Chapter 128: Palpitations
Concubine Xian's words are also in her words, and her meaning is very clear, when she saw Concubine Xian and the others walking away, Nan Zhi helped Qin Shujiu to get up, and then said: "Sister, Concubine Xian's mother has a bit of a warning this time. The words were slightly cold and said lightly, it was this that Qin Shujiu listened to it, and couldn't help but smile and then replied: "It's just a bit of a warning?" ”
The words were already cold, Concubine Hou Xian was obviously concerned about her poisonous body, but in fact, she was angry because of Liqing's pet and took the opportunity to find trouble for herself. Fortunately, she was used to being a small dress, but she also asked Concubine Hou Xian to accept a lot of displeasure for the time being.
However, her attitude just now is also clear, now Qin Shujiu is a thorn in her side, if she takes a few more looks, she is afraid that she will be unhappy in her heart. In the past, she was used to being humble, and because she was humble, she was inconspicuous, but now the situation has changed, even if she still wants to convince Xiao, she is afraid that in the eyes of others, she is no longer the second daughter of Qin Shangshu who is new to the palace and everything is easy-going and indisputable. All the people in the palace who are overly favored will eventually become the target of the public, that is, this shape has changed, and people's wrists have to change with it.
After Concubine Xian left, she was relieved and relaxed, and she helped Qin Shujiu to serve carefully, Nanzhi said: "Sister, do you think that when Concubine Xian mentioned the poisoning of her sister just now, her words always make people feel a little wrong. Originally, he was careful to serve and never spoke, but after being quiet for a while, he suddenly opened his mouth and said something that made Qin Shujiu feel a little surprised, so he responded: "Something is wrong." ”
I always felt a little wrong in my heart, but when Qin Shujiu asked what was wrong, she couldn't say it, so she was stunned and stopped there, frowning and thinking for a long time before Nan Zhi said: "If you want to ask what's wrong, I can't say it at this time, but I just think that my sister's poison this time is inseparable from Concubine Hou Xian." ”
Nan Zhi's words were straightforward, and at the moment he pointed out that Concubine Xian had a connection with Hook Kiss Incense, it was Nan Zhi's straightforward suspicion that made Qin Shujiu pause, looked back at her and frowned at her for a long time, Qin Shujiu asked, "Why do you think so?" ”
After inquiry, Nanzhi replied: "Although hook kiss incense is not the supreme poison in the world, it is also a rare poison that will die. But Concubine Xian's tone when she mentioned her sister's poisoning had no fear of it, but made people feel that she was sorry, which made people feel sorry. After a pause, Qin Shujiu nodded and motioned for her to continue.
After seeing Qin Shujiu nodding his head, Nan Zhi continued: "Not only that, but when it comes to the imperial physician Ling Cheng personally detoxifying and recuperating for his sister. Concubine Hou Xian looked very annoyed. ”
"Annoyance should also be, if what kind of poison falls into Ling Cheng's hands in this world, it will be relieved by eight points, if she is the one who poisoned her, she should be annoyed." Following Nanzhi's words, Qin Shujiu also responded, and Nanzhi nodded and said, "Anyway, I think that this time the hook kiss incense must be inseparable from Concubine Hou Xian." ”
The firm words also confirm this matter. It was Nan Zhi who was so firm that Qin Shujiu shook his head and then said: "To be honest, it's not just you, I also think that this matter is inseparable from Concubine Hou Xian, although I don't know where she learned that Her Majesty inquired about the matter of the Empress Lihou and I am the main recommendation of Concubine Zheng Guifei, but since she knows about this matter, she must obviously be disgusted with me." In addition, now my grace can be regarded as comparable to her, although our virtuous concubine has always looked at it with a gentle smile, not as cautious and dignified as Queen Zheng, nor as arrogant and arbitrary as Concubine Lide, but this belly full of vinegar is also great. In order to pull down Lai Zhaoyi's subordinates to her, she was attached to her, but now she has spoken for Empress Zheng, I am afraid that Concubine Hou Xian will think that we are the masters of eating inside and outside. I can't keep it in my heart. ”
I can't keep it and get rid of it, so as not to put it in front of myself and make myself in the way, Secretary Qin's words made Nan Zhi nod his head, and then said: "In this way, it is really her who did it?" A little bit of a matter was settled, but Nanzhi's affirmative inquiry was not recognized by Qin Shujiu again. For some reason, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and Qin Shujiu said.
