The Fate of the Red Chamber

Chapter 94: Daiyu was frightened by the first taste of vinegar

It was said that Mo Han was in a hurry to go back home to have dinner with Daiyu after finishing his work, unexpectedly he met Prince Zhongshun on the way.I don't know what's the problem today, but when I saw Mo Han, I was very enthusiastic, and I must drag him to have a drink for fun.Mo Han was naturally unwilling, but he couldn't hold back Prince Zhongshun's nonsense, and he didn't want to offend Prince Zhongshun's mansion in the face of this result, so he reluctantly followed.

It’s okay if you don’t go, but when you go, Mo Han’s head swells up, Princess Tangjin is sitting in the private room waiting for him, and when he sees him and the bees, it’s like seeing flowers, and he’s going to hit him without saying a word flutter.

Fortunately, Mo Han's body was flexible and his reaction was quick, so he dodged Tang Jin's claws in one go.

Tang Jin was not angry, she pulled him to sit next to her, and still talked with him heart and soul, Mo Han was so impatient, she wanted to say goodbye and go back.But Tang Jin spent so much effort to bribe her brother and help her get Mo Han in front of her eyes, how could she let him go so easily and refuse to let him go.Mo Han couldn't help it, so he ate something casually to fill his stomach first.

Prince Zhongshun slipped away after drinking and eating, and Tang Jin was even more unscrupulous, and pulled Mo Han to accompany her to go shopping.How could Mo Han be willing to go and let people see him shopping with the Princess Zhongshun's mansion? Not only would his innocence be at stake, but also how many people would suspect that he had taken refuge in King Zhongshun or the Queen Mother.Especially with his younger sister, he didn't want Daiyu to misunderstand her.

Mo Han wanted to run away several times, but Tang Jin caught him straight with sharp eyes, and secretly gave the servant a wink, telling him to go back and report to Daiyu.

"Mo Han, what do you think of this? Does it look good on me?" In Ruiyun Pavilion, Tang Jin picked out a good-looking red jadeite drop bead phoenix-headed golden step, and put it in front of Mo Han, smiling at Yanyan.

"Well, good." Mo Han didn't even look at it, and responded blankly, slandering why his sister didn't come to save him.

A look of disappointment flashed in Tang Jin's eyes, and then she smiled coquettishly and said, "Then why don't you try it on for me?"

"I'm a big man, I'm an insult to gentleness, Cui Xing, and I'm still here to serve your princess." Wearing jewelry for her in the public, even if there is nothing to do, people must spread something. This Tang Jin is clearly on purpose.

How can Cui Xing not know what the master is thinking, the master has taken a fancy to Prince Lin, and Prince Lin seems to have no interest in the princess, even if the princess took the initiative, he has no reaction.It's also strange, the princess's beauty is a rare beauty even if she is not considered the crown of the capital, why is this Prince Lin not tempted at all?Lord Lin's orders, should I listen or not? If I don't listen, I will offend Lord Lin and my princess will be unhappy.

Tang Jin really couldn't understand Mo Han's thoughts, and changed to another man, this time he was not flattering and considerate to himself, only he had an iceberg face.But that's what I like about him.Isn't he afraid that his father will fight against him, and isn't he afraid that the queen mother will attack him?Could it be that he disgusted him so much that he refused to agree to even a small request.As Tang Jin thought about it, her complexion gradually darkened, as if it could rain anytime.

At such a critical moment, the guards of the Lin Mansion galloped off their horses outside the door, ran in in three or two steps, knelt down and said: "My lord, the princess suddenly feels unwell, please go back quickly."

"What? Did you invite the imperial physician?" Mo Han knew that he was acting, but seeing the guard's expression was very realistic, he couldn't help worrying, and raised the guard with anxiety on his face.

"I've already gone to invite Doctor Hua. I think it will be here in a while." The guard secretly praised the prince's acting skills, he thought he acted very similarly, and he didn't want the prince to be more similar than him.

When Mo Han heard this, he hurried to the layman, his tone was a little cold: "Go back to the house."

Tang Jin was stunned for a moment by the sudden change, quickly caught up, and told her servants: "Prepare the car, let's go to the Lin Mansion."

Mo Han was taken aback by her words, she wanted to follow what she wanted to do, so she reined in the horse's reins and cupped her fists to thank: "Princess, the house is busy, I'm afraid I don't have time to entertain her, why don't I invite her to the mansion another day?" Sit up."

