Mrs. Ji smiled and said, "This girl is Miss Li Mei who brought out the herb."
Shen Miao stared at her stubbornly.
The reason why Mrs. Mei has been favored in the harem for so many years is that even Fu Sheng was able to stand firmly as the new crown prince. The seventy-two concubines of the three palaces and six courtyards, which one is the fuel-efficient lamp, Fu Xiu Yi favored her alone, and she was not. Ordinary women can handle it. Those who are more beautiful than her are not as smart as her, those who are smarter than her are not as beautiful as hers, advance when they should advance, and retreat when they should retreat. They are obviously full of scheming to the end, but they always give people a sense of recklessness. He is arrogant but guards his own proportions, has beauty, but knows when he is the most beautiful posture. The concubines in the harem used to talk behind their backs, if she wanted to, no man in the world would not surrender under her skirt.
Just like at this moment, she came in at this time wearing Shen Miao’s clothes, it was just a dignified, even somewhat conservative clothes, and she was wearing a lively look, naturally, to set off Shen Miao More embarrassed.
Mrs. Mei has a pair of extremely charming eyes, like a cat waking up in the early afternoon, with a careless laziness. Shen Miao stared at her so strangely that she couldn't help but look at Shen Miao, she was quite surprised, but it was just right on a point that would not be rude.
She was surprised by this idea but was caught by the nearest Madam Ji and Ji Yushu, both of them looked at Shen Miao at the same time, but they were both startled when they saw Shen Miao's eyes. But in the next second, Shen Miao lowered her head and raised her head again, but changed to a smile, as if those were all illusions.
“It is a neat person.” Shen Miao said softly.
Uncle Tang couldn't help frowning, what Shen Miao said was like in the palace, no, the main rooms in the mansion were as critical and contemptuous as the concubines who first entered the door. But Shen Miao was not a person who would make trouble unreasonably, she didn't even care about Lu Wan'er, how could she be sensitive enough to be jealous with someone she met for the first time
Luo Tan sighed in her heart. Earlier, Uncle Tang said that the pair of sister and brother were also very outstanding. She didn't think so when she saw Li Ke. Feel. Luo Tan always felt that among the women she knew, the most unique one was Shen Miao, aside from her appearance, the dignified atmosphere in Shen Miao's bones was a beauty that no woman would envy. This Li Mei has a completely different feeling, if Shen Miao is a prosperous peony in full bloom, the king of flowers, this woman is a poppy, with a strong temptation, charming, beautiful, with a hint of Unexplainable, as if evil-like beauty.
Shen Miao said, "Is Miss Li from Great Liang?"
“Exactly.” Li Mei glanced at Shen Miao in surprise and smiled, “It’s just that I just came to Long Ye.”
"Ms. Li and Brother Li are from Qinzhou." Mrs. Ji smiled and said, "When I first arrived in Long Ye, I revealed the list at the gate of the city and saved Jing Xing's life."
“The list was revealed when you first arrived?” Shen Miao looked at Li Mei with a half-smiling smile, “Should this mean that Your Highness is lucky? Or is it that Miss Li is lucky?”
This time, almost everyone in the room could hear Shen Miao's hostility. Li Mei was also stunned, Li Ke took a step forward and gave Shen Miao a bow with a smile: "Since His Royal Highness Prince is also fine, I and my elder sister will take a step first, there are so many nuisances in the mansion these days, we are offended. ."
These Li Ke's words were neither humble nor arrogant, but they seemed to be a momentary act of anger out of self-esteem after listening to Shen Miao's words. Madam Ji was stunned for a while, before she could ask Shen Miao what was going on, she subconsciously embraced Li Ke and Li Mei and said, "What are you talking about, you saved Jing Xing's life, how can you say you offended? , speaking of it, we haven't reciprocated..."
Li Mei said with a smile, "Mrs. Ji, I told you before that I came here to reveal the list by accident, and I didn't think too much about it at the time. This herb is here to detoxify and save lives. People don't use it, and they hold it in vain. What can save people is naturally used to save people. This can only be considered that this herb has a relationship with His Royal Highness, and the rest can't be said more. "
The other ladies in the hall were amazed for a while. They looked beautiful and had a good temperament. It was rare to be generous and not greedy for power. Seeing that he was indeed a very good person, on the other hand, Shen Miao, inexplicably came up to make things difficult for others, so she did not have the bearing of being Prince Rui's concubine.
Li Mei looked at Shen Miao again and said apologetically, "It's just this clothes, the people's daughter has soiled her clothes before wearing the princess's clothes, please don't mind the princess, the people's daughter will wash it and she will definitely take care of herself. Return it to the princess, and there will be no trace of passing through."
