it would be more fun."
Mu Xian was most aware of this matter before he came out of the cabinet. She often pulls the emperor and the queen to the royal garden to enjoy the scenery, and often acts coquettishly in front of everyone in the Purple Pavilion, which makes the Purple Pavilion always laugh. Now, Zige has revealed some vicissitudes of life. It no longer has such crisp laughter, but is cold and touching.
The maids quickly cleaned up the cabinet. The queen and Concubine De sat opposite the stone table and pinched the chess pieces one after the other.
As soon as the queen put down the black chess pieces, she heard the pleasant laughter from outside. The most annoying noise of chess players. The queen couldn't help frowning slightly and looked at Concubine De. Concubine De said lightly, "I don't know if it was done intentionally or by chance."
As soon as Defei finished speaking, she saw several people come in. The leading concubine Shu covered her mouth and saw the people in the attic. She hurriedly laughed, "I said that I just went to Chengqian Palace. Why didn't I see Defei's sister? It turned out that she was hiding here to play chess."
It's obviously a simple sentence, which really makes several people look different. Only Concubine De smiled and said, "This is strange. When I passed the Changchun Palace, I heard the maids say that Concubine Shu came to the Royal Garden early in the morning."
The three people's minds were clear. What the noble concubine Shu said was just to provoke the relationship between the German concubine and the queen, and the German concubine easily slapped the concubine in the face.
Only Wanfei smiled and said, "It's rare for us to get together today. Let's sit down and watch the game between the Queen and Sister Defei. It must be wonderful." With that, Fushu noble concubine sat next to her. Before sitting down, Concubine Wan took a look at Mu Xilan on the opposite side.
Mu Xian didn't seem to see her. She didn't say anything and looked at the chess game seriously.
After one game, the queen narrowly defeated the imperial concubine, but the queen was slightly tired in this battle and asked Mu Xi, "Can girl Xia play chess? How about helping me play the next game?"
The news that Mu Xiyan was illiterate spread as early as the capital, not to mention the palace.
However, when the gloating eyes looked at Mu Xiren, the woman smiled shallowly, "It is a blessing to be able to play for the Empress. It's a blessing to be able to compete with Defei.
Concubine De smiled brightly when she heard the words and turned to regret, "My sister really got a treasure, which makes my sister envy."
"If you win this chess game, it's not too late to praise her." The queen complained angrly. The queen herself knew in her heart that she could not spoil Xi'an like Zhaohua at the beginning, otherwise she would only follow Zhaohua's footsteps.
As soon as Mu Xiren pinched the chess pieces, she heard Wanfei say in surprise, "Second sister, aren't you illiterate? This chess..."
"Xiran was guided by Mr. Su and King Jing'an six months ago." Mu Xiran freely took Wanfei's words, which made everyone even more envious. Mr. Su and King Jing'an are both masters of the game. If they can get the guidance of these two people, their chess skills will certainly not be bad.
Sure enough, Wanfei's face suddenly turned pale. Before she came to the Royal Garden, she knew the purpose of Su and Yu's entry into the palace. Now after listening to what Mu Xiran said, she was hateful and angry. Looking at Mu Xiran's faint face, she wanted to poison Mu Xiran just like the original poisoned Zhaohua, so that the truth of Zhaohua's death would disappear as soon as possible.
However, Wanfei quickly recovered her delicateness and said calmly, "The second sister is like this, and she has a skill."
The queen's eyes all fell on the chessboard. Seeing that Mu Xi's step by step is extremely steady, there is no lack of sharpness. Such a strong offensive can rarely be seen in women's games, and she can't help but secretly become more and more satisfied with Mu Xi'an.
In contrast, Defei's chess skills always seem to be dominated by defense, but in fact, every step is ready for the next step, and she likes to win by surprise.
The noble concubine on the opposite side likes to observe people's look the most. She found that Mu Xi's heart was a little dark, so she said, "It may not be a good thing for a woman to be too weak, but if she is too strong, she is easy to be targeted. These steps of the female official really have Mr. Su's tricks.