"I'm not here to play. I'm going to see your sister too. If you need help with anything, you don't have to be polite to me." After finishing speaking, Tang Jin put down the curtain of the carriage, and a sentence came from inside the carriage, "Hurry to the Lin Mansion" There was no sound.The coachman didn't dare to slack off, he urged the horse forward, but managed to get ahead of Mo Han.

It's really shooting yourself in the foot, and lured her to the house. What good things can happen, don't be exposed by her.Seeing this, Mo Han knew it was useless to stop him, so he hurried back to the mansion angrily.

As soon as she entered the second gate of the Lin Mansion, Bixiang took it out, and without paying any attention to Mo Han, she replied first: "My lord, the Princess has a pain in her chest, and Imperial Physician Hua has just arrived, and this time she is going inside to get her pulse." She had to do a full set, so Daiyu really invited Physician Hua to come, and sent Bixiang here just in case, but she didn't expect it to come true.Bixiang caught a glimpse of a luxury carriage bearing the Zhongshun Palace sign behind, and secretly thought it was dangerous.

"I'll go in and have a look. You are so good at serving Princess Tangjin, so don't neglect." After saying these words, the man rushed inside.

Tang Jin got out of the car, but Mo Han was no longer there, only a few maidservants waited on the ground and saluted her.

"Forget it, lead the way." Tang Jin waved her hand, supported Cui Xing's hand, and walked inside.

"Slave Bixiang, please move the princess to the hall." Bixiang lowered her eyebrows and looked pleasing to the eye.

"No, take this princess to your princess' yard."

Bixiang thought to herself, as a servant, she couldn't stop the irascible Princess Tangjin at all, she thought that she was already prepared to come to the girl, so it didn't matter if she led her, and she quickly responded respectfully.

Tangjin walked all the way, the garden of the Lin Mansion is indeed nice, quiet and elegant, very suitable for living, but Lin Mohan is quite leisurely.When she arrived at Wanyuan, a group of servant girls came out to greet her immediately, and they all greeted her respectfully.

When I entered the door, I happened to hear Imperial Physician Hua talking to Mo Han: "My lord, don't worry, the princess is too tired this summer, and it's easy to get sick in autumn, just take two doses of medicine. Take care of yourself daily, don't be tired or catch a cold Don’t think about it too much, it will be more nourishing in winter, and the root cause of the disease will almost go away next year.”

"Thank you, Imperial Physician Hua. In the future, Imperial Physician Lao Hua will take care of my younger sister's condition."

When Tang Jin came in, Imperial Physician Hua saw her first, and treated her no differently from others.

Mo Han frowned slightly, with an imperceptible coolness flashing across his eyes, and asked lightly: "Isn't the princess resting in front?"

"I'm coming to see Princess Hanxiang."

"My younger sister has just taken the medicine given by Doctor Hua, and she has recovered a lot. I'm afraid she's taking a rest. Why don't I convey it to the princess." Mo Han's voice is gentle, but he has an irresistible majesty. Tang Jin had never seen it before.

"That's fine. If that's the case, I won't bother you. I'll come to visit another day." Tang Jin's eyes were dark, not as happy as in the past, and Mo Han suddenly became alert.

Mo Han sent Tang Jin and Imperial Physician Hua out, rushed back to Wanyuan, and went straight into Daiyu's boudoir.

Daiyu was leaning on the big apricot red pillow, half lying down, covered with a thin brocade quilt, she could be seen wearing a small ivory gauze dress under her exposed shoulders, which further made her skin like jade, like a flower. Jiao.

"Sister, I have wronged you." Mo Han sat on the edge of the bed next to Daiyu, rubbing her jade wrist, trying to please her in every possible way.

Daiyu shook off Mo Han's hand, turned her head inward, and ignored him, her slightly trembling eyelashes showed that she was not happy.

Mo Han took Daiyu's shoulders, brushed her braids behind her ears, and asked dotingly, "What would my sister like for dinner? I remember fresh lotus roots were delivered from the farm in the morning. Why don't you make sweet-scented osmanthus candies?" Eat lotus root, clear the lungs and moisten the throat, okay?"

