Chapter 123: Circumstance

After Yi Sixian left, An Dong didn't immediately come up and take Su Ruhui down, Queen Zhou waved An Qiu's hand away, frowned, and said, "What are you doing?" Yi'er was so easy that the Queen Mother nodded and let you come out of the Dividing Palace, but you made a food box - who got the box in? ”

"Niangniang, the courtiers really don't know!" Su Ruhui can't believe it now, where is she willing to tell her the truth? Besides, Queen Zhou is not Huo Guifei, Huo Guifei may cover up for herself in this matter in order to be willing, but Queen Zhou can't wait for the other princes to be contaminated with right and wrong, so as not to threaten the prince's position as prince.

Su Ruhui can understand this mood, but it doesn't mean that she is willing to help Queen Zhou deal with King Chu, especially by herself.

So Su Ruhui's eyes immediately turned red when she heard this, and she said aggrievedly: "The courtiers didn't bring anything when they moved to the Huagong Palace, and that Gonggong Yi led four grandmothers to go, and they packed up after a while, and they were all going to leave, but who knew that a grandmother suddenly pretended to miss and dropped the burden to the ground, and when she leaned over to pick it up, she called out and said that there was something under the bed!" Otherwise, the courtiers still don't know why the food box in Jiamu Palace ran under the courtier's bed. ”

"Think about it, there are not many palace people in the Huagong Palace, and the Jiamu Palace is where the prince lives, and the guards outside are personally selected by His Majesty and the Queen Mother, and they have always been cautious. Empress Zhou said earnestly.

Su Ruhui sneered in her heart, this queen thought it was good when she first entered the palace, but later she heard that Gan Ran and Gan Tang were reluctant to call her her mother, and thought that it was instigated by the Huo family and the Shen family, but now it looks more and more wrong, Queen Zhou said this is nothing more than coaxing herself to say that the food box was given by the king of Chu!

In this palace, who is from the twenty-fifth year of Changtai who doesn't know that when he moved to the palace for the first time, he was willing to send even the cold incense charcoal that can only be used by the four concubines of the first grade and above to be sent into the Chunsheng Palace? I'm afraid that as soon as the news of the food box comes out, the palace will immediately be sure of Gan Ran.

But it must be affirmed, there is no one to corroborate this matter anyway, and neither he nor Gan Ran's identities can be bent into a move, Su Ruhua looked immovable, and resolutely shook his head and said: "Niangniang, you don't know - because of Hongluan, oh no, it's Cui Jiali, in the past two days, Ruhua and Xiuwan thought that she was lost, so they also searched for it several times in the Jiehua Palace, and they didn't even clean the residence with a heart, otherwise they would have found the food box a long time ago." ”

When it comes to Cui Jiali, Queen Zhou's face flashed a trace of displeasure, and said: "When you talk about the newly sealed beauty of the palace, then you can say one more thing, this palace is not a person who can't tolerate people, and now the six palaces are full of this palace is not short of a small beauty, but the glow and fog and moon ring is a Siamese tribute, and there are only ten pairs in total over the years, except for the big festival rewarded to the queens, only the concubine, the virtuous concubine, Mrs. Minli and Liu Xiurong each got a pair, Concubine De's eyes have been hot for so many years, and His Majesty has not been able to give it to her. At this time, Cui Jiali is certainly favored, but as an imperial concubine, she should also remember to be cautious in her words and deeds, I heard that Jiali was treated as a daughter by Mrs. Zheng Yejun in the Wudehou Mansion in the past, just look at you and know that Mrs. Zheng Yejun is not a person without proportion, why did the new seal of the beauty become like this? ”

"The lesson of the mother is that Cui Jiali has always been valued by her mother when she was at home in the past, and it is precisely because she is steady and not arrogant or impatient, how can she not know the balance once she wins the favor of His Majesty? Niangniang didn't know, the courtiers heard the words of the little palace maid at the door of Youzhu Pavilion back to Father-in-law Yi, and only said that the beauty had not seen the glow and fog and moon ring, so His Majesty took pity on it and ordered someone to take it to the beauty to take a look at the vision, and did not say that it would be given. Su Ruhui said respectfully, "But it bothered the mother." ”

Queen Zhou raised her eyebrows and said: "It's also that the Xiaguang Fog Moon Ring is too precious, at the beginning, Concubine De was angry with Concubine Xian for this, until now, Zhang An was worried that His Majesty's new favorite was not from the right background, and he didn't know what to do, so he rashly opened his mouth to ask for it, which caused another wave in the Sixth Palace, so he sent someone to tell the palace and let the palace persuade one or two." Since you said that this Cui Jiali is steady, then this palace will not worry about her for the first time, and watch her next words and deeds. Naturally, the queen would not let Su Ruhui catch her for the crime of spying on the emperor's traces so easily, and she lightly dragged the news of her own bamboo pavilion so quickly.

"At the beginning, because Xiuwan's health was not good, the queen mother took pity, so she and Qingque were allowed to enter the palace without learning the rules, where did you know that it would ......" Su Ruhui didn't expect to embarrass the queen, frowned slightly, and didn't say anything halfway through the words.

