Chapter 379 Accountability

The noise outside was really disturbing, Mu Xiyao covered herself with a quilt, and moved her body further into the dormitory. In a daze, he couldn't bear to ask who was taking the maid outside, as if two groups of people were confronting each other, the sound of footsteps getting closer.

"Prince Concubine, Lady Liangdi has not gotten up yet, please allow this old slave to go in and make a report." Zhao Nanny half turned to block people, but did not dare to stand in front of Helian Minmin in a daze, and committed the following offense.

Pushing the people away, Helian Minmin strode into the inner room, walked around Jinping and saw the woman on the bed sleeping soundly, curled up with her head covered, as if she felt that they were bothering her she.

Holding his breath in his heart, Helian was so angry that he pointed at Mu Xiyao's fingers and couldn't help trembling slightly.

"This is the rule that you should have as the lord of the first palace! The hour is too early, and you can't get up!" Such a big event happened in the palace. In the East Palace, even several talented people from Changxin Palace rushed to her Yuzhao Palace to wait information. Only she, the dignified prince Liang Di, was half gone.

The originally peaceful inner room was disturbed by the woman's loud reprimand. Hearing the words, the person on the bed stretched out his small hands, and slowly turned around while holding the quilt. It was so easy for her to show her head, and everyone in the room looked at her at this moment, and they all shook their heads unconsciously.

The half-closed eyes of the woman on the couch were misty, and her hibiscus face was flushed like powder. He yawned with his mouth slightly open, propped himself up crookedly, his loose hair slipped down, revealing a round shoulder and a small half of Shuang Saixue's arm on his body that was only in a pocket coat. It really has a coquettish attitude of "fragrant shoulders, tired, charming and speechless".

The most embarrassing thing is the side of the woman's neck, how many fragrant flowers bloom on the snow-white skin.

Zhao mama had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and hurried forward to grab the brocade quilt for her, and helped her to half sit up and lean on the head of the bed. Helian Minmin's body swayed involuntarily behind him, her eyes were full of marks on her body. So lingering and coquettish, what else can I do, it's nothing more than staying when I'm happy with a man...

He actually treated her like this.

In Helian Minmin's memory, when Zong Zhenglin came to her room a long time ago, that man had never loved her so much. Even to do things, they all ended hastily with great efforts.

Her throat was very tight, and the fingers under the sleeves trembled slightly. Thinking about the unsolved disasters of the previous dynasty, I felt that the woman I saw in front of me was a huge disaster.

Finally sober. Mu Xiyao looked around the couch and there were so many people, not only blocking the sun she enjoyed so much when she got up every day, but even the air around her seemed suffocated. The reluctance that was already there became more and more surging.

"Why did the Crown Princess forcibly break into the concubine's inner room?" As soon as she heard this, Hui Lan knew that the master was angry.

Right now, I don't have the heart to sort out respect and disrespect with her. If he hadn't asked her something, Helian Minmin didn't want to stay for a long time. In this room, she didn't want to set foot in the next half step.

"I'm just asking you, the Wan family took care of that tree, but you did it?"

This woman... waved her hand to tell the people below to retreat, Mu Xiyao hugged the brocade quilt, and stared at her deeply.

"It's really you!" Sitting down on the grand teacher's chair, Helian Minmin's eyes darkened. Judging by the candid look in her eyes, there is nothing to blame.

While stroking his chest to let the air flow, Helian Minmin looked bleak, and his eyes fell blankly on the laurel placed on the table beside him.

"You really love flowers." The last time I entered Zong Zhenglin's study, and looked at the changed decorations, it must have been done by her.

"In today's court, there is something ominous about His Royal Highness Yushi Canzuo's succession to the princes. And the source of that is that you, Mu Xiyao, caused the banyan tree leaves to fall! Apart from that," he seemed to be really afraid, Helian Minmin's expression was extremely complicated. "The 700-year-old tung hemp tree in the imperial garden was also found to have withered and yellowed its branches and leaves overnight, and it seems that it will not survive."

Helian Minmin's voice trembled, but Mu Xiyao couldn't understand the anxiety in her heart at all. The woman is now blinking her eyes, wondering which tung hemp tree is in the imperial garden, which has such a long history, and she has never seen it in person?

Seeing her obviously distracted, Helian Minmin was full of frustration. Why did Donggong recruit such a person, disaster, disaster!

"When the branches and leaves are withered and yellow, I ask the craftsmen in the garden to take care of them. For this matter, how can I compete with the position of the crown prince." She said that she used a trick to make the banyan tree break the branches and leaves. But he admitted it. The banyan tree is indeed one of the "five flowers and six trees" in Buddhism. Buddhists believe that planting this tree can prosper the family business, bless the descendants, and accumulate merit. In this sense, the falling leaves of the banyan tree do not have a good meaning.

But the Laoshizi Tongma tree can be seen at any alley in Shengjing. No matter how common it is, it has nothing to do with good or bad luck.

As expected, the censors of all dynasties have one or two people who are not open-eyed and looking for trouble.

"You! You are so angry to death!" Helian Minmin's anger was interrupted by the mark, but now he couldn't help it. Is this woman pretending to be mean, or she really doesn't know?

After being married to Zongzheng Lin for almost three years, the Crown Princess finally coincided with His Highness the Crown Prince once, and had the same understanding of Mu Xiyao as a woman.

So angry? Impressed by the bulging veins on He Lian Minmin's forehead, Mu Xiyao's half-lazy mind finally became more diligent. It's really no wonder that when she first woke up, Zong Zhenglin usually caught her and bullied her. On the contrary, before this woman had been cultivated for a long time, she probably didn't want to use her brain, and simply followed him to the end.

