"Madam, what should I do, it's all to blame on the minions, if only I could stop Miss Shi at that time." The little girl was crying aggrieved and self-reproaching on the side, looking very pitiful.

Su Xiaoman was in no mood to comfort her now, and now that Lu Li had just left, his house was smashed, which was obviously aimed at him.

She knew that this imperial gift could not be touched, Shi Yu grew up in Shangjing, so she naturally knew more about the fate of smashing the imperial gift, she did this just to embarrass herself, or to make the emperor guilty.

"Xiaoman, what happened?" Xia Wanrou hurried over, and was very surprised to see the mess all over the ground.

Although Pearl also talked about it in general, Xia Wanrou didn't expect the scene to be so bad.

Su Xiaoman pointed to the smashed plaque, "Oh, it was smashed by that stone girl when she came to make trouble, I am trying to find a way, in case the emperor knows that the things he gave have become like this, I am afraid that I will be punished." ”

"Shi Yu? It's actually Shiyu! Xia Wanrou, who has always been gentle, couldn't help but be angry, "She and you don't know each other, and you haven't offended her, but now she is provoking in every way with the protection of her family!" Xiaoman, we must go to the emperor to ask for an explanation! ”

As she spoke, Xia Wanrou took Xiao Man's hand and was about to walk out.

But before he took two steps, Xiao Man suddenly stopped and said solemnly: "Now go to the emperor, even if we can come up with evidence that this plaque was smashed by Shi Yu, but I don't take good care of it, and I will also be charged." ”

"So what do we do? Patience again and again will only make those villains more rampant! ”

Su Xiaoman shook his head, "Now that I just came to Beijing, Lu Li is not here, I can do less, I still have to find a way not to save this plaque first, so that I can deal with the emperor." ”

"Deal with the emperor?" Xia Wanrou was puzzled.

Xiao Man sighed, "Shi Yu smashed the plaque of the imperial gift for no reason, is she just trying to vent her evil anger?" If I guessed correctly, she would definitely find a way to let the emperor know about this plaque, so that the emperor could condemn me. ”

Hearing this, Xia Wanrou couldn't help but gasp, Xiao Man had just come to Beijing, and he was careful everywhere but he still provoked Shi Yu, what should I do in the future?

"Sister Wanrou, do you think you can distinguish the handwriting on this plaque?"

Xia Wanrou hurriedly stopped her chaotic thoughts, she walked over and took a closer look, "Naturally, you can see clearly, but what do you want to do?" ”

Su Xiaoman hooked his lips and smiled, "You'll know in the future." ”

is not as Su Xiaoman expected, Shi Yu's desire to talk to her that day was fake, and it was true that he wanted to find a reason to smash the plaque. This plaque is a royal gift, if Su Xiaoman breaks it, even if the emperor is afraid that the landing is not good, he will be severely punished, but once the Son of Heaven is angry, it is not so easy to get through.

On this day, the emperor took the princes and princesses out of the palace to hunt, the ministers accompanied the female relatives of the family, and Wei Xiuyuan also took Xia Wanrou to go, but because Lu was not in Beijing, Xiaoman was not familiar with everyone, so he did not go.

"Madam, you should really go to see such a big occasion, I heard that the ladies in Beijing have gone, but it's lively." The little girl on the side, named Jade, said regrettably.

Pearl laughed at her: "I think it's obvious that you want to go by yourself, but you have to jump Madame, but it's too late at this time, and the hunt must be over." ”

Su Xiaoman lowered his head and embroidered a handkerchief, listening to the two girls arguing, just laughing and not speaking.

Jade pursed her lips and sighed regretfully, and was about to say something, when she suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside.

After a while, I heard the eunuch's characteristic voice shouting: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

"Why did the emperor come to us suddenly, shouldn't he go back to the palace after the hunt?" Emerald panicked.

Pearl hurriedly pulled Xiaoman out of the door, and said as he walked out: "Who knows, but don't talk nonsense later, do you hear?" ”

"Got it, Sister Pearl."

The three of them walked out of the main hall, and as soon as they arrived at the door, they saw a bright yellow guard of honor coming this way, and the three of them quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

Until the emperor walked in, Pearl helped Xiao Man to get up, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Xia Wanrou giving herself a look at herself at the end of the crowd, looking at her very anxious, I don't know what happened.

Seeing this, Pearl quietly approached Xiao Man's ear, "Madam, Mrs. Wei is also behind, looking at her as if something has happened." ”

Xiao Man took advantage of the maid to serve tea to the emperor, and hurriedly glanced at the back of the crowd, only to see Xia Wanrou reaching out to gesture to herself regardless of her manners, Xiao Man frowned slightly, and quickly understood what Xia Wanrou meant.

There is Shi Yu in the casual team this time, and now that the emperor has suddenly arrived here, Su Xiaoman can know who the emperor was led here by and what he is here for.

"Su Shi, I remember that I gave you a plaque, didn't I hang it here before? Why is it missing now? The emperor put down the teacup and looked at Su Xiaoman with eagle eyes, although he was not accountable, his tone was low, obviously not just casually asking.

