"Is that so?" The Fifth Prince seemed to feel better, and there was a mischievous smile in his voice." You're just coaxing me, right? I'm young and insensible. Mother often, often scolds me for only knowing how to play. How can I be as good as you say?"
He probably recalled how happy he was when he acted coquettishly in front of his mother. As he spoke, his voice revealed an indescribable sense of loss and desire. If I could go back to the past-
All mothers in the world loved their children in the same way. Murong Hanzhi smiled indifferently, his thoughts drifting away. He responded to the Fifth Prince with his mouth. Who in the palace did not know Consort Shu's love for the Fifth Prince? How could they really scold the Fifth Prince? These days, this servant saw Shu Fei Niangniang cry for the Fifth Prince, this servant…
At this point, she was shocked and her face began to turn pale. Who was she to actually talk about the emperor's concubine. If this got out, wouldn't she be punished?
After waiting for a long time without any movement, the Fifth Prince seemed to be a little anxious." Have you left? Why aren't you talking?"
"This servant said something wrong. Fifth Prince, please forgive me!”Murong Hanzhi composed himself and lowered his head. This servant knew that her status was low.
"How old are you?" The Fifth Prince didn't seem to hear Murong Hanzhi's confession and suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
Murong Hanzhi was stunned by the question and only recovered after a while." This servant is 10 - 17 years old."
"Really?" The Fifth Prince immediately became happy." Then you're one year older than me. What's your name?”
"Uh…"
Murong Hanzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why was this Fifth Prince talking to her about these everyday matters? Or was it because he hadn't talked to anyone for too long and didn't know what to say?
"This servant is Murong Hanzhi."
In fact, she was very unwilling to mention her name in front of others because it would remind her that she was the daughter of a traitor and deserved to be humiliated and tortured.
People couldn't choose their birth. With such a father, what else could she do?
The Fifth Prince hummed in acknowledgment," Then you are my Big Sister Murong. Don't tell me that you are not worthy of anything. I don't like to hear it, understand?”
This person blocked Murong Hanzhi's words first. How could he refuse?
"This servant will respectfully obey."
Because she could feel the Fifth Prince's pure nature. Moreover, he was already seriously ill, and no one else would come. Could it be that she was still afraid of being laughed at for trying to get close to the Emperor?
The Fifth Prince was very happy." Sister Murong, how did you enter the palace?”
Murong Hanzhi's body trembled, and even his lips trembled." This servant, this servant greets Lady Shu Fei. This servant deserves to die!”She didn't know how to reply, but when she turned her eyes, she was shocked to see Consort Yang Shu standing behind her, smiling at her.
Her shock was no small matter. She didn't know what Consort Yang Shu had heard and whether she would think of something else!
Unexpectedly, before she could apologize, Consort Yang Shu helped her up, her hands trembling slightly." Miss Murong, please rise. What crime do you have? On the contrary, you have merit. Please rise quickly!"”
"Skill?"
What skill?
Murong Hanzhi was stunned and forgot his manners. He stared blankly at Consort Yang Shu's teary eyes. She and the Fifth Prince had no respect for each other, and she even pretended to be his elder sister. Wasn't this a great sin?
Consort Yang Shu pulled her hand and sat down. She was probably too agitated and did not know what to say." Miss Murong, bengong wants to thank you. You, you don't know that Yue 'er has been unwilling to talk to bengong for more than a year. He told you, said so much…"
Ever since the Fifth Prince said that his mother often scolded him for being mischievous, Consort Yang Shu had already brought Qing Ge over. However, she was surprised to hear that the Fifth Prince had actually said so much. She could not help but be ecstatic, so she stopped Qing Ge from alerting Murong Hanzhi.
It had been more than a year, and she had not seen her son once. Even listening to her son say a word had become a luxury! No matter who Murong Hanzhi was, as long as her son was willing to talk to her, what else could she ask for as a mother?
"Mother." The Fifth Prince maintained his good mood and called out with a smile.
Consort Yang Shu walked to the door in surprise and joy. She really wished she could ignore everything and rush in to hug Yue 'er tightly in her arms! "Yue 'er, you, do you feel better?!”
" Mm." The Fifth Prince agreed briskly." Mother, you don't have to worry about me. I've been talking to Sister Murong, but I feel tired now and want to sleep for a while. Mother, go back. I'll be fine."”
