Chapter 29: A Poisonous Web Falling from the Sky
The days always pass quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Shen Yicen and they have all left for more than half a month, Gu Bingqing and Sikong Shengjia never mentioned the issue of the martial arts cultivation golden order in Sikong Xiao's hand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
They didn't mention it, and Sikong Xiao didn't ask, but she always felt that the beautiful lady had her own plans for this matter.
Thinking of the strong family background of the beautiful mother, Sikong smiled and suddenly understood, maybe the beauty mother has a lot of brands!
Without Qi Muqing blowing up the kitchen every day, the General's Mansion finally quieted down, but Sikong Xiao hasn't slept for a day in the past few days, who let his dear young lady be a humanoid "alarm clock"!
And tomorrow morning, I can get the angry eyes of the little girl behind Sikong Huang, which makes the boring morning a little more interesting.
"Miss, Miss, hurry up, have you forgotten that the fourth prince invited you to watch the concubine selection ceremony with the eldest lady?"
opened his eyes in a daze, and a vague figure appeared in front of him, Sikong Xiao rubbed his eyes, and muttered, "Sister Huang... How did you get so big overnight!"
The corners of Xiao Ye's eyes twitched, and he said helplessly: "Miss, I'm Xiao Ye." ”
"Hmm...?Xiaoye, what are you doing so early?Your young lady, I'm so sleepy..."
Xiao Ye pulled up the quilt on Sikong Xiao's body, and said with a smile: "Miss, you are going to enter the palace today! Xiao Ye is here to help you freshen up!"
An hour later, Sikong Xiao pulled the light pink little skirt embroidered with a white rabbit on his body, with a look of disgust.
I really treat my mother as a child!
Another hour passed, Sikong smiled and looked up at the sky speechlessly, how did he have such good eyesight and pick such a tendon girl...
"Xiao Ye, your young lady, I went to see the concubine selection, and I didn't go to participate in the concubine selection, why did you dress me up so well?"
Dodging Xiao Ye's hand that was about to insert beads into his head, Sikong smiled and looked at himself in the bronze mirror with the corners of his lips twitching.
Xiao Ye grabbed Sikong Xiao unmoved, and while inserting the pink bead flower in his hand into Sikong Xiao's carefully braided bun, he said as a matter of course: "Miss is so cute and beautiful, of course you have to dress up well, so that those women who come to participate in the election will be ashamed of themselves!"
Sikong smiled and twitched the corners of his mouth, "Miss Ben is naturally beautiful, and they don't need to dress up to make them ashamed!"
Xiao Ye didn't seem to hear it, and he couldn't move and took out the rouge given by the emperor and swept it on Sikong Xiao's little face.
"Hey..."Sikong Xiao could only let out a long sigh.
After a long time of tidying up, Sikong Xiao finally got into the soft sedan chair sent by the fourth prince Chen Kuang with Sikong Huang.
The General's Mansion was not far from the palace, but when he arrived at the palace, Sikong Xiao only saw the empty stage.
Isn't it? It's a good concubine selection ceremony that is comparable to the Spring Festival Gala!
"I heard that there is a woman in today's concubine selection ceremony who was favored by the emperor, and she will go to bed directly tonight!"
"Really? How is it possible? This is not in accordance with the rules, is it?"
"It's still fake, I saw it with my own eyes!"
Hearing the discussion of the palace maid walking by, Sikong Xiaoden was dumbfounded.
"It seems that the selection of concubines is over..."Sikong Huang glanced at the empty high platform, turned around and took Sikong Xiao's hand, and smiled when he saw her look of disbelief, "I think we should go back." ”
"Two young ladies, please stay!"
A palace maid dressed in goose yellow palace costume hurriedly ran over, smiled at Sikong and saluted, "The four kings are invited, the two young ladies please go with the slave maid." ”
"Why is the concubine selection ceremony over so quickly?"
"Miss Hui, I heard that the emperor is not very satisfied with this batch of show girls, so it will be over soon. ”
Sikong Xiao and Sikong Huang glanced at each other, and when they were about to leave, a voice happened to come from behind them, "Miss Sikong Xiao, please stay, the third princess wants to invite Miss to visit the Imperial Garden." ”
Sikong Xiao raised her eyebrows, she is so popular today! Chen Yayao? Isn't it the princess who snatched her osmanthus cake on the street, why did she suddenly remember to invite herself to visit the garden?
Hehe, is it possible that you want to make a false accusation like in the TV series, what kind of general's mansion lady angrily pushed a certain concubine into the water without knowing the measure, and what kind of mistake made a certain pregnant concubine die twice...
Tsk, I really didn't expect that I would one day be involved in this kind of court bloody plot.
Sikong Huang frowned, looked at Sikong Xiao with some concern, and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, I'll go with you." ”
"What?" Sikong smiled, the corners of his lips curled, raised his eyebrows and looked at Sikong Huang, and said, "Are you still afraid that I will be bullied?"
"Rest assured... Isn't she just a princess! I can handle it, Sister Huang, you go to find Chen Kuang first, and I'll go back when I go. ”
"Smile, be careful. Sikong Huang looked at Sikong and smiled worriedly, "I always feel weird in my heart, didn't you say that you had a holiday with the princess before?" this time..."
Sikong smiled and said without raising his eyes: "Weird? I guess it's because I want to meet that annoying ghost Chen Kuang! Okay, I'm leaving, otherwise that tsundere little princess will blow up again..."
"Laugh and laugh..."
Seeing that it was getting more and more remote, and there were fewer and fewer people, Sikong Xiao was suspicious, and stepped forward to stop the maidservant, "Where are you going to take me? Where is the princess?"
The maid bowed her head and whispered, "The time for another stick of incense is coming, and the princess is still waiting for the young lady." ”
I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say what was weird, Sikong Xiao frowned and finally let go of his hand.
"Miss Sikong, please go this way. ”
The path twisted and looped, and the low-eyed slave walked unhurriedly, although Sikong Xiao didn't say anything, but he was keenly aware of a chill permeating from the surroundings.
Just as the servant girl was about to step into the rockery, Sikong Xiao stopped.
The slave maid trembled slightly, turned her head and looked at Sikong Xiao cautiously, with a hint of a smile on her face, "Miss, it's just ahead, please come with the slave maid!" ”
"Heh...," Sikong grinned, "Say, what is the purpose of you leading me here, and who instructed you?"
Hearing Sikong Xiao say this, the slave maid was shocked, turned around and didn't say a word, and ran away!
With a quick step, Sikong Xiao stepped sideways on the rocks on the side, and when he flipped into the air with a borrowed force, and fell to the ground gently, he couldn't help but sigh, pestering his father to teach his martial arts and his own ability assistance, just like the legendary immortals!
"What are you running..."
Before he finished speaking, Sikong Xiao only felt that the top of his head was dark, and in an instant, a large net fell from the sky!
When I looked up, I saw that there were still dense needles standing on the net, and looking at the black green of the needles, it was obvious that they had been fed with poison!
Tsk, it seems that I made a big mistake in estimating... I thought it was those so-called old court dramas, but I didn't expect it to be so ruthless as soon as it came up.
