423 Exposed
"People in the palace?" The queen's voice deepened, "Who has the audacity to dare to be presumptuous on such days?!" ”
Shen Yan watched from the side for a long time, then stood up and said: "This garden is full of women and nobles, if you talk about the people in the palace, I don't know if General Li has you ever checked who else in the opera garden has come out besides me?" ”
The queen glared at her: "There are high-ranking nobles in the theater garden, do you mean that they will come to murder you?" ”
Shen Yan raised her lips and sneered: "Of course no one will come to harm my maid, but does Niangniang really think that the other party is coming for rouge?" If we were out of the pavilion at the same time, wouldn't it be me who was splashed head-on? This person was secretly murdered in a place sheltered by the flowers, at least it can be concluded that firstly, she came at me, and secondly, she was very familiar with the geography of this place.
"If it's not a palace person in the palace, it must be someone who often walks around the palace.
"Of course, ordinary people can't get close to the imperial dining room to get spicy condiments, and we have all had chili peppers and vinegar at luncheons, and people don't have special preparations on the table, if it weren't for the ladies and nobles, or the people around them, how could they have the opportunity to get these? Although I don't know why I was murdered like this, but now, does Niangniang still think that this matter has nothing to do with one of them? ”
Even though the queen did not hesitate to be so aggressive, she had to obey.
She had to solve this case, and after sweeping her eyes, she stood up, walked to the kneeling group of palace people, and said, "How was that peony trampled on?" You don't see it either? ”
The palace people were silent for a moment, and finally someone muttered, "Slave." The servant saw only someone faintly passing by. I didn't see how bad the flower field was. ”
"How many people did you meet?" Shen Yan asked.
Gong said: "Yes, it's one." The minions didn't pay much attention because they saw Miss Shen coming from the peony field with three maid sisters first, and they thought that the person was also looking for the girl. ”
"Then why didn't you say it!" The queen reprimanded.
"Fang Cai, Fang Cai Niangniang didn't mention the peony, and now, the slave can also see that the person is not Miss Shen's person, because the three maids around Miss Shen are all wearing lake blue clothes, and the one is wearing rose-colored clothes."
The queen turned around, "Go to the theater garden immediately." Whose maid wears rose-colored clothes? And at the same time it has come out! If you find it, bring it with you! ”
Although Shen Yan knew that it was Song Ping who crippled the peony, she was still unsure whether she was the one who poured the spicy water. Originally, she didn't think it was, but from the analysis just now, it looked very similar, except for Song Ping. She didn't offend anyone else. Even if it's a concubine. It was impossible for her to use such a low-level trick against her, and even if she hurt her like this, what good would it do to Concubine Shu herself?
But people like Song Ping are hard to say.
At the moment, things are not as simple as stepping on a few flowers. Who poured the chili water, and does it have anything to do with the person who broke into the cold palace? Why would that man choose to break into the cold palace on such a day? At first glance, these questions don't seem like anything, but when you think about it, you can't help but tighten your heart.
However, no matter what, Song Ping is the one who can't escape. Now not only to teach Song Ping a lesson, but also to use her to tear up these unsolved questions, so that the queen can target the other party in the form of a census, which is more natural than pointing out her coming.
Here, Song Ping was watching a play in the garden in a state of confusion.
The maid who had gone out replied that the task was complete, and she immediately returned with her in the other direction.
Although she firmly believes that it is unlikely that Shen Yan will turn her head and target others after going out under the noses of so many people, there are too many capable people in the palace, and she has to hide all the traces of spiders and worms that can be hidden. As long as the news of Shen Yan being angrily reprimanded by the queen came, she would be able to put her mind at ease.
She drank half a cup of tea, and sure enough, she saw someone hurrying over to invite the queen.
As soon as the queen left, the silk in her hand was twisted into a knot, and in order to avoid goofing, she didn't even reveal the nearest Mrs. Song.
After calculating the time, I was about to let the maid go out to inquire about the movement, and suddenly several people came in outside the door one after another, and someone walked up to Mrs. Hua and Chen and said a few words, and saw that the two of them immediately changed color and got up, and hurriedly went out. Knowing that it was an incident, he was about to be happy, but then a few palace people walked in, and went upstairs with their feet like wind wheels.
Looking over from where the Song family's ladies were sitting, I saw that those palace people reported a few words to the Queen Mother and Concubine Shu, and then heard Concubine Shu reprimand in a deep voice: "It's really unreasonable!" In broad daylight, today is still the emperor's longevity, and this kind of thing happened! ”
Song Ping secretly hooked her lips.
Shen Yan stepped on the queen's flower, and offended Concubine Shu before, although Concubine Shu was against the queen, how could she openly oppose her at this moment? And even if Shen Mi is favored, he is a courtier after all, how can Concubine Shu be willing to be confronted by Shen Yan? is the murderer of the matter of the prince now, in the case that Shen Yan offended the two of them at the same time, how could Concubine Shu not take the opportunity to establish her authority?
