It's the night of the black light and the blind fire exploring the road.

I had to be ordered yesterday, don't forget to follow to the palace temple. There is no one else here, only the ancestral tablet is gloomy and solemn, and it makes people feel chills behind their backs. Turning over the corner, lifting the roof, and testing with silver needles, there was nothing unusual, and after tossing until late at night, the two had no choice but to retreat.

It seems that there really is no hiding.

Don't forget to pat the good smell and dark fragrance left on his body in the palace and temple, and quickly flew back to Shen Shuzhao's bedroom.

As soon as she entered the door, the good concubine covered her nose with her sleeves and looked slightly hesitant. Shen Shuzhao saw it keenly and asked, "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

"Hmm......" The concubine put down her long sleeves, and the tip of her nose was slightly red, and people with clear eyes knew that it was allergic and uncomfortable.

"Sister feels something is wrong?"

"This smell...... I've been practicing medicine and perfumery for many years, but I've never smelled it. ”

After she frowned, the two people in front of her sniffed around suspiciously, and they didn't feel any pungent smell.

"Have you ever touched anything?" Shen Shuzhao said.

"I've visited every place in the temple's cabinet." Don't forget to tell the truth. In this way, it is a little difficult to investigate.

The good concubine stepped forward and sniffed slowly beside them, the faint fragrance was still there, and the nose was more sensitive, so it could be detected. She closed her eyes, perceiving the medicinal materials, as if filtering possible memories, and then, she still opened her eyes a little confused, she couldn't find it, this incense was too peculiar, she could usually tell the ingredients for any palace concubine's incense, but this one couldn't. Could it be ...... Not something from the palace?

As if to find the point, the good concubine lowered her head and thought deeply and said: "This incense is different from any incense I know in the book, you go to the palace again, take all the fragrant things and bring them over, and I will go back to the palace to make a decision." ”

Shen Shuzhao was surprised by her sudden aura, and even her subordinates couldn't help but say: "Once the good concubine takes what she is good at seriously, the whole person will be different." ”

This reminded the good concubine, she hurriedly put away all the sharp energy of Fang Cai, and replied shyly: "Where is it...... You say that these good lives make me overwhelmed, I have always had a peaceful life in this life, where can I compare with the vision of Shen Concubine's sister? I can't bear this praise. ”

"Thanks to your help, you deserve to bear this." Shen Shuzhao replied affirmatively, and then asked sideways, "Wei Yang, did you say yes?" ”

Wei Yang didn't know what to remember, "Hmm." Her reaction was cold, no, it should be said that she was hiding her thoughts, so she was a little distracted.

"Since the good concubine is so powerful, we will not let her down. Sister Mo, let's go back again, right? After his subordinates finished speaking, Mo Forget agreed and followed him out soon. When I returned from the second trip, the night was at the end of the night, and the dawn was approaching. The subordinates shook the things in their arms, and the coefficient fell, they were all ordinary things, pillars, red cloths, cup bottles, and even a handful of incense embers were brought over, Shen Shuzhao admired it. The good concubine sniffed slowly from left to right, and finally until she was in front of the red Buddha bead chain, she could smell the previous smell again, so she picked it up and looked at it carefully, the red Buddha bead chain was extremely ordinary, and the taste was also bland, but the aftertaste was not exhausted.

"Where did you get that?"

"The things in the cabinet behind the burning incense are full of boxes, and the slaves and maids only bring a bunch." The subordinate replied.

"It's the smell of this thing that makes it questionable."

"What?"

"It's just...... It doesn't seem to have been sent out, but left by contact. ”

"Do you want the slave to go back and bring the whole box over?"

"Excuse me, I'm afraid that the queen will find out." The concubine refused, she didn't know that her appearance at this time was observed by Shen Shuzhao and Wei Yang.

Don't forget to ask: "So what does the mother want to do?" ”

"Have you forgotten? Since it can dye the inside of the box with a strange fragrance, then the real ghost thing must look exactly like it, otherwise how could it be mixed in? After I returned to the palace, I was able to judge the book based on its appearance and color, and distinguish whether it was a good medicine or a bad medicine. ”

"I'll leave this matter to you." Shen Shuzhao said, "But ...... I have a good idea for my sister not to be so troublesome. ”

"What is it?"

