Chapter 12: The Helper
I thought that Concubine Rong Guifei was assisting in the affairs of the six palaces, and her relationship with the emperor had warmed up a lot recently, so she would choose a palace that was closer to the Pingqi Palace, but she chose a small palace located between the Ripple Palace and the Shouxi Palace, called Youhuanxuan.
What is a secluded, deep bamboo forest. And in this courtyard, there are two tightly arranged bamboo bushes.
The secluded Xuan is not as big as the Ripple Palace, but it is also quiet, and it sits in the north and faces south, refreshing and transparent. I still like it very much.
The Queen Mother picked a good day with a beautiful day, lit up the soldiers and horses with tea and cigarettes, made the unenviable things clear, and moved in a mighty way.
But Emperor Xuanzhen still wanted to keep Concubine Rong to stay in Pingqiao Palace for two more nights, so he didn't envy and lived in Youhuanxuan first.
When Buxian was writing about the homework left by Mrs. Wei, Chayan took out a box and put it in front of Buxian: "This is the birthday gift sent by Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, it is a dough sculpture, I think it is very interesting, so I left it." ”
I put down the pen carefully: "Open it and see, what is dough molding?" ”
Cha Yan said while opening the box: "Dough molding is the craft of making mature dough with flour and glutinous rice flour and kneading it into various flowers, birds, fish, insects, people, and animals. That is, the noodle kneader. ”
I didn't envy and saw four fat dolls lying on the brocade in the box.
"Can I eat this?" Don't envy grab a sniff.
"You can eat it, but you still don't want to eat it, and I've been letting it go for a while. Be careful of eating bad stomach. ”
When it came to his stomach, he remembered Xiao Meiren's affairs without envy, so he asked how the tea and tobacco matter was investigated.
Cha Yan retired the people in the house, and then said: "There is nothing abnormal in the food and service, everything is the same." ”
Buxian couldn't help but roll his eyes: "You are so mysterious, just tell me that everything is normal with her." ”
"But ......"
I don't envy the spirit again, but this is the key point of the matter: "But what? ”
"The inner guards are not allowed to enter the inner court without an order, but recently, the guards across the wall of Luohui Palace have been strengthened a lot."
"Could it be the manpower sent by the father?"
Cha Yan shook his head: "No, the emperor avoids and abandons her." ”
"It won't be the queen, the queen is now in a difficult position to protect herself. It could only be her father. ”
"The slave thinks the same way."
Buxian thought about it carefully, couldn't think about it, and suddenly saw the dough plastic doll on the table again, Buxian closed the dough plastic box, patted the lid and said to Chayan: "Send this to Xiao Meiren, saying that it is a gift for her birthday." If she smashes it, it's fine. If she accepts it, she will be very sad. Tell her that the princess already knows all about her, and if you want a glimmer of life, invite her to come to the Hidden Pavilion. ”
Cha Yan was puzzled: "What does the princess know?" ”
Buxian shook his head: "I guessed, but I don't know if it's right, so you have to try it to find out." ”
When the tea smoke left, Buxian called four more attendants into the house, and asked one of them to take the copper gilt peony hand stove and give it to Concubine De, one took the white jade inlaid colored stone quail Ruyi to Lin Meiren, one took a box of high-quality lotus seeds and sent it to Wei Zhaoyi, and the other Nanzhu soft bracelet was returned to Meng Jieyu.
and told Meng Jieyu to bring a message, and the words were like this: "Xie Mengjieyu is kind, but I don't dare to ask for Nanzhu's bracelet or necklace, I'm afraid that I will be framed again." ”
When these people left, there were only two rough girls left in Youhuanxuan to sweep outside, and Zelan was waiting in the house.
When the night fell, Chayan came back, and Xiao Meiren came quietly with her.
Buxian saw the person coming, sighed, and turned around to close the door. The fire in the stove in the house was burning, but she shivered without envy, and Xiao Meiren's sharp eyes made the soles of her feet cold.
Buxian lowered his head, cleared his throat, and pointed to Xiao Meiren's stomach and asked, "How many months?" ”
Xiao Meiren was stunned for a moment, her expression was shocked, she didn't expect that she would be so direct.
In fact, it's not that she is not envious of being straightforward and frank, it's just that she doesn't know how to deal with problems in a roundabout but effective way like the Queen Mother.
The light in Xiao Meiren's eyes dimmed for a moment, decadent and desperate: "It's been more than three months, I took a cloth belt and tied my stomach, even you can see it, let alone others." ”
Buxian hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I didn't see it...... I overheard it in the nest a few months ago. Didn't Shanyue say that he wants his children to inherit the Xuanxuan Dynasty," Speaking of this, Buxian paused, glanced at the tea smoke, and cleared his throat and continued, "Later, in the Fengluan Palace, the Wan Taiyi ordered that the medicine residue collected from the nest shop was a tonic, not a child-avoiding soup. A few days ago, you always ran to your father's palace. You are the daughter of Jiangmen, with a strong temperament, since you have made a decision, you will not pull down your face to beg your father again until you have to, and you want to be favored again. So I'm going to give you a try. ”
Xiao Meiren glared at her fiercely, and her eyes were about to shoot a sharp sword.
Buxian shrank his shoulders: "You don't have to look at me like this, I originally just wanted to deal with the queen, I didn't know that I was in the nest shop and Shanyue that day...... It's you, I thought it was the maid in your palace. It was Shanyue who wanted to kill me, and he killed me two... Two important chamberlains...... I'm already angry. ”
Xiao Meiren's mouth moved, and she spit out a few words: "I should have killed you a long time ago." ”
Buxian listened, and hurriedly hid behind Cha Yan, who was in front of her, and stretched out his hand to protect her: "Xiao Meiren, don't mess around, there are princess people inside and outside this house, you really want to do it, you can't take advantage of it." ”
Bu Xian also hurriedly said: "Don't you take care of the child in your womb?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Meiren's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and she covered her abdomen with her hands: "If it weren't for him, how could I come to see you, as long as I think of you now, I can't wait to rush to your palace and cut you with a thousand knives." ”
"Xiao Meiren, I didn't kill your child." Not envy to justify.
Xiao Meiren's eyes widened and she asked in amazement, "What?!" ”
Bu Xian swallowed his saliva: "Your child was not killed by me, it may have been through my hands, but this is definitely not my intention, I am only five years old, why should I murder my younger brother." ”
Xiao Meiren's eyes were red, and she was a little excited: "You won't have the intention of murdering, what about your mother, what about Concubine Rong?" In vain, I regarded her as my own sister, thought of her in everything, and protected her everywhere, but I didn't expect her to lose her conscience so much. ”
I didn't want to see her lose control of her emotions, so he hurriedly interrupted her: "I have no evidence to prove that my mother is not the mastermind of the murder of your child." So no matter how I try to defend it, you won't believe it. But I invited you today just to help you, do you believe it? If I want to hurt you, why bother with all this thought, I just need to tell the imperial grandmother that you are pregnant, or father, you and the child in this womb will surely die. Believe it or not, even the queen will kill you if she knows that you are pregnant. Because you are pregnant, it proves that Shanyue is having an affair with you, and Shanyue is a man, since Shanyue is a man, will he and the queen be innocent? Such a humiliating thing for the royal family, you will be wiped out. ”
