Chapter 310: Bumping into the Two
After Nalan Lan'er instructed, she continued to go with him to see the venue arranged, every time the queen celebrated her birthday, there was more than one place that needed to be arranged, so there were still a lot of things to do.
After taking a casual look, Nalan Lan'er began to go home, and there was still an hour and a half in the afternoon before dinner time, and there was still time to walk around.
Wan'er and Cailian walked slowly on their own side, compared to her calmness, Wan'er was a little anxious, "Niangniang, let's go back and drink medicine earlier!" This sentence was said in an extremely quiet but anxious manner.
Nalan Lan'er glanced at her, pointed to her forehead and comforted, "It's okay." ”
"How can it be nothing! The mother slave watched you drink it with her own eyes! ”
Cailian heard some and whispered in the same voice, "What did you drink?" ”
Wan'er didn't know how to explain to Cailian, but just stared at Nalan Lan'er, "Niangniang." ”
Even if you die one day, I hope I didn't kill you with my own hands.
Nalan Lan'er looked at the maids on the left and right, and suddenly warmed; "Bengong has already taken the antidote before drinking it again, you two can rest assured."
Cai Lian looked at Wan'er in surprise for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up, and Wan'er laughed too, but soon she stopped laughing. Because there is one more that has not been solved, Concubine De!
"Niangniang, Concubine De's temperament is hot, it seems unlikely that something like this is today, it can only be mixed into his daily food, and it will take some time to get through the relationship."
Concubine De? She is really worthy of this name, people with a strong sense of jealousy are easy to control, compared to Concubine Shu's difficulty, Nalan Lan'er also wants to use Concubine De to suppress Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu must be sent into the cold palace as soon as possible, after all, this is really a bit threatening, if Concubine Shu is just a concubine, she can still turn a blind eye, but it is a pity that she is the queen mother's eyeliner, and she made a special trip to deal with her, and it seems a little unreasonable not to start first.
Nalan Lan'er felt a little more at ease, and said with a smile, "This is understandable, Concubine De is not as important as Concubine Shu, so there is no need to be in a hurry, plus the emperor did not stay in the harem last night, that Concubine De has not been pampered yet, there is no hurry, maybe it is a good thing that Concubine De is pregnant." ”
Wan'er and Cailian secretly thought about the meaning, but Nalan Lan'er found that she seemed to be on the wrong path, she shouldn't have scattered the child to Concubine Shu, she should have given Concubine De, so that after Concubine Shu was pregnant, she didn't move for a long time, and her heart was blinded by jealousy.
It's better to start as soon as possible, and you can't turn back after the medicine has already been ordered. Let's think about it again, she hasn't seen where Concubine Shu's jealousy is, it's not easy to handle.
The three of them walked slowly back to the palace, and when they reached a short distance from the palace gate, they saw two concubines standing there around the corner, as if they were discussing something.
Wan'er just wanted to ask out loud who was staying in the corner of Huayan Palace, but was stopped by Nalan Lan'er, who motioned for a few people to go and listen to what the two concubines who were facing away from them had to say.
The three masters and servants came to within five steps of them in some of their lives, and they could hear their voices and did not continue to move forward.
"Are you going or not?"
"Go, but I don't know what to say when I go to my mother. I'm afraid ......"
"What are you afraid of! Mother won't eat you again! ”
"I'm just scared, my sister is waiting."
"What are you waiting for! Concubine De is bullying people like that, didn't the emperor say that you can find the concubine Niangniang if you encounter something? ”
Hearing the conversation between the two concubines, Nalan Lan'er understood. These two concubines were bullied by Concubine De, so they came to her to administer justice? She's really not keen on this kind of thing, but let's see what's going on.
She coughed behind her back and motioned for Wan'er to speak. Wan'er said, "Are you two here to find my mother?" ”
The two concubines, who were still discussing freely, suddenly heard coughing and talking behind them, the two glanced at each other, turned back slowly, and sure enough, the concubine Niangniang was standing behind them and smiling at them.
Shocked, he hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "The concubine sees the concubine Niangniang, the concubine Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an." ”
Nalan Lan'er saw the faces of these two people clearly, one was An Meiren who went to Cining Palace to ask for peace that day, and was instructed by Concubine De to stand behind Yun Ziqing without hesitation. There is also a more cowardly Xu Cairen who almost can't support the rudeness.
These two looks are only average in this harem, because there are too many people with excellent looks in the harem. An Meiren is stronger, Xu Cairen is more cowardly, and obviously half of her cheeks are red and swollen from the beating, which makes Nalan Lan'er frown a little, and Concubine De seems to be a little too much when she just entered the palace.
At this time, both of them were a little apprehensive in their hearts, because they were caught red-handed by chewing their tongues behind their backs, and they should be punished if they were punished.
"Get up." Nalan Lan'er stood outside for a little longer, and at this time she wanted to sit down and rest.
After An Mei and Liu Cairen got up, they immediately gave way to both sides and gave way to Nalan Lan'er to pass.
