Chapter 183: If you are beautiful, you will be strong!
Touching his chin and saying, this is a domino, and it will fall down......
Ahhh......h Looks like it's going to be tomorrow.
It's the end of the month, so let's fly into the bowl with monthly passes......
------Off topic------
"This palace is not trying to shield anyone...... It's just that you don't wait, Xia Chu doesn't disdain to be my wife, I just beg her, and she doesn't want to, why is she jealous and murdering the emperor's heir? She couldn't do that. Because, with just one word from her, I will. β
Some people are crying, some people are persuading, and Xia Chuqi was slightly surprised when he heard it in his ears. She squinted slightly and looked at the past, and accidentally bumped into Zhao Mianze's bottomless eyes. I wanted to find out, but he slowly slid away, and the whole thing was settled.
"Imperial grandson, don't be like this."
"Mianze...... Woo......"
In a word, the hall gasped.
"I believe her."
Zhao Mianze didn't look at her, just looked at Xia Chuqi who was smiling slightly.
"Mianze, how can you cover up here?" Xia Wenqiu's tone was choked, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he was in pain, "She killed her, but it's our child!" β
"Your Highness......" An old minister of the Zhan Mansion whispered in surprise.
"Come on, put Wang Xiaoshun and Deng Hong in the prison of the Criminal Department for retrial. It's late tonight, "I'm going to read the novel ybdu, let's go back and rest.,Other things.,I'll talk about it tomorrow.γ β
After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked around at everyone, and said in a deep tone.
Zhao Mianze kept looking at Xia Chuqi, she smiled, she pursed her lips, she frowned, her every move...... It's all too indifferent, so indifferent that he is a little annoyed. He didn't want to admit it, for a moment, he really wanted her to admit that it was because of jealousy and injustice, so he deliberately changed Qiu'er's medicinal materials. But she said that she didn't, she didn't disdain jealousy at all, and even "kindly" helped Qiu'er induce labor, just like she was just an ordinary person, and it didn't matter at all.
"There's no need to worry about Imperial Doctor Sun." Xia Chuqi smiled lightly, "Let's listen to what the imperial grandson says." Although there are witnesses, which one of these can stand up to scrutiny. Glancing at Zhao Mianze, her eyebrows were full of flowers, and she smiled again, "The emperor's grandson is highly knowledgeable, and he will distinguish between right and wrong." β
Seeing Xia Chuqi's eyes cold, he swallowed the "Nineteenth Master" alive, and changed his words, "I have no face to see...... The ancestors of my grandson's family are the ancestors. β
Sun Zhengye turned his head with red eyes, and said in a dumb voice: "Seventh Miss, the old man has never done such a thing that has lost his conscience. But if you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse, and the old man is wronged, but now he has let you suffer from this, and I really have no face to see it......"
"When a husband does something, how can he make his relatives hurt and his enemies happy?"
Xia Chu's seven eyes were quick, and he grabbed his sleeve, smiling every word, but it was extremely cold.
"Imperial Doctor Sun, what are you doing here?!"
With that, he turned his head and slammed into the wall.
"Soldiers can be killed, not humiliated, the old man has practiced medicine and sought benevolence all his life, and he does not dare to disobey the medical training and medical ethics of his ancestors...... There is no way to live, only one death to prove innocence. β
A series of three rhetorical questions, especially the sentence "What is the unseemly relationship", was even more sarcastic, hearing Sun Zhengye's old face flushed, as if he couldn't bear her insult, he sighed, suddenly lifted the corner of his clothes, stood up, and glared at her angrily.
Xia Wenqiu's eyes flashed with hatred, and he smiled coldly, "Imperial Doctor Sun, you don't have to act coy here. There are human and material evidence, the facts are in front of you, you are still biting to death for this woman, what is it for? What does she have to do with you? Do you know how guilty it is to murder the emperor's heir? I advise you, or just recruit from the truth. β
In the bee-like "buzzing" sound, Sun Zhengye's face became more and more pale, he bowed his hands, his body trembled, and his words pointed directly at Xia Wenqiu, "Concubine Taisun, the old man who practiced medicine for a lifetime, asked himself about his innocence and benevolence, and never did anything that hurt heaven and reason...... You believe in old decay, and you have never instigated Wang Xiaoshun to harm you......"
Some people even demanded that the imperial grandson must be punished severely in order to show virtue.
The people in the hall nodded their heads and said "yes", and the unified spearhead was all pointed at Xia Chuqi.
Even if he is the emperor, when making decisions, he cannot ignore the opinions of others.
Although Zhao Mianze is a prince, he is not an emperor yet.
She is very aggressive.
