31. Degassing

Su Ying knelt on the seat beside her, but she was very worried about her sister. The queen's mother is not so easy to get along with today, her sister is embarrassed, she is also sitting on pins and needles, I don't know what the queen's intentions are.

The queen was very comfortable, and the clever little Gong'e beside her steadily followed Su Yao's work to brew a cup of Miaoshan Silver Needle, and the queen tasted tea with a cup of tea as steadily as Mount Tai.

With just a cup of silver needles from the mountain, the queen was supported by Gong'e and slowly stood up, and said leisurely, "Why didn't you see Miss Su come back?" The palace remembers that the flowers in the courtyard of Hanguang Hall are blooming just right, maybe Miss Su is lingering, why don't the second miss go with the palace to see? ”

Su Ying is so smart, as soon as she heard that the queen deliberately led her words towards Hanguang Palace, she knew that something must have gone wrong with her sister. This is a deliberate attempt to force the two sisters to comply. Therefore, Su Ying hurriedly refused: "Where do the two ministers and sisters need to be taken care of like Niangniang, my sister is more casual in the countryside, and she can't come back for a while, and she is already wrong to find her mother, how can she find it in person, it is better for the courtier and the daughter to play a game of chess to relieve boredom, and it can be regarded as reparation?"

The queen just said casually: "Where is Miss Su, the eldest lady was born in Pingxi Academy, and she is the most knowledgeable, how can the second miss be so modest?" This is a good time in late spring and early summer, so let's go out with the main palace. ”

After speaking, the person had already walked out without saying anything. Su Ying saw that she couldn't stop the queen, so she had to follow obediently, and only prayed in her heart that her sister Nengji had her own natural appearance and survived this hidden crisis.

Hanguang Hall is really not far from Mingjia Palace. Just halfway through, I saw a palace lady coming in a hurry, looking very anxious, and muttered a few words in the queen's ear. When the queen heard this, her face sank suddenly, and she reprimanded the man for a few words, and then said to Su Ying: "This slave is a little stupid, and she lost Miss Su a few steps away."

Su Ying's heart sank when she heard this, how could a good person be lost, her sister's simple temperament was probably calculated in vain. Sure enough, it was a Hongmen banquet, and I am afraid that I will not be able to go back well today. I don't know if she can choose her sister with her ability.

While speaking, she had already arrived at the door of Hanguang Palace, and Gong E didn't think about it, she pushed the door and was about to break in, but Su Ying didn't do it, knelt down with a "plop", and said: "My sister has not yet married, and I am changing clothes in the hall at this time, if I collide with my sister, where will my sister's face go?"

The queen laughed "sneered", glanced behind her, raised her hand and said: "What are you afraid of, they are all women, how can you collide with the word, is it possible that there is still a man hidden in broad daylight?"

Su Ying didn't say it anymore, but she had a faint premonition in her heart, and when she was anxious, the closed door of the Hanguang Hall opened by itself with a "squeak".

Everyone outside suddenly focused their eyes on the person who opened the door, and saw a girl with a blue full-breasted long skirt covered with a water-green light gauze shirt stepping out of the door, it was Su Yao who had changed her dress. The man was slightly stunned, as if he was a little surprised, and then bowed deeply to the high-ranking person, and said, "Why did Niangniang come in person?" Ah Yao was stupid, presumably making Niangniang wait in a hurry. ”

That Gong'e was surprised at first, but in an instant, she frowned, looking puzzled, as if she didn't expect her to be so calm. Although the queen mother had no different color, she also glanced at the people around her and said, "Why don't you go in and clean up?"

Su Yao was puzzled: "Ah Yao didn't touch the things in the hall." The implication is, why clean up?

But the queen didn't listen, but only ordered the people around her to go in. The man entered the Hanguang Palace, searched carefully, and did not find the prince of the regent who should have appeared here, so he had to leave the palace with a difficult face and shook his head at the queen.

The queen was secretly thinking about it, when she heard a report from the people of the first palace in a panic, saying that the prince regent and the four princes were drinking in the Liuyu Pavilion, and they were drunk, and they had just been sent out of the palace by the four highnesses.

Liuyu Pavilion is behind the Hanguang Palace, Ye Ji has been friends with the prince since he was a child, and the queen immediately understood that the matter was not done because Ye Ji was a ghost, although it was invisibly resolved. didn't hurt his face, but if he wanted to calculate Su Yao later, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as easy as it is today.

Su Ying also guessed a few points in her heart, and said crisply: "It turns out that Brother Feng also came to the palace, but it's a pity that the two of us sisters have no fate with him and can't meet."

Su Yao also smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many days since I said goodbye to Pingxi, but it's a pity."

The palace lady who had just led Su Yao to Hanguang Hall did not relent, knelt down with a "plop", and said: "The slave maid led Miss Su here, and Su Da disappeared halfway through, but in a trance, I saw the prince regent coming towards Hanguang Palace......"

The implication is that how could Su Yao not see Feng Ce? To put it more seriously, it was Su Yao and Feng Ce who had a private meeting in the palace.

