Jiaochu

Chapter 336 Green Jade

After finishing the meal, Ye Lingxi brought a cup of tea and handed it to her father. She didn't admit her mistake, but her attitude was already obvious.

Ye Lanchen took the tea cup and took a sip.

Concubine Lan's expression relaxed, and the faint worry between her eyebrows disappeared.

When Zhu'er led Ye Lingxi back to the house, Eunuch De chased her and tried to persuade her again.

"It's good that the princess can figure it out. The emperor is also happy in his heart. From what I see, it's better for His Highness to leave the capital now to avoid being criticized. When the storm passes, the Emperor will still let His Highness come back."

Ye Lingxi nodded and hummed, paused, and asked, "When big brother leaves..." She paused again, not knowing what to ask next.

"Princess, don't think too much." Eunuch De whispered again, "Princess must not inquire about Furong in front of the emperor in the future." Ye Lingxi nodded, she still knew this point of propriety.

In the days that followed, Ye Lingxi felt like she was lazy and didn't want to go anywhere. Sometimes she would lie on the window sill and watch a butterfly flying outside for a long time, even if the butterfly flew away. I don't know, his eyes are dull and he looks dull.

Most of the time she is in a daze. When she is not in a daze, she is thinking about her eldest brother, whether her eldest brother is used to living in Qingzhou, whether he eats well, sleeps well, is in a good mood...

Instead of thinking about her eldest brother, she would think about Su Wan, whether he was doing well these days, what to do in the future, and whether the marriage with her eldest brother could be successful...

Instead of thinking about Su Wan, she started thinking about Su Shi, wondering whether the other party would ignore her like last time...

Instead of thinking about Su Shi, she started thinking about Fu Rong and who was instigating him.

After pondering over it, Ye Lingxi felt that his laziness was getting worse. He was too lazy to move, too lazy to talk to people, and even his appetite seemed to have decreased.

Hehe and Lingdang were worried about this and tried every means to coax her to go out to play. With their unremitting efforts, Ye Lingxi finally walked out of the house.

"Princess, you see the weather is so nice, let's go for a walk outside."

"Yes, the princess can't stay bored in the house all the time. She might get sick easily."

"Don't say such unlucky words, the princess can get sick so easily."

"Bah, bah, bah, the princess is in good health and will live a long life~"

The two of them talked to each other and coaxed the people out.

As soon as he entered the Imperial Garden, Ye Lingxi felt his eyes light up. His eyes fell on the bright red pomegranate flower in front of him. It was as if he had seen it for the first time. He had a fresh feeling of "I don't know the taste of meat in March". It has been a long time since I came here. I went to the garden and almost forgot what the pomegranate flowers looked like.

Hehe and Lingdang saw this and pulled people over to see the flowers.

The red pomegranate flowers are delicate and delicate, but the fragrance they exude is very light, seemingly absent, and there seems to be a little sweetness in the fragrance, like the smell of pollen.

Ye Lingxi looked at the bright red flowers in front of her, feeling a little lost in thought.

Lingdang saw a big butterfly flying behind the tree. She walked over with a handkerchief and prepared to swat the butterfly. The next moment she hurried back and said, "Princess, the imperial concubine is here." Ye Lingxi raised her hand to Zingdang. She looked in the direction she was pointing and her eyes fell on the woman in green dress next to Concubine Xiao. She had seen her before. She had followed Concubine Xiao to deliver bird's nests to her mother. She was a maid in the Xiao Mansion and liked to wear green. He was named Green Jade.

"You have served the house for many years and have done things in a measured manner. However, I still want to remind you of some things." Concubine Xiao said. Luyu replied respectfully: "My queen, please speak."

Concubine Xiao said: "The most important thing when working in the palace is to behave yourself. Don't always dream of reaching the sky in one step. There was a little maid in my palace before. She dared to seduce the emperor under my nose because of her beauty. , do you think such a person should die?"

Green Jade replied: "Damn it."

Concubine Xiao nodded with satisfaction. She saw someone under the pomegranate tree in front of her. When she saw it was Ye Lingxi, she acted as if she hadn't seen him. "Let's go for a stroll over there." Lu Yu replied, and helped Concubine Xiao to the other side. The direction went.

Ye Lingxi looked back, and her intuition told her that this green jade was difficult to deal with.

"I heard that the imperial concubine chose a maid from home to serve in the palace. It turned out to be that girl." Ye Lingxi turned his head and saw Jingzhe pushing Murong Ze over. Murong Ze chuckled with a trace of amusement, " The princess is finally willing to show up. I can't even sleep without seeing the princess these days."

"That must be a mistake." Ye Lingxi turned around to look at the flowers and pointed the back of his head at the person. Jingzhe pushed Murongze over to look at the flowers. She walked behind the tree to look at the flowers. Hehe and Lingdang also followed. They seemed to be playing hide and seek.

"Princess, does she know that Miss Su is not in the capital?" Murong Ze said.

Ye Lingxi said: "It's good to go somewhere else to relax." He didn't ask where he was going, but he just didn't take the bait.

Murong Ze said: "The princess doesn't want to know where the person has gone."

Ye Lingxi asked, "Does Brother Murong know?"

Murong Ze said: "If the princess wants to know, I can tell her."

Ye Lingxi didn't speak. She didn't want to go around in circles with the other party. She just said what she wanted to say and didn't want to push her down. She would just ask someone else to find out.

Murong Ze stopped beating around the bush and said, "Miss Su went to Yuzhou. I heard that Mr. Gu came to pick her up in person. There is one more thing. I don't know if the princess is interested."

Ye Lingxi remained silent.

Murong Ze said: "That Furong girl committed suicide."

Hearing the last three words, Ye Lingxi's reaction was very dull, or she didn't know how to react, and she couldn't even say she was surprised. She expected that there would be such a result, either suicide or death, and she couldn't even say she was sad. She and the other party were neither relatives nor friends, and they had not spoken a few words in total, and there was no mention of anger. The person was dead, so what else could she pursue...but she felt a little empty in her heart, as if a gust of wind had blown by for no reason. , it seems that something was taken away without taking anything away, which makes people feel a bit at a loss.

"I really don't know whether the princess is brave or hard-hearted." Murong Ze said playfully.

Ye Lingxi frowned and left with He He and Bell without saying hello. When she met Ye Lingjue on the road, she turned around and walked away. Her hurried back looked like she was deliberately avoiding him. She thought that her eldest brother's matter was closely related to Concubine Xiao, and she even thought that mother and son were conspiring together. Ye Lingjue also guessed the reason and did not catch up to explain. He just stopped where he was for a while and took Dong Mo to the imperial study room.

After arriving at the imperial study, Eunuch De diligently led Ye Lingjue in while Dong Mo waited outside.

Prime Minister Zhou and Yan Jiang were also there.
