The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 245
[245. Chapter 245]
After Qiang San’er went out, Mu Xiyao was about to write and wash the inkstone, when she saw Mo Lan’s face was white, so she rushed into the room with the curtains closed, and it was too late to communicate.
“Master, there is news from the mansion that Madam faints!”
Mu Xiyao stood upright with a bang, holding the bookcase upright, and because she was too eager, she overturned the seat behind her. Ignoring the detailed inquiries, he just hurriedly explained the phrase “prepare the car”, and the person was already in a hurry to leave the study.
The mansion in the east of the city immediately became busy because of the words of the side concubine. The two maids were called by Mu Xiyao in front of them to explain carefully, they only need to keep an eye on the two young ones, and the others next to them don’t need to pay any attention. Zong Zhenglin was also called to stay with the guards, and all the people were transferred to Chengqing Chengyou’s courtyard to guard. The busier you are, the more careful you need to be.
“Master, the frame is ready, and you can leave at any time.”
“Let’s leave the house immediately, Mo Lan will follow. Huilan stays in the house, and it is more convenient to get a message.” Putting on the cloak, Mu Xiyao was busy with He kept his feet and walked straight out of the courtyard gate, but he didn’t want to delay for a moment.
Here, Mu Xiyao was in a hurry to rush to Mu’s mansion, and the dark guard who was left by Zong Zhenglin was also anxiously rushing to deliver a letter to Helian’s mansion.
When it comes to the side concubine, the usual set of priorities cannot be counted at all. If you really want to be stupid and divide it into a critical level like an ordinary secret report, you will just wait for His Highness to clean up and go back to Xinzhou to practice again.
In Helian’s mansion, Zong Zhenglin was dressed in black and plain robes, and the stubble on his chin had not been taken care of for three days, and he was already showing some signs. Beside him, Helian Minmin’s face was terrifyingly pale, with a faint cyan in the pale. The man was also very thin, and the filial robes he wore on the day of the funeral looked empty and unsupportable now.
“If you’re tired, take a break.” Zong Zhenglin frowned as he glanced down at her. How long can it last like this? If you are ill and can’t get out of bed, and you delay the funeral, you are really unfilial.
“Even after a break, my mind is also in a panic. Concubine would rather stay here, and my heart is always better. More His Highness to worry about.” Stubborn, it is no longer reluctant.
On the opposite side, Helian Weirui saw the two of them standing together, with respect on the face, but in reality they were very unfamiliar. Especially Helian Minmin took the initiative to snuggle up several times, but was avoided by Zong Zhenglin without a trace, only to feel very happy.
She didn’t get what she tried so hard to get, and the woman opposite was just sitting on it, but it was nothing but a false name. Comparing the two, I am afraid that Helian Minmin’s heart is suffering far more than her.
However, he said that Qiang San’er went to the prince’s mansion to find a chief steward, but unexpectedly, the chief steward of Tian was not in the mansion. I only got the exact news after asking the person, saying that the chief steward wanted to arrange the abbot of Anguo Temple to open the altar. At this moment, the person was busy in Helian’s mansion and did not return to the mansion for two days.
Qiang San’er had no choice but to rush to Helian’s mansion after remembering that the master said that he must send it to the chief steward. After reaching the door with great difficulty, he was stopped by someone, saying that he would need a pass before entering.
Standing outside the door in such a cold weather for half an hour, and finally waiting for someone to come. Looking up, it was not Steward Tian, but Commander Wei who was able to go out in person.
“My lord, Master Yao sent a small letter to the chief steward, and specifically explained that he should avoid others and show it to His Highness in private.”
Wei Zhen nodded, and Master Yao ordered that no one dared to tamper with it without authorization. Since it was said in private, I found the right opportunity and presented it to His Highness.
“The big steward is inseparable now. If you can trust him, let him forward it. The same is true.”
Qiang San’er hesitated to hand over the letter. Lord Wei is His Highness’s valet, so it should be fine, right?
The matter here, Qiang Saner saluted and retired, and hurried back to resume his life. Wei Zhen turned around and was about to enter the door, but out of the corner of his eyes, he inadvertently glanced at the dark guard who was pretending to be a hawker across the street. The “old man” made three or five gestures at him extremely secretly. After the interpretation was clear, Wei Zhen’s eyelids jumped, and his heart was screaming again and again. How dare you delay, the wind is blowing under your feet, and you just trot to find His Highness to report the letter.
His Highness made three orders and five appeals. The person who was arrested the day before yesterday has not been tortured and the result has not been obtained. At this time, Master Yao must not leave the compound. But now that the incident happened suddenly, Master Yao not only went out alone with a maid, but also left all the guards behind to look after the two little masters. Although there were also female guards behind him, no one could guarantee that there would be no such thing as an emergency.
The day before yesterday, I found so many deadly things on Zhuangzi. After looking at it, His Highness looked so gloomy that he seemed to be swallowing life. Wei Zhen felt the sweat on his forehead, and hoped that the person would be safe and secure, so that no accident would happen.
Just now, Wei Zhen went out of the hall in a hurry, being watched by someone with a heart, and secretly kept his mind. Helian’s house is all his own servants, and he is very handy to summon him.
It’s a pity that the people who peeped in secret have the ability to find out that Zong Zhenglin’s guards are under guard, only to see a well-dressed servant who whispered with Lord Wei, and then handed a letter from his sleeve. After the two of them left, they sent Yinliang to inquire at the concierge, only to find out that it was the famous concubine Mu side of the Sixth Highness’s mansion who had actually sent someone to visit the door.
