The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 344
[344. Chapter 344 Deliberate]
The two were placed in an apricot-colored military tent five feet away from the coach’s tent, and all the military tents used by the surrounding generals were moved to another place. Her Royal Highness’s concubines were ordered to serve in the army, so naturally they had to avoid some outsiders.
No one else disturbed him anymore, Zhang Shi hurriedly dragged Wan Jingwen to the point of fright. “Sister, you were too daring just now. Without His Highness’s answer, it’s impossible to… come forward to serve you like that.”
Can’t? She didn’t see what was wrong. I didn’t see that the woman not only made it, but also made it excellent.
The woman that Zong Zhenglin likes, why does she always make her feel confused. This time, where did this widow agree with him? Silent took the tea cup, Wan Jingwen was tired of excuses, avoiding Zhang’s kindly persuasion, and sat alone on the soft stool for a long time.
“That’s true, you promised not to intervene.” In the tent, Mu Xiyao took off the veil, pouting in dissatisfaction and staring at the lazy and relaxed man. Wearing a robe is unwilling to tidy up, and the temperament of the whole body is not good, no wonder Wan Jingwen wants to get close to him.
However, the woman’s expression at that time was in a trance with an aftertaste. What does this mean? This was the second time, and the expression in Mrs Wan’s eyes made Mu Xiyao feel that something was amiss. For the first time, it was the resentment in her eyes against Helian Minmin that could not be resolved.
“Jiaojiao means, this hall touched that mouth?” The tone was ridiculed, with no deep meaning.
Teasing her is just one of them. In addition, it was to test the woman who stretched out her hand directly to him. Mr. Wan…, it really surprised him. According to the report of the dark guard, she was the only one in the mansion who had never contradicted Shiji. Even Mrs. Zhang, the day before he left the capital, was also terrified, pacing the room for a long time.
Such a woman he had never cared about and couldn’t even remember her face clearly, how could she risk her life to get in front of this terrifying epidemic? To say that the Wan family is more attentive to him than the little woman, Zong Zhenglin doesn’t believe it.
After some testing, nothing else was found, but the shock and pain in her eyes were clearly visible. The shock can be explained, but the pain… When did he have affection for her?
The Sixth Highness was suspicious, but Mu Xiyao’s head was not idle.
More than just mouth fat. She was as motionless as a mountain before, letting Mrs Wan approach, don’t think she doesn’t know what the boss is thinking.
“Where is someone who is in front of their own woman and insists on asking others to take the initiative to express their closeness.” His five senses are as sensitive as he is, so he can’t detect Wan Jingwen’s actions? Apparently it’s loaded with garlic.
“Jiaojiao.” Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly, thinking about Wan Jingwen’s strangeness when she was suddenly interrupted by an unpleasant sentence from Mu Xiyao. “Let the woman next to me get close to this hall?” His eyes swirled around her, and it was true that he was waiting to see Mu Xiyao’s reaction, and he was very satisfied with the result.
Hypocritical! He was clear about what she meant, and he had to catch her loopholes. This man, on purpose, was looking for an excuse to pinch her more when he did that bad thing.
At dinner time, Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Zhang had packed up early and waited in the tent. I only waited until the hourglass in the room pointed to the approaching hour, but no one came to call her two to serve in the tent, so I had to ask the girl to go out and ask.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Jin went out with empty hands. When he came back, he brought two food boxes, and his expression was a little strange.
“Master, Lord Ye said that the lady has already served His Highness’s meals. Madam specially ordered Huotou to cook the meals for you two. If you are not satisfied with the food in the army, please also ask. Be considerate of the two of you.”
Not to mention what the two sitting masters thought, even Zhu Jin noticed that it was very wrong. The Concubine Shu took the life of Concubine Shu and came to serve in front of His Royal Highness. But that lady was not named and followed by His Highness, she actually overstepped the master’s behalf, took up the air of the master, and took care of the two concubines of His Royal Highness’s house together? No matter how you look at it, this should be what the mistress of the palace should do.
“Sure enough, I grew up in a barbarian land, I haven’t seen the world, and I don’t have any education.” Although Zhang’s heart was reluctant, he never had the courage to yell openly. Wan Jingwen held back for an afternoon, but after all, she couldn’t bear it any longer.
