Chapter 271 Warm Night

"Who told her to do it!" Wan Jingwen's meridians protruded on the back of her hand, and her nails were so tightly clasped that the front part turned white. "A dog is so cowardly and a lowly maidservant that he betrayed his master! How long can he survive now that he has fallen into His Highness's hands!"

Zhu Jin's forehead drooped, and her fingers stuck to her legs tightly pinched the hem of her skirt, trembling with fear.

"Master, there is news from the palace that a nameplate made of black pottery from the Western Jin Dynasty was found under the kang in Yue'e's room." This incident was too horrifying. When she heard about it on the first day of the lunar new year, she was so frightened that she broke out in cold sweat.

"What!" Wan Jingwen turned pale with shock, her eyes were full of horror. "How is it possible, how could she be a spy from the Western Jin Dynasty!"

How old was she when she was rescued from the Wei River! Eight years old, only eight years old!

Wan Jingwen's complexion turned pale, and she felt that things in this life were too complicated, far beyond her control. Due to her previous life, she has private connections with both Jins.

If Yue'e herself came from the Western Jin Dynasty... whose subordinate is she? Can she reveal her secret?

Also shocked by this incident was Zong Zhenglin who was hastily recruited into the palace by Emperor Yuan Cheng.

"Father, although the nameplate in my son's hand is also made of black pottery, the content on it is quite different from the eight presented before. Whether it is the sequence name or the rank, it is not from the same line. My son Doubt that the two groups of people belong to different factions in the Western Jin Dynasty."

If this is the case, this incident of love fragrance and the empress dowager's fainting may be just an extremely rare coincidence. And the person behind the drug is not what he thought before, he is going for Mu Xiyao.

Across the wet water, this situation was set up thousands of miles away, and it was designed by him. Western Jin Dynasty... Zong Zhenglin's eyes were as cold as ice.

"Father, my son, I'm afraid that there are people in the Western Jin Dynasty secretly colluding with Mobei." At this time, he rashly ordered, and he did not hesitate to use the spies buried deep in Concubine Shu's palace. Zheng Lin didn't think otherwise.

Emperor Yuan Cheng's face turned somber because of the empress dowager's waking up, and became gloomy again. A spy from the Western Jin Dynasty actually sneaked into the imperial city, and concealed his name in the palace. He hid in the palace for more than seven years... It's been too long since there was blood in the palace. I'm afraid someone forgot. If you stretch out your hand under his nose, you can't live without a broken arm .

"Gu Changde, Xuanji Huai'an is here to see you. You will also step down first." Swiping away the princes and ministers in the hall, Emperor Yuan Cheng took out the roster from the desk and remained silent for a long time.

In Concubine Shu's palace, Zong Zhenglin sat solemnly, with a faint look on his face.

"Are you still paying attention to me! You can't hide the matter of Yue'e from the emperor, so why don't you let me know in advance!"

After all, that lowly maid came from her palace, she didn't know who she was, even if Emperor Yuan Cheng punished her, she would have nothing to say.

"Even if mother and concubine feel at ease, the emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of this matter. What's more, the servant girl was also appointed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs." In less than two days, the front and rear palaces will undergo major changes.

"When my son retired, my father summoned Ji Huaian's imperial study to speak."

The conversation between the mother and the son, just a few sentences, revealed a message that scared Concubine Shu's face into a big change.

Zong Zhenglin stretched out his hand to pat the snow on the cloak, his eyes were far away, and his steps were steady. The guard Zhen Gongjin followed, two steps away.

"Sixth Brother." Zong Zhengming took his entourage and waited under the eaves of the Qinghe Palace. When he met someone, he greeted him from a distance.

Zong Zhenglin swept across the satin of his court boots that had been discolored by the falling snow. Meifeng twitched.

"Fifth Brother has been waiting here for a long time?"

"It took about half an hour, but I have something to discuss with you."

The two looked at each other and walked out of the palace side by side.

In the mansion in the east of the city, Mu Xiyao held the scroll, stretched her neck and glanced at her eyes, frowning. "Is it snowing a lot outside?"