This is really reckless. Hearing that Namu’s clan was so charming, she never wanted to compete for favor, and even the family of the imperial concubine and concubine couldn’t wait for the first seven. His Highness had not been back for three or two days, so he couldn’t bear the loneliness and came to the door… This Concubine Mu was even more unbearable than rumored.
In secret, everyone rushed to reply to their master, thinking that with such a big news, the reward of silver would definitely be indispensable.
When Zong Zhenglin saw Wei Zhen hurried to report, he knew that things had changed. He got up and took someone to the yard, only to hear him say that Mu Xiyao left the house privately, and his face sank immediately. Hearing Yu Shi’s ailment again, he couldn’t guess Mu Xiyao’s urgency. Compared to Helian Minmin’s current situation, the Sixth Highness was very eccentric and felt a little distressed.
“Let Tian Fushan stay and help Concubine Zheng handle the funeral. If there is still a need, let him handle it himself.” Zong Zhenglin returned to the house and left a message with Helian Minmin, “Leave the house on important matters”, not to keep her When the opportunity arises, he takes Wei Zhenyang away.
After staying in Helian Mansion for two days, with his status as a prince, he has done his best. I originally planned to go back tomorrow morning, but now it’s okay to be half a day earlier.
When Helian Minmin entered the house in self-defense, she had a bad premonition. Now that it has come true, I am not too disappointed in my heart. Perhaps he had long understood that Zong Zhenglin’s willingness to surrender for two days had already given her affection. In other words, he thinks that the two days have been respectful to each other, enough to make the world see the Helian family prince concubine clearly, and he still has his respect.
The reason… Helian Minmin coldly pursed the corners of her lips.
“Master.” Feng mama frowned, with obvious anger in her eyes. “The one who met Lord Wei was the servant of Huanqiang San’er in the Concubine’s Courtyard.”
Is this the “important matter” in his mouth? Helian Minmin leaned back in the chair, only to feel very tired.
Helian Weirui, who also received the news, suddenly clenched her fingers holding the silk handkerchief. At this time, the Mu Clan sent people over… It is by no means as simple as competing for favor.
However, yes or no, it doesn’t matter.
Everyone in the world loves to be lively, and when they scratch someone else’s foot, they just want to step on it hard. Mu Xiyao has put this handle in her hands, so don’t expect to be able to retreat.
After whispering a few words to the maid, Helian Weirui slowly got up and walked to Helian Minmin’s side to sit down.
“At this time, my sister can still sit still? My sister has to say admiration. No wonder there are no less than five girls in the entire Helian family, and only my sister can be selected by His Highness Sixth Highness’s side and become the righteous prince and concubine. Being a concubine with such a small heart like my younger sister, it is hard enough to be a concubine.”
Helian Weirui held up the silk handkerchief and fiddled with it repeatedly.
“I think that Mrs. Mu dared to pull someone away in front of her mother’s tablet, but she wanted to make a fuss to make her mother die. Yes .”
Helianwei’s eyes were full of scarlet red. Since childhood, she has been raised in other people’s names. Her biological mother, and the people who took care of her in the mansion, all agreed that she died in childbirth. It was only at the age of three that the nurse was seriously ill, and when she was dying, did she confusedly regard her as a mother, held her hand, and kept saying that she was useless and could not avenge her.
Helian Weirui didn’t realize until then that her biological mother was actually used by her mother with a kind-hearted face and a cruel medicine in the induction soup. This made the mother’s premature birth encountered a blood collapse, and finally lost her life in confusion.
Now it’s her turn to be kind to her first mother, who will pay her debts with her life. Even above the mourning hall, how could Helian Weirui not secretly applaud when she saw how her daughter, who was protected like an eyeball, suffered the grievances of others.
Helian Minmin clasped the armrest, only to feel a terrible daze in front of her eyes. The sentence that she couldn’t rest her eyes on hit the wound in her heart that could not be touched. The exhaustion and pain of the past few days, coupled with the excitement of Helian Weirui’s mercilessness, was actually powerless, and she slipped so softly that she almost fell to the ground.
“Sister!” Helian Weirui exclaimed, struggling to support her shoulders, and repeatedly called for the imperial doctor.
Mammy Feng hated Helian Weirui, who stared at the cat crying and the mouse, and wished she could expose her hypocrisy. Although she was standing behind her master, she couldn’t hear the whispers between the two very clearly. But the master’s expression just now, it is obvious that he heard the second lady’s words, and it is very bad, and then he can’t stand it anymore.
When everyone outside heard that the prince and concubine were so distraught that she fainted, they couldn’t help but sigh.
“Second miss, if you treat your master like this, you are not afraid of retribution?” Mammy Feng took Helian Minmin and stroked her forehead with deep hatred in her eyes.
Before others arrived, Helian Weirui covered her mouth and sneered. “You old slave, what’s the face of the word retribution? The good things you did with that woman that day, she deserves it today, maybe someday your retribution will come!” After saying that, she gave her a yin Yin glance and sat up straight. , fiddled with an embroidered handkerchief.
Mammy Feng’s eyes trembled, and a pair of wrinkled hands almost held Helian Minmin in front of her in a daze.
Glancing across Helian Weirui’s hand to play with the silk handkerchief, how did she find out that the embroidery on it was actually Concubine Lou’s favorite Yuye Jiangli back then!
Could it be that… facing the funeral tablet in the room, Mammy Feng only felt the chills penetrated into the bone marrow, and the slightest traces of it could not be lingered.
