Chapter 16: Serial Game 3

She was halfway through her compliments when she suddenly got stuck in her throat.

He glanced at the phoenix with a strange expression, and then at Cui's family, but he opened his mouth for a long time, and he didn't know what to say.

Everyone sensed that something was wrong.

All eyes fell on the phoenix.

Under a closer look, everyone was scared into a cold sweat, and they were all trembling, not daring to say a word.

The queen felt strange and looked at the phoenix carefully.

Then his whole face was dark and gloomy, and he said, "Put it away!" ”

Cui Shi was still ignorant, and he was shocked when he glanced at the phoenix.

It was supposed to be a nine-tailed phoenix, soaring for nine days.

But this phoenix only has eight tails!

The eight-tailed phoenix is the ritual used by the imperial concubine.

And coincidentally, the current queen Li is not the emperor's first match.

After Emperor Chu ascended the throne, she should be crowned queen according to the system, but she made a big mistake, plotted to kill the emperor's heir, and was thrown into the cold palace, and the imperial concubine Li climbed to the queen's position in one fell swoop.

Who here doesn't know this old idea?

It's just that no one is going to point it out.

Now that the Cui family has sent such a jade carving, doesn't it tell everyone that she Li is just a concubine and is not worthy of the nine-tailed phoenix?

Cui Shi immediately knelt down: "The queen's mother, the courtier, the courtier's wife also checked the ...... before going out"

The queen held the rosary in her hand tightly.

She could also see that this nine-tailed phoenix was temporarily broken off.

But so what? His face has long been lost.

Her sharp gaze swept over Qiao Yu.

I saw that she looked ignorant, and she didn't seem to understand what was going on.

Isn't it her?

The queen's mind was racing.

Qiao Yu is indeed the most likely to frame Cui's family.

But after staying in the deep palace for a long time, no one would believe such an obvious murderer.

Her grim gaze swept around the hall.

No one is trembling and prostrate.

Some understand what is going on, while others are as ignorant as Qiao Yu.

She took a deep breath and regrouped her smile: "Nan Li, haven't you always wanted a jade phoenix?" This palace will reward you with this! ”

Princess Mingzhu Chu Nanli is only thirteen years old this year, innocent and arrogant, but she also knows the deep meaning of her mother's words, and immediately took over the conversation: "Mrs. Cui, the next time you want to send me a jade phoenix, you can send it directly to my palace, no longer need to pretend to be the queen mother's hand!" I will also convey your kindness to the Queen Mother! ”

As soon as she said this, she came out.

The atmosphere in the store was relaxed.

Cui Shi said yes again and again.

When she said this, this jade phoenix seemed to be given to Princess Mingzhu in the name of the queen.

That's only eight tails, that's reasonable!

Regardless of whether the truth is like this or not, this is the truth on the surface, and all the women began to compliment, and the topic shifted from the queen to Princess Mingzhu.

Chu Nanli had already unknowingly squeezed Qiao Yu out of the queen's side.

After a while, the queen was tired, and the palace maid led a group of people to rest in the place that had been arranged long ago.

Qiao Yu went directly back to her previous Qi Qiao Palace.

After she got married, Emperor Chu kept this small palace, saying that at any time, the palace would have a place for her.

What a magnanimous monarch.

Although the palace is preserved, the previous maids have been dismissed, leaving only a few rough maids to be responsible for daily cleaning.

As soon as Fei Baoer closed the door, she complained: "I didn't expect to be fooled by them!" I knew I should have broken the two tails of the phoenix! ”

Yes!

If He Xin didn't know how to distinguish between Bodhi and Vajra, they would have fallen into Cui's Dao!

came and did not be rude, Qiao Yu instructed Fei Baoer to help Cui Youyan take the brocade box, and quietly did her hands.

Fei Bao'er has lived in the deep palace for a long time, so she naturally knows the difference between the nine-tailed phoenix and the eight-tailed, so she broke one tail without hesitation.

Qiao Yu took off a few heavy hairpins on her head: "If you break it all, the queen will not attack on the spot, she wants to maintain her face, but this suspicion has been buried, and sooner or later it will be useful!" ”

Fei Bao'er listened, and her wrinkled face stretched a little.

At this time, inside the Kunning Palace.

Cui Shi and Cui Youya knelt on the cold ground, cold sweat on their foreheads.

The queen put the teacup in her hand and said slowly: "What are you doing on your knees?" Get up and speak! ”

Cui Youya was about to get up when she heard this, but she was held down by Cui's family.

Cui Shi kowtowed three times: "It's the courtiers who are not doing their jobs well, please punish the queen!" ”

Queen Li smiled lightly: "Forget it, I know you didn't do this, get up!" The eight-tailed phoenix is slightly carved, and it is just right for Nan Li! ”

Cui Shi trembled at this time, and his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

Cui Youya forgot the pain after the scar, and said indignantly: "Queen Mother, it must have been Princess Changping's maidservant Fei Bao'er who did it, and she was the only one who touched the brocade box except us!" ”

Cui Shi glared at her fiercely, and almost wanted to slap this niece with a few big ears!

Cui Youya soon knew why her aunt looked at her like that, because the queen sitting on the top said coldly: "Why do you want to let Wugan wait to touch this box?" ”

The atmosphere in the hall instantly became cold!

It was only at this time that Cui Youya realized that the queen was not as kind as she imagined!

She was speechless and didn't dare to defend herself!

Princess Mingzhu, who had been standing behind the queen, sneered: "Stealing chickens doesn't make rice, you have the ability to do this?" ”

The queen's stop was painless: "Nan Li! ”

Chu Nanli's beautiful eyes were full of deep calculation: "Idiot! Keep your eyes open and see what the real means is to make her never turn over! ”
