The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 170
[170. Chapter 170 An accident]
That Mu Xiyao was embarrassed and was caught by Zong Zhenglin. In the end, he couldn’t save his face after making a fuss, so he had to pretend to be nothing in front of Mo Lan and deceive himself.
The two masters were working in the study, and Mama Zhao and Mo Lan had met several times. I just didn’t expect that these two masters would choose the little master to catch Zhou Yan’s empty space, just like that… they became affectionate. This thing is really embarrassing.
Besides, at this time, the sky is bright and sunny, just thinking about it like this makes people blush.
Mu Xiyao dawdled, and it took a long while to get everything sorted. The flower demon in the morning has now become a beautiful and charming person. This change in temperament finally made Zong Zhenglin nodded with satisfaction.
In order to avoid encountering people on the road, it was discovered that two people who were supposed to greet the guests in front, but hid in the backyard and went in and out. Mu Xiyao went out first than Zong Zhenglin, and sat in a soft sedan to go smoothly. Danruoyuan turned back. If there is no mistake, the fifth Yuying should have arrived long ago, but unfortunately, she met the whim of the Sixth Highness and was mistaken for the meeting promised in the letter.
Mammy Zhao and Mo Lan followed the soft sedan chair, and behind them were two maids dressed as female guards. The group walked around the corner of the garden when they were almost hit by someone who suddenly rushed out of the slash.
The two female guards reacted very quickly and stood in front of Mu Xiyao in the blink of an eye, while the little girl in ordinary dress was so frightened that she just stood there in the middle of the road, staring at them at a loss.
“Which yard are you from? Dare to rush into the side concubine, do you want your head?” Zhao mama was in a hurry. If it wasn’t for the person who carried the soft sedan in front of him being alert, and found the abnormality, he immediately stopped his pace, and also shrewdly took two steps to the side.
At the little master’s birthday banquet, if the master has three long and two shorts, it will be a bad thing to spread this thing out.
“Returning to the mother, the slave is Dan Zhu, the second-class maid in the yard of the master. I just went back to get a cloak for the master, and was knocked unconscious when passing the garden. Fang was just woken up, and was so frightened that he rushed out recklessly. I disturbed the side concubine’s sedan chair. I also asked the maid to raise your hand and let the servants go this time. Please be kind to the side concubine.”
After being reprimanded by Zhao mama, the little maid finally came back to her senses, and immediately fell to her knees in fright. Kowtow, the arms holding the cloak tightly surrounded one place, and even the shoulders were trembling violently.
Mu Xiyao opened the sedan chair, and saw that half of the clothes of the people lying on the ground were stained with mud, and the cloak in his arms and the edge of the hood had obvious stains. Looking at her eyes red, there seemed to be bloodshot on the left side of her forehead.
“You stand up and talk back, don’t be afraid.” Mu Xiyao motioned for everyone to let the little girl come over, and she saw her trembling, her head lowered, and she moved forward in small steps.
Sure enough, there are scars on the forehead, and there is already some black blue in the middle. This maid has no malicious intentions, and Yupei has been quiet so far, with no reaction at all.
“Where did you get knocked down? How long did it take you to pass out?” The
Prince’s Mansion is always going to make a fool of himself every happy event? Mu Xiyao raised her brows lightly, all kinds of mixed conjectures already started in her mind.
Today, her son catches Zhou, and it is not suitable to eat longevity noodles at a young age. If there is no cake, it is a wronged little bun, and it is unreasonable to be used by others to make trouble.
“Back to Concubine Side’s words, the slave maid was suddenly knocked on the head at the rockery not far from Mingyue Lake, and only saw a light green dress, and the rest did not see clearly.” Dan Zhu remembered the sudden stick, Now I have lingering fears, and I don’t know who I have provoked to do such a vicious thing.
“I don’t know how long it took me to pass out. I just remember taking the cloak and coming out. It’s just a moment.”