Xia Wenqiu's eyebrows jumped, and he glanced deeply at Li, although he didn't know why she wanted to help herself, but he still followed her words and said, "Mianze, everyone's eyes are bright, you don't want to blindly favor her because you like Seventh Sister." With so many sisters and adults here today, how convincing can you do that? β
Li smiled and added in a low voice, "The lice on the bald man's head are obvious." β
"It must be her after all, don't be deceived by her......"
Zhao Mianze said "um", her eyes sharpened, she felt speechless, quickly closed her mouth, and swallowed the rest of the words.
"Mianze!" Xia Wenqiu screamed, intercepted his words, trembled his pale lips, pointed at Xia Chuqi, and hated non-stop, "How can you trust her so gullible?" Think about it, before she entered the East Palace, our child had been doing well, and she entered the East Palace, and then got Sun Zhengye into the pharmacy, and I had abdominal pain day by day, which is why this happened. Who else but her? Mianze, don't be confused, she clearly hates me, hates you, and hates us at the beginning......"
"Okay, I'm sure you'......"
These three words, she said categorically, there is no emotion, just a statement. Zhao Mianze's eyes were heavy, he was silent for a while, nodded with difficulty, and to everyone's surprise, his voice softened.
"I didn't."
Xia Chuqi's heart sank slightly, raised his chin, and looked at his eyes steadily.
This sentence, he asked too directly.
There was silence all around.
"You hate me...... Deliberately? β
Zhao Mianze rubbed his forehead, he didn't know what he thought, his mood seemed to be a little anxious, but his tone was quite calm.
"But it's okay to ask."
Glancing at the people in the hall, Xia Chuqi pursed his lips slightly.
"Xiao Qi, I only ask you one word."
Zhao Mianze frowned, stretched out his hand to hug her, called twice, but didn't see her respond, and quickly called Lin Baoji, who had been kneeling on the ground, over. In the process of "rescue", he didn't speak, just looked at Xia Wenqiu, until she woke up again, and pulled his clothes, asking him to make decisions for the child. He sighed faintly, changed his face, and looked at Xia Chuqi who was smiling.
"Qiu'er?"
Zhao Mianze glanced at her lightly, there seemed to be displeasure on his face, and he was about to scold, but where did Xia Wenqiu allow him to cover up like this? In front of the auxiliary ministers of the East Palace and the officials of Zhan Shi, she sobbed a few times, whimpered and half-lay on the desk, as if she could not support it anymore, shouted "My child", and fainted miserably.
However, with her provocative explanation, Xia Chuqi's "motive for committing the crime" became clearer.
This is completely a person who adds fuel to the fire.
"Concubine Taisun, you are too good, you talk about sisterhood with others, don't others need to tell you? Why don't you want to be a lady? Aren't you waiting for your child to be aborted, so that you can be a grandchild? β
Her merciless cold words, coupled with her excellent dress, have long made several side ladies standing on the side resentful, plus they have long heard that the emperor's grandson favors her to heaven, and now seeing this situation, people can't help but believe the rumors. Xie sneered, Ding was displeased, and Li was even more sarcastic.
"I advise you to cry less, lest you hurt your eyes and hurt your body."
At the beginning of summer, the tips of the seven eyebrows moved slightly, still silent.
"Seventh sister, even if the third sister usually has something that can't stand you...... You come to me. It's okay to scold me or beat me...... Why do you have to be so cruel to my child? I think he's been four months now, and I'll be able to see his father and mother soon, and he's going to call you aunt too...... Adults are at fault, how innocent are children, how can you give birth, how can you give birth to it? Woo......"
Slightly stunned, she broke down and sobbed lowly, wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, glared at her with a sad expression, and cried bitterly.
When it came to the end, she dared to be so sharp-tongued, Xia Wenqiu really didn't expect it.
"Concubine Taisun, the woman has just been misborn, her pulse is astringent and blood is weak, it is better to be quiet and not to move, so you shouldn't sit here and get angry. If the evil qi enters the body, the qi will attack the heart, and then the light ones will be dizzy, vomit and cough up phlegm, and the heavy ones will stop menstruation and die...... I'm so angry, I'm so angry that I have closed my menstruation, and I can't draw more? β
A group of people all knelt on the ground, but Xia Chuqi stood alone with a bewitching demeanor. Zhao Mianze didn't let her kneel, she didn't kneel, she didn't even ask for peace. When others were talking, she just kept smiling, not interjecting, not bothering, more like a real bystander than others, without showing any timidity. However, now that Xia Wenqiu asked, she still turned her head and looked at her quietly.
"Seventh sister, the evidence is conclusive, do you have anything to say?"
"Where did the wild girl come from, don't you shut up?" Xia Wenqiu had found that this woman was staring at Zhao Mianze's stupid gaze before, but now seeing her lying on the hall, she glanced at Zhao Mianze's unpredictable face, and opened a pair of eyes that were red from crying, and looked at Xia Chuqi sadly, her voice choked and painful.