Shen Miao looked at her fixedly.
When Shen Miao met Madam Mei, it was after she had returned to Ming Qi from Qin State. She had expected that there were many concubines in the palace, but only Madam Mei was the one who gave birth to a son. At first, she didn't believe how much Fu Xiu Yi's stern temperament could favor a woman, but after seeing it with her own eyes, she had to admit it.
Mei Furen was deeply favored by Fu Xiu Yi, so when she first faced Shen Miao, she never bowed her head, even if she bowed her head, it was a pretentious, perfunctory bow that did not make anyone happy. Even if Shen Miao was the queen, in the harem, Mei Furen seemed to be higher than her, just like Fu Sheng was always more favored than Fu Ming.
But now, the woman who always raised her chin lightly and looked at her full of mockery with a humility, called herself "the people's girl" and called her "the princess".
How big is the world, so big that a person can start over twice in his life, how small is the world, so small that after two lifetimes, he can still meet the enemy of the previous life again.
Seeing that Shen Miao did not answer, Li Mei was a little embarrassed, she smiled and was about to pull Li Ke away, Madam Ji wanted to persuade him to stop, but in the Prince Rui's residence it was Shen Miao who was the mistress and she had no reason to overtake Shen Miao to make up her mind.
“Wait.” Shen Miao said suddenly.
Li Ke and Li Mei were stunned for a moment, they turned their heads and saw Shen Miao smiling as gentle as water, she said, "Since the life of His Highness has been saved, he is the benefactor of the entire Prince Rui's residence. If you two leave now, is it not to let Prince Rui's mansion was poked in the spine and said to be cold-hearted?"
"How can it be said that the palace has a cold temper." Li Mei shook his head and smiled, "This is our idea."
“One has to wait for His Highness to complete before leaving.” Shen Miao smiled slightly, “Otherwise, the Prince’s Palace cannot afford to give up halfway.”
The meaning of these words is that there is some doubt in it, if the legendary herb that was passed down is actually a fake, and Xie Jing Xing relapses in a few days, where will he go to find someone at that time
Mrs. Ji and Ji Yushu were a little embarrassed, Shen Miao was not an aggressive person, how could she be so strict with this sister and brother? People are saviors, no matter how you can't use this attitude, even if you have suspicions in your heart, there is no need to say them.
But Shen Miao knew that these two siblings might not stay because of the Prince's Mansion's gratitude, but they would definitely stay because of the Prince's Mansion's suspicion.
Because their life is to leave a good name for doing all the bad things, and people who do not allow themselves to have a stain, how can they let someone pour a pot of dirty water on them for no reason
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Li Ke showed indignation, and he said, "Don't worry, we will definitely be here and witness the recovery of His Royal Highness!"
Shen Miao smiled, "That's fine, the Prince's Mansion owes you such a 'kindness', if we don't stay, how can we 'repay'."
She doubted for a while, and said in return for a while, such an ambiguous attitude made people a little confused. Li Mei looked at her thoughtfully, Shen Miao noticed her gaze and smiled again, "I still have some matters, so I will not be here to accompany you here." Then she said to Madam Ji, "My aunt finds and leads you all for me. Madam will be fine." As he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something, stopped in front of Li Mei, and said with a smile, "I look at this dress that is odd for you, but it looks like it was made for you, since If it fits, you don't have to take it off and return it to me, just treat it as if I gave it to you."
Shen Miao was talking about giving clothes, but it was not like giving clothes, as if he was gifting something, but Uncle Tang was naturally slick, and today Shen Miao’s inexplicable actions made her a little confused. It was not until Shen Miao left that she looked at Luo Tan.
Luo Tan stuck out her tongue: "Don't ask me, I don't know." She turned around and followed.
Mrs. Ji looked at Li Mei and Li Ke a little ashamed: "Princess Princess has been worrying about the Prince's condition these days. She is probably a little sensitive. I hope you two will take more care."
"The heart of boxing can naturally be understood." Li Mei smiled.
"Then let's talk inside first." Mrs. Ji said with a smile.
Ji Yushu also looked at Li Ke, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Li, please."
Shen Miao returned to the room, Jing Zhe Gu Yu saw her coming back and firstly greeted her with surprise and said, “Madam, you are considered to be back! The servants are anxious these days, I’m afraid that something is wrong with you.”
When it was clear that Shen Miao was in a state of embarrassment, the two of them were stunned, and Jing Zhe asked, "Madam... What is going on here? Did you suffer any grievances?"
Shen Miao’s clothes were dirty and disheveled and her expression was surprisingly ugly, upon closer inspection, she seemed to feel a little lost, as if she had suffered a huge blow.
