red wheel

Chapter 167
Night, a small building.

However, when the sound fell, Prince Gong's hand holding the wine glass was clenched for an instant, and he looked at Xiao Jinxi with scrutiny and guard in his eyes!

Xiao Jinxi smiled slightly, and looked at Prince Gong without hesitation!
Prince Yu and Mo Yi at the side also looked at the two of them, thinking.

After a while, Mo Yi said: "Brother Ten, tonight is a family reunion, so if Brother Ten has any difficulties, why not tell me, maybe Eleven and Xi'er can also help."

I only heard Xiao Jinxi say again: "Brother Ten, Jinxi was very grateful when I heard my grandmother talk about the help of sister Deyue when she entered the palace, and my grandmother was also grateful for it. I don't know why sister Yue chose to bring her young children Going to the Yuyuan, but it has been many years since this incident, sister Yue has been living in the Yuyuan, and she will appear here tonight, so she must have something difficult in her heart."

"Back then, Mo Yi's mother and concubine died of illness, and Mo Yi was also suspicious about it. After many years of inquiring, he found out that the death of Concubine Li was artificial. That's why Mo Yi just returned to Tianqi, and he only wanted to find out the truth of the year. .”

"Brother Ten, it's easy for everyone to do it alone, but it's hard to do it alone. Tonight, Brother Ten will invite me to the banquet through Mo Yi. He must also believe in Grandma, just like he believes in Fourth Brother, right?"

After a long time, Prince Yu said: "Old Ten, after so many years, fourth brother is very clear about your thoughts. The love affair in those years left you alone until now. Every time I see it, I can't bear it, but you don't say it, fourth brother It’s not easy to mention.”

At this moment, in the dark room, a beautiful figure trembled instantly, and a tear flowed down instantly... Yes, how many years have passed, and the prince is still alone, alone!

At this moment, the teahouse fell into a quiet...

After a long time, the wall behind Prince Gong was instantly opened, and a woman in plain clothes stood at the opening of the dark room. The woman was quiet and elegant, with a pale complexion, and her elegant temperament could not be concealed even in plain clothes. This person was Ren'an Empress Dowager Liu Yue.

When Murong An saw it, he immediately got up and walked forward, with joy in his eyes, and after a while, he said: "Yue'er, go and sit together, okay?"

Liu Yue smiled, nodded and replied, "Okay."

They reached out one by one to hold the man's hand, and walked out of the secret room together. Murong An looked at the hand that was caught, and there was unexpected joy in his eyes for an instant...

Seeing the two people approaching, the three people at the wine table also stood up.

Xiao Jinxi smiled, bowed and saluted, "Hi sister Yue, Jinxi is being polite."

Mo Yi also bowed and saluted: "I met Sister Yue on Eleven."

Liu Yue nodded and smiled, and bowed in return: "Eleventh, brother and sister."

Turning around one by one, walking towards Prince Yu, bowing again and calling out: "Fourth brother."

Prince Yu was taken aback when he heard the address, then smiled, nodded and said: "Okay, sister, let's sit together."

Murong An smiled when he heard the words, pulled the woman to sit down together, picked up the hand stove from the side and put it in the woman's hand one by one, and said again: "Yue'er is not well, it's getting cold tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was taken aback for a moment, looked at Xiao Jinxi and said, "It turns out that the brothers and sisters only knew about it when they saw this hand stove."

Then he wondered, "But how are you sure it's Yue'er?"

Xiao Jinxi smiled lightly, and replied: "To be honest with Brother Ten, I already knew that Brother Ten had people spying on the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion before, and later Jin Xi secretly investigated and learned that Brother Ten sent a gift to Yuyuan. There were speculations in my mind.”

"Zuixianju's plum wine is quite famous in the imperial capital, and Jin Xi has also tasted it."

"But tonight's plum wine is very different from Zuixianju's. Tonight's plum wine is more fragrant and mellow. Even the jug that holds the wine has a different level of refinement. I think this plum wine should be from brother ten. My sister brewed it herself."

