The three hundred and forty-eighth round

The eldest grandson queen exchanged a few words with the two people, and the hairpin lady was taken away by the queen's personal maid Xiaozheng. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Only Qin Ying and the queen mother were left in the huge dormitory.

Qin Ying couldn't help but feel a pang of worry in her heart when she thought of Xiao Zheng's way of speaking that was actually intentional if it was unintentional. Empress Eldest Sun should have separated the two of them for interrogation.

However, Qin Ying couldn't understand why Empress Eldest Sun called Pei Lan, who was dressed as a woman, into the palace. The image of Pei Lan was only shown once by Empress Changsun at the palace banquet on August 15. If the queen mother is suspicious of Pei Lan, it won't take long to call her into the palace after August 15, why wait a few months until now?

Of course, it was impossible for Empress Eldest Sun to make Qin Ying feel her intentions as soon as she came up. Now she smiled and beckoned Qin Ying to sit down a little, and said, "Since Lan Niang was born in Yizhou, she must be a treasure of the food there." ”

Qin Ying sniffed out the words with the meaning of exploring her family background, and then leaned over and bowed, and said to the eldest grandson Empress that she had come to Yizhou to eat several famous specialties. Although she was not born in Yizhou, she spent a hundred years in Zhangren Mountain in the past, and when she didn't go down the mountain to buy rice and grain, she saw all kinds of snacks sold by people along the street.

Empress Eldest Sun didn't ask this question to know anything, just to let her relax her guard.

After two or three rounds of talking and laughing, Qin Ying listened to Empress Changsun again: "Have you learned any female celebrity at home?" ”

Yizhou's embroidery is famous in the Central Plains, and Qin Ying didn't dare to say that she had learned a little from her mother or sister. If Empress Eldest Sun became interested and let her hold the needle plate on the spot and embroider on the spot, then she would be exposed.

Qin Ying's mind turned two corners and said: "When you have nothing to do, you practice your hands, but your skills are unbearable for outsiders." ”

Empress Changsun bowed slightly, let her sit down a little more, stretched out her hand and put her sleeve on her knee, took her hand and asked her kindly why she had separated the Pei family in Hedong and came to settle in Yizhou without a hundred miles.

Her question is tricky. Qin Ying had a premonition that he was about to be defeated. However, her hand was in the palm of the eldest grandson's empress, and she couldn't get out of this situation at all. When a drop of cold sweat broke out in her head, she hurriedly became wise:

"I was still a baby when we separated. When I grew up and was curious about the family's past, my parents didn't allow me to mention a word. ”

Empress Eldest Sun took Qin Ying's hand and noticed a subtle cocoon. Generally, the embroidery practice of the lady is mostly on the index finger, and Qin Ying's index finger, middle finger, and even ring finger have a horizontal cocoon left by the needle. Empress Eldest Sun noticed this, and listened carefully to her words.

“…… Fan Yang Lu's concubine fell into the water at the August Ladies Banquet, and you came forward to save her. How did you learn medicine at such a young age? The eldest grandson asked quietly.

Qin Ying relied on many geisha past stories she had heard of, and made them up nonsense:

My father tried and failed, and when he was discouraged, he abandoned Confucian books and looked at Taoist books and medical books. My father thought that I was eight or nine years old and uncertain, so he enlightened me with those books. Over the past few years, I have memorized a lot of sutra mantras, but they are not to the level of healing. When I attended the banquet of the noble ladies in August, I saw that people were unconscious and couldn't bear to stand idly by, so I tried it hard. ”

The implication is that she was able to wake up Fan Yang's daughter of the Lu family purely by chance.

Empress Eldest Sun didn't hear the logical error from it, but the doubts in her heart deepened. Pei Lan and Qin Ying's faces are only six or seven points apart, and their voices are eight or nine points apart.

"You're funny, little lady." Empress Eldest Sun pondered for a moment and said softly.

Qin Yingpi didn't smile, hoping that the interrogation would end as soon as possible. Her back was already wet.

Empress Changsun seemed to feel Qin Ying's anxiety, and slowly let go of Qin Ying's sweaty hand, and looked at Qin Ying's makeup with lustrous phoenix eyes, and said, "As a lady in the boudoir, how did you meet Master Pei Lianpei in Yizhou?" ”

Qin Ying's lies were forgotten in a blink of an eye every time, so he hurriedly followed Fang Cai's thoughts:

"My father is one of the Qing guests of Chengdu Mansion Yin, and he has some friendship with Master Pei. When my father was framed and imprisoned, when Master Pei left Yizhou, he took me with him. On the way, Master Pei's minor illness and small disaster headache and brain fever were also taken care of by me. ”

She said it was sincere, as if it was true. Make it easy for the listener to fall into the trap.

However, Empress Eldest Sun has experienced so many battles in the harem, and with just one look, she knows that Qin Ying's words are hidden in three points of falsehood.

However, based on the clues, she was still not sure whether Qin Ying and Pei Lan were related.

When she couldn't find a breakthrough after thinking about it, Empress Changsun suddenly saw a volume of "Huayan Sutra" that had not been copied next to her pillow, and she calmed down again and said, "Can the little lady help the palace write a few scriptures." As he spoke, he handed the scroll to Qin Ying.

Qin Ying held the bamboo book in both hands, and there was a trace of embarrassment in her eyes. She broke off her friendship with Ruqi for several months, but she still couldn't look directly at things related to Buddha. Once you see something, your heart will be congested. Now that Empress Changsun is using this trick, Qin Ying has to accompany her.

Turning around and spreading out the handwritten book of the eldest grandson queen, she poured water and studied the ink pen with confidence on the small table. Her handwriting is not a hairpin, but it is better to be upright and neat.

Since Qin Ying was plausibly ridiculed by Li Chengqian once, she made a decision to practice calligraphy, she became a monk halfway, although she is not as good as Mei Sanniang, who has learned to take a brush since she was a child, but her hard work always pays off.

She first consulted Master Ouyang, who is excellent in calligraphy, how to hold a pen and how to practice calligraphy. After that, she insisted on writing three silk books every day, and after a long time, her words were finally able to see people.

However, writing with your wrist in this way, the strokes are horizontal and vertical, and the disadvantage is that the speed is very slow.

Empress Changsun still remembered that Qin Ying had first entered the palace more than half a year ago and had written a prescription for Li Chengqian's leg disease, and if you didn't look at the handwriting carefully, you would definitely not be able to tell what it was. But now Qin Ying's words have changed a lot, and the eldest grandson queen can't find a fault in the end, seeing that she said after writing a line, she didn't need to continue.

Qin Ying breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, shook the tip of the pen and hung it back on the pen holder, and Shi Li said to the eldest grandson: "Niangniang is kind to me. ”

"Help me see how you can not be cautious." Empress Changsun put one hand on the agarwood pillow on the edge of the couch, and tapped her fingers on the pillow.

Qin Ying was slightly taken aback when she heard this, and after calming down, she said inch by inch: "Niangniang is satisfied with me?" ”

Empress Eldest Sun looked at Qin Ying and said lightly: "Beauty is beautiful, but not big." This sentence is from "Zhuangzi", and Empress Changsun knows that Qin Ying can understand it. If it is used for commentators, it refers to the small family spirit of the pattern vision.

I saw that Qin Ying's face was a little ugly, but she immediately smiled and said: "The lady of the boudoir only has one person in her heart, it doesn't matter if it's big or small." (To be continued.) )
