Chapter 32: Punishment
The clouds rest and the rain live. Duan Yulin turned over, and the emperor and queen lay flat on the couch silently, breathing each other. Sweaty and uncomfortable with the quilt on it, Feng Wu wanted to soak herself in the bathtub and wash herself inside out, but she knew she couldn't. So he could only keep his eyes wide open, staring straight at the top of the bed, as if he was about to stare out of a hole in the top of the tent. Suddenly, a night breeze blew through her cheeks, and Feng Wu turned her head to see that there was a gap in the door that had not been closed tightly when she entered the house, and it was through this gap that the wind blew in. This is the first breeze on the first day of the new year, and it already has a faint smell of warmth, it evaporates the sweat on Feng Wu's body, but it can't blow away the haze in her heart.
"It's almost spring." Feng Wu somehow muttered to herself. Duan Yulin was too tired to guess what Feng Wu was thinking, so he just turned his back to her and said, "Sleep", and then really fell asleep.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the emperor first went to the Fengxian Palace to pay homage to his ancestors, and then went to the Yongshou Palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother; Then take the chakra out of the palace to receive the court's congratulations, the ministers inside and outside the Chaoyang Gate to look at the palace of the palace to kneel two kneels and six bows, the ceremony is finished, this is called the national Ethics ceremony. At night, the emperor stayed in the middle palace as usual, and Feng Wu was still in conflict with Duan Yulin and the snake, but unfortunately he still couldn't escape Duan Yulin's obsession, and finally had no choice but to accept the royal family. The two consecutive days of sleeping made Feng Wu feel very unaccustomed, but it made the palace both surprised and excited, the palace people did not expect that the queen who had not been favored for many years suddenly got the favor again, what a good omen for Fengwu Palace! Even Miaoqing's smile was vaguely filled with excitement that was different from the past, no, she was holding a bowl of thick decoction to persuade Feng Wu to take her clothes: "Niangniang, this bowl is a fetal medicine specially prepared by the Tai Hospital to match Niangniang's physique, drink it while it's hot." ”
Feng Wu pushed away in disgust and said, "No matter how much I make up for this body, it won't help, why do I still suffer from this crime?" ”
Niangniang's words were wrong, and the doctor only said that it was difficult to get pregnant again, but he didn't say that there must be no hope. As long as the mother is willing to take care of herself, there is still a chance! Besides, so many times have passed since Princess Ruiyi was born, and the medicine to replenish the body has not been broken, maybe the mother's body has been recuperated? Miao Qing insisted on holding the bowl of medicinal soup, and when she saw Feng Wu turn her head, she said ruthlessly: "Doesn't Niangniang want to have her own sister-in-law?" If it weren't for the untimely death of King Yong back then, how could Niangniang suffer so much today? If Niangniang can take advantage of this east wind to get a son in one fell swoop, whether it is in the harem or in the Feng family, she will go further, isn't this what Niangniang has always wanted? ”
"Enough!" Feng Wu slapped the table heavily, and his little thumb accidentally rubbed against the edge of the table and scraped off the armor, Miaoqing knew that he had exceeded the rules, so he hurriedly put down the tray and knelt down to plead guilty. Feng Wu pulled out the remaining armor and threw it to the ground as if she was in a hurry, stretched out her hand to Miao Qing and said in an unkind tone: "Bring it!" Miao Qing didn't understand what Feng Wu wanted at first, but after a while, she realized that she agreed to drink the medicine, Miao Qing couldn't help but be overjoyed, and tearfully waited for Feng Wu to take a bowl full of fetal medicine.
Feng Wu, who had finished drinking the medicine, put the medicine bowl on the table, and suddenly felt aggrieved, and a layer of mist gradually appeared in her eyes, she was afraid that Miao Qing would be worried when she saw it, so she deliberately pretended to be very angry and ordered Miao Qing to retreat. Feng Wu calmed down his emotions alone, fiddling with the edge of the medicine bowl that Miao Qing didn't have time to take away with his fingers, and said to himself: "Duan Yulin, don't let down the many 'bitterness' that this palace has eaten!" After finishing speaking, he looked fiercely, and twisted the medicine bowl with three fingers and smashed it to the ground.
In the New Year, many shops and taverns were closed for rest, and Joy Square also ushered in a rare holiday, but although it was a holiday, the tassel was not relaxed, because at this moment she was sitting in the study of Qin Yan's secret courtyard with Qing Mang, the master of Tsing Yi Pavilion. Qin Yan sat behind the bookcase with a gloomy face, playing with a colorful wishful knot in his hand, and suddenly he threw the wishful knot to the silent tassel with internal force, and the head of the tassel was slightly biased towards the wishful knot and flew past her ears, cutting off a wisp of green silk on her sideburns.
"Tassel, you know you're wrong!" Qin Yan's tone was secretly angry, and Qingmang on the side was drinking water to hide the smugness in her heart, she was glad that Qingyu escaped back in time to report the news, so that she had the opportunity to strike first. Yun Shu is indeed a member of Tsing Yi Pavilion, formerly known as Qingyun; And Yun Shu's personal maid Yuzhu is actually the pseudonym of Qingyu, the person in the pavilion, but the tassel reveals Qingyun's identity, but ignores Qingyu, which allows Qingyu to escape.
"Subordinates know their mistakes." That colorful Ruyi knot was a gadget that was sent to every girl in the workshop on Chinese New Year's Eve last year to ask for good fortune, and now it fell into the hands of Qin Yan, which can only mean that it was accidentally left in the palace by Yiren or Hua Wu during the mission, and was picked up by other hidden piles of Qin Yan hidden in the harem. Combined with Qingyun's death, he must have found out something, and there must be Qingmang's villain suing first.