"Oh, it's good that you're fine. Be good and sleep for a while.”Consort Yang Shu was so excited that her entire body was trembling. It was rare for her son to be so relaxed, so she did not dare to disturb him. She immediately retreated." Miss Murong, please follow me."”
It seemed that Murong Hanzhi was different to the Fifth Prince. Should she do something?
"Yes." Murong Hanzhi replied and followed behind him in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. They left the small courtyard and went straight to Jia Yuan Palace.
Consort Yang Shu sat down on the soft couch in exhaustion and raised her head." Miss Murong, you know about Yue 'er's matter, right?”
Although she had not said anything to Murong Hanzhi, since Murong Hanzhi was able to say those words to the Fifth Prince, he must have known the inside story.
Murong Hanzhi nodded." Yes, this servant knows a little, but don't worry, Your Highness. This servant won't say anything."”As for the Fifth Prince calling her Big Sister Murong, she naturally wouldn't say anything more. She didn't want to be laughed at.
"Sigh!" Consort Yang Shu sighed heavily, her two eyebrows were about to knit together." Miss Murong, BenGong isn't afraid of being laughed at by you. Yue 'er is so sick, but BenGong as his mother can't help him at all. BenGong is really…"
As she spoke, her voice was already choked with sobs. She pinched her temples with her hands. She was really exhausted.
"This servant is too talkative. Please relax your heart, Consort Shu. The Fifth Prince's illness will not recover in two or three days.”
Murong Hanzhi lowered her head, feeling extremely upset. Consort Yang Shu's appearance reminded her of her mother, who had passed away due to illness, and her mood was very heavy.
"How can bengong relax?" Consort Yang Shu slowly shook her head and started crying in front of Murong Hanzhi." I only have one child, Yue 'er. If anything happens to him, how can I live…"
Murong Hanzhi was about to comfort her, but after thinking about it, she closed her lips. Under such circumstances, whatever she said would be useless. It was better to let Consort Yang Shu cry. It would also make her feel better.
After a while, Consort Yang Shu had cried enough and slowly stopped crying. She raised her head again, her eyes shining with hope." Miss Murong, you don't know, ever since Yue 'er fell ill, he has never been as happy as he is today. It seems that he likes you very much. Can you come and talk to him often?"”
"Hmm?"
Murong Hanzhi was startled. She didn't expect Consort Yang Shu to call her over to tell her this! She was a female slave of the laundry bureau. Every day, she had to wash a lot of clothes and do a lot of work. How could she have the fortune to just come and talk to the Fifth Prince?
Seeing that Murong Hanzhi was silent, Consort Yang Shu's eyes dimmed. She instinctively thought that Murong Hanzhi was afraid of being infected, so she wanted to refuse. She smiled bitterly and shook her head." Forget it, I know that you are forcing yourself. I don't blame you, you…"
"The Empress did not force him! This servant is a laundry female slave. If Shu Fei Niangniang wants to assign work to this servant, should I inform Nanny Lou?”Murong Hanzhi knew that she had misunderstood something and hurriedly explained.
Consort Yang Shu was stunned for a moment before she was overjoyed. Even the usually quiet Consort Yang Shu lost her composure and her body started to tremble violently." Miss Murong, you, you agreed?!”
Murong Hanzhi nodded respectfully." As long as Your Highness doesn't mind that I'm clumsy and can't make the Fifth Prince happy, I'll listen to Your Highness's orders."”
Very good, that was it.
As long as she could get close to the Fifth Prince, get close to Consort Yang Shu, and gain her trust, her plan to leave this place could be realized step by step.
"That's good! That's good!" Consort Yang Shu was so happy that she cried. She did not forget to turn around and instruct Qing Ge," Go to the laundry bureau and inform Nanny Lou. Tell her that BenGong thinks Murong Hanzhi is a good girl and will leave her here to serve. You know what to say, don't you?"”
When she gave orders as the master, Consort Yang Shu became the high and mighty concubine that the Emperor doted on the most. No one dared to disobey her words.
"Yes, sir!" Qing Ge quickly agreed and hurried out of the door, but she was secretly muttering," If Murong Hanzhi stayed here, the people from the laundry bureau would have to take turns to pick up and deliver clothes, right?
Murong Hanzhi lowered his head slightly. A sharp light flashed in his eyes, and a wise smile appeared on his lips.
