Chapter 315: Threat

"Wait!" Hua Lianyue hurriedly stopped the little eunuch who wanted to reach out to grab Luo Xia, and frowned: "Do you have a bad memory? I told you before that it was a long-haired white cat playing with this parrot in its mouth. If you want to help it get revenge, just go to the white cat, what are you stopping us from?"

The little eunuch saw that she was aggressive, and he had already taken two steps back unconsciously. But when he lowered his head and looked at the parrot in his hand, he thought that he might die worse than it, and his heart trembled.

He had to bite the bullet and say, "Do you say that the white cat bit it, the white cat bitten it?" I only know that it was bitten to death by a cat, and there is no other cat in this vicinity except the one she was holding in her arms, who else did not bite to death?"

After the little eunuch finished speaking, he quietly glanced at his companions beside him. Someone immediately understood, and stepped forward to grab the neck of the yellow civet cat in Luoxia's arms.

Luo Xia hurriedly hugged the yellow civet cat in her arms and screamed: "Obviously, you yourself didn't take a good look at the parrot, so you relied on people." Who in the palace doesn't know that this yellow civet cat raised by our mother has always been fed only cooked meat, and its temperament is extremely docile, and it will never attack other small animals. And it came out of the Fuxi Hall with me, and it has been held by me all the time, and its claws have not even touched the ground, so why should it be charged by you, I am not convinced. ”

The little eunuch said with a smile: "Luoxia, you can't say these things to us, if you have any wrongs, just go to the Queen Mother to complain!"

Hearing the little eunuch mention the Queen Mother, Luo Xia obviously flinched. Hua Lianyue suddenly remembered that the Queen Mother didn't want to see Concubine Shu back then, could it be that after so many years, the Queen Mother was still stubborn and didn't want to see Concubine Shu, so she didn't even like the people in her palace?

At the moment when Hua Lianyue was thinking, the little eunuch had already reached out and grabbed the neck of the yellow civet cat, but the cat was raised by the concubine to be oily and slippery, and before the little eunuch could grasp it, Luo Xia twisted her body flexibly and dodged.

The little eunuch fell short twice, and his face was not very good-looking. He couldn't help but threaten: "Luoxia, I advise you not to be stubborn, we can't help ourselves." It is a fact that the parrot was bitten to death by a cat, and it is also a fact that only the cat in your Fuxi Hall is here.

Now I'm just taking the cat, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will find out and send guards in anger, but I want to take people to pay for this parrot!"

"Hugh is going to scare me with words!" Luo Xia looked excited, her eyes shining like two strange flames. She sneered again and again: "Obviously, it's not just our mother who has cats in this palace, three days ago, Zhen Zhaoyi's mother's brother entered the palace, didn't he bring a long-haired white cat to the Nine Emperor Princes? ”

After a pause, she pouted again, and said very quickly: "Isn't it just that the Nine Emperor Princes have won the emperor's favor, and Zhen Zhaoyi has the right to help the queen associate with the six palaces." If you don't dare to offend her, you will use me as a target!"

Luo Xia's teeth were sharp, and the little eunuchs couldn't hold their faces when they were robbed by her, and they were red and white for a while.

Only then did Hua Lianyue know that the owner of the long-haired white cat was not small, and these eunuchs did not dare to offend, and they did not want to be severely punished by the Queen Mother after going back, so they wanted to take the relatively weak Luoxia and the lazy yellow civet cat to atone. It seems that they are really not afraid of offending the people of Fuxi Palace!

Thinking of this, Hua Lianyue couldn't help but take a deep breath: these people are really good at pinching soft persimmons.

The little eunuch who was holding the parrot's corpse became more and more annoyed, he sharpened his throat, snorted coldly, and said, "Luoxia, you, a dead girl, I'm afraid that you don't want your tongue anymore, and you dare to arrange Zhen Zhaoyi." Let me tell you, don't say that you are just a little palace maid, with Zhen Zhaoyi's current favor, even if your master is afraid, he will not dare to offend rashly. Don't forget one more thing, our Queen Mother's Cining Palace, your master has never stepped into it, and your cat wants to be the first to step in and make trouble......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a crisp sound of "pop", and Hua Lianyue slapped him in the face. She started quickly and hatefully, and beat the little eunuch blindfolded, and the parrot corpse in her hand fell to the ground with a click.

Hua Lianyue put her red palm behind her back and sneered: "What a bold minion, you actually dare to commit a crime." No matter how the master of Fuxi Hall is, it will not be your turn to be a slave at will. ”,

"You ......" The little eunuch covered his aching and numb cheeks, and his eyes were blazing as he stared at Hua Lianyue. Although Hua Lianyue's face was very unfamiliar to him, looking at Hua Lianyue's dress, he knew that it must be the wife of the virtuous prince outside.

