208. Confession

Chanyi smiled and glanced lightly at the sweat towel she was holding in her hand.

Duchess Ning Guo must have thought that she had won the ticket, but unfortunately she didn't know that if she didn't deliberately give Xian Yi this sweat towel, she was afraid that if Xian Yi was wrapped around it for a year, she wouldn't care about Xian Yi.

Since you want to calculate the Xia family, don't blame her for being ruthless, Ning Guogong's mansion was originally prosperous, but it was a pity that she was burdened by such a stupid woman, and now that the prince has not fallen, he will be taken down as a bird, I don't know if Ning Guogong will be angry if he knows about this qiē.

She said softly: "This sweat towel is not embroidered, just let the third prince take out his sweat towel and compare it." ”

Duchess Ning Guo was stunned for a moment, could it be that there is an identical one on the three princes?

The Empress Dowager glanced at the palace people, who nodded and went to Shangwen Pavilion.

Chu Shaoyuan studied literature in the morning and martial arts in the afternoon, and was listening to Xie Yanning's lecture with "Zuo Chuan" in his hand at this time, when the palace people suddenly called, he frowned, and said to Xie Kuning: "Master Xie, wait a while, I'll go back." ”

Xie Yanning naturally didn't have any opinions, nodded at him, and just rested for a while.

Chu Shaoyuan got up and tied the cloak that Chan Yi made for him, and strode to Ci'an Palace.

In Ci'an Palace, Mrs. Xia had a faint smile on her face and said homely: "...... Although the children in the family are small, they each have their own preferences, Brother Chen loves plum blossoms, and the yard where he lives is next to the plum forest, and the clothes he wears are often with plum blossoms, and even the words in the table have to bring a plum, but Brother Che prefers bamboo, although it is not like Brother Chen, but he also likes to wear bamboo green from time to time, and the wolf is also carved with bamboo leaves, Yi Geer, oh, it's time to change his name to the Three Princes, this child has liked moire style things since he was a child, and the sweat towel sachet used to eat is a moire style ......"

A few words clearly explain the preferences of the first few half-eldest gentlemen in the family, and outsiders can also hear it clearly.

Old Madam Xia said as she spoke, and then talked about Chan Yi: "...... When I was a child, Sister Chan was not sensible, she always had to rob a few brothers' things, and she didn't give it, and once she robbed the three princes' new sachets, the three princes were young at that time, and she didn't dare to argue when she robbed them, and I saw a reprimand, maybe the training was too much, and then I never saw her use something with a cloud pattern. ”

This is explaining to the Queen Mother that Xia Chanyi doesn't need cloud patterns when she is young, and this is well known to everyone in the Xia family, so if she said that the sweat towel was given to Gu Yi, it is definitely fake.

Duchess Ning Guo glanced at Xia Chanyi, who was low-browed, and somehow, she could see some mockery on that respectful face, and the hand hidden in her sleeve was instantly clenched tightly, she only felt that her heart was beating fast, as if she was about to rush to her throat, and she couldn't sit still.

Chu Shaoyuan entered Ci'an Palace, and at a glance he saw Chan Yi standing beside Old Madam Xia, her eyes fell on the gauze around her neck, her heart suddenly hurt, her brows furrowed, and then she relaxed her eyebrows, and stepped forward to ask for peace: "Grandson has seen the imperial grandmother, the queen mother, and Concubine Zhuang." ”

Duchess Ning Guo fell on Chu Shaoyuan at a glance, her eyes widened instantly, and the black feather satin cloak was embroidered with gold thread with a cloud pattern, although it was only densely embroidered near the edge, but the pattern was exquisite, and the cloud pattern she had held in her hand in the past few days was a flower pattern, a few drops of cold sweat flowed on her forehead, and her heart was instantly panicked.

The Queen Mother asked him to get up, looked at the feather satin cloak on his body, and there was a look of love in his eyebrows, "I called you here today for a ...... thing."

She pointed to Chan Yi, Chan Yi understood, and handed over the sweat towel in her hand, Chu Shaoyuan was stunned for a moment, reached out to take it, and the moment the two hands intersected, she gently shook her fingers and quickly staggered.

Chanyi only felt a heavy jump in her heart, and subconsciously wanted to raise her eyes to stare at him, so she hurriedly held back and lowered her head.

Chu Shaoyuan looked at the very familiar sweat towel in his hand, and asked, "Isn't this my sweat towel......?"

As soon as the words came out, an unusual aura immediately filled the hall, which made people panic suppressively.

The Empress Dowager glanced at the Duchess of Ningguo, who was stunned, and smiled: "You can see it, this is indeed your sweat towel?"

Chu Shaoyuan raised his head suspiciously, looked at the Empress Dowager, and then at the Duchess of Ningguo, whose face was gloomy, and asked softly, "Isn't it made for me by Mrs. Xia?"

Then he said strangely: "It's almost exactly the same as the sweat towel I use......

The Empress Dowager glanced at Chu Shaoyuan, "You can take off the sweat towel you used and compare it." ”

Chu Shaoyuan seemed to understand a little, nodded respectfully, walked to the ear room, untied the sweat towel, sorted out the clothes and walked out, put the two sweat towels together, and handed them to the palace people on the side.

The palace people presented the sweat towel to the queen mother, the queen mother and Concubine Zhuang carefully compared the two sweat towels, the stitch pattern can be said to be exactly the same, even the material is the same piece of material, but the pattern is more beautiful, the other one is not so fine, the pattern is better is just untied from the three princes, the other such a comparison, but not as the same Miss Xia family said, half of it has not been done, if there is no comparison, I am afraid that I can't see these differences.

