Chapter 222: Recognition
Ye Hansi, who had just come down from the court, didn't let people report, and went directly into the Furong Hall to find Chu Yuxi.
She seemed to be embroidering some delicate little object, her eyebrows and eyes were lowered, her expression was focused and gentle, and there was a hint of inexplicable piety, and he quietly approached and circled her from behind.
She was startled, and almost hurt herself with a needle, and when she smelled the reassuring ambergris, she breathed a sigh of relief, and joked coquettishly: "Be careful that the needle has no eyes."
Ye Hansi chuckled, hugged her domineeringly and didn't let go: "What are you doing?"
"Isn't there a lot of things going on in the harem lately? I sent someone to ask, and said that it was useful to worship the Buddha sincerely, so I wanted to make a blessing charm and hand it to the Bodhisattva, so that she could bless the harem sisters with safety. ”
Although Chu Yuxi is from the modern era, these things would rather be believed in ancient times than not existed.
Afraid that the needle would prick people, she resigned herself to losing her needlework, nestled in his arms, seemed to be able to feel his fatigue, she playfully comforted: "Why don't you help me embroider?" In this way, the blessings of the Bodhisattva will be passed on to the sisters through you, and with both the mind and the help of the dragon, this prayer will naturally lead to success. ”
Seeing that she was interested, Ye Hansi picked up the thing that seemed to have only thread and needle for the first time, and said indifferently: "What's so difficult about this?"
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Hansi looked at the ragged embroidery and the needle in his hand, and fell into deep thought.
Chu Yuxi, who watched it, smiled and leaned back, and pretended to be serious and boasted: "Your Majesty is really powerful, sure enough, talented people don't do anything differently, when the concubine was a female worker, her hands were full of blood beads."
Although it is not good to make up facts like this, but looking at his suspicious eyes and frowning serious appearance, Chu Yuxi felt funny and pityful, rubbed his eyebrows, and comforted him.
Who knows, he became strong and played tricks directly, and didn't let her embroider anymore: "This thing is dangerous, be careful."
directly made Chu Yuxi laugh again, she tried to endure it, and the corners of her mouth trembled and trembled, which was very cute.
When the two of them were mixing oil in honey and relaxing for a while, the voice of Jiang Gonggong came from outside.
"Your Majesty, Yao Meiren sent someone to send a message, saying that she wants to find you now."
The two people in the room looked at each other, their nerves tensed again, Chu Yuxi pursed her lips: "You go and take a look, pay attention to safety."
As soon as these words came out, Ye Hansi was a little funny: "What's the matter?" Can she still eat me? ”
Don't laugh at him, Chu Yuxi's face was serious, and his eyes were nervous and serious: "I don't think this matter is simple, the concubines in the harem have had accidents one after another in a short period of time, and I suspect that someone is making trouble in the back." First An Jieyu had a small birth hysteria, then Shen Jieyu drowned and died, and then you discovered the aphrodisiac incense, these things may be inextricably linked. ”
Ye Hansi nodded, similar to what he thought, so he simply didn't say more, said goodbye to her, and went straight to Yao Meiren's palace with Gonggong Jiang.
Because he was fast enough, not long after Yan Jieyu left, he came in, which made Yao Meiren a little unrelieved, but the expression on her face was not rich, but she couldn't see it.
She bowed gracefully, bowed her head, and poured him tea.
s
In Yao Meiren's obscure eyes, mixed with his incomprehensible look, he looked at her with deep meaning: "I heard that you have something to say to me?"
Yao Meiren made another big salute and knelt down: "The concubine has been reflecting for many days and is determined to tell the truth." The aphrodisiac incense was indeed made by me, and it did come from me. ”
This matter was expected by him, the corners of Ye Hansi's mouth hooked, he squinted with satisfaction, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and waited for her to continue. Good web
"After these few days of nightmares, the concubine knew that Shen Jieyu was unwilling to die, and she wanted to ask for her life." Yao Meiren's tone was still flat, but her words gave people goosebumps for no reason.
"What do you mean?" Ye Hansi put down the teacup, stared at her majestically, and asked in a deep voice.
"Shen Jieyu's death is also related to me." Even after saying such shocking words, her expression was still as flat as ever, making it impossible to tell whether it was true or false.
She continued: "An Jieyu has a calm temperament, and she is pregnant with her first dragon son, if she is born, the natural mother is more expensive than the child. The concubine was helpless in the palace, so she wanted her to be her backer. ”
This kind of situation is not uncommon, there are many concubines in the harem, and there are always a few gangs or collusions for self-preservation, touting each other and wanting to be favored together, and they will also frame some people together in order to protect themselves.
There is nothing superfluous to think about in this statement, but what does this have to do with Shen Jieyu? Suddenly, from An Jieyu to Shen Jieyu, what kind of things are in between?
"We don't want people to notice, so we're all in private contact in a veiled way. It's just that Shen Jieyu found out about our collusion and wanted to hypnotize her to make her forget. But before that, she didn't know who instigated her, and replaced the fetal incense given by her concubine to An Jieyu with safflower halfway, and there were quite a few of them. We didn't find out, which eventually led to An Jieyu's miscarriage, and even hysteria was sent to the cold palace. ”
What the?
Is An Jieyu's miscarriage actually such a truth?
No one reported it to him?
What happened to Shen Jieyu's death?
Ye Hansi listened to her words and couldn't help but think about it, was Shen Jieyu found out so she was killed?
Sure enough, Yao Meiren continued: "Naturally, although An Jieyu is suffering from hysteria, the people available to her are still there, and they also have heartfelt protectors who want to take revenge, so she relied on her concubines to find out Shen Jieyu. The concubine was in a hurry and designed her to drown. ”
Dragon fetus, say miscarriage is miscarriage?
A human life, say design is design?
Such a prosaic behavior that does not put human life in his eyes, behind the impermanence of human life and death, no one thought that it would be such an ugly and appalling truth, how could he not have imagined that it was a common thing in the harem?
"Shen Jieyu assassinated the dragon fetus, why didn't anyone report such a thing to me? You actually settled it privately?" Ye Hansi slapped the table and stood up, looking at Yao Meiren who was obviously shrinking on the ground, full of anger.
However, he had just come out of Chu Yuxi's Furong Palace, and he remembered that she actually foolishly thought that the sisters of the harem needed the blessing of the Bodhisattva.
With such a femme fatale, why do you need God's protection?
but it defiles the wisdom of the bodhisattva.
This kind of cognition made Ye Hansi full of sadness and disappointment, sneered, and his eyes were so angry that he knew well: "It turns out that I govern the country every day, but I don't even manage family affairs well?"
However, Yao Meiren continued endlessly: "Shen Jieyu is water-sensitive, so the concubine also gave her Gu, so if she drowns to death, she will be tortured to death by Gu poison, so that she will never suffer in the future."
Ye Hansi's face was gloomy as soon as he slapped the table, and his handsome face was full of momentum that was about to come, oppressing Yao Meiren and finally calming down.
"I don't want to hurt anyone, just interested?" He repeated what Yao Meiren had told him, looking cold and shocked.
