Chapter Seventy-Seven: Planting Blame and Brewing Poison • Invite You to Celebrate the Festival

Night.

The night before the Dragon Boat Festival.

Reissen.

In Concubine Li's room, Concubine Li sat at the table.

She was facing the door with her back to the window, and she was waiting for someone.

Waiting for her subordinate phantom to return......

She is full of tricks and is ready to take advantage of tomorrow's Dragon Boat Festival to play.

According to the court etiquette system of the Dahong Empire, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, all princes and ministers must pay tribute to the emperor with their own handmade zongzi.

The emperor may not all eat it, but he will definitely take it and eat it with picks.

If you can take advantage of this gap to let the emperor eat the "poisonous zongzi" paid by Su Wangfu, then Su Wangfu will be in trouble and life and death!

To put it bluntly, this strategy is not clever, it is just stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix, and it is just a simple plan to adjust the contract, so as to plant the blame.

However, everything seems simple, but when it comes to actually doing it, it is often not so simple.

However, there can be regrets in life, there can be unsuccessful, but there can be no regrets, there can be no cowardice, what you want to do, you should work hard to do it, action should always be paid, what if you succeed immediately?

This is an opportunity, and it should not be missed!

"Squeak—"

The black-clothed masked man opened the window and entered the room, he took out a zongzi from his arms, stepped forward and handed it to Concubine Li.

Concubine Li reached out and took the zongzi in the phantom's hand, lowered her head and flipped it to take a closer look.

This zongzi is a small short rectangular shape, as long as a palm, as wide as three fingers, and as thick as a wrist.

The leaves of the dumplings wrapped in this dumpling meat are nine small flat long reed leaves, five wide and short small reed leaves, nine small flat long reed leaves and five wide and short small reed leaves, and the color is divided into upper and lower sections, the upper section is yellow, the lower section is red, these colors are of course artificially painted later, in order to show beauty.

Concubine Li put the zongzi close to the tip of her nose and sniffed, and smiled coldly: "Chicken zongzi." ”

Phantom nodded: "The minions of this dumpling method have managed to find out clearly, and the minions have ordered people to work hard to imitate it, and if they make it in a while, they will definitely be able to get through the test with fake and real, and it is difficult to tell anyone who has a sharp eye." ”

"That's very good." Concubine Li nodded with satisfaction, "But I don't know what this dumpling leaf is nine and five, and what does this yellow and red color mean?" ”

The phantom replied: "The people of King Su's mansion say that King Su means the respect of the Ninth Five, the yellow sky and the earth, and the red luck is the head. ”

A zongzi can also be related to the Ninety-Five Honor?

Except for this King Su who can be so loyal to the emperor, there is no one!

Concubine Li sneered: "I can't see that in the heart of this King Su, he is so much about the emperor, just a zongzi, he can actually make a ninety-five respect, it's really amazing!" ”

The phantom asked: "Niangniang, it's not difficult to make this zongzi, but how should we mix the poisonous zongzi we imitated with the good zongzi of King Su?" After this zongzi King Su was made overnight, it was exquisitely packaged and put away. ”

"Where's the place? A broken rice dumpling! Concubine Li threw the zongzi to the phantom, "It's like a baby!" ”

The phantom took the zongzi, put it in his arms and put it away, and said slowly: "In his study." ”

Concubine Li stared at the phantom and smiled: "What do you think?" How should I adjust the package? ”

"This ......" the phantom didn't know how to answer for a moment.

It's not that he hasn't thought about this problem, it's just that he can't think of a good way to do it.

The only way is to sneak into King Su's mansion tonight, and then go to King Su's study and transfer it.

However, this seems unlikely.

Maybe not at all!

Because, it's a bit like a moth to a fire.

Concubine Li frowned: "If there is a way, there is a way, if there is no way, there is no way, what are you doing?" ”

The phantom lowered his head and said: "The slave is ignorant, please punish the mother!" ”

I thought that Concubine Li would frown because she didn't have a good way to adjust the bag, but she suddenly smiled: "Since you have no way, then forget it, this palace will still come according to your own way." ”

The phantom asked with concern, "What is the plan?" ”

Concubine Li sighed lightly: "You don't have to worry about this, I will be careful in everything, you go down and carefully check your subordinates who make zongzi, the amount of poisoning must be grasped, I don't want to be self-defeating and really poison the emperor to death!" ”

The phantom responded in a deep voice: "Please rest assured, the slave will not dare to make a mistake!" ”

Concubine Li nodded heavily.

The heaven-sent festival Hongmen feast.

Success or failure, in one fell swoop!

………

The bright moonlight illuminates the Yu'an Palace.

Wine and wine, men and women alike.

In the main hall, Princess Qingtian was chatting with Su Zecai.

Su Zecai didn't expect that Princess Qingtian would actually call herself to meet the night before the Dragon Boat Festival, and she would talk and laugh alone with her.

He's a smart guy, and smart people always have their own ideas.

Although he couldn't fathom Princess Qingtian's capricious character, he knew in his heart that she had a special love for him.

He knew that she was just for tomorrow's Dragon Boat Festival.

