Chapter 69: Doing Things Again

On this day, it was the queen mother who led the palace concubines to watch the competition of the female dependents.

Since it is a competition, there is naturally a lottery. The prize this time is from the queen and the concubines in the palace and above, although it cannot be regarded as a valuable thing, but it is also a great honor.

After all, this will, the ladies of the various provinces are also there, which is a great opportunity to perform.

The people who participated in the competition after the game have changed their riding clothes today, and the ladies of each province have changed their weak appearance in Gyeonggi, and they are a little more heroic and sassy, and they are heroes among women.

Looking at Xin Yan's appearance of this dress, some people couldn't get used to it, and said sarcastically: "Yo, Miss Xin, you don't even bother to compete with us, and you don't even change your clothes." I still think that you can defeat us if you wear it like this. ”

Cheng Yi's words were also in the hearts of the other ladies, and as soon as she said this, they looked at Xin Yan with a little bit of unkindness.

If this Xin Yan really thinks so, it is a lot more arrogant.

Xin Yan looked at Cheng Yi leisurely, did not miss the hatred in her eyes, and said to her: "Miss Cheng must be bound to win, I won't fight with Miss Cheng." Besides, the competition is voluntary, and it is not mandatory for everyone to participate. Don't worry about Miss Lao Cheng. ”

This means that she is a mediocre person. I don't care, what do you care?

Cheng Yi has long understood Xin Yan's lip service, this will be important in the competition, so he will not compete with her for a while.

It's just that I just looked at her comfortable clothes, and I really couldn't stand it, so I ridiculed her twice.

And after Xin Yan replied to her, he ignored her, and the people around him who wanted to see the excitement felt that there was no excitement to see, so they took care of themselves and prepared.

"It's important to participate, it's okay if you don't hunt, be careful."

Shao Yunqing nodded, she didn't really want to participate in the originally, but Shao Mansion came to her this time as a female dependent, and it would not be good if she didn't participate, although there was no limit to this kind of competition, but each mansion must participate in at least one.

And the rules of this competition are also simple, within the allotted time, whoever hunts the most animals wins.

During the time of their competition, the ladies who did not participate sat with the queen and the ladies.

Although he had a snack and a palace maid waiting, Xin Yan still felt bored.

The queen and the concubines above secretly competed with each other, and the ladies and ladies tested each other, and the remaining young ladies who did not participate also competed with each other, but they really looked at the peaceful appearance on the surface, and the interior was very dirty.

Since ancient times, three women have been in one play, and now there are so many women, it is really more exciting than the play on the stage.

The waiting palace maid saw that the Xin Yan cup was empty, so she hurriedly took the wine jug and poured her a glass. This wine is also a low-concentration fruit wine, which is not high in concentration and is not easy to intoxicate, so it is very suitable for female dependents to drink.

But if the person who uses it doesn't have much alcohol, he will get drunk if he uses too much.

The palace maid watched around, turned the bottom of the pot, poured the fruit wine on the other side of the pot, and quietly finished it while no one was looking.

At first, she didn't plan to do this, but the person in front of her was just a businessman, and he didn't have any identity, and he wasn't a daughter, so even if something happened, no one would support her, so she persuaded herself to help that person.

The man promised her that he would give her a large sum of money.

But as soon as she finished pouring, she found Xin Yanzheng looking at her with a smile on her face, and her heart chuckled.

Although nervous, she comforted herself that Xin Yan didn't know, so she still pretended to be calm.

However, Xin Yan didn't take a look at her, and then looked elsewhere, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Xin Yan ignored her small movements, if she had seen it well just now, this pot was really similar to the pot she had seen before, but her workmanship was much finer than hers, and it was not as simple as hers.

Although the appearance of this pot looks the same as that of a normal pot, there is a mechanism at the bottom, and when you turn the mechanism, you can replace the normal wine in the pot with drugged wine, which can be said to be hidden.

It's funny, and the drink doesn't look like it's poisoned, it's like it's drugged.

The person behind this didn't want her life, but only drugged her, and was planning to do something to her, an "unconscious" person?!

The corners of Xin Yan's mouth rose, and no one dared to make these small moves for her for a long time. It's so much fun.

Wei Xiaochun saw Xin Yan's expression, and knew in his heart that someone was going to be unlucky. After following her for so long, as soon as she appeared with this expression, it meant that she had a ghost idea in her heart.

Concubine Xian and the queen over there were talking, as if they inadvertently talked about Xin Yan: "Shouldn't that one over there be Miss Xin?" ”

Concubine Xian is also an old man in the palace, and gave birth to King Liang, with a noble status. But naturally, there is less respect for the queen. For her, if the queen didn't have a younger brother of the prime minister, she would be able to sit in the back seat so easily.