"There is nothing at all. His Royal Highness, the people really don't have it, I haven't seen Chu Qi for two years......"
Probably Gu Ajiao has grown so big, and she has never seen this kind of person who opens her eyes and talks nonsense, and will take revenge, in Deng Hong's innocent and honest accusations, she has a fair and beautiful little face, she is red with anger, and her head shakes violently.
Deng Hong lowered his head, "Gu, Miss Gu...... Yes, I'm sorry...... It's small, it's small, and I don't dare to lie......"
Gu Ajiao didn't know why at all, and looked at Deng Hong with anxious eyes, "Deng Hong, you bastard, I am kind enough to take you in and give you a bite to eat, but you are telling me to harm me!" β
Everyone in the Yuanlin Hall felt that they had a bottom in their hearts, and several side concubines whispered with disdain.
The testimony of a stranger who suddenly crashes into, most of the time, is more credible.
Kneeling on the ground, he had a white face, trembling and stammering for a long time. But what he said was consistent with Wang Xiaoshun's. He said that it was indeed Wang Xiaoshun who came to Jishitang first and knocked on the door, and then he thought it was a night clinic and opened the door. After hearing the reason, he invited Wang Xiaoshun to sit down, and then went to the backyard to call Gu Ajiao out. And that handwritten letter, he also saw it himself, it was indeed Wang Xiaoshun who handed it over to Gu Ajiao.
He had never entered the palace, and when he saw the battle in the Yuanlin Hall, he was so frightened that he was about to be paralyzed.
Jingshi City was so big, Jiao Yu rode out alone, and after a while, he brought Deng Hong, who was on duty at night, over.
"Jiao Yu, go, bring Deng Hong to the palace."
With a soft "oh", Gu Ajiao stopped her mouth in embarrassment, only listening to his deep command.
"If it has nothing to do with it, it doesn't have to be said."
As soon as she spoke, Zhao Mianze seemed impatient and frowned.
Gu Ajiao subconsciously raised her head, and looked at Zhao Mianze's handsome and moist face, her originally pale face was slightly red, and her heart was beating wildly, and she finally organized a smooth language, "Back to the emperor's grandson, the person with a black mole on his chin stammers...... Yes. His name is Deng Hong, and he is a new guy from Jishitang, and he is on duty in Jishitang tonight. The daughter and her father came to Beijing to join the relatives of Jinyi Mansion, because her aunt didn't like it, it was not good to live in her uncle's house, and she had been living in the backyard of Jishitang, firstly, in order to keep the medicine shop, and secondly, her father could also see a doctor for someone who sought medical treatment late at night, so tonight was Jishitang's ......"
"Miss Gu, is there such a person in the house?"
Zhao Mianze's eyebrows were raised lightly, he couldn't see emotion on his face, and after a pause, he looked at Gu Ajiao.
"Yes, there is one." Wang Xiaoshun said busily as if he had just remembered, "There is a person on night duty in Jishitang, a tall and thin man, with a black mole on his chin, and he stammered a little, it was he who opened the door for the little one, and called Miss Gu from the backyard." β
"Well, that makes sense." Zhao Mianze's voice was extremely soft, but the corners of his lips were a lot colder, "Then when you entered Jishitang late at night, no one else saw it except for Miss Gu?" β
"Back to the emperor's grandson, when the little one was in Jishitang, he had already handed over the handwritten letter to Miss Gu...... How to get it? β
Wang Xiaoshun was a little afraid of Zhao Mianze, shrunk his neck, buried his head, and was so low that he was about to fall into the crotch of his pants.
"Wang Xiaoshun, you said that Sun Zhengye gave you a handwritten letter from Miss Seven, where is the handwriting? Take it to the main palace to see. β
Zhao Mianze said "um" lightly, his brows loosened slightly, and he looked at Wang Xiaoshun coldly.
Seeing the two of them arguing, Zhao Mianze frowned and was silent for a long time. Gu Ajiao had been kneeling on the ground before, not daring to raise her head, but now that the situation is like this, in order to save her life, she had to kowtow fiercely, and her pale face justified, "The imperial grandson, the people's daughter and Miss Seven and the imperial doctor Sun know each other, but they don't know this Wang Xiaoshun, and they don't know how he can appear in the ear room of Jishitang." That ear room, except for the occasional use of the subordinate when he is on duty at night, is usually empty, please let the imperial grandson know what is going on, and give justice to the people......"
"I think you clearly deliberately planted it!" Sun Zhengye said hatefully, "The old man still wants to ask you, who instructed you to say this?" What's the intention? β
"Master Sun, you can't deny it like this, the little one has no grievances with the princess, if it weren't for your instructions, how could I harm the little prince in her belly?" Wang Xiaoshun knelt on the ground, crying, and wiped his tears, "The imperial grandson spares his life, and the concubine spares his life...... The little ones are innocent, and they are all deceived by the traitors to make great mistakes......"
