Chapter 16: Palace Change (1)
Today, for some reason, it rained a little in the morning, and the bamboo chair was wet, Sisi commanded Ju to move the bamboo chair under the corridor, and Wudou didn't know where to jump out and rushed to move.
Sisi reasonably suspects that Wudou has nothing to do all day long, and he is secretly observing his agarwood zhai.
In the morning, news came from the palace, saying that Chuanxi and the princess and the lord of Chang'an had entered the palace to meet him.
Sisi was secretly refreshed, the fourth prince was there, and he was still blessed by him, so he found an opportunity to invite him to a meal another day, and then asked her if she had a concubine, and gave him two sets of high-end bras to express his affection.
Hahaha, imagining that the smiling face that has always been unchanged for thousands of years cracked a crack when he saw the bra, Sisi laughed out loud just by making up for it.
Teacher Feng went home to see her husband these days, and always said that she didn't see her for a day as if she was every three autumns, and she would have to go back every ten days and a half days.
Sisi also took her to make a fortune, every time she came back, she picked some fresh melons and fruits for Sisi, Sisi ate well, so she poured in the well water to Agarwood Zhai and Xihe Courtyard to divide the points, except for Sisi eating stomach trouble, others eat well, Sisi is very angry, why! Why do you have to have diarrhea by yourself!
Horse-drawn carriages run along the Tsuten Street of Kyoto Castle, a boxy city with a thoten street in the middle, which connects the Imperial Palace with the North Castle Entrance at both ends, and then extends from the back of the Imperial Palace to the South Castle Entrance.
The princess's mansion is not far from the imperial city, in fact, at the beginning, His Majesty wanted to allocate a courtyard for Xihe near the imperial city. Ke Xihe disagreed, the current courtyard was bought by Xi and himself with his own private money and the general's Yulu in Kyoto.
Xihe has always intended to break away from the royal family, but now His Majesty has been dragging it out, summoning him from time to time, and the ghost will not go away.
Based on her previous experience of reading Gong Dou novels, Sisi knows that today is a big drama.
The rain had passed, but it had not sunny, and the air was mixed with the smell of wet earth, which smelled exceptionally fresh.
Sisi walked behind Xi He, and both of them were silent.
Today's home field is in His Majesty's Dragon Sleeping Palace, as soon as he entered the door, Sisi felt the serious atmosphere in the hall, several princes and concubines were sitting in danger, and His Royal Highness kneeling was Lord Xiao Xiao, who was captured by a surprise attack yesterday, and a man he didn't know, and he looked like a eunuch with cold eyes, and it was estimated that he was the person in the imperial dining room in the mouth of the four princes.
Sisi quickly glanced at everyone, the six princes looked better, but their faces were still very white, and Concubine Xiao Shu's face was even whiter, looking at His Royal Highness's kneeling nephew, at a loss.
Concubine Chun looked confident, drinking tea calmly, and several princes and princesses also closed their mouths, only keeping their eyes to look.
Sisi also looked at it, and the eyes of Leng Buding and the fifth princess met, and both of them were startled and lowered their heads.
After the ceremony, the show has just begun.
The four princes stood up like an emperor and arched his hands:
"Father, the son has been a little busy these days, neglecting to ask his father for peace, and asking his father to atone for his sins, but the son has not been busy in vain for a few days, and he actually caught a mouse and wanted to kill the royal family, Xiao Qi, can you confess?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the minister is wronged, the minister is wronged." Xiao Qi is a gentleman, who has never seen this battle, he is afraid that he will pee his pants if he says a few more words.
The emperor did not speak, and gestured to the four princes with his eyes.
"Lord Xiao has won the trust of His Majesty over the years, Lord Xiao has also been prosperous over the years, and Concubine Niangniang has won the favor of His Majesty, why can't you think about it, let go of the good future, go. . . Go.. Alas... The four princes looked quite contrived, Sisi saw it in his eyes, and then secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, the four princes looked obviously black-bellied, and they wanted to make this one, Sisi felt that his stomach was churning twice.
"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen really didn't."
Xiao Qi knelt on the ground and trembled.
"It seems that Lord Xiao Xiao doesn't cry when he sees the coffin." The fourth prince really put away his sad expression, and his words changed: "Xiao Shunzi, you say." ”
The fourth prince kicked the eunuch who was kneeling on the side with his foot, and the eunuch shrank for a moment, opened his mouth, his teeth chattered, and he didn't say anything.
"Don't worry, boldly, will anyone dare to threaten you in front of His Majesty?"
The kneeling eunuch glanced up at the four princes, his lips twitched twice, and he kowtowed three times as if he had made up his mind.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minion, the slave is the small of the imperial dining room. Xiao Shunzi, that day... It's Lord Xiao. Wang Yang, who is next to Lord Xiao, came to look for a slave... He said that if he would help him do this... Bao slave is only half a life of glory. Minion.. The minion ghost is obsessed... Your Majesty, please condemn you. ”
After he finished speaking intermittently, he secretly raised his eyes and glanced at the four princes, and then knocked his head to the sky.
"That day, Wang Yang also promised Xiao Shunzi, saying that after the matter was completed, he would use the relationship of Concubine Shu Niangniang to let him be promoted to the head of the imperial dining room, dare to ask Lord Xiao, yes or no?"
The fourth prince snapped, closed the folding fan in his hand, and Xiao Qi, who was lying on the ground in fright, shrank again.
