Chapter 11 Murderous Opportunities
The scorching sun continued to send heat to people, and the shade of the trees in Yuqi Palace could not stop the heat at all, and the flowers in the yard were all sunburned.
With the hot weather of the sun, Mo Chenghuan always got up early, and asked Ning Xiang to move the bamboo chair to the shade of the tree when he had nothing to do, and he couldn't sleep with his eyes closed, so he listened to the cicadas and calmed his heart down little by little.
After noon, Mo Chenghuan suddenly remembered that today was the day when the list of attendants was announced, and he opened his eyes faintly and asked Jin Su, who was shaking a fan for her: "Today, isn't it a good day for the list to be announced? Why is there no news from this inner prison?
"No, but those who have asked, and they will be back for a while, and they must be coming back soon," Jin Su replied softly, shaking his fan intently.
After an hour, Ning Xiang came back, and he also had a little eunuch with him-Fu Yuheng, Qi Yuxuan had something to do with this little eunuch, and Mo Chenghuan also recognized him.
"The slave has seen Mo Miaoren," Fu Yuheng smiled cheerfully, with a burst of spring flowers in his eyebrows and eyes, and when he saw Mo Chenghuan, he kowtowed in a proper manner.
"Get up. Mo Chenghuan smiled kindly, and his charming eyes were bent into a pair of first quarter moons, which showed how much he loved this little eunuch.
"Miaoren, this is the list that came out today," Fu Yuheng lowered his head and presented the list to Mo Chenghuan with both hands.
Mo Chenghuan gave Jin Su a look, Jin Su immediately turned around and went into the house to get it, and handed a small bag of pearl jade to Fu Yuheng.
Fu Yuheng smiled brighter when he saw it, and hurriedly kowtowed again, thanked him repeatedly, and then slowly withdrew.
"Does the master like this little henchman?" Ning Xiang has been by Mo Chenghuan's side for many years, and she has a certain understanding of Mo Chenghuan's temperament.
"Smart people like everyone, oh, by the way, Jinsu, you go and inquire about the news of Hexiu Garden today, this summer lotus banquet is approaching, there must be some different movements, "This is really everything rushed together, could it be that someone specially arranged it?"
"I went over this morning, Aunt Qingyu said that Chu Luoluo should have a big move when he came in, and Chu Luoluo has been very suspicious in recent days," Jin Su took two steps forward and told Mo Chenghuan the truth about everything he knew.
"Not bad. Mo Chenghuan was very satisfied with Jin Su's just right self-assertion, nodded and gave Jin Su an approving look.
"It's good that the master doesn't think I'm making my own decisions. Jin Su gave Mo Chenghuan a thank you gift with a little panic, and said flatteredly.
"No, it's good that you know how to control the proportions," Mo Chenghuan didn't care, but he had secretly measured it in his heart, but it was true that Jinsu's actions this time did not violate her bottom line, otherwise Jinsu's step would push her into a place of no return.
Mo Chenghuan thought for a while and then continued to order: "Jinsu, you go to Hexiu Garden again tonight, say hello to Lin Miao's two aunts, and say that the time has come." ”
"Got it," Jin Su replied, shaking his fan.
"Also, Ning Xiang, you can go to Huixin Garden later, and tell Qi Yu to do it now if you want to save people, otherwise it will be too late," Although the palace seems to be calm at this time, many things are already too late once you notice it.
"Okay, I'll go over now," you have to take the lead in everything you do in this unpredictable palace, otherwise you won't know what kind of changes will happen when it's too late.
"En," Mo Chenghuan didn't raise his eyes, and a vague syllable should come out of his mouth.
Mo Chenghuan looked at the list casually, and seeing the arrangement on the list, the corners of Mo Chenghuan's mouth hooked a smile that was difficult to guess.
Mo Chenghuan was thinking in her heart that this list should be arranged by the emperor, otherwise how could she be so in line with her own wishes, and she would be arranged to be the eighth place, which gave her enough time to think about how she should shirk this waiting.
