Chapter 418 Mushroom Stewed Chicken and Chicken Soup Noodles (10)

This sentence was also what Wen Mingtang was thinking: she didn't believe Concubine Jing, or that Xinyue deliberately chose the day she entered the palace to attack Zhao Sishan, and even made a big deal about Concubine Jing being "unwell". He replied just to let her watch and worry.

It's not that he thinks highly of himself or anything, it's just that he knows that in the eyes of those people, he is really too small to be worth mentioning. Those people couldn't do it to hurt Concubine Jing's "golden body" just to make her anxious. This move must have some other purpose.

So after talking to the Queen, Wen Mingtang left the Queen's palace. She didn't go far. After leaving the queen's palace, she sat down on the stone pavilion in the corridor dozens of steps away from the front of the palace.

This location is not close. The guards in front of the queen's palace can't see the expression on Wen Mingtang's face clearly, and they can't hear what she has to say. However, this location is not far away either. If anything happens to Wen Mingtang here, the guards can see it at a glance and can respond at any time. Come here.

After waiting for less than half an hour, a voice came from behind.

"You really understand what I mean." His tone was gentle, with a graceful and soft voice unique to Jiangnan women, "I came out specifically to wait for me."

Before Wen Mingtang completely turned his head, he called out the person's name: "Xinyue." As the words fell, a palace maid in a light blue palace shirt appeared in Wen Mingtang's sight.

There were only one inconspicuous wooden hairpin stuck in the bun, but now there were three huge pearl hairpins stuck in it. Looking at the color and luster, it was obvious that they were gifts from Concubine Jing.

The standing maid heard her voice, pursed her lips, smiled, and raised her head. With this movement of raising her head, the pearls on her earlobes swayed slightly, which made her look even more graceful. Same silence.

From the outside, she is really an extremely gentle woman. Coupled with her voice that is slightly Wu Nong's soft-spoken voice, one would never think that she could poison people.

Xinyue smiled, took two steps forward, sat down opposite her in the stone pavilion, smiled and said, "Miss Wen."

Miss Wen's words made Wen Mingtang's eyes flash slightly. After sighing faintly, he said: "I was stupid at that time. Zhao Sishan and the others called me Mingtang. This name is because of who I am. Make good friends, you call me Miss Wen, obviously you are close to me not because of me as a person, but because of the surname 'Wen'."

When Xinyue heard this, she sighed lightly and nodded with a smile: "Not bad." After a pause, she added, "I always thought you were stupid. But today, seeing you take the initiative to wait for me here, I realize that you were stupid before." It doesn't mean you're stupid now. People can really change. You are Wen Xuance's daughter after all, so you're not too stupid."

People really do change. Wen Mingtang ignored the other words and just repeated the meaning of this sentence. Suddenly, he felt that this moment was a little funny.

Because she had trusted her before in the palace, so in Xinyue's eyes, was this stupid?

Wen Mingtang lowered his eyelids to cover the emotions in his eyes. After a long pause, he looked up at Xinyue and slowly spoke: "My mother spent her childhood in Jiangnan and did not return to Beijing until she was ten years old. So Wu Nong speaks fluent Mandarin. After returning to Beijing, although he learned Mandarin, he still spoke with an accent..."

When Wen Mingtang first spoke, Xinyue had no reaction. It was not until the words "he spoke with some accent" that Xinyue was stunned and his eyes changed slightly.

Wen Mingtang's eyes fell on the pearls dangling slightly on her earlobes for a moment, and then he said: "Among the pearls and hairpins, she loves pearls the most. She thinks they are simple, elegant and quite beautiful."

When Xinyue heard this, her expression suddenly changed.

Wen Mingtang then lowered his eyes and smiled: "You came suddenly, and your acting skills are not very good. It's just that your behavior and expression really resemble my mother. I miss my mother. There are always some differences between people who resemble my mother, so I thought Try to believe you once."

Xinyue's face suddenly turned pale.

Looking at Xinyue's pale face, Wen Mingtang sighed quietly, and said: "I was stupid at that time. The deceased is already gone. My mother is already deceased, so why should I find a substitute to mourn her?"

She noticed that when she mentioned the word "substitute", Xinyue bit her lower lip subconsciously.

Wen Mingtang touched his face: Needless to say what he looked like when he was born, he was the stupidest one. Although it is from his mother, it is probably because of the blood mixed with Wen Xuance's blood. Although he can see a bit of his mother's facial features from the scattered facial features, his face looks and feels the same as his mother's. It doesn't feel the same.

My mother is a beauty, and she is a gentle, gentle and timid beauty. Looking from a distance, she looks quite like a weak willow supporting the wind. If such a beauty meets someone who cares about her, she will live a good life. It's a pity that she fell in love with Wen Xuance, who had an incomprehensible charm and was devoted to governing the country and caring for the people.

There may be a hint of Wen Xuance in his eyebrows, but Wen Mingtang doesn't have such an attitude.

On the other hand, the Xinyue in front of me, although her facial features are far inferior to those of her mother, there is quite a bit of her in her posture.

What Wen Mingtang said just now was true. It was because of her mother-like attitude that he treated her differently. But speaking of this at this time, there is a somewhat tentative tone.

This Xinyue poison could not kill her. If it were just an ordinary chess piece, it would be useless by theory, but not only was she not silenced, but she was able to stand up... Wen Mingtang felt that this chess piece should have something special about it, so he just looked at her The way she behaves is more like her mother than the way she behaved in the palace a year ago.

It's funny to say that if you see it all the time in the palace, you may not be able to tell the difference at a glance. But now, it was this year of absence that made her feel the difference at a glance. Not to mention, this gesture was imitated by none other than her mother.

Therefore, when Xinyue walked up to her, she tested her out. Judging from her face, the result of this test... was exactly what Wen Mingtang had guessed, but it made Wen Mingtang feel a little sad.

Seeing Xinyue's dazed expression, Wen Mingtang rolled his eyes, and was about to open his mouth to test something, but at this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the smell of medicine from Xinyue's body rushed into Wen Mingtang's nose. Wen Mingtang's expression changed slightly, and if he was about to speak, he immediately retracted his words. She just lowered her eyes and wiped her eyes with her sleeves. When she looked up again, she asked Xinyue with red eyes: "You don't like me, so why bother Zhao Sishan? Do you still remember that you were framed and suffered from hunger and stomachache?" When it was unbearable, Zhao Sishan secretly turned on the stove at night and cooked a bowl of noodles for you..."

Xinyue, who was currently in an extremely irritable mood, became even more impatient when hearing these words of old friendship being brought up again. Before Wen Mingtang could finish blabbering, he interrupted her unceremoniously: "Okay! Do you still take me seriously? Do I really need your bowl of noodles or a piece of sweet potato? If I hadn’t been trying to get close to you, I wouldn’t have been framed at all!"

Without waiting for Wen Mingtang to speak again, Xinyue spoke: "This matter indeed has nothing to do with Zhao Sishan. If you allow me one thing, I will let her leave the palace."
