When Nangong Yue came back from the palace, as soon as the Zhulun chariot stopped at the second gate, Que'er came up to greet her and said, "Shi Zifei, the second wife and eldest aunt are here."
Mother and big sister
Nangong Yue was slightly surprised, and nodded with a smile, knowing that they must be for what happened yesterday.
Lin Shi and Nangong Cheng were in the Xishao room, and when they saw Nangong Yue coming back, they both stood up involuntarily.
"Mother, big sister."
Before Nangong Yue finished seeing the ceremony, Mrs. Lin pulled her over, looked up and down, and said worriedly: "Yue'er, the maids said that you went to the palace, the queen mother, the queen mother did not make things difficult for you Bar?"
Mrs. Lin heard Lin Qingqing talk about what happened at the Chrysanthemum Banquet yesterday. She almost passed out from shock and wanted to come over immediately, but was persuaded by Lin Qingqing, saying that Nangong Yue must be in a bad mood, and she must be asked to Set your mind to entertain. So, early this morning, she hurried to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. When the maids said that Nangong Yue had been announced into the palace by the Queen Mother, her heart suddenly ached.
The second princess is the granddaughter of the empress dowager. Could it be that the empress dowager was also persuaded by the Zhang family to allow Yue'er to give in and allow the second princess' tablet to enter the door
Lin waited restlessly for a long time, but instead of waiting for Nangong Yue to come back, she waited for Nangong Cheng instead.
Both of them were absent-minded, and they were not even in the mood to use the lunch prepared by the maids. They have been waiting until now...
Seeing that Nangong Yue looked happy, and there didn't seem to be any sadness or anger on her face, Lin was slightly relieved, but she was afraid that she was young and ignorant. If she accidentally let those shameless Zhang family coax her in, then But just...
"Mother." Nangong Yue held Lin's arm and said in a brisk tone, "Don't worry. When I entered the palace, Mrs. Zhang and Concubine Zhang were already kneeling outside Yongle Palace. The Queen Mother is not so confused. "
Lin was finally relieved, and she recited the Buddha's voice in her mouth, and her heartstrings, which had been tense all the time, also loosened, making her so weak that she almost collapsed.
Nangong Yue hurriedly supported her, and Baihe and Baihui hurried up, helped Lin to the chair and sat down.
"Mother, big sister, don't worry." Nangong Yue said with shining eyes, "I can't afford it."
"There are such shameless people in this world." The more Lin thought about it, the angrier she became, and she said angrily, "Yue'er, don't worry, your father and uncle have said that the family will make decisions for you, and you will never be bullied you go."
A married woman and her mother's family are both prosperous and both prosperous. The Nangong family will never sit back and ignore such rude requests from the Zhang family and let their daughter suffer such humiliation.
"Mother, please reassure father and uncle." Nangong Yue said confidently, "The Zhang family can't get anything good in this matter. I'm the daughter of the Nangong family, and I won't embarrass the Nangong family!"
"The most important thing is that you live well." Lin stroked her hair and said distressedly: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I have lost so much weight." The one who has been raised by my side for a few more years, but just...
Seeing that Lin's eyes were red, Nangong Yue quickly said coquettishly: "Mom, I'm not so thin, my cheeks are round!" As she spoke, she pinched her own cheeks on purpose... Well, it seems that there is no flesh up!
Nangong Yue rolled her eyes with a guilty conscience. These days, she has been exhausting herself, and she seems to have really lost weight...
"Mother, don't talk about this." Nangong Yue hurriedly changed the subject, and asked Nangong Cheng, "Why did Big Sister come today?"
Nangong Cheng said with a look of guilt: "Sister, I had something to do in my house yesterday, so I left early, and I didn't do anything to help you..." She only heard about what happened at the Chrysanthemum Banquet early this morning. things.
Nangong Yue deliberately avoided the topic of the Zhang family, and asked, "Big sister, you and Aunt Pei hurried back, but what happened to the second room?"
Nangong Cheng arrived at the Chrysanthemum Banquet that day and left in a hurry not long after. Hearing Nangong Yue's question now, he looked a little embarrassed. After he glanced at Mrs. Lin, he hesitated and said: "... not long after my second younger sibling returned to her mother's house, The parents of her natal family came to the door and clamored to let the mother make decisions for the second sibling. The second aunt thought that this was a matter in their room, and there was no need for our eldest room to meddle in their own business... The two families began to argue. Next People have no choice but to rush over and call my mother and me back."
Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows and couldn't help asking: "What about Mrs. Pei?"
Nangong Cheng said with a wry smile: "Grandmother said she is unwell, so she won't see any guests."
Lin frowned and said, "I thought Jian'anbo Mansion was clean, but I didn't expect it to be so unruly.... Cheng'er, why didn't you come back and talk to us!"
"Second Aunt, don't worry, the eldest son and my father-in-law and mother-in-law are very good to me." Nangong Cheng's face was shy, and his cheeks were faintly flushed. Seeing this, both Lin Shi and Nangong Yue were relieved. Apparently the first wife Nangong Cheng married was not bad, but the second wife was a little bit worse.
But for a married woman, everything goes smoothly, as long as her parents-in-law and husband can look towards her, this day will only get better.
Seeing that Lin's and Nangong Cheng's attention was finally diverted, Nangong Yue was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Lin turned to herself and said distressedly: "Yue'er, if the Zhang family doesn't know each other anymore, don't be alone Carry it, you must come back and tell your mother... "
"Mom, don't worry..."
"Elder Concubine! Eternal Concubine!"
Que'er hurried in from the outside at this time, with a happy smile on her face, she blessed the three people present, and said happily: "The concubine, the second wife, the eldest aunt... The servant just got the news, and the queen mother sent Zhang Jia Er The girl went to Huangjue Temple to become a monk and pray for the second princess."
"real!?"
Both Lin Shi and Nangong Cheng showed surprise at the same time, and Lin Shi clasped his hands together and said directly that he would go to the temple tomorrow to offer a stick of incense and add more money for sesame oil.
Nangong Yue was also a little surprised, and then thought that Princess Yuncheng must have stepped forward for her, she couldn't help feeling warm in her heart, and said with a smile: "Mother, big sister, you should feel at ease now."
"Thanks to the queen mother for making decisions for you."
The Lin family was really relieved now, Miss Zhang Er was ordered to become a monk, which meant that the queen mother was not happy with this ridiculous proposal, and with the queen mother making the decision, she didn't have to worry about her daughter being at a disadvantage.
Contrary to the jubilation of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, Concubine Zhang, who had been kneeling outside the main hall of Changle Palace for three hours, heard the news as soon as she returned to her palace. She was stunned for a long time I didn't come back to my senses, and the maids were so scared that they shouted anxiously: "My lady, my lady, are you okay?"
Concubine Zhang moved her vermilion lips, and it took a long time before she managed to say, "What did you just say, what happened to Miss Zhang Er?"
"Your Majesty," the court lady lowered her head fearfully and repeated again when she saw her complexion, "...the Empress Dowager decreed that Second Miss Zhang be sent to become a nun to pray for the Second Princess in Huangjue Temple. Second Miss Zhang just He has been sent to Huangjue Temple to be ordained."
Zhang Bin's originally pale complexion almost lost the last trace of blood, her delicate body shook twice, and she almost fainted.
"Yuncheng..." Zhang Bin gritted her teeth in hatred.
In Changle Palace, she heard Yuncheng's proposal to let Zhang Yiren lose her hair. At that time, the queen mother did not agree, and she thought that the queen mother didn't take it seriously, but she didn't expect that the queen mother actually made the order, and she didn't turn around at all. Even if she asks the emperor now, it may not work. The emperor has always been filial, so how could he go against the queen mother's wishes for a mere girl from the Zhang family.
The niece, Zhang Yiren, is the best-looking girl in the Zhang family's generation, and she is also a legitimate daughter. She could have been used for marriage, but she didn't want to just let it go.
Her daughter is gone, and now she has a niece, her heart hurts like bleeding!
"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is here!" At this moment, a court lady came in to report.
Zhang Binqiang cheered up, and hurriedly said: "Quickly, invite the third prince to come in." Then he waved his hand and said, "Back off."
The maid straightened up as if she had been pardoned, and retreated in small steps.
Han Lingfu hurried into the hall.
As soon as Zhang Cong saw her son, her eyes were sore, and she cried: "Your Majesty, you are here, your cousin...she..."
