Chapter 123: If she doesn't admit it, will she clear her suspicions?
Fengyi Palace, magnificent, majestic and prominent.
Jing Guiren came to the queen early to say goodbye, and specially ordered someone to hold a pot of blooming peony flowers, and blessed the queen who was sitting on the soft couch and reading the scroll: "The concubine sees the queen's mother, this is a newly cultivated variety in the flower room, white peony flowers, it is really precious, the concubine specially brought it to Fengyi Palace, please enjoy the queen's mother." ”
Yan'er, the maidservant beside the queen, rolled her eyes and said disdainfully: "What is there in our palace?" Niangniang's food and clothing are the best, but you can't do this pot of broken flowers? ”
Jing Guiren's face was slightly embarrassed, but she still maintained a respectful smile, and her charming face was like a ripe peach, which was hard to forget at a glance.
She smiled with a smile: "The concubine has nothing to offer to the queen, just thinking that the peony is the king of flowers, and the colors are gorgeous." The white peony flower is even rarer, symbolizing the dignified atmosphere and worthy of the identity of the queen's mother. If the mother doesn't like it, the concubine will take it and lose it, so I implore the mother to forgive the concubine for the sake of the concubine's sincerity. ”
Yan'er couldn't help laughing, with a weird look of yin and yang, and glanced at Jing Guiren: "Sincere!?" When the nobles and slaves were serving the mother in Fengyi Palace, why didn't they see you so sincere? Now that you have become the emperor's concubine, you have been running to the mother for three days and two times, who knows if you have other ghost thoughts? ”
"Yan'er, don't be rude to Jing nobles." The queen put away the scroll, raised her eyes, and looked at the peonies with a blank face, calm as a waterway, "This flower is good, stay." ”
Jing Guiren saluted with a smile: "Concubine, thank you for the queen's love." ”
The queen was generous, showing a dignified and noble attitude between her gestures, and asked lightly: "How is the little prince lately?" Every time the emperor comes to the palace, he will praise the little prince for being smart and sensible. ”
Jing Guiren tried his best to remain quiet, holding back the joy in his heart, and the cherry lips were closed one by one: "Thanks to the blessing of the mother, the little prince is safe and healthy, but after all, he is young and ignorant, compared to the second prince of the queen's mother, it is far from the same." ”
The queen's eyebrows were slightly raised, exuding an aristocratic temperament, her watery eyes flashed as if she could see through everything, and she smiled: "The second prince is away all the year round, fighting on the battlefield, and the emperor has high hopes." After all, he is the emperor's concubine, so he always has to work harder. It is impossible to live as easily as the little prince, and the noble people can be by the little prince's side day and night, and the palace is very envious. ”
Without waiting for the Jing nobleman to answer, the servants in the courtyard ran in and said in a panic: "The queen mother is not good!" Aunt Jiang Rong of Chuxiu Palace came to ask to see! Moreover, with a dead show girl! ”
The people present were immediately stunned, as we all know, the show girl had just entered the palace yesterday, and the queen and Concubine Jin also went to teach it in person. Today, how can there be a murder?
The queen suppressed the consternation in her eyes, she was the lord of the six palaces, and she couldn't show her emotions, her jade-like face pretended to be calm and calm, and said sharply: "Bastard thing!" Let them in right away! ”
"Yes."
The servant hurriedly retreated, and the queen turned her face to look at the curious Jing Guiren, it was obvious that she did not intend to leave, and besides, she was still interested in knowing the hidden secret.
A trace of disgust flashed in the queen's eyes, and her tone became cold and harsh: "Jing Guiren, you should step back first, this palace has something to deal with, and you will come to ask for peace another day." ”
Jing Guiren's beautiful face twitched, and he was reluctant to miss this good show, but he couldn't disobey the queen's order, so he had to get up unhappily, and pursed his lips as ruddy as cherries: "Yes, the concubine retires." ”
After leaving Fengyi Palace, the more Jing Guiren thought about it, the more anxious she became, she had to know which show girl died.
So, Jing Guiren led his personal maid and returned to the door of Fengyi Palace, looking for a secluded corner and waiting patiently.
Jiang Rong followed the subordinates to carry Pei Shan's body to the main hall, she knelt down nervously, and said guiltily: "See the queen mother, the slave maid should die, I failed to take care of the show girls in the Chuxiu Palace, please punish the queen mother!" ”
The queen's originally beautiful face was a little sad, and her gestures were all elegant, and she sighed faintly: "Tell me, what's going on?" ”
Jiang Rong hurriedly told the queen the ins and outs of the whole matter, and did not forget to add a few words of exculpation: "Niangniang, the slave maid is true, and she will never dare to deceive." Along the way, the slave maid guessed that Pei Shan was most likely unfamiliar with the path of Chuxiu Palace, and the night was too deep to see clearly, so she stumbled and slipped into the lake, not because she was framed! ”
The queen listened carefully to Jiang Rong's words, her eyes gradually became deeper, her eyebrows were like ink paintings, she pondered for a moment, her gentle cheeks were as gentle as jade, she stretched out her hand to cut her hair lightly, raised her eyes and asked: "You mean, Pei Shan and Tang Anxia had a quarrel yesterday, and as a result, Pei Shan unfortunately fell into the lake and drowned last night?" ”
Jiang Rong nodded: "Yes, Niangniang, according to what the minions said, Pei Shan originally planned to go to the girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion, but Miss Manwen refused to admit that she had seen Pei Shan, and everyone in her dormitory could testify." This matter became clueless, and Tang Anxia also said it conclusively, categorically denying that he had harmed Pei Shan. ”
She didn't admit it...... Did she clear her suspicions? The corners of the queen's mouth curved into a vague arc, and the city that flickered in her eyes was bottomless.
Jiang Rong was stunned for a moment, and secretly glanced at the queen's strategizing appearance, and in an instant, she understood the queen's intentions.
The truth is simply worthless in her eyes.
Jiang Rong hurriedly lowered her head, hid the shocked look on her face, and said in a panic: "The slave is stupid, and he was almost deceived by Tang Anxia. ”
The queen pursed her lips indifferently, her eyebrows and eyes smiled, she liked Jiang Rong's smart appearance, and it was really wise to send her to Chuxiu Palace.
"Come on, send Pei Shan's body back to Du Wei Haozhe's mansion!" The queen said loudly.
Several minions lifted the shelves with their hands and feet and walked out.
The queen's slender fingertips tapped lightly on the table, and the triumphant smile on her lips unconsciously rippled: "Aunt Jiang, you go to the Duwei first, and tell Lord Haozhe the truth of the matter." Then, send Tang Anxia to Fengyi Palace, she relied on the power of the eldest prince, and dared to murder the show girl, and the palace must be severely punished! ”
Jiang Rong half-squatted and stepped back, and replied, "Yes, the slave obeys." ”
When the people in the dormitory left one after another, Yan'er brought the brewed hot tea, blinked her eyes in confusion, and asked suspiciously: "Niangniang, do you really think Tang Anxia is the murderer?" ”
The queen took the tea cup in Yan'er's hand, gently blew open the star leaves floating on the tea, and drank it elegantly, her eyes were faintly shiny and flowing, and her beautiful lips poured out: "Tang Anxia is a member of the General's Mansion, and the eldest prince has a close relationship with General Tang, if they really marry and become close relatives, the power of the eldest prince in the previous dynasty will be even more indestructible." My prince has been out and about all day fighting, and I will clear all obstacles for him before he returns to the court. It is better to kill by mistake than to let go. ”
