Chapter 648: Yellow Sparrow
Li Jing was taken aback.
Although Lin Yijie sat on the kang and did not get up, holding the teacup and gently blowing the tea foam, she also wrinkled her brows, squinting at this Huai mother, only to see that her eyebrows and eyes were calculating, I am afraid that it is not easy to deal with.
Lin Yijie beat a drum in her heart, originally because Qiu Ju reprimanded Li Jing in front of a group of ladies and foreign officials, Li Jing was annoyed and ashamed, coupled with her own instigation, she made this plan and wanted to put Qiu Ju to death.
Lin Yijie also asked Li Jing carefully at that time, Li Jing is in charge of affairs in the palace these days, she is familiar with people, and she knows the big and small things in the palace clearly, plus Lin Yijie is giving advice on the side, but in half a day, it has become a thing.
Li Jing didn't know that she was scared afterwards, so she had to pull herself over to sit down, one was bold, and the other was that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and she was here, even if Li Jing was implicated, Lin Zhixuan would not be able to fall in front of her.
Lin Yijie originally felt that this matter was foolproof, but she never thought that these two little girls were so stupid, and they had such a clever mother.
Lin Yijie turned her mind, Huai's mother had already begun to cry to Li Jing, begging Li Jing to save her two daughters, and said that the two had been kneeling in Xijin Zhai for a long time.
Li Jingqiang calmed down and said: "This is a matter in the princess's house, where can I speak, my mother asks for mercy, and I should go to the princess to cry." ”
Huai's mother wiped the tears on her face and said, "Does Niangniang really want the old slave to go to the princess Niangniang to intercede? If you want the princess to be gracious, the old slave must have to confess something in order to exonerate my two uncompetitive girls. ”
Although Li Jing's face remained unchanged, she was already a little panicked in her heart. At this time, he didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about something, but in fact, he didn't have any idea in his heart.
Lin Yijie opened her mouth and said: "Look at this, my mother seems to know something, so why don't you hurry up and talk to the princess and confess to the commander, so that my mother's two daughters can also be saved." Isn't it the best of both worlds, what are you still making trouble here with the side concubine?"
Li Jing sat down on the kang again, drank tea and suppressed the shock, fortunately, Yijie was here, otherwise, she would really mess with herself. After all, it was Lin Yijie's person who instructed Huai's mother in this matter, and said that she went on Qiu's order. Lin Yijie's people are outsiders no matter what, and they can't find Li Jing's head.
This matter has nothing to do with herself, Li Jing has strengthened this belief, but she never imagined how Huai's mother found her.
Huai's mother glanced at Lin Yijie, who suddenly interjected, she obviously knew the ins and outs of this matter in her words, and she was by Li Jing's side at the moment, obviously a member of her own family. Some words Huai's mother no longer scruples, so she simply said in front of Lin Yijie: "The old slave has been in the palace for more than 20 years, although the palace has a big business and many slaves, the old slave may not be able to understand everything, but since Mrs. Qiu entered the mansion, there are only a few people who have followed and served.
For such an important matter, Mrs. Qiu did not send her own henchmen to tell me, but a little girl that an old slave had never seen, but I was afraid that with Mrs. Qiu's net worth, she would not be able to handle such people. Besides, the old slave and Mrs. Qiu are also old acquaintances, what kind of person Mrs. Qiu is, the old slave knows in his heart, such a good plan, Mrs. Qiu doesn't have the talent to come up with it. ”
Li Jing didn't look at it, Lin Yijie looked at Li Jing's appearance, and gradually felt in her heart that she was not a person who could make things happen. At this moment, she could only try her best to cover up the past for her, so she only looked at Huai's mother coldly and said: "So what? What does this have to do with Concubine Li? Mother just needs to tell the princess what she heard and saw truthfully, as for what happened, she has her own princess Niangniang's investigation and decision, and she doesn't need her mother to bother here." ”
Huai's mother smiled when she heard this: "Actually, Madame also knows that even if you don't have to report it to the old slave, a smart person like the princess Niangniang naturally has a guess in her heart, but she just lacks a person to testify." There is nothing to check and the old slave testifies that Mrs. Qiu is the testimony, and the testimony is naturally the same for others, if it really points to the princess's heart, maybe, the princess will not investigate. ”
Li Jing and Lin Yijie were a little panicked, the people in the palace were shrewd one by one, this time it was not that they calculated Qiu Ju, but they were given the handle by this old mother, but Lin Yijie really didn't know what this Huai mother wanted.
Xijin Zhai was full of warmth, and Wei Mingxu was talking to Lin Zhixuan about the things inside and outside the capital in the past few days: "A few days ago, smallpox was found in the Northeast and Shanxi. It's just that the distance is still far away, and it shouldn't be able to affect the capital for a while, but you have to be a little more vigilant, after all, the ninth sister is still young. Wei Mingxu still had some worry in his words.
Lin Zhixuan also nodded again and again, and while instructing people to set the meal, she said: "What about Fu Weige? I will go to Prince Zhuang's Mansion tomorrow and ask Qin Dai to write a letter, please come back for a trip." ”
The ninth sister was a little humming, threw the puppet Wei Mingxu gave her casually, and stretched out her hand towards Lin Zhixuan and struggled, the nurse said that she was hungry, took it from Wei Mingxu's hand, and carried her to the inner room to feed.
Wei Mingxu had to come out to be free, and then said to Lin Zhixuan: "I heard Ying Xiang say today that I have already told Qin Dai about a family affair, and I plan to get married in the spring next year." If you want to go tomorrow, you can also take care to bring something with you. ”
Lin Zhixuan listened to what Wei Mingxu said, as if she had already made up her mind, but: "Qin Dai himself can do it?"
Wei Mingxu had already sat down at the dinner table, and was very surprised when he heard this: "This marriage event, how can there be any reason why he himself does not allow it?"
Lin Zhixuan listened to Wei Mingxu's words, but she didn't think much about this matter in her heart, and Lin Zhixuan couldn't grasp Wei Qindai's temperament.
Lin Zhixuan was hesitating, the maid outside had already set the meal, and Dongmei hesitated to speak in front of Lin Zhixuan several times, after all, Wei Mingxu was still here.
Lin Zhixuan saw the clue, called Dongmei to change her clothes, took off the hairpin ring, and said that her head was very heavy, so let Wei Mingxu eat first.
Wei Mingxu looked at Lin Zhixuan and the girl below to have something to say, so he only nodded, but did not go to eat immediately, but took the ninth sister to the west room, and now the empress dowager rewarded the ninth sister with some gadgets, Wei Mingxu went to show it to the ninth sister.
Lin Zhixuan and Dongmei went to the east for a while, and while listening to the ninth sister and Wei Mingxu giggling happily over there, a little smile appeared on their faces, and then they asked Dongmei: "What's wrong?"
Dongmei whispered in Lin Zhixuan's ear: "Hua Er Cao'er's old son came to confess, saying that she instigated Hua Er Cao'er to do this, and said that there were others behind her to instigate. ”
Lin Zhixuan twisted her eyebrows and glanced out the window, it was snowing heavily, and the two little girls were actually trying to protect their mother, which was understandable, and if she knelt down again, she was afraid that she would freeze to death, she just wanted a small punishment and a big commandment, and she didn't want to take the lives of those two girls seriously.
said to Dongmei: "Let the two of them and the old woman be locked in the ear room separately, and they are not allowed to see each other, and you will interrogate them." ”
Dongmei bowed down and wanted to serve Lin Zhixuan to go out to have dinner with Wei Mingxu first, but Lin Zhixuan asked more: "Is Qiu Ju awake?"