"Although Concubine Hou Xian has such thoughts and such means, but she is like this, how can she calculate a qiē so accurately. The tea used for tea tasting was given by Empress Zheng to Min Jieyu herself, and no one knew who would touch which one was sent by the Shang Food Bureau. It was with so much uncertainty that she had done it. And let the princess die alone? ”
Although this matter seems to be reasonable everywhere, it is really unbearable to study it carefully, and it is always difficult for Qin Shujiu to find out.
Qin Shujiu is right, but there are many things that cannot be explained. It was Nan Zhi who asked her to say this was also confused, and immediately said: "If it is a coincidence or what kind of means are used, this matter is categorically inseparable from Concubine Hou Xian, Concubine Hou Xian has been in the palace for nearly ten years, and within these ten years, she should have inserted her own eyeliner in the palace, and it is obviously not that difficult thing to do something that others can't see the root cause." ”
Qin Shujiu nodded. Then he said: "Also, the women in this palace are the most changeable, if they really want to die alone, they can come up with thousands of methods." It's just that now we can only guess in our hearts but we can't find any feasible evidence, this matter has nothing to do with Concubine Hou Xian on the surface, and it has nothing to do with it from beginning to end. ”
After saying this, Nanzhi smiled, and said: "According to what my sister said, this time the grievances were swallowed in vain." ”
almost took Qin Shujiu's life, how could such a thing be in vain, just thinking about Qin Shujiu's suffering, Nan Zhi couldn't swallow this breath, he had to grit his teeth and straighten his heart to resent. The words of resentment fell in Qin Shujiu's ears, but Qin Shujiu smiled, looked at her and said: "What's the hurry, if people don't know unless they do it, no matter how superb their skills are, they will eventually leave clues and mistakes, I don't believe that this thing can really be done so unknowingly, but there is no clue left." ”
As long as you pass through, you will inevitably leave a trace, even if the trace is very hidden, but you can still find it.
Since he got off the sickbed and went out of the palace to travel, after a few days, Qin Shujiu's body has improved a lot, and now his complexion is as usual, but he can't see half of his sickness. After detoxification, she rested on the couch, although Su Die remembered it tightly, she didn't dare to run to her often, and she was also worried that her constant arrival would disturb Qin Shujiu's rest, and now her body was completely recovered, so that Su Die breathed a sigh of relief. After looking for a good weather, Su Die invited Qin Shujiu to go to the Imperial Garden to relax.
Su Die's invitation to Qin Shujiu would not appreciate his face, when he followed her to the Imperial Garden, the weather that was not wet or cold was the most suitable for travel, and the two invited each other to the garden. After a while, the body was also warm, so I stopped to rest for the time being, and took a rest in the pavilion in the garden.
Sitting on the pavilion railing and looking at the lush weeping willows not far away, Su Die said: "This day flies quickly. Somehow, a sigh made Qin Shujiu listen. At the moment, he responded: "Yes, this blink of an eye has entered summer again, and I think that when I am lying on the couch, it is not as good as spring, and this trance is more than a month has passed." ”
Time flies very quickly, that is, when you are not paying attention, you have quietly passed the years. Qin Shujiu's words replied to Su Die's sigh, but Fang Luo's words of exclamation saw Su Die turn her head, and her eyes fell on her body as if she was looking at something carefully. Su Die's silent look made Qin Shujiu feel a little strange, but he straightened up unnaturally, and then looked at himself, but he didn't notice that something was wrong before he asked.
"What's wrong with drinking too much? Why is my sister looking at it like this? He asked softly, and after asking, he saw Su Die sigh lightly, and then said, "You really scared me this time." The words made people instantly understand what she meant, and it was also clear to her heart, Qin Shujiu immediately smiled. couldn't help but smile lightly, and then Qin Shujiu said, "Sister, don't worry, I'm not good?" ”
"It's good for you to see it now, but do you know how my heart was stirring up at that time?" Now when she thinks back to that incident, Su Die still feels that her body is still trembling and tight, and the blood that vomited out repeatedly stained her clothes, and even her hands were stained red.
It was the first time that Su Die felt so dazzling that the whole body lost its temperature with the cold blood. Or maybe it's because Qin Shujiu is the only person in this palace who can be trusted by Su Die, and she really regards Qin Shujiu as a sister, so she will feel extremely terrible after seeing something like that.
