Chapter 231 Deceived, Being Played Like a Monkey

Xin Ruo grinned when she heard that, "Xie Yuan's mother."

As he spoke, he leaned over to the turnip flower and sniffed it lightly. He didn't stand up until he felt his nose itchy.

Sure enough, there are masters in the mansion who know the medicinal properties of turnip flowers very well.

It seems that what Zhan Moyu heard in the early years and the licorice that he ate had something to do with Mrs. Fu. He didn't expect to get so much useful news today.

Mama Yuan led Xin Ruo up the steps, when she heard Mrs. Fu's angry and violent voice from inside the room, "How many times have I told you that you are not allowed to make clothes for him, haven't you heard?!"

Xin Ruo frowned when she heard this, and Mama Yuan said outside, "Madam, Second Young Mistress is here to greet you."

After Yuan's mother finished speaking, she invited Xin Ruo in, and Xin Ruo entered the room as if she hadn't heard Mrs. Fu's words.

Glancing at Mrs. Six, she was wiping away tears, and smiled faintly when she saw Xin Ruofu. Xin Ruofu greeted Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Six.

Mrs. Fu was sipping tea, and asked worriedly, "I heard that today you went to Nanchan Temple to encounter an assassin, but you were injured. I was going to visit you, but you came unexpectedly, Yu'er I'm afraid I'm worried."

Xin Ruo blessed her body slightly, and replied respectfully and politely, "Thank you for your concern, old lady, Xin Ruo and mother concubine are fine, just thinking that I haven't come to greet old lady, Xin Ruo feels a little sorry, and I hope old lady Forgive me."

After hearing this, Mrs. Fu stretched out her hand to greet Xin Ruo.

Xin Ruo hurriedly stepped forward, Mrs. Fu patted Xin Ruo's hand and said, "No problem, you are usually busy taking care of Yu'er, as long as you take good care of Yu'er, it doesn't matter whether you greet my old man or not." .”

Xin Ruo was grateful when she heard it, and the sixth wife was also helping, and Xin Ruo sat in the room chatting with them.

After a long while, Mrs. Fu said regretfully, "That kid Yu'er is so clever, I really like him from the bottom of my heart, how could he go to the palace as a servant and end up... I have been away for a long time, and I don't know what happened to his legs?"

As soon as Mrs. Fu said, Xin Ruo wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and said with a sob, "I'm afraid that Xianggong's legs can only be like this. Today, my mother and concubine still ask me, and I don't know how to answer.

It is said that the boss of Banyuefang has excellent medical skills, and he was specially invited to have a look. He only said that my husband's leg was twisted by someone, and I am afraid it will be difficult in this life..."

After speaking, Xin Ruo couldn't continue, and covered her eyes with a handkerchief.

Zilan watched from the side, blinking her eyes, how did the young mistress cry, and she didn't see her use chili water, it must be really sad.

Thinking about it, Zilan's face also suffocated, the young master's legs are obviously on the mend, so many people in the Piansheng Mansion wish him to sit in a wheelchair forever.

If these people are not cleaned up, staying there will always make people panic.

Today alone, they met assassins three times. If they hadn't known in advance that there were people protecting them in the dark, their legs would not be so frightened.

Xin Ruo was sobbing, Mrs. Fu blamed herself to comfort her, and Mrs. Six also comforted her, and it took a long time to stop.

Xin Ruo choked and said, "Xin Ruo dared to shed two tears in front of you and put them in the concubine's room. Xin Ruo didn't dare. The concubine who has nothing to provoke is even more sad."

As she said that, she squeezed out a bleak smile, as if she had no hope for Zhan Moyu's legs.

After Xin Ruo finished speaking, she took a deep breath, wiped her eyes with a veil, blinked a few more times, and chatted a few more words as if nothing had happened just now.

There was a melodious sound of jingling bells outside, and Xin Ruo glanced over, and it was Mo Liuxia.

She entered the room gracefully, first greeted Mrs. Fu, then Mrs. Six, and then went around to greet Xin Ruo, with an innocent look.

"The second sister-in-law is here too. I haven't seen the second sister-in-law for a few days. Yesterday I heard that the second sister-in-law was going to offer incense at Nanchan Temple. She wanted to follow her, but my mother didn't allow me to get in the way. Fortunately, I just heard that the assassin frightened me, is Second Sister-in-law alright?"

Xin Ruo shook his head, and Mo Liuxia sat next to Xin Ruo, his eyes wide open, "I heard that Master Hui Hai invited his second sister-in-law here today, and even gave her a second painting, is it true? of?"

Xin Ruo was startled when she heard this, and the corner of her mouth curled slightly. It seems that there is really no news in Wang Hao's room.

When the princess looked at the scroll in her hand and asked, only Xinlian was by her side, and the rest of the people only knew that she had entered Nanchan Temple, but they didn't know where the scroll came from.

Xin Ruo nodded, and Mo Liuxia's eyes widened with excitement, "Master Huihai is an eminent monk, so the painting must be unusual, can Second Sister-in-law lend me a look?"

Xin Ruo glanced at the room out of the corner of her eyes, Mrs. Fu sipped her tea and said nothing, but Mrs. Six gave her a look.

"Nonsense, I know that what Master Hui Hai gave is not an ordinary thing, how can I show it to you casually, what if it breaks?"

Mo Liuxia pouted, and Xin Ruo shook his head, "Aunt Six is ​​serious, it's just a painting, Xiangzheng is holding a copy, and when the painting looks like a scroll, ask him to give Liu a copy that is exactly the same. That's it for summer."