At night, according to the list, this first day is Bian Yiyan, not long after dinner, the Holy Will Cheng'en sedan chair passed by Qi Yuxuan, the four corners of the Holy Will Cheng'en sedan chair are hung with auspicious five-pointed silver bells, the silver bells are crisp and pleasant, with the sedan body swinging out the sound of "bell bell", especially in the night when few people move around, it is particularly clear, Mo Chenghuan closed the door, and the bell can also be heard.
This holy will sedan chair gracefully played back and forth in front of Qi Yuxuan, and took this Bian Yiyan to Chaoyan Palace. Chaoyan Palace, the representative place of the emperor's grace at the beginning of the past dynasties, the most magnificent palace in the nine palaces, since the opening of Canglei, how many favored concubines, are here to really entrust their lives to the kings of the past dynasties.
On the first day, Bian Yiyan inherited the blessing of the saint, just like Qi Yu, moved out of the Yuqi Palace on the same day, moved into Huixin Garden, and promoted a grade as a companion, but there was no title, although it was at the same level, but there was a big gap between the title and the untitled, and the emperor also let him live with Qi Yu, and I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.
Bian Yiyan was happy, not only promoted to the rank, but also stayed away from the cold ghost place of this Yuqi Palace, but the emperor was sad, I heard that the autumn Shengxi was very dissatisfied with the emperor's promotion to Bian Yiyan's rank, the emperor in order to coax this Qiu Shengxi, almost lowered Bian Yiyan's rank, fortunately, this Sima Yi arrived in time and persuaded this Qiu Shengxi, Bian Yiyan only kept the position of his companion.
Bian Yiyan's companion position was kept, but Zheng Linglan also suffered on the second day, because the emperor also made a guarantee in order to coax this autumn Shengxi, and when he was fortunate enough to be fortunate again, these beauties would not be immediately sealed by Jin.
The people who heard this interesting story of the palace couldn't help but shake their heads, and sighed gloomily in their hearts: With such a mediocre monarch, it is strange that the thunder does not collapse.
can be said to be bitter, this Zheng Linglan is far less than Lu Huiyan on the third day, if you want to say why Lu Huiyan is bitter, it has to be traced back to the Lixue banquet a few months ago, it is precisely because Lu Huiyan had a big trouble during the Lixue banquet, and only this time, Lu Huiyan made the emperor completely remember Lu Huiyan.
I remember it, but unfortunately it's not a good thing, in the words that came out of the inner guard: When the emperor heard Lu Huiyan's name, he was so angry that he even overturned the ginseng soup that Qiu Shengxi personally boiled.
This night, the sedan chair of the Holy Will Cheng'en never entered the Yuqi Palace again, and the next day came the news that the Holy Lord was staying overnight in the autumn Shengxi.
came and went, rejoiced Qiu Shengxi, saddened Lu Huiyan, and saddened all the wonderful people who were behind Lu Huiyan on the list, the emperor was disgusted with this Lu Huiyan, and also angered the remaining wonderful people, and the sentence "I am not feeling well today" postponed the matter of this wonderful person's sleep endlessly.
The matter of this wonderful man's sleep has not been settled, and the matter of the Hexiu Garden has been in a uproar again, and it is said that the Hexiu Garden is haunted, which scared a show girl in the East Courtyard crazy.
When Mo Chenghuan heard the news, he was happy, and sure enough, this Chu Luoluo couldn't hold her breath, but fortunately, she had already made arrangements.
Mo Chenghuan specially asked Jin Su to inquire about the frightened show girl, and the result was not what Mo Chenghuan expected, the show girl danced well and was a show girl who was favored by Du Xinggong.
Another day passed, another show girl was scared sick, and the people who had accidents for two consecutive days were all talented show girls, which couldn't help but make people feel uneasy, no one knew who the next target of the "ghost" was, and everyone was in danger for a while.
