The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 378 Incense

Xie Ruzhuo hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, "My daughter-in-law dare not **** good things from the mother and concubine, but the prince will scold me when I turn around."

As soon as she said this, Ye Guifei smiled and cursed, "You are a capable person. You have said it. Is there any courtesy in this palace? The palace sees that you are not afraid that Xi'er will scold you, but you want to take it when the time comes. Stop my words."

"No, my daughter-in-law just thought, if I don't receive this fragrance, wouldn't I be able to come to my mother and concubine to smell it every day? Maybe I will get this fragrance on my body when I go out."

Xie Ruzhuo's words were joking, and Ye Guifei was also amused by her, rubbing her belly and said, "Look at this leather monkey, but your abacus won't work. If you don't smoke for an hour or two, you won't be able to carry that smell. Child's."

Having said this, Concubine Ye Gui said again, "But then again, are the good things in this palace reserved for juniors? Okay, you don’t have to say those polite words. I will let them later. Take it, you and Wang Qi’s wife, each one has a box, so there is always nothing to say, right?"

Murong Wan hurriedly smiled, "Thank you for your mother and concubine, but the daughter-in-law dare not ask for it. The three younger siblings are pregnant, so they should all have the first share, so let's give her all."

"Look, here is another one who can be a good person, and the one in this palace is thankless. Don't refuse, just keep it."

After Ye Guifei said this, the two naturally smiled and thanked them, but as to whether they were really happy or fake flattery, they couldn't tell.

At this time, someone from the palace came to ask for peace, saying that it was the Ministry of Internal Affairs who came to report the affairs.

Upon seeing this, Murong Wan made a few polite remarks, and then she got up and smiled, "The mother and concubine are busy here, and the daughter-in-law knows that she can't help, so she won't bother the mother and the concubine, and the daughter-in-law retires."

Hearing this, Ye Guifei nodded and smiled, "Alright, go."

Murong Wan didn't stay too much, bowed and left.

Before leaving, Ye Guifei did not forget to give her the incense, and by the way Xie Ruzhuo's share was also collected by the maid.

After Murong Wan had left, Ye Guifei accepted her smile and said, "Zuo'er, you don't have to mention incense again, but do you have any plans?"

That's right, Xie Ruzhuo had already asked the same thing before Murong Wan came, and Concubine Ye Gui also told her at that time. But after Murong Wan came, Xie Ruzhuo asked again, obviously not the same purpose as the first time.

It's just that what this girl wants to do, but Ye Gui concubine can't see through.

Xie Ruzhuo smiled slightly and said with a narrow expression, "Prince the prince also said that my daughter-in-law was pregnant for three years, but now that I think about it, I'm probably starting to make a fool of myself."

She obviously didn't want to say this. Seeing her like this, Concubine Ye Gui had to sigh and said, "No matter, this palace is going to be busy at the moment, you also go back and rest a while."

After hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo smiled and retired.

Only the concubine Ye Gui behind her kept looking at her leaving back, thoughtfully.

Xiao Junhan was ordered by Emperor Jing to think behind closed doors at home these few days. It is naturally impossible for him not to go out, but it is a fact that he cannot get in touch with current government affairs.

It was not until dusk that he went home from the outside, and his face was covered with clouds.

After returning, Xiao Junhan shut himself in the study. After receiving the news, Murong Wan thought for a while, ordered someone to stew the soup, took the incense that Ye Guifei gave in the morning, and walked towards the study.

At the end of March, it was getting dark and it was a little late. The setting sun in the evening has not yet completely receded, and the bluestone slab that has been exposed to the sun for a day also has a little more residual heat.

Murong Wan wandered all the way, and when she arrived at the study, she saw a servant guarding her, as if she was a gatekeeper.

Seeing Murong Wan, the servant said with a smile, "Wang Hao, the prince said he wants to be quiet, do you want to go back first?"

Murong Wan's face became stiff, and even though Xuan returned to her smile, she said softly, "The prince hasn't eaten dinner yet, you can go in and pass it through."

Seeing Murong Wan's words so polite, the waiter couldn't refute her face, so she smiled slightly, owed her body, and went in to report.

After a while, the waiter re-emerged and said respectfully, "The princess, please come in."

Murong Wan nodded as a response, took the food box from the maid, tidied the skirt and walked in.

The light in the room was a bit dim, and there was a man sitting in front of the desk, and the setting sun did not shine on his face, making him a bit gloomy.

Murong Wan saluted and walked to him, Xiao Junhan's expression was a little better, and she forced a smile and said, "This king is not hungry, and you don't have to worry too much."

Hearing this, Murong Wan walked to him and said softly, "What the prince is saying, the husband is the wife, and the prince is not hungry, and the concubine must think of you.

Xiao Junhan's words are very useful, and I feel ashamed of this wife. What's more, what he experienced today is a deep feeling that there is no one available right now, and Murong Wan is one of his life-saving straws.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xiao Junhan grabbed her hand and held it in his own. Although he still looked sad, he didn't say a word.

He didn't say anything, Murong Wan wanted to ask more, and then cautiously asked, "Master, what happened?"