Gu Yu was still smart, and said, "Madam, this servant will go and put some water for you first, wash your body first, and then drink a bowl of hot porridge. Your Highness is all right. After you have rested, think about things slowly. It’s not too late.” Pulling Jing Zhe again, he went to put hot water for Shen Miao.
After the hot water was placed, Shen Miao sent the two away and sat in the wooden bucket by herself, the water temperature was just right, but at this moment Shen Miao felt as cold as ice and snow.
How did Mrs. Mei appear in Great Liang? How could they have become Xie Jing Xing's savior by accident? She endured untold hardships to not kill Mrs. Mei at first sight. It was also because this was the residence of Prince Rui, and she couldn't explain her actions at all.
But no matter how much she bears it, today's strange appearance of her still falls in the eyes of everyone, and it is unknown what others will think of her. I am afraid that these people are suspicious in their hearts at the moment, is she jealous or something, but Shen Miao wants to find out more, why did Madam Mei come to Great Liang
In her previous life, Shen Miao went to Qin as a hostage, and when she came back, Madam Mei had already entered the palace. It was heard that Mrs. Mei was the daughter of a courtier that Fu Xiuyi met during his eastward expedition, but now that Fu Xiuyi has not yet gone to the east, it is natural that he will not be able to meet Mrs. Mei, and Mrs. Mei is now in Great Liang.
Could it be that Mrs. Mei in her previous life also arrived in Great Liang? According to this time, before Madam Mei met Fu Xiu Yi, she had already met Xie Jing Xing in advance
Then why did Mrs. Mei become Fu Xiu Yi's favorite concubine in the end, why did she come to Ming Qi... Could it be that this is also what Xie Jing Xing meant? Shen Miao couldn't help but fight a cold war.
In the previous life, she and Xie Jing Xing never met, let alone come to Long Ye with Xie Jing Xing. Xie Jing Xing did not come to Ming Qi's tribute banquet either, Shen Miao was Fu Xiu Yi's wife and Xie Jing Xing was in a coma in Long Ye as well as he was now, the passing Mrs. Mei saved him, then at least they should not be hostile. ... Then if Madam Mei was originally from Great Liang, but ended up being the favored concubine of Emperor Ming Qi, could it be that she is also a spy
It was like Xie Jing Xing was clearly the Prince of Great Liang, but he became the Young Marquis of the Marquis of Lin'an in Ming Qi's Dingjing. Could Madam Mei be a spy sent by Great Liang
But in this case, there was no need for Mrs. Mei to give birth to Fu Sheng for Fu Xiu Yi, and finally made Fu Sheng the crown prince.
Her brows were getting tighter and tighter, but in comparison, what made her feel the most terrifying was whether Madam Mei and Xie Jing Xing were allies in her previous life. If the Mei Furen in the previous life was someone sent by the Great Liang Royal Family to Ming Qi, no matter what, Shen Miao's final fate was inextricably linked with the Great Liang Royal Family. Fu Ming and Wan Yu who could never be recovered, how should she and Xie Jing Xing deal with each other
As she thought to herself, Shen Miao did not even know when the water in the wooden bucket became cold. Still Jing Zhe could not put it down in his heart and came to knock on the door to call her, Shen Miao was just walking, and when she touched the water again, she was surprisingly cold. She wiped her body clean, put on her clothes and went out, and saw Luo Tan first.
Luo Tan leaned forward and asked, "Little cousin, don't you like that Li Mei?"
Shen Miao said, "Why do you say that?"
"You have always been very polite to people. But you are very strange to this Li Mei, just like you were to Chang Zai Qing at the beginning." Luo Tan thought for a while: "Then Chang Zai Qing was not a good person in the end, could it be that this Li Mei is also Isn't it? Speaking of which, I always feel that you don't like this Li Mei much more than Chang Zaiqing."
Shen Miao twisted her hair with a dry handkerchief and said lightly, "If I say she is a bad person, do you believe it?"
"Is she really a bad person?" Luo Tan was stunned, "But it doesn't look like it at all."
Shen Miao shook her head, no matter what she said, everything was for nothing until there was no evidence. She said, "Are you going back?"
Luo Tan was stunned: "Aren't you going to see your brother-in-law?"
Shen Miao paused and said, "I am very tired today and want to go to bed earlier."
"Okay." Luo Tan nodded, "You've been running around for a long time these past few days, and everyone has lost a lot of weight. It's better to take a good rest, and I won't bother you anymore." After thinking about it, she added: "If you think there is something wrong with Li Mei, you can also tell me that in this Great Liang, only we have the same blood in our bones."
