120 brocade box
I went back to King Ning Courtyard early. The prince disappeared as soon as he got off the carriage, and Wang Jingshu didn't ask him where he was going, but went back to the princess's courtyard alone.
But as soon as I entered the room, I was shocked by the mountains of gifts on the table, who gave this?
On the other side, Mama Huifen pulled Qingyun to count the gifts on the ground, which had to be registered and stored in the warehouse.
It turns out that there is such a gift on the ground.
Before Wang Jingshu left, there weren't so many gifts, "What's going on?" Who sent them? Why are there so many congratulations? I remember before I left, there weren't so many gifts. β
"Back to the master, these gifts piled up on the ground are all filial piety of the prince's staff and guards, it seems that the gifts are decent and nothing special, the maid is counting them with Mama and preparing to store them in the warehouse."
They are all filial piety to Princess Ning under King Ning, and it is said that there are a lot of side concubines. Qingyun didn't dare to mention these words. Those people under him actually compared the side concubine with the princess, and there is no distinction between the upper and lower levels, which is really disgusting, and there are no rules and decency.
The people under the prince...... Wang Jingshu sat on the embroidery stool, took Qingliu's tea, and took a sip, she was really thirsty, "Since it is the filial piety of the people under the prince's hands, then you can look at a rich congratulatory ceremony as a return gift, and the gift is still exchanged." β
Although it is said that it is the filial piety of the people below, Wang Jingshu did not support it, after all, the prince's people still have to give a little thin noodles.
Qingyun is unwilling, why should they want to return a generous gift to their people who respect and inferior? However, Huifen Mama said that some human relations are necessary, and today's gift exchanges may become a charcoal in the snow one day.
Wang Jingshufu pointed to these on the table again, "What about these?" I see that the brocade boxes are beautifully wrapped. β
Boxes of various colors are piled up all over the table. It didn't seem to be there when she left Ning Wangyuan just now, it shouldn't have been sent by someone in the palace.
Aoyagi replied and handed over a gift list, "This is Sun Liangdi and Zhao Zhaoxun's congratulatory ceremony, and it has not yet been counted." The concubine's congratulatory rites have been counted and stored in the warehouse, this is a gift list, please take a look at it. β
Wang Jingshu took the gift list and looked at it, and the He Yi sent by the concubine looked at this kind of name elegant and fresh, she liked it very much, presumably things are also good things. Looking at the gift list in her hand and looking at these on the table, she couldn't help but secretly have fun, this year seems to have made her pockets plump again, and there are a lot of good things in the warehouse.
Immediately, she instructed, "Remember to choose a few good things and send them to the side concubine." β
Aoyagi replied obediently, "I have already given gifts in the morning, they are all fine pearl hairpins and green rings and silk satin, and the master can rest assured that he will never be rude." And this should be a return gift from the side concubine. "This big New Year, it is a gift and a return gift and a gift, and you have to register and make a book, and the treasury has to go in and out several times a day, but the palace maids are so busy that their feet do not touch the ground, and they are tired.
After a while, she saw that her master had taken a brocade box, and she explained, "Master, this is Zhao Zhaoxun's gift, and Sun Liangdi's gift is here." β
Wang Jingshu did take a brocade box and look, opened it and saw that it was porcelain? But it seems that something is moving inside...... What the hell is this?
She took a closer look, and suddenly saw a flat, long centipede crawling on the thing, and her hand shook in fright, knocking over the brocade box, and falling directly to the ground.
But it turned out that there was not only one, but several centipedes crawled out of the brocade box, and crawled everywhere, and at the same time, the porcelain inside was also shattered. Wang Jingshu was really startled, she could no longer maintain her previous sober and steady, she hated this kind of insect the most, she had already lost her look, and took a few steps back, "Quick, quick, hurry up and clean up here, get rid of it quickly." β
Qingliu on the side was also frightened, but Qingyun rushed over when he heard the sound, and directly trampled to death like a swift move, but it was only a moment's work.
The ground is full of centipede remains.
