Queen's New Clothes

Chapter 125
Earlier, Wei Jichang was playing chess with Han Boyan, the son of Wenyuange University Scholars' Mansion, Wei Yan did not participate.

When the palace man said this, it happened that Su Zhi, the second master of the Su family, was beside him.

Su Zhi frowned slightly when he heard this, and looked at the palace maid.

Wei Yan put the teacup in his hand on the vermilion lacquer coffee table, with a solemn expression, he said, "What's going on?"

The palace man lowered his head and said: "It seems that a servant girl did not hold the tea steady and accidentally spilled it on Madam..."

Wei Yan stood up and said, "Is it serious?"

The palace man stammered, "The villain is not here to serve, I don't know, the son should go and see for himself."

Wei Feng immediately walked out of Xinyan Tower.

Su Zhi was worried about his younger sister Su Xi, and wanted to follow him, but the palace guard stopped him, a bit embarrassed: "Second Master Su, Pengying Hall is the sleeping hall of the harem, I'm afraid it's not convenient for you to go in..."

Su Zhi had to stop.Hearing the noise, Wei Yan turned around and saw Su Zhi standing a few steps away. He was concerned about Su Xi's situation, but he didn't exchange greetings with Su Zhi. He just said, "Second Brother Su is here first." Wait, I'll go and see how you are doing."

Su Zhi nodded, paused, and said, "Take good care of you."

Pengying Hall is next to Zhaoyang Hall, some distance from Xinyan Tower.Wei Yan was fairly familiar with this section of the road, passing through a long corridor, not far ahead was the gate of Pengying Hall.

Looking from a distance, the gate of the palace is closed tightly, and there is no one outside the vermilion lacquer hollow Linghua gate.At this moment, the female relatives are all in the imperial garden. When Wei Feng just came, he saw the empress empress leading a group of female relatives to enjoy the flowers, so it is not surprising that there is no one here.He asked the palace man behind him, "Have you gone to ask the imperial physician?"

The palace man's footsteps faltered slightly, because he was walking behind Wei Feng, thankfully Wei Feng didn't see his abnormality. "I've already gone to ask for it, and the imperial doctor will come over in a while."

Wei Feng nodded and said no more.

Soon, he walked to the door, raised his hand to knock on the door, and called "Youyou".

No one answered inside, but footsteps were heard.It's like a maid is constantly busy.

Without hesitation, Wei Yan pushed the door open and entered.

On the other side, Su Xi waited for a long time but did not wait for Fu Yi to come back.The tea on her ivory-white horse-face skirt had dried up, leaving patches of brownish-yellow tea marks, crumpled and very unattractive.Her embroidered shoes were also splashed wet just now, and they haven't dried yet.

Su Xi loves to be clean, but also has a bit of a cleanliness habit. She keeps everything neat and tidy on weekdays, so she can't stand being so sloppy right now.She frowned and shook the Wuyi tea leaves on the horse face skirt, feeling sticky and uncomfortable all over her body.She asked Ting Yan, "Has Fu Yi not come back yet? It's been so long."

Ting Yan went to the side to get a clean towel, dipped it in water, and wiped the tea stains on her skirt first, and said: "Miss, don't worry, this servant will go outside to have a look, you wait here for a while a little while."

Su Xi nodded, took the towel from Ting Yan's hand, and said, "I'll wipe it myself, you go and see what's going on."

Hearing Yan say hello, he stood up and walked outside.

According to the rules of the palace, carriages outside are not allowed to enter the harem, there is a special place for parking carriages in front.If Fu Yi went back to get the clothes, he should have gone to the place where the carriage was parked.After listening to the wild goose asking the way, he walked over there, left the Zhaoyang Hall, and saw two people standing at the end of the road.

One is Wei Yuan, the eldest son of King Yu, and the other is Li Yan, the eldest son of the Marquis of Luyang.

The two stood facing each other.

Because of the distance, I couldn't hear what they were saying.Ting Yan adhered to the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, so she didn't come forward, and her girl was still waiting for her to take back the clothes to change, so she didn't dare to delay, so she walked over a long way.

On the other side, Wei Yuan looked at Li Yan on the opposite side, with dark eyes, glanced at Li Yan's sleeve intentionally or unintentionally, and said with deep meaning: "Just now, after finishing the arrow competition, Mr. Li left. Can't you take it all?"

Li Yan's body was straight, and his emotions were well controlled without any ups and downs.His right hand hidden in the sleeve tightened.Wei Yuan's bodyguards hit him hard, scratched his arm the night before, leaving a gash more than three inches long, which hasn't healed yet.And because he pulled the bow too hard just now, the wound was ruptured, and the blood continued to flow down his arm. Fortunately, he was wearing dark clothes today, even if he was soaked in blood, he couldn't see it.

Li Yan said: "Prince Yu thought too much, Li just went to change clothes."

It has to be said that Li Yan was so calm that even Wei Yuan was almost fooled by him.

Wei Yuan smiled lowly, the smile didn't reach his eyes, like the snow in the twelfth lunar month of winter, illuminated by the moonlight at night, emitting a white light.He said: "Oh, I'm really thinking too much? When I have time later, how about Mr. Li and my archery competition?"

Li Yan hesitated slightly, then nodded for a while, and said hello. "If there is nothing wrong with Prince Yu's son, Li will resign."

As he spoke, he wanted to walk past Wei Yuan.