She can be sure that she has a good chance of succeeding this trick.
Here, Concubine Shu took people downstairs, and then walked down a few noble ladies, and at first glance, it was Duchess Rongguo and Duchess Wei, and at the same time, there were two young grandmothers in the old mansion of Xu Ge, and they couldn't help but look at it twice. I don't know why only a few flowers were injured, but the people of the Guogong Mansion and the Pavilion Mansion were also alarmed?
Seeing that their faces were gloomy, and the surprise on Concubine Shu's face did not seem to be fake, and her heart began to jump for no reason.
At the moment when he was worried, someone suddenly came behind him, bowed down and said, "Dare to ask the girl, but is it the young lady of Song Zhengqing's mansion in Honglu Temple?" If so, please ask the girl to go with us, and the queen will invite the girl to talk in the garden. ”
Song Ping's heart became more and more panicked, and she got up and said, "Dare to ask Niang Niang what I do?" ”
The palace people didn't dare to talk nonsense, but said: "The girl will know if she goes with the slave to see." ”
Song Ping had no choice but to stand up, and Mrs. Song next to her didn't know what was going on, but when she heard that the queen had seen her, she hurriedly got up.
Climbing a small slope along the boulevard all the way, passing by the peony field that had been trampled on, Song Ping's heart was slightly tight, and then he saw many palace people standing under the half-slope, and he mentioned in his heart that such a battle was used to deal with a few damaged flowers and plants, and it was inevitably too troublesome.
The palace people led her all the way up the stone steps on the side of the slope to Changxuan, and the concubine and the women had already arrived, all of them were as condensed as water, where did they have any thoughts?
Song Ping's heart also drifted, but thinking that she had no flaws in her actions, and she had never been caught, she gradually put her heart back. Moreover, she saw Shen Yan and his party coming to the pavilion with her own eyes, the queen concubine and many women are here now, if she has something, Shen Yan will not be able to pick it clean.
In this way, the heart is more and more stable.
She hooked her head to the queen and bowed her head one by one to greet her.
Ten years ago, the reputation of the Song family was not lower than that of the Shen family, so almost everyone in this family recognized her.
Taking advantage of the effort to stand up, she raised her head and swept it in all directions, only to see Shen Yan and Mrs. Hua and the Chen family, as well as several young grandmothers from the Pavilion Old Mansion all standing under the eaves of the pavilion, and there were also people on the other side of Changxuan, and there was a suppressed groan, she glanced at it slightly, and recognized that the man who was wearing an official uniform and holding herbs while quickly ordering others to take water was actually Imperial Doctor Liu of the Tai Hospital!
On such an occasion, how could the Imperial Doctor be here?
Who was injured, or was it a sudden illness?
Could it be that apart from the destruction of flowers, something else happened just now?
She finally had to believe it, and quickly glanced at the queen again.
The queen's gaze fell on her as soon as she appeared, and at this time, there happened to be a palace person approaching her to report something carefully, she was silent for a moment after listening, and then put the tea cup in her hand on the table, and said, "Miss Song, do you know what happened in this place?" ”
Song Ping pursed her lips: "I don't know if I think about my mother's words." ”
The corners of the queen's lips twitched slightly, and she said, "So, do you know why this palace announced you to come?" ”
Song Ping raised her eyes, shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”
The queen smiled and stood up, "I don't know, then this palace will tell you."
"Miss Shen said that her maid was injured in the eye by someone of unknown origin, and General Li led someone to carefully inspect the female relatives who came into the garden today, only Miss Song, you are eligible, one is because the maid next to you happens to be wearing the dress of a woman who once walked alone near the peony field.
"The second is that in addition to Miss Shen's four masters and servants, only you, Miss Song, have ever come out with a maid. At the same time, the palace happened to hear that at the gate of the garden before, Miss Song had met with Miss Shen, and there was a dispute for some reason. Now, you should always know why this palace announced that you came, right? ”
Song Ping's face turned pale when she heard this, and she quickly looked at Shen Yan and met a bottomless gaze from her.
Shen Yan's maid was injured in the eye?
Assassination in the palace, this is a big crime to lose your head and involve the family!
How dare she admit it?
"Niangniang, Niangniang is suspicious of Song Ping's hand?" Her lips trembled, she couldn't help but be afraid, no wonder everyone had this face, even Concubine Shu had never fallen into the trap for Shen Yan, and an assassin appeared at the emperor's birthday banquet in the palace, who would dare to lose weight in front of this kind of thing for a little personal anger?
"I didn't, not me! Please Niang Mingjian! ”
She took a few deep breaths and quickly argued.
Although Mrs. Song had long been eager to give the Shen family some color to take a look, how could she dare to make a mistake at this time? also immediately stood up and helped: "Please Niang Mingjian, our Sister Ping is not such an ignorant and reckless person!" (To be continued......)
