050 Eventful Autumn (Part II)
There are many bonsai in the courtyard, and at this time the twilight is deep and has lost some color. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lin Qixu looked against the light, and Imperial Physician Wang stopped in front of a pair of exquisitely painted rosewood scrolls.
The little maid slowly unfolded the scroll, accompanied by the thick sandalwood that was dyed day and night, a wisp of floating musk slowly rushed into her nose, Lin Qixu was so alert, and immediately looked up to see Imperial Doctor Wang.
Seeing that the imperial doctor's expression changed greatly, he called the medical officer who specialized in pregnancy, and the regent also paid attention, and his dark and deep eyes were full of coldness.
Lin Qixu settled down slightly, but saw Xie Yi's strange expression.
Imperial Physician Wang stepped forward and said, "Jingchen has found that this picture scroll contains a lot of musk. Can I remove the scroll to view it? ”
"Exactly." The regent got up from his seat and slowly walked to the front of the unfolding picture scroll, Lin Qixu saw clearly by the palace lamp, it was originally a statue of Guanyin, accompanied by a vivid golden boy and jade girl on the side, the brushwork is exquisite, the characters are exquisite and vivid, it is estimated that it is a congratulatory gift.
With a little force, Imperial Physician Wang removed the seals at both ends of the rosewood, and several fragrant, strong and pungent musks rolled down. He picked up the round one, stared at it slightly, turned his head in disgust, and said coldly: "Lord Wang, this musk is extremely precious, made of male musk deer, the value is comparable to that of pearls, and it can be used for medicinal purposes to open meridians and penetrate muscles and bones." However, the princess is pregnant, so she must avoid it. He went to see Mama Qin, who came with him and was surprised.
Mama Qin echoed again and again: "The old slave has also served to give birth to a fetus, and understands these taboos, since the princess is pregnant, she never dares to smoke incense, and the clothes that have been dyed with incense in the past are also locked in the cabinet." But this picture scroll ......" she hesitated, and looked at the regent with an indifferent gaze, Fang Yi was excited, and looked at Xie Yi, who was also in turmoil, lowered her voice, and said, "On the day of the Spring Festival banquet, the Duchess of Fuguo sent someone to send it, and the princess liked its charm, so she hung it in the Buddhist hall and often went to pray for blessings." ”
Xie Yi took two steps forward, looked at it for a moment, and nodded heavily: "Brother-in-law, this is indeed sent by my mother." ”
There is no need to argue more, how can there be a biological mother who will harm her daughter's flesh and blood.
It's easy to find out this step, but it's another dead end.
The regent hid his anger, stared at the hollow scroll for a while, and asked, "Do you remember that this scroll was empty in the first place?" ”
Xie Yi thought for a moment and said, "Yes." ”
In other words, there are no packet drops.
Xie Yi summoned her personal maid Zhen Zhen and asked, "Do you remember who handled this scroll?" ”
"It was sent by the slave maid herself." Zhen Zhen's face was pale, and the big girl of the Li family had something to do that day, and she was the one who took the blame.
Xie Yi continued to ask, "Who did you hand it over?" ”
"It seems to be a little maid with a raw face, and the slave maid was in a bad stomach at that time, and she was anxious to find a ...... land," Zhen Zhen defended palely, knelt on the ground with weak legs, and added, "But the slave and maid are sure that it is the maid in the princess's courtyard." Even if you are in a hurry, the slave must recognize the face. ”
This is also easy to do, Xie Yi raised his chin lightly, and said coldly: "Everyone is here, you go to Haosheng to recognize it." "It's also to blame her for being too spoiled by Zhen Zhen, and she did things out of line to harm her own sister.
Zhen Zhen trembled her weak legs and feet, knowing that if she couldn't recognize people, she was afraid that she would be regarded as having bad intentions, murdering the king's heir, and beating her to death with a stick, so she also searched for them one by one very seriously.
A maid or servant woman stands or kneels, and no one dares to come out of the atmosphere.
"It's her!" Zhen Zhen's voice mixed with crying suddenly sounded, dragging the little maid who was huddled by the wall.