Concubine Xiao Shufei sat on the stool, her hand clutching the bruise on the corner of the table, she pursed her lips and didn't say anything, she also knew that it was too early to say anything.
Xiao Qi didn't reply, and everyone in the hall didn't make a sound, Xiao Shufei's blood-red eyes were in stark contrast to the pure concubine's eyes like watching a show.
Concubine Chun seized all the time to suppress Concubine Xiao Shu, and today is no exception. Such an opportunity for her to see the jokes, and the joy is not hidden, I am afraid that I can't hide it.
The emperor didn't reply before, he took a sip of tea, took a sip, the tea was a little cold, and Gonggong Hong immediately took a look and took it down for a new cup of tea.
"Chuan Wang Yang!"
When Wang Yang entered the hall, Sisi saw it clearly, and Xiao Qi gave him a look. He bowed his head and knelt in front of the temple.
"See Your Majesty for the little ones, Your Majesty will live a long life."
"Wang Yang, this little shunzi said that you went to find him that day and plotted to poison him, can you confess?" The fourth prince didn't seem to expect Wang Yang to suddenly appear in the palace, and he arrested him for many days, and there has been no news, but he didn't expect that he would appear by himself today.
"Back to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, the small confession, but all this is at the behest of the lady, and the little one is just following orders"
Concubine Xiao Shu was shocked when she heard this: "Who are you to dare to frame this palace." ”
The emperor raised his hand and motioned to Concubine Xiao Shu to shut up, and everyone didn't know what they meant, only to see that the emperor raised his right hand again, pointed at Wang Yang of His Royal Highness, and paused.
"You, you mean that Concubine Shu is also involved."
"Back to Your Majesty, the villain doesn't dare to deceive Your Majesty, how can the palace be heavy and small, how can you come and go freely" Wang Yang obviously knew the method, and shirked his responsibility and didn't care about the four or six.
The emperor turned his finger and pointed at the four princes.
"How do you know the inside story?"
The fourth prince naturally expected such a question, of course he couldn't confess Xiao Chang'an, so of course he had already thought of it.
"Back to the father, the father knew that the son raised a civet cat called 'beans', and was guarded by the servant of the son's servant green lotus, and that night 'beans' went to the imperial dining room to steal food, Xiao Shunzi sneakily was scratched by the 'beans', and the green lotus saw it from afar, so he wanted to hug the 'beans' back, but the 'beans' were like crazy, and they also collided with the county lord of Chang'an who was walking in the imperial garden, causing the county lord to break his foot, and was helped back to the Xiyu Pavilion by my maid to rest."
"Oh, Chang'an, is there such a thing?"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Chang'an, even Xihe looked at him, and received the eye signal of the four princes, Sisi could only smile and answer yes.
"But what does this have to do with poisoning?"
"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, and listen to your sons speak slowly. Green Lotus saw that someone was scratched by the 'beans' and asked someone to ask, the next day I asked a circle, and I knew that this person was not on duty that day, he appeared in the imperial dining room for no reason is very suspicious, thinking of the matter of the antlers is even more strange, Erchen asked Green Lotus to go to the small Shunzi room to ask, only to see that the little Shunzi is stuffing gold and silver into the wrapper, Green Lotus saw that the amount was huge, and immediately pressed to my courtyard for careful interrogation, and then I knew the clue of this matter. ”
The fourth prince looked at Sisi's expression as if he didn't know what was going on, and secretly pulled the corners of his mouth.
"Your Majesty forgives your majesty, the slave really doesn't know that it's poison, Wang Yang only told the slave that it is something that makes people run away, not poison, Wang Yang said that the concubine Niangniang had sent a post to the princess's mansion, the princess did not go to the banquet, the concubine Niangniang held a grudge, so she asked the princess and the county lord to make a fool of themselves at the banquet, and the slave really didn't know that the medicine was harmful to people's lives, Your Majesty!"
"Presumptuous, a mere slave dares to climb the master, and no one will tear his mouth for me!"
Hearing that Xiao Shunzi identified herself in every sentence, how could Concubine Xiao Shufei sit still, but she was too anxious and forgot that the trouble came from her mouth.
The pure concubine naturally will not let go of the slightest opportunity to step on the concubine.
"God has the virtue of a good life, and Concubine Shu has served the Buddha all the year round, and she even said cruel words such as tearing other people's mouths, but I am afraid that the years are quiet and good." The pure concubine sneered.
She understands that if she doesn't step on it at this time, she won't be able to turn over, and in the future, she will be full-fledged, and she will be even more helpless.
Sisi looked at them, you said a word, I said a word, as if you were in the 'Legend of Zhen Huan', the bloody rain of this harem woman is really like this everywhere.
"Ahem, father, the son believes that the mother will not do such a thing, and it is even more impossible to pull the son into the water, please think twice."
The sixth prince was anxious to defend his mother, and his body was extremely weak when he did not recover well, and he coughed incessantly after saying two sentences.
"Send the sixth prince back to the dormitory, and don't allow him to go to the Luoying Palace again" The emperor didn't let him continue, and raised his hand to interrupt him.
The eyes of the six princes widened, and in the end they didn't say anything, and let Gonggong Hong help him out of the Wolong Palace.
Concubine Xiao Shu looked at the back of the sixth prince, and actually shed a tear, after today, she didn't know how she was, but this son should be the last one.
