Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Jade Pendant
Concubine De slowly stood up straight, and under the support of Jinxiu, her posture was graceful and her steps slowly paced in front of the palace maids and eunuchs.
She stepped on the vermilion soft-soled embroidered shoes, the pearl ornaments on the upper of the shoes shook and trembled, calmly walked in front of them, and said coldly: "Okay, I think you have taken care of your mother for many years, and you are also a big palace maid, so I will spare you this time and punish you for two months." ”
Xiufang stopped when she heard this, she bowed respectfully to Concubine Tong again, her face was full of gratitude, "Thank you Niangniang for your grace, thank you Niangniang for your grace, the slave will not do it again in the future." ”
Concubine De was graceful, and her skirt fluttered slowly around them, and then stopped in the middle, her tone was serious and cold, her face was cold, and she scolded loudly.
"You listen to this palace, if you dare not know whether you are dead or alive, and the current situation occurs again, even if your mother lets you go, this palace will not let you go."
"Yes, the slave maid (slave) knows," the palace maid and the eunuch immediately replied in unison.
"You remember, in the future, you must not leave without permission, who dares to make the same mistake again, whether you have it intentionally or unintentionally, you must be severely punished, and then don't blame this palace."
"Yes, slave remembers."
"Yes, the minion remembers."
……
Cuiying and the others immediately replied loudly, Jinxiu took a few steps forward, and gently helped Cuiying up, Cuiying hurriedly helped Xiufang up, and a group of eunuchs and palace maids saluted Concubine De and retreated, leaving Cuiying to wait for Mrs. Li inside.
*
Others don't know what happened in Mrs. Li's palace, but how can they escape Queen Cheng Lingyue's eyes.
"Niangniang, Concubine De asked Imperial Doctor Qiu to help find out Mrs. Li's illness." A little eunuch knelt in front of Queen Cheng Lingyue and whispered a report.
He paused and didn't hear Empress Cheng Lingyue speak, so he continued: "Concubine De has not punished anyone else except for deducting a big palace maid for a month, and she has not even reported this matter to the emperor. ”
He was very puzzled to find out that the concubine was sent down to such an important matter, why Concubine De didn't report it, even Mrs. Li's palace turned the big things into small things, and the small things were revealed in the past.
Queen Cheng Lingyue hooked her lips and smiled slightly, of course she understood what Concubine De's intentions were.
First, there must be few people who can find Wushisan in the palace, and it is not something she can knock down at will.
Second, she has no evidence for Concubine De, and she is expected to attract the attention of the palace, so it is better to let Mrs. Li's illness be cured as an ordinary wind and cold.
She did this as a sign of weakness, hoping that she would let Mrs. Li go.
It's just a revenge for killing a woman, is she likely to let her go?
Cheng Lingyue couldn't control the sudden outbreak of killing intent on his body, which made the little eunuch kneeling in front of him shiver, and his body fell lower.
Then Cheng Lingyue asked Qingxin to reward the little eunuch with some silver taels, and sent the little eunuch away.
*
"Little master, Mrs. Li's illness is cured." Zhou Anju secretly reported the news to Yun Xiaoxiao.
He couldn't understand why the little lord should pay attention to Mrs. Li's affairs.
"Did the emperor send someone to see it?" Yun Dawn is most concerned about this.
"Yes, Mr. Su has been there in person, and he has also sent others over to see it a few times." After Zhou Anju heard Yun Xiaoxiao's inquiry, he immediately told everything he had observed in the past few days.
The emperor sent someone to look at it a few times, why didn't Concubine De report the truth to the emperor?
And does the emperor really not know the truth?
With Nangong Qing's suspicious character, it is impossible not to know, so why does he pretend not to know?
Did he want to do something?
In her previous life, although Yun Xiaoxiao was very familiar with Nangong Qing, she could guess what Nangong Qing was thinking most of the time, but now she really couldn't guess why Nangong Qing didn't say or do anything, she really didn't understand.
But now, whether she understands it or not, she has to poke it out, but not through her hands.
She needs to think about it.
Queen Cheng Lingyue wants to deal with Mrs. Li, and now that Mrs. Li and Concubine De are standing together, then it is equivalent to the queen having to deal with Concubine De and Mrs. Li.
I really hope that Mrs. Li and Concubine De will not be defeated so quickly.
I don't know why, Yun Xiaoxiao decided in her heart that it was Concubine De and Mrs. Li who were defeated, or in her heart, she always believed that her ultimate enemy was Cheng Lingyue.
"Little master, Manager Su is here." A hurried Kikyo walked in from outside.
Yun Xiaoxiao listened to it and tidied up her hairpin and dress a little and walked out with Xiaojuan's hand, and as soon as she walked to the door of the hall, Su Pei'an walked in.
"The slave greets the little master." Su Pei'an was not arrogant because he was the father-in-law of Nangong Qing, and immediately bowed down to say hello when he saw Yun Xiaoxiao.
"Mr. Su, please get up quickly." Yun Xiaoxiao stretched out his hand and helped him, "I don't know who Mr. Su is?" ”
"The emperor has decreed, and the little lord will sleep tonight." Mr. Su reported to the clouds with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Su, for your trip." Yun Xiaoxiao turned around and gestured to Xiaojuan.
Xiaojuan immediately stuffed a purse into Su Pei'an's hand, "Manager, I have to make a trip for you, this is for you to drink." ”
Su Pei'an was not polite, put away the purse with a smile, and then withdrew.
Su Pei'an returned to the Heart Cultivation Palace, found an empty purse and presented it to Nangong Qing, Nangong Qing raised his eyebrows suspiciously, "This is?" ”
"Your Majesty, this is the little master of Xi who rewarded the slaves for drinking, but ......" Su Pei'an poured out the contents of his purse a little apprehensively.
At first, he thought it was silver taels, so he accepted it very calmly, but when he opened his purse and looked at it, he was a little confused, and finally decided that it would be better to show this to the emperor.
From the purse, there were about five taels of broken silver and a piece of topaz jade.
This piece of topaz jade is luster and translucent, and it also glows with soft fluorescence, and you can still feel a warm feeling in your hand, and you can see that it is not an ordinary product, and I don't know if it is a gift from the little master, so he took it to Nangong Qing to see.
Nangong Qing took the jade pendant and glanced at it, then threw it back into Su Pei'an's hand, "You can take it if the little master rewards you." ”
Although the color of this jade pendant is not bad, it is not a thing in the palace, presumably Yun Xiaoxiao doesn't know where to get it.
Hey, it's not from the palace? So where did she get it from?
Could it be that other concubines rewarded it?
The show girls in the palace or the palace maids, no matter which one is in the palace, they can't bring things into the palace from outside the palace.
Even clothes can't be brought into the palace, so those palace people will compete to go to the palaces to pass the decree, in order to reward the masters of each palace with silver or reward.
And those concubines who have some net worth, generally after being favored, when they see their families, family members with net worth will send a lot of small denomination silver tickets to the daughters of the family as a silver reward.
But Yun Xiaoxiao hasn't had a chance to see her family yet, where did she come from?