Mama Qin looked at Peiyu, who was in charge of the flowers and plants in the outer courtyard, and her eyes turned to another place, it was Ah Wu with a panicked face and disbelief. They are sisters.
Lin Qixu said secretly, isn't it infighting?
……
As night fell, the palace was lit up.
Peiyu knelt down in a panic, remembered something again, and hurriedly pulled another maid who was separated by a few bodies, named Su Yue, who had just entered the main courtyard for half a year, and was simple and cute on weekdays, helping the big girl to do some chores.
Tears appeared in the corners of Peiyu's eyes, and she said eagerly: "Su Yue, you quickly talk to the county lord, that day we took the painting scroll together." Sister Zhen Zhen is not feeling well, and she knows the two of us, so she entrusts it to us. ”
Different from Peiyu's sincerity and fear, Su Yue was very well-behaved, blessed her body first, bowed her head and said: "Back to the prince, the slave maid did take this Guanyin statue with Peiyu." ”
"Nothing wrong?" The regent said coldly, Su Yue's eyes dodged but couldn't hide from him.
In an instant, Lin Qixu met Su Yue's timid and cowering gaze, and his heart trembled coldly.
Su Yue's expression was sincere, and she said: "When the slave came out of the main courtyard, she happened to see Lin Ji's back, which was a cloud-colored embroidered silk skirt. ”
The regent's eyes floated faintly, weighing as heavy as a thousand catties: "Oh." Lin, where were you that day? ”
Lin Qixu was thoughtful, and his heart was relieved for a moment. However, she still wants to see more of Su Yue's lame acting skills. She said vaguely: "The concubine was unwell that day and left the banquet early." ”
Probably because her criminal record was too bad, the regent was quite thoughtful and asked Na Suyue: "Are you sure you can see clearly?" ”
Su Yue saw that Lin Qixu's demeanor was inappropriate and his words were not smooth, so she affirmed: "The slave maid has seen it." Due to the shortage of manpower in the main courtyard that day, the other maids may have been negligent. ”
Xie Yi watched back and forth from the side, and when he heard that the Lin family was slightly suspicious, he raised his eyebrows coldly. Only thinking back to that day, her mind was suddenly as clear and bright as day, and she couldn't help but want to refute it, Lin Qixu's eyes turned, and she actually signaled her not to speak.
Xie Yi was silent.
Is it someone who wants to find out who is behind the scenes? It just so happens that she wants to take a look. Who dared to not only dare to harm his sister, but also blame the Lin family with delusional thoughts.
At that time, the regent was asking Mama Qin. Mama Qin explained according to her impression: "At the banquet, Lin Ji did leave first. As for the reason, it seems that it is because the aunt and grandmother of Changping Bofu talked about Lin Ji's younger brother, who betrayed his ancestors and ran away from home. Lin Ji probably couldn't stand the news and left with a gloomy face. ”
At the mention of Qi Chen, Lin Qixu's heart stiffened, and there were ripples of sadness in his eyebrows. Because he was in a trance, he didn't notice that Xie Yi was also unusual, and he hung his head.
Lin Qixu was silent for a moment, with a shallow smile on the corner of his lips, and asked Su Yue: "You can't accuse me like this." You dare to say it again, on that day, you really saw me at the gate of the main courtyard, right? ”
Word by word, loud and clear.
Qingling was tactful, and the regent vaguely recalled the Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures she sang melodiously a few days ago, and was silent.
The world believes in ghosts and gods, Su Yue has a loss in her heart, how dare she easily gamble on curses. She was forced to burst into tears, and sobbed, "The slave doesn't dare, but she doesn't dare to lie." In the past, you had a miscarriage in the main courtyard, and the slave maid also gave you a decoction of medicine, and at night I saw that you were awake all night, crying silently, and there was pity in my heart. Where do you dare to disturb casually, I thought you were missing the child, so I thought about coming to the main courtyard to take a turn to pay tribute to the fetus. ”
was suddenly talked about the child who had no chance, Lin Qixu's heart was weak and ignorant for a moment, those days and nights, she also stared at the moonlight inch by inch and crawled through the window lattice, crawled over the bedding, crawled over her cold body, the blood condensed into ice in the body, it was so cold, so painful, it was almost engraved in the heart.