Su Die's affection for himself Qin Shujiu understood it, so he smiled and said, "I'm worried about my sister." ”
It's useless to say more, just this sentence is enough. It was also this sentence that made Su Die laugh, it was still a little sad, but who knew that after listening to Qin Shujiu's words, he laughed. Pursing his lips, he smiled, and then stretched out his hand and directly twisted Qin Shujiu's cheek, Su Die said: "Since you know that I am worried, you will be cautious in the future." Don't let this happen. ”
The previous sentence seemed to have a joking smile, but the latter sentence was a deep admonition, and it was always that she had kept her heart around, but this time she saw Su Die's concern like an eldest sister, and Qin Shujiu's heart warmed at the moment, so she smiled and said, "Write it down." ”
can be regarded as the admonition in his heart. It was also after seeing Qin Shujiu and writing it down that Su Die was really relieved. It was a long sigh before he said: "In the future, the things sent by the Shang Food Bureau should really be well inspected, if you are not careful, who knows what will be mixed in the next meal." ”
"What else can be mixed with this, it shouldn't be mixed with poison that kills people every time." It was also made Su Die's awe-inspiring look amused, and Qin Shujiu responded to the sentence to ease the atmosphere, but who knew that Fang Luo saw Su Die's face sink and said softly: "It's hard to say." ”
It was just a sentence to make his mind clear, and seeing Su Die's face sank, Qin Shujiu suddenly showed his amazement, and then said: "Sister, there are some things that can't be said nonsense. ”
"Nonsense, I never talk nonsense." As soon as Qin Shujiu's words were finished, Su Die's volume was much higher because of the restlessness in his heart, and he looked at Qin Shujiu with a fixed look, Su Die said: "This harem is not as simple as having ears on the wall, there are all kinds of thoughts in the palace, you can guarantee that no one has hidden unsightly thoughts in their hearts." After the words fell, Qin Shujiu replied: "How could my sister sigh like this." ”
Su Die's temperament is the most straightforward, rarely heard such words, this time lying on the bed for more than a month did not see Qin Shujiu was a little surprised, it was to inquire, puzzled and puzzled, Su Die replied: "Such a thing is not that I am exaggerating, but this palace is really a place where you need to be cautious everywhere, that is, you are poisoned this time, I really think it is the fault of the cook of the Shangshi Bureau." ”
"What else?"
"I'm straight, but I'm not stupid, although I found the Shangshi Bureau all the way, but the chef of the Shangshi Bureau was killed by the trial, and the clues were broken like that. Can you trust such a coincidence? Anyway, I don't believe it, I'm afraid that the cook is just a ghost for the dead, and for someone to bear such a disaster. ”
This time, Su Die saw it clearly, and Qin Shujiu was amazed, it seems that in this polluted place of the harem, no matter how pure and good people are, they are afraid that they will be suspicious after a long time, so as not to be calculated. Su Die's words, Qin Shujiu didn't answer properly, but nodded in response, and when he heard Su Die's thoughts there, he saw someone walking towards him from a distance. Suddenly, seeing someone, Qin Shujiu immediately coughed.
Now Su Die is no longer the ignorant and reckless daughter who entered the palace, and she is busy closing her voice at the moment, but the two are pretending to chat casually, just chatting casually, and the person who came from afar is also close, and only after the person is close can he see the appearance of the person.
When he saw that the person who came was Master Weng, Su Die was slightly relieved and then smiled: "Since I am a teacher, I was scared into a cold sweat." For Su Die, Master Weng is also a sister in the palace that she regards as credible, and she is also casual about this sister, so Su Die breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the person who came was Master Weng. However, only Su Die was relieved in this breath, Qin Shujiu was not completely relaxed, although there was a warm smile on his face, but he still thought about it in his heart.
Qin Shujiu and Su Die were in this pavilion, and when they came over and entered the pavilion, they bowed and said, "The master has seen two sisters." Before the ceremony was over, Su Die was asked to stop, and when he looked at her, he said: "Why are there so many courtesies between sisters, it's not too tiring to always be so empty?" Come and sit down, the three of us sisters haven't sat together and chatted for a long time. ”
After entering the palace, they have their own bedrooms, especially the increasingly unequal grace in the palace, so that they are not as idle as when they first entered the palace. There is less time to sit down and talk in your spare time, not to mention that this time Qin Shujiu has suffered such a disaster, and he has never met for more than a month, and now it is also an accident to meet in this imperial garden, but he has to take this opportunity to chat.
There was no need for so much false courtesy between the sisters, just stopped Master Weng's bow and then motioned for her to sit on the opposite side, and Su Die pushed the cake cake that had been served at the beginning to Master Weng. (To be continued.) )