Mama Huifen also rushed to pick up the broken porcelain and showed it to Wang Jingshu, "Master, this brocade box should be Guanyin." It's just that this one is quite small, not like the Guanyin worshiped by ordinary people. β
"Although Guanyin is good, but I put a centipede, I can't guess Zhaoxun's intentions," Huifen Mama looked at the brocade box twice, and in addition to the fragments, there was also a note...... Take it out and take a look, "This note reads: Princess Ning Wang Jingshu." I don't know if this note is placed in Guanyin or in a brocade box. β
Wang Jingshu was angry and hateful, was she so happy to find her for the New Year? Is it to laugh at her, or to disgust her? Seeing a centipede on the first day of the first month, is it a good intention?
Zhao Wannian!
Do you have to provoke me to be willing?
This time, Wang Jingshu didn't plan to give up, and now she can see that people are good and are bullied. People can't talk too well, and they have to be uncomfortable during the New Year! "Go and send these things to the princeβ"
He lowered his head and pointed to the remains of the centipede on the ground, "Along with these, Aoyagi, you send them to the prince so that he can take a good look." β
Aoyagi is young and timid, so he didn't dare to take it, "This ......"
Wang Jingshu sighed, and turned her mind to tell Qingyun to go, "Qingyun go!" β
Qingyun went out of the house to find a piece of discarded cloth, entered the door again, and boldly picked up the centipede remains on the ground into the brocade box, and closed the brocade box, "Don't worry, the master must explain it clearly to the prince." β
He turned around and left the house.
happened to meet Lin Nushi who received the congratulatory ceremony from the Shanggong Bureau, and she quietly told Lin Youxiao the reason for this matter.
Lin Youxiao thought about it and finally stopped Qingyun, asked Qingyun to wait outside first, and then called Tonghe to give her a congratulatory ceremony temporarily, and turned around and entered the house.
As soon as he entered the house, he gave the princess a New Year's greeting, "Master, the maid will give you a New Year's greeting, may the master have a new year." β
It caused Wang Jingshu to laugh, "You can speak." Get up! β
It's ridiculous, it's time for things to come out again. is smiling and delicate, and her voice is very good, "I can hear it just now, you asked Qingyun to wait at the door, so that she didn't listen to my orders, and she became more and more bold." You have to give me a reason, otherwise I will blame you and Qingyun for not obeying the princess's orders!" Not obeying the princess's orders is a sin in the following crimes. β
"The servant has his own reason for being a servant, what is the master anxious about, listen to me slowly," Lin Youxiao learned the master's tone, but he couldn't learn it in the end. simply started to be serious, "The servant thinks that it is not appropriate to tell the prince about this matter." β
"The first prince will not care about this kind of trivial matter, if this kind of thing is passed out, the prince will be in charge, then you, the princess, will be looked down upon, and now there are too many women and outsiders in and out of the imperial city in the New Year.
Second, there is no evidence to prove that Zhao Zhaoxun did it, and He Yi has handled too many people, and it is no longer clear. If she insists that she didn't do it, you can't help it. If there are other people behind them, they will startle the snake.
Third, no matter what happened after all, it was something that went wrong in King Ning's courtyard. If you deal with this matter openly, once it spreads, the prince and the queen will be disgusted with you. It's easy for you to improve the relationship with the prince, and you have the queen's mother-in-law who likes it, so don't make an accident at this juncture, it will outweigh the losses. β
Lin Youxiao's words are not unreasonable, Wang Jingshu calmed down and thought that there was indeed some truth, but she couldn't swallow this breath, her frightened face just now was discolored, seeing this poisonous centipede, she felt bad luck during the New Year. And she also fell to send her son Guanyin, she felt very uncomfortable.
- Princess Ning suffered from that serious illness, her body was weak, and she was not easy to get pregnant.
This kind of thing has already pierced into her heart like a thorn in her heart.
Zhao Zhaoxun sent her to Guanyin when she was pregnant, and she may not have the meaning of showing off and gloating. As a result, Guanyin was broken, what does this mean?