"And on this side of the wine rack, there are so many plum wines, but only this pot is unsealed. The wine specially brewed by Shige for Sister Yue is naturally for Sister Yue. Sister Suwen Yue is weak. , and with this hand stove, Jin Xi dared to guess that sister Yue came to a small building."

Murong An smiled instantly when he heard the words: "Everyone knows that Miss Xiao of the Marquis of Wu'an is talented, intelligent, and a woman with eyebrows. She is the number one beauty and the number one talented woman in my Tianqi Dynasty. Brother Ten can be considered to have seen it today."

Xiao Jinxi smiled and replied, "Brother Ten is absurd."

Liu Yue on the side listened quietly, but she was extremely shocked... The prince knows that he likes plum wine, so every year the prince will send plum wine to the imperial garden, but she doesn't know that the plum wine is actually made by the prince himself Brewed for her.

"Ha...ha..." Prince Yu on the side smiled instantly, and said, "Okay, since we've talked about it today, we don't have any worries about each other from now on."

"Back then Concubine Li was ill. The purpose of returning to Tianqi this time on Eleventh is also to find out what happened back then. Old Ten, why don't you also talk about what happened back then. Why did the sister retreat to the Royal Garden with her two children?"

Hearing this, Murong An turned to look at Liu Yue with questioning in his eyes.

Liu Yue smiled slightly and said, "Fourth Brother, let me do the talking."

Turning her head to look at Murong An again, she said, "My lord, I want to drink another glass of plum wine tonight."

Murong An smiled when he heard the words, took the jug from the side, and poured a glass: "Yue'er, here it is."

Liu Yue took the plum wine and tasted it carefully, with joy in her eyes... Before, she only knew that this plum wine was delicious, but tonight I will know why this plum wine is so delicious!

After a while, Liu Yue spoke slowly: "The Liu family was quite famous among the great Confucians in Tianqi back then, and Emperor Qianxing specially ordered all the princes to come to Liu's residence to study. It was also that year, when the red plum blossoms in winter fell in the snow. Under the tree, I met the prince." At this moment, Liu Yue's eyes flashed with the joy of the first love...

After a while, the voice suddenly changed, showing helplessness: "However, a year later, Emperor Qianxing suddenly issued an imperial decree to Liu's mansion, making Liu Yue, the daughter of the Liu family, the crown princess. I only found out through my father later, it turned out that It was the prince who went to ask the Holy One for a marriage."

At this moment, Liu Yue smiled wryly: "At that time, the prince and I were already in love, and my father and mother knew about our affairs. The prince originally planned to propose marriage to my father again on the day I was born, but this imperial decree came down. After all this, the Liu family's poetry and rites are heirs, and the matter between me and the prince, how can I tell the outside world."

"That year, I finally married the prince and became the princess. Since then, I put away my thoughts and dared not have delusional thoughts anymore. In order to avoid suspicion, I did not dare to have any contact with the prince."

"Later, I entered the palace and became a queen, but the intrigues and intrigues in the harem have never been my specialty, so I try my best to stay in the Yikun Palace only to accompany the children."

At this moment, there was pain in Liu Yue's eyes: "But Jun'er died of illness in the third year of Zongyuan. I was exhausted physically and mentally, and my health was deteriorating, so I seldom paid attention to the affairs of the palace."

"Most of the matters in the harem are taken care of by the late second prince's biological mother, Wang Guifei. But in the ninth year of Zongyuan, I got pregnant again unexpectedly. At that time, my mother came to the palace to see me, but told me that I was in the middle palace, how many people were there?" I'm jealous, and now I'm pregnant again, I still have to be careful, after all, the eldest son of the emperor died young."

At this moment, there was pain in Liu Yue's eyes: "At that time, I was also scared. Since then, I have been cautious in every step of my diet and daily life. When my mother entered the palace for more than five months, she brought a doctor to see me. But after seeing the doctor, the doctor said that I have been poisoned by a strange poison."
