Chapter 20: Poison Pearl
Chapter 20: Poison Pearl
Qianyu touched the hair on her head, the feeling just now was indeed very strange, the original heavy body was suddenly much more relaxed, and there was already a sense of sleep for half a month, and it was also blown away by the cold wind outside at the moment, she knew that feeling, the feeling after blocking the arrow for Mu Changfeng before was like this, but it was only a few seconds at that time.
Entering Jingrui Palace, the palace ladies have already swept the snow in the courtyard, and you can see the scene inside in the corridor outside the main palace, Ouyang Yu sits in the right position, and the concubines of each palace sit on both sides, it can really be described as a variety of colors, beautiful, some concubines Qianyu has seen, and some are not impressed, seeing Ouyang Yu is busy, Qianyu planned to go back, thought about it, or bypassed the corridor and went in.
"Queen Mother" Qianyu entered the door, and the palace ladies came up to warm her up, took off her cloak for her, and gave her a stove before letting her go to Ouyang Yu's side.
"Qianyu greets the queen mother, may the queen mother be blessed for ten thousand years" Qianyu walked to Ouyang Yu's table with a small stove.
"Qianyu, why did you come here alone? It's snowy outside, but it's freezing? Ouyang Yu gently put down the eight-flavor soup in his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and took a hot juanpa from the brocade box on the side to wipe her face.
"Queen Mother, Qianyu is not cold at all" Qianyu took the Juanpa in Ouyang Yu's hand and wiped her hands by herself.
"Come, Qianyu, please say hello to all the ladies and sisters" Ouyang Yu took back Juan Pa and handed it to Gong E behind her, pulled over Qianyu, and said softly.
"Qianyu has seen all the mothers, may the mothers be healthy and prosperous" Qianyu walked to the center of the hall and made a holiday gift.
"The ninth princess is really well-behaved, more sensible than Miaochun, Miaochun's child doesn't know anything, only rust, and plays the piano to pass the time" It was Concubine Zhi who opened her mouth to praise Qianyu, the biological mother of Princess Miaochun, Princess Miaochun was three years older than Qianyu, and she was the eldest princess of Chu State, and Ouyang Yu was born when she first ascended the throne.
"I heard that the ninth princess can be good at martial arts, not inferior to Prince Yanfeng, the queen is really a blessing" The crisp sound of the warbler out of the valley, Qianyu heard such a beautiful voice for the first time, with the sound of searching, in the middle of the first row, there was a concubine who was lightly rouge, with picturesque eyebrows, a smile, like a dragonfly dotting water, people like their voices, which made people remember it at a glance.
Qianyu didn't know, the concubine she was looking at was Fuyu's biological mother, Concubine Zhen, although she had also been to Shui Weixuan once, but she had never seen Concubine Zhen, if she knew that Concubine Zhen was sitting here, I don't know what her expression would be, after all, Shui Weixuan, who had made a big fuss, had not yet been investigated.
"Qianyu has been frail and sick since she was a child, and rarely goes out, how can those rumors in the palace be taken seriously?" Ouyang Yu gently turned the jade bracelet on his wrist, his eyes were indifferent, his eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Concubine Zhen quietly.
As soon as the queen mother's words came out, no one dared to speak out, and no one dared to question the truth or falsehood.
Ouyang Yu heard the meaning of their words, it was nothing more than saying that Qianyu couldn't understand piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and danced with knives and guns like a boy all day long, these words, on weekdays, it was okay to talk about them in front of her, but in front of Qianyu, Ouyang Yu was not happy.
"Frail and sickly?" Qianyu looked at Ouyang Yu in astonishment, is the queen mother talking about me? Qianyu pondered her words, Ouyang Yu patted the back of her hand gently, and Qianyu immediately understood.
Among the concubines, a woman dressed as a pink and green beauty has been staring at the flower on Qianyu's head, as if she is looking for something, a delicate goose egg face, pink eyebrows and green daisies, slender like a willow, a pair of lost apricot eyes, Qianyu noticed that she was looking at herself, found her from the graceful flowers, and smiled at her, the concubine was so frightened that she hurriedly avoided Qianyu's sight.
"Queen Mother, Qianyu has something to ask for" The little hand gently tugged on Ouyang Yu's sleeve, and Qianyu looked like she wanted to say something.
"What's wrong? Trouble again? Ouyang Yu chuckled and asked quietly.
"No, Qianyu hasn't been anywhere these days" Hearing Ouyang Yu's words, Qianyu hurriedly waved his hand.
"What's going on?" Ouyang Yu looked at Qianyu seriously, he had never seen her like this.
"Queen Mother, you promise me, no matter what the nurse does, don't blame her" Qianyu stood up and whispered in Ouyang Yu's ear.
Ouyang Yu thought about this sentence carefully, and felt that there must be a hidden secret, so he decided to agree to Qianyu first, and then investigate carefully.
"Okay, the queen mother promises you" Ouyang Yu glanced at Gong E beside her, and Gong E retreated.
"Ding-dong... Ding" A water bell sounded in Jingrui Palace, and Fang Cai's Gong'e stood next to the water bell with a wooden spoon.
The water bell rang, the concubine got up, slowly walked to the middle of the hall, and saluted Ouyang Yu, Ouyang Yu got up, calmly returned the salute, and after the ceremony, the concubines slowly took a few steps before turning around, and then left the hall.