Sun Zhengye was extremely angry, blowing his beard and glaring at his eyes, "You are so vicious, don't you want to frame Miss Seven?" β
"Master Sun, didn't you say that Miss Seven asked you to do it?" Wang Xiaoshun bit to death this sentence.
"Whew!" Sun Zhengye's face was full of anger, and he spat him, but he couldn't breathe anywhere, "Okay, you are a shameless boy, you are a talent in vain, but I didn't expect you to be such a bloody talent." When did the old man instruct you to change the yam to smallpox pollen? When did you send a letter to Miss Seven, and when did you go to Jirentang to find Miss Gu? β
"Master Sun, help me...... It was you who instructed me...... How can you deny it now and blame me for everything? β
"Miss Seven......" saw a woman with such a vicious tongue as her for the first time, Wang Xiaoshun was defeated when he couldn't talk to her, and turned his head to Sun Zhengye.
"Come on, I'm not your ancestor, you don't have to ask me for mercy."
There was another burst of "sneering" laughter, I don't know which people made it, Wang Xiaoshun's face turned pale, he knew that he was fast, and hurriedly rounded the field, "The little one is too nervous...... It's an eighty-year-old grandmother......"
At the beginning of the summer, he was happy, and waved his flowing cuffs, "Laughing to death, how old are you this year?" Eighty-year-old mother, how old is your father? Is there still a fertility function? β
"Miss Seven, you save the little one, the little one does this, but it's all for you. Didn't you tell Master Sun that with the support of the emperor's grandson, nothing would happen? How can it be ...... now? Woo, Miss Seven, I still have an eighty-year-old lady at home to raise ......."
Being cared for by him coldly, Wang Xiaoshun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly frightened the six gods, nervously "tom tom" knocked his head on the spot twice, and turned his head to Xia Chuqi, and he was impatient to testify.
"Say, why do you slander Miss Seven?"
Zhao Mianze coughed lightly in embarrassment, looked at her for a moment, and looked at Wang Xiaoshun, the medicine envoy who was kneeling in the hall.
There was a low "poof" sound, and some people in the hall couldn't help laughing and laughing.
"I'm not a profiteer selling counterfeit medicines, should I know?"
Xia Chuqi raised his chin, and the corners of his lips pulled a mocking smile, and he answered as a matter of course.
"You don't know about replacing the yam in the tocolytic medicine with smallpox pollen?"
Zhao Mianze's deep dark eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze was fixed on her.
The entire East Palace knew that she had murdered the imperial heir, but she was so calm?
"I don't know if His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun came to me, what do you have to order?"
His words obviously did not mean half of the reprimand, and everyone was slightly surprised. Xia Chuqi was smiling, not looking at anyone, only staring at him.
"Xiao Qi, are you here?"
Zhao Mianze was the first to react and held back his expression.
"Ahem!"
She stood at the gate of the palace, like a shining pearl, not only the beautiful side concubines and the beauty are beautiful, but there is a lack of an atmospheric Gu Ajiao, even the princess Xia Wenqiu, who is famous for her beauty, was compared to the Yucheng River outside the palace by her.
People are afraid of comparison.
Now the men in the palace, in the palace where all the beauties gather, have already read the beauty of the world. But even so, she is unruly but graceful, amorous but noble and charming, not only shocking the noble eyes of men, but even a dry woman forgot to breathe.
For a long time, no one spoke.
A long skirt, lying on the ground, delicate facial features like a layer of fine white glaze, tender and smooth, delicate as tofu, wrapped not tightly under the spring clothes, the looming clavicle arc is beautiful and attractive, and then a pair of pigeons wrapped in a puff seem to spread their wings and fly, for a while, the style is unparalleled, and people feel itchy in their hearts, but they dare not touch. Because of her slightly raised chin and gently raised head, it was indescribable alienation and arrogance. Like the fairy in the painting, high in the clouds, and like a beautiful peony on the cliff facing the cold wind, although the appearance is alluring, the posture is attractive, but it cannot be approached, unless you take your life to change.
Tonight's seventh day of summer is very different from the one she is familiar with.
Gu Ajiao's hesitant soft call was with a question mark.
"Chu Qi......?"
For a moment, the breath in the temple was less.
Not only were all the people involved in this matter escorted over by the guards, but the auxiliary ministers of the East Palace, the officials of the Zhan Mansion of the East Palace, and several of Zhao Mianze's side wives also came over to join in the fun. In addition, there are many people she is familiar with in the hall, including Sun Zhengye with his head drooping, and Gu Ajiao, whom she hasn't seen for a long time. Everyone's expressions were different, but without exception, from the moment she entered the room, countless people's eyes were focused on her face.