Mo Liuxia grinned and nodded repeatedly when he heard that, seeing Mrs. Six glaring at her, she turned her head and gave her a nasty look, yelling that Xin Ruo must not forget.

Xin Ruo smiled lightly, sat for a while, and then brought Zilan back to Jiangzixuan.

In the study, Lan Bing was talking to Zhan Moyu about the assassination, Xin Ruo was also listening, the prince also intervened, and even reported the matter directly to the Ministry of Punishment.

Zhan Moyu rubbed his forehead thinking, but Xin Ruo simply told Zhan Moyu what happened in the princess's room.

Zhan Moyu is the son of the concubine, so he should know that the concubine mother has endured it for 20 years, "My husband, the concubine mother does not allow us to investigate, what should we do?"

Zhan Moyu didn't expect that the princess knew who was going to kill her, and directly said that they were not allowed to investigate, let alone that there were so many things behind it.

Zhan Moyu casually picked up the token on the table, flipped it left and right, and a flirtatious smile flashed across the corner of his mouth.

"If the mother and concubine don't let me, I won't check it. You can check it secretly. Later, I will send this token to my father, and let my father check it. He may not believe it when we find it out. Only he can find it out by himself. He can't help but not believe it. "

Zhan Moyu thought about it, and took Xin Ruo to the prince's study. The prince was alone in the study, holding a picture scroll in his hand, not knowing what to think.

Zhan Moyu, the boy at the door, made Lan Bing faint and threw him away. Seeing Zhan Moyu pushing the wheelchair in, the prince hurriedly put away the scroll, thinking of hiding.

Seeing Zhan Moyu pouted and angry, he stopped the movement of his hands, put down the scroll in his hand, walked over to the desk, and asked, "Why is Yu'er here?"

Zhan Moyu ignored him, pushed the wheelchair forward, took the scroll curiously and unfolded it.

Xin Ruo pouted, the prince was ready to hide, and he looked at it openly, if the pouting prince didn't give it, it would be tricky, which made the prince stand there awkwardly.

Xin Ruo thought that he could do this, but when he saw the person on the scroll, Xin Ruo was stunned.

It was a young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with tulle covering her face, holding a broken snow lotus in her hand, no ornaments on her head, only a hairpin, isn't it a Zhilan bead!

Xin Ruo leaned forward, and saw the word Xin written on the corner of the tulle.

Xin Ruo twitched the corners of her mouth. It seemed that the name of the imperial concubine was Wen Yunxin. Is this the princess?

Just as he was thinking, Zhan Moyu opened his eyes and looked at the prince, "You see the portrait of the concubine, why don't you show it to me?"

The prince was even more embarrassed when he heard it, "This...isn't your concubine mother, Yu'er is good, can you give the painting to the prince?"

Zhan Moyu raised his nose, "Why not, this hairpin belongs to my concubine! My lady, take it out and compare it."

The prince was stunned when he heard that, Xin Ruo took out the hairpin, the prince glanced at it, and then carefully looked at the scroll, "Do you really think this portrait is like your mother and concubine?"

The corners of Xin Ruo's mouth twitched when he heard this, even those with long eyes thought it was okay.

It's just that the imperial concubine looks sixty to seven points like the concubine, so this portrait naturally looks like her. The hairpin is undoubtedly the concubine's, but what is the explanation for the word "Xin" on the tulle?

Who painted this portrait? If you have good eyesight, you can see the words embroidered on the tulle, but you can't see the person under the veil?

"This painting is the concubine mother." Zhan Moyu made a final decision, finished the scroll in two or three strokes, and handed it to the prince, "If you don't believe me, go ask concubine mother."

The prince took the scroll, with a slight hesitation on his face, he casually put the scroll on the desk, and asked Zhan Moyu, "Yu'er seldom comes to father's study, what's the matter today?"

Only then did Zhan Moyu take out the token from his sleeve, "This is the token that the secret guard found at the assassination site today, and it may be related to the assassination."

The prince accepted the token suspiciously, his eyes froze, but Zhan Moyu didn't give him a chance to speak, and directly took out the unique arrow from the back of the wheelchair.

"It wasn't just the two teams that were assassinated, it was the third team that shot, and almost killed the lady and the concubine mother, and the concubine mother didn't allow us to investigate."

The prince took the arrow and looked at it, his expression became even more serious. Isn't this the arrow specially used by the team of hidden guards that disappeared back then?

There were three hidden guards in his father's hands back then, the main part was given to him, a small part was given to Yu'er, and the other one disappeared. He searched for many years but couldn't find it. Who did his father give it to?
Seeing the prince staring at the arrow, Zhan Moyu was in a daze, frowned slightly, and looked at Xin Ruo, Xin Ruo was also surprised, the prince seemed to know and didn't know, so he heard Zhan Moyu ask, "Father, this arrow?"

The prince stretched out his hand to touch Zhan Moyu's head, "Wherever you go in the future, bring a few more hidden guards with you, the person who assassinated your mother and concubine is probably someone from the palace, this arrow is exclusively for your grandfather's hidden guards.

It's been a few years since you disappeared, obediently listen to your mother and concubine, your father will investigate this matter. "

Only then did Zhan Moyu nod, and pushed the wheelchair out of the study room. The boy who was thrown away looked at Zhan Moyu and leaned against the corner.

Xin Ruo was surprised by the reaction of Zhan Moyu and the prince, Zhan Moyu was also lost in thought, the palace is really not safe.

The hidden guard that disappeared back then had a lot of people, 44 of them. After these years of development, I don’t know how it has grown. Who did my grandfather give it to, why didn’t anyone mention it?
