Chapter 9 Interlocking
"Osmanthus?" Empress Chen didn't seem to understand what the osmanthus in the fruit wine had to do with Fang Ziying's sudden fainting.
Qin Yunxiang lowered her head and reminded softly, "Queen Mother, I seem to have heard that Sister Fang is allergic to osmanthus, and she is very allergic, and if she smells it a little, she will have a rash, and at worst, she will faint and faint, and she will be unconscious." ”
After Qin Yunxiang finished speaking, he looked at Qin Yunuan with deep meaning, "Sister, what my sister said is right, my sister and Sister Fang have a good relationship, so naturally I know that Sister Fang is allergic to osmanthus." ”
Before Qin Yunuan could speak, Empress Chen's eyes like cold knives smashed over, and Empress Chen's fingertips knocked lightly and heavily on the small mahogany coffee table, as if she was thinking.
"I ......." Qin Yunuan opened her mouth, looking like she wanted to argue but was indisputable.
At that time, Qin Yunxiang glanced at Shangguan Yi who was waiting on the side, and Shangguan Yi immediately shouted, "Eh, look at what is in Sister Qin's cuffs, bulging." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the angry Li family girl immediately stepped forward, and no matter what the rules were unruly, she immediately pulled out a piece of red rope that came out of Qin Yunuan's cuffs at some point, and even a small sachet fell out, with yellow lines on a red background, only half the length and width of her index finger, and put it in the sleeve cage, if you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.
The girl of the Li family was very fast, and she opened the sachet in only two clicks, and a scent of osmanthus lingered and dispersed, but the fragrant smell seemed so provocative at the moment, and the air seemed to be filled with a strange and alert smell.
"It's osmanthus." Shangguan Yi shouted loudly, as if she had found something good, with a smug look on her face that was difficult to hide, "Okay, Sister Fang is in a coma, you just left the table, Sister Fang is allergic to osmanthus, you also happen to know that Sister Fang has added more osmanthus to her fruit wine, and you happen to have osmanthus hidden on your body, Qin Yunuan, you have such a poisonous heart." ”
Qin Yunuan only glanced at the sachet, and then replied categorically, "This sachet is not mine." ”
"And said it wasn't yours," Shangguan Yi was anxious, and couldn't hide anything, "What do you mean, is it possible that which of us deliberately framed and stuffed this sachet into your sleeve?" ”
"Sister Shangguan, what are you excited about?" Qin Yunuan had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyebrows and eyes curved into a good-looking arc, compared with Shangguan Yi's impatience, she seemed so quiet and unfazed, "Sister just said that this sachet is not mine, and the matter of framing and marrying is all Shangguan sister, you said it yourself." ”
Shangguan Yi's face turned white again in an instant, and she just looked at Qin Yunxiang as if asking for help, Qin Yunxiang had a cold face, and vaguely felt that this matter didn't seem to be as smooth as she had designed.
"What's the noise?" Empress Chen sank her face, "The palace is still here, speaking of which, all of them are all beautiful girls, now, where are the rules?" After speaking, he stared at Shangguan Yi for a long time, and only after a long time did he stop his eyes.
At this time, it happened that the palace people came to report that Zhu'er, who was on an errand in the plum garden, was found, and then, a slender and timid little palace maid was brought up by Mama Xing, trembling towards Queen Chen, and quickly knelt down.
"Slave maid...... Slave Bead ...... Meet the Queen, Queen Saint Ann. Zhu'er made a big bow in fear, and when she saw Qin Yunuan kneeling beside her, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Yo, look at the eyes of that little palace maid, it seems that she and Sister Qin are old acquaintances." Shangguan Yi spared no effort to smear Qin Yunuan.
Empress Chen pursed the corners of her mouth, "Zhu'er, you raise your head, this palace has something to ask you, Miss Qin San left the table, but you are with you?" ”
Pearls nodded.
"Later, you came back alone, but you didn't see Miss Qin San, what happened?"
Zhu'er raised her head tremblingly, and happened to see Qin Yunxiang waiting beside the queen mother, and Miss Qin San wanted her to report to this girl, but she was just ...... After thinking about it, Zhu'er gritted her teeth and slammed her head on the ground, "The third girl of Qin broke her foot in the plum garden, and the slave maid came back to report to the eldest girl of the Qin family, saying that after the ceremony of hanging silk flowers was over, let the eldest girl of the Qin family send someone to take her back." ”
When the words fell, Qin Yunxiang's face had already changed twice, and at this time, Qin Yunuan also looked up at Qin Yunxiang a little timidly, one with a fierce face, and the other with grievances, Queen Chen saw it in her eyes.
Empress Chen swept Qin Yun's makeup slightly with her afterglow, and said to Zhu'er, "And then?" ”
Zhu'er shrunk her neck, didn't dare to look at Qin Yun's gaze like a cold wind, lowered her head, and said angrily, "Later, when the slave maid went to find Miss Qin to report the news, she only said the sentence 'Miss Qin San broke her foot in the plum garden', and was coaxed out by a girl next to Miss Qin. ”
"Why?" Empress Chen's phoenix eyes raised slightly.
Zhu'er still gritted her teeth and seemed to have made a lot of determination, "She said, she said that the eldest girl of the Qin family couldn't listen to the name of the third girl of the Qin family the most, saying that the slave maid was ignorant and deliberately came to anger the eldest girl of the Qin family. ”
Suddenly, the hall was silent, Qin Yunuan had long expected that according to Qin Yun's temperament, he would not send someone to pick him up in time, but what he didn't expect was that there was such a thing here, and this matter was developing more and more in his favor.