"My concubine, I already know about this." Han Lingfu sat down on the armchair beside him after saluting to Concubine Zhang, his brows furrowed tightly, "My concubine, what did you and your grandmother say when they came to the queen mother? Why did the Queen Mother not only disagree, but also ordered that Cousin Eun should lose her hair?"
"Just as you ordered."
Concubine Zhang recounted what happened in the Changle Palace in detail, and added, "... From the very beginning, I could see that the queen mother was really moved. I believe that as long as I ask again, the queen mother will definitely Agreed." With a puzzled look on her face, she said, "For some reason, the Empress Dowager suddenly became angry, severely scolded me and your grandmother, and made us kneel outside the palace as punishment..." In front of so many palace officials Especially in front of Nangong Yue, when she knelt outside and listened to the maid recite "Female Training", Concubine Zhang felt an unprecedented humiliation.
Han Lingfu's brows were deeply furrowed, and he was very puzzled.
Whether it is the former East Palace or the current Harem, it is the most complicated place in the world, but Niangqin has always been able to handle it with ease. It should be impossible to say wrong things or do wrong things at this critical moment today, and annoy the Queen Mother.
So, what went wrong
Han Lingfu is very confident. Once the safety of the emperor is at stake, the queen mother will be more cautious, and she would rather believe in something than believe in nothing. He was at least 90% sure that the queen mother would agree to allow her cousin to enter the Zhennan palace in the name of the second princess.
Why
Why did things go the way they are now
Fall short!
Han Lingfu was silent for a moment, but he was someone who could afford to let go, and said decisively: "My wife, no matter what the reason... things have come to this point, we must not stop so easily..."
Zhang Bin knew that her son had a strong mind, so she hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think should be done?"
A trace of gloom flashed in Han Lingfu's eyes, he sneered, and said decisively: "Even if Cousin Rin can't enter the gate of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, Sister Huang's spiritual position must marry Xiao Yi!"
Concubine Zhang was a little worried that if she continued to make trouble, she would offend the Queen Mother again, so she hesitated and asked, "Do you really want to continue?"
"Mother-in-law, listen to me." Han Lingfu patiently explained to her, "...there have been many good news from southern Xinjiang in the past two days. Xiao Yi has made a lot of contributions this time. , coupled with the support of his father, as long as he is alive, he will be able to become the king of Zhennan in the future... The son of the king and concubine of Zhennan may have no hope. In any case, we must seize this Xiao Yi !"
"but… "
"Mother's concubine." Han Lingfu continued, "Because of this incident, our enmity with Nangong Yue has been settled. Nangong Yue is narrow-minded, cunning and holds grudges. Since she is Xiao Yi's eldest concubine, she will be here in the future." He blows the pillow wind in his ear, and at that time, it will be difficult for Xiao Yi to stand by our side."
Zhang Bin thought carefully for a moment, and finally nodded, "What the emperor said is true!"
Thinking of Nangong Yue, Zhang Concubine couldn't help gnashing her teeth, and said bitterly, "This Nangong Yue is really hateful. Your imperial sister is gone, and now she can marry into Zhennan Prince's Mansion just to fulfill her wish. Competing with her, this Nangong Yue disagrees, and she is so aggressive, really... Speaking of it, if it wasn't because she was so jealous that she couldn't tolerate your imperial sister, your imperial sister would not have chased Xiao Yi all the way, let alone Because of this, she will be expelled from the imperial mausoleum by the queen mother, and she will go there early in the end."
"My concubine, whether it's for the deep hatred of the imperial sister, or for the grand ambition of the child, this matter must not be the same." Han Lingfu clenched his fists, with a gloomy look in his eyes, "As long as the imperial sister's spiritual position can enter Zhennan Prince's Mansion, in the future, I will let my father be the master and right my sister... how can the majestic Princess Dayu stay in the position of side concubine for a long time. At that time, I want to see how Nangong Yue will deal with herself!"
Nangong Yue made his Xiao'er only a concubine, how could he let her dominate the name of Zhennan Wang's concubine like this!
Concubine Zhang pondered and nodded, "Then... Emperor, what should we do."
Han Lingfu sneered and said, "My boy has an idea..."