After Luo Tan left, Shen Miao turned cold and said to Jing Zhe, "Call Mo Qing to me."
It was rare for her to take matters so solemnly, especially today, with a faint murderous aura that made Jing Zhe and Gu Yu dare not ask any more questions, and went out to look for someone without saying a word.
Mo Qing walked in quickly, Shen Miao had the door of the house closed tightly, and without anyone else, she asked Mo Qing, "Where does the sister and brother live in the mansion now?"
Mo Qing thought that Shen Miao had something important to instruct him, when he heard the words, he was a little stunned and said, "Live in an empty room in the side courtyard."
“You killed them for me.” Shen Miao said.
Mo Qing was stunned.
Since following Shen Miao, Mo Qing has been seeing Shen Miao's situation in his eyes, and it is not too much to describe it as a dire situation. There were always people calculating and people shooting arrows everywhere. Under such circumstances, Shen Miao never suffered any loss. She instructed Mo Qing to do this and that. In fact, many of them were eye-for-annual, but it was the first time that she directly said "you killed them for me" like today.
Mo Qing looked at Shen Miao and hesitated for a while before asking, “Madam, they…”
"They have a feud with me, and the blood and sea are deeply feuding. If the two of them will not get rid of the endless troubles, you will kill them for me." She said.
Before Mo Qing could answer, he suddenly heard a voice from outside the window: "This is not a good plan."
The two looked back and saw Jing Zhe was walking in a hurry, not even closing the window. It just so happened that it was dark in the evening and there was no one who knew when there were more people in front of the window, but it was Pei Lang.
Shen Miao motioned for him to come in, Pei Lang walked in, glanced at Mo Qing and shook his head to Shen Miao, "It is not a good plan to kill someone rashly."
Shen Miao stared at him coldly, Madam Mei's appearance reminded her of those dark days in the past, and she did not even have a good face towards Pei Lang.
Pei Lang touched his nose inexplicably, coughed twice, and still said, "The sister and brother are living in the Prince's Mansion now, if you kill them right now, it's reasonable, the Prince's Mansion can't get rid of it. A prince's mansion, with countless guards, can't even protect the lives of a pair of siblings, do you think others will believe it? They will only say that this is the hands of the prince's mansion."
"Secondly, what you've done outside today is too much. You probably don't know it. There are rumors outside that you are jealous of Li Mei's beauty, and you deliberately made things difficult for her. I didn't know why you did this before, but now I heard about you and their two brothers and sisters. People have hatred, but I understand. Since you have hatred with them, you shouldn't show it. Once you show it, you will be seen by others. If something happens to this sister and brother, the first person to be suspected is you."
"Third, you asked Mo Qing to kill for you, which shows that you don't trust others, including Prince Rui's subordinates. But Mo Qing is really the opponent of other guards in this mansion? The fist is hard to beat the four hands, and if you are usually caught, Prince Rui will definitely ask you why. If you let Mo Qing take action and don’t tell Prince Rui, there must be a reason why you can’t tell others. If it is discovered, your secret will not be hidden. "
"So, this plan is not a good plan." Pei Lang finished in one breath.
Shen Miao stared at him for a while, then suddenly smiled, she said, "Mr. Pei, are you always so rational?" Without waiting for Pei Lang to speak, she sneered again, "That's right, if you are irrational and aloof, then How to live above people."
Pei Lang did not understand her words, and only listened to Shen Miao and said, "You are right, it is indeed the case, I cannot rashly kill people in the Prince's Mansion, and besides, let them simply die so cheaply. , and it's too cheap for these two."
Mo Qing did not speak, Shen Miao said to him, "You go out and check it out for me first, I want to know the details of this sister and brother, no matter the details!"
Mo Qing left in response.
Shen Miao took a deep breath, the enemy was right in front of her eyes, but she could not do it now, this kind of feeling of scratching her lungs was really uncomfortable and made her almost want to take out her anger.
Mo Qing went out. Pei Lang looked at Shen Miao and thought for a while before asking, "You are very resentful towards this sister and brother."
Shen Miao sneered, "Why did you say this?"
“I have never seen you that will kill you when you come.” He looked at Shen Miao with some probing, “It shows that you have fear and beware of them in your heart. This sister and brother… are very powerful?”
Shen Miao's heart skipped a beat, looking at Pei Lang in front of her, she felt a surge of anger in her heart and asked, "Mr. Pei is always so able to grasp the minds of others, so do you know what it is for them and me? Deep hatred?"
"Will you tell me?"
“They owe me two lives that cannot be recovered.” Shen Miao said, “Even killing them 10,000 times will not be enough to compensate!”