The atmosphere in the tent was a bit depressing. A few people had eaten hastily. Mrs. Zhang helped the maid to go out and walk around to digest their food. Only Wan Jingwen was left to light the lamp alone, rubbing her forehead and planning a major event.
It was windy at night, and the humidity in Moganling was heavy. Taking a deep breath, you could feel the coolness in your lungs. Zong Zhenglin was discussing matters with the crowd in front of him, and Mu Xiyao was impatient with the crowd arguing over a sand table, so he informed him in advance to go outside for a walk. With Ye Kai guarding behind him, the Sixth Highness reluctantly agreed.
“Master, the one in front of me is wearing a cloak, as if I have seen the lady during the day. There is also Lord Ye following behind.” Zhang’s maid has sharp eyes, and at a glance, she can see the person standing on the small soil slope, who is staring into the distance.
“Ye Kai, there is not enough food in the army?” Glancing at the soldiers cleaning up the stove in the distance, Mu Xiyao’s eyes flickered.
“Never. But the master is not satisfied with the fee?” The aunt suddenly asked about the military salary. The box of food in her house that was specially sent from Xicheng, is also missing. There are also incense accessories bought in the city, which is not the best choice that His Highness ordered.
Tightening the front cloak, Mu Xiyao looked around and seemed to be quieter than before. “Those soldiers who suffered from the epidemic have already been sent away from this place?”
Ye Kai’s complexion changed in one sentence. With a stiff expression, he hesitated and did not know how to answer.
“Master Ye, just listened to the concubine talking to herself, don’t take it to heart.” It was really quick to start, that man really didn’t spend his days as leisurely as he appeared to be. Zong Zhenglin, where did you hide people?
Noticing the changes in the surroundings, there were faint footsteps behind him. It was definitely not a sergeant, or a casual pair of light armor, and there should be some rubbing sounds.
Looking back at Mu Ran, the person who came was a little surprised that Mu Xiyao was called. Originally thought it was Wan Jingwen who came to the door first, but unexpectedly it was Mrs. Zhang, who was the only one who was willing to talk to her.
Screening off their attendants, Mu Xiyao waited until Mrs. Zhang stepped forward cautiously and looked at her for a moment. This woman was as lacking in momentum as always, and she showed weakness in her bones. With the name of the prince and concubine on her back, she didn’t dare to point at the tip of her nose and speak.
Looking at her with a smile for a long time, the person opposite to hold the handkerchief finally raised his eyes. “You, you must have heard about the reputation of Concubine Mu Side in Shengjing City?” The title is a bit inappropriate, but I really can’t find a proper name.
mention her? Mu Xiyao was stunned.
Without waiting for her to respond, Mrs. Zhang hurried down nervously. “The relationship between Concubine Side and His Highness is extraordinary. After this battle, His Royal Highness returned to Beijing and understood that Concubine Side was alone in the temple to pray for blessings. It should be more attentive.”
After that, he remained silent and gathered up his courage. Look at her. Although she is not good, she knows the truth of gratitude. Although he was selfish, he was really speaking for Mu Xiyao.
Shock flashed in his eyes, and Mu Xiyao’s eyes stayed on her for a while, before leaving without saying a word with Ye Kai.
Mrs. Zhang, this woman is not smart, it is not easy to warn her in innuendo. No matter how ruthless, I’m afraid she won’t have the courage to say it.
This is not to say that Zhang’s heart is kind, but that she is very aware of current affairs. Without a future, at least know how to hold onto a driftwood.
Answering Mu Xiyao’s conjecture, when the two of them left, the little maid nervously supported Zhang’s arm with worry on her face. “Master, are you not afraid that she will sue you in front of His Highness?”
“It would be better for her to file a complaint, at least to let His Highness understand that Master and my concubine are wholeheartedly committed.” Who said she was stupid without any scheming?
In this matter, the last thing to look at is which woman is more important in His Highness’s heart. And she, just like when she first entered the mansion, picked a candidate early, and was more optimistic about Concubine Mu.