This is a kind of water flow and wooden windmill formed by the water bell, a small silver bell hangs on the small wooden windmill, as long as the water in the wooden spoon is poured into a pipe above the windmill, the water will flow to the fan blade above the windmill, and when the fan blade sinks, the silver bell in the water will rotate with the windmill, the sound of the silver bell is crisp and pleasant, and wait until the water in the fan leaf slowly drains, those silver bells will return to the water, which is a more elegant timekeeping item.
The water bell is the time of Jingrui Palace on weekdays, and today is naturally no exception, in addition to reporting the time, it also conveyed the order of the queen mother, the meal time is over, the banquet is over, and Ouyang Yu asked Gong'e to convey such an order.
After Jingrui Palace quieted down, Ouyang Yu carried a food box, put on a cloak, and took Qianyu out of the palace gate, walking in the direction of Zhilan Palace, Qianyu followed behind Ouyang Yu, stepping on her footprints and walking on the snow.
On the way to the Zhilan Palace, Qianyu didn't speak, and Ouyang Yu noticed that there were many footprints on the snow, as if there were many people who had been to the Zhilan Hall before them.
Qianyu also noticed those footprints, and looked carefully, although there were more footprints, but it could still be seen that there were four people coming, but they had left, the footprints were divided into two large and two small, the big footprints were wearing cotton shoes, the footprints were relatively shallow, and there was a layer of scattered snow on them, and the small footprints were wearing winter boots, and the footprints that had been stepped on were relatively deep, because the boots blocked the snow on the side, so that the footprints were not covered by the snow on the side.
In this palace, Mu Changfeng doesn't have many friends, who will bring Gong'e here to see him? And it's two different people, it can't be Fuyu, she can't go out, even if she goes out, she won't bring her personal palace E, Yan Feng is even more impossible, he went to his father early, if he wants to come, at least he will bring himself.
Qianyu thought while walking, and unconsciously followed Ouyang Yu to the Zhilan Palace, and when he arrived at the door, those footprints became fewer, and the big footprints were gone to the door, but the small footprints went directly in.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the thick snow in the yard, and the dense footprints on the snow were the small footprints I saw outside, it seemed that these two people came to Zhilan Hall for the first time, and they couldn't even find Mu Changfeng's room, Qianyu laughed secretly.
Ouyang Yu took Qianyu directly to the place where Mu Changfeng lived, that was the room where Yan Feng slept when he was here before, the scenery there was unique, the terrain was quiet, and Mu Changfeng liked it very much.
When the two walked out of the corridor, they saw something spilled on the ground outside Mu Changfeng's door, the two stepped up their pace, and when they got closer, it was actually books and clothes in the same place, Ouyang Yu didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly pushed the door in.
In the cold room, the light was dim, there was no fire, there was no movement, and the things on the table were also pushed all over the place, Ouyang Yu hurriedly put down the food box in the middle, and hurriedly looked for Mu Changfeng in the house, but after searching the whole house, he didn't see anyone.
The first time Qianyu saw such a thing, the house was messy, and things were basically broken, but Mu Changfeng was not here, the footprints of those two people were left not long ago, he shouldn't have gone out, otherwise, he would have met him on the way here, Qianyu speculated about the things in the house, and she noticed that there was water on the ground.
"It's still cold, it just melted, and the water went all the way to the bed" Qianyu squatted on the ground and observed carefully,
"There is water on the bed, no, this is snow turned into water" Along the water droplets on the ground, Qianyu came to Mu Changfeng's bedside and found that the bedding was all wet, it seems that someone carried a lot of snow to his bed.
"Queen Mother, I know where he is" Qianyu lifted the food box on the table and pulled Ouyang Yu out.
That's the way to the side hall of Zhilan Palace, the side hall is on the edge of the main hall, there is a house where Qianyu lived for a while before, because it is close to the main hall, so the road is not far, walk through a few corridors, and pass through a small pavilion to arrive.
Qianyu really didn't guess wrong, Mu Changfeng was indeed here, because there was movement in the house, Qianyu quietly approached the door and secretly looked into the house, Mu Changfeng was sitting at the table reading a book, and he was very fascinated.
......The door was pushed open, and Qianyu cautiously entered the house, but Mu Changfeng didn't notice it.
"Changfeng, guess who I am?" Qianyu quietly appeared behind Mu Changfeng, his little hands blindfolded him, and he deliberately asked him in a low voice.
"Qianyu" Mu Changfeng put down the book in his hand, gently pulled away Qianyu's hand with both hands, turned around and smiled brightly, and his charming Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly.
"Changfeng, how did you guess?" Qianyu looked at him in surprise, and then noticed the book he had placed on the table, which was a book that he had never read.
"Because of Zhilanxiang, Qianyu has Zhilanxiang on his body" Mu Changfeng suddenly replied very seriously, his thin lips raised lightly.
"Zhilanxiang ......" Hearing Mu Changfeng say this, Qianyu's face suddenly turned red.
"This is what the queen mother brought you" Qianyu put the food box on the table and returned to Ouyang Yu with a red face.
"Changfeng Xie Queen Niangniang is worried" Seeing that Ouyang Yu was also here, Mu Changfeng hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Changfeng, is something happening? Your room is a mess," Ouyang Yu asked solemnly as he pulled Mu Changfeng, his eyes catching his every expression.
"No, it's okay, I accidentally got it" Mu Changfeng hesitated, his eyes flickered, he was clearly lying, he intended to cover up others.
