Chapter 5 The Bloody Case Caused by a Buddha Bead

When she arrived at Fengyi Palace, the concubine was already the latest concubine, and only Emperor Qingping and the queen had not arrived, and the high-ranking concubines and princesses of the palaces had arrived. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Seeing that the concubine arrived, they all got up and saluted one by one, and Xiao Ping naturally avoided it.

"Let's all get up." The concubine raised her hand quite majestically, and without waiting for everyone to sit down again, she turned her head and asked Mama Zhao, who was waiting in the Fengyi Palace, and said, "Sister Queen, isn't it ready?"

Mama Zhao was brought in when the queen entered the palace, and she also worked in the palace when she was young, and then when she got older, she was invited to be educated by the queen's mother's family when she left the palace, who knows, she went around and around, and returned to the palace, her experience is very similar to Mama Lan, but in terms of means in the harem, Mama Lan and this Mama Zhao in her forties can be said to be 108,000 miles apart, far less than others, after all, Mama Zhao has been immersed in half of her life and has seen a lot.

As soon as Mama Zhao heard the concubine's question, she knew that she was here to find fault, she bent over and replied with her hands down: "Back to the concubine, the queen is having dinner with His Majesty's eldest prince in the back, and His Majesty rested in Fengyi Palace last night, so the queen is late, and she has to serve Your Majesty, so the time is delayed, and I am tired of waiting for you for a while." ”

As she spoke, she bowed to the concubines and princesses again.

Everyone hurriedly waved their hands and said, "Where, where, it is important to serve Your Majesty."

Mama Zhao is not pulling hatred for the queen, but she has that confidence, the queen is in the middle palace, and she is accompanied by the eldest son of the eldest prince, and her position is stable, far from being easily shaken by other concubines, even the concubines are incomparable. Besides, the concubine and the queen are natural enemies, since the concubine wants to find fault, she naturally has to respond strongly, otherwise it will make people think that the queen is afraid of the concubine.

The concubine snorted coldly, let go of the hand holding Xiao Ping, pushed him, and said, "You go and play with your brothers and sisters." ”

"Yes, Princess."

Then, Xiao Ping bowed to the high-ranking concubines, and then turned around and walked towards the three princes and princesses.

"Sister Guifei is really good at teaching children, the fifth prince is so young, he knows etiquette so well, and he looks like a fairychild, no wonder he is likable, and His Majesty can't love it."

As soon as the concubines sat down, the soft and weak concubine looked enviously at Xiao Ping, who was leaving, and opened her mouth to flatter the concubine.

But these words are like irony, and the concubine also clearly understands that Emperor Qingping loves herself and Xiao Ping, but it is just a political need, how much weight they have in Emperor Qingping's heart, hehe, she herself doesn't know.

Looking at the soft and weak Concubine Rou, I remembered that she was not smart, she was pregnant with three children in five years after entering the palace, one child did not notice the miscarriage, one child was stillborn, the first child was born safely, and a fever went, but Concubine Rou always blamed herself for being weak, and she didn't realize that someone was making it bad, such a woman is really enough. For the sake of her miserable experience and unintelligent mind, the concubine was too lazy to care, but just glanced at her, causing the concubine next to her to cover her mouth and laugh, and Concubine Rou was embarrassed and didn't know what she said wrong.

After this revelation, the women began to talk about rouge gouache, makeup and clothes again, which was also lively.

Over there, Xiao Ping walked to the three princes and two princesses, the second prince Xiao Jin was playing nine consecutive rings with the second princess Wen Qing, and the third prince Xiao Yan and the fourth prince Xiao Shan were playing leaf cards with the eldest princess Wen Jing. As soon as he arrived, Xiao Jin, the ten-year-old second prince, greeted him loudly, "The fifth brother is here, come and play together?" ”

He picked up another Nine Links to signal, but the seven-year-old Second Princess Wen Qing pursed her lips, threw the Nine Links in her hand on the table with an unhappy face, and looked at Xiao Ping with squinted eyes.

is not popular, and stays to see the white eyes of others, isn't it uncomfortable? Xiao Ping didn't have masochistic tendencies, he shook his little head and replied in a childish voice, "No, thank you second brother, I don't like that." ”

He pointed to the Nine Links, and the second prince smiled and stopped inviting, but the second princess muttered, "He is so small, he must be very stupid, and he can't play the Nine Links at all." ”

Such an obvious disappointment, Xiao Ping didn't want to worry about the child, and he didn't want to listen to Yuxue's cute child say some jealous and sour words, so he hurriedly saluted the second prince and went to the third prince.

"You lost again, the third brother is really unlucky this time, he loses every time."