There are a lot of people in the Yuanlin Hall.
The wind was loud this night, and the trees outside the Yuanlin Hall were bent down by the cold wind, and at such a tense moment, the wind seemed to match the cold atmosphere, blowing her skirt high, crying and whimpering in the dark night, especially bleak and desolate.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
With a smile on her lips, she waved her hand, and left without caring what Jia Yi thought.
"Good. I'll rest assured that you'll do somethingβ"
"You don't have to worry about that."
She smiled, "But ......" After a pause, she said, "Little Nineteen is my cherished treasure, and I will not take advantage of my child easily until the point of life and death...... Boss A, if something happens to me, Concubine Gong won't have time to save me. You hurry up and lead the two treasures to find Chen Jing, and he will definitely arrange for you to leave the palace......"
Gently "um", A Yi did not speak.
Xia Chuqi bent his lips, and a trace of sadness suddenly appeared in his heart, "Well, don't follow me secretly, in case someone finds out, not only will you be punished for a big crime of bullying the king, but also I will be implicated." β
"Be careful, then."
As soon as Jia looked at her, he finally didn't argue again.
"Well, if you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it." Xia Chuqi smiled, and his expression narrowed, "I want to say that I am more relieved to have you outside." If it really doesn't work, you can also go to Concubine Gong, Xiao Nineteen is my last life talisman. β
A frowned, as always, "I haven't seen it." β
She often asked this sentence when she was in Xilin Gol, and when she returned to Jingshi, she didn't ask it for a long time.
"Boss A, where the hell have we met? Why is it so familiar? β
She pursed her lips, and slowly stroked her palm to her abdomen, "I'll be fine, even if there is anything, there is still Xiao Nineteen, who can save my life." And you ......" After a slight pause, she carefully looked at his eyebrows, and her tone changed, and once again diverted the conversation to the horizon.
Jiayi's eyes were slightly cold, "What do you mean?" β
"You know, planning for so long, success or failure is here. I can't take a wrong step, and I dare not leave a way back. β
Xia Chuqi's heart was like being knocked hard, and he glanced over his head and looked at him coldly.
Jia Yi replied to her coldly, "But he lives in your heart." β
Xia Chuqi sneered, "He's dead, he can't control me." β
No matter what she said, Jia didn't move his eyelids, "Your Highness said, never leave an inch." β
Xia Chuqi ignored him and said to himself: "Don't worry, I'll be fine." Besides, you fake eunuch, it's easy to get mixed in the Chuci Palace, if you go there, maybe someone is there, and once someone finds out, you won't bring me unnecessary trouble? β
Jia Yi insisted, "No. β
Xia Chuqi didn't look at him, nor did he explain too much, stroked the bun on his head, and then tidied up his cuffs, and said lightly: "This time, Longtan Tiger's Den." It's easier for you to stay here. β
A's face was slightly gloomy, "Why?" β
Xia Chuqi frowned, stopped, and stopped in a low voice, "Boss A, you stay." β
Seeing her dressed up so ceremoniously and pretty, he seemed to be taken aback, his eyes were slightly fixed, but he didn't speak, and quietly followed.
Out of the inner room, Jia Yi stood by the door.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
But those eyes were cold, sharp as ice, and there was no half of temperature.
On a chic hair bun, insert a step shake, hairpin some beaded flowers, a hibiscus color flower soft satin through-sleeve palace dress, shallow and sloppy on the ground, draped in an almond white translucent thin smoke veil, waist tied with a double phoenix beads of tender yellow palace silk, her originally narrow waist, lined with willow branches, pinched thin, in front of the body gradually rose up plump, slightly upturned hips, the body curve is so graceful as if into the painting of the classical beauty, than all the women she has seen, not the slightest inferior.
The woman in the bronze mirror, she felt a little strange.
Gently caressing his lower abdomen, Xia Chuqi stood up and stared at the bronze mirror.
"I hope ...... He doesn't blame me. β
"It's better to be alive than anything else, Miss Seven, you're right."
Qinglan pursed her mouth, straightened the dot on her head, and took a "jade dragonfly" hairpin from the box and put it on her sideburns.
I don't know if she was laughing or sighing, when she said this, a touch of loss appeared faintly in her eyes, "Qinglan, I've been so tired for a while, I really want to take Xiao Nineteen with him, why bother tossing others and tossing myself like this?" But when I saw Concubine Gong that day, although my words were made up casually, they were also what I thought in my heart. Zhao Shijiu should also be relieved of his mother's concubine. With a temperament like Concubine Gong, if there is no emperor, I am afraid that ...... I don't know how much I have to suffer. Not only her, but even Azusa is the same. Once they lose the protection of the emperor, they will have to suffer. β
"So, it's stressful to fall in love with a pretty man...... It's not easy for me. β
"Heh, that's because the master is handsome, and ordinary beauties don't look down on him."