In fact, after Daiyu dismissed the servant sent by Mohan, she felt a little unhappy, her brother is so capable, how could she not even be able to handle a princess of Tangjin, probably because she was reluctant to offend the beauty.When I thought about it, I connected it with what happened in the Summer Resort, and I thought of Tang Jin's eyes looking at Mo Han, it was extremely weird, it was clearly full of affection, it turned out that the two of them had been flirting secretly for a long time.He also lied to himself that if he wanted to get out of the siege by himself, he simply couldn't think of leaving.snort!

The more Daiyu thinks about it, the more sad and wronged she feels. She is worried for him at home, but he is fine, and goes shopping with other girls' houses. He has never taken himself to go shopping. I remember when I first came to the capital, I promised to accompany me to have a good time Take a look at the scenery of the capital.It's all a lie, thanks to being so stupid, I actually took it seriously.

Daiyu was not happy at all, but a little girl didn't know it, so she came to add fuel to the flames and sent an invitation to Wu Xue'e's two-thousand-gold autumn banquet for Wu Guifei's natal sister, Zuodu Censor Wu.It's fine if you don't look at it, but just looking at it arouses the evil fire that was so hard to suppress in the morning, brother, this big peach blossom, rotten peach blossom.

Firstly, she pretended to be sick, and secondly, Daiyu was really dissatisfied, so she simply lay down on the bed, and happened to hide it from Tangjin.

When Mo Han came back, he found that Dai Yu's expression was not good, he was guilty, and he was more considerate and gentle than usual.In Daiyu's eyes, it was a bit of an attempt to cover up, so it added three points to attracting five points of Daiyu's anger.

"I don't want to take it. I'm going to sleep after taking the medicine." Daiyu's eyes were red and watery, she slid down, really ready to sleep.

Mo Han originally thought that Daiyu was just being a little awkward, but suddenly realized that she was really angry this time, and hurriedly wrapped her arms around her slender waist, and softly begged for mercy: "Sister, we will have dinner in a while, let's get up and take a walk , otherwise I won’t be able to eat dinner. Look at you, you’re all skinny, and there’s no flesh on your little face.”

As the saying goes, a woman in love is the most unreasonable, let alone Daiyu with such a sensitive and petite temperament, tears rolling down, she pushed Mo Han and cried: "If you despise me, just go, I don't know how many people are out there The beautiful, gentle, generous and dignified Miss Qianjin is waiting, Xueyan, don’t send those invitations yet, let the uncle choose one by himself.”

Xueyan was guarding the door of the room, and her heart was jumping violently. Uncle, you offended the girl yourself. Don't blame me, Xueyan, for not helping you. I dare not go against the girl's wishes when she is angry.Holding a thick pile of brightly colored invitations, he moved in step by step, came over with a small case, piled on top of it and slipped out, continuing to guard the door.

Mo Han didn't know these invitations yet, looked at them in astonishment, picked up a few and flipped through them, all of them were for Daiyu to the banquet.What does this have to do with me? They all invite their sisters, but not me?

"Tell me after you have chosen, and I will go wherever you want me to go." Daiyu covered her face with a handkerchief, drooping her pink neck, and her tone became more and more bitter.

Mo Han really couldn't figure it out, what does this have to do with my sister's anger, if we don't like to socialize, we won't go, why bother to get angry and hurt ourselves.Seeing Daiyu crying so sadly again, my heart was broken, so I hugged Daiyu in my arms and comforted him gently: "Sister, didn't Imperial Physician Hua tell you to take good care of yourself? Let's not go to these things, stop crying , don’t cry.”

Daiyu didn't know if Mo Han understood the pass here. Seeing the heartache and anxiety in his eyes, she was immediately relieved, but said stubbornly: "Are you sure you don't want to go? They are waiting for you."

"Uh, wait for me? Isn't this for you? What does it have to do with me?" When Mo Han met Daiyu, he lost his usual cleverness, and he hadn't even figured out why Daiyu was so angry.

"You, you idiot." Daiyu was so angry that she forgot to cry, she poked Mo Han's temple with her little finger, bit her lip and said this, and couldn't help explaining to him after a long time: "They asked me for you, If you want me to fall in love with you first, say something nice for them, and think, want to be my sister-in-law." Daiyu was a little shy in the end, and made a big turn in embarrassment.

It wasn't until the last sentence that Mo Han realized that Daiyu spoke extremely rationally, she was both guilty and sweet, and after a long time of trouble, her sister was jealous.

