Chapter 190
And the mastermind Lu Huiling stayed out of the matter.
But all this was chosen by the nobleman herself, when she chose to save her family, she had to help Lu Huiling with things, and now although she has remorse, there is no turning back.
It's just that I'm very sorry for Concubine Mei, who is kind-hearted, but she has to be persecuted like this.
Xue Guiren looked out of the window with a desperate face, and then smiled at Ah Xun and said, "If you like it, you can eat it yourself, and I'll eat some more glutinous rice balls." ”
Ah Xun's tears fell when she heard this, she cried and knelt beside the nobleman and said, "Why do you suffer from the nobleman? Concubine Ming's reward, you just eat it, what are you doing? At the family banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, we can only eat some rice balls, and it is excellent that Concubine Ming can send some food... You can take a bite..."
Xue Guiren shook his head, Ah Xun would never understand her inner thoughts, but after all, there was no need for her to understand in the future, Xue Guiren smiled helplessly: "I'm full." ”
Ah Xun only said that the nobleman was arrogant and didn't eat the things sent by Concubine Ming, and she herself knew that Concubine Mei was better than Concubine Ming, and in the process of getting along with Concubine Mei, she regretted her approach more than once, but now that things have happened, what Noble Lady probably wants is to take all the blame on herself as much as possible, and try not to implicate Concubine Mei.
But how is it possible, the Chinese New Year's Eve feast was handled by Concubine Mei, and now it is smashed, and the people in the palace think that spies from other countries have entered the imperial city to endanger the dignitaries, and those high-ranking officials and dignitaries have been in danger.
Even if the nobleman finally admits his sin, but the emperor will definitely punish Concubine Mei together, on this occasion, he actually teaches people to do such an unseemly thing, how important is this year's Chinese New Year's Eve state banquet.
Those who disrupt the state banquet should be punished with beheading, and if the emperor is angry, there will be more serious punishment for the nine clans...
The nobles couldn't help but sigh: Why didn't they think of this layer at the beginning, I only hope that Lu Huiling can keep his promise and save their family's life from beginning to end.
"What happened at the hunting ground, can you find out?" The nobleman lowered his head and quietly ate the dumplings in the bowl, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and then looked at Ah Xun, who was crying and red-eyed, and asked, "Princess Jing... But dead? ”
Although Guiren is not a saint, he doesn't want to kill people, if Liang Huanqing is really dead, even if she didn't kill herself, she will be extremely guilty in her heart.
The Liang Mansion has done a lot of good things for the country and the people, and General Liang is a rare general genius in ten thousand years.
So since childhood, the big hero in the minds of the nobles has been shaped in this way, and that is the image of General Liang.
Now what she is doing has endangered General Liang's daughter, and she is very unbearable and self-reproachful, but what can she do, her father has done something wrong, and if she wants to live, she has to do something against her conscience.
Ah Xun shed tears to watch the nobles eat these rice balls quietly, although it is Chinese New Year's Eve, but it is about to be spring, there is still some sun today, it should be very good weather, archery and horse riding are very matters, if there is no such thing as what happened this morning, there is still a much-anticipated fireworks feast to watch tonight.
Sunlight shone into the house through the glazed glass windows, the glazed tiles were blue and red, and the house was baked with charcoal fires, and they only opened a little window, and used a screen to block the wind from blowing straight in.
The house is as warm as spring, which in the past, Ah Xun did not dare to be so extravagant and wasteful, but now that they have arrived in this field, they have nothing to think about, and they have not had a warm year since they arrived in the palace, and now they are warming this winter through foreseeable death.
The nobleman sat still, the sun shone on her knees, it was a beautiful and quiet scene, they all said that the nobleman's lips were very good, like Empress Mingxian, Ah Xun had never seen Empress Mingxian, but looking left and right, the nobleman was the nobleman, and he never looked like anyone.
The noble person in Ah Xun's mind will always be a gentle and quiet lady, with a kind heart and filial piety to her parents, even in the palace, she loves the man who sits on the throne very much, and she will never fight or rob, and she will not cause trouble to the family, even if she does something wrong, she is extremely self-reproachful.
When Ah Xun went out to the imperial dining room to ask for some glutinous rice flour and sesame balls to make rice balls for the nobles, he went to inquire about the situation of the hunting grounds, and he was busy for a while, so he didn't talk about it with the nobles.
At this time, the noble man asked, and she also knew that she wanted to say it in hindsight: "If the noble person doesn't say it, Ah Xun will forget it." ”
Guiren looked at her with disgust and asked, "You, you never know which is more important, if I am really not here this time, what can you do?" ”
Ah Xun was slightly stunned, if the nobleman was executed by the emperor because of this matter, she would naturally follow, this is a very normal reason, how can it be a little strange to say it in the mouth of the nobleman, is it possible that she can still live?
