After five watches, the sky was bright. The wind outside the house was still blowing, and Jing Huai stayed in the concubine's house last night, which saved An's work to serve this morning. As he got old, he didn't sleep much, and he was worried about Jing Hui's situation in the palace, so as soon as the drum sounded on the city tower, An opened his eyes.

Someone was shaking outside the door, and it was clear who was pacing outside. Seeing that his appearance was not very tall, and his body looked like a woman, An Shi asked, "But Cuiping is outside?" Cuiping is her personal maid, probably guessing the time to serve herself to freshen up.

The black figure hesitated for a moment, then spoke: "Mother, it's me Jingzi." ”

An Shi was still wondering why this girl was waiting outside her door early, and then she thought about it, today is the sixteenth, the day when the embroidery room opens. Sighing, her mind had already guessed seven or eight points. Worried about the wind and cold outside the door, he beckoned her to come in first.

Sure enough, Jingzi lifted her skirt and knelt down to say that she was entering the palace. An smacked his lips in embarrassment, and thought for a long time before saying, "My son, aren't you embarrassed by your mother?" Your father's stubborn temper, if he knew that I had brought you into the palace, and still wouldn't break my legs? ”

"Isn't my sister sick? You just say that you can enter the palace to see your sister, and then you go to Qifeng Palace, and your daughter can go to the embroidery room alone. ”

The idea had been thought of a long time ago, she just wanted to see the wedding dress, it seemed that it was the only thing she looked forward to. She is also clear about An's difficulties, Jing Huai has always had the final say in the family, and now that this ugly thing has happened, Jing Huai, who has always paid attention to reputation, pays more attention to every move of the female relatives in the family.

Seeing that An's was still embarrassed, Jingzi took her arm and said: "Since I was a child, my mother has treated me and my sister the same, you cherish your daughter, so help your daughter make this wish." When the words reached the sad place, he sobbed in a low voice: "Cui Qian has died, what hope can my daughter have, Zuo is just a thought." ”

However, An had no choice but to comply, and instructed: "When you come back, your father asks, don't say that you leaked your mouth." ”

How to serve Ann's grooming, I will not repeat it here. only said that as soon as they entered the palace, the mother and daughter rushed to Qifeng Palace first. Speaking of which, this is the time when all palaces and bureaus come to ask for peace, how can Qifeng Palace be so deserted?

The mother and daughter glanced at each other, and both noticed something unusual, and felt more and more ominous in their hearts. The first thing Ann considered was whether Jing Jie's incident affected Jing Hui? But there is still the queen mother in the palace, but I am afraid that I will not sit idly by. Moreover, when the old man came back, he vaguely said something about the idea of Jing Ji from afar, but I am afraid that Jing Ji will bear it alone.

"But my sister is unwell, and the emperor is distressed, so I am exempted from asking for peace in the morning?"

In front of him was the mama who was leading the way, Jingzi didn't dare to speak loudly, but just muttered a few words to An's family. glanced sideways at Jingzi, and secretly said in his heart that it was not so simple. What does Ji Hongduo look like, will she still be unclear? It will not be avoided to ask for peace early, but it will only be changed to someone else's palace, and now Jing Hui is only afraid of losing power, which is annoyed.

At this time, I realized that this time I came abruptly, don't make jokes in the palace, and only after I go back will there be noise. simply took two steps and asked the leading grandmother modestly: "I don't know why Qifeng Palace is so quiet today?" ”

"It's been like this these days, the queen's body is not happy, and the affairs of the palace are represented by Mrs. Xian." What kind of character this grandmother is, how could she not know the identity of An's family, so she said with relief: "It is also a matter of the past few days, the slave maid looks at the queen's mother's health, and after a while, she is busy again." ”

An Shi nodded his head again and again in thanks, and after a while, he entered the Qifeng Palace.

Jing Hui saw her mother and sister, and her face was stunned: "You have no rules for your life, and you don't hand over the post first when you enter the palace, if you let those gossips know, you don't know what to arrange in the palace?" ”

But the people are already standing in front of them, is it possible for Jing Wei to drive them out? The three of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere dropped to freezing point for a while. The outside of the main hall has been prepared, and Jing Hui got up early with the intention of going to the Queen Mother's palace to ask for peace, but now she can't.

Seeing her daughter's embarrassment, An smiled slightly: "Niangniang is only busy with herself, and when she sees that Niangniang's body is safe, this hanging heart can be regarded as falling." Let's go to the embroidery room first, and then we'll go back to the house in a while. ”

It's okay not to mention the wedding dress, but it's a knot in Jinghui's heart when it is mentioned. Anyway, there were no outsiders, so he glanced at Jingzi, but it was not easy to count the guilt on her head, so he only said to his mother: "You and your father are too, don't say that you have to be a dragon and phoenix among people to choose a son-in-law, but you can't find the Cui family. ”

Although Jingzi was silent, her face had already changed greatly, and she pulled the sleeve of La An's coat, which meant urging her to go. An Shi felt that his heart was suddenly happy, and he didn't dare to say anything in Su Rili, and he said it all through Jing Hui's mouth. Why don't you want to go, and listen. is ashamed of Jingzi, and also lets her see how difficult it is for Jingfu to be a person now.

