Chapter 287 Collusion
Lan Xiang put the sour plum soup on the table, and then asked suspiciously: "Why?"

"This concubine is too lazy to pay attention to those flatterers. Anyone who comes to the palace must be those who have ulterior motives. It doesn't matter if I don't see you..." As he spoke, he suppressed his expression.

Hearing these words, Xuemei and Lan Xiang looked at each other, and then laughed lightly: "Master, don't worry, we know."

Sure enough, some ministers' wives and daughters came to visit in the afternoon, but Xuemei refused straight away: "I'm sorry, ladies, my master just took the medicine and fell asleep, please come back another day, ladies." .”

"Princess Yu is ill, what's the reason?" Someone asked.

Xuemei said with a serious face: "Master, because he was framed like this, he must feel wronged in his heart, so he has already suffered from depression and doesn't eat or drink all day long, that's why he's sick."

"Is it so serious? Then we'll visit again another day. These things are all for Princess Yu, and troublesome girl took them in." After speaking, the wives left the place.

But Xuemei and Lan Xiang looked at each other, and then said softly: "I didn't expect the master to be right. These ladies were still rumoring our master in the palace before. Now I heard that it was a misunderstanding. , Then they came to flatter one after another, they are really a group of villains who are blown by the wall."

Lan Xiang sighed slightly: "Who said it wasn't? It's just that this time, I don't know what happened. The good-looking Mr. Liu came to our princess's room..."

"Okay, Lan Xiang, don't discuss this matter any longer." The two said, and walked in.

"The two sisters have brought so many things, let me get some for you." After saying that, the maid named Dongyu came over.

"Dong Yu, you have been in the palace for more than half a year, why are you still in the kitchen?" Lan Xiang asked casually.

After hearing the words, Dong Yu said with a smile: "How can I compare with the two sisters? In fact, I am pretty good in the kitchen. The monthly salary of Prince Yu's Mansion is much higher than other places. Let's be servants." You should do things for the master, shouldn't you?"

Xuemei looked at Dong Yu who was talking at this time, and couldn't help laughing: "Dong Yu, you are right, as long as we can do things for the master, we slaves should naturally do the same."

Dong Yu smiled slightly, and the three walked away talking and laughing.

Ruan Xiyue looked suspicious, and said to Xuemei: "Dong Yu, who is she, and when did she enter the palace?"

"Master, it has been more than half a year since Dongyu came to the palace, but she has been working as a fire girl in the kitchen, and occasionally talks with the servants. I asked the master about his preferences before, and said that he wanted to please the master." She was suspicious. talking.

This sentence made Ruan Xiyue a little bit interested: "Really?"

"Master, the slave girl didn't think much about it at the time, but now that I think about it, I realize that there is something famous about it?" As he spoke, under Ruan Xiyue's gaze, he continued: "Also, that Dong Yu is really too sweet. It's strange, she said she wants to please the master, but she has never appeared in our yard, does this seem to be a way of please?"

Listening to Xuemei's words, Ruan Xiyue put down the grapes in her hand, and slowly opened her lips and said: "Well... Xuemei, you are right, there is indeed a problem with Dongyu, so you have to keep an eye on this People, if you have any news, let me know immediately."

"What does the master mean, is it still not possible to startle the snake?"

Ruan Xiyue let out a breath slowly, and then said softly: "Of course, if she wants to know about me, you can tell her more. I want to see it. How many minions are lurking."

At this time, Yueying had already returned from the outside, and said with a complicated expression: "Miss, I found Chu Yunxiao's trace. He came out of the East Palace last night and went to the Prince's Mansion today to meet a mysterious woman." .”

"Is there a mysterious woman in the East Palace, have you found out the identity of this woman?" Ruan Xiyue asked in a low voice.

Yueying frowned slightly, and then cupped her hands and said: "This subordinate is incompetent, this woman is masked, so I don't know her identity, but she looks extravagant in her attire."

"Who would be the woman who can live in the Prince's Mansion and wear expensive clothes?" She covered her face because she was worried that others would know her identity, or was she trying to cover up something?Thinking of this, Ruan Xiyue's expression became a bit complicated.

Seeing that Ruan Xiyue was thinking, Yue Ying continued: "Chu Yunxiao is the third prince of Chu, if he colludes with His Highness the Crown Prince, I don't know what he will do."

"You're right. I didn't expect Chu Yunxiao to collude with the prince. It really seems like something he would do." At first, Ruan Xiyue really thought about using Chu Yunxiao, but later found out that she was wrong. Such a person It's just that mud can't support the wall, so don't waste your time.