Tong Mashu itself is not very surprising, it can have a special meaning, nothing more than being imposed by others. The tree is seven hundred years old... Putting away her legs and feet, pressing her chin on the brocade quilt, and resting it on her lap, Mu Xiyao's mind started to spin.

Helian Minmin saw that she really didn't know how rare this tree was, and was about to speak, but saw the woman change her posture, but after a while, those eyes, which made her especially jealous, became bright and sparkling.

"In the last years of Great Wei Kangdi's reign, what shocked the court most was the abolition of the crown prince?"

It's really a good brain. Wei Shi can read well. Sneering flashed in her eyes, Mu Xiyao simply crossed her legs and stared at Helian Minmin thoughtfully.

"Since the Crown Princess knows that His Highness is in danger, what are you doing instead of staring ahead and inquiring about the news carefully?" He Lianshi, if not for Zongzheng Lin's residence in the last life, he didn't see a capable person. The Queen's position, She would never even think about it.

Helian Minmin looked a little stunned when she asked her a word. "Tian Fushan will send the message."

"After all, the chief manager is in the East Palace, and he is usually in charge of the general affairs of the house. How much can the person be sent?" Relying on Tian Fushan to pass the words, and then she relayed the words, Mu Xiyao felt that this matter is no better than a blind man feeling an elephant. where to go.

"Instead of thinking about finding a concubine and incriminating him, why doesn't the Crown Princess make people turn around. Even if Concubine Shu can't do it in the palace, Lord Helian can always count on her."

This woman sent a letter to Helian's house before if she had something to do. Things are going very wrong right now, she just leaves Helian's family alone and messes around in her Huiyi Palace.

Being questioned by her, Helian Minmin couldn't help but stand up suddenly, knowing that she was too frightened and out of proportion. Reluctantly catching her wrong, the Crown Princess said harshly, "I will order someone to watch it. You can't escape the banyan tree! If there is a mistake in His Royal Highness, I will definitely order you to take care of me!" Compensation!" After the words fell, he led the people out of the yard aggressively, only to see Mu Xiyao opened her eyes and sighed at her figure.

Under shame and annoyance, the owner of the backyard of the East Palace is also quite capable of venting anger.

"Your Majesty, you should be careful of your feet." Supporting Helian, Mother Feng felt that the master wished for the wind to blow under his feet.

"There is no delay. Can you hear what she said? Hurry up and order someone to do it!" At this moment, he calmed down, Helian Minmin was extremely unwilling, but he couldn't lie to himself no matter what. When she came to Mu's Palace, firstly, she was angry and questioned the crime to relieve her anxiety; secondly,... secretly, she hoped that she could come up with some ideas to help Zong Zhenglin get through this calamity.

When the accident happened, the first thing that came to mind was her, Helian Minmin was extremely annoyed, but had to admit it aggrievedly.

The Crown Princess made a move, and Mu Xiyao was not idle here. There was no disturbance from others in the room, and she was finally able to think at ease.

Emperor Kang's abolition of the crown prince was more than half the same as today's incident. But at the time of Emperor Kangdi, an ant colony suddenly appeared on that tree, and the trunk was densely packed with climbing ants, which vaguely spelled out the four-character script of "Venus transiting the sun". Before contacting the secret report, the prince was actually unwilling to be a minister, Emperor Kang was furious, and issued an edict to abolish the crown prince on the same day.

Seven hundred years ago, the warning from heaven was recorded in the historical records. Unanimously praised Emperor Kangdi for his wisdom, and for God's protection against the rebellious party. And that tree is also very solemn and peaceful.

Brushing her temples, Mu Xiyao lifted the brocade quilt and put on the embroidered shoes. She doesn't know whether Zong Zhenglin will rebel against her in the future, but at this moment, her master and son have not yet launched a plan, but he has been designed to kill the king, so she has to follow and become a member of the rebellious party?

You haven't had enough days for Shu Xin, so you want to pick her head off? The favorite concubine is not enough, she absolutely does not want to be criticized by others as a traitor concubine.

Seven hundred years ago, an old tree survived many winds and rains to survive today. How could the mouth wither overnight? It's impossible to treat her as a fool. It's a pity that the theory of ghosts and gods in the Great Wei Dynasty is still prevalent. Otherwise, the temple Lingshan would not be so sought after by the world.

There is a ghost in this matter, and Emperor Yuan Cheng is afraid that he knows it clearly. But without clarification for a day, even the emperor will never be able to fight against the will of heaven. The name "Son of Heaven" is not a joke. What's more, the old man didn't have any intention of taking the school exam in his heart towards Zong Zhenglin. To carry the heavy responsibility of the country, extraordinary people can take it.

"Hui Lan!" She raised her voice to call the servant girl into the room, put the changing and washing up later, and only told her to quickly summon Qiang San to come over. "Go and get the broken banknotes, I'll need them later."

Above the court hall, Zong Zhenglin coldly took everyone's expressions into his eyes. Very well, there are people who are timid and fearful, and there is no shortage of people who are secretly happy. The rest of the people who cared about him were all confidantes. To his surprise, it was He Lianzhang and Su Bowen who stood respectfully with their heads slightly lowered without changing their faces.

What the crown prince doesn't know is that the behavior of these two people is not due to their loyalty to him, but they are all thinking secretly: this matter can have something to do with bonsai, and the banyan tree was given to the queen mother by the Mu family idea. Yi Mushi used to be a school, very shrewd and cunning. Could it be that this matter was baited by the Eastern Palace, intending to eradicate the alien party?

By mistake, Mu Yaonv was counted as the prince's arm by a few scheming people in the court. In this way, several people are not in a hurry or panic.
