Chapter 51: Deliberate Collision
"Flow!"
In the pouring rain, the morning mist scattered within the vermilion palace walls.
Gardenia saw Shang Kelan looking at the carriage where the master was going, so he called out loudly: "Niangniang? Empress? ”
Shang Kelan came back to her senses and smiled at Gardenia: "Okay, let's go back." ”
Gardenia stretched out the umbrella to cover the master and servant, and sighed: "Actually, the slave maid thinks that what the master said just now is quite right, the mother is sometimes too soft-hearted, so for Na Cui'er, and the same is true for Imperial Doctor Li." ”
Shang Kelan shook her head and walked on the wet floor tiles.
Gardenia didn't talk anymore, just quietly followed her side.
Suddenly, a palace maid came out in front, and the palace maid was drenched in heavy rain, as if she couldn't see the road clearly, and bumped into Shang Kelan!
"Plop!"
The slamming slam made Shang Kelan's body unstable, and she staggered back a few steps before she could barely stand still.
Fortunately, Gardenia was attentive, and after quickly helping Shang Kelan to stand up, he angrily grabbed the palace maid and said, "Bold! Dare to collide with Concubine Chen?! ”
The palace maid's face was pale, and a pair of wet eyes looked at Gardenia in fear and said, "The slave knows the mistake, the slave knows the mistake!" Ask the mother to spare the slave's life! The slave maid didn't mean it, it was foggy, and the slave maid came out of the corner and hurried to deliver medicine to Rou Jieyu of Qinglanxuan......"
Rou Jieyu?
After thinking about it, Shang Kelan's mind conjured up a skinny woman in white.
When she first entered the palace as an imperial concubine, when the concubines came to visit her, she had a relationship with Na Roujieyu.
It's just that Rou Jieyu's sense of existence is very low, and she doesn't like to talk, so she didn't leave much impression on Shang Kelan.
Seeing that there was really a packet of medicine sprinkled on the ground, Shang Kelan asked the palace maid, "What's wrong with Rou Jieyu?" What happened? ”
The palace maid knelt on the ground, bowed her head and said in fear: "Rou Jieyu has been in poor health, and she has been coughing badly since last night, so the slave maid went to the imperial dining room to spend some silver, and specially asked for this pack of cough medicine, collided with Niangniang, and asked Niangniang to condemn!" ”
Gardenia stared at her angrily: "This fog is not big, how can you not even see our two big living people?" ”
The palace maid seemed to be frightened by the gardenia, trembling like sifting chaff, but she couldn't say a word for a long time.
Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and she said softly: "Okay, go back to see your mother, don't delay Rou Jieyu's illness." ”
Seeing that Shang Kelan did not punish her, the palace maid kowtowed a few times in gratitude, and said: "Thank you Niangniang, Concubine Chen, you will definitely be able to live a long life, and the slave will retire!" ”
As she spoke, the palace maid hurriedly grabbed the medicine bag on the ground and ran back.
Shang Kelan glanced at the figure of the palace maid leaving, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes: Qinglanxuan and Tai Hospital were originally far apart, and this place was close to the palace gate, so why did the palace maid take a long detour to go back?
In any case, the appearance of this palace maid is too coincidental!
The corners of Shang Kelan's lips were slightly raised, and her eyes became deeper and deeper.
After the master and servant returned to the Xianya Palace, Late Winter hurriedly came over with a dry handkerchief to wipe Shang Kelan's hair, and Zhiqiu took another set of clothes for her to change into.
After Xiaoxia served breakfast, she looked at the two of them suspiciously and said, "Niangniang, Sister Gardenia, where did you go early in the morning?" ”
When the palace maid bumped into her just now, Gardenia blocked it for Shang Kelan, and now her waist still hurts.
When she mentioned this, she said angrily: "It's really unlucky, my mother and I are walking on the road, so wide, a palace maid who is not long-eyed rushed over, and my waist is going to be knocked apart by her!" ”
As she spoke, Gardenia grinned and rubbed her waist.
Shang Kelan took a sip of hot tea lightly, then looked at her with a smile and said, "Don't worry about that palace maid, let's go down and rest later!" ”
"Oops!" Suddenly, Late Winter, who was tidying up Shang Kelan's change of clothes, screamed, only to hear her say in surprise: "Niangniang's jade pendant is gone!"
was drinking tea, and suddenly heard the late winter say this, Shang Kelan made a move and turned her head to look at the pile of clothes.
saw that the jade pendant that was originally tied to the pale pink pleated skirt disappeared at some point.
In an instant, when the rain was pouring down, the hurried figure of the palace maid came to her mind......
Gardenia is not stupid, she reacted immediately, and then, she looked at Shang Kelan even more worriedly: "Niangniang......"
Shang Kelan raised her hand and whispered to Gardenia: "There is no need to panic about this matter, go to the Internal Affairs Office to report the lost jade pendant and make a record, in addition, this matter is not allowed to be made silent this morning, do you understand?" ”
Gardenia was puzzled: "Niangniang, why don't you go to the palace maid and ask for clarification?" ”
Shang Kelan put down the teacup in her hand, turned to look at her and said, "This harem is also like a vast sea of people, if that person has the heart to disappear with my jade pendant, where should you look for it?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly froze.
Gardenia looked unwilling, but helpless.
After listening to the words of the two on the side, Zhiqiu couldn't help frowning, and said, "Niangniang, this is someone who sincerely wants to set you up." ”
Shang Kelan nodded and said in agreement: "Indeed, in this palace, the people who envy me and envy me don't know how to go, and the one who has an enmity with me is Concubine Ning." Perhaps, there will be another Hua concubine......"
As she spoke, Shang Kelan's voice gradually sank, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became deeper.
Late Winter and Zhiqiu glanced at each other, wondering if Shang Kelan had any plans in her heart.
At this time, inside the Lanyue Palace.
The vermilion palace door was closed, and a drenched palace maid came to the door, and after knocking three times, the people inside opened the door and let her in.
After skillfully entering a side room, the palace maid knelt down respectfully, presented a jade pendant to the person standing in front of her, and said: "Aunt Luxiang, this is Concubine Chen's personal belongings, and the slave maid has taken it back!" ”
Lu Xiang took this jade jade pendant from her hand, looked at it carefully, and said with satisfaction: "Well, if it's really Concubine Chen's jade pendant, you did a good job this time, this silver reward you!" ”
As he spoke, Lu Xiang threw down two ingots of silver in front of the palace maid.
The palace maid's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly took the silver and kowtowed to Lu Xiang and thanked her: "Slave and maid, thank you Aunt Lu Xiang!" Thank you, Aunt Luxiang! ”
Lu Xiang glanced at her impatiently, waved his hand and said: "Okay, take this thing and bury it in Concubine Chen's yard, after it is done, I will naturally send the imperial doctor to treat Rou Jieyu, if you dare to say this, don't blame Concubine Ning for being ruthless to you and Rou Jieyu!" ”
The palace maid was frightened, and the silver in her hand was almost unstable.
Immediately, she lowered her head, suppressed the fear in her heart and said: "As long as Concubine Ning is willing to save Rou Jieyu, the slave and maid will go to the soup and fire, and they will not give up!" ”
Seeing that he held Rou Jieyu's master and servant in his hands so easily, Lu Xiang didn't say much, but took out a puppet full of silver needles from his arms and gave it to her.
I saw Lu Xiang said expressionlessly: "Take the things, don't let anyone see them, otherwise the matter will leak out, and you know the consequences I just said." ”
The palace maid was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took the puppet and asked, "What is this?" ”
The corners of Lu Xiang's mouth hooked: "Witch Gu doll." ”
