Chapter VII: Searching the Palace

"Auntie really agreed to search the palace?"

After Kang Mengru finished dinner, she sneaked to find He Mingzhu, and it happened that Su Qin was also there, looking at He Mingzhu worriedly.

He Mingzhu nodded: "Didn't you see that Nie Hongzhao's arrogant and domineering appearance forced my aunt to order a search of the palace." ”

Su Qin saw that Kang Mengru was coming, and the depression on his face eased slightly, "How is it?" What did Zhang Yan say? ”

In fact, the theft of He Mingzhu's bracelet was a game.

He Mingzhu took a fancy to Zhang Yan Xinyi's own bracelet, and then planned such a game with Su Qin, in order to ruin Zhang Yan's reputation and make her unable to participate in this Changyin Pavilion to listen to the play.

If Zhang Yan doesn't participate, she won't be able to see the emperor.

If they can't see the emperor, they will win the emperor's attention more.

Originally, He Mingzhu made a fuss about the theft of the big bracelet, and then Kang Mengru pulled Zhang Yan to see the excitement, and He Mingzhu pointed out on the spot that Zhang Yan had asked him about borrowing a jade bracelet.

In this way, regardless of whether Zhang Yan took He Mingzhu to get the bracelet or not, at least everyone will think that the theft of the bracelet is related to Zhang Yan.

The show girl's hands and feet are not clean, and Aunt Yunxiu Palace and the chief eunuch can't get out of it, so she will naturally investigate it carefully.

This investigation will definitely take some time, and Zhang Yan will not be able to go to Changyin Pavilion to listen to the play.

It's just that I didn't expect to kill Nie Hongzhao halfway.

Nie Hongzhao actually helped Zhang Yan speak, and completely made this matter bigger, and now they are a little difficult to ride.

And Kang Mengru saw that the plan was revealed, so it was not good to leave without permission to find He Mingzhu and Su Qin, so she still followed Zhang Yan back to the room.

Of course, there is also Nie Hongzhao together.

So for dinner, the three of them also used it together.

During this period, Kang Mengru wanted to probe Nie Hongzhao's tone a little, but Nie Hongzhao had been discussing with Zhang Yan that the dish for dinner was good, that dish was slightly lacking in taste, and that dish was not as delicious as the cook at home.

Although Zhang Yan just nodded, she didn't say much.

However, Nie Hongzhao talked a lot, as soon as Kang Mengru opened his mouth, he was immediately staggered by Nie Hongzhao, Kang Mengru knew that Nie Hongzhao was powerful, so he didn't dare to say more, and only ate silently.

The whole meal tastes the same as chewing wax.

When she finished eating, she immediately sneaked over.

"Sister Qin, what should we do?" He Mingzhu looked at Su Qin nervously.

Su Qin is the oldest, the most knowledgeable, and the most thoughtful of the three of them.

Su Qin thought for a moment and asked, "What about the bracelet?" ”

"On me." He Mingzhu specially saw that the room was turned into a mess in front of Linlang today, and Linlang saw it with her own eyes everywhere, she did lose the bracelet, but in fact, the bracelet was on her, if the search palace was fine, I was afraid that she would have to search her body later.

Su Qin immediately decided: "Smash it." ”

"No, you can't." He Mingzhu immediately said nervously: "This is the only relic left to me by my mother, and I can't smash it." ”

"You don't smash? What if the palace is searched? Su Qin carefully analyzed the stakes to He Mingzhu: "If it is found out, you are planting a blame, and you slapped Zhang Yan in public, didn't you hear Nie Hongzhao say?" The rules in the palace, you don't hit people in the face, what is a slap in the face? It's not just her face, but also the face of the person behind her, who left the sign for Zhang Yan? That's the brand left by the queen, regardless of whether Zhang Yan has anything to do with the queen or not, but with Zhang Yan's face, after she soared, she remembered that you framed her today, will she let you go? ”

He Mingzhu was so frightened by Su Qin's words that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.

