Su Lingman's heart was up and down, uneasy and inferior, but fortunately, she looked quite calm on her face, no matter what happened around her, she always stood with her head down and behaved, silently, and let others gossip.

It was so deadlocked for about half a quarter of an hour, before the concubine asked for peace, Concubine Shi would help speak with a smile, Xiao Xia didn't say that she would naturally say it, but it was Su Lingman's turn and Concubine Shi didn't say it, and only secretly observed Xiao Xia like everyone else.

Mrs. Liang on the side was very anxious, she could see at a glance that these concubines had bad intentions, but all the nobles present were in the palace, and the situation was unknown, she couldn't speak lightly, and it was not good to mention Xiao Xia in person.

This kid has been unable to speak before, and he behaves in a proper and honest manner, if he still acts like the other side of the house, he will definitely be swallowed by this group of wolf-like women to the bone! What to do, what to do?

Fortunately, Gui Ying came in with a few palace maids carrying trays, saluted in front of Xiao Xia, and then walked to Xiao Xia's side and whispered: "Niangniang, the slave maid picked some jewelry objects from the treasury, all of which are admired by the emperor, this is a list." ”

Gui Ying sent a list to Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia glanced at it roughly, these names are very fanciful, some things have never been heard of, but Gui Ying is careful to do things, and marks a small number in front of each object, and judging from the name, the number should be sorted according to the value of things.

Xiao Xia glanced at him with satisfaction, nodded, picked a gold-inlaid jade step from the list and shook it out, and asked Gui Ying to give Lingman a meeting gift, and by the way, let you sit down without courtesy.

Everyone looked at each other in surprise when they heard this, and that's it? Isn't this concubine's family at odds with the Su family? Shouldn't she use this to humiliate Concubine Su? Just let her squat for a while. What does it mean to be the first to give a reward without saying a word?

Gui Ying personally took the box and sent it to Su Lingman and said in a low voice: "Su Concubine Niangniang." This is a welcome gift from the concubine, please sit down! ”

Su Lingman reacted when he saw Gui Ying open the box, revealing the golden and delicate step inside, it turned out that he heard it correctly, not only did the concubine not embarrass me, but also gave the first reward, why? It was the concubine who felt that my status was inferior. It's not worth caring about or ...... Do it for everyone to see, so that everyone thinks that she is virtuous and generous, and will not worry about me because of her mother's affairs?

She peeked at Natsu. Seeing that Xiao Xia was talking to Concubine Shi with a smile, he was a little calmer, no matter what the concubine meant, at least this level was over.

He took the box with his own hands. To Xiao Xia Fufu's body. Bow your head and silently step back and sit back in place.

Concubine Shi glanced at Su Lingman, there was obviously a little disdain and hatred in the corners of her eyes, she came back to her senses, and saw that Xiao Xia was staring at herself intently, Concubine Shi smiled and narrowed, and said in a low voice: "The concubine is really generous!" ”

Xiao Xia also smiled and said: "Yes, the sisters came to the door to send the palace to meet the gift, and the palace didn't say that it would be a loss of courtesy?" It just so happened that the palace also prepared a piece for the concubine and the princess. Gui Ying! ”

Gui Ying nodded, took the boxes from the little palace maid and gave them to Concubine Shi and Princess Anping respectively. Concubine Shi didn't look at it, waved her hand and let the personal maid accept it, Anping was young, and Gui Ying hadn't delivered it yet, so she stood up and grabbed it by herself:

"Show me, show me, what's good?"

Anping opened the box and stopped talking, the expression was also very weird, Xiao Xia was strange in his heart, he didn't know what Gui Ying took to Anping, he looked back at Gui Ying, Gui Ying blinked and gave him a reassuring look, Xiao Xia was still not very relieved, so he asked: "Princess, don't you like it?" ”

Anping glanced up at Xiao Xia, and suddenly stomped his feet happily: "I like it, I like it, I like it!" I like this kind of bright little bead the most, I took a fancy to it when the envoy of the Western Regions gave it to my father last time, and I specially asked my father for it.

But the father said fiercely with a straight face: What kind of glass beads do girls play? It's something that boys play with, and they mumble a lot! I didn't expect this bead to be in your hands! ”

An Ping glanced at Xiao Xia dissatisfied, pouted and muttered: "My father is really partial, he doesn't give it to the third brother, you are different and you are a woman, why doesn't the third brother give it to you?" Dislike! ”

Concubine Shi glanced at him with disgust: "Nonsense! Your father is right, if you are a girl, you should do a girl's thing. ”

"But she is also a woman, why did the third brother give it to her?"