"Then master, what should we do now?" Xuemei asked suspiciously.

After pondering for a while, he let out a breath slowly: "Yueying, when the prince comes back, you tell him about this, I want to go out for a while,"

Yue Ying followed Ruan Xiyue's footsteps, and said in a low voice: "Miss, your body is inconvenient now, where are you going, it's better for your subordinates to follow you."

"Don't worry, no one dares to do anything to me compared to my martial arts." After saying that, Ruan Xiyue left.

Ruan Xiyue got out of the carriage after the carriage landed in the courtyard of Murong's house. After hearing what Ruan Xiyue said, Murong Han immediately became angry, and put the cup on the table with a snap. He said: "What a Ruan Dingtian, let's see what he taught. It was he who was with that woman from the Bai family that harmed your mother. Now his children are coming to harm you again. Who can bear it?" Intolerable."

Seeing how angry her uncle was, Ruan Xiyue let out a breath slowly, and then said seriously: "Uncle, I haven't made it public yet, and I just want to wait for the day when Ruan Shaoyang's handle falls into my hands. Won't let him go."

"This guy almost killed your elder brother, and almost killed me. Obviously, he wanted to kill us all. This made me doubt your mother's death even more. After so many years, this matter has always been a doubt in my heart." Murong Han said with serious eyes.

In fact, this is exactly what Ruan Xiyue was worried about, so she immediately raised her eyes and said, "What news does Uncle have?"

Murong Han stood up slowly and walked to the window. After pondering for a long time, he slowly opened his lips and said: "Yue'er, uncle knows that you have a deep affection for Prince Yu, but you stay in Prince Yu's mansion, uncle is worried. The people of the Ruan family will not let you go sooner or later, not to mention that you are pregnant now, why don't you just move to my general's mansion, your cousin will come back from Jiangnan soon, and at that time, you will also be with each other. Is there a caretaker?"

Ruan Xiyue smiled slightly, and couldn't help but said: "Uncle, I know you are doing it for my own good, but now is not the time to talk about it."

After hearing the words, Murong Han couldn't help frowning, and then said solemnly: "Although Ruan Dingtian is your father, after all, you are already a wife now, besides, he has been helping the prince with things all the time, and he will also help you in the future." It's you and Lord Yu's enemy, Yue'er, I hope you'll think about many things clearly."

"Uncle, don't worry, Yue'er knows." Ruan Xiyue didn't know the reason why her father did this in the previous life, but now Ruan Xiyue is also very curious about why he sided with the prince.

At this time, the guards came to report: "My lord, Mr. Wang, Minister of the Ministry of War, is here."

"Wang Zhi, what is he here for?" Amidst the suspicion, Murong Han showed some doubts.

Why did Master Shangshu of the Ministry of War come to look for uncle?This actually made Ruan Xiyue a little curious, and immediately said to Murong Han: "Uncle, since I want to talk about business, then I'd better avoid it for a while."

After that, Wang Zhi walked in, saw Murong Han, cupped his hands and said, "Oh, Mr. Murong is really very leisurely?"

"Where is it? It's not as good as Lord Wang? Recently, Lord Wang has gained the emperor's attention. I heard that the emperor rewarded him with a new house because of a great service. I haven't had time to congratulate Lord Wang!" Murong Han said.

Wang Zhi was smiling, and then let out a breath slowly, and then said: "It is said that with great power comes great responsibility. This sentence is true."

"I don't know why Mr. Wang is visiting today?" After speaking, Murong Han showed a suspicious expression.

Hearing this, Wang Zhi became serious now, and said solemnly: "Brother Murong, you and I are colleagues, so you don't have to be so polite, isn't this above the court?"

"Haha, you are talking about, you are talking about..." Murong Han also said with a smile.

At this time, Ruan Xiyue was drinking tea quietly behind the screen, and couldn't help frowning when she heard what they were talking about, only to hear Wang Zhi continue the topic just now and say: "The fourth prince is going back to the capital soon, I don't know What is Brother Murong thinking?"

"I don't want to get involved in these disputes..." Murong Han said flatly.

Four princes?Is it the prince who was born to the maid, the fourth prince who was raised by the queen?Although Ruan Xiyue had no image of this person, she had heard it mentioned by people around her.

Hearing Murong Han's words, Wang Zhi couldn't help laughing, then shook his head and said with a light smile: "Brother Murong is still the same as before, but things are already like this now, many things are beyond our control Did you choose?"

Hearing this, Murong Han frowned slightly: "Brother Wang, you mean, do you already have an idea?"