Xia Chuqi stroked his lower abdomen embarrassedly and smiled lightly: "If your grandfather hears this, he will definitely have to hurt me a few more words." β
"It's not my credit, it's Miss Seven, you are good-looking."
Qinglan lowered her head slightly and approached her for a while.
"Wow, Qinglan, you're so godly, I've never seen myself so beautiful."
Under Qinglan's wonderful hands, Xia Chuqi looked at himself in the bronze mirror with an incredible expression.
Three points of appearance, seven points of dress, this sentence is honest.
"Sorry to waste your effort. Come, let's dress up a little more and brighten their eyes. β
At this thought, the corners of her lips twitched slightly, and she sat up straight.
Qinglan is a gentle and polite old-fashioned woman, she is what she says, and rarely refutes and insists on a thing like today. And her words, Xia Chuqi also agreed, which is indeed very reasonable. What a beautiful woman can do with just a soft word, but an ugly girl needs to be solved by force, and the effect is really worlds apart.
Xia Chuqi was slightly stunned and looked at her sideways.
If you are beautiful, you will be strong?
Qinglan looked at her gloomy side, stroked the beautiful beaded flowers on the dressing table, and whispered: "The slave maid thinks that it is precisely because of this that Miss Seven has to dress up better." If you are beautiful, you will be strong. β
"No need." After a little tidying up the clothes on his body, Xia Chuqi smiled lightly, and said very softly, but it was extremely cold, "Women are those who please themselves, and those who please themselves are gone, what is the point of dressing up beautifully?" Besides, I didn't go to Yuanlin Hall to compare beauty, but to be tried. β
Seeing her like this, Qinglan was confused, "Miss Seven, don't you like it?" I'll change it again. β
At the beginning of the summer, the acid water in her stomach was rising, and the vomiting was uncomfortable for a while, probably knowing that she was guilty of morning sickness, she waved her hand at Qinglan disapprovingly, took the warm water from her hand and rinsed her mouth, and waited for the dizzy vomiting to subside, and then slowly ripped off the ornaments on her head one by one and put them on the dressing table.
"Vomit...... ...... vomit"
"Miss Seven, what's wrong with you?" Qinglan patted her on the back.
Xia Chuqi squinted slightly, looked at the bronze mirror without blinking, thinking that he had eagerly hoped to appear in front of Zhao Zhu so beautifully, but he had no way to see it, but she wanted to dress up for others to see, and couldn't help but roll, and couldn't help it, so he lay on the dressing table and vomited.
"Miss Seven, you are really getting better and better day by day."
Her eyes lit up in amazement, and Qinglan couldn't help but praise her masterpiece.
Qinglan did things very quickly, and quickly changed into a newly made dress for her, put it on, drew her eyebrows, painted her lips, and a light makeup, not gaudy, not gaudy, just right to set off her Ruoyu skin and exquisite face.
There was only one candle lit in the inner room, the light was dim and lonely, and the two of them were quiet all the time, no one spoke for a long time, and their faces were not very clear.
Glancing at her, Qinglan answered "yes" in a low voice, and began to choose clothes for her.
Qinglan and Meizi's temperament is just the opposite, Meizi is snorting at first glance, her mouth is too big, but she is calm in everything and tight-lipped like a bottle, so Xia Chuqi doesn't shy away from her in everything.
"Qinglan, clean up for me, so as not to smell of horse sandalwood, it won't be good."
Glancing obliquely at the woman in the bronze mirror on the dresser, she smiled slightly.
Without saying another word, Xia Chuqi nodded and went straight into the inner room.
"Miss Seven, please take it, the slave is waiting."
Holding the dust in the crook of his arm, he bowed slightly, grinning so hard that his mouth reached his ears.
He Cheng'an is a sensible person, he can mix in the position of the great eunuch of the East Palace, and his ordinary people are sophisticated, much stronger than those elm heads in the palace. In addition, he is Zhao Mianze's close attendant, and he understands Zhao Mianze's personality, how can he not know that after this movement tonight, even if the evidence is conclusive, the imperial grandson is still facing this seventh lady in his bones?
"Father-in-law He, wait a moment, let me change my clothes."
Xia Chuqi pursed his lips and looked at the people in the hall, feeling extremely funny.
"Miss Seven, it's okay, it's none of your business, it must be okay......"
Some of the palace maids who flattered her hung their heads, their eyes were obscure, and they no longer had the enthusiasm of the past, and when she strode forward, they quickly spread out on both sides, and no one asked a word. Only Meizi came over with her mouth pouted, her eyes were red, and she looked at her worriedly.
Everyone guessed that if she murdered Concubine Taisun, this time Miss Seven may be more than lucky.