Princess Qingtian looked at him with a frightened face: "If I don't summon you, don't you plan to come to my Yu'an Palace to tell me about you becoming the new master of the gallery courtyard?" ”

"Nothing!" Su Zecai smiled apologetically, "I've only been in office for less than two days, and I have some things to deal with, so I was too busy, so I couldn't tell the princess earlier." ”

He is telling the truth and a lie.

To tell the truth, he had just taken office for less than 48 hours, and he had not yet become familiar with the relevant matters of the gallery courtyard, and he was indeed very busy, and he could not leave the gallery courtyard for a while.

The lie is that he has no intention of telling Princess Qingtian about this at all, he can become the owner of the gallery, and he once suspected that the driving force behind this matter is Princess Qingtian.

Princess Qingtian looked Su Zecai up and down: "I can't see it, your ability is really not small, I didn't expect that when the master of the Yu Courtyard stepped off the stage, you would be taken by the officials of the Ministry of Rites and appointed as the new owner of the Gallery Academy." ”

Facing Princess Qingtian's praise, Su Zecai smiled indifferently and responded solemnly: "This is all the blessing of the third princess." ”

He can be specially respected by others in the palace, and he can rise to the top, which is of course indispensable to Princess Qingtian's support behind him.

Although this is only a face-saving support.

Princess Qingtian responded unceremoniously: "Of course it's my blessing, my royal painter, who is not polite when you see it?" ”

Su Zecai smiled dryly, with a solemn expression, and did not speak again.

He was waiting for Princess Qingtian to get to business.

Princess Qingtian stared at him, and when she saw that he was solemn and serious, it was inconvenient to laugh with him anymore, so she had to turn to the topic: "Okay, don't laugh, I came to you tonight because I have something to ask you!" ”

Su Zecai was a little surprised: "What do you want to ask me?" ”

Princess Qingtian made a straight face: "Why did you abandon Wei Xinran?" ”

As soon as Princess Qingtian said this, Su Zecai was really surprised.

It has only been less than two days since he broke up with Wei Xinran, and the only people who know about it are himself, Wei Xinran and Liu Yueyin, and the news is close.

Who told Princess Qingtian so quickly?

Could it be that Wei Xinran cried to Princess Qingtian......

Su Zecai took a deep breath and said slowly, "Wei Xinran has already told the princess?" ”

"Nope." Princess Qingtian shook her head, "She hasn't looked for me, but don't forget, I'm the third princess of Qingtian, you are my royal painter, the people around me, your affairs, as long as I want to know, I can find a way to know." ”

Princess Qingtian told the truth, Wei Xinran didn't look for her, she knew the news she knew, and she had her way.

Su Zecai's face was gloomy.

Even so, what can we do now?

I can only listen to what Princess Qingtian said.

Anyway, the wood is already in the boat, the determination is decided, the matter is a foregone conclusion, no matter who persuades each other, he will not look back and regret it.

Princess Qingtian stared at Su Zecai: "You haven't answered my question yet, why did you abandon Wei Xinran?" ”

Su Zecai thought about it and decided to tell Princess Qingtian what she said to Wei Xinran truthfully.

Regardless of whether Wei Xinran complained to Princess Qingtian or not, how he refused to say it before, he should tell others as usual now, which can avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, lest others say that he is duplicitous.

Su Zecai said: "It's me who is sorry for her, it's me who is sweet, I empathize and don't fall in love, I fall in love with Liu Yueyin." ”

Princess Qingtian was shocked by Su Zecai's words, and she looked at Su Zecai in confusion, as if she didn't believe what he said.

She and Su Zecai have not been getting along for a day or two, in her heart, Su Zecai is a decent gentleman, and she is very satisfied and appreciative of Su Zecai's personality.

"Really?" Princess Sweet is to confirm it again.

Su Zecai nodded resolutely: "Yes!" ”

Princess Qingtian's face changed.

She was silent for a long time, and then said softly: "Actually, I don't mean to interfere with your private feelings, it's just that I want to find out what is going on, after all, you are my good friend." ”

Su Zecai said solemnly: "Thank you for your love!" ”

Princess Qingtian said earnestly: "Breaking up is not so simple, it can't be said clearly in one or two sentences, I know that Wei Xinran likes you very much, and you will have a lot of troubles in the future." ”

"I know what to do." Su Zecai didn't seem to be worried at all, "I'll take care of it!" ”

"That's good." Princess Qingtian nodded heavily, "If there is something that requires me to intervene, don't be polite to me." ”

Su Zecai responded: "I understand." ”

Princess Qingtian changed her face and smiled: "Tomorrow's Dragon Boat Festival, my father will set up Yan in the imperial garden, I want to ask you to go with me, but Wei Xinran may also go, if you find it inconvenient......

Before Princess Qingtian finished speaking, Su Zecai said categorically: "There is no inconvenience, the princess is warmly invited, the festival is rare, how can I not go?" ”

His intention is very simple, to be invited by Princess Qingtian to conspire with the emperor and all the high-ranking officials and ministers, this is a symbol of status, such an honor, it can't help but be stained.

Seeing that Su Zecai had nothing to hide, Princess Qingtian smiled with satisfaction.

In her opinion, Su Zecai is acting above board, not afraid of the head and tail, and daring to act.

She couldn't help but have a good impression of Su Zecai in her heart.