When it came to the cold and virtuous prince, the little eunuch was still worried in his heart, and of course he didn't dare to offend Hua Lianyue on the bright side. But he was unwilling to suffer this in vain, his eyes turned, and the cold light naturally fell on Luoxia.

I saw him cover his face and said viciously to Luo Xia: "You have to think about it." If you refuse to hand over this animal to your fate today, don't blame the wait, I will sue you in front of the Queen Mother. When the time comes, I'm afraid that your masters will follow suit. ”

The north wind is bleak, and the fallen leaves are fluttering! Luoxia stood against the wind and did not speak for a long time, but a thin cold sweat broke out in the palm of the hand holding the yellow civet cat. She was reluctant to have the yellow civet cat in her arms, and of course she was even more reluctant to be trampled by the Queen Mother. After hesitating, she gradually let go of the hand holding the yellow civet cat.

The tanuki seemed to sense that something was wrong, and it arched itself in Luoxia's arms, meowing uneasily, and arching Luoxia's palm with its fluffy round head. Feeling the softness of the palms of her hands, almost instantly, Luoxia's aggrieved tears fell down in a flutter.

The little eunuch saw that she had signs of compromise, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out to catch the yellow civet cat that was gradually fried.

Seeing that his yellow civet cat was about to fall into his hands, he stretched out a hand and snatched the yellow civet cat. I saw Hua Lianyue gently touch the head of the yellow civet cat, and said with a smile: "Since I can't get along with you, I will simply go to Cining Palace in person and explain this matter clearly." Presumably, the Queen Mother Bodhisattva will definitely not harm a little life. ”

The little eunuch's expression was obviously stagnant, and then he said suspiciously: "Madame, I'm afraid I don't know! Although our Queen Mother is a bodhisattva, she has never liked the people of Fuxi Palace. If you are so strong, I am afraid that you will attract the disgust of the Queen Mother. ”

Hua Lianyue sneered, and said coldly: "Back then, I lived in Cining Palace, and when I was very bored, I plucked all the hairs on the tails of the two peacocks raised by the Queen Mother, and I didn't see the Queen Mother shouting and killing unrelentingly. Obviously, a few of you made mistakes yourself, but under the guise of the queen mother, you made a big banner and asked others to help you apologize. There is no such good thing in the world. ”

"Luoxia!" Hua Lianyue suddenly turned her head sideways and called to Luoxia, who was still secretly wiping away her tears.

Luo Xia was stunned, bent her knees and blessed, and said, "What does Madame command?"

Hua Lianyue comforted the uneasy yellow civet cat in her arms, and said slowly: "Let's not rush to Fuxi Palace, go to Cining Palace first, and explain things clearly in front of the Queen Mother." ”

"Yes!" Luo Xia agreed without thinking. But the little eunuchs on the side were startled. They just wanted to bluff Luoxia and make her hand over the ordinary old cat to atone for her crimes. In this way, they don't have to offend Zhen Zhaoyi, nor do they have to be punished by the Queen Mother, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds.

I didn't expect this virtuous lady to be so aggressive, and she refused to back down even a step. And listening to the tone of her words, she and the Queen Mother are still old acquaintances. In this way, their plan is afraid that it will be frustrated.

The little eunuch led by him twitched his cheeks, and then arched his hand to Hua Lianyue, and said with a smile: "Madame, it's our brothers who saw the parrot die and were anxious, so they wanted to catch the cat who caused the accident quickly, so as not to be punished by the queen mother." Since you firmly believe that it was not this yellow civet cat who did it, let's bring this to the Queen Mother, depending on who she wants to trust. Farewell!"

The little eunuch turned around very neatly, and actually strode away with everyone like this.

Hua Lianyue knew that her enmity with them was resolved. There is a saying that you can offend a gentleman, but you must not offend a villain. And these eunuchs are obviously treacherous and changeable villains.

Hua Liyue knew that if she didn't understand this matter today, it would make them afraid. When Liu Hui and himself go out of the palace, Concubine Shu is nothing, this yellow civet cat and the powerless Luoxia are afraid that they will be unlucky.

Thinking of this, Hua Lianyue said to Luoxia: "We can't let them go to the Queen Mother to complain, but they will suffer a dumb loss." You have to think of a way to get to know things thoroughly. ”

She thought that Luoxia would hesitate, after all, the Queen Mother did not wait to see the people who came out of the Fuxi Palace, which was a well-known secret in the palace. Unexpectedly, Luo Xia nodded vigorously and said very seriously: "Madam, what do you want to do, I'll help you!"

