Chapter 18: Damned

The next morning, Jade fell asleep at the door and finally woke up.

When she went back to the room to wash, she took off the veil to cover her face, and when she saw that the burns were basically healed, she was overjoyed, and turned out Chu Ning's pair of earrings and put them on.

When she admired the earrings in front of the bronze mirror, Dongzhu pushed the door in and called her, and wondered, "Didn't Your Highness throw the other one into the flowers that day?" ”

Jade got up and walked out of the room, and said angrily, "So what's the matter?" The dog was gouged out of the flowers, and I picked it up and put it on. ”

"Tsk, you want what the dog has in its mouth?" Dongzhu showed disdain, but he was a little unhappy in his heart.

An earring isn't worth a few bucks, but a pair of earrings is not.

took it to a pawnshop outside the palace and sold it, which was enough to exchange for a year's worth of rations for a small family.

Jade replied unceremoniously: "Jealous of me? Why don't you also learn the dog offal and go to the gutter to plane? ”

Dongzhu sneered, and when he walked past her, he suddenly bumped into her.

Jade was touched by her like this, and she was angry, and pushed back with more force.

"Ahh Dong-joo exclaimed in surprise and pushed her together.

Neither of them paid attention and accidentally bumped into the little pendant who came to deliver hot tea.

Xiao Shen'er couldn't dodge the teapot with it, and was hit hard by Dongzhu and fell to the ground, the teapot in his hand was also broken, and hot water splashed on the ground.

The two were splashed with hot water, and quickly separated, scolding in a low voice.

Xiao Shen'er's hands were scalded with a large string of blisters, and she stared blankly at the fragments of the teapot on the ground.

At this time, the little eunuch in the concierge ran in and said, "Aunt Jingqin is here!" ”

Jingqin took a dozen entourages and walked into Heyi Palace.

She seemed to have forgotten about forcing Chu Ning to drink poison, and said with a smile: "The queen mother remembered the third princess, and specially asked the slave maid to visit Her Royal Highness. ”

"I'm worried about Lao Niangniang." Chu Ning decided to pretend to be a pig first, and then eat a tiger, "Come on, sit down." Aunt please. ”

Jade hurriedly served Jingqin to sit down, and handed her a bowl of tea.

Jingqin lifted the tea lid and floated, put the tea bowl back on the table, and motioned for Chu Ning to retreat left and right, "Niangniang has something to ask Your Highness." ”

Chu Ning's heart was shocked, and he smiled quietly: "Oh? ”

Jingqin didn't hide it, and asked: "In the big hall that night, except for the first emperor and the thief, there was only one person. ”

"The Queen Mother sent a slave maid to ask, what happened in the palace?"

Chu Ning replied succinctly, "Anti-thief and king-killing." ”

Jingqin asked again: "When the imperial doctor examined the injury, he found that the thief was killed by a blunt blow to the head, I don't know what caused it?" ”

Chu Ning took a sip of the tea that had been cooled, "The thief committed such a crime and was punished by God, it must be God who wants him not to die well." ”

When it was almost dawn, Empress Yao sent someone to turn the hall upside down, but she didn't find the jade seal of the country.

Jingqin wanted to coax her to tell her the whereabouts of the jade seal, but she was afraid that it would be revealed that Empress Yao had sent someone to assassinate her, so she had to stop asking no more.

Chu Ning calmly drank the tea, and Jingqin also took a sip of the tea bowl, and said suspiciously: "Is this overnight tea?" ”

Before Chu Ning could make a sound, Jingqin had already thrown the teacup in front of Jade with a cold face, "How do you serve the master?" ”

Jade quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and explained with a sad face: "Auntie, it's not a maid. Yes, it will only be ...... when the little pendant breaks the teapot."

Jing Qinpi said with a smile: "There is no master in this palace, and the palace people are lacking in discipline. ”

Chu Ning said with a smile: "Auntie, I'm afraid I forgot, now there is a master in this palace." ”
