It was almost noon when Wan Yuyao returned to Yongning Palace, and she was accompanied by Hua Nanlin, the Seventh Prince, and Mama Tong, who took care of him closely.

As soon as she entered the warm pavilion, Wan Yuyao couldn't wait to take off her layers of clothes, urging the palace maid to hurry up and prepare flower juice bath water in the clean room.

"Quick, quick, this palace will wash itself immediately. It's dirty, and the slut's clothes are worn on this palace, which gives this palace goosebumps. ”

Wan Yuyao complained, and glared at the plain white obscene clothes and pants on the soft carpet with a resentful expression.

That dress was Concubine Xu's personal belongings, if it weren't for the remnants of her breath on it, Wan Yuyao wouldn't have worn it on her body if she was killed.

She has experience in giving birth to children, and she always knows one thing that children recognize the breath of their biological mothers the most.

If she wants to get the Seven Princes, she has to behave well in front of the emperor, and the secret weapon that can successfully appease the child is naturally the profane clothes that are stained with the body fragrance of his biological mother.

The light gauze in the clean room is beautiful, and the candlelight is beautiful.

Wan Yuyao sat in the soup floating in the dried flowers, her plump shoulders were half-exposed, her skin was blown up, her eyes were slightly flattering, and her eyes were like silk, and she was fumigated by the heat in the bucket.

Deeply lifting her nose and inhaling a mouthful of floral fragrance, Wan Yuyao closed her eyes intoxicated, and let Lihu rub her arms behind her.

The plan has been going very well in the past few days, the things she wants are in hand, the hateful people are gone, what else can affect her happy mood at this moment?

The woman's lips opened slightly, and she murmured:

"You don't have to keep the one in Chuxiu Palace, you arrange it and let Minglan do it at night."

Lihu's ten-finger movements stopped, and he bowed his head obediently:

"The slave obeys."

"After the palace has taken a bath and burned incense, you ask Mama Tong to bring those clothes to the palace."

"Yes."

In the midst of the water vapor, Wan Yuyao suddenly got up, causing the water waves to shake and the petals to sway.

After lunch, Wan Yuyao sat cross-legged on the goose yellow silk futon in the Taoist hall, and calmly recited the entire volume of "Lingbao Sutra".

Every time after harming someone, Wan Yuyao would hide in the side hall and chant in front of the Sanqing icon enshrined on the incense case.

Her deep-seated thinking had long since decided that even if she had done murder and arson, the power of the scriptures would help her to heal her sins if she was faithful.

When Lihu entered the hall, she was followed by Mama Tong, a woman with a humble complexion, who did not dare to breathe with small steps, holding a stack of children's clothes in her hands.

Wan Yuyao got up and sat on the circle chair, looked at the clothes on Mama Tong's hands, smiled faintly, and was cold:

"Mama, put things on the table."

"Slaves and maids obey, slaves and maids obey."

Mama Tong's face was nervous, and she was busy responding, and when she put the clothes on the square table, her arms were trembling.

Wan Yuyao's eyes moved slightly, and she quietly looked at the number of clothes, a lot, hooked her lips with satisfaction, and smiled evilly:

"What are the Seven Princes doing now?"

"Hui, Hui Niangniang, the Seven Princes...... Sleep soundly all the time. ”

"Well, that's ......"

Wan Yuyao looked at the other party intently, and the essence of her eyes appeared.

This stupid woman doesn't know yet, the goat milk slices eaten by the Seven Princes have long been mixed with a certain amount of wine by Xi'er, and children will naturally sleep happily after eating them.

"Mama don't worry, now that you come to Yongning Palace with the Seventh Prince, this palace will naturally not be difficult for you. As long as you are obedient, in addition to the monthly salary, there will also be additional rewards in this palace. ”

"Yes, yes, the slave and the maid are your people now, and you will do what you tell the slave and maid to do, and you will never dare to have two hearts. Niangniang is Guanyin in the world, and the slave and maid can get out of the Duanben Temple, all relying on the care of the mother, and the slave and maid are grateful to the mother. ”

A heart "suddenly" beating is out of beat, Mama Tong can't stop kowtowing on her knees, and she is obedient to her mouth.

Wan Yuyao was amused by her sincere and frightened appearance, her hands flipped over, her beautiful eyes repeatedly examined Danko's dyed nails, and her voice was suppressed and frustrated, with ulterior motives:

"How is Hongu Guanyin? Hehe, this palace believes, but does not participate in Buddhism. ”

“…… Yes, it is the slave and the maid who are dull. ”

Mama Tong almost fainted in fright, and a trace of cold sweat fell down her temples.

Wan Yuyao's eyes turned to look at the clothes, and her smiling expression was somewhat restrained:

"Don't you want to know, why did the palace ask you to change these clothes for the Seventh Prince in the first place?"

Mama Tong's body trembled, and she shook her head vigorously:

"No, no, the slave and maid know the rules, the master doesn't say it, the slave and the maid definitely don't ask, and they don't dare to be curious."

Wan Yuyao nodded slightly:

"Yes, a good minion. As long as you are obedient, this palace will leave you to serve by the side of the Seven Princes all the time. All right, go down and serve the little master with all your heart. ”

Mama Tong nodded and got up, and when she turned around and went out, she felt that her sweat-soaked back was cold.