"Sister, no one can be your sister-in-law. If you have such thoughts in the future, just push it away and ignore it." Mo Han whispered in Daiyu's ear, and glanced at her tender cheeks. , There was an inexplicable bang, and my lips covered her delicate face by accident, and when I touched the cold tears, I felt scorching.

Feather-like soft pecks on her cheeks, bringing a violent and anxious sense of oppression, from soothing to urgent, caressing her entire face, even earlobes, and even neck, the world in Daiyu's eyes collapsed suddenly.Everywhere she went, there was a trace of hotness, a kind of trembling, which made her heart beat up to her throat, her eyes were wide open, but she couldn't see anything.

Gradually, Daiyu's pink cheeks were as red as the clouds in the sky, bright and gorgeous, and her white jade-like collarbone was dyed rouge, which was extremely intoxicating, teasing Mo Han's limit, and swept his whole body.

The blazing fire in Mo Han's eyes frightened Daiyu who was intoxicated, her brother's eyes seemed to swallow her up, she couldn't help but let out a coquettish cry, pushed Mo Han away and retreated to the corner of the bed.Xueyan rushed in upon hearing the sound, and seeing the girl huddled in a corner with her little head buried in the quilt, the uncle seemed extremely ashamed and annoyed.

"It's okay, you can go out." After a long time, Mo Han finally found his voice, but it was low and hoarse.

Seeing Daiyu's silence, Xueyan thought she had no objection, so she retreated in doubt, tilting her head, wondering if the uncle hadn't coaxed the girl away yet.

Mo Han got up, went to the table and poured a glass of water, downed it in one gulp, drank three glasses in a row, his breathing calmed down, and the fever on his face began to subside.He must have scared Daiyu, she is still so young, she doesn't understand these things at all, why can't she just, can't control herself like this, will Daiyu see him as a bad person?

Holding the cup, she summoned up the courage to walk to the bed, lifted the quilt covering Daiyu's head, and said at a loss, "Sister, drink some water."

Daiyu still didn't dare to raise her head, so she drank water from Mo Han's hand, she gradually calmed down, and took a quick glance at Mo Han, her face was burning again.

Mo Han was afraid of scaring her, and felt that this kind of thing should be explained to her clearly, otherwise it would be hard not to leave a shadow in his heart. Women in ancient times were no better than modern women. Before they got married, they probably didn't even know what a kiss was.

"Sister, I'm sorry, don't be afraid. This, this is because my brother likes you, do you understand? I, I like my sister just now, just like my brother usually hugs you, it's the same, do you understand?" Mo Han suddenly He found it really difficult to explain this to a little girl in ancient times. He stuttered and didn't know how to describe it.

Daiyu seems to understand, but there is no fear in the eyes looking at Mo Han, and even a little bit of longing because of Mo Han's words, it's because my brother likes her, is it like this?Daiyu finally nodded shyly, her small mouth curled up quietly.

Mo Han felt that he was sweating all over, and he was more tired than asking him to do anything. It seemed that he must not let himself go in the future, otherwise he would not be so easy to fool next time.

There was a little bit of embarrassment between the two of them, so Daiyu forgot to discuss serious matters with Mo Han, and forgot to ask him how he would deal with the Queen Mother in the future.

Unexpectedly, in the early morning of the second day, the queen mother was given a reward from the palace, all of which were precious medicinal materials. The eunuch who came to give the reward also spread the word that the queen mother asked the princess to take good care of her health. If you need anything, just go to the palace and talk to her. explain.Not long after, Princess Tangjin of Prince Zhongshun sent someone over, not only to deliver things, but also to visit Daiyu's condition.

Daiyu and Mohan looked at each other, could it be that Tang Jin went to the Queen Mother in the palace after leaving the Lin Mansion yesterday, but why did she care so much about Daiyu, their friendship seems not so deep.If there is anything that is not good for Daiyu, why not send so many precious medicinal materials, is it just to please Mohan?

The two of them had no time to discuss in detail when Imperial Physician Hua came.According to Li, Imperial Physician Hua knew the inside story, if he didn't invite him today, he wouldn't come, so I had to see Imperial Physician Hua.

Physician Hua went into the room to check Daiyu's pulse, and said to the two brothers and sisters in a low voice: "Early this morning, the empress dowager summoned me into the palace to inquire about the condition of the princess, and I returned as we agreed before. The empress dowager Didn't say anything else, just told me to take good care of the princess's body, and report in time if there is any situation, it seems to care about the princess."