For Shen Shuzhao's plan, the good concubine was convinced.

"When will my sister put on the incense?"

"Four days later, what's wrong?"

"I'll be in six days. Sister, you—would you like to exchange with me? ”

Four days have passed.

In the early morning, the palace temple ushered in the concubine as usual, burning incense and praying for blessings.

Only this time is different.

At the entrance of the temple, Shen Shuzhao's steps stopped, and she was supported by the palace maid and walked into the temple.

The nuns on both sides bowed their heads and bowed reverently.

No one is different.

It wasn't until she came down to the scriptures when she led the nun and picked up her pen to copy the scriptures for the ancestors of the Wei Dynasty, that almost all the people in the temple knew her. It didn't matter what I knew, and there was a nun behind my back who became nervous. Isn't this Shen Concubine, who only arrived six days later? Why did you come here early today?

She walked back in a panic, came into the cabinet with a strange look, and never came out after closing the door.

On the roof, lift a corner of the tiles.

The unusually moving nun was seen in the small corners above.

Open the mechanism, and take out something from the dark layer inside the box, a very small thing wrapped in a red handkerchief.

The nun removed the wrapper, and then the contents appeared, which turned out to be a bracelet with red Buddha beads, and after checking that it was correct, she carefully put it back inside.

Outside the cabinet, Shen Shuzhao calmly copied scriptures.

After a long two-pillar incense hour, she had almost copied it, had lunch, and then came back and continued to kneel on the ground and pray for the blessings of her ancestors and ancestors. After finishing a qiē, it was already dark, and the other palace concubines were dissatisfied with this errand. Shen Shuzhao was helped up by Xi Lu, and at this time, the nun walked in from outside and said decently: "Niangniang, please come with the poor nun." ”

In the cabinet, the nun took out the red Buddha bracelet from the red box with high incense sticking with blessings, and a faint cough came from outside the door, leading the voice to look, it turned out to be a good concubine who should come today. Shen Shuzhao hurriedly greeted him worriedly: "Why is my sister here?" Didn't my sister say that my sister won't use it today? ”

"You......" The concubine's lips turned slightly pale, and she looked like she had just recovered from a serious illness, "Shangxiang prays for the first emperor to see the spirit of the heavens, how dare the concubine excuse herself because of her own illness and bother her sister to come?" ”

"My sister is really weak, and she has a fever today, and the first emperor will understand the reason why my sister really can't come. Sister, don't worry, my sister has already done everything for you. ”

"W-How?" Concubine Liang couldn't hide her surprise, she was kind, she never thought that Concubine Shen would finish these things for herself.

Shen Shuzhao smiled, "The matter of burning incense and copying scriptures has been done, and now my sister will send her sister to receive the blessing bracelet to return to the palace." ”

"Today is the concubine on duty, but I bother my sister again, cough ......" The good concubine took out the embroidered handkerchief and coughed, "Hiiragi, go and bring the red Buddha's hand." ”

"Okay."

"Wait—" the nun snapped.

All three of them were stunned, what was going on?

The nuns were very angry with them, but they still endured it, "The two donors, the Red Buddha Bracelet is the most respected monk in the temple, and the temple rules are in order. ”

"How strict?" Shen Shuzhao was dissatisfied.

"Don't embarrass the poor nuns, the good concubines and poor nuns are sick and the poor nuns see it in their eyes, it's just ...... The temple rules are the temple rules, and the good concubines really can't receive them. ”

"That's it, I don't want this palace, anyway, this palace and the concubine will come again in two days. Let's go, sister, sister help you back? ”

"Uh-huh......" Concubine coughed weakly.

The nun watched them walk away, her expression like a thick fog that could not be dissolved, and she turned around and took the precious thing into her arms while everyone was away, and left the cabinet with palpitations. As for the rooftop, the snooping man could see it all clearly.

Time passed in a blink of an eye, and this time was the real day when Shen Shuzhao entered the palace temple.

This nun has been waiting at the door for a long time, for fear that there will be another mistake in it.

