Chapter 381 Rumors
At this moment, Xiao Xia is holding hot tea and serving beside Rubi, smiling flatteringly.
"Your Majesty, the servant girl said something wrong today, but luckily we didn't go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning today. Today...the Empress Dowager is not in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, but went to the Imperial Study."
Rubi's eyebrows were light, but she raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Go to the imperial study?"
Xiao Xia nodded, "Yes, empress, empress dowager is concerned about His Majesty's dragon body, so she personally sent mung bean soup to clear away heat and relieve summer heat."
"Who knows, I just happened to meet General Xiao..."
Rupin's eyes paused, she didn't say anything, and listened quietly.
Xiao Xia continued: "The Empress Dowager sees that Lord Xiao has never been married, so she thinks of finding a good marriage for General Xiao just in front of His Majesty."
Rupin's heart tightened, and her breath was not stable.
"The queen mother originally liked the eldest daughter of the servant of the household department, or the second daughter of Lord Yan. The appearance, family background and character of these two young ladies are all first-class."
That time when Rubi went out of the palace late at night, Xiao Xia was by her side, although Rubi didn't tell her about Xiao Nanchen.
But she could vaguely feel it.
While talking now, his eyes are fixed on Rupin's reaction.
This time, Rupin's eyebrows were light, as if she was listening to a stranger's gossip, and she didn't respond at all.
At this time, Xiao Xia couldn't help but guess whether their mother lost her memory after waking up.
Xiao Xia regained her composure, and then continued: "But Lord Xiao refused, but ah, the Empress Dowager gave General Xiao two first-class maids as roommates."
After Rupin heard this, her heart ached and numb, but she only hummed lightly on her face.
Left and right Xiao Nanchen will get married in the end, and there will be beautiful women by his side.
Just like Xiaoxia said, these two women are good, although Rubi's heart hurts, she is also thinking about which of these two women's temperament is more suitable for brother Chen.
She hoped that Brother Chen had a good life.
—
Qingyu and Hongyu lived in Xiao's mansion full of anticipation, bathed and changed that night and waited for Xiao Nanchen to come over.
You know, there are countless women in the capital who want to marry this hero who protects their family and country.
But now, they can not only accompany Xiao Nanchen day and night, but also serve him by his side.
Qingyu and Hongyu were extremely proud.
Even if those people are the noble daughters in the capital, so what.
Didn't they also fail to get what they thought about day and night?
But their sisters can accompany the man they miss day and night.
But Qingyu and Hongyu didn't get complacent for too long.
Because when Xiao Nanchen came back, he didn't come to their house, but directly went back to the main house, and the person serving there was actually that Ziyun who didn't even have a name.
Qingyu and Hongyu were so angry that they couldn't sleep.
Fortunately, Ziyun didn't stay inside all the time, and went back to her room at the second watch.
Qingyu and Hongyu didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore, they lay down for a while and finally fell asleep.
—
Although Qingyu and Hongyu couldn't enjoy themselves at night, being able to serve Xiao Nanchen was enough to make them extremely proud in front of others.
As soon as this man was proud, he forgot his appearance, and the two of them told about Xiao Nanchen's rejection of the second daughter of Lord Yan and the eldest daughter of the household servant, and welcoming them into the mansion.
At this moment, the capital is also buzzing because of this incident.
And because it was rumored in the capital that there was only a brothel girl serving in Xiao Nanchen's room.
Everyone guessed wildly that General Xiao just didn't love the daughter of a noble family, but only loved the woman in Xiajiulu.
Some obscene and disgusting people speculate further.
Such a woman is lowly, and she doesn't have as many affairs in the house as the daughter of a wealthy family, so she can have fun!
On the other hand, the minister of the household department and Duke Yan Guo were very angry, they didn't care what happened.
But the rumors that are spreading in the capital now make them feel like they are gnawing at their throats, as if they are saying that their daughters are not as good as those low-class women!
Xiao Nanchen didn't care about these things.
He has been in the army all year round, and the affairs in the army are much simpler. Whoever has the ability to win the battle and make military exploits can go up.
And these gossips can't affect him.
The raging rumors also spread into the harem.
Rupin frowned, if this matter is not clarified, this powerful family in the capital might not marry their daughter to Xiao Nanchen again.
Just when Rupin was worrying about this matter, another matter was like a bomb, which shocked the superficial calm of the capital.
Rubi was taking a walk in the imperial garden at the moment and just came back when she saw that the food delivery person had already arrived.
In the house, I took out the meals in the food box one by one and put them on the table.
Xiaoxia supported Rupin, Yulan followed behind the two of them, and there were voices in the room.
The footsteps of the three stopped outside the house almost subconsciously.
"Recent incidents followed one after another, all about General Xiao."
"What's the matter? I'm tired of hearing it. Isn't it that the Empress Dowager gave the general two housemaids, but rejected the matter of Yan Guogong's daughter?"
"There is one more thing. I guessed that you must have never heard of it. Yes, it's about Empress Rubi and General Xiao..."
The little eunuch was taken aback and hurriedly looked around.
"What? You, don't talk nonsense, you will kill me if you don't want to."
This is in Rupin's palace, if such nonsense is heard, she will be beaten to death with a stick.
The other little eunuchs felt that he was making a fuss.
"What are you afraid of? I just asked the little maid who brought us in, and said that the concubine has gone for a walk at this moment, and she will definitely not come back in a while."
"Then, tell me, what's going on?"
Upon hearing that Rupin had gone for a walk, the little eunuch couldn't help asking curiously.
The man told the story.
"They said that General Xiao had an old relationship with Empress Rupin before."
"real or fake?!"
"I guess it's [-]% true. Think about it, General Xiao has never married, and Rubi, who asked to accompany the Queen Mother to the temple for three years, is it because she doesn't want to go to bed?
Besides, it was rumored before that the concubine did not enter the palace voluntarily, but was sent in by Mrs. Cai who was stunned and tied up in a sedan chair. "
All these things, connected together at this moment, seem to make sense.
And not long ago, Taihou wanted to give him a marriage, but General Xiao refused again, which was nothing at all.
Now that they are connected again, it makes people feel that Xiao Nanchen has no more love for Concubine Ru.
This is still being guarded foolishly.
The two young eunuchs started discussing again, arguing whether General Xiao is better or His Majesty is better.
But they hadn't come to a conclusion yet, they packed up the empty food boxes, and as soon as they walked out, they were startled by three people standing outside the room.