Lihu looked at the empty doorway, leaned over to his master, and asked in a low voice:

"Niangniang, what's next?"

Wan Yuyao looked at the children's clothes on the table and said casually:

"Find a place where no one is around, and burn these together with Concubine Xu's dirty clothes, keeping them will be a scourge after all......"

The pupils suddenly condensed, Wan Yuyao raised her delicate eyes, and fixed her eyes on the cuffs of a blouse.

The stitches there are a little different, not only the needle angle is too thick, but the color of the stitches is different from the others.

Wan Yuyao hurriedly looked through other clothes, and sure enough, someone had tampered with them in different positions.

Under her eyes_ The fire escaped, with a strong murderous intention, Wan Yuyao gritted her teeth:

"Lihu, this Mama Tong can't stay!"

……

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the day of murder and arson.

On the silent palace road, Mama Tong's lonely figure walked around, paying attention to the surrounding movements at any time.

Cautiously rushing to the door of the celebrant, she glanced at the closed door and approached quickly.

Below the lintel are two unicorns, each with teeth and claws, and a bead in their mouths.

Mama Tong groped for a long time, and finally found a suitable gap between the beads and the stone beast's throat, and gradually poked out a cloth bag from the placket and stuffed it.

A few days ago, when the people of Yongning Palace secretly sent a few children's new clothes and fifty taels of gold, Mama Tong knew that she was in trouble.

has never been meritorious, not to mention that the other party is the imperial concubine Wan Yuyao.

When you take money from others, you always have to do things for others.

The other party's request was very simple, that is, to ask Mama Tong to rotate the new clothes sent to the Seven Princes, but she couldn't make a noise to the outside world.

Mama Tong was humble, and she didn't dare to ask the other party for the specific reason, let alone refuse the imperial concubine's "reward, so she had to do it obediently."

In the days and nights that followed, the Seven Princes wept incessantly and lost their appetite.

The doctor came to check the child's pulse carefully, and checked all parts of the body for injuries and improprieties.

Mama Tong watched from the sidelines, in addition to being distressed, her intuition told her that the Seventh Prince was like this, it must be a problem with the clothes sent by Yongning Palace!

Once at night, Mama Tong found a blouse, used scissors to break the seams of the placket, and tore off the lining, she was dumbfounded.

Between the lining and the outer material, there is a thin layer of padded lining, which is not only covered with suspicious orange and yellow powder, but also has wisps of unusual-looking floating silk wrapped together with the padded lining.

Mama Tong looked at it for a moment and finally understood that the powder and floating silk on the cotton were the pollen and reeds of the "iron reed".

This kind of iron reed is very rare, only grows in the poisonous swamp pond of Shu in southern Xinjiang, due to the geomorphological characteristics, this kind of reed is active in growth all year round, never withering.

The pollen and reed floc of iron reeds are toxic, and although human skin contact does not cause redness and swelling, it does not cause ulcers, but it makes people itch and pain all over the body.

In the Ye Ting, there is a punishment for the offender palace called "wearing iron clothes", which is to force the offender to put on clothes and pants containing iron reeds, pollen and reed flowers.

Adults can't bear it, let alone a young child who is less than two weeks old.

Mama Tong couldn't cry under the lamp, she really couldn't bear the child, if she was not her own, in the end, she had a deep relationship for two years. She hated the viciousness of the Imperial Princess, and at the same time knew that her time was running out.

After being sad, Mama Tong took off a piece of cotton that adhered to pollen and reed wool and wrapped it tightly, and wrote it down again, and wrapped the whole process of being bribed by the imperial concubine until she found another article in the clothes of the seventh prince, and wrapped it in a cloth bag with the evidence of the cotton and the fifty taels of gold ingots.

Thinking that in time, if she encounters an accident, she is likely to be splashed with dirty water by Yongning Palace in the future, Mama Tong decided to hand over this evidence to a reliable person as soon as possible.

But who should keep it?

After thinking about it, Mama Tong thought of one person, only he could balance with Concubine Wanhuang, he was Leng Qingtang, the commander of Dongchang.

In the evening, Mama Tong found an opportunity to hide the evidence outside the door of the celebrant supervisor, and fled quickly outside the palace.

The cold and silent palace road suddenly had a string of footsteps, overlapping with Mama Tong, which looked weird and strange in the quiet night.

Mama Tong's figure was stunned, her pace slowed down and looked back, and she chased a eunuch five meters behind her.

Mama Tong's face changed greatly, she accelerated her speed and ran quickly, and a person suddenly appeared in front of her, it was Ren Yi, the eunuch in charge of Yongning Palace, with a hideous smile on her face:

"Mama Tong, you don't take care of the Seventh Prince so late, do you have to run there?"

"Slave, slave ......"

Mama Tong trembled and retreated step by step, two rows of teeth collided fiercely, and the helplessness and powerlessness that she had never experienced came to her.

The eunuch behind him rushed a few steps and blocked Mama Tong's mouth with his arm, and the stone in his other hand slammed down.

Mama Tong fell to the ground and did not move, Ren Gonggong bent down closer, looked at it through the cold moonlight, and said to the eunuch:

"Carry it away, tie a stone and sink it into Koi Lake."

"Yes."
