Chapter 27: Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Turn Their Faces [Second Watch]
Cai Wei had already heard that Liu Xi was going to compete with Jing Shizi tomorrow, she sent someone to inquire about Jing Shizi's details, and learned that the guy had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his martial arts were quite high, so she couldn't help but sweat for Liu Xi, but this matter was about the honor of a man, so although she was worried about Liu Xi, she didn't persuade him to back down, but secretly decided that when the two of them competed tomorrow, she would be there to watch it in person, in case Liu Xi suffered a loss, with her present, she could also relieve him. 『』『』
Early the next morning, Nangong Yi went to court, Cai Wei put the three milk buns into the space, let Changmei and Brother Parrot watch them, and she changed into civilian clothes and prepared to leave the palace.
When I just walked outside the imperial study, I saw Bai Zhi, the big palace maid in the Empress Dowager Mo's palace, hurriedly walked over, saw Cai Wei, and said: "Niangniang, the big thing is not good, the Empress Dowager Niangniang has just fainted suddenly, please go over and take a look!" ”
Cai Wei exclaimed: "It's so decent, why did you faint, but please ask the imperial doctor to come and see?" ”
Bai Zhi said anxiously: "I have already sent someone to ask the Yao Yuan to judge, but now that there is no one in charge in the Yukun Palace, the slave and maid have the courage to come over to invite Niangniang!" ”
"Swing and go to Yukun Palace!"
Empress Dowager Mo fainted, Cai Wei naturally had to put her first, although she didn't like Empress Dowager Mo, but for Nangong Yi's sake, she has always been very good to her, for most of the past six months, Empress Dowager Mo has been hit too hard because of the loss of her daughter, and her body has been chirping not very well, Cai Wei also asked the old turtle to give her medicine, so that she can avoid the pain of illness, and the food and water she eats and drinks also come from Cai Wei's space, otherwise, her body would have collapsed long ago......
Hurried to the Yukun Palace, and without waiting for the sedan chair to stop, Cai Wei jumped down from the phoenix chariot and walked quickly towards the dormitory palace.
In the dormitory, Empress Dowager Mo was leaning on the Luohan bed in a plain body, with a sad expression, describing withered, she stared blankly at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, I don't know what she was thinking?
"Bai Zhi, what's going on?" Seeing that Empress Dowager Mo was sitting there in a dignified manner, Cai Wei's expression was sharp, and she turned her head to look at Bai Zhi.
Seeing this, Bai Zhi hurriedly knelt down, and kowtowed again and again: "The queen mother spares her life, the queen mother spares her life, ......
"You don't have to blame her, it's Hongu's idea!"
Empress Dowager Mo turned her head, a pair of godless eyes swept around Cai Wei's casual clothes, and sneered: "The queen is going out of the palace, if this palace doesn't use this method, I'm afraid I won't be able to invite the queen mother!" ”
Knowing that the Queen Mother was going to make trouble again, Cai Wei said with a headache: "Queen Mother, the concubine really has something very important to do today, if you have any instructions, can you wait for the concubine to come back and talk about it?" ”
The duel between Liu Xi and Jing Shizi is about to start, it is a matter of human life, she really doesn't have time to listen to Empress Dowager Mo complain to her about 'why Chaoyue's case hasn't been solved', for half a year, every time she sees this Empress Dowager, she listens to her complaining that the case has not been solved, as if she and Nangong Yi deliberately did not let the case be solved. An undefeated jewel of the East.
Speaking from her heart, she really bothered a lot for Chaoyue's case, but the murderer was hiding too deeply, and they couldn't find it at all, and it was precisely because she couldn't find it that she was always uneasy and never dared to leave the children, lest the poisonous snake hiding in the shadows take advantage of her absence to come out and bite the child.
So, she really tried her best, but she couldn't do it!
Seeing Cai Wei's attitude, Empress Dowager Mo sneered: "As the same queen, this palace really envies you, I want to make rules in the queen mother's palace at this hour every day, how can I be as comfortable as Queen Mu, if you want to go out of the palace, you can go out of the palace casually, if you don't want to come to ask for peace, you don't come to ask for peace, what you queen do, it's really enviable!" ”
As soon as Cai Wei heard that Empress Dowager Mo's words were wrong, she knew that she was going to complain like Xianglin's sister-in-law again, but because she was suffering the pain of losing her daughter, she didn't want to see her in general, so she pulled away her skirt and said: "If the Queen Mother has anything to say, just listen to it." ”
Empress Dowager Mo pursed her lips and said, "Do you know what day it is?" ”
Cai Wei thought about it carefully, but she didn't think about it, and said, "The concubine doesn't know, please make it clear to the Queen Mother!" ”
"Huh!"
Empress Dowager Mo smiled mockingly: "Of course you will know, because you don't care about your sister-in-law at all, your husband's own sister, my own daughter!" ”
Here again, Cai Wei rubbed her eyebrows in distress, and said, "Queen Mother, the concubine is stupid, I don't know what you want to say, Queen Mother, please make it clear." ”
Empress Dowager Mo turned her head, looked at the white clouds outside the window, and said faintly: "It's okay to sue you, today is my Yu'er's seventeenth birthday, if she is still alive, she will have a happy birthday today, but she is dead, she was killed, but you brother and sister-in-law, but you haven't even caught her killer." ”
As she spoke, her tone became sharper: "When your family stays together happily and enjoys the joy of family, have you ever thought that Yu'er is still lying under the cold waiting for you to avenge your grievances, but what about you, you can't even solve a murder case, think about it carefully, are you worthy of your conscience and Yu'er's spirit in the sky?" ”
After hearing Empress Dowager Mo's resentment, Cai Wei almost laughed angrily, no wonder Nangong Yi was reluctant to come to ask for peace, it was really bad enough to have such a mother.