First, her appearance is not as good as her, and secondly, she has no son under her knees. It's just that the queen's name is empty, and besides, the emperor doesn't like to go to her anymore. This person is old and yellow, how can he regain the emperor's love, so the respect in the early years is gone.

And the queen also can't get used to the virtuous concubine born as a palace maid, but she is just a fox, and she gave birth to King Liang for the emperor, so she put her eyes on the top of her head.

In the first few years when she was favored by the emperor, she respected her very much, compared to what she looks like now, but she looks like two things.

At this time, he also smiled and said, "Yes, Sister Xianfei has never seen it." Although Miss Xin is a woman, she can save the people from fire and water, which is also worthy of praise. ”

Concubine Xian said: "Although this is the case, I heard that this Xin Yan is a businessman, and he shows his face all day long, and he is not like it, I heard that during that time in Licheng County, he also went in and out with men all day long, which is really ......."

Although the latter words were not spoken, everyone present saw the ridicule in her eyes, and they almost said the words "shameless".

Concubine Shu also said: "Sister is right, although this Miss Xin is cured of the plague, but this words and deeds should really be paid attention to, now that she has the emperor's eyes, she goes out to the banquet with the ladies on weekdays, don't take the ladies of the mansion badly." ”

Concubine Shu is also a concubine of the same name as Concubine Xian, and she is still the biological mother of King Xiang, but her style is different from Concubine Xian, but today she is on Concubine Xian's side, which is also very strange.

Concubine Xian will remember Xin Yan so much, it can also be said that it is because of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department is the person of King Liang, although less people know about this matter, but Concubine Xian is the biological mother of King Liang, this is still clear, this Li Shangshu lost his only son, and the backyard is lively and hungry, and the aunts and concubines who had little hope have all tried their best to give birth to a son for Li Fu.

Speaking of which, I have to say that although Li Shangshu expelled Li Gaoyang from the Li Mansion and said that he did not recognize this son, how could he say that he did not admit salvation and did not admit it, and said that he would cut off and save him.

Therefore, he also planned in private, and after Li Gaoyang left Beijing, he rescued him on the way, and made a trick to steal the day and drop Li Gaoyang's bag, although there is no way to recognize him in the future, but he can live in peace without suffering from exile.

But this Li Gaoyang's psychological tolerance is too poor, after being cut off by his father in the court, he heard Emperor Chengwu's punishment for him, and after becoming a criminal, he was worried and scared all day long.

It's okay in the prison in Gyeonggi, no one will abuse him to lynch, after all, King Liang also secretly helped Li Shangshu to take care of it. But it's not that it's better to be in prison without being tortured, the prison is dark and damp, and the smell of decay is everywhere, even if it is a middle-aged man with a normal body, if he enters it, he will have yellow and thin muscles in less than a month. Not to mention Li Gaoyang, a noble son who enjoys all day long.

And after the exile, he knew what the hardships of exile were. Not only can't you eat enough, but you can't drink water if you want to, will there be people who beat and scold and deliberately stumble. And Li Gaoyang has offended a lot of people in Gyeonggi over the years, although these people couldn't do anything before, but now that a great opportunity is in front of them, how can they let it go.

There is nothing they can do in the prison, but it is not easy to do something during exile, as long as they give those officials who are close to the officials, they will naturally satisfy them.

And Li Gaoyang finally didn't call Li Shangshu's people coming.

On that day, Li Gaoyang took advantage of the negligence of the official and ran away.

This really angered those officials, after all, although these officials secretly repaired Li Gaoyang, they would also save his life, after all, if there was one less person on the way to exile, they would also be punished, and maybe they would die.

So as soon as Li Gaoyang ran away like this, the official was angry. It didn't take long to find Li Gaoyang who had escaped, he couldn't eat enough these days, so he naturally didn't have much strength to run, so it was normal to be caught up.

And now that he was caught up, the officials took their anger out on him.

He was soon put away and dying, and died of high fever the next day due to his injuries.

The official messenger was also in a hurry, but because he was suspected of running away again, the official was also punished for a crime of unfavorable care.

Li Shangshu waited for the news, it was Li Gaoyang's death that got the news, and he suddenly had a serious illness, and the house was in chaos again.

And after this incident, Emperor Chengwu was obviously very dissatisfied with Li Shangshu, and sometimes deliberately suppressed him, which was naturally not a good thing for King Liang.

After Concubine Xian knew about it, how could she have a good face for Xin Yan who caused this whole thing? But she is not a stupid person, at this juncture, she can't do anything to her, after all, Emperor Chengwu still values Xin Yan now, once something happens, it will inevitably be investigated, and if you are not careful, it will not harm King Liang.

So today, I can only make sarcastic and sarcastic remarks to stumble on her, so as to save her from living comfortably alone and hindering her eyes.