…
The second girl of the Zhang family was ordered to become a monk to pray for the second princess. This explosive news soon aroused a lot of discussion.
What happened on Juri has long been spread among the famous families in the capital. Although the Zhang family’s idea is a bit absurd, the second princess is the emperor’s own daughter after all, and she has always been favored. The princess went to get married and sacrificed Princess Mingyue.
One can imagine how much the emperor cared about this daughter.
In order for the second princess to return to her soul, the emperor should agree.
They had guessed that the emperor might reprimand the Zhang family symbolically first, and then announce the Zhennan Prince's concubine into the palace, so that the queen could comfort her, and then they could find an opportunity for Miss Zhang to hold her. The spirit seat of the second princess has married into the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
But now, the second girl Zhang has entered the temple, obviously this matter is not going to happen!
Some families breathed a sigh of relief, but others who were waiting to see the excitement—for example, the Qi Palace was very disappointed, and the Zhang family stayed behind closed doors, with a look of quiet contemplation, only heard that The eldest lady in the mansion was ill and called the doctor several times.
However, within a few days, the incident caused by the Zhang family was overwhelmed by another explosive news——
The Ziwei star is dim, and it seems to be falling!
I don't know when this matter started, and it was widely discussed in the royal capital, from civil and military officials to traffickers and pawns.
This Ziwei star is the "lord of fighting numbers" and the "emperor star", which can be said to represent the emperor's fate.
The current emperor is in his prime, could it be...
Is Jiangshan about to be replaced
Finally, the story of the Ziwei star was also passed on to the ears of the emperor.
In the early morning of this day, Deputy Wang Jian of the Qin Tianjian took a step forward, and bowed to report: "Your Majesty, I watched the stars at night recently, and found that Ziwei star is a little dimmer than usual..."
The emperor was shocked when he heard the words, and his sharp eyes narrowed slightly.
In the theory of astrology, I would rather believe in its existence than in its non-existence. The Ziwei star is dim. What does this represent
The emperor was shocked for a while, his face darkened immediately, and he said in a deep voice: "Wang Aiqing, do you know why the Ziwei star has dimmed, is there a way to restore the Ziwei star to its original state?"
Deputy Supervisor Wang replied: "Your Majesty, although Ziwei star is dimmer than usual, there is no other star to cover up its light..."
That is to say, there are no other new stars threatening his throne! The emperor's expression eased a little, but the bleak Ziwei star was an ominous sign after all. The emperor still frowned slightly, his eyes were still clouded.
Above the court hall, there was silence.
In the past few days, these courtiers have naturally heard rumors about the bleakness of Ziwei Star. It is fine to discuss such things in private, but they dare not come here in the court, so they all remained silent.
At this time, Yu Chengfeng, the Minister of the Ministry of War, came out and said respectfully: "My Majesty, I have also dabbled in astrology. This Ziwei star is dim, and it must be a warning from the sky." He paused intentionally, and said, "The Buddha has a saying that 'removing the dirt is like grinding a mirror'. I believe that as long as I find the reason for the warning from the heavens and remove the dirt, the brilliance of the Ziwei star will definitely be restored!"
Deputy Supervisor Wang followed up and said: "I have the courage to ask the emperor, is there any unresolved matter in the court recently? Or are there any unjust, false or wrong cases among the people? Or is there someone who is using the emperor's power to show his authority?" Blessing?... Or, what happened to the people close to the emperor?"
Thoughtful, the emperor glanced sharply at all the officials in the palace, and said coldly: "Is there any major matter that the court has concealed without reporting it?"
"I don't dare to wait." At the same time, all the ministers bowed in response, thinking to themselves: the court has been peaceful recently, if there is any major event, it will only be the war between the northern and southern borders. But now in the battle with Changdi, although the northern border army could not stand against Changdi and could not tell the winner for a while, they also stabilized the battle and killed Changdi's prestige. As for Southern Border, they won successive victories, defeated Nanman, and returned with most of the city... According to the logic, the battle situation of both sides is developing in a good direction, it should not be because of this reason
The emperor snorted coldly: "I'm sorry you don't dare!" He pondered for a while before saying, "Dali Siqing!"
The Minister of Dali Temple hurriedly came out: "The minister is here!"
"Check it out for me, have there been any unjust, false or wrongly decided cases recently!"