"The two of you go to see the wedding dress alone, I'm afraid it's going to make a joke," Jing Hui said and put another Hetian hosta hairpin on her head, and said angrily, "This palace will accompany you, and outsiders won't dare to chew the root of their tongues." ”

was reprimanded, as if he owed a lot of favors, Jingzi always followed behind them with her head down. It's just that if you can see each other today, you can count it as a long-cherished wish for many days.

Such a big event happened in the embroidery room, and Mrs. Xian's assistant harem had to come forward. But what everyone didn't expect was that the queen would also happen to come at this time.

The situation was still chaotic, Liu Wan insisted that she had not stepped into the embroidery room for half a step, and the others were not suspicious. Mrs. Xian naturally believed that Liu Wan would not lie, but how to excuse her without evidence.

Wang Siyi is in charge of all the affairs of the embroidery room, and now that such a thing has happened, she can't ignore it, saying that she is helping Mrs. Xian investigate the matter thoroughly, but in fact, she is just pouring sewage on Liu Wan little by little.

"Originally, there was no her when she was set to embroider the girl, Fu Wanxin insisted on Liu Wan to join, and got the approval of Jingfu, it was really difficult for the lower officials. had to break the rules and let Liu Wan come in. Looking back now, Liu Wan was not there in the two selections, and she appeared in the list when she was making a wedding dress, could it be that she wanted to destroy this wedding dress for a long time? ”

"Wang Siyi, the truth is not what you said, Liu Wan is not here because of ......"

Seeing that Fu Wanxin was about to be reckless again, Liu Wan hurriedly grabbed her, and she quickly changed her words: "The first time, it was because Wang Ziying deliberately caused trouble next to the well platform and poured cold water on her. If you miss the first time, you naturally don't know how to select the second time. If you really want to say that someone has a ghost in their heart, it must be Wang Ziying. ”

This Fu Wanxin is sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed on weekdays, but fortunately her brain turned quickly, and in an instant, Wang Ziying became the focus of everyone's attention again.

"Who is Wang Ziying?"

Mrs. Xian glanced at the embroidery lady kneeling on the ground and asked.

"It's a slave ......"

Wang Ziying didn't expect that this matter would be pulled on her head in such a way, but she didn't dare not answer Mrs. Xian's question. Mrs. Xian looked at Wang Ziying, who knelt out, but she looked delicate, but she didn't want to do what she said.

"Is what you said true?"

Mrs. Xian interrogated about the events of that morning, Wang Ziying didn't know how to answer, and secretly looked at Wang Siyi. This frequent eye contact attracted Mrs. Xian's attention, and she asked, "Wang Siyi, is this embroidery girl familiar with you?" ”

Wang Siyi's body trembled, and he said in a low voice: "It's the niece of Xia Guan." There was always a sense of weakness in the words, in order to make things continue, Mrs. Xian opened her mouth to play a round: "This is not unusual, but she splashed the cold well water on Liu Wan, I don't know if it is because of your support?" ”

"Where is this reasonable, Ziying will not splash cold water on her for no reason? There must be some kind of contradiction. ”

A few words drew Mrs. Xian's gaze to Liu Wan, her eyes stared at Liu Wan, and her lips opened slightly: "Liu Wan, but you provoked Wang Ziying?" ”

Liu Wan looked calm, recalling the events of that morning, and felt that it came suddenly.

"The slave maid and her are new acquaintances, and if there is a knot, it is because it is inconvenient to take the princess to stay, and she wants to exchange them so she has a few words of conflict with Wang Siyi. Now that I think about it, Wang Siyi is not good at dealing with slaves and maids, and it is not impossible for Ziying to stand up for her. Liu Wan saw Wang Siyi's body leaning forward slightly, and knew that she was going to quibble again, so she changed the subject: "However, the slave maid thinks that the most important thing in this matter is to find out that the wedding dress is dirty, and these small knots are not worth the effort of the mother." ”

Wang Siyi's mouth was gagged firmly, and he turned his head to look at Liu Wan angrily, but saw Liu Wan say thoughtfully: "The slave maid thought about it carefully just now, in fact, the key to the embroidery room is really not only for slaves and maids. The keys to each of the Shanggong Bureau are prepared in the main room, and the adults in the bureau can access these keys. In this way, there are many suspects. ”

Seeing that things were developing in favor of Liu Wan, the sudden arrival of the queen disrupted the little clues that were finally sorted out.

"It's obviously a quibble, what reason does the lord in the bureau have to do such a thing? But you can't be restless wherever you go, who knows what tricks you're playing? ”

When everyone heard this, they turned around and saluted: "The queen mother is a thousand years old!" ”

Su Yusheng also got up to greet him and carried Jing Wei to the main seat.