The Empress Dowager nodded and asked the palace people to show it to the Empress and Duchess Ningguo.

The queen took a look, and she couldn't bear to look at it anymore, this bureau was simply set up by others, waiting for Duchess Ning Guo to drill, and Duchess Ning Guo was also stupid, and she would be so foolish.

Duchess Ning Guo glanced at the two sweat towels that were almost the same, and the cold sweat on her body was densely packed, and she only felt that the whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and she was shivering from the cold.

Chu Shaoyuan secretly glanced at Chan Yi who was standing aside, and saw that she hung her head and didn't seem to care about the dynamics of the hall, but the corners of her mouth raised a smile slightly, he saw it at a glance, and there was some pampering in his heart, this bureau is really wonderful, and I don't know if it was her idea or Jinyu's idea.

The Empress Dowager waved her hand at Chu Shaoyuan, "Third child, you go back and continue studying." ”

looked like he was being chased away.

Chu Shaoyuan was a little reluctant, he could see that the two sweat towels must have come from Wanzhao's hand, and she had never given herself such a personal thing, so she lost two sweat towels this time, thinking about it, it was really worth the loss.

He couldn't help but say: "Imperial grandmother, grandson's sweat towel ......"

Seeing Chu Shaoyuan's reluctant look, the Empress Dowager looked at him with some amusement: "Am I still greedy for your two sweat towels? I'll give you a better one later!"

Chu Shaoyuan pouted, better? Where is the evening photo to send him?

Concubine Zhuang also smiled on the side: "Your imperial grandmother will borrow your sweat towel first, and then return you, you can go back to study first!"

The Empress Dowager and Concubine Zhuang both said so, so he had no choice but to give up and salute and leave Ci'an Palace.

As soon as Chu Shaoyuan left, the Queen Mother's face immediately sank, she glanced at the Duchess of Ningguo, and said coldly: "Tell me, how did this sweat towel come from?"

Duchess Ning Guo's face was pale, her mind was a mess, and she was resentful in her heart, why did she always suffer every time she was next to the Xia family?

But she didn't dare to make a sound, only silence.

Seeing that she was silent, the queen mother was angry, slapped the table hard, and said angrily: "Didn't you say it very happily just now? Why do you let you say it now, but you don't say it?"

Concubine Zhuang looked at the trembling Duchess of Ningguo, and said casually: "The things in the boudoir of my daughter's house can also be so inexplicably in the hands of Duchess Ningguo, really, fortunately, it's just a sweat towel, if you lose something else, or something more, I'm afraid that Mrs. Xia won't be able to tell......"

Duchess Ningguo looked at Concubine Zhuang with wide eyes in horror, what she meant by this was that the Ningguo Mansion was secretly spying on the mansion of the court officials, she was saying that the Ningguo Mansion had a heart of disobedience!

What a vicious mind!

Duchess Ning Guo glared at Concubine Zhuang, there was no trace of a smile on her pale face, and her eyes were vicious, as if she was going to eat Concubine Zhuang raw.

Concubine Zhuang was surprised: "What's wrong with Duchess Ningguo?"

She turned her head to Xie Shi and said, "Mrs. Xia, you have to check the mansion when you go back, don't really be like what I said, it's bad!"

Xie recently heard her daughter tell her about the affairs of the court, and knew that the emperor intended to weaken Xungui's children, so he nodded and said, "Concubine Zhuang reminds me that the concubine will definitely check it when she goes back." ”

Duchess Ning Guo was so angry that she almost fell backwards, they were so anxious to buckle the basin on themselves, what should she do to resolve this situation?

…… No, there's no way, it's a dead end!

She closed her eyes in despair, no matter what, she couldn't get rid of the charge of framing the daughter of a court official.

The Empress Dowager snorted coldly, looking at her no longer angry, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it," she instructed the palace people, "Go and pass Gu Shizi into the palace, I want to ask him how he got this sweat towel." ”

Duchess Ning Guo was so shocked that she almost collapsed to the ground, if she called her son into the palace, she was afraid that her son's future would be ruined!

She exclaimed, "I, I said ......"

But what to say, what to say, what to say, what can she say? She couldn't figure out the confusion in her mind.

The queen glanced at Duchess Ning Guo coldly, as if she was looking at a dead person, and now this idiot still can't figure out his situation, it's really difficult for someone like Ning Guogong to strategize, how could he marry such a thing.

She coughed lightly and whispered to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, I have heard about one thing, saying that when the old lady of the Xie family was born, the girl of the Gu family had a dispute with Miss Xia ......

When Duchess Ning Guo heard the queen's words, she suddenly blessed her heart, and hurriedly said: "Yes, it's Manman, because of Manman's matter, I was angry, thinking of letting Miss Xia family have a foreign appearance, so I privately bought off the people around Miss Xia and stole the sweat towel......"

The queen mother's eyes narrowed, she glanced at the queen, a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes, and her tone was cold: "The queen doesn't go out of the palace, but she knows the things in the world." ”

This was to say that she was restless, and the queen heard the meaning of the words and did not dare to say more.

The Empress Dowager paused and asked, "So, you yourself are going to frame Miss Xia?"

Duchess Ning pursed her lips, tears rolling down her eyes.

She knew that she would be over as soon as she confessed her guilt, but she still nodded reluctantly, it was better to die by herself than to let the Ningguo Mansion lose in her hands, her Yi'er still had such a long way to go in the future, if she involved him, I am afraid that there would be no good future in the future.
