Chapter 155: The End of the Crossbow
"Father is fine, it's all because of the emperor's help," Chu Yue said softly: "The concubine thanked the emperor." ”
Feng Jixuan frowned slightly, "What else do you want to be so polite between you and me?" ”
He pointed to the stack of files on the table and joked: "If you really want to thank me, then quickly find some clues from the files and help Gonggong Jiang solve the case as soon as possible." ”
Chu Yue picked up the file and flipped through it, "The concubine will naturally do her best." ”
She didn't raise her head, her eyes fixed on the dossier in her hand, and looked at it carefully, for fear of missing a clue.
There was also a thick stack of files on the table, and Feng Jixuan didn't bother Chu Yue, slowly walked out of the side hall and looked at the sky outside.
On this day, it was supposed to rain heavily.
And Wan Guifei of Yunlu Palace has been restless, and when she thinks of Feng Jixuan's face when she left last night, she is always panicked, although this time Feng Jixuan took it lightly, but she took away her power as an assistant to the six palaces, but she always felt that something big was going to happen.
Qingmei folded in because of this incident, and she also got the emperor's suspicion and suspicion, she has been with the emperor for so many years, and she has never made such a mistake!
Qingzhu trembled, poured hot tea, and waited on the side and didn't dare to talk.
If it was me who was waiting at the door last night, I am afraid that it would have been ...... long ago
She didn't dare to think about it anymore, but she only heard Concubine Wan smile coldly, "It's not the worst time yet, and the outcome is still unknown." ”
She swept her phoenix eyes, "How's that going?" ”
Qingzhu hurriedly said: "I'm still waiting for news, and the results will be available around this evening." ”
Wan Guifei forcibly suppressed the bad premonition in her heart, "I hope this matter will not disappoint this palace again." ”
Coincidentally, at this time, the eunuch Liu Gonggong, the head eunuch of Yunlu Palace, walked in in a panic.
"What made you so reckless and come in without a word?"
Wan Guifei raised her eyebrows, but her heart suddenly jumped.
"Niangniang, there are only three pairs of crystal earrings from the Western Kingdom, and the emperor specially ordered to send you the best pair of water colors!"
Gonggong Liu was full of smiles, and his face was full of flattery and flattery.
Crystal drop earrings?
Although Wan Guifei's eyes were full of doubts, she was relieved after seeing the very delicate crystal earrings in the tray, "What should be the matter with this palace, such a reckless surprise has scared this palace." ”
Having said that, the worries in his heart slowly let go, and he glanced at the tray held by the eunuch behind him, and smiled back in his eyes.
Qingzhu was very eye-catching, and hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the pair of red crystal earrings and put them in front of Wan Guifei.
"Niangniang, look at this water, the slave has served you for so many years, and it is the first time to see such a high-grade crystal, it can be seen that the emperor yesterday was just hindered by the queen mother's presence and acting in front of everyone, and the emperor is still the most painful to you!"
These words reached Wan Guifei's heart, and she temporarily forgot about Qingmei, who took her life for this.
"You can talk with this clever mouth," took the earrings in Qingzhu's hand, and Wan Guifei put them in the sun and kept looking at the red water
The light that was refracted by the crystal returned to his former laziness, "The Dragon Boat Festival banquet is coming, it's good to use this pair of earrings." ”
It seems that yesterday it was just the emperor who had to make such a disposition because of the situation.
Eliminating the worries in her heart, Wan Guifei sat back on the soft couch.
"What is a noble person, it seems that it is nothing more than that."
The people in the palace also breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Concubine Wan's face had improved.
The matter of Wan Guifei getting a pair of precious ruby earrings quickly spread in the harem, and the rumor that Wan Guifei would fall out of favor because of the Sanqing Palace dinner has been rumored to be self-defeating.
In the side hall of the Sanqing Palace, Chu Yue was still quiet and low-key as usual.
Chu Yue, who heard about this, didn't care, but smiled sarcastically.
"The end of the strong crossbow is just an illusion of appearance."
Rouge never understood what Chu Yue meant, but Chu Yue didn't miss it every time, so she had to listen to it and didn't agree.
For her, it is a good thing that Wan Guifei can fall, after all, she knows that the Chu family's case also has a share.
In the evening, however, a big event happened.
When Linlang entered the side hall, Chu Yue was bored practicing writing, and when she saw Linlang coming, she asked casually, "What's wrong?" Did something happen? ”
"Noble," Linlang looked a little serious, "Half an hour ago, the slave maid saw Gu Baolin's personal palace maid Yurong in the cold palace, and went to see the jade beauty again. ”
The brush in Chu Yue's hand stopped, "Did you hear what was being said?" ”
"Although the slave maid is a little far away, but the cold palace is quiet and there are few people, so I heard a very important event."
After Linlang finished speaking, she closed the door very carefully before she said: "The letterhead that Yu Meiren handed over to Yurong last time was bought by Yumei for her brother. Official, the amount of silver taels bribed Wan Guifei was as high as three thousand taels, just because Wan Guifei's appetite seemed to be not small, and the matter was not negotiated, Wan Guifei accepted three thousand taels and asked for an additional two thousand taels. ”
It turned out to be a buy. Official!
Chu Yue really didn't expect that Linlang would get such a shocking thing if she kept staring at Yu Meiren and Gu Baolin.
The harem interfered with the appointment of officials in the government, Chu Yue didn't have to think about it at all, he knew how angry Feng Jixuan would be when he knew about it.
And this is not the end, before Chu Yue digested this news, Linlang said the next sentence, which made the brush in Chu Yue's hand fall on the rice paper in a daze.
What was even more shocking was Rouge, who was directly stunned in place for a long time, and didn't react at all.
"Lord Chu was hunted down by assassins, it was Wan Guifei's handiwork, and Yumei was also involved."
The ink smeared on the rice paper in large swaths, and Chu Yue didn't seem to care at all, her eyes burst out with a shocking coldness.
Linlang subconsciously didn't dare to look at those eyes, but only heard Chu Yue say expressionlessly: "Keep talking." ”
"Because the emperor deliberately let people stay alive, the assassin couldn't withstand the torture of Jiang Huai's father-in-law, so he has already recruited, but he didn't mention Wan Guifei."
Chu Yue smiled coldly, "Concubine Wan will pick herself out, and let Yu Meiren do things in her name, even if something happens, it has nothing to do with her." ”
"Nobleman, what should we do?"
When Rouge came back to her senses, her eyes were full of tears, and yesterday's incident failed to bring down Wan Guifei had already made her anxious, and when she heard such news today, she panicked directly.
Rouge has been with the original Chu Yue for so long, and he naturally has feelings for the Chu family, and it is not surprising that he is out of shape at this time.
Chu Yue didn't blame her, but comforted: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already said that Wan Guifei is now at the end of the crossbow, and it won't be long before she jumps, you can relax and believe me." ”
