When someone dies, it's not so easy to get rid of.

When a good house collapses, someone must come out to take responsibility. The imperial concubine thought about it for a while, and ordered someone to summon the internal officials on duty to tell the things one by one.

Concubine Shu can't take this responsibility, and the imperial concubine doesn't intend to let her bear it.

Several people who were in charge of repairs in the winter of last year were arrested at night and detained for later trial. Whether or not they had anything to do with the collapse of the house is no longer important. The important thing is that the house collapsed and crushed people.

When the imperial concubine ordered things, she did not avoid Concubine Shu, and arranged everything in detail in front of her.

Concubine Shu pretended not to care, but she was always paying attention to the imperial concubine and listening carefully to her words.

For the first time, she felt that it would be a difficult situation for her to stand on the opposite side of the imperial concubine one day. Between the two, there is no balance at all, the scale can only desperately, desperately tilt to the side, they hold on to one side, either she falls, or the imperial concubine falls.

If it is feasible, Concubine Shu is not very willing to have a bad relationship with the imperial concubine.

The affairs under the imperial concubine's hands will be dealt with quickly, and they will only wait for the dawn to be dealt with in detail.

At this time, it was the fifth watch.

The sky outside the hall was darker than before, thicker than ink, and the five fingers could not be seen in the real reach.

Midnight is the darkest time before the dawn is about to come. This time is also known as the time of the devil.

Demons and monsters will appear silently, disguise themselves as adults, appear with people, and mingle around everyone. Every night that falls asleep has such a terrible time. The imperial concubine was very curious, where did that fake Rong Jiu come from.

She stared at Concubine Shu. The queen went to see Rong Jiu.

Unless Concubine Shu has the skill of clone, otherwise, that Rong Jiu can really only be a monster.

But the queen never returned.

As soon as the fifth watch day passes, the sky will soon turn white and bright again.

But until a faint white light came out of the window, the queen had not returned.

Where did the queen go?

The imperial concubine raised her eyes to look at Concubine Shu, smiled and asked, "I don't know where Miss Jiu of the Rong family is?" ”

The corners of Concubine Shu's mouth twitched, and she wanted to speak. The queen hurried over surrounded by her servants. As soon as she entered the door, the queen couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she saw that both of them were looking towards her together. She subconsciously slowed down, her skirt fluttering at her feet, and the queen gradually approached and sat down.

"The queen has been gone for a long time." The imperial concubine bent her fingers and gently tapped on the carved chair under her. "How is Miss Rong Jiu?"

“…… Very good. The queen hesitated slightly, but nodded. Said such a sentence.

The imperial concubine was slightly surprised.

Very good?

She looked sideways at Concubine Shu. But I saw that Concubine Shu looked calm and confident.

The queen is young, impatient, and impatient. She sent someone to inquire about the so-called Rong girl in the evening, and she moved her hands and feet in the middle of the night, and then came to check on people in person. Normally. In such a short period of time, Concubine Shu should not be able to come up with a way to deal with it.

But the queen said after returning from a long stay that it was fine......

There's something wrong with that!

Just when the imperial concubine was puzzled, the queen was ready to get up and say goodbye.

The imperial concubine listened quietly. He didn't say anything at the moment, so he also said goodbye.

She didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and she wasn't sleepy, but the queen of Izumo Hall made her feel a little unhappy, and she couldn't figure out what was going on.

She thought about the Rong family that Emperor Su Fang had said again, and she remembered it unforgettable. After a few quarters of an hour's rest, it was dawning. It's the height of summer, and the sky is brighter early.

Xie Shuning woke up not long after they left, and fell asleep again.

Early in the morning, she asked Yuzi and Turan to serve her to wash and dress up. The summer shirt is newly made, crimson Huaisu gauze clothes, embroidered with rare pink and white gentian flowers, lined with jade pigment yarn, like fresh petals perched on the flower branches in spring, with morning dew that has not been dried by the early sun.

It seems that in the blink of an eye, she has grown up.

Xie Shuning looked at herself in the mirror, a little stunned.

In her previous life, she desperately wanted to grow up quickly so that she could control her life. But later she learned that the girls of the family were used as money gifts. It's even more ugly, but it's like farmers and livestock raising chickens, ducks, pigs, and cows.

Food, drink, and lodging, and when they were raised, they exchanged them for more valuable things.

The difference is probably only that if you marry a daughter, you also need to pay a dowry.

But these dowries can be exchanged for far more than they give.

It's like her in her previous life, she was exchanged for the bright future of her sixth cousin.

The Xie family naturally feels that it is worth it.

Xie Shuning turned her face away and stopped looking at the mirror, and sighed almost inaudibly.

After a while, Ji Tongying also got up lazily. She came early, just over thirteen years old, and she already had it. Found dirty this morning. pants, I couldn't help but be annoyed, so I sent someone back to a few aunts who were raised, and they didn't go to class today.

After using a few chopsticks for breakfast, Ji Tongying said that she had no appetite, put aside her chopsticks in disgust and said a few words to Xie Shuning, and asked her to help her carefully go back to the dormitory to rest.