Seeing that Ah Xun was stunned, Guiren nodded her head and said coquettishly: "Then since I asked, why don't you hurry up." ”
When she was eating dumplings just now, Guiren didn't dare to ask, not because she didn't want to know, but because she didn't dare.
"During the hunting ground, Princess Wangshu was going to shoot that feather arrow at Princess Jing, but I don't know why, a palace maid rushed out from the side and blocked the feather arrow for Princess Jing..."
A trace of cold sweat appeared behind the nobleman, she squeezed the handkerchief in her hand tightly, a little worried that after the matter was revealed, Lu Huiling would tear her to death, not to mention that she was executed, even the Yin family would be questioned together.
"What about the palace maid? Are you still alive? The noble man didn't dare to think about it anymore, and hurriedly asked.
If the palace maid is still alive, she must know something, if this is really the case, the emperor will inevitably ask her personally, if the palace maid tells her full plan before the holy drive, then not only her, but Lu Huiling will also be to blame.
It is not Lu Huiling who cares about the nobles, but also the lives of the Yin Xue family that she is holding tightly in her hands.
Lu Huiling once warned her that if things didn't work out, but were exposed because of her carelessness, then her family in Jingzhou didn't want to live.
It's easy to let them die, and now that Yin Zhi's family is a civilian, what are they going to do to fight with Lu Xiangfu?
Lu Xiangfu has Lu Gaohong, the head of a hundred officials in the court, and the current prince Qi Jingyang, whose mother's family is a generation of famous businessmen, and it is as simple as pinching an ant to death to make the Yin family miserable.
Guiren didn't want to do this, she was really scared, and at that moment she clearly understood the importance of power.
Ah Xun can naturally know the worries of the nobles, she shook her head and said with relief: "Don't worry, the nobles are dead, the palace maid died, an arrow passed through the chest, and she died without taking a few breaths, but the blood flowed all over the ground, and Princess Wangshu and Princess Jing were also stained, and it was quite exciting for them." ”
"Where are Princess Wangshu and Princess Jing now?" The nobleman hurriedly asked.
"Yichun Palace, Aunt Yun Xi of Yichun Hall took them back to rest, I heard that Concubine Mei fainted because of this incident. Now the Imperial Forest Army is still investigating the palaces, and I think that the emperor will investigate this matter thoroughly in the near future, and the masters in the palace and the envoys of the banquet are all panicked, and they can't wait..."
The emperor thoroughly investigated this matter, that is, the death of the nobleman was approaching.
The nobles originally wanted to see Princess Wangshu and Princess Jing, and wanted to find out from their mouths whether the palace maid had said something before she died, but now that they are in the Yichun Palace, the nobles are unwilling to go over.
I was originally used as a gun by Lu Huiling, and once the state banquet that Mei Guifei worked so hard to manage was destroyed, it would affect her so much that she would no longer be valued by the emperor, and she would not be able to complete her crime if she died, how could she dare to go to Yichun Hall to find Mei Guifei now?
Thinking about it, Concubine Mei will also deeply blame herself for listening to the words of the nobles in the first place, and use such rules to dabble, right? Is it bad to shoot a rabbit well?
According to the reason given by Lu Huiling, when the time comes, Guiren will have to admit that she is jealous, and she is obviously capable of being superior, but the emperor only takes a fancy to Concubine Mei alone, so she thought of destroying this state banquet and letting the emperor look at her.
And Lu Huiling also promised that she would do her best to save the lives of the nobles' family.
At this point, there is no turning back.
The nobleman looked at the faint sun outside the window, and it was difficult to tell all the feelings in his heart.

Liang was originally inspecting the Xiazhou capital so that the officials and troops of the various state capitals could strengthen their defenses and have a foolproof life of this Chinese New Year's Eve.
This was originally what Liang Fengmian wanted to do, but now that Liang Fengmian is not in Beijing, he, as Liang Fengmian's son, has to do it for him.
The inspection was very simple, it was completed in the morning, and Liang Lian also declined the banquet of the state officials, and hurried back to the barracks to celebrate the New Year with the soldiers.
When he first returned to Shangjing, Liang Lin felt that his eyelids were beating wildly, and he felt a little bad in his heart, but he didn't care much about anything, sat on horseback and staggered towards the barracks, and smiled mockingly: "What else can be bad, now that the New Year is celebrated, it is really unfounded." ”