The top and bottom of the Chuci Hall knew that the child of the princess was stillborn, and the princess was furious, so he asked Gonggong He to come over and pass the seventh lady to ask.
Bypassing a Fugui screen depicting flowers, birds and fish, I saw a pair of eyes, staring at her like a soldering iron.
Hugging the big bird's neck, she stood up slowly, walked out of the stable with an indifferent expression, and entered the main hall of the Chutz Hall with easy steps.
"Big Bird, I'm going, and I'll accompany you again tomorrow."
She likes to talk to Big Bird very much, just like talking to Zhao Shijiu, it feels very different.
Sometimes, it is actually difficult for her to imagine that a horse like Big Bird, who has been on countless battlefields and is accustomed to seeing bloody storms and parting from life and death, can be so fierce and brave when fighting, but when it is quiet, it can be so tame, more pet than a pet.
She smiled, "Heh, you're a ...... understands everything, and it can't be done if people don't love you. β
After that, she touched the big bird's horse face lovingly, and the big bird gently rubbed her face as if it felt something, as if in response.
"Got it." Raising her eyelids, Xia Chuqi nodded at her, her face hidden in the dim light of the stable.
"Miss Seven, Grandpa He is waiting for you."
She came to tell Xia Chuqi the news, and when she saw that she didn't move, she urged again.
Qinglan also stood motionless outside the wooden fence of the stable.
Not far away, Jia Yi stood quietly, no emotion on his face.
She smiled lowly and knocked the big bird on the head affectionately.
"Big Bird, are you a horse or a dog? Is! β
Xia Chuqi did not fall asleep. After returning from Zeqiuin, she has been staying in the stable. In the quiet darkness, the thick hay exuded a grain fragrance, and the big bird, which had grown a layer of flesh and fat after a long time of inactivity, lay obediently beside her, huge but like a small pet, licking her palm back and forth with its rough tongue. Licking itchy, it's like comfort, and it's extremely comfortable.
When He Chengan led people to the Chuci Palace, it was already the fourth watch.
β¦β¦
I don't know who spread it, the East Palace caught Wang Xiaoshun who changed the dressing, and the news that Wang Xiaoshun had confessed to Miss Xia Qi spread it at a lightning speed in just a short cup of tea.
However, when the people were searched before, the news had already spread, and how could they be covered now?
After getting such a result, Zhao Mianze was shocked, and on the grounds of "the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and I don't want to make too much trouble", he only sent He Chengan to the Chuci Hall and asked Miss Xia Qi to come over for questioning.
At this point, it is clear who is in charge of the stillbirth of the princess.
No matter how big or small, there is not a single flaw in his words.
He was still a little apprehensive at first, but he knocked on the door of Jishitang's Xue family, found Miss Gu who lived here, reported the name of Miss Seven, and took out the letter, Miss Gu didn't say a word, and arranged for him to stay until the Praetorian Guards found him.
He said that during dinner, as soon as he got the news that Concubine Taisun's fetus was not guaranteed, Sun Jucheng arranged for him to leave the palace overnight and go to Jishitang to temporarily avoid the limelight. said that Gu Ajiao, the niece of the shopkeeper of Jishitang Xue, was an old friend of Miss Seven, which could ensure his safety. Before leaving, Sun Jucheng also gave him a handwritten letter from "Miss Xia Qi".
Even why he fled to Jishitang explained that he understood.
Wang Xiaoshun cried bitterly, talking about a cup of tea, and every sentence was the truth.
So, for a while, he was confused, and he did this unconscionable thing.
A few days ago, Sun Jucheng suddenly sighed, saying that now that Concubine Sun is sitting in the position of the main wife, if she gives birth to another child, it will not be easy for Miss Seven to take the position. Only when the princess has a miscarriage can Miss Seven have a chance to be corrected. heard about Sun Jucheng's plan, and he was also extremely scared at that time, but Sun Jucheng said that the emperor's grandson doted on Miss Seven, and even if the incident happened, he would not pursue it. If it happens, as soon as the emperor succeeds to the throne, Miss Seven will be the queen's mother, and he Wang Xiaoshun will be indispensable to the good. In the future, don't talk about the Donggong Dian Pharmacy, it is the Tai Hospital, and he will also walk sideways.
Everyone in the pharmacy knows that Sun Zhengye was sent by the imperial grandson to diagnose and treat "Miss Xia Qi" alone, and the friendship between the two is naturally not shallow. The rumor that the imperial grandson favored Miss Xia Qi had already fallen into his ears, so he naturally believed Sun Jucheng's words.
He said that since he beat Sun Zhengye and entered the East Palace, in order to ask for advice and study, he has been shouting at the master and the master, probably because of his good mouth, and Sun Jucheng soon treated him as his own. Once, Sun Jucheng told him that he was the old man of the new "Miss Xia Qi" who was favored by the imperial grandson in the East Palace, and he came to the East Palace to do something for her.
