Chapter 169: The Morning Tea Meeting of the Qianqing Palace

I couldn't sleep all night tossing and turning, and in the middle, I secretly got out of bed and ate Yurong shortbread almond tea to replenish my brain power, which lived up to my trust, and really made Bai Jingyin come up with an idea.

After the rooster crowed three times, she had already freshened up, and she ran to the Qianqing Palace without caring about dressing up carefully, wanting to talk to Yuan Ruiming about this matter before she went to the court.

Coincidentally, the scene of Bai Jingyin's hurried steps happened to be seen by the Queen Mother and her party.

The Queen Mother naturally knew where it was going, so she stopped, looked at her wind-like figure, and frowned.

"That person looks like it, Concubine Jing." Yukihime pretended to be unconscious.

"Isn't this said in vain, up and down the palace, except for Concubine Jing, aren't all the concubines already here to pray for blessings with the Queen Mother. Originally, the emperor was exempted from the morning and dusk on the grounds that Concubine Jing was unwell, but how did the concubine look like she was full of energy, and she looked a little sick. ”

Ling Suxin looked at the Queen Mother's expression and deliberately provoked.

The Queen Mother's face became more and more bad, and she snorted coldly with her sleeves:

"It's okay not to ask for peace for the mourning family, but now is the time for the emperor to go to the court, and he has to go to the Qianqing Palace to be obsessed, which is really unseemly! The mourning family went all night to pray for the sin of whom, she was good, she had no heart and lungs, and she was like a nobody. ”

She can ignore other things, but it affects Yuan Ruiming, so the Queen Mother can no longer be regarded as not seeing.

"The Queen Mother should not be angry, it is just some rumors, even if it spreads widely, it does not mean that Concubine Jing really did such a thing." Ling Suxin persistently fanned the flames here for the Queen Mother, "You can't blame Concubine Jing, after all, after such a big thing, it is reasonable to be afraid that you want to seek refuge in the emperor." ”

"She also knew that she was outrageously wrong this time, affecting the country and the society, and adding such trouble to the emperor." The Queen Mother turned her head and glared at Ling Suxin with a cold face, and accused in a low voice: "The mourning family handed over the Spring Society sacrifice to you to be responsible, and Concubine Jing went to the palace selflessly, will you not know?" ”

In fact, the Queen Mother herself also knew, but she didn't care too much about how many times she paid attention to proportion.

But who knew that this would cause such a big disaster.

Ling Suxin lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she looked aggrieved and pitiful.

"But, but......" she bit her lower lip and wanted to cry, "The concubine is indeed at fault, but she just thinks that this can make the emperor happy, and the emperor's happiness is the greatest happiness of the concubine, and she has disappointed the expectations of the queen mother, and the concubine is ashamed." ”

The Queen Mother's eyes swept coldly over Ling Suxin's pretended pretentious appearance,

"If you want to cry, you should go to the emperor to cry, what's the use of crying in front of the mourning family."

With that, he left her alone and continued to walk.

Aunt Rui stopped in place and saluted, and said to everyone:

"All the little masters prayed for blessings and prayed all night in the Baohua Palace, this sincerity is also hard, the Queen Mother ordered the slaves to prepare breakfast and tea in the Taihe Palace, and those who want to go can go together, and those who are really tired can also go back to China directly to rest."

"Empress Dowager Xie is compassionate and caring

。 ”

The concubines looked at each other and replied in unison.

The Queen Mother's kindness, no matter how tired and tired she is, who dares to blatantly refuse, so everyone respectfully follows behind the Queen Mother and goes to the Taihe Hall together.

***

Bai Jingyin also arrived at the Qianqing Hall at this time.

Although she can enter and exit freely as if no one is around, because of the excessive force of pushing the door, Yuan Ruiming, who was rinsing his mouth with tea after breakfast, was startled.

I swallowed all the water in my mouth, choking on my chest and coughing.

But he frightened the Fu father-in-law beside him, and couldn't help but complain to Bai Jingyin while patting his back: "Concubine Jing can't suddenly appear like this in the future, the old slave's old bones can't stand the fright." ”

"I didn't mean to, okay, okay, I'm here to serve, you all go out quickly, I have something to talk to the emperor."

Bai Jingyin pointed to the door and put on a posture of rushing people.

Gonggong Fu looked at Yuan Ruiming, Yuan Ruiming was still coughing, his face turned red, but he eased up a little, and nodded to Gonggong Fu without a trace.

"All come out with miscellaneous people."

Gonggong Fu raised his head, flicked the dust and led a group of eunuchs and palace maids in the hall to come out.

"How's it going, are you okay?" Bai Jingyin was a little reluctant because he was shocked by Yuan Ruiming, so he deliberately poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, and said in a good voice.

"Ahem, don't you think I'm not choked to death so I'm not satisfied?"

Yuan Ruiming said no, but his actions were very honest. After taking a few big sips, he finally calmed down.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he couldn't help frowning, and said:

"You've been beaten?"

"Huh? Hmm......" Bai Jingyin didn't react at first, and when he looked in the mirror beside him, he realized that today's dark circles are particularly serious.

"It's okay, it's used to it, but it has a different charm." Bai Jingyin sat on the table, scooped up the remaining porridge of Yuan Ruiming in the bowl, and ate the milk melon, and made breakfast in a grand manner.

"I thought you were really not afraid of heaven and earth." Yuan Ruiming estimated that there was still plenty of time, so he also sat down together and used chopsticks to clip a piece of shortbread to her. "I said that I don't have to worry, why don't I be so scared that I haven't slept all night."

Bai Jingyin swallowed the food in his mouth,

"Who said I'm afraid, I'm thinking, thinking, it's very physical and mental energy." Bai Jingyin took a bite of the shortbread that Yuan Ruiming was holding, and raised an eyebrow at him.

"So, depending on how hungry you are, you must have thought it out."

"Naturally, but because I think too much, there may be no rules, so the emperor will try to listen to it." She sorted out her thoughts, "First of all, the motive, I thought about it all night yesterday, and I thought it was too much of a coincidence. The emperor found out about the construction of the tofu scum project by the Ministry of Industry, and then there was an accident, but it had nothing to do with the Ministry of Industry, but it all became my fault for angering the gods. ”

"It's just a game of chess that Ling Xiang has been planning for a long time, so you can bear all the blame for him and the Ministry of Works, and there is no way to resist."

Of course, Yuan Ruiming also thought of this.

"How much did the Ministry of Industry embezzle this time?"

"More than 100,000 silver."

Sure enough, it was a lot of money. This is also what worries Bai Jingyin,

She propped her chin and said slowly:

"For the sake of these money, I used such a big brain. But is Ling Xiang or the Ministry of Industry very short of money, or is there suddenly something that needs money urgently? ”

These words really woke up Yuan Ruiming, he lowered his eyes, thought about it for a while, and realized that something was unusual at a deeper level.

"I will send someone to keep an eye on Ling Xiang's movements, maybe you are right, the reason behind embezzling the arrears is more important than the arrears."
