Chapter 165 He is here (3)
Palace
"Concubine, the court has already begun,...can the emperor stop her from entering the court?"
Ninth Princess Feng Shuya was dressed in rich clothes and was sitting on a Jin Tuan soft chair. She leaned on the armrest of the chair with one hand and held a round fan in the other.
Concubine Li leaned back on the couch and looked at the Ninth Princess gracefully. She lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Don't panic, your imperial brother said he will do his best."
The other palace people had already dispersed, leaving only two personal maids in the room.
"Mother and concubine, if the emperor brother can't stop him..."
Concubine Li frowned slightly, "You are a princess with a noble status, but you are still worried about getting married? Your imperial brother has warned you long ago that Mei Shijiu is not a good match, but you refused to listen, and now you have trapped yourself in it, Ya
Son, you are smart and should know what your imperial brother means. He has doted on you since you were a child. If possible, how could he not help you?"
This daughter is good at everything, but she is too stubborn about this matter.
Mei Shijiu is indeed outstanding, but he doesn't want to be a prince-in-law. This is a deadlock.
Feng Shuya pursed her lips and said with a bit of stubbornness: "Concubine, I am a princess with a noble status, but so what? I can't marry anyone I want to marry, but my daughter just wants to see the woman he talks about.
Is she the adopted daughter that the Yun family took back?"
It seems that the palace has heard about what is going on outside.
"Ya'er, I thought that your temperament should have changed a lot these years when you were with the Queen Mother. Alas! I don't know who you resemble with this stubborn temperament. He has no intention of marrying you, and he doesn't want to be a consort. Who will he marry?
, why do you care?" Concubine Li sighed and persuaded her precious daughter earnestly.
"Mother, even if Mei Shijiu doesn't want to be a consort, she won't just marry any woman."
Feng Shuya watched the fan rotating gently in her hand. She just wanted to see what was so special about that woman named Xue.
"You are still unwilling to give in after all. The whole capital knows that you like Mei Shijiu. If Mei Shijiu ends up marrying an unworthy woman, it will not only slap you in the face, but also slap the royal family in the face. Don't worry.
That woman may not be able to escape the trap laid by your imperial brother."
Concubine Li felt that her daughter should not worry about a woman who was not worthy of the spotlight, let alone compare herself with her.
"What if Mei Shijiu helps her? The emperor's plan is indeed interconnected and it is a dead end. But Mei Shijiu is very smart, so he may not be able to see clearly."
"If Mei Shijiu helps her...you should be worried."
Concubine Li looked at her daughter holding her head and rubbing her eyebrows and then continued: "This time, we were accidentally plotted by Concubine Duan. If your brother hadn't carefully discovered that something was wrong with the jade bottle placed in front of the shrine, it's hard to say what would happen now.
, your imperial brother’s arrangements are not just for the sake of your children’s love..."
"It's just a few white jade bottles or something, so what if my father knows about it? Besides, it's Concubine Duan who deliberately framed us."
"you…!"
Concubine Li took a deep breath and patted her chest, "You stupid thing, do you know why your emperor brother said that you and Mei Shijiu are not a good match? Because you are too stupid. Even if you marry Mei Shijiu, I'm afraid it will be worse than your emperor."
Brother, it is useless, but those jade vases are used for spring festivals to worship heaven. Let us offer them in front of the Buddha for baptism. If the jade vases are broken and broken, it is unlucky. Who is unlucky? Your father? Dayuan? None of them.
It can only be us, mother and daughter..."
Concubine Li doesn't want to talk anymore, she's so angry!
He was obviously not stupid, but why did he feel like he was missing a muscle when it came to Mei Shijiu?
Indeed, he was able to please the Queen Mother, stand out among the princesses, and yet be so stupid. It was only when he encountered his own marriage, and it was only in front of his mother and concubine that he put away his usual caution and cleverness.
"My daughter knows what my mother-in-law said!"
"I know you still say that!" Concubine Li glared angrily.
Feng Shuya lowered her eyebrows to hide the grievance in her eyes. Do the concubine and the emperor really dote on her as much as they said?
They just saw clearly that Mei Shijiu was beyond their control, or that the Mei family could not control it, so they did not really plan this matter for her. Only her imperial grandmother was looking forward to her marrying Mei Shijiu.
Ninth, the mother-in-law and the emperor's brother hope that she will marry someone who is beneficial to them and can help the emperor's brother fight for power in the court.
The harem and the court seem to be distinct, but in fact they are closely connected.
As soon as Chu Xuexue and Yun Yinling finished their breakfast, Mei Shijiu came suddenly.
"Ninth Young Master, are you ready to eat?"
Looking at the young woman who asked her calmly if she wanted to eat, Mei Shijiu was stunned for a moment, and then his eyebrows arched.
The little girl is so smart! Have you figured it out?
With Mei Shijiu's look, Chuxue understood everything. No wonder the Ninth Young Master came in a hurry this early in the morning. It turned out that... he knew everything.
How many spies does the Ninth Young Master have in this capital? What else can happen in this capital that can be hidden from his eyes?
In fact, Chu Xue was really impressed this time. Mei Shijiu just happened to be worried about her, so people were watching her, so she knew about it.
"You girl, you must not have eaten at this early hour. Master Ninth, please sit down quickly. I will heat up the porridge and get some jujube cakes."
The first time is familiar, the second time is familiar. Mei Shijiu has been here so many times, and Yun Yinling is no longer surprised.
It could be seen that what these two children wanted to say should be related to what Liu Yatou and Uncle Chang had said before, so she would not interrupt them to talk about business.
Yun Yinling took Mother Li and the others out on an excuse.
"Isn't it the time for Ninth Young Master to... enter the palace today?"
"Tell me, how did you figure it out?" Fortunately, she was smart enough. She knew how worried he was along the way.
So direct?
Chuxue poured a cup of hot tea for the other party and handed it over, "Ninth Young Master, would you also like to tell me how you know?"
"Don't be angry. I'm afraid that King Su will be unfavorable to you, so I asked Ah Qing to arrange for people to pay more attention near your shop and house..." He explained honestly.
It turns out...that's what happened. Now, it made Chuxue a little embarrassed.
Only some.
"Thank you very much, Ninth Young Master. Since Ninth Young Master is here, it's just a good time to help me take a look at this."
Chuxue took out the token and handed it to Mei Shijiu, and told her what happened last night, "...it was not cool enough early this morning. I heard that a jade bottle was stolen from the palace, but I was very frightened.
In my panic, I almost made a mistake."
"So...you knew that the other party was the King of Yue, and you blackmailed him for a thousand taels?"
Mei Shijiu took the token and asked.
Ah Qing has been petrified.
Chuxue nodded, this is not the point.
"Ahem... now tell me, why are you not afraid anymore?"
"Because that jade bottle is not the one stolen from the palace at all, but the King of Yue is really... shady. He must have known for a long time that I have some friendship with your Ninth Young Master and the Fifth Prince, so he deliberately let me see the Flying Fish Talisman.
, if I guessed his identity, I thought I might go to the Ninth Young Master or the Fifth Prince. As for his plan for this step, I haven’t thought about it in detail yet. There must be a big pitfall, so I thought about it.
I thought I'd wait until dawn to talk, but I heard the news at dawn. I panicked at first, but later I figured it out after thinking about it carefully."
"Oh, go on." Looking at Chu Xue's bright eyes, Mei Shijiu couldn't help but want to continue listening.