According to his confession, he had no intention of murdering Xiao Shizi, and the reason why he replaced the yam in Concubine Taisun's tonic medicine with smallpox pollen was at the instigation of Chengsun Zhengye of the Pharmacy Bureau.
That Wang Xiaoshun is only sixteen or seventeen years old this year, and he was escorted to Yuanlin Hall for the first trial, and he has not been sentenced yet, only two slaps have been given, and he has recruited a bottom.
But in the bright East Palace, it soon set off a bigger storm.
A turmoil that caused restlessness finally subsided. The city of Kyoshi entered a quiet night.
Coincidentally, he was hidden in a narrow old ear room in the backyard of the famous Jishitang on Ji'e Street.
I don't know if he was too unlucky, or the Praetorian Guard's search skills were too strong, and in less than two hours, he found Wang Xiaoshun who absconded in fear of crime on Ji'e Street.
The gate of the capital division has long been closed, and Wang Xiaoshun can't escape even if he has great ability.
The barking of dogs, the barking of chickens, the knocking of doors, and the cries of children were all noisy, and all parts of the city, including the mansions of princes and ministers, did not escape the search of the Praetorian Guard. Those Praetorian Guards were like eating gunpowder, tigers and wolves, and when they entered the room, they turned over the boxes and cabinets violently, and their attitude was extremely fierce and arrogant. And this incident later became a government malpractice in which the officials criticized Zhao Mianze for "disturbing the restlessness of the people in the city for the sake of a woman".
In the streets and alleys of Jingshi City, sleeping people were woken up.
The fire shimmers, and the armor rings.
Since there was no one in the palace, the scope of the search soon spread to the entire Jingshi.
On this night, there was no peace in all parts of the palace. Starting from the East Palace, the Praetorian Guards searched the entire corner of the palace several times, but they never found Wang Xiaoshun's figure. An envoy of the medicine said that this guy was still there at dinner, and if he counted the time, he might not be able to run far.
So, the search began.
Counting the children who fell back into the womb, he lost a total of four children. I used to think that Xia Wenqiu was not in good health, and since it was the will of God, there was no way. Now he found out that it was artificial, and the annoyance that had accumulated for many years came up, and he couldn't wait to tear that person. A noble prince can't even keep his own children, and let the thieves do things under his nose, if he doesn't find out who is behind the scenes, how can he swallow that breath?
Zhao Mianze hated in his heart.
"Search! Be sure to find out for this palace. β
In order to avoid being implicated in this matter, a medicine agent who was in the same room as Wang Xiaoshun came forward to testify. He said that in the past few days, Wang Xiaoshun is not the same as usual, doing things sneakily, and often running out in the middle of the night. When I asked him, he just said that he was peeing. He didn't realize it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it is probably related to the murder of the emperor's heir.
Needless to say, someone must have instructed it.
But how dare an ordinary medicine envoy murder the child of the emperor's grandson?
With a goal, everyone involved in the case breathed a sigh of relief.
The person who replaced the yam with smallpox pollen naturally locked Wang Xiaoshun.
In this way, things seem to be clear.
But soon, people with a heart discovered that among the people brought by the Pharmacy Bureau, there was only one internal envoy named Wang Xiaoshun missing. And after everyone pointed out, he happened to be the person who was responsible for selecting fetal pills for the princess in the past few days.
For a while, the scene got out of control, and the crying and shouting washed out the night in the East Palace.
After half a cup of tea, all those involved in the fetal protection medicine of the princess were quickly brought into the Yuanlin Hall, which is usually used for deliberations in the East Palace. The murder of the emperor's heir is a big crime, and it will be a bloody storm when implicated. These people who were inexplicably involved in it turned white with fright, begging for mercy one after another, and everyone swore that they had not touched the medicinal herbs of the princess.
The fetus of the princess who was pregnant for April died in the womb, and as soon as Zhao Mianze's order came out in anger, the entire East Palace seemed to be swallowed into a pool of boiling water, and everyone's hearts were boiling, and some were secretly happy, such as those side concubines; There are also those who sigh, such as the minions of Zeqiu Temple; There are also pure watchful show-watching mentality, looking forward to the development of events, such as most people.
Even the moon was not visible at all this night.
But in fact, the events of this night have nothing to do with fragrance from beginning to end.
The affairs of the nobles in the palace have always been the focus of curiosity and discussion among the common people. Under the rendering of the romantic pen and ink of the literati, some more popular people have been added, such as the glamorous version of the private meeting between Wang Sun Gongzi and Miss Guogong who accidentally lost the child and had a big event.
Of course, it's more about folk history.
This special night was later recorded in the history of Dayan.