......

The Queen Mother, who was half-leaning on the soft collapse, slowly pinching the Buddha beads, and closing her eyes to recuperate, suddenly felt that her eyelids were jumping vigorously, as if something bad was about to happen. At this time, a little palace maid hurriedly walked in and whispered: "Queen Mother, Dezi, they are back." ”

The Queen Mother hurriedly opened her eyes and asked eagerly, "But have you found the baby of the mourning family?"

The little palace maid hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "Looking for a ..... found" The little palace maid said slowly: "It's just that I was seriously injured, and I'm afraid I won't live long." She didn't dare to say that she was dead, so she started vaguely first. Later, I pondered step by step.

With a crisp sound, the crystal clear tourmaline Buddha beads rolled to the ground. The Queen Mother's eyes were gloomy. She slammed the table and scolded angrily: "Who killed the baby of the mourning family, hurry up and bring people up." ”

Outside the warm pavilion, a large area suddenly fell to its knees, and the bloody parrot corpse was placed in the front. Several little eunuchs kowtowed and cried: "The queen mother atons for her sins, the minions deserve to die, the minions deserve to die!"

When the queen mother heard the movement, she hurriedly helped the palace maid to sit up, and said angrily: "Let those dog minions outside roll in and talk!"

The little eunuchs really rolled in with their hands and feet, and the parrot corpse was reverently held in the hands of the eunuchs led by them. Its drooping head, unkempt feathers, and the bloodstains on it all stinged the Queen Mother's eyes.

A palace maid immediately reprimanded in a low voice: "Bold, such a bloody submission, I am not afraid of scaring the Queen Mother, hurry up and take it down!"

"Yes, it was the minions who were negligent, and the Queen Mother atoned for her sins!" Dezi handed the parrot corpse to the little eunuch behind him. The little eunuch was also shrewd, holding the parrot in one hand, and flicking it lightly with the other, and the wide sleeves of his robe immediately covered the parrot's stiff little body.

"Mourning baby!" the Queen Mother called out in distress, and a layer of anger was dyed between her eyebrows and eyes, which were still peaceful in the past. She glared at Dezi and said in a deep voice: "You say, what is going on, why did the baby of the mourning family become like this?"

Dezi kowtowed his head first, and then said with a crying voice: "Back to the Queen Mother's words, when the minions found the baby, it was already dying, and it was left on the grass near the Fuxi Palace, and there were traces of being bitten by a cat on the wings on its neck. ”

When the Queen Mother heard the three words of Fuxi Palace, her brows habitually frowned.

I heard Dezi continue: "The minions have also seen that at that time, Luoxia, the palace maid of the Fuxi Palace, was standing next to her with a yellow civet cat. Although Dezi didn't say it explicitly, the meaning of the words was pointing to Luoxia and Fuxi Palace.

What made him strange was that after the Queen Mother heard the Fuxi Palace, although her eyes were still full of disgust, she did not immediately get angry and let Luo Xia be used to ask for the guilt as he imagined, but her excitement gradually calmed down.

At this time, a palace maid came in with a small tea tray of vermilion lacquer plum blossoms, and a bowl of smoking medicinal juice was resting on the tea tray. The palace maid said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, it's time to drink medicine!"

The Queen Mother nodded, drank the medicine under the service of the palace maid, and took the water to rinse her mouth. Immediately, a palace maid presented a box. The Queen Mother casually picked up a candied cherry and put it in her mouth. The sweet and sour candied fruit quickly drove away the bitter taste of the medicinal juice in her mouth.

Dezi and the rest of the little eunuchs kept kneeling on the ground, watching the Queen Mother slowly drink medicine and rinse her mouth, but they didn't dare to get up.

After eating a candied cherry, the Queen Mother said slowly: "You all go down!"

"What?" Tokuko suspected that something was wrong with her ears.

The Queen Mother glanced at him, accentuated her tone, and continued: "Remember, after you go down, each of you will go and get thirty boards. ”

Dezi was dumbfounded, he looked up at the Queen Mother with a calm face in a daze, racking his brains and couldn't understand why these thirty boards fell on him.

The palace maid on the side saw that they were still stupid, and hurriedly scolded in a low voice: "Foolish things, don't get down and get the board." ”

"Yes!"

No matter how bold Dezi was, he didn't dare to argue in front of the Queen Mother, so he had to lower his eyebrows and retreat.

When Dezi and they retreated, the Queen Mother, who had not spoken out, said hatefully: "Useless things, useless things......" was just scolded in her mouth, and I don't know if it was Dezi and them, or Luoxia of Fuxi Palace, or someone else......