The Empress Dowager has always disliked Daiyu, and she always treats them out of face. When she changed her sex, she actually cared about her body. There must be some kind of conspiracy here.Could it be that he wanted to take advantage of Daiyu's illness, but even if he really murdered Daiyu, what good would it do for the Empress Dowager's affairs? It would only make Mo Han and the Lin family hate the Empress Dowager even more.If it wasn't for this calculation, what else could be the reason?

"Mr. Hua, Mo Han thank you for your love for each other. We brothers and sisters will never forget your great kindness. My sister will ask you in the future." Mo Han made a deep bow to Imperial Physician Hua. The imperial physician took great care of their Lin family, but for some unknown reason.

"You don't have to worry too much, it's what I should have done. I'm just worried that the Queen Mother won't trust me and send another imperial doctor to take care of the Princess, so things won't be easy. After years of recuperation, the Princess' body has Although it is not as healthy as others, it is already seven or eight times better, and an imperial physician with some medical skills can diagnose it." Imperial physician Hua hurriedly supported Mo Han, preventing him from bowing down, and stroked his white beard.

Knowing the Queen Mother's suspicion, Mo Han would never fully trust Imperial Physician Hua who had always treated the Lin family, and would definitely send another confidant to come to find out the truth. Physician Hua said so, maybe there is some way.Mo Han asked respectfully and sincerely: "Hua Lao's medical skills are known to everyone in the world, is there any way you can teach us brothers and sisters?"

"There is no way, there is only one kind of pill. After taking it, the symptoms of weakness and chronic illness will appear soon. If the queen mother sends other imperial doctors to come, the princess will take this medicine quickly, and you will be able to deceive the world. Take a little ginseng chicken soup afterwards and you will be fine. With that said, Imperial Physician Hua took out two white porcelain vials from his bosom, handed them to Mo Han, and said, "Ten in each bottle. It's best for the princess to keep one bottle with her body, and give the other bottle to her close servant girl , be prepared.”

Mo Han took the porcelain bottle with both hands, and thanked: "Mo Han thanked Hua Lao for his kindness on behalf of my sister. I will never forget it."

Sending off Doctor Hua, Mo Han poured out the medicine in the porcelain bottle, exactly twenty pills, Nanny Han, Bai Hui, Xueyan, Qingning, and Qingyue took two pills from each of them, and he took five pills himself. , and put the remaining five in Daiyu's purse.In this way, there should be no surprises.

Afterwards, Mo Han tried to find out what Tang Jin had said to the Queen Mother after entering the palace, but the Queen Mother sent everyone out, leaving only Tang Jin in front of her, and the two had a secret conversation for more than half an hour.Others couldn't hear it at all.The more this is the case, the more suspicious the matter is, Mo Han knows that there must be some extremely secret and ulterior conspiracy, otherwise the Queen Mother would not be so cautious.

Since that time when she came to Lin Mansion, Tang Jin came here often, and Mo Han was either there or not.Her attitude towards Daiyu has also changed a lot. In the past, she always showed some displeasure when seeing Daiyu, but now she is extremely friendly to Daiyu, and she is even very close to Daiyu when she occasionally meets in social occasions.

Both Daiyu and Mohan were a little confused, so they could only be careful and try to avoid her.

The most surprising thing is that the emperor seems to be more eager for Daiyu than before, and the rewards continue to flow down.No matter how many beauties Mo Han and Liu Xuan sent to the palace, none of them dispelled the emperor's thoughts on Daiyu, which made Mo Han and Liu Xuan very worried.Almost all the relatives and noble families in the capital are secretly rumoring that the draft pick in the spring of the following year will definitely enter the palace.After all, the family background of the current concubines in the harem is not as noble as that of Princess Hanxiang, and the highest family background of the next show girl is no more than the daughter of a second-rank official.

Princess Tangjin is of the right age, and her status is particularly distinguished, but she is not a candidate for the next show girl. Prince Zhongshun has long since removed her daughter's name from the list of show girls.Mo Han wanted to do the same, but found that no matter what connections he used, Daiyu's name was the first in the list of beautiful girls.

The most incredible thing is that the queen mother must have heard the rumors outside, but did not take any action, allowing the rumors to intensify.