Nalan Lan'er said as she walked, "Come into the palace and talk in detail, this palace has been walking outside for a long time and is a little tired." ”
"Yes, sissy." The two looked at each other, and they hid in the corner to discuss for so long, but the mother was not in the palace, but she heard it behind her back, this feeling was really embarrassing.
The two followed Nalan Lan'er into the palace in a gloomy manner, Nalan Lan'er took the lead in sitting on the upper seat, Wan'er immediately went to make tea, and Cai Lian waited on Nalan Lan'er's left and right.
Looking at the two concubines who were standing restlessly, Nalan Lan'er smiled and said, "You guys sit down." ”
After they sat down, Nalan Lan'er spoke, "...... just now"
As soon as the words came out, the two concubines who had just sat down immediately bounced off their chairs and jumped off Nalan Lan'er. The movement was like straightening up.
Cai Lian stood closer to her master, she clearly felt Nalan Lan'er's body tremble just now, obviously frightened by this inexplicable move.
Unexpectedly, the two concubines knelt on the ground in unison, and there was no crying, only choking: "Niangniang forgives the sin, the concubine just hasn't been to Huayan Palace, and she didn't dare to go in before discussing it in the corner." Mother forgiveness. ”
The harem secretly stipulates that you can't chew your tongue in the corner of a high-grade wall, according to the rules that have been handed down a long time ago, and the specific reason is not clear.
Some people say that there are many unjust souls in the palace, and the emperor's imperial spirit does not shine as well as the yin harem. It is also said that if you stop in the corner and talk, you will find the master of the palace when you hear something you shouldn't hear.
There are many versions of these false theories, and the corners of the harem palace are not allowed to stop and speak anywhere.
For this reason, Wan'er wanted to shout at them at the beginning, but was stopped by Nalan Lan'er, thinking that her master didn't like ghosts and gods at all, so she gave up. However, Wan'er Cailian still doesn't like these two concubines very much.
Nalan Lan'er was too lazy to speak because she was thirsty, but it was also an eyesore to let them kneel like this, and she said a little tiredly, "Get up, this palace doesn't want anyone to kneel and talk." ”
The two concubines immediately got up, they didn't want to offend the lady with the highest position in the harem.
This time, Nalan Lan'er saw the redness and swelling on Xu Cairen's face again, how strong did it take to swell into an imbalance on both sides like this?
"Xu Cairen, what's wrong with your face?" Nalan Lan'er asked, looking at the five finger prints on her face, which were bright red.
An Meiren had the heart to speak for Xu Cairen, but the concubine didn't let her speak, so she naturally didn't dare to speak, because Concubine De had already taught them a lesson because of this just now.
Xu Cairen's eyes were red, obviously he had cried, and now he was very calm when he answered, "Hui Niangniang, the concubine's face was beaten by Concubine De, because the concubine just came to many places in the palace and didn't know how to go, so she came out for a walk this afternoon, and unfortunately met Concubine De Niangniang on the road, Concubine De Niangniang looked angry, and the concubine hurriedly stepped aside, but I don't know why Concubine De Niangniang stepped forward and slapped the concubine and scolded and left. ”
Nalan Lan'er looked sideways at the tea that Wan'er had just sent, and Xu Cairen also said it was too strange. No matter how bad her temper is, why did Concubine De suddenly hit someone? Even if she Nalan Lan'er wants to punish a subordinate, she has enough reasons to do it.
"Xu Cairen really doesn't know where he offended Concubine De? Let her slap you without saying anything? At the end of the day, she was still a little skeptical.
Xu Cairen seemed to hear the suspicion in Nalan Lan'er's tone, lowered his head and said, "Hui Niangniang, the slave really doesn't know why. ”
An Meiren, who had been holding back, seemed to be almost unable to hold back, and raised her head to speak for Xu Cairen, "Qi Yu Niangniang, the concubine knows why Concubine De Niangniang beat Xu Cairen." ”
"Oh?"
An Meiren said: "The concubine once met Xu Cairen before Concubine De Niangniang, because the concubine had a festival with Concubine Niangniang during the show girl's period, this time I made a special trip to apologize to Concubine Niangniang, but I didn't expect Concubine Niangniang to come, Concubine Niangniang was not in the palace, the palace maid said, she and Niangniang went to the Internal Affairs Office to deal with the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, she was angry and wanted to beat the concubine, the concubine looked wrong, and ran away first. It didn't take long for Concubine De to beat Xu Cairen in the garden. ”
It sounds quite reasonable, because of anger and hurting people, but this palace is not a playhouse, if you kneel in front of me, I can believe what you say.
Nalan Lan'er glanced at this An Meiren casually, with thin lips and sharp eyes, not a good person, but Xu Cairen's facial features were clear and clear, and he looked a little honest.
Now there are other things to deal with, Nalan Lan'er whispered to Wan'er, and Wan'er nodded and went out.
An Meiren stood in place with some trepidation, the concubine Niangniang didn't speak, and they didn't dare to raise their heads more and more.
