Chapter Seventy-One: Crimes Deserve Their Consequences

The concubines who watched the play around couldn't help but whisper, some were joking, some were ridiculing, some were contemptuous, and some were pity. "It's a big mind." "It's just, it's shameless." "Look at her like that, you know it's not going to be a peaceful master." "It's a shame to dare to be disrespectful to the queen." …… All kinds of ugly words continued to fill Yun Yuya's ears.

"Perhaps, maybe it was the carelessness of the palace bureau and mistakenly made the five-tailed golden hairpin into a seven-tailed one." Yun Yuya was anxious to say as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, although she had no clue about this matter.

"The palace bureau has always been cautious, and before the golden hairpin is sent to each palace, a special person will be responsible for reviewing it again, how can such a low-level mistake be made. Besides, this matter is a common practice every year, and there has never been anything wrong before, what? This year, it's your turn to Yun Yunu, and something happened to happen? Yumo said coldly.

Yun Yuya felt all kinds of stares cast by the people around her, like needles in her back, stabbing her all over her body. She only felt that she was about to suffocate, and a drop of cold sweat flowed down her sideburns uncontrollably, "That is, someone wants to frame the concubine." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, a mocking voice came from the side, "Hehe, framing you? Who would have the leisure to frame you, an unfavored concubine, isn't it a space to eat? Song Meiren covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, as if she had heard some funny joke.

Yun Yuya was resentful in her heart, but she also knew that this reason was untenable, and it was indeed unconvincing. At this moment, she can't care about having a verbal dispute with others, and getting herself out of trouble is the most important thing in front of her. "That must be a slave who is not well kept, Niangniang, please give the concubine a little time, the concubine must be ......"

"Enough!" The queen's face was full of anger, and she directly interrupted Yun Yuya's words in a cold voice. What she has always hated the most is that someone doesn't take her in her eyes, covets her queen's position, and challenges her authority, her sharp phoenix eyes are horizontal, she looks at Yun Yuya and says, "This palace doesn't want to listen to your quibbles anymore!" But because it's the New Year, this palace doesn't want to punish too much. The Yun family, from now on, was reduced to a woman, confined to the Mofeng Palace, and copied the women's training, women's commandments, and women's rules for each palace. After that, the palace will send someone to the emperor. At the beginning of the new year, such a thing happened, and the queen's good mood was all disturbed, she left everyone behind, and took Yumo's hand into the side hall to rest.

"Niangniang, the golden hairpin ...... just now" Yumo supported the queen, and stopped talking.

The queen glanced at her and sneered, "Do you want to say that there is a problem with that golden hairpin?" After staying in this palace for so many years, how could they not know the means by which they fought in private? ”

Yumo carefully helped the queen to sit down, and then asked, "Since you know everything, why do you still punish the Yun family?" ”

"Yun's own skills are not as good as others, so it's no wonder. Since someone has set up such a bureau, why don't we make good use of it? Push the boat down the river and get rid of a henchman of Concubine Yanshu, why not? The queen took a sip of jasmine tea, and instantly felt the fragrance of her mouth, and her body and mind became comfortable.

"What's new in the Chonghua Palace recently?" The queen asked.

"As far as the slave knows, there is nothing wrong with it. Since the last time, the Cao family has been staying in the Xinxue Palace in peace, and the emperor has never set foot in the Yusheng Palace for a while, presumably Concubine Yan Shu is depressed because of this. Yumo replied, with a bit of amusement between the words.

The smile on the queen's face was two more points, "That Liu Yuanzhi has some ability, recruit her in two days, the emperor's birthday is approaching, and the palace looks like it's time to mention her." ”

Yumo was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but be a little worried, "Niangniang, are you exalting her too much, the slave is afraid that it will be difficult to control it in the long run." ”

The queen smiled disapprerovingly, "This sharp blade is still in her hands now, if she has any thoughts that she shouldn't have in the future, this palace will break her." ”

Out of Fengluan Palace, Liu Yuanzhi did not pass the sedan chair, but walked with Ruan Mingting and Qu Zhixu. When everything happened, the three of them were silently watching from behind the crowd on the side, and they didn't say anything. Because all of this was designed by them.

On that day, Ruan Mingting used a trick to stop the attendant who was ordered to give a reward, and took the opportunity to drop the box and replace the golden hairpin that Han Yue had done beforehand. This morning, Yun Yuya took out the hairpin and put it on the bun, because the tail of the kingfisher fell with fine garnets, coupled with the vibration and swaying when walking, the two small openings that were originally too small to be easily detected were cracked along the lines, so the five tails became seven tails.

"I didn't expect that the love of the past ended up in such a field after all." Liu Yuanzhi muttered.

"She deserves it." Qu Zhixu sighed, her tone was mixed with a little sentimentality, she didn't expect that Yun Yuya, who was in love with sisters in the past, would take refuge in Concubine Yan Shu behind their backs.