"Yes, the eldest sister should let me do a little." The seven-year-old third prince, Xiao Yan, sighed and said to the nine-year-old eldest princess.

"Haha, I won the most." The fourth prince is also seven years old, but he is the most jumpy, he shouts the loudest, and the atmosphere is a little lively.

But as soon as Xiao Ping came, the three of them were dumbfounded, and the eldest princess said dryly: "The fifth brother is here."

Xiao Yanli ignored him, but Xiao Shan pretended not to see it, and carefully counted the broken silver he had won.

Xiao Ping made a full salute, "Three brothers and sisters are good." ”

Seeing that the eldest princess nodded with a smile, the third prince nodded indifferently, Xiao Shan seemed to have just seen Xiao Ping, he was still holding the silver in his hand, and squinted. looked at Xiao Ping's three-year-old small body, "Cut." "Quite contemptible.

Xiao Ping likes this kind of naughty child the most, he was not married in his previous life and had no children, but when he saw a lively child, he couldn't help but tease and tease more, Xiao Shan was just right like this. So, Xiao Ping pestered Xiao Shan with great interest, constantly asking questions, looking at his impatient appearance, Xiao Ping found it even more interesting, and he deliberately pretended not to understand, teasing others, and satisfying the bad taste of the uncle's heart.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has arrived, and His Royal Highness the Grand Prince has arrived."

The shrill voice of the eunuch came again, and the concubines immediately stopped gossiping, dressed and groomed, Xiao Ping and the others also returned to their respective concubines, and Xiao Ping naturally went to the concubine's side.

Emperor Qingping Empress and the eldest prince came out from behind one by one, and the concubine led everyone to salute, "Welcome Your Majesty, Queen Mother." ”

Of course, the eldest prince Xiao Feng avoided it, he was not the prince yet, and he couldn't afford the big gifts of these people.

"Get up."

Emperor Qingping's majestic voice sounded, and with the sound of thanksgiving, everyone got together, and when Emperor Qingping sat on the throne, they all sat down in two rows, and Xiao Ping was naturally by the side of the concubine.

He glanced at everyone opposite, and suddenly was stunned, Concubine Su on the opposite side was twisting the Buddha beads, one by one, twisting the Buddha beads is not strange, the problem is that the Buddha beads look exactly the same as the one he picked up in the morning, could it be that Concubine Su wants to harm herself, he thought, but such a clumsy trick is not like a hidden person like her to do, thinking, he stared at the Buddha beads in Concubine Su's hand.

Everyone first congratulated the queen on her thousand years, then gave gifts, and after a few more gossips, they were all ready to get up and go outside to accept the worship of the ministers. But at this time, Mama Lan sneaked in, whispered to the concubine, and then handed the Buddhist beads in her hand to the concubine, and stood behind the concubine.

Naturally, the movements of the concubine were seen in the eyes of people, and they all lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes thinking about what was going on, so conspicuous, Emperor Qingping would naturally ask, otherwise he didn't pay attention to the concubine, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Oh, it's not a big deal, it's just a ......" she told the truth of the matter, and said with a smile: "Who knew that the result was a picker, and Mama Lan specially came to inform her." ”

When the concubine talked about the Buddha beads, Xiao Ping saw that Concubine Su put the Buddha beads in her hand into her sleeve for a moment and hid them, but Xiao Ping stared at them for a long time, there are thirty-five Buddha beads, the singular number is ominous, there should be another one.

And that one is very likely to be the one in the hand of the concubine, thinking of this, Xiao Ping couldn't help but look at the dignified Concubine Su again.

At this time, everyone is slandering the concubine in their hearts, you say it is a trivial matter, why take it out at this time, when the queen is a thousand autumns, say it in front of His Majesty, such an obvious destruction of the thousand autumn feast, the queen's thirty-year-old birthday, you are all fools when we are, can't you see it?

The concubine was still smiling, but the queen was smiling more dignified, as if she had not been ruined in her good mood, she said: "The concubine will definitely not be wrong, Your Majesty, what do you think should be done?" ”

Emperor Qingping closed his eyes and said indifferently: "Today's queen Qianqiu, it is not appropriate to see blood, let's die tomorrow." ”

"Did you hear me clearly, sister concubine?"

The concubine smiled as it should be, but Xiao Ping saw unwillingness in Concubine Su's eyes.

After a turmoil, everyone got up and went to the court banquet this time, and there were no accidents.

Xiao Ping was full of doubts in his heart, how could a forbearant person like Concubine Su do such a low-level harm, maybe her purpose was not to harm me, nor to harm the girl, but to have other purposes, he shook his head, unable to figure it out.