"This ......" Concubine Shi glanced at Xiao Xia: "Anping, don't mess around, the concubine gave you something, since you like it, thank you, thank you!" ”

An Ping flattened his mouth, when he didn't hear it, he sat back with the box, picked up the beads and held them up in the air to look at them, and muttered: "It's good to be an emperor, what do you want to do?" Why am I not a boy anymore? Dislike! ”

Everyone looked at Anping when they heard the difference, and Concubine Shi also changed her face, and raised her voice and reprimanded: "Anping! ”

"What are you doing? What am I doing wrong again? Why are you so fierce? ”

"You...... Have you forgotten what your mother taught you? Give me a back and reflect well! ”

An Ping flattened his mouth and put the box away: "Go back, go back, do you think I'm rare?" It's not like you forced me to come, what kind of concubine to see, that's just it! I'm leaving, you guys talk slowly! ”

An Ping swaggered towards the door with the box in her arms, looking at her bouncing appearance, she seemed to be in a good mood, and she didn't listen to Concubine Shi's words at all.

Xiao Xia silently looked at the bottom of her heart, this Anping is a spoiled princess, and Concubine Shi is not a good stubble, although I don't understand why Concubine Shi is targeting herself, why she has to wander around when she becomes a concubine? Anyway, be careful in the future.

As soon as Princess Anping left, Concubine Shi lost her mind, and looked out of the door from time to time, waiting for the concubines present to greet each other and introduce themselves, Xiao Xia also appreciated things, and Concubine Shi got up to say goodbye.

As soon as Concubine Shi left, the other concubines naturally had no reason to stay, and followed Concubine Shi out one after another.

Xiao Xia personally sent it to the gate of the palace to see the sky, and it had been more than an hour.

Mrs. Liang stood beside Xiao Xia and whispered, "Xiao Xia, the emperor is too fond of you. That's a good thing, but you have to be careful! ”

Xiao Xia looked back at Mrs. Liang and saw the care in her eyes. Xiao Xia nodded: "Yes, mother, I know." ”

"Alas, I didn't know that you would enter the palace, let alone that you would be where you are today, otherwise my mother would have taught you more things."

Xiao Xia smiled: "Thank you mother, I have learned a lot from my mother's side before." I'll be careful myself, my mother doesn't have to worry. ”

The two gossiped a few more words, and Mrs. Liang was in a hurry to leave the palace and return home. said that he was worried about his grandson, Xiao Xia immediately remembered Miao Dandan when he heard this, the once proud Miss Jiao. Thinking about Su Linglong's words again, Xiao Xia suddenly felt ashamed in his heart.

"Mother. Sister-in-law...... Okay? ”

"Alas. It's not good or bad. ”

"How?"

"This ...... It's a long story, no, Xiao Xia, I really have to go back for my mother, your father and eldest brother are not in the house, in case Dandan gets sick again, it will be troublesome, and my mother will come to see you in a few days! ”

Watching Mrs. Liang leave in a hurry, she seemed to be really anxious. Xiao Xia was suspicious in her heart and muttered in a low voice: "Why is my mother so anxious." ”

"!"

Xiao Xia turned around: "Gui Ying." You know? ”

Gui Ying's eyes flickered, and she glanced out of the door: "Niangniang, it's time for you to eat, why don't we go back to the apse, and listen to the slave and maid slowly while eating?" ”

Xiao Xia thought about it, and was really a little hungry: "It's okay, ask someone to close the palace gate, if there are visitors, they will say that I am tired and resting." ”

When he returned to the apse, Gui Ying took Gui Lan to serve in person, Gui Fang and Gui Xiang were sent to wait outside the door, Gui Ying said slowly while giving Xiao Xia Bu vegetables:

"Miss, a few days after the second young grandmother was kicked out of the Liang Mansion, the eldest young grandmother began to fall ill."

"What disease?"

"This ...... The slave and maid couldn't say clearly, I heard that in the middle of the night, the young grandmother suddenly yelled, like a crazy demon, grabbed a pair of scissors and rushed out, just at that time the little master was crying, and the young grandmother actually grabbed the scissors and rushed into the little master's room to poke the little master! If it weren't for the nurse's desperate protection, maybe ......"

Xiao Xia opened her mouth in surprise: "What? Sister-in-law did it to her own son? How can it be? ”

"Yes, tiger poison doesn't eat children, no one believes it, if it weren't for the slave maid who saw the mad demon of the young grandmother with her own eyes, the slave wouldn't believe it."

"You saw it with your own eyes?"

"The slave and maid didn't see the young grandmother hurt the little master, but the slave and maid bumped into it once when the eldest and young grandmother was sick, and she was really scary like that, even if the slave and maid practiced martial arts since childhood, they were negligent at that time, and they were almost injured by the young grandmother."

"Huh? So powerful? ”

Gui Ying nodded: "I don't know why, the eldest young grandmother is usually weak, and when she is sick, she has a lot of strength, no matter how desperate she rushes up, ordinary people are afraid that three or five may not be able to restrain her!" ”

Xiao Xia frowned and muttered, "How can this be?" Have you seen it? ”

"Please, all the doctors who can be invited have been invited, and the emperor has sent all the imperial doctors in the palace to see it, but I can't see the cause of the disease, I only say that it may be that the young grandmother was stimulated and became ill, and she can only recuperate slowly, and it can't be cured for a while."