With Zhu'er's words, Qin Yunuan also made a look of surprise, her eyes widened, with innocence and sadness. looks like he wants to complain but doesn't dare to complain.
The first to speak, it was still Concubine Yun, who was holding the hand stove that warmed her hands, "Yo, it turns out that there is still this one, my sister doesn't feel sorry for my sister, and even my sister doesn't care about her foot," After that, she pretended to be surprised again, "Ouch, in this way, it turns out that this third girl of Qin is leaving the table, and this eldest girl of the Qin family also knows, yo yo, this matter is getting more and more interesting." ”
"Don't blame my sister," Qin Yunuan's eyes were red, and she avoided Qin Yun's gaze as if she was going to eat people, "Fang Caizhu'er also said, which sister next to her sister spoke carelessly, the blood of the courtiers and sisters is thicker than water, how could the sister let the courtiers leave it alone." After that, he raised his head again, and asked Qin Yunxiang for instructions, "Sister, you said yes." ”
Qin Yun's makeup face stiffened, and he was so angry in private that he almost twisted the veil into two sections, but almost in an instant, Qin Yun's makeup was dyed with a layer of gentleness and pity, "Yes, it's only to blame those who have ghosts in their hearts and deliberately divide the feelings of our sisters, if you know that your sister is suffering like that in the plum garden, don't say that you sent someone to go, I can't help but go and pick up my sister back in person." ”
After Qin Yunxiang finished speaking, his eyes glanced at Shangguan Yi who lowered his head, isn't she horizontal? Didn't you make a look of being angry for yourself when this pearl came to report the news? Now it's good to throw this burden to yourself.
Empress Chen didn't say a word from beginning to end, just looked coldly at the different expressions on everyone's faces, hidden, exposed, frightened, and surprised, all of which fell into her eyes without exception, but only ......
Empress Chen looked at Qin Yunuan's reddish eyes and straight back, as if she was telling the grievances of being wronged and the innocence that could not be doubted, if this was pretended, it would be too good.
At this time, Mama Xing came in again and said something in Queen Chen's ear, Empress Chen twisted her eyebrows, waved her hand to let Mama Xing retreat, and took a sip of tea, "The imperial doctor came to report, Miss Fang is no longer in trouble." ”
Everyone at the moment breathed a sigh of relief, but Empress Chen turned her head to Qin Yunxiang and asked, "Is it true that Miss Fang is allergic to osmanthus flowers?" Where did you hear that? ”
Qin Yunxiang said while covering his veil, "How can it be fake, I sat next to my sister and Sister Fang before, and I heard the two of them talk about this matter, indeed...... Alas," before he finished speaking, he just sighed heavily and said to Qin Yunuan, "Sister, sister, why are you so confused, fortunately, Sister Fang is fine now......." ”
Qin Yunuan shook her head again and again, looking like she wanted to argue, but she heard Empress Chen say in a low tone, "But the imperial doctor just came to report that Miss Fang didn't faint because of osmanthus allergy, but was dyed with some other unclean things." After that, I took another sip of tea, but I felt that the tea was cold, so I pushed away the tea cup and asked Mama Xing to replace it with a new one.
It wasn't until the new hot tea was brought that Empress Chen said slowly, "Or rather, Miss Fang is actually not allergic to osmanthus at all. After speaking, he also looked at Qin Yun's makeup in an inquiring manner, and said, "So, you said that you heard that Miss Fang is allergic to osmanthus, where did you hear about it?" ”
Qin Yunxiang's lips trembled slightly, and he hurriedly knelt down with the hem of his skirt, and said with tears in his eyes, "The queen mother spares her life, the courtiers really just heard Sister Fang and her sister talking about it at the banquet, the courtiers, the courtiers have absolutely no other meaning." ”
Qin Yunuan also followed her head and told the ins and outs of the fact that the girl of the Shang family wanted to exchange flower sacs with Fang Ziying at the banquet before, and then leaned over and said, "At that time, it was the courtier's daughter who said that Sister Fang was allergic to osmanthus in order to help Sister Fang, but I was afraid that someone with a heart would listen to it, so she was framed afterwards." The three words of the caring person were meaningful, and Qin Yunuan deliberately glanced at Qin Yunxiang, and he didn't know if Queen Chen could understand what she meant.
"Heh, look at what you say, this palace is like a tiger, isn't it just a flower sac? In the end, the palace didn't say what about the girl of the Shang family? Concubine Yun sneered.
Oh, it's nothing, everyone is kneeling and crying like this, if this is no matter what, I'm afraid that even the emperor will be alarmed. Qin Yunuan whispered to herself.
"Jin Su," this is the second time that Empress Chen has called Concubine Yun by her name today, "The matter has passed, what did you do repeatedly?" In front of the younger generations, there should also be a generous appearance. ”
Qin Yunuan's meaning, Queen Chen naturally understood, she squinted at Qin Yun's makeup, and only a disgust rose in her heart, she had always thought that this Qin family's concubine was extremely smart, but she didn't expect that today would cause such an unending situation, and moreover, it was at the banquet that she had carefully prepared.
Yun Guifei was not discouraged by Queen Chen's words, but became more and more provocative, "The queen's sister has not said everything yet," In short, the more chaotic Queen Chen is here, the happier she is, "The queen's sister said that the girl was contaminated with other unclean things, what is it that is unclean?" Does the queen's sister still have to hide it? ”
Empress Chen's cold eyes swept over Concubine Yun's pride like watching a play, and she no longer covered it, her body was raised back, and she said directly, "It's Xianmao." ”