Ruan Mingting, who has a clear distinction between love and hate, is more open than Liu and Qu, "She harmed others for her own selfish desires, and we just gave her the fight she deserved." If anyone does not offend me, I will not offend, but if anyone offends me, I will offend, and there is nothing wrong with that. ”

Han Yue and Zi Mo walked side by side behind Liu Yuanzhi, she looked at the road ahead, and she couldn't help but feel a little bitter in her heart. In the past, she was the most shameful of such scheming methods, but now that she is in the deep palace, she seems to be able to do these things easily. Hanyue didn't know if such a change would be good or bad for her. All day long in the palace full of shackles and thorns, halfway through, only to find that all I found was a vague mask and a point of no return.

About ten days later, it was the Shangyuan Festival. In Dayue, when the Shangyuan Festival has passed, then the year will really be over.

On the evening of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the emperor had already held a grand banquet in the Penglai Palace, and the imperial relatives and nobles and foreign ministers and wives were invited to the palace banquet. Now this Shangyuan Festival is no longer a teacher, but a family banquet was held in Wen Yixuan, except for the emperor and queen and the queen mother, there are only a few princes and family members, a few high-ranking concubines, and some low-ranking concubines who are quite favored to attend.

Because it was a family banquet, it was not so exquisite, everyone raised their glasses and said some auspicious words to the emperor, the queen and the queen mother, and then the banquet began.

"Lord Wang, you try this fragrant venison patty, the concubine thinks it is quite delicious when she eats it." Su Yuyan said, and put a small piece of venison patty for Nangong Jing and put it in the blue ground flower eight-sided bowl in front of him.

"Don't clamp it for me, you take care of yourself first." Nangong Jing said, but this tone was not as gentle and pampered as before, and seemed to be a little resistant.

This Zhu Qiaorong also scalded a piece of mutton for Nangong Heng, "Lord Wang, you first eat a piece of hot mutton shabu to cushion your stomach." In winter, it is best to eat this warm and blood-replenishing mutton, a few pieces of belly, this body immediately feels warm, and the whole body is comfortable. ”

"Hmm." Nangong Heng replied lightly without saying too much. Although he was sitting here, his eyes would always drift to the cold moon standing opposite, intentionally or unintentionally.

In this snowy midwinter season, the hot pot is the most popular. Those dried fruits, pickles, appetizers, dumplings and the like are all prepared in advance, even if they are hotly fried, they will become cold after a long time on the table. But the warm pot is different, the hot charcoal fire has been burning, a mouthful of hot food, and a mouthful of hot soup, the whole person is wrapped in a melting warmth. Everyone present in the hall ate the hot pot one after another, shabu all kinds of vegetables and meat.

Hanyue didn't like to eat mutton since she was a child, because the smell of mutton was really unbearable. Although the mutton eaten in this palace is the best in the world, it still has an obvious smell for the cold moon who never eats mutton, and the smell is not ventilated in this palace, so the smell is getting stronger and stronger. Standing behind Liu Yuanzhi, Han Yue frowned almost invisibly, and the smell made her involuntarily hold her breath.

Han Yue's subtle expression happened to fall in the eyes of Nangong Heng on the other side, he looked at Zhu Qiaorong, who was constantly eating mutton beside him, and said, "If you eat too much mutton, don't eat it anymore." ”

Nangong Heng originally just wanted to find an excuse to cut off Zhu Qiaorong's idea of eating mutton, but unexpectedly, when he heard this, it turned into Nangong Heng caring about Zhu Qiaorong. "I didn't expect King Cheng to be so considerate, it seems that King Cheng and the princess are really very affectionate." Li Chongrong teased.

After Zhu Qiaorong listened to Li Chongrong's words, she also felt that Nangong Heng meant this, her eyes were affectionate, her face was shy, and she said "um" to Nangong Heng gently, and then obediently ate the shrimp roe and bamboo shoot slices on the side.

The scene in front of her fell into the eyes of the Queen Mother, her face was kind and kind, and her smile was full of relief, "Hehehehe, the emperor and queen, look at it, the relationship between these two young couples is as good as honey." The mourning family is old, and what I want to see most now is that my children and grandchildren can be harmonious and beautiful. Hearing this, the emperor smiled and nodded towards the Queen Mother.

"It's a pity that King Zhuang couldn't come to this reunion dinner." There was some regret in the Queen Mother's words, "The first emperor's heirs are thin, except for Duanjia and Minyi, who were married far away, and now only the emperor and King Zhuang are left." ”

"Now that the west is unstable, King Zhuang is guarding the frontier for me, and he is also lacking in skills. If the queen mother really misses the emperor's brother, when the border is more stable in the future, I will call him back. The Emperor said. When the queen heard this, her hand holding the chopsticks tightened unconsciously, and then she slowly put down the chopsticks, picked up the wine glass on the table and took two sips.