"Tassel, you are so daring! Without my orders, do you dare to be a private person in Tsing Yi Pavilion? As the tassel expected, the wishful knot was picked up by Zixiao, who had been secretly observing various forces, and Zixiao investigated a series of actions between Joy Fang and Tsing Yi Pavilion. And in the fake cave on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Zixiao had already reported everything to Qin Yan truthfully.
Tassel knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty again and again: "The subordinates are guilty, but the subordinates are also forced to be helpless!" All this is because Tsing Yi Pavilion provoked first! The tassel glared at Qingmang, and Qingmang stared at the tassel dumbfounded.
originally thought that Tassel only designed to kill Qingyun because she simply wanted to go against her, but she didn't expect that Joy Fang also had someone who could investigate her trick to take the lead! Qing Mang retorted loudly in a hurry: "You have less blood and spews people!" ”
"Shut up!" Qin Yan swept away a teacup in anger, and the study was suddenly silent, and Qingmang hurriedly knelt down next to the tassel on one knee. Qin Yan laughed angrily: "You two are really good at it!" Behind my back, they are secretly calculating with each other, do you want to rebel in the nest? ”
Qin Yan pointed to the tassel and said, "You, take the token I gave and send someone into the palace to kill someone?" He pointed at Qingmang again: "And you!" Don't think I don't know who instigated Su Lianyi to commit suicide. Do you know that as soon as Su Lianyi dies, the real chess piece I arranged will become a waste chess piece? Foolish woman! ”
Qingmang and Tassel both hung their heads and didn't dare to speak, just waiting for Qin Yan's punishment, Qin Yan also wanted to teach the two of them a lesson this time, and decided not to tolerate it: "Both of you will bear the corresponding responsibility for sabotaging my plan." Tassels, you are limited to three days to offer the head of the one who kills the clouds; Qingmang, you too, mention Qingyu's head to see you within three days! If you dare to cover up, I know that you are good-looking! ”
Qingyun is dead, and there is no way to hold her responsible, but Qingyu must be involved in the whole thing, so she can only take Qingyu under the knife, but she didn't expect Qingyu to escape death after all. Tassels and Qingmang didn't dare to disobey, so they had to knock out their teeth and swallow blood.
Qin Yan impatiently sent the tassels and Qingmang out, and called his subordinate adviser Honghe to discuss with him: "Hong, I'm still not at ease, these women are not enough to succeed and more than to lose." ”
"Women, there is always some trouble when you get together, after all, it's not for you, an adult?" Hong pursed his lips and smiled, but his eyes were extremely cold and said: "Adults don't worry about women, so let Amo look at them." If anyone dares to act rashly, they will directly ask Amo to deal with it. "Mo is a first-class guard of the Horse Mansion, not only is his martial arts extremely high, but the most special thing is that although he is a man, he is very beautiful, and the first person he sees is often indistinguishable between male and female, so he often disguises himself as a woman to carry out tasks.
Qin Yan agreed very much when he heard this, so he instructed Hong to inform Ah Mo to do it, and before Hong left, Qin Yan specially instructed: "Don't let the second young master know about these messy things." "Qin Fu, the second young master of the Qin family, is Qin Yan's only younger brother, and he doesn't want these pickled things to pollute the kind and honest Qin Fu.
"Don't worry, my lord, it's always been like this." Hong replied respectfully and exited the study.
Out of the other courtyard, two women who didn't like each other confronted each other silently for a moment, and Qingmang took the lead in making a difficulty: "A lowly person is only worthy of doing what he does." ”
Tassel angrily sneered at each other: "The wicked sue first, and you are always the best at it." ”
"Slut! Why is the woman in a green building fighting with me? Qing Mang hated the tassel the most to go around Qin Yan, and he raised a group of foxes, and he would not be much better, so he robbed her of men in different ways.
"Qingmang, you have a little respect! I'm not a Qinglou woman, and Joy Fang is not a Qinglou! Tassel herself also minded her origin, her identity was really different from that person.
"It's called a song and dance workshop, but it's not the same thing as the Qinglou behind the scenes, and you still want to set up a chastity archway as a*? Joke! Qingmang stimulated the tassel with the most vicious language, the tassel was unbearable and finally shot, using the silver needle as a hidden weapon to shoot at Qingmang, Qingmang pulled the corners of his mouth disdainfully, and the tassel was far inferior to her in martial arts. She easily avoided the hidden weapon, and took a silver needle and mocked: "Next time, quench some poison on the needle, so that it will be more deterrent." ”
"Thank you for the advice, next time it will be!" As she spoke, another wave of silver needles was launched, and Qingmang dodged it again with a somersault, and flew away with a light skill, her arrogant laughter could not be dispersed for a long time. The wind in the night suddenly became stronger, blowing away Tassel's hair, and Tassel clenched his fists so hatefully that he didn't even notice that his nails were sinking into the flesh of his palms.
Three days later, at midnight, two square boxes were placed in front of the gate of the Qinfu Annex, and the courtyard carried them into the study. Qin Yan opened the box, inside was the head of the two women, Qin Yan opened the album with all the members of the Appreciation Shop and Tsing Yi Pavilion to compare them one by one, the two people in the box were Hua Wu and Qingyu, Qin Yan closed the album with satisfaction, and instructed his subordinates to clean up the box with the things inside. Qin Yan stood alone by the window and looked at the sky, a gust of night wind blew away the dark clouds that covered the bright moon, it seemed that tomorrow would be a good weather.