Xiao Xia remembered what kind of tea Su Linglong said, when Su Linglong drugged Miao Dandan, not only made Miao Dandan lose her fertility but also damaged her mind, could it be the sequelae caused by the drug? Or is it that she has not yet cleared up the poison? Could it be that the Liang family still doesn't know about this?

Xiao Xia glanced at Gui Ying and asked tentatively: "Gui Ying, before Su Linglong left the Liang Mansion...... Did you say anything? ”

"What do you mean, Miss?"

"For example...... For example, confession of guilt and so on. ”

Gui Ying thought for a while: "This ...... I heard that when the second young grandmother confessed, only the eldest young master, the second young master and the old man were present, and she did admit her guilt, otherwise the old master and the eldest young master would not be so angry, and even the second young master would not protect her......"

Gui Ying paused, glanced at Xiao Xia, and then remembered that Su Linglong replaced Xiao Xia, she had to add: "Miss, I mean, the second young master probably knew her identity at that time, and then ......."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you know it or not, what did they say at the time, you know?"

Gui Ying shook her head: "There are no outsiders in the room, after that time, the master directly asked people to tie up the second young grandmother and gag her mouth and send it to the mansion." ”

Xiao Xia lowered her eyebrows, is this so, then Su Linglong probably didn't say anything about drugging Miao Dandan, no wonder it would be like this, if the crux is really here, it should have an effect if the next time the doctor goes to see a doctor, it should have an effect, but poor Miao Dandan was proud for a while, but she didn't expect it to end up like this, and she didn't even know who hurt her, alas!

"Miss, don't sigh, let's eat!"

Xiao Xia didn't eat two bites, and saw Gui Fang come in to report: "Niangniang, there is a word from outside, and Concubine Su asks to see you." ”

Xiao Xia raised her head: "Su Concubine? ”

"Yes, sis."

Xiao Xia thought about it, didn't Su Lingman come with Concubine Shi before? What is she doing again? I don't have a relationship with her now, so it's the first time I've met!

She ...... Alone? ”

"I brought a personal palace maid, no one else, she said that the things that Fang Cai Niangniang rewarded were too valuable, and she couldn't repay them, so she brought a few small purses embroidered by herself, to see if there was anything that Niangniang liked?"

Xiao Xia lowered her eyebrows, Su Lingman's embroidery is really good, is she trying to please herself? Oh, this girl......

"Let her wait in the front hall for a while, and I'll go over when I'm done eating."

"Yes!"

Watching Gui Fang leave, Gui Ying asked in a low voice: "Niangniang, do you still want to deal with the Su family?" ”

Xiao Xia looked up at him: "Can't you?" ”

"It's not no, Niangniang, the lord once let go, whoever is friendly with the Su family is the enemy of the Liang family, not to mention that this is in the palace, your current identity, I'm afraid to associate with her...... It's not a good fit! ”

Xiao Xia knew that what Gui Ying said made sense, but Su Lingman had always been a cowering and pitiful little girl in her impression, this matter had nothing to do with her, so why implicate her?

"Mother?"

"I know that I have measure, so I should be ...... Ordinary concubines come and go! ”

Two quarters of an hour later, Xiao Xia had dinner, changed into a set of clothes and came to the front hall unhurriedly, as expected, Su Lingman was honestly sitting in the hall with his head bowed and waiting, without the slightest impatience.

After Xiao Xia took a seat, Su Lingman stood up and bowed, and then held a tray with seven or eight small purses with exquisite workmanship and cute shapes.

Su Lingman stood in front of Xiao Xia with his head bowed while holding the tray: "Guifei Niangniang, this is a small purse made by the concubine herself, and it can't be put on the table, if the concubine has something she likes, or has a pattern she wants, the concubine can do it, and please don't dislike it." ”

Xiao Xia glanced at it, picked out a purse like a rabbit and looked over and over in his hand: "It's good, the workmanship is exquisite, and the shape is also ingenious, this is what you made yourself?" ”

Su Lingman was obviously very happy, "Yes, Niangniang, if you like it, the concubine will do more." ”

"No, I don't use this stuff much."

Su Lingman was stunned for a moment, her face changed with a brush, Xiao Xia saw her loss, and did not comfort her, handed the purse to Gui Ying, and then looked at Su Lingman and said gently: "Su Concubine, you should not just send a purse here, right?" ”

Su Lingman was stunned for a moment, glanced at Xiao Xia and quickly avoided it, she hesitated slightly, handed the tray to the palace maid behind her, and then lifted the hem of her skirt and knelt in front of Xiao Xia and kowtowed: "Guifei Niangniang, the concubine is here to ask for sin." (To be continued.) )
