Ouyang Zhen was in the inner hall, put the snow water collected by the palace maid in a clay pot, boiled it first, then sealed the lid with mud, and buried it under the plum tree in the pavilion.

He also carefully grinded the petals he had collected, and treated the flower ointment, incense powder, and the like according to his own secret recipe. Life has been very fulfilling.

Wan Hui took a hand on the side, and saw her plain jade hand rising and falling in the pink petals, which were three points more beautiful than the most beautiful petals.

She couldn't help sighing: "Niangniang, the slave has never seen such a calm person as Niangniang." Ouyang Zhen didn't raise his head, and suddenly smiled: "I thought that my aunt was also a person with a heart like an ancient well, why couldn't she bear it more than me several times?" ”

Wan Hui was stunned when she heard this, but she was stunned.

Yes, doesn't she boast that she can see through it, why is she suffering from gains and losses like this now?

She lost her mind for a while before she said: "Somehow, the slave maid thought that the mother and the emperor were a couple, so she was anxious." Slaves and maids should be punished. "If you care, it's messy, and she can't be exempt from vulgarity.

Ouyang Zhen raised his head and smiled: "Auntie is also good for me, I can reflect on myself." It's just that aunt, don't forget, this is a harem. Her smile was as clear as water, and there was no trace of resentment on her beautiful face, but the last two words she said were particularly heavy. It's like nailing it to a board.

A trace of shame appeared on Wan Hui's face, and she said in a low voice: "The slave remembers." ”

At this moment, Ming Ying suddenly came in with a strange face: "Niangniang, the slave has something, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Ouyang Zhen put down the work in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't say it if you don't say it, if you want to say it, say it quickly." What to sell. Seeing that Wan Hui was also there, Ming Ying bit her teeth, and suddenly stepped forward and whispered a few words to Ouyang Zhen.

Ouyang Zhen's face gradually became solemn when he heard this, although Wan Hui couldn't hear it, she also knew that things were not ordinary.

"If what you say is true, this harem should be turned upside down." Ouyang Zhen said suddenly.

Wan Hui asked with her eyes, Ouyang Zhen led the two into the inner room, put down the curtain and said, "Say it, talk about it carefully." ”

Ming Ying nodded and said: "The slave maid has led the little emperor to play in the small forest on the edge of the "Shufu Palace" in the past few days, but she can see that the Wang Mama next to Concubine Xu probed her brain, and led a strange old woman in, and the slave and maid saw that the old lady was not like the people in the palace, and she was puzzled, and then turned to their backyard, climbed the wall, and saw ...... I saw that the old lady had changed into clothes covered in strips of cloth, like a dancing god, an incense burner, and a dog's blood, and a ragdoll-like villain, with the eight characters of birth written on it...... The old lady also painted a lot of strange patterns on her face, which was very scary. ”

After speaking, the warbler spit out her powdered tongue. Wan Hui gasped when she heard this: "Is this Concubine Xu tired?" How did you get this filthy thing to the palace? ”

Ouyang Zhen frowned deeply: "You went over there to play with Little Emperor Ji, but does anyone know?" ”

Ming Ying thought for a while, and then said: "No one knows, the slave and maid are passing by, and let the emperor run over there, because there is a small pond four or five feet square, and there are a few fish in it, and the little emperor likes to see it, so the slave and the maid let her watch on the side." Besides, the forest is biased in the backyard of their palace, and no one can see it. ”

Ouyang Zhen nodded: "That's good, don't go over there these days, go to Wan Zhaoyi's side to play." Besides, you go and inquire about what is wrong with Concubine Xu, and come back to tell me, remember, you are not allowed to tell others about this, and you are not allowed to say a word. ”

Ming Ying nodded and said: "Don't worry, Concubine Xu's slave has a little sister, who is doing sprinkler cleaning in her yard, she was beaten by Concubine Xu a few days ago, and the slave and maid secretly gave her a few bottles of wound medicine, and she regarded the slave and maid as intimate sisters." If you want to figure it out, it's up to her. ”

Ouyang Zhen sat down and nodded: "You should also be careful, don't let anyone find out." There are eyeliners of various palaces everywhere in this palace, and maybe someone else knows about it. Let's be careful. ”

Ming Ying nodded, and was about to go out, when Ouyang Zhen called her again: "Is there enough silver around you?" I'll give you some more, and I'll do a little more in the next few days. As he spoke, he took a piece of silver from the dressing table and gave it to her.

Mingying didn't shirk it, and took it with a smile. Wan Hui saw her leaving, so she said: "This Concubine Xu is not crazy, how did she put this dirty thing in the palace, she doesn't know how many people died in this matter in the previous dynasty?" ”

Although Wan Hui entered the palace not long ago, she often inquired into the secrets of the Chu Palace, but she knew that the harem of Emperor Chu De of the previous dynasty had several lives because of this kind of thing, so it was very taboo to use witchcraft in the harem.

Ouyang Zhen nodded, and suddenly smiled coldly: "She's crazy, I thought she could have some talent, but I didn't expect that she still has a posture and no brain." Looks like she's going to have to fall to figure it out. ”

Wan Hui thought about it carefully and asked tentatively, "What is the mother going to do?" Do you want us to do it ourselves? ”

Ouyang Zhen knocked on the table with his hand, drew in circles, and thought for a while before saying, "No, we don't do it, some people want to take this head." We're just ...... like this," she whispered, leaning into Wan Hui's ear.

Wan Hui nodded: "Niang Niang is smart, anyway, in the end, it has nothing to do with us, we just look at it." ”

Ouyang Zhen also smiled indifferently.

……

A few days later, Ouyang Zhen was writing in the warm pavilion of "Huayan Palace", and copied another Buddhist scripture. Mingying led someone in and said, "Niangniang, someone has brought it." Waiting outside the curtain. ”

Ouyang Zhen looked at the sky, it was almost noon rest, and he stopped writing and asked, "Can anyone see it?" Mingying shook her head and whispered, "It's from the forest behind, and the slave maid also changed her clothes." Those grandmothers also slept before they dared to come out. ”

Ouyang Zhen nodded and called her in. Mingying took her hand and dragged her in: "Don't worry, my mother is very kind and won't say it." ”

The palace maid came in, glanced at Ouyang Zhen quickly, and then knelt down, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Ye of the slave 'Shufu Palace' asks for peace to Concubine Rou." ”

Ouyang Zhen nodded: "Get up, come over and let the palace take a look." She moved timidly. Ouyang Zhen picked up her hand, turned it over and looked at it, but also took a breath of cold air.

The palms of the hands were covered with chilblains and cracks, and the blood had not yet coagulated.

Ouyang Zhen saw that she was skinny and about to float away as soon as the wind blew, so his eyebrows wrinkled: "Why is it not good." Didn't the warbler give you medicine? ”