Zhao Nanny laughed secretly, hurriedly tied up her needlework, and approached to answer. "Master, the snow has fallen on the ground outside, and when you step on it, the uppers of your shoes are gone. The road is wet and slippery. I think Ye Kai has to be careful when driving, even at night. You are weak and can't wait for a long time. Even if His Highness knows that you are waiting like this, he always feels distressed. Why don't I serve you a bowl of fresh duck soup first, how about warming your stomach?"

After getting up in the afternoon, he was full of energy and ordered more than ten dishes, all of which were his favorite dishes. He said that he wanted to make up his body with His Highness at night, so he didn't have to work hard, and it was too hard to go out early and return late in the wind and snow outside.

It's not yet the time of You, His Highness has not yet returned to the residence, the master is full of gluttons, but he is thinking about eating, so he asked about it five or six times in different ways.

Being exposed by others, Mu Xiyao did not change her face, and cleared her throat calmly, "There is no rush, we still have to wait until His Highness returns to the residence, so we can have dinner together." Although the little mouth is very greedy, it can't be called Read the joke. Fortunately, I used dim sum before, so my stomach is not hungry.

His Royal Highness Six had a bad temper, and when he didn't say he would go home for dinner, he dared not take him seriously, and he was greedy by himself, and he should call her "little heartless", scolding is inevitable.

"The concubine just sits and waits, it's good that His Highness feels distressed." Turning the pages of the book, Mu Xiyao muttered in a low voice.

"Master, isn't your Highness distressed enough for treating you like this?" Mo Lan sent the young master back to the house, and heard the master complaining in a low voice after returning.

"Your Royal Highness is cold and quiet, so serious a person, how can he hurt others." Being teased by the maid, Mu Xiyao held up the book and covered her face. This is so embarrassing...

Speaking of which, Master Boss actually has gentle moments. It's a pity that when it comes to loving others, the one who likes to work hard on the bed is the most. Most of the time, the rest either lectured her or caught her to take advantage of her. What he hates the most is copying books for punishment, and Mu Xiyao hates seeing "Girls' Regulations" the most.

"Usually, it really doesn't hurt people very much." The tone was angrily, and he turned another page.

"How can Jiaojiao be satisfied?" There was a shadow over her head, and the scroll was easily pulled out by the man's slender fingers.

"..." Why didn't she hear Mo Lan's resignation?

Mu Xiyao lightly gritted her white teeth, raised her head, and looked at the person watery. "Your Highness, I have been waiting for you for a long time. I am so hungry that I have started to sing." He grabbed his other hand and rubbed it randomly on his lower abdomen through the quilt. "Touch it, it's dry and dry, Very poor."

The corners of Zong Zhenglin's mouth curled up, and a smile appeared in his eyes. Such a precious look!

Just touching her fingertips like this, she also knew that her belly was slightly swollen, which showed how many snacks this woman was greedy for. You have the cheek to yell and eat in front of him, among the noble daughters of the aristocratic family, I am afraid that this is the only one who does not know how to grow crooked.

"Set the meal." It really made her starve, but it was him who felt sorry for her.

After removing the coat, she saw the woman's eyes lit up, she smiled and called the servant girl, she cleaned her face and hands, threw the soft pillow aside, she didn't see her sitting upright, instead she opened her arms to him, calling people over and over again.

"Sit on His Highness's lap, it's warmer than a plush cushion." He played with his fingers mischievously, as if urging him not to keep her waiting too long.

His Highness the Sixth Highness washed and washed properly, and then hugged her in his arms, as expected, he hugged her together like this, fed her food spoon by spoon, and let her eat in her mouth and look into the bowl. Greed is not enough, and it is extremely appropriate to use it on Mu Xiyao at this time.

"Your Highness, the Butterfly Shrimp Crackers are delicious, and the sauced elbow is also good."

Nanny Zhao and Huilan were guarding the outside room, the earth dragon was burned in the room, and the candlesticks seemed to warm up a bit with the radiance. When Shengjing was the coldest, the main courtyard of the mansion was harmonious and harmonious. From time to time, the concubine inside could be heard cheering and calling the names of the dishes, occasionally mixed with the low voice of His Highness reprimanding. Even if people are stopped from eating more, they are also kind.