Mu Xiyao nodded, avoiding the punishment for her collision, and asked Mo Lan to lead her to the yard to wash and change into clean clothes. , treat the forehead wound well, and send the person back to An’s yard.
“You follow Mo Lan, your master will not punish you. If you feel scared about this today, you can tell your master, she will not ignore it.”
Dan Zhu With tears in her eyes, she thanked Mu Xiyao for her grace, and was led to the end, only staring at Mu Xiyao’s sedan chair with deep gratitude in her eyes.
I thought I would be scolded by the side concubine and slapped hard. But she didn’t expect to rely on the side concubine to deliver the message to the master in the end, saving her from punishment. Otherwise, it’s just the stained cloak, and even her entire net worth, she still won’t be able to get it.
The father left early in the family, and it was difficult to make a living relying on the mother to do some handicrafts. My younger brother is going to go to school now, and my mother has become ill from overwork. Not long ago, I couldn’t get out of bed, so I depended on her to work in the Prince’s Mansion. I donated a tael of silver to the family every month. difficult.
In such a tight day, if this job is lost again, or because there is no money to pay for the master’s cloak, and he is sent to the yamen, the whole family will really be forced to live.
She entered the mansion because she was picked by the big steward, and she became a contract. In the courtyard of Master An, I heard the most on weekdays, the liveliness in Danruo Garden, and Concubine Mu, who made all the masters in the backyard jealous.
In the garden, it was privately rumored that the concubine side was mean and very strict, and even the concubine Zheng dared to bully her because of her highness’s favor on the arrogant. To put it more powerfully, it was even rumored that the side concubine could do sorcery, fascinated His Highness’s mind, and won the favor of the nobles in the palace, so that she could be so beautiful and powerful in the mansion, which is invincible.
Now that I meet people, I feel ashamed and don’t even have the courage to face them directly. Sure enough, I couldn’t listen to the nonsense of others, and regarded a good person as a fierce temptress in my heart.
Mu Xiyao and his party went back to the garden, and only sat down for half a cup of tea, and then heard Ruolan hurried to report that something happened to Miss Yuying.
“What happened?” Mu Xiyao pushed away the longan and red jujube porridge served by Mo Lan, with eagerness in her voice, “How is Yuying?”
“Master, don’t worry, Miss Yuying is fine, she came with her. Another young lady was found fainted by Mingyue Lake.”
Fainted again? Mu Xiyao instinctively gave birth to vigilance. This matter may be a vengeance once, but it will never be so simple to justify it twice.
“Mommy, you bring someone over to lead Yuying and her party to the garden. What is going on, you must ask to understand. Let’s see which lady it is, she may be hurt. Be careful on the road, avoid others, don’t Make it public. Carry the soft sedan chair together, and if the girl is still awake, I’ll ask the imperial doctor to come and check her pulse.” The
person came here with the fifth Yuying as a guest, but also to wait for her. Just went to the yard to play to pass the time. If something happened like this, if you don’t give an explanation, you can’t justify it inside or outside.
Mu Xiyao stood at the door and looked anxiously. After a while, she saw the fifth Yuying frowning, followed by two ladies from aristocratic families, and at the end was the soft sedan chair that carried people. It seems that the girl may not have woken up. Just confused and inconvenient to walk.
“Mu…” The fifth Yuying saw Mu Xiyao, her brows widened immediately, as if she had finally found someone who could call the shots, and she felt at ease all of a sudden. Ben was used to the two of them calling “Sister Mu” in private, but suddenly remembered that there were other people around. It was really inappropriate to call it that, so he changed his words temporarily, and still called “Sister Mu” in a normal manner, and bowed his knees.
Mu Xiyao pulled her up, instead of joking with her as she usually did, she had a serious look, and avoided the other two salutes, only beckoning people to carefully move the girl who was lying flat to her room.
“Come into the room and talk.” He led the people to the back room and sat down, and served everyone a cup of tea to suppress the shock. Only then did Mu Xiyao walk to the soft couch and carefully look at the girl who opened her eyes but was still in panic.