"I obey the order." Dali Siqing took the order, but he felt somewhat disapproving: Unjust, false and wrongly decided? There is no unjust, false and wrongly decided in this dynasty. If it is just an ordinary unjust, false and wrongly decided, I am afraid it will not affect Ziweixing. Luck!... Thinking about it this way, if there really is an unjust case, it will definitely not be an ordinary case, and the people involved will not be ordinary people...
Dali Siqing felt a chill in his heart, he almost didn't dare to think about it any more, and bowed back.
The emperor's face became darker, and he was very irritable. He ordered Liu Gonggong beside him: "Huai En, pass on my oral order, and let the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture check it carefully. If anyone dares to damage my reputation and ruin the court's laws , Severe punishment will not be negligent!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." After Eunuch Liu responded, he quickly sent his servants to Jingzhao Mansion to pass on the emperor's word of mouth.
After the emperor issued a series of orders decisively, he finally thought of the last point, and murmured in a low voice: "As for the person close to me, could it be the second princess..."
The second princess left at such a young age, the emperor was naturally sad, but what happened now, how sad is it
Thinking of the second princess, the emperor couldn't help thinking of the farce that happened a few days ago at the flower viewing banquet at Duke Enguo's mansion... Siyin remained silent.
In the Golden Luan Hall, there was silence and silence.
All the ministers heard the emperor's murmured "Second Princess", and couldn't help looking at each other.
After the court was over, acquainted ministers came out in twos and threes, who couldn't help but said: "... You said, is it really because of the second princess?"
"Who knows." Another minister said, "It's not an auspicious sign that the Ziwei star is dim."
"I heard that the second princess has an unfulfilled wish, so that her soul stays in the world for a long time..." Yu Chengfeng walked over and said worriedly, "After all, the second princess is the phoenix girl of heaven. This is the reason why Ziwei Star is dim."
Both ministers nodded in thought, at this moment, a voice interrupted him, "Your Excellency, please be careful." Nangong Mu retorted coldly, "You are also from the top two ranking Jinshi, but as a courtier, you are like a market Like traffickers and pawns, biting the root of your tongue, I am really ashamed of the sage books you read."
Yu Chengfeng became annoyed and said, "Lord Nangong! What do you mean by that?"
Nangong Mu looked down on his demeanor at all, and said solemnly: "The dimness of the Ziwei star is a celestial phenomenon, but you want to talk about the second princess's last wish, and her soul is still there, how is this different from those ignorant women and children in the countryside? "
Yu Chengfeng looked at him bitterly, at least he still remembered the order of the third prince, so he forcibly held back his breath, snorted forcefully, and flung his sleeves away.
The other two ministers who were discussing before also bowed their hands to Nangong Mu with a dry smile, and walked away quickly.
Nangong Mu stood on the spot with a gloomy expression.
The debate in the court spread unknowingly, pushing the theory of Ziwei star's bleakness to a higher level...
Even Nangong Yue, who stayed behind closed doors at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, heard about it.
Hearing Que'er talking vividly about the rumors in the market, Nangong Yue couldn't help putting down the account book in her hand, pursing her lips and chuckling.
"Concubine Shizi, you are still laughing." Lily said anxiously, "Next, they will definitely say that in order to let the second princess rest in peace, they have to let her marry into our palace. These people really, the second girl Zhang has entered the temple Not safe either."
"He was born so soon, the second princess died in vain." Nangong Yue said without any nervousness on her face, "However, I didn't expect that the third prince actually used astrology and astrology this time. gossip."
If such a careful plan had not come from Han Lingfu, it would not have been possible to do it with Zhang Concubine and the Zhang family alone.
"They really want the Second Princess' spirit seat to enter our palace?" Lily said angrily, "It's really shameless!"
"The first step is to let the second princess' spiritual seat enter the door, the second step is to adopt a child from the clan to the second princess, and the third step..." Nangong Yue sneered, "I'm afraid my existence will be an eyesore."
Nangong Yue didn't expect Han Lingfu to let Miss Zhang take the second princess's spirit seat into the door when she made the initial layout. She just wanted to be prepared for everything because she had experienced a lot in her previous life and was vigilant about everything. It really wasn't her worrying too much!