She turned around, sat down on the first rosewood chair on the right hand side of the Queen Mother, looked at the Queen Mother, and said calmly: "Today is Chaoyue's birthday, the Queen Mother touches the scene and is sad for Chaoyue, the concubines can understand, but if the Queen Mother says that we are not dedicated to Chaoyue, this is a bit unkind, and the Queen Mother does not stare at us every day, how do we know that we are not dedicated to Chaoyue?" Our efforts on this case? How does the Queen Mother know? ”
Empress Dowager Mo said arrogantly: "This palace doesn't listen to your useless quibbles, this palace only looks at the results, since you said that you did your best, it's been almost a year, why hasn't the case been solved yet?" ”
Cai Wei said: "The things of the world, there is a distinction between what is within the reach of the power and what the power cannot reach, Chaoyue's case happens to belong to the latter, the emperor and I have tried our best to investigate this matter, but the murderer is too cunning and too deep to hide, we can't find it at all, the queen mother can blame us for being useless, but we can't blame us for not being careful." ”
"Chaoyue's death, we are also sad, but, the deceased is gone, the living are still alive, there is no reason because of the loss of a loved one, all people should grieve for a lifetime, our family is happy and enjoy the joy of family, but we are worthy of our conscience, we don't need to blame ourselves for some unnecessary factorsreads(); The daughter of the Chen family! ”
"What a set of high-sounding truths, it's really good!" Empress Dowager Mo sneered: "Queen, let's compare our hearts to our hearts, if something like this happens to Mingzhu, will you say the same?" ”
Comparing the killing of Nangong Yu to Xiao Mingzhu's body, Cai Wei was furious, she stood up with a bang, glared at her eyes and said loudly: "Is the Queen Mother sad and confused?" This kind of thing can also be said, Mingzhu is your own granddaughter, even if you resent us, you shouldn't put such a vicious curse on an innocent child, what is there to be dissatisfied, just come at us! ”
When the eunuchs and palace maids in the house saw that Cai Wei was angry, they all hurriedly knelt down, leaned on the ground, and said in unison: "Please calm the queen's anger!" ”
At this time, the anger in Cai Wei's heart could not be calmed by their words of "stop the anger", as soon as she thought that her soft and cute little bun was cursed by the Empress Dowager Mo like that, Cai Wei felt that there was fire rushing to her head from the soles of her feet, burning her eyes red!
"Whether you believe it or not, Chaoyue's matter, we are indeed dedicated, if the Queen Mother still doesn't believe it, just manage this case by yourself or ask someone else, this palace wants to see who can solve this case?"
Empress Dowager Mo was already sad for Chaoyue, her love was very bad, and she was snatched by her daughter-in-law with her head and face, and suddenly the whole person was not good, she snapped the case, and shouted angrily: "Queen, what do you mean by this?" Are you throwing a face at Hongu? ”
Cai Wei said coldly: "The concubine doesn't dare, but the concubine looks good at the queen mother, it doesn't look like she fainted, so there is no need for the concubine to be sick, the concubine still has important things to do, and she has retired!" ”
"Don't you go...... Stop, Hongu hasn't finished talking yet......"
Empress Dowager Mo was robbed by Cai Wei, she trembled with anger, where was she willing to let her go, however, Cai Wei walked out as if she didn't hear it.
"It's the other way around, it's the other way around, you stop her for me......" The Queen Mother patted the table and pointed at Cai Wei's hand trembled.
The palace maids of Yukun Palace got the order of the Queen Mother, and immediately surrounded Cai Wei, Cai Wei pulled the corners of her mouth, glanced around coldly, and said, "Who dares to stop this palace?" ”
Receiving her cold eyes, those palace maids and eunuchs couldn't help but tremble, and really no one dared to step forward to stop her.
Cai Wei walked out of the Empress Dowager Mo's bedroom, and when she walked to the door, she stopped and said without turning around: "The concubines respect the Empress Dowager, and please don't lose the face of being an elder." ”
After speaking, just take a step and go, this sentence sounds like a light wind, but in fact, it is extremely heavy, heavy enough to make Empress Dowager Mo dumbfounded, and she can't come back for a long time!
Cai Wei walked outside quickly, opened the inner look and looked at her own space, and saw that a few small buns in the space were playing happily, Jin'er stood up with the legs of the white-haired tiger, and was stumbling forward to move forward; Yu'er lazily lay on the back of the old turtle, carried by the old turtle, and walked around slowly; Mingzhu was the most happy, she was lying on the edge of the Lingxi, stretching out her white little hands, trying to catch the phoenix scale fish in the Lingxi, and the long eyebrows were guarding her side to prevent her from falling into the stream!
Seeing that the children were all right, Cai Wei was relieved, she took the phoenix to the door of the palace, got down from the phoenix, sat in the carriage that Yicheng often sat in when leaving the palace, and quickly left the palace and walked towards the Hongyun Grand Theater where Liu Xi was!