Pei Lang was startled by the obvious fierceness in Shen Miao's eyes, he said, "I can help you."
Shen Miao stared at him: "Why should I trust you?"
These words made Pei Lang a little surprised. A few days ago, he clearly felt that Shen Miao's attitude towards him had eased, and he seemed to be relieved. He always felt that the relationship between the two could not be as tense as before. But today's Shen Miao was like a hedgehog with thorns erected all over her body, guarding sharply, her attitude towards him returned to the past, and she was even more distant than before.
As if they were the enemy.
Pei Lang knew that this must have something to do with that pair of siblings. He thought about it for a while, and then asked, "I heard that the siblings are from Great Liang. You should have never been to Great Liang in the past, nor have you seen the two of them. How could you have such a deep hatred with them?"
“Mr. Pei,” Shen Miao interrupted him, “I have already made it clear what I can tell you. You are also clear about my attitude towards this pair of siblings. I do not expect Mr. Pei to be able to help in it. I make suggestions, but I also ask Mr. Pei not to interfere, let alone tell others about it."
An embarrassing anger suddenly arose in Pei Lang’s heart. He also had a arrogant body and was willing to spend his entire life, but Shen Miao used Liu Ying to force him into the imperial court and became Fu Xiu Yi’s person, and inexplicably became a spy and left. exotic. And sincerity was regarded as a malicious speculation, he also had the urge to turn around and leave. But when she saw Shen Miao's indifferent gaze, she felt that she could not get angry.
As if seeing her, there will be inexplicable guilt hit.
He sneered and said, "You don't trust me."
Shen Miao said coldly, "I don't believe anyone."
After Pei Lang left, Shen Miao sat back at the table, as if she had exhausted all her strength, but felt that she was very exhausted.
Li Mei and Li Ke, living in Prince Rui's mansion in such a capacity, can't kill them, but they can only be trapped in this prince's mansion first, and the revenge must be avenged, otherwise, she is not worthy of being the mother of two children. .
Just thinking about it, Jing Zhe pushed the door and walked in and said to Shen Miao, "Madam, Your Highness has just woken up and wants to see Madam."
Shen Miao was stunned for a moment with a complicated look on her face, and after a while she said, "I see."
The Imperial Family of Great Liang, Xie Jing Xing, Mei Furen's sister and brother, Shen Miao had guessed over the possible relationships among them, the more she thought about it, the more terrifying she felt. If those terrifying conjectures were all true, Shen Miao did not know what kind of reaction she should make.
The appearance of Mrs. Mei disturbed her plans and mood, and it was difficult for her to face even Xie Jing Xing. She was afraid that others would see the resentment in her heart and Xie Jing Xing would confirm the terrible conjecture in her heart.
The bedroom was filled with a strong aroma of medicine, and the servants who came and went were busy with their own work. Xie Jing Xing woke up, there were more things to think about, and his condition needed to be well cared for. Gao Yang was walking out of the medicine box carrying the medicine box and was stunned when he saw Shen Miao, “He just woke up, he woke up once in the morning and asked about you. The wound is still not healed, you follow him.”
Shen Miao responded and pushed the door in.
Xie Jing Xing only wore middle clothes and outer clothes, and half leaned on the couch to read. I don't know if it's because of the injury, but these days he looks thinner, but his outline is more distinct. When it was quiet, it was like the noble son of a family, arrogantly and elegantly flipping through the book, and he couldn't tell that he was still on the line of life and death a few days ago.
Shen Miao wanted to go in, but she took a step forward, but she was hesitant, as if taking this step, she would face a problem that she did not dare to face. She was afraid of the answer, and instinctively wanted to avoid the question.
However, there are no problems in life that cannot be avoided forever.
Xie Jing Xing did not lift his eyes and said lightly, "Since you are here, why don't you come in?"
Shen Miao paused, clenched her fists and walked in slowly. As he approached the bed, he sat down and said, "Are you alright? I heard Uncle Tang said you were awake, thinking that you were going to rest, so I didn't bother."
Xie Jing Xing was probably not yet fully recovered and his voice was still hoarse. He suddenly curled his lips into a smile, and said, "Interesting."
Shen Miao looked at him, his eyes were still on the book and his voice was cold.
"You dare not look at me?"
“How could it be?” Shen Miao smiled, “Is it confused.”
Xie Jing Xing also smiled slightly, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, he closed the page with a “snap”, threw the book aside, turned his head and looked at Shen Miao for the first time since Shen Miao came in.
His eyes were sharp, but with a hint of faint anger, he asked, "Shen Miao, is it that you won't come over if I don't let people call you?"