"Concubine Shizi." Lily rolled her eyes and said, "You must have an idea, right?"
"The theory of astrology is exactly what I want." Nangong Yue said with a smile, "This time, let the third prince taste what it means to 'throw a rock at his own foot'!"
Lily blinked and looked at her excitedly.
"Baihui, go to the outer courtyard and ask Zhu Xing to do something for me..."
Baihui's eyes flickered when she heard this, and she nodded repeatedly.
…
However, in just a few days, there was a new wave of rumors in the capital, which spread several times faster than before.
until…
"What did you say?! Say it again!"
In Princess Yuncheng's mansion, Yuncheng sat on the Arhat's bed with an angry face, looking at Nanny Wu below.
Grandma Wu looked terrified, but she still said bravely: "...Now there are rumors in the capital that the Ziwei star is dim because the second princess lost her virginity when she was unmarried."
No matter how Yuncheng disliked the second princess, the second princess was also a girl of the Han family, and she was crowned with the name of losing her virginity, so Yuncheng's face was not good-looking.
Yuncheng asked with a sullen face: "How can there be such rumors in the market? Doesn't Jingzhao Mansion care about it?!"
Mother Wu was sweating coldly on her forehead, and she said in her mouth: "...Your Highness, do you still remember that the second princess left the palace privately a few months ago? At that time, there were rumors that the second princess eloped with someone."
Of course, Yuncheng remembered this incident, and his face darkened a bit.
Mother Wu continued: "There were rumors that the crape myrtle star's dimness was a warning from the celestial phenomena, but I, Dayu, have been in peace and prosperity recently, and there is nothing abnormal, except that the emperor's own daughter, the second princess, died early. Therefore, there are people with good deeds Find out about the elopement of the second princess, and say that it was because the princess was buried in the imperial tomb with an unclean body, which offended the ancestors in the imperial tomb, so she used the change of Ziwei star to remind the emperor..." She swallowed her saliva , carefully glanced at Yuncheng's face, and then continued, "In the past few days... it has spread all over the capital."
Yun Cheng's face was icy cold.
Regarding the bleakness of the Ziwei star, two days ago, when she went to the palace to pay her respects to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother also mentioned that it was the deputy Wang Jian of the Qin Tianjian who observed the astrology, and it was not just nonsense.
Although the second princess eloped with others was fake, she did escape from the palace.
There hasn't been any major incidents in the court recently, and the emperor's brother is still in good health. Could it be that the Ziwei star matter really happened to the second princess
Moreover, the Empress Dowager also said that when Zhang's family performed rituals for the second princess in the Yaowang Temple, the candle in front of the Buddha suddenly fell down by itself and burned down the hall.
All these ominous omens are related to the second princess. Could it be said that the second princess is really...
Yuncheng clenched his hands tightly into fists, pondered for a moment, and ordered in a deep voice: "Nurse Wu, let the chief guard Yu send someone to check carefully along the route that the second princess left the palace that day, and find out clearly that the second princess came out of the palace. You must find out the exact whereabouts of the Empress Dowager!" As he spoke, Yuncheng's eyes shone sharply, "As soon as there is news, come back and report it immediately." Since I promised my empress to find out the matter, then Just a little bit of clues can't be let go.
"Yes, Your Highness." Mother Wu took the order to retreat.
Yuan Yuyi, who was sitting by the side, seemed to have just come back to her senses, and said with a complicated expression: "Mother, the second princess..." She could hardly believe her ears, the second princess even escaped from the palace privately?!" How did the princess get out of the palace? Why is she so courageous?" Yuan Yuyi sighed in disbelief.
Yuncheng was upset, and said disdainfully: "This second princess was raised by Concubine Zhang! It's so crooked. Fortunately, your grandmother took her by her side to teach for a while when she went to worship the Buddha, but she didn't succeed." Correct it, it seems like the Zhang family can't get on the stage in their bones!"
"Forget it, let's not talk about these bad things." Yuncheng beckoned Yuan Yuyi to sit down beside her, and said softly, "Sister Yi, you are not too young, and your father and I should also give you a hand." You look like... If you have something you like, don't be shy, just tell your mother... "
"Mother!" Yuan Yuyi blushed instantly, and turned away embarrassedly.
-off topic-
The truth will be revealed tomorrow!