Seeing He Mingzhu like this, Su Qin continued: "Moreover, you also have to guard against Nie Hongzhao, with her background, it is certain that she will be selected as a concubine, if you are both concubines in the future, and her position is above you, how will she deal with you?" She dares to slap you today, and he is afraid that she will not use other ways to deal with you? ”

He Mingzhu trembled, cold sweat the size of soybeans oozed from her forehead, and she held Su Qin's hand: "Sister Qin, you must help me!" ”

Kang Mengru, who was on the side, also nodded: "Sister, you must help Sister Mingzhu, among the three of us, you are the smartest." ”

"In that case, if you refuse to smash the bracelet, we will be in danger." Su Qin looked at He Mingzhu, and then looked at Kang Mengru on the side, her eyes were sharp, and she said in a low voice: "Now there is still some time before the three quarters of the unitary hour, Mengru, you have a good relationship with Zhang Yan, you lead her to your room, and then, I will go to Aunt Fanzhi to distract them, Mingzhu, you sneak into Zhang Yan's room, put the bracelet in a secret place, and when the time comes, the palace will be searched, and the stolen goods will be obtained, we just take this opportunity to get rid of Zhang Yan, and Nie Hongzhao ......." ”

Su Qin thought for a while, grabbed the back of He Mingzhu's hand, and continued: "Isn't she going to stand up for Zhang Yan?" It depends on how she explains this time, I won't let you suffer in vain with that slap. ”

He Mingzhu's eyes were full of emotion, and she nodded, "Sister Qin, I know you are the best for me." ”

Three quarters of the unitary hour.

Officially search the palace.

All the show girls gathered in the main hall of Yunxiu Palace to rest.

Aunt Fanzhi took the palace maid and the eunuch to the east and west wings to search the rooms of each show girl.

This search will definitely not come back for a while, and the show girls sit opposite each other, and look at each other, but do not speak.

Only Fang Yanyu, who was an idle winner, took the pastries on the dwarf rock in his hand, ate one piece after another, and occasionally handed a piece to Nie Hongzhao beside him.

Nie Hongzhao shook his head, but took the pastry, handed it to Zhang Yan, who looked nervous on the side, and said to her softly, "Don't be afraid. ”

Zhang Yan looked at her, tears rolled in her eyes, she didn't know why, this sentence was like a needlepoint, poking her heart.

No one had ever cared so much about her.

Once upon a time at home, her mother was a roommate, although she was pregnant as an aunt, but she was still the last aunt, no one could afford it, not to mention that she was a woman, and she was even more insignificant to her father, who already had five daughters.

If it weren't for her growing up and becoming more and more iconic, where would her father and mother be able to see her.

She has been used to groveling to people since she was a child, and her mother taught her to be polite and give three points.

She didn't dare to speak loudly to anyone, nor did she dare to refute anyone, she had been living carefully, whether she was in the mansion in the past, or she chose a show girl and then in the palace.

Everyone only sighed at her beauty, but they never looked up to her in their hearts.

She looks beautiful, her appearance is just a skin, but she needs this skin.

If she doesn't have this skin, she won't even be qualified to enter the palace draft, she is not good, and she will also have a bad life for her mother.

However, the-for-tat confrontation of everyone in this harem made her walk on thin ice.

Nie Hongzhao......

This person who once wished for her to die ended up being the one who helped her the most.

She really didn't understand, she couldn't guess, she didn't know what to do with her, she didn't dare to make friends with anyone, she was afraid that others would just do it, but she would be willing, and then she would be too humble.

She was even more afraid, what would she do if one day, this good thing suddenly disappeared?

Kang Mengru sat beside Zhang Yan, but her eyes kept glancing at Su Qin and He Mingzhu.

He Mingzhu nodded quietly.

Su Qin also smiled at the corner of his lips.

The performance of these two people made most of the stones in Kang Mengru's heart drop.

She only breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, turned her head and was about to say a few words to Zhang Yan, but she looked at Nie Hongzhao with a meaningful look, she was stunned, quickly turned her head, picked up a piece of pastry, and stuffed it into her mouth in a panic to chew.