"I know that in this palace, I have to take care of the overall situation, and I have to endure what others can't bear. But I, this time, don't want to put up with it. β
Lin Youxiao deeply understands this feeling, but he also understands that this is a headless public case with no answer, "If you don't want to endure it, what can you do?" Has the princess thought about it? Tell the prince, what? Even if it is handled, this kind of thing is just a headless public case. I don't know how many headless cases there are in this palace. β
"Is that inaction?"
Mama personally sent the brocade box to Zhaoxun, if she did it, so as to give her a wake-up call, tell her to be more restrained in the future, she would never dare to say it. If she hadn't done it, she might have made a big deal out of it, and you're just a victim and just sit and wait for the outcome of this matter. β
Wang Jingshu sighed lightly, and suddenly felt that the responsibility on the shoulders of the princess was thousands of pounds, "If it weren't for hers, would the things in the brocade box scare her?" β
"She's the one who did it."
Wang Jingshu was very helpless, and waved her hand to ask Mama Huifen to do what Lin Nushi said.
Mama Huifen went out and took the brocade box from Qingyun's hand, and immediately went to Zhao Zhaoxun's courtyard.
I didn't expect Guo Fengyi to be there.
Zhao Wannian was talking to Guo Yizhu, and when she heard that Mama Huifen was coming, she smiled and asked Qingmei to greet her, and she always greeted the palace people in the princess's courtyard with a smile. Seeing that Mama Huifen handed a brocade box to the table, "My master said that this brocade box was sent by Master Zhaoxun, but our yard couldn't afford this brocade box, so we sent it back." Please take a closer look. β
Huifen's yin and yang weird tone, she was unwilling to be for the princess after all, if she changed her temper, she would definitely turn the world upside down.
Zhao Wannian was very puzzled, was there anything wrong with the He Yi she sent? She discussed it with Sun Liangdi, and there should be no mistake. The congratulatory gift she sent was a gadget that the family Tete went to her grandfather's hometown to find. Don't say that the princess is rarely seen by people in the palace, why did she provoke the yin and yang weirdness of the grandmother? "Mama, is there a misunderstanding?"
"Sister Zhaoxun should open the brocade box first and take a look. What is in it, I'm afraid it will be mixed up with what others have sent? This princess has received a lot of congratulatory ceremonies, and I'm afraid that there will be mistakes. β
Huifen Mama immediately retorted, "What does Fengyi mean by this? He Yi was registered and sent to the treasury, do you mean that the palace people in the princess's court can't even do this little thing? Besides, the things in this kind of brocade box, I'm afraid that no one who doesn't have long eyes will give it back the same as the one sent by Zhao Xun! β
Guo Yizhu didn't dare to say anything more.
Zhao Wannian opened the brocade box suspiciously. What is it that makes the princess, who has always been kind and good, unhappy?
I didn't expect it to be full of wreckage.
She couldn't even recognize, "This is ......"
"There were a few centipedes crawling out of the brocade box you sent, which frightened the princess and smashed Guanyin! The princess called her servant to ask, what do you mean by doing this on the first day of the first lunar month? β
"Is it a New Year's greeting ceremony from you?"
Sending the child Kannon......
Centipede......
Zhao Wannian didn't know why there were centipedes in the brocade box......
As for sending the son Guanyin, it is indeed hers. Two months ago, the family got it by chance, and she thought it was small and exquisite, so she sent it to the palace, and she casually let the green plum wrap it into a brocade box, and she could send it out when the time came.
How can this be...... Sent to the princess? She hadn't commanded it.
"Send the child Guanyin...... It's mine, but the centipede has nothing to do with me. Zhao Wannian stabilized her mind and said unhurriedly, "The princess can't wronged me for nothing, I didn't let the centipede in." And who knows if this centipede is ...... What about the thief crying out to catch the thief? β
"The princess has no evidence to prove that the centipede was released by me, and similarly, there is no evidence to prove that the centipede was not put by the people in the princess's courtyard......"
The meaning of these words is that the princess framed Zhao Zhaoxun, so the thief shouted to catch the thief.
How shamelessly can a man be like this. The He Yi he sent made a mistake, not only did he not apologize with Xiao to calm the turmoil, but he said such things.
Mama Huifen really wanted to shave her ears.