"The two of them originally came into the palace to serve you, who knew that it had only been a few days since they entered the palace? One was killed in Mingguang Palace, and the other was favored by His Majesty, and there was still only one Xiuwan left around you. Empress Zhou shook her head, turned her head to An Dong and said, "Forget it, the palace is lacking, you go and clean up a room and come out." An Dong nodded, and Queen Zhou replied to Su Ruhua, "Since Your Majesty said that let the palace be taken care of by you, and the palace is not good at favoritism, I will let the nurse of the palace, Mama Zhou, go to stay with you for one night, there are so many things in the mess today, and it will be difficult for you to sleep well, Mama Zhou is older, so accompany you. The bed also allows you to sleep soundly. ”

"Thank you for your trouble." Su Ruhui showed a grateful expression, "The courtier's face is not very good, it is all the courtier's daughter who was accidentally framed, and she has to disturb the mother so late." ”

"It's nothing, you've been in the palace for many years, this palace has always been treated like half a daughter, but you can't make those big mistakes, so that the palace, the queen mother, and Your Majesty are disappointed." Queen Zhou was kind and pleasant, Su Ruhui became more and more frightened: "Even if you borrow ten dares from the courtiers, you don't dare to make those mistakes that shouldn't be made, speaking of which the virtuous concubine Niangniang has treated the courtiers like daughters over the years, Niangniang thinks about it, when the courtiers moved to the Chunsheng Palace, wasn't it because the courtiers interceded with the virtuous concubine Niangniang that the courtiers returned to Renshou Palace?" Such a great kindness has never been repaid, but what is the benefit of the courtiers who hurt the virtuous concubine? ”

Queen Zhou sighed and said: "This palace also thinks that you are not that kind of person, but among the things that the virtuous concubine ate that day, only the jade Tianxiang cake you brought was a worrying crane, and the worrying crane is not an ordinary thing. So even if the palace and the queen mother have mercy on you, you still have to continue to be grounded until the matter of the concubine is clarified, and if you are really wronged at that time, the queen mother and your majesty will also compensate you. ”

"The courtiers don't feel wronged, but they are just worried about Concubine Xian Niangniang - I just heard that Grandpa Yi said that Niangniang hasn't woken up yet!" Su Ruhui's tears fell as she spoke, and Queen Zhou nodded with a heavy face: "Concubine Xian injured her body when she was born in Le'an in her early years, and she will raise her well over the years, but she has too many worries......"

"Niangniang, I don't know if the ingredients and other things in Lumingtai have been checked? The courtiers are absolutely harmless to the heart of the virtuous concubine, but they don't know who is so vicious and insidious! ”

"Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have sent someone to check, but nothing has been found, now the most suspicious is you, although the Queen Mother and the palace are watching you grow up, but the two new maids around you have just come in from outside the palace, although Mrs. Zheng Yejun is quite talented in governing the family, but as the saying goes, a saint must have a mistake, maybe he will be blinded by which one is not long-sighted, but it is a pity that His Majesty was furious at that time, and suddenly beat the girl called Qingque to death, and now this Hongluan did not interfere in the dim sum and made a beauty, but it is a little difficult to check." Empress Zhou seemed to shake her head regretfully and looked at Su Ruhui.

Su Ruhui hurriedly knelt down and said: "Mother doesn't dare to be compared to a saint, but Qingque is the son of the Su family, not to mention that the pastries of that day are not only tasted by Concubine Xian, Sister Yi'er also tried them and brought some back to her yard, speaking of which, Qingque was the first time to see Concubine Xian Niangniang that day, how could she ......?"

"What do you say? Yi'er has also eaten those dim sum?! Queen Zhou suddenly shouted, "Why didn't you say it earlier!" Since there is a problem with that dim sum, what do you want to do and give it to Yi'er to eat?! Do you want to kill her? Zhou Hou suddenly became angry and even An Qiu was startled, An Dong just packed up the back and forth, and hurriedly avoided it when he saw this.

Su Ruhui hurriedly kowtowed and argued loudly: "Niangniang Mingjian, it was before the courtiers went to Mingguang Palace, Sister Yi'er came over, and it happened that Qingque was making pastries, thinking that her sister loved to eat, so she took out a copy and Yi'er, she tasted good, so she took the initiative to ask for one...... At that time, Sister Yi'er didn't have anything to do! How did the courtiers think that something happened when they got the virtuous concubine? Otherwise, don't talk about Sister Yi'er, even the few courtiers who Qingque tried to taste earlier in order to see how the pastry tasted would definitely stop her! ”

Queen Zhou's phoenix eyes narrowed, and she used the wide sleeves of her phoenix robe to hide her hand holding the back of the chair, and said coldly: "I see, this palace didn't hear about it, thinking that Concubine Xian is still unconscious, it's also a hurry, you go down." ”

"Yes." Su Ruhui kowtowed respectfully, and then got up and retreated with An Dong.

As soon as Su Ruhui left the Changle Palace, Queen Zhou angrily threw a seed jade piece at her feet: "This Su family is so vicious!" ”
