Hua Xiwan's reaction to Yan Jinqiu was not surprising at all, but the maids around her were relieved because of this. Since the lord already had this attitude, it means that he didn't take Yuan Shuyi in the slightest.
Some relationships between men and women are the worst in this world, such as cousins, cousins, righteous siblings, or confidants. Who knows when this pure relationship between men and women will become less pure
That night, the husband and wife spent a wonderful night. After Yan Jinqiu went to court the next day, Hua Xiwan came from the street to report that Yuan Shuyi wanted to ask to see her.
"Yuan Shuyi wants to see me?" Hua Xiwan supported the phoenix hairpin on her temples in front of the bronze mirror, and after drawing the yellow flowers on her forehead, she said, "She is a rough servant, what can I ask to see me?"
The grandmother who passed the message raised her chin cautiously, and after seeing the pattern on the hem of Hua Xiwan's luxurious skirt, she quickly lowered her head and said in a somewhat uneasy tone: "She said that she has an important secret to tell you, and it concerns the palace, so The servants did not dare to delay, so I came to report this to you."
"Oh?" Hua Xiwan raised her eyebrows and stood up slowly with Bai Xia's hand: "Tell her to wait outside."
"Yes." Seeing that the concubine didn't take out her anger, the mammy breathed a sigh of relief and backed away after saluting. When she walked out of the inner courtyard, she glanced at Yuan Shuyi, who painted her eyebrows and lips even though she was a rough servant, and said with an ugly expression: "The princess told you to wait, and the free man will ask you to enter." Didn't hear clearly, scolded bad luck and left in a hurry.
Yuan Shuyi's face was a little ugly, but she looked at the luxury of the inner courtyard through the Moon Gate. The dissatisfaction on her face was forcibly suppressed by her, and it turned into a quiet and submissive.
She stood outside for about two cups of tea, and finally a maid in green took her in. With her current status, she was not qualified to see the princess in the main hall, so after the maid led her to the side hall, she withdrew.
She had also been to Prince Xian's mansion, but at that time, although she felt that the scenery of Prince Xian's mansion was good, it was not enough to be amazed. But now she found out that the tables and chairs inside were made of precious wood, and if any chair was taken out, it could be worth the spending of ordinary people for several years.
Hearing the sound of footsteps behind her, she looked back, and saw Hua Xiwan walking towards this side like the stars and the moon. The fabric on her body was radiant and looked extremely luxurious, and the embroidery on the skirt was even more beautiful. Lifelike, enough to be envied by many women, the phoenix containing pearls on the temples is even more valuable, and coupled with the appearance of the alluring country, I don't know how many women can't wait to replace her
Seeing Hua Xiwan getting closer and closer, she couldn't help shrinking her rough hands into her sleeves, and saluted in an orderly manner: "This servant has seen the princess."
Hua Xiwan stopped and glanced at Yuan Shuyi, then took Bai Xia's hand and sat down on the upper seat.
The corners of Yuan Shuyi's mouth, who thought she would pretend to be close and wouldn't let her salute, tensed unnaturally, but Hua Xiwan didn't speak, and she could only bend her knees and couldn't get up.
She's used to seeing acting, so Hua Xiwan won't feel wronged and pretend to be generous and gentle, she took a sip of the stomach-warming tea handed over by Hongying, and then said, "No gift, I heard that you have something to do. Find me?"
Does the dignified princess speak so ignorant of euphemism
Yuan Shuyi was stunned for a moment, then looked around with a mysterious expression: "I also ask the princess to let the irrelevant people retire."
Hua Xiwan raised her head, and the servants in the inner hall retreated, but Bai Xia and Hongying still stood behind her and did not move.
Yuan Shuyi glanced at Bai Xia and Hongying, the submissiveness on her face disappeared without a trace, and said, "This matter is unusual, you may not believe me when I say it, but everything I said is true."
Hua Xiwan looked at her without speaking, waiting for her to tell the shocking secret.
"Last year, the body of the young master of the Zhang family was found in the suburbs. His death was tragic. Do you know who was the murderer?"
Hua Xiwan held her cheeks with her hands, but still didn't speak.
Seeing Hua Xiwan's calm face, Yuan Shuyi gritted her teeth: "The messenger behind you is your husband, King Xian."
"Why should I trust you?" Hua Xiwan asked with a half-smile, "I don't trust the person next to me, but trust a woman who thinks about the person next to me, do you think I'm stupid?"
"I don't know if you're stupid or not, but I understand that your husband is very scheming," Yuan Shuyi gritted his teeth, "and his brother-in-law, do you really think it was the prince and his sister?"
"Well, this is a very bold guess," Hua Xiwan rubbed her chin with her index finger lazily, "not to mention whether these things are true or false, even if they are true, to me, they are nothing but trivial matters. That's it."
Yuan Shuyi's complexion changed slightly. She looked at Hua Xiwan in astonishment. As a woman, she found out that the person beside her was a cold-blooded and ruthless murderer, didn't she feel uncomfortable at all
"Why don't you let me talk about you," Hua Xiwan got up and walked in front of Yuan Shuyi, smiling, "Since you know that he is such a person, why do you still think about it? Or, you made up such a bizarre story, just In order to alienate my relationship with Ziling, and then take advantage of it?"
Yuan Shuyi snorted coldly, "Forget it if you don't believe it." She did have so much thought, but Hua Xiwan's attitude of unbelief made her feel like she had no idea what to do.