But fortunately, Su Xiaoman was prepared, she bowed and bowed, "If you go back to the emperor, the concubine sees that the words on the plaque are strong and powerful, and the penmanship is not bad, and she is very admired. ”

As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows and motioned to the little guy at the door, "Bring the plaque up." ”

The two little guys understood and left immediately.

Then, she whispered a few words to Jade beside her, ordering her to bring up the handkerchief she had embroidered in the past few days.

Not long after, the two little guys carried a plaque that had just been framed, only to see that the plaque was clearly embroidered with the four big words of "resisting adversity and lonely loyalty", if not explained in advance, the emperor did not see that this was actually an embroidery.

The ministers in the hall also applauded, except for Shi Yu and her little sister, everyone was shocked by Su Xiaoman's superb craftsmanship and the emperor's fine penmanship.

Seeing that the emperor's face had improved slightly, Su Xiaoman saluted again, "The emperor's calligraphy is shocking, and the concubine's embroidery can't even learn a few points, so he will copy it without the emperor's consent, and hope that the emperor will atone for his sins." ”

The emperor coughed lightly, "It's not bad, there is a bit of aura, but your embroidery method is not as usual, it looks like a bit of the shadow of the embroidery room in the palace." ”

"Yes, there is an old man in the same village as the concubine who used to be a palace maid in the palace, and then returned to his hometown when he was old and taught his life's learning to the concubine." Su Xiaoman replied truthfully.

From this point of view, Lu Li's wife is not a peasant woman, after all, she is literate, has read, and has such good craftsmanship, and her appearance is not bad, regardless of her background, she is not much worse than those noble ladies in Beijing.

The emperor secretly pondered, it seems that he had underestimated Su Xiaoman before.

Just thinking about it, I only heard Su Xiaoman say again: "Your Majesty, this is a handkerchief embroidered by the concubines who have nothing to do, and they are all embroidered by the concubines according to the preferences of each mother and princess. ”

As soon as the words fell, before the emperor could speak, a clear female voice came: "Father, I saw from a distance that this handkerchief was embroidered with red peony flowers, if you take it back to the queen mother, she must like it very much." ”

Listening to her address to the emperor, she seems to be a princess.

Su Xiaoman's grasp in his heart was a little bigger, and he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Alright, take it and take it back." The emperor waved his hand to accept it, and then said, "It's not early, Xiao Xiazi, let's go." ”

"Congratulations to the emperor!"

A group of people left in a mighty way, Wei Xiuyuan and his wife stayed, and Shi Yu was unwilling to deliberately walk at the end, trying to find an opportunity to reprimand Su Xiaoman again.

But before she could find an opportunity, Su Xiaoman took the initiative to find two maids.

Shi Yu only had one maid with him, and Su Xiaoman had two around him, plus this was Su Xiaoman's territory, and there were maintenance eyes and his wife to support her, and most of Shi Yu's arrogance had obviously dissipated.

"What are you doing fiercely, look at me as a bully!" Shi Yu let out a loud roar in his heart, and then called the maid to prepare to leave.

Where is Su Xiaoman willing to let the other party leave so easily, she shouted: "Close the door!" ”

The wooden door slammed shut, and Shi Yu and the maid were surrounded by five people, and finally noticed that something was wrong.

"I'm the granddaughter of a second-grade master, if you dare to do anything to me, the emperor will definitely not spare you!" Shi Yu waved his hands wildly and shouted loudly in his mouth, trying to stop Su Xiaoman from doing what he was going to do next.

Xia Wanrou snorted coldly when she heard this, "Second grade master? Xiaoman is now a first-class wife, and her husband is still fighting outside, if something really happens, do you say that the emperor is defending the granddaughter of a second-grade official, or is he trying to protect Su Xiaoman in order to stabilize the morale of the army? ”

Hearing this, Shi Yu's face changed abruptly, and his body trembled.

She has always been domineering, no one in Beijing dares to take the initiative to provoke her, plus her grandfather holds an important position in the court, if things get big, the emperor will just turn a blind eye and never punish her.

But now hearing Xia Wanrou say this, Shi Yu suddenly became worried.

Su Xiaoman stepped forward with a gloomy face, "Shi Yu, let me tell you, I, Su Xiaoman, have never taken the initiative to stir up trouble, but I am not easy to mess with!" If you provoke again and again, don't blame me for making a big deal out of it, and see what will happen to you and what will happen to your grandfather! ”

Every time she said a word, Shi Yu shuddered uncontrollably, which looked quite funny.

This is not Bishui Village, but Shangjing, where the royal family and nobles and nobles are favored by the clouds, Su Xiaoman was careful in everything when he first arrived, but he couldn't stand Shi Yu's repeated provocations.

If you don't warn her in advance, you don't know what mess she will make in the future.

"Did you hear what Xiaoman said?" Wei Xiuyuan shouted in a deep voice.

Shi Yu trembled again, her face was already pale with fright, she grabbed the maid's hand, "Listen, hear." ”