Only when this is the case, Her Royal Highness the Princess, who can't sit still for a moment on weekdays, can be regarded as really quiet.

The imperial concubine was busy dealing with the group of craftsmen who "cut corners and deceived the superiors and subordinates", and there was no one to be seen.

It's hot outside, and the sun is scorching over the blue sky, curling up the blades of grass below. Xie Shuning shook her fan to look at the sky outside, unable to support her forehead, how dare she go out.

In the afternoon, there were a few thunderstorms and a light rain.

As soon as the rain poured, the wind blowing slowly became much cooler.

Xie Shuning looked at the sky, thought about it, and asked people to go to the imperial concubine, she wanted to go to the imperial garden for a turn.

She sent a letter to her eldest brother Xie Yi last time, mentioning the matter of entering the palace. Xie Yi happened to be obsessed with painting recently, so he muttered in his reply that she should paint the scene of the imperial garden for him to see.

After Xie Shuning read the letter, he kept this in his heart. It just so happened that she had been living in the palace for the past few days, so it was better to take this opportunity to paint a picture and take it home, and when Xie Yi came back, she could gag him.

She asked people to pack up the utensils for painting, while waiting for the response from the imperial concubine.

I waited about two quarters of an hour. The person who went to pass the word hurriedly came back, saying that the imperial concubine had allowed it, and dialed some people for Xie Shuning to take with him.

Xie Shuning let Tulan carry his things on his back, and took Yuzi and the group ordered by the imperial concubine to go to the imperial garden. As soon as she reached the door, she stopped again, turned around and told Yuzi to go and get the chess box. It would not take too long to paint, but it was rare for the weather to be cool in the afternoon, so she simply saved it until the sun went down and painted another picture of the scene at that time. This time in between. If you have nothing to do, it is better to play against yourself and sort out the current matter reasonably.

They went out first, and Yuzi took the chessboard and followed closely behind, chasing after them.

The group entered the imperial garden from the east gate of Qiongyuan.

Xie Shuning looked around. After looking around, he asked the little eunuch who followed him: "Where is the best view in the imperial garden?" ”

The little eunuch bowed his head. I didn't want to think about it, so I said: "On Duxiu Mountain." The best view. ”

"Oh?" Xie Shuning raised her head and looked at the place like a mountain, "You point it out to me." ”

The little eunuch took a step forward in response, raised his hand and pointed to a place on Xie Shuning's left hand, and said, "Duixiu Mountain is the place where the head of the palace ascends during the Double Ninth Festival, and the Imperial Pavilion is built on it, and you can look at the surrounding scenery. It's the best place to see the view. ”

Xie Shuning looked in the direction of his finger, and the stones were stacked everywhere he looked, the roads were curved, and the Yujing Pavilion on the high place was ventilated on all sides. It's cool to look at.

At the foot of the mountain, the verdant bamboos and pines and cypresses are dotted with rocks, gently swaying in the breeze, and are evergreen all year round.

Xie Shuning bowed his head in satisfaction and motioned for everyone to go to Duxiu Mountain.

The mountain was not very high, and Xie Shuning climbed it without much effort. Tulan, on the other hand, seemed to be very worried about her physical condition, and almost semi-forcibly helped her to the Yujing Pavilion.

Yuzi also came up with a chess box and chessboard, and the little eunuchs who had just pointed the way also followed to the pavilion together.

The rest stood at the foot of the mountain.

Xie Shuning found a position with the best view and sat down, and instructed Yuzi to put things out.

After sitting for a while, she suddenly got up and leaned on the pavilion pillar to look at the scenery in the distance.

In the northwest corner, beside the pool, there are several figures.

She looked around, but only saw a familiar dress, although she couldn't see the face clearly, but with this conspicuous dress, she could also recognize people.

The queen's clothes are custom-made.

No one can wear it but her. The person who can wear such clothes, as far as the palace can see, is only the queen.

But how could the queen have the leisure to visit the imperial garden at this time?

Concubine Shu's affairs, doesn't she care anymore?

It's impossible!

Xie Shuning pulled Tulan, pointed to the location of the queen in the distance, and asked her, "Look, what is going on over there." ”

Growing up in the desert and with the eyes of a beast, this distance was not a problem for her.

Sure enough, Turan only glanced at her a few times and then whispered, "Miss, they seem to be arguing." ”

Quarrel?

Xie Shuning was slightly stunned, and ordered in a low voice: "You sneak over quietly to find out, don't be discovered." ”

Turan nodded heavily, retreated to Yuzi's side unhurriedly, and helped put out all the utensils that should be painted, and then used the excuse of going to the toilet and went down to the mountain.

Xie Shuning spread out the drawing paper, took the pen that weighed his hand, and began to mix colors.

After the summer rains, the air is filled with the smell of earthiness, which is mixed with the freshness of the grass and trees.

The tip of the pen in Xie Shuning's hand was stained with a thick cloud of ink, and with a wave of his hand, the pen fell to the paper.

Her painting skills are not very superb, but it is rare to put pen to paper, the picture is complete, and the style is unique.

Halfway through the painting, Turan returned to the pavilion. (To be continued......)
