But now, a princess with a different surname who had been deprived of her title was able to rise to the top of the empress dowager and the imperial concubine's aunt.
But she was left alone in this deep courtyard and was not allowed to be summoned.
"And that spiritual girl, she said she wanted to help me, but where is she now? She disappeared without a trace after a visit to the Shen Mansion. She really is a mother if she has breasts."
She is not a fool and knows that the spirit girl must be with the Queen Mother.
But now that the spirit girl no longer helps her, is this what the Queen Mother means?
She was unwilling, aggrieved, and angry, burning like an endless fire. She rushed around the room, smashing everything she could.
"What happened?"
Outside the door, Mrs. Hu pushed open the door and walked in, followed by Lu Xiyun, whom she hadn't seen for many days.
Lu Xiyun followed Mrs. Hu and stepped in, unable to help but be startled.
Inside the house, the brazier was overturned to the ground, and the unburned charcoal fire inside was thrown out. Little scarlet fires flickered on and off.
On the ground at the door, a pair of large decorative vases were smashed to pieces, and the pieces were scattered everywhere.
One of the bottles has only one bottom left, and the broken openings around it are high and low, like a big mouth with broken teeth. When people look at it, their hearts will be inexplicably startled.
"Hanyu, what are you doing, what are you doing?"
Mrs. Hu knew that her daughter was suffering, but she still couldn't bear to blame her. She waved her hand and asked the servants to go into the house and tidy up.
The servants lowered their heads and hurriedly cleaned up the room in silence.
These days, this kind of scene happens every day.
Once the second young lady feels unhappy, she starts to beat things up. Beating things up is better.
But if a servant offends the second young lady, a beating is inevitable and the skin and flesh will be bruised.
After the servants finished cleaning up and exited the house, Mrs. Hu said:
"Hanyu, girl Xiyun is here to see you."
Hu Hanyu finally came back to his senses and looked at Lu Xiyun.
"Xiyun, why are you here?"
She smiled, put away the evil look in her eyes, and stepped forward to take Lu Xiyun's hand affectionately.
Lu Xiyun's hands felt a little cold, and her heart trembled.
This Hu Mansion has become increasingly weird since the deaths of Da Sima and Mr. Hu.
The people here are becoming more and more gloomy, just like Hu Hanyu at this time, his whole temperament is very different from before.
She wanted to withdraw her hand, but when she thought of her sister's advice, she silently encouraged herself in her heart.
"Today is the anniversary of my mother's death. I don't want to see those people pretending to be in the house, so I thought I would come to the house to talk to you."
On the side, Mrs. Hu was still a little skeptical, but now after hearing what Lu Xiyun said, she remembered that today is really the death anniversary of Princess Xian'an.
"Good boy, I really feel sorry for you. Sit down quickly."
"Hanyu, please ask Xiyun to sit down quickly."
Hu Hanyu also reacted and pulled Lu Xiyun to sit down.
She thought to herself, it turned out that she was not the only one who was driven crazy, Lu Xiyun was not living a comfortable life either.
When she thought that Lu Xiyun was not feeling well, she felt a little more comfortable.
But after all, I still have some concerns.
"Since today is your mother's death anniversary, what about your sister? Isn't she staying with you at home?"
Lu Xiyun was still thinking about how to tell her sister's story, but now that she asked her this question, she didn't have to think of anything on her own.
"My sister was kept in the palace by the Queen Mother. She said the Queen Mother wanted her to do something?"
Hu Hanyu's brows jumped and he glanced at his mother beside him.
Mrs. Hu said nothing, but a dark light flashed across her eyes, and her hand holding the teacup tightened unconsciously.
"Working? Why do you need to stay in the palace to do something?"
Lu Xiyun didn't seem to be happy about this matter, shaking her head and saying:
"My sister didn't go into details. She just said that once this matter is settled tonight, she will get what she wants in this life."
"Get what you want?"
Hu Hanyu pondered the meaning of this sentence.
The Queen Mother brought Lu Mingxin back to the capital. It was said that she wanted to send her to the Ninth Prince. And Lu Mingxin had indeed been in love with the Ninth Prince. Could it be that what happened tomorrow night was also for this?
At the thought of this possibility, Hu Hanyu's face suddenly stiffened.
"Hanyu, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Xiyun saw that her face was uncertain.
"Oh, nothing? Mother."
Hu Hanyu looked at his mother.
"Didn't mother choose an ornament for cousin Zhao Wang at the Zhenbao Pavilion last time? Why don't you send someone over to ask my cousin to come over?"
When Mrs. Hu heard this, she was startled for a moment, and then nodded suddenly.
"Yes, yes, I have been prepared for a long time. I am just waiting for His Highness King Zhao to return to Beijing from Jicheng."
With that said, he stood up and left the house.
As soon as Lu Xiyun heard about King Zhao, her heart suddenly went crazy and she was at a loss.
Hu Hanyu glanced sideways at her expression, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, but there was a gloomy and treacherous look in that smile.
——
Back at the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Xiao Mingxuan and Luo Jiuli got off the carriage and saw the housekeeper coming to greet them.
"Your Majesty, Second Miss, Commander Luo is here."
"My eldest brother?"
When Luo Jiuli heard that his elder brother was coming, he turned to look at Xiao Mingxuan.
"My eldest brother is here, isn't it because of Shen Miaoqing's affairs?"
"no."
Huh?
Luo Jiuli raised his eyebrows:
"How does the prince know it's not the case?"
Xiao Mingxuan took her hand.
"You'll know if you go in and ask."
With that said, he took her into the house.
Nuan Pavilion of Jiuwangfu.
Luo Yuanliang stood up when he heard the sound outside the door.
When the door curtain was raised, he saw that the person who came into the room was his little sister, followed by the Ninth Prince, and then Nan Xing, Nan Zhu, Qin Yin, Mo Han, and several secret guards dressed in black.
They are all top players.
Seeing this posture, Luo Yuanliang sighed in his heart.
The Ninth Prince was afraid that he was protecting his little sister as a pendant. He followed him every day, even when he went back to the house. There was a row of secret guards behind him, lest something might happen to the little sister.
With this level of dedication, no one from the top to the bottom of their government could achieve this level.
"Brother."
Luo Jiuli entered the room and was a little confused when she saw her elder brother's sour and complicated expression.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Luo Yuanliang waved his hands hurriedly.
"It's okay, it's okay, nothing happened."
Xiao Mingxuan glanced at Luo Yuanliang and pulled Luo Jiuli to sit on a chair.
Outside the door, a servant served scented tea.
"Can anyone see it?"
Luo Yuanliang nodded.
"I saw it, and the prince's words were conveyed to him, but -"
Xiao Mingxuan picked up the scented tea and took a sip.
"explain."
"yes."
Luo Yuanliang said:
"But the fifth princess likes the new and hates the old. Ever since she and Prince Zhao... cough."
He coughed to relieve his embarrassment.
"No problem."
Xiao Mingxuan put down the tea cup.
The goal has been achieved, and the rest is not a big deal in his eyes.