Xiao Junhan was silent for a while, before opening the mouth in Murong Wan's cautious eyes, "Since my father ordered this king to think at home, the ministers who previously supported this king have hesitated and retreated. worry......"

He didn't say the next thing, and Murong Wan already understood it.

The alienation of ministers will directly cause Xiao Junhan to be deaf and blind; on the contrary, Xiao Junxi will be more and more smooth. Looking at the now clear situation, Murong Wan is sure that within a month, there will be imperial edicts passed down in the middle of the DPRK.

At that time, it is truly irretrievable.

If Xiao Junhan could safely be a prince with a fief, it wouldn't hurt him. After all, Xiao Junxi was not the kind of person who crueled his brothers and feet, and if he went to the fief, he would be able to live a stable life.

Unfortunately for Xiao Junhan, if there is no throne, he would rather die.

After trying to understand these joints, Murong Wan felt a little trembling in her hands and feet. Even though she was once a princess, it was only once.

She is not the only princess in the Great Food Nation. Now that she is married, the distant country can't give her more help.

What Jingdi decides will not change because she is a princess of a neighboring country.

It's just that Murong Wan couldn't say this, because she held his hand and said, "The prince must not be discouraged. It is not yet the last moment, and the outcome is still unknown!"

The tone of her speech was very determined, not so much as comforting, but as cheering.

Encourage Xiao Junhan and cheer yourself up.

After all, she is now married to Xiao Junhan, and all the bets are placed on the other side. So she couldn't find any other way besides trusting each other.

Xiao Junhan just shook her hand and sighed for a while, "Maybe. Wan'er, this king is not reconciled, you know what."

He called Murongwan's boudoir name, which made Murongwan feel a bit empathetic, and instead shook his hand. "Master, the concubine is on your side. The current predicament is nothing, as long as we can win in the end. That's enough."

"It's not easy."

Xiao Junhan let out a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and leaned back in the chair, his expression a little gloomy.

Upon seeing this, Murong Wan remembered the box of incense, walked to the incense niche and lit it, and a quiet fragrance spread in the room instantly.

Xiao Junhan heard it, and the restless heart was soothed a lot. I opened my eyes and saw that she was lighting incense, because she asked, "What incense is this?"

Murong Wan softly replied, saying, "Today, I went to greet the noble concubine. It was given by the empress and said it was a tribute from the Western Regions. It has the effect of calming the nerves. The concubine thought that she would never use it, so she brought it to the prince."

Hearing this, Xiao Junhan felt a little uncomfortable, but remembering that Murong Wan could please Concubine Ye Gui, but Shen Jingci had gone, but her expression was cold every time, and her feelings in her heart were also divided.

Seeing that Xiao Junhan was in a better mood, Murong Wan took out the tonic soup from the lunch box again, holding a bowl of soup in her hands, and said, "Master, would you like some soup? This is made by the concubine herself."

Xiao Junhan naturally wouldn't refuse. He took a sip and said with a smile, "Wan'er's craftsmanship is still good."

Murong Wan smiled softly and said, "The concubine can do nothing but spend more time on the husband's diet and daily life."

When she said that, Xiao Junhan's eyes became softer as she looked at her.

The two people in this room are deeply affectionate, but in the Ciyuan not far away, it is a group of miserable storms.

Shimo knelt on the ground with a sorrowful expression, "The servant is incompetent and can't even find a decent meal for you. But master, you have to eat a little too. If you don't eat it, your body can't stand it. living."

Shen Jingci lay on the bed, her pale face covered with haze, and she sneered, "What is the food for you? Others don't want me to live in peace. Naturally, there are ways. What can you do with them as a little maid? You too? No need to persuade, I just have to eat."

With that said, she struggled to sit up from the bed and poured the cold porridge that Shi Mo had handed down. The process was so fast and urgent that she choked for a long time after drinking.

Seeing her like this, Shi Mo was too busy to take over the bowl and caress her back, but his hand was quietly kneading towards a few big holes.

Xie Ruzhuo was uncomfortable when he drank the porridge, but now he feels dizzy and struggling to hold his strength, a little uncomfortable, "Simo, you said, why is he so cold?"

I had long thought that Xiao Junhan would dismiss the abandoned son, but when she showed that she did not meet his requirements, Xiao Junhan could be so unrelenting!

What's even more hateful is that Murong Wan's true facts are clever. She was embarrassed everywhere, but under the banner of Xiao Junhan, she made her argument indisputable.

Shi Mo lowered his eyes behind her, and also covered the light in his eyes, and said softly, "Master, slave and maidservant have heard some news, and I don't know if it should be said."

"Say it."

Shen Jing sighed and saw that she was still a little hesitant when she turned around, and then said, "When I am now like this, you are the only one who is willing to be by my side. The love between the two of us has long surpassed the master and servant. We are relatives. The same exists. So just say what you want to say, I won't blame you."

She believed that she had tasted the warmth and warmth of humanity, and it was good for Shi Mo, and Shen Jingci was always willing to win over her servants, so after she had finished speaking, she saw a touch of emotion on Shi Mo's face without surprise.