According to the situation, Hexiuyuan reported to the Criminal Procuratorate of the palace, but the Criminal Procuratorate did not even submit it to the Shengshang, so he perfunctory the past with one sentence: "The Shengshang is unwell, so it is not good to worry about such a trivial matter." Then he sent a few little eunuchs over to take a look at it as if he was going through the motions, and he did it hastily, everyone who saw it knew that it was clear that someone above wanted to cover up this matter, which couldn't help but make people chill: in the end, ordinary show girls are different from the show girls valued by the officials, if something happens to a powerful show girl like Mo Chenghuan, these people will definitely not sit idly by.
This Hexiu Garden is restless, and Zhijing Palace is not in peace, Lu Huiyan has been making trouble day and night since he was rejected by Huang Lied, and the people in the two palaces around him were upset for two whole days.
You wonderful people are also a lot of dissatisfaction with Lu Huiyan, originally it seems that she doesn't care about Lu Huiyan's disappointment of the sleeping list because of her pitiful points, she actually doesn't know how to restrain and make everyone unhappy, thinking that if it weren't for the face of her father Lu Heng, they would definitely join forces to shut up this Lu Huiyan forever.
This matter is only beneficial and harmless to Mo Chenghuan, so he can't understand the hatred of other wonderful people for Lu Huiyan, and Mo Chenghuan is too late to be grateful to Lu Huiyan, where does the hatred come from.
On this day, as soon as noon passed, Qi Yuxuan came to an unwelcome guest-Qiu Yichen, Mo Chenghuan was very dissatisfied with Qiu Yichen's arrival, although the relationship between this doctor and the beauties was public, but Qiu Yichen's uninvited behavior would make others think that she would make a big move, so as to focus on her, which she did not want to see.
"Why are you here to find me?" Mo Chenghuan didn't bother to be polite to him, if it weren't for the fact that he was still useful, Mo Chenghuan wouldn't even want to give him a sip of tea.
"Lou Yuyu has also entered the palace, do you know?" Qiu Yichen looked nervous, admittedly afraid of Lou Yuyu.
"Yes. Mo Chenghuan's face did not change his indifferent expression, obviously not interested in this topic.
"Then why are you still so indifferent?!" Qiu Yichen suddenly slapped the case and shouted at Mo Chenghuan with an open voice.
"I'm afraid that Lou Yuyu's person is you and not me, why should I be nervous? My father asked you to enter the palace to let you assist me, not to let me assist you, Qiu Yichen, don't forget who is the master between you and me!" Mo Chenghuan got up with a shallow smile, raised his eyes, and the sharp edge in his eyes turned around, and the awe-inspiring majesty pressed Qiu Yichen directly through his cold gaze.
Qiu Yichen was so frightened by Mo Chenghuan's majesty that his legs fell to the ground with weak legs.
"Let's go, Lou Yuyu can't move yet, if you are not satisfied with my arrangement, you can do it yourself, as long as you have any ability!" Mo Chenghuan sat down slowly after speaking, twisted the teacup gracefully and elegantly, and took a sip.
Qiu Yichen was so frightened that he quickly got up and left in fear.
"Master, how could you choose to enter the palace like this in the first place?" Qiu Yichen's every move was seen in his eyes, and a person like Qiu Yichen was not useful at all.
"Forget it, just take it as a look, I didn't count him as part of the palace when I chose him to enter the palace, and now I should use it to confuse the enemy," Mo Chenghuan sneered, lowered his eyes, and drank tea calmly.
Suddenly, I don't know where a burst of fragrance wafted from, I lived in Yuqi Palace for half a year, and it was the first time I smelled such a strange fragrance, so I asked casually: "What kind of fragrance is Jinsu, why has he never smelled it?"
This fragrance is like incense but not incense, like a flower but not a flower is very strange.
"I don't know, it's the first time I've smelled it in so many years," Jin Su thought that this fragrance must be a rare thing.
Mo Chenghuan yawned faintly, got up and said, "I'm a little tired, help me into the house to sleep for a while." ”