On the other side, they were trying out their arrow skills, and someone suddenly missed the shot, and the silvery shoulder flew towards this side.A faint light flashed in Wei Yuan's eyes, without warning, he grabbed Li Yan's right arm, took him aside, and said, "Mr. Li, be careful."

The place Wei Yuan pinched happened to be Li Yan's wound, and the force was not light, and he pressed hard on his bleeding place.

Li Yan's face turned pale, he clenched his teeth, and suppressed the blurted cry.

The arrow landed a few steps behind Li Yan, even if he didn't hide just now, it would definitely not hit him.

The archer over there came to pick up the arrows and apologized to Li Yan and Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan still pinched Li Yan's arm, didn't let go, but tightened it even more, but with a thin smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Li, are you okay? Why doesn't your face look very good?"

A low and hoarse roar escaped from the depths of Li Yan's throat.When it was close to his mouth, he swallowed it back.His right arm was so numb with pain that he could barely feel it.There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and he was speechless for a while.

Although it's spring now, it's cold and cold, and it's definitely not to the point of sweating.

Wei Yuan noticed that his palms were wet, his complexion was heavy, and there were dark clouds in the depths of his eyes, as if a violent storm was hiding.

The two faced each other like this, neither of them moved.Until Li Yan stepped back, his voice was hoarse and a little weak, and said: "Li is fine, thank you Prince Yu for your concern, and leave." He pulled out his wrist and walked to the other side.

After Li Yan left, Wei Yuan lowered his eyes, spread out his palms, and glanced at his palms.

Hands were scarlet and bloodstained.

His right hand was injured, and Chun Lie happened to stay in the capital for a few days, and his stature was almost the same as what Chen Qin saw that night.Wei Yuan slowly closed his palms together, making his fists cluck.In order to confirm his guess, he asked Chen Qin to investigate quickly. On the day Fu Yi went to Daci Temple to offer incense, Li Yan happened to be out of the house.

In addition, before Fu Yi married into Prince Yu's Mansion, Luyang Marquis Mansion had proposed marriage to Duke Qing's Mansion, but Duke Qing's Mansion did not nod.

This incident did not destroy the relationship between the two families. The Li family and the Fu family are still cousins ​​and have a good relationship.

Li Yan and Fu Yi are close cousins, and they grew up together, so there is no need to talk about the relationship here.

The veins on the back of Wei Yuan's hands were exposed, and his face was ugly.

... This pair of obscene men and women!After he has a solid foundation, he will definitely not be cheap for the two of them!
If Fu Yi hadn't said that there was a way to help him deal with Wei Feng, he would never have kept her until now.

I just don't know if Fu Yi has succeeded?Just now I saw a palace servant calling Wei Feng, so it must be almost the same.But Wei Yan is such a foolish person, in order to regenerate midway, Wei Yuan turned around and went to Pengying Hall, intending to go and see for himself.

Zhaoyang Hall.Su Xi sat and waited, not only did Fu Yi not come back, even Ting Yan didn't know where she went.

She pursed her lips, and suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, as if something was about to happen.She was holding her skirt by the hem, and was about to go outside regardless of the tea stains on the skirt, when Ting Yan came back from outside and said to her, "Miss."

Su Xi asked, "How's it going, have you seen Fu Yi?"

Ting Yan shook his head and said: "My maidservant searched around, but did not see Mrs. Yu Wang Shizi. I also asked the palace servants near the stables, and they all said that Mrs. Yu Wang Shizi had not been there."

Su Xi's eyebrows were slightly tight.Didn't Fu Yi say to go back to the carriage to get clothes?If she hadn't been to the stables, where had she been?Su Xi suddenly had a bad feeling, Fu Yi lied to herself to stay here for so long, what's the point?She didn't care to think about it, hurried out of Zhaoyang Hall, and asked the maid outside the hall: "Where did Mrs. Cai Yu Wang Shizi go?"

The maid pointed in a direction.Su Xi hurriedly walked towards it. Not far ahead was the Fengying Hall, which was completely opposite to the stables. Why did Fu Yi go there?
A palace maid in pink came across from the verandah, she was taken aback when she saw Su Xi, and then gave a soft "Huh".

Su Xi didn't care about her, so she heard her muttering: "Isn't Mrs. Jin Wangshizi in Pengying Hall?"

Su Xi stopped abruptly, turned to look at her, "What did you say?"

The palace maid bowed her knees and saluted her, and said respectfully: "Return to madam, I just heard that you were scalded and you are resting in Pengying Hall. The son of Prince Jin went to see you."

When Su Xi heard this, her face turned pale.Finally understood Fu Yi's intention.She was so anxious that she led the skirt and hurried towards Pengying Hall.

Wei Yan won't really go to see her, will he?Is Fu Yi also in Pengying Palace?What does she want to do to Wei Yan?
Whatever it is, it's definitely not a good thing.While Su Xi was anxious, she annoyed Fu Yi so much that her teeth itch. Only then did she suddenly realize that it was not an accident that she was given hot tea just now, but Fu Yi did it on purpose.She is so bold, she actually dared to make these moths in the court...

In front is the Pengying Hall, and there are no maids outside the hall, but Su Xi is even more startled.She almost trotted to the front, and listened to the geese calling constantly behind her, telling her to be careful of the child, but she couldn't care so much. When she came to the front, she suddenly pushed open the Linghua door——