Before he finished speaking, Su Yao took over the conversation with a smile and said, "Presumably you remembered it wrong, I was clearly led into the Hanguang Hall by you, why didn't I remember it at this time?" The people around Niangniang are so smart, how could they make such a mistake? ”

That Gong'e was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't think that Su Yao could make up nonsense with her eyes open like this, but the other party was the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she was just a small palace person, and let Su Yao talk nonsense, it was impossible for the queen to make it clear whether she believed her or not, so she quickly changed her words and said: "It was the slave maid who remembered it for a while, but it was just that she did see the prince walking towards this side." His Royal Highness and the prince have always been not speculative, how can they make an appointment with Liuyu Pavilion? ”

The smile on Su Yao's face became more and more obvious, and he said gently: "Have you seen the matter between the masters and the son clearly?" If the prince hadn't fulfilled the covenant of the four highnesses, why could he enter the inner courtyard of this palace without being passed? If it weren't for the kindness of the mother, how could you follow your side without being punished? ”

It wasn't until the end of the sentence that Su Yao raised his eyes to look at the slightly stiff queen, and said, "Niangniang, do you say this is the reason?"

She threw the conversation to the queen like this, and the queen could no longer let this palace lady "talk nonsense", and if she continued, she would be the queen of the middle palace but she had no way to discipline her. Seeing that Gong E still had the intention of opening her mouth, she hurriedly instructed the people around her and said, "Telling the truth, how can such a stupid person be tolerated around this palace." Come on, drag it down, face ......"

Before she finished speaking, Su Ying also "pounced" and knelt down, pleading: "Niangniang is merciful, this palace lady is only confused for a while, don't punish her heavily, it is enough for the courtier to watch the staff and scold forty."

The queen's sentence "facing the wall for three days" was stuck in her throat, this palace lady is her personal maid, but she is unwilling, and the idea of meritorious service and reward is stronger, but she didn't expect Su Yao to be so powerful, she actually refuted her speechless sentence by sentence, and could only go through the motions to punish her, but she didn't expect to kill Su Ying halfway, and she had to be scolded by the rod to relieve her hatred.

The queen is biased, presumably this palace person is also a close attendant of the queen. If the cane scolding forty is really beaten down, those two legs are also useless, Su Yao didn't want to be hated by the queen, so he knelt down, pulled Su Ying, and just wanted to speak, but was misunderstood by the queen, thinking that she was also down, and said: "In this case, after the two sisters leave, the cane will be scolded forty."

Over there, although Su Ying was pulled by Su Yao's sleeves and saw her sister's eyes, she shook her head and said: "Niangniang doesn't have to avoid the two ministers, the courtiers and sisters have grown up in the countryside since childhood, and they will definitely not be afraid, and the mother will punish them in person."

The implication is that you must watch that Gong'e being punished before you can calculate this evil breath.

Su Yao couldn't figure out for a while why Su Ying, who was calm and rational in the past, suddenly didn't give up today, and wanted to dissuade her, but Su Ying ignored her, so she had to frown and stop talking.

The queen didn't get angry, and really scolded the palace e's staff in front of Su Yao's two sisters, no more, no less, forty beatings.

Su Ying was satisfied, exchanged glances with Su Yao, explained her intentions, and went home.

The queen was put on a living position, but she was dumb and ate coptis, she couldn't say her bitterness, she was very tired in her heart, and even Gong'e, who couldn't stand up with the pear blossoms and rain on the ground, was also bored, and when the Su sisters said goodbye, they brushed their sleeves away, and no longer cared about the life and death of the palace people.

Sitting in the carriage back home, Su Yao couldn't hold back after all, and took Su Ying's hand and said, "Why is my sister so angry today, you have to fight against the queen before you give up?" Remind my sister of those words in the past, you forgot all your feelings? ”

Su Ying snorted and complained: "The queen mother made it clear that she wanted to calculate her sister, and then Gong'e made it clear that she was innocent of her sister, and our sister was also the daughter of the Su family who was courteous to everyone in Pingxi since she was a child, how could she have suffered such a grievance?" I want the queen to understand today that the girl of our Su family is not wronged like that, and if you marry into the East Palace in the future, she will not be able to bully her sister as she wants. ”

Her sister is good everywhere, but her temperament is too easy-going, she doesn't take everything to heart, and if she marries into the East Palace in the future, if she is wronged, she will definitely feel distressed. Although their Su family is not an emperor, the Pingxi Su family even has to give three points to the emperor. Their father came out to rule the world, not to be wronged.

Saying that, Su Ying pulled Su Yao's right hand hidden under the wide sleeve over, and said distressedly: "Sister's hands, they play the piano and drive horses, how can they be treated like this?"

Su Yao coughed dryly, how could she say that she had done it herself...... The conversation changed and said: "Speaking of which, my sister was able to survive this catastrophe safe and sound today, but it was also indispensable for the help of the Fourth Highness." My sister looks at him, but she is not as unbearable as you say. ”