Fortunately, Shen Shuzhao arrived as promised, although she was followed by a good concubine, but she was relieved.

After being busy for a long time, the nun handed over the red Buddha bracelet that had been hidden for a long time to Shen Shuzhao. And she, looking at the red and shiny Buddha beads on her wrist, did not say much, but politely thanked her, and the nun was deeply fortunate, and after instructing her to say a few words that must not be taken off, she sent her away. The nun stayed at the edge of the temple gate and watched Shen Shuzhao go back wearing this thing with her own eyes, until Buyu disappeared at the end, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked back.

On the foot, Shen Shuzhao and Concubine Liang each wore a handkerchief on their hands, and there was no difference in appearance. Shen Shuzhao turned the Buddha jade on his wrist boredly, and said, "You want to send me away with the forbidden medicine outside the palace?" The Shaw family is too underestimated. ”

The body kept shaking, and the good concubine on the sedan chair next to her was not far from her, and she couldn't help but sigh after hearing it: "If it weren't for the fact that the eldest princess's subordinates secretly took it out at night and sent it to the imperial doctor for identification, they wouldn't have found out that this was actually an aphrodisiac forbidden drug." The queen was able to get such a powerful and despicable thing from outside the palace, how despicable the means were, I thought she was a decent person, but I was really disappointed. ”

"Do you really want to be her mother?" Shen Shuzhao turned the red Buddha hand back to its original position and wrote lightly: "Why do many concubines in the Sixth Palace have no heirs for two years? One of the reasons is headed by her. ”

"It's hard for my sister to mean ......"

"Exactly what you think."

"What? I used to think she was a dignified and elegant person. ”

"But you also know that anyone in that position, with the Queen Mother in front and the family in the back, will not let the person sitting on it be too kind."

"Sister's words reminded me of a long-standing doubt," Concubine Liang looked at Shen Shuzhao with a look of see-through look at the queen, she didn't understand why she seemed to know so well, "My sister seems to have always understood the queen's temperament very well, and can understand ...... Her suffering? ”

"Considerate?" Shen Shuzhao laughed.

"Looks like I misunderstood." The good concubine said timidly, for fear of saying the wrong thing and making Shen Shuzhao unhappy.

Shen Shuzhao knew that she was introverted and sensitive, so she might have been sarcastic, so she apologized: "Sister, don't forget your heart." The reason why my sister is able to understand her is because her current situation is much more difficult than ours-"

"You are very favored when you enter the palace, and it is understandable that the queen can't sit still, no wonder she will find the concubine as an internal response."

"The identity of the concubine is the biggest threat to the queen's position, once I lose power, the concubine will become the second, but the Son of Heaven has no feelings for her, and she doesn't even have a bed, and it's only a matter of time before the queen takes the opportunity to get rid of her."

"Yes...... Concubine Yuan is now in private contact with the queen, you and I can't find a way to stop it, why don't my sister report to the queen mother? ”

"I have my own way of making them both understand." Shen Shuzhao suddenly showed a sly smile, which made the concubine confused, and finally she slowly spit out these words: "The red Buddha bracelet containing the love beads was later put back in by them, but it was exchanged with the position of the concubine on the side." ”

The concubine was shocked and asked, "Concubine?" Could it be? ”

"It's her."

Shen Shuzhao said lightly:

"Concubine Yuan."

"It turns out that my sister wants to put that string of red Buddha beads on her hand—" Liang Concubine

"My sister understands people. As for the rest of the scenes, let the two of them sing it. ”

After settling down, Shen Shuzhao said that he would do it.

In the rest of the days, she bumped into her eldest sister when she asked the Queen Mother for peace, and always inadvertently exposed the red Buddha bracelet on her wrist, either by cutting her hair and sideburns, or by deliberately raising her hand, so as to ensure that Shen Zhuangzhao saw the success of the queen's plan with his own eyes. Sure enough, when Shen Zhuangzhao saw her passing by, his gaze slanted down and looked at the thing on his wrist.

The queen did it.

The second sister must not take it off these days.

Concubine Yuan smiled, and her mood improved. Speaking of which, it seems that the day after tomorrow it will be your turn to go to the palace?
