ninth junior sister

Chapter 66

The scorching sun scorched the earth in summer, the flourishing leaves were motionless, and the cicadas were chirping irritably on the trees, which made people feel a little resentful.

The gate of Prince Jing's Mansion is majestic and majestic, with triple eaves and two exquisitely carved stone lions guarding the mansion, one on the left and one on the right, which is lifelike.It's just that the gate of the mansion, which was supposed to be festooned with red lanterns, only had two guards standing next to the stone lion with knives.

"Squeak-"

Following the sound of the carriage hubs, two simple blue cloth-curtained carriages stopped in front of the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion.

After the carriage came to a complete stop, a pair of slender hands lifted the curtain of the leading carriage, and a woman dressed as a servant girl stepped out of the carriage with a skirt in her hand. After getting off the carriage, she stretched out her hand into the carriage and said softly: "Your Majesty, servant girl help you down."

"En." After the question, there was a slightly tired answer, and then a middle-aged beautiful woman in plain clothes stepped down from the carriage.

After getting out of the car, the middle-aged beautiful woman saw the deserted gate of the mansion with her beautiful eyes. She sighed slightly and said to the maid who helped her: "Tweety, let someone take all the things and help me enter the mansion." .”

Tweety nodded and replied, "Your servant obeys."

After taking all the things, a group of people walked towards Prince Jing's mansion.

When they arrived in front of the gate of Defu, the guard with the knife knelt down on one knee immediately when he saw the person coming: "The slave sees the concubine Shu, the empress is a thousand years old."

Concubine Shu lowered her eyes to look at the guards kneeling on the ground. After Xuan'er built the mansion, she should have dispatched more than a dozen guards, but Xuan'er didn't want any child except Zhui Yue. Although she knew that Xuan'er's martial arts were superb, but The mother was still worried about her children, so she transferred a few guards from her own palace to Prince Jing's mansion, and now the guards in front of the mansion are her former guards.The day before yesterday, Xuan'er asked the emperor to let him handle the wedding by himself. The emperor felt a little guilty, so he promised Xuan'er to let him handle the marriage independently.Today, when the guard learned that Xuan'er was not going to meet the bride, he notified her. Later, he heard that Ling Xiaoruo was kidnapped by a masked man, but Xuan'er ignored him. She was worried that Xuan'er would To do something extraordinary, therefore, I asked the emperor to come out of the palace.

"Where are your lords?" Concubine Shu asked the guard in a straight voice.

The guard was slightly taken aback and then replied: "In the study."

Concubine Shu let out a long sigh of relief and entered the mansion with her maid.

In the palace, there are flying corridors connecting the pavilions, and the towering Cui Wei is like a fairy palace.A group of people walked between the corridors, and arrived at the study after a while, but after arriving at the study, they heard from Zhuyue that Prince Jing had just gone to the back garden of the mansion.

Concubine Shu frowned after hearing this, then ordered people to put down their things, and called Shang Cui'er to walk towards the back garden.

It was summer, and the weather was very hot, but there was a good place to cool off in the back garden of the palace.The courtyard is deep, with towering ancient locust trees and lush greenery.Layers of light green Sophora japonica flowers cover the crown of the tree. Occasionally there is a breeze, and the ancient Sophora japonica emits bursts of elegant fragrance, which permeates the air and makes people intoxicated.

When Concubine Shu stepped into the back garden, what she saw was Yun Jingxuan in white clothes sitting under a tree playing chess alone.

At this moment, Yun Jingxuan was concentrating on looking at the chessboard, reminiscing about the routines Ziqing used during the Huashan competition every step of the way, thinking of Ziqing's playful appearance, the corners of his lips could not help but evoke a faint smile.He was so engrossed in staring at the chessboard that he didn't even notice that his concubine mother was about to reach him.

When Concubine Shu saw her leisurely and contented son, she couldn't help being a little angry. Since Xuan'er was born, she had never spoken to him loudly. However, he really made her a little angry now. Where did he put the He family? land?
"Xuan'er, what are you doing?" Because of the anger in his heart, there were inevitably many questions in his words.

Yun Jingxuan's slender fingers were holding a white chess piece that was as white as jade, when Concubine Jing Shu roared, the hand that was about to drop the chess piece froze in the air.After pausing for a moment, he quickly dropped the chess pieces, turned his eyes to look at his concubine mother, with a slight smile on his lips, as if he knew that his concubine mother was coming to Prince Jing's mansion, he just said: "Concubine mother, don't worry , the child will pay homage to her."

From his heart, he doesn't want to pay homage to her. If they don't, they will not be husband and wife, and they can marry again in the future, but is it up to him?

Why can't his marriage be decided by himself?Why?
This morning, when he had just put on the red groom's robe, the blood-red color stung his eyes, making him unable to take a step forward at all, and the cleansed heart made him completely unable to go to greet the bride.After struggling for a long time, he finally locked himself in the study.

Concubine Shu saw the pained expression of her son and the bitter smile on her lips, but it hurt in her heart. The anger that was triggered just now disappeared instantly, and she brushed her clothes and sat in Yunjingxuan. On the opposite side, he stretched out his hand to hold his hand and said guiltily: "Xuan'er, concubine mother is sorry for you."

As a mother, she can't help her son at all. She really feels ashamed.

Yun Jingxuan raised his phoenix eyes, shook back Concubine Mu's hand and comforted him: "Concubine Mu, this is the responsibility of the child, and you have nothing wrong with it. Besides, all this is from the child himself, and has nothing to do with Concubine Mu .”

What's wrong with his mother and concubine?I remember that when he was still young, he would occasionally hear the sigh of his mother and concubine. Presumably she did not marry her father voluntarily when she was young. Who among the women in the world likes to share their husbands with others?Besides, this husband is still the emperor who has countless beauties.Now, his father is even more indifferent to his mother and concubine, she must be suffering a lot in her heart.

Shangguanrou has kindness to him, and the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring. Even if it makes him have to marry a woman he doesn't like, he will never regret his actions that day.

Concubine Shu narrowed her beautiful eyes, feeling very relieved, she patted Yun Jingxuan's hand, and continued: "Xuan'er, although you don't want to marry her, she is also the concubine bestowed by your father. Her sedan chair was hijacked in the street, but why didn't you send someone to rescue her?"

Hearing this, Yun Jingxuan raised his lips and smiled lightly: "Mother Concubine, why would a woman who never likes to go out be hijacked? Moreover, when she was kidnapped, someone came to rescue her, don't you Do you think there is a deeper story behind her?"

Just now when Zhuyue told him that Ling Xiaoruo was kidnapped, although he was worried that Ling Xiaoruo would be humiliated, the identity of the man in the bronze mask was very suspicious. Therefore, in order not to startle the snake, he did not let Zhuyue go to the rescue directly, but changed After wearing night clothes and covering his face, he headed towards Suzaku Street from the back door of the palace, preparing to rescue him himself.