Seeing her attitude, Hua Xiwan sneered, "It's up to you to say whether you believe it or not, it's up to me to believe it or not, of course it can only be forgotten."
Seeing Hua Xiwan like this, Yuan Shuyi somehow felt that she had the urge to slap her, but the situation was stronger than others, so she could only endure it.
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, then leave." Hua Xiwan gradually faded the smile on her face, "But there is something I want to say in front of you, when you enter this palace, don't let it go. Remember the past."
Yuan Shuyi's face was a little embarrassed for a moment, when she heard footsteps outside the door, she suddenly got angry with a thought.
"Princess, this slave does not mean this, please forgive me!"
Just as Yan Jinqiu entered the yard, he suddenly heard a somewhat familiar and sharp voice from the side hall, followed by the sound of tables and chairs knocking over.
His face darkened, he glanced at the servants who were standing outside, hurried forward, kicked open the door of the side hall, and saw Yuan Shuyi lying on his back at the corner of the table, with blood on his forehead, and his body was wet, like It was someone who poured tea. And Hua Xiwan stood by the side with the hand of the maid, looking at Yuan Shuyi with indifference.
"Cousin..." Yuan Shuyi pressed her forehead and tried to get up. After she stood up forcefully, she fell down limply, looking extremely helpless and pitiful.
There are a lot of people around, but not a single one is looking around, instead they hold their breaths, as if they didn't hear or see anything.
Seeing the situation in the house clearly, Yan Jinqiu's face became more and more ugly, and finally he said solemnly: "come here!"
Yuan Shuyi's eyes fell on Hua Xiwan through her fingers, revealing a mocking smile.
"Drag this lowly maid!" Yan Jinqiu said coldly, "I was shocked that the princess was clean, her crime was unforgivable, and she was to blame for ten."
Yuan Shuyi looked at Yan Jinqiu with a pale face. She never thought that Yan Jinqiu would make such a choice. She turned her head to look at Hua Xiwan, but saw her smiling, as if she had expected Yan Jinqiu to react like this.
Soon a eunuch covered Yuan Shuyi's mouth and dragged her down, and she didn't even have a chance to speak from beginning to end.
Being pushed by the eunuch on the wide stool and hitting the top ten boards, Yuan Shuyi was so in pain that she could barely stand up. She looked up at the indifferent servants around her, and almost fainted.
She touched her forehead, and the blood had stopped. Thinking of the act of plucking up her courage to bump into the corner of the table, she couldn't help but feel hatred in her heart. She had exhausted her organs. Could it be better than Hua Xiwan's beauty? face
In the inner courtyard, Hua Xiwan smiled and said, "Why did you go to court so early today?"
"Today I want to entertain distinguished guests, of course I will find a way to go back to the mansion earlier," Yan Jinqiu changed out of the royal robe embroidered with dragon patterns on his body and put on his usual brocade robe, "Are they going to arrive at this hour?"
"How can it be so fast, you just went to court, isn't my grandfather the same as my father?" Hua Xiwan smiled, "I thought you would feel pity for your poor cousin just now."
"You are a dignified princess. There are many ways to toss her. Where do you need to do it yourself?" Yan Jinqiu said mockingly, "Yuan Shuyi really treats me as a brainless man."
Hua Xiwan chuckled and said nothing. In fact, Yuan Shuyi didn't underestimate Yan Jinqiu's scheming, but she forgot one thing. The bitter plan is only useful for those who pity her. For a man who doesn't have her in his heart, as long as Any deliberate means will become invisible.
Yuan Shuyi calculated all the coincidences, but not the hearts of the people. Not to mention that Yan Jinqiu knew that he would not hurt a woman by this means, even if she really hurt Yuan Shuyi that much, it was just a trivial matter for Yan Jinqiu.
In the eyes of a man who doesn't care about her, she is nothing.
He stretched out his hand to tidy up the front of Yan Jinqiu's clothes, Yan Jinqiu held her hand and smiled at her.
When Bai Xia next to him saw this scene, he somehow thought of such a sentence.
The gentleman is unparalleled in the world, and the people of Mo Shang are like jade.
Hongying gently pulled the corner of her clothes, and then whispered, "Let's go to the outer courtyard to meet the lady and the old lady. I'm afraid they will be here now."
Bai Xia nodded, and the two of them walked out of the inner courtyard lightly. Hong Ying said, "Has Yuan Shuyi been sent to the torture room to be tortured?"
Bai Xia frowned: "This girl Yuan has a deep mind and is cruel enough to herself."
It's a pity that she met a man like the prince and a woman like the princess.
"This woman is really shameless," Hongying said dissatisfiedly, "I really don't know how the provincial government will divide her up. Do you think those rumors were not lively enough?"
Knowing that Yuan Shuyi has some thoughts on the prince, the province in the palace still has to assign people to the palace. Isn't this difficult for the princess
Too bullying.
"There are so many people in the province in the palace, who knows what they think?" Bai Xiaqian smiled and looked back at the main courtyard, "As long as there is a gully in the princess' heart, she will not be afraid of everything."
How can a truly powerful woman be stumped by these little problems
"You're right, the princess is so smart, how can Yuan Shuyi's little tricks do to the princess?"
Bai Xia smiled.
It seemed that Yuan Shuyi was planning to fail the princess just now, but maybe the princess deliberately lured Yuan Shuyi to take this risky move
