056: Questioning
The old princess was beaten, how could she bypass Nangong Yu and immediately pulled her son's hand to complain: "Tian'er, when your father was alive, he never let his mother suffer a slight grievance. You have been a filial and good child since you were a child. Your mother is very pleased, but now your princess has just passed the door and asked someone to beat her mother. If this matter is spread, how can my mother meet in the future? Nangong Yu confuses the crowd and instigates his subordinates to beat his mother-in-law. This matter must not be stopped."
Situ Qingtian looked at Nangong Yu and asked coldly: "What do you have to say?" His tone was full of reprimand.
Nangong Yu lowered his head and rolled his eyes wide, and said cowardly: "Prince, I really saw something unclean in my mother just now. I didn't believe in such strange things that are so powerful that I was confused before, but I only believed it if I experienced it once." She didn't know whether there are ghosts and gods in the world. Most of the sayings of ghosts and gods are just living people pretending to be gods. Just like what the old princess experienced today was designed by her, but without evidence, others would believe it.
But some things are indeed difficult to explain clearly, just like her rebirth. If she had not experienced them personally, she would not believe them.
So she insisted on seeing it, and Situ Qingtian had no choice but to do anything to her.
"Tian'er, don't listen to her nonsense. The royal family is the most taboo to say that strange power is a mess. Nangong Yu pretended to be a ghost as soon as he entered the Yu Prince's Mansion. It was obviously a bad intention. If this matter was passed on to the palace, the emperor would definitely punish our Prince's Mansion for a sin of confusing the public." The old princess said the matter seriously, and wanted to distract their feelings and never let them have a husband-and-wife relationship.
Nangong Yu would not show weakness like he did in his previous life and continued to defend himself: "Mother, did you feel weak and weak just now, wanting to speak but unable to speak, your body trembles, your heartbeats faster, and you are even being controlled?"
The old princess looked stunned and looked at Nangong Yu with a pig-headed face. If it weren't for her eyes swollen into a crack, Nangong Yu would have been sure that she could see the old princess's terrified and nervous eyes. It's a pity that her eyes were beaten too hard and she couldn't see it, but it doesn't matter, there are more opportunities in the future.
Seeing this, Situ Qingtian glared at Nangong Yu in displeasure and said, "There is nothing wrong with the princess here, let's go back to Jinglanyuan first!"
Nangong Yuying was full of body: "Yes!" He went out obediently, but a smile appeared in his eyes. It was obvious that the old princess's heart had been shaken. As long as he worked harder, the goal could be achieved, but there was no rush to do so.
After Nangong Yu went out, the old princess looked at her son and said, "Tian'er, do you think your father is really back?"
"Mother, don't listen to Nangong Yu's nonsense. It must be because she is in poor health and has hallucinations." Situ Qingtian comforted her mother.
The old princess shook her head: "No, I think your father is back, he must be blaming me! In the past two days in Wangling, he asked me to dream of him, saying that he was not doing well there, and the people who harmed him are still at large. He even secretly found a wizard to bribe evil ghosts and murder him. Your father was killed by Nangong Yu's grandfather, but now you have married the granddaughter of your enemy. How can your father not blame me?
Tian'er, you must avenge your father as soon as possible. Never fall in love with Nangong Yu, so that your father will die with peace of mind."
The old princess really hates Nangong Yu. No matter whether her strange power or evil saying is true or false, she still has to use this incident to provoke her son's disgust towards her.
Situ Qingtian's eyes flashed with coldness, and his low voice sounded: "Don't worry, Mother, don't forget the father's revenge, Mother, have a good rest, I have something to do, I'll see you later."
The old princess nodded: "Go and do it!"
Seeing his son leave, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but with this "pig head", it looked funny and terrifying.
Situ Qingtian still has one thing to deal with, so he has no time to settle the score with Nangong Yu for the time being. He will go there later. After Situ Qingtian left Yue'an Courtyard, he went directly to Xia Xiyun's residence.
Since she learned yesterday that Situ Qingtian had accompanied Nangong Yu back to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, Xia Xiyun has been angry. She was clearly arranged for someone to wait for Nangong Yu on the way to her cousin's residence and told her that her cousin had gone to the military camp, but she didn't expect that she didn't take that road, which was abominable.
After being plotted by Nangong Yu, he made an ugly appearance in front of the servants, and his cousin saw it. After thinking about it, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. His cousin also accompanied her to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion in person. Was my cousin really confused by that woman?
Nangong Yu is definitely not as weak as the ones rumored outside.
"Miss, Miss--" Taoer ran in from outside panting.
When Xia Xiyun, who was angry, saw Tao'er's appearance, she said unhappily: "What kind of morality is it to be in a panic?"
Tao'er said in a casual tone: "Miss, the king, the prince is here."
"What? My cousin is here." Xia Xiyun stood up from the chair happily, hurriedly sorting out her clothes and headdress and said, "Taoer, please help me see if there is anything wrong with my clothes, headdress, and makeup?"
Tao'er hurriedly smiled and comforted, "Miss, don't be nervous, Miss is so beautiful. The prince came to the lady's place just after the morning court, which is enough to show the prince's concern for the lady. Yesterday, the prince accompanied the prince back to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, and he was just doing superficial skills to show others. After all, the prince and the princess were the emperor's marriage, and the princess was the legitimate daughter of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion. If the prince did not go, wouldn't he be disrespectful to the emperor and betray the left prime minister's face? So the prince is not because of the princess! Miss, don't be angry."
Xia Xiyun finally showed a happy smile on her face: "You are right, how could my cousin fall in love with the granddaughter of his enemy? I misunderstood my cousin, Taoer, hurry up, take the gilded green beacon I bought and put it on for me."
"It's a lady." Tao'er hurried to the dressing table, helped Xia Xiyun take Bu Yao and put it on for her.
"How is it? Does it look good?" Xia Xiyun's heart thumped. She has liked her cousin since she was a child, so she wanted to show him her most beautiful side.
"It looks good, the lady is beautiful, and she looks good when wearing anything." Taoer praised.
Xia Xiyun smiled happily.
While talking, he saw Situ Qingtian walking in.
Xia Xiyun immediately greeted her and bowed: "Cousin."
"No need to be polite." A voice without any temperature sounded, and the deep and dark eyes flashed with displeasure.
Xia Xiyun stood up, raised a charming smile on the corner of her mouth and said, "Cousin, you just had morning court and had not had breakfast yet! I'll let the servant prepare breakfast." Xia Xiyun has not received any news about the old princess.
"No need." Situ Qingtian refused coldly.
Xia Xiyun continued to smile and said, "My cousin seems to be angry? Who is so bold that he dares to make his cousin angry?"
Situ Qingtian looked at her, his eyes flashed sternly, and a playful curve curled up at the corner of his lips and said, "Who do I think it will make me angry?"
Xia Xiyun smiled and said, "Cousin is so stumping Xiyun. Xiyun doesn't have the ability to calculate. But didn't my cousin go back to Zuoxiang Mansion yesterday? Why did he feel displeased as soon as he came back today? Could it be that - did the cousin's wife make her unhappy?"
"This is what you hope!" Situ Qingtian asked without hesitation.
