Chapter 727: Making Something Out of Nothing
Lu Xiyi gave Xiao Tao a look at her side, and she hurriedly took a square and delicate wooden box, about the size of two palms, which contained an incomparably precious and rare South China Sea Night Pearl, which could emit a crystal clear light in the middle of the night, comparable to moonlight.
"Do you still like this? This pearl of the night is the most special tribute of the year. ”
Lu Xiyi looked at Chen Sujie with a generous face, and let her sit on the mahogany chair after serving tea, but Chen Sujie's eyes just glanced at the wooden box coldly, and she didn't have any desire to open it at all, and Xiao Tao's hand was a little embarrassed to put it in the air like this.
"Ahem, little peach, you put the box down first."
"Yes."
After Lu Xiyi gave the order, Xiao Tao retreated and crashed into Ding Lan head-on. Ding Lan looked her up and down with the barrel in his hand and said, "What's the matter with you?" Usually do things quite steadily, why is it frizzy today? ”
"I ......" Xiao Tao looked around, fortunately there was no one on the side, and leaned close to her ear and lowered her voice: "I think the crown princess doesn't take the queen mother in her eyes at all." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, if it reaches the ears of those who have a heart, maybe how to sue the queen mother."
"I really didn't lie to Ding Lan, if you don't believe it, you can go in and see that the atmosphere is a little wrong, the previous crown princess was respectful to the queen, but this one here today is a little different."
"Okay, what does this have to do with our subordinates, it's better to keep your mouth shut tightly, just act as if you can't see anything."
Ding Lan urged Xiao Tao to leave, and the atmosphere in the tourmaline palace was like a cold winter wax moon, which made people feel uncomfortable.
"What, Crown Princess, don't you like this pearl of the night?"
Chen Sujie wiped the corners of her mouth with a plain handkerchief, her cunning eyes turned, and she raised a slight arc, but quickly flattened the corners of her mouth.
"This night pearl is not a rare thing, the tribute from the south city is much bigger than these night pearls."
"Oh? But this is the first time that Nancheng has paid tribute, has the Chen Mansion already had a sneak peek? ”
Lu Xiyi's eyes narrowed slightly, it seemed that Chen Sujie, the little white rabbit, was finally about to show his fox tail.
Chen Sujie held her chest, her face was a little pale, she got up and saluted and said, "Queen Mother, the concubine is a little uncomfortable, and I want to go back to rest first." ”
"Go back and rest so early? It's better to listen to the scriptures in the palace first, maybe the chest tightness will be cured. ”
Lu Xiyi clapped his hands and summoned several monks who were preaching Buddhist scriptures and began to recite the scriptures directly in the Tourmaline Palace. Chen Sujie glanced at Lu Xiyi's face, and clearly wanted to give her a dismount.
"Ahem."
Cai Wei stayed by Chen Sujie's side, looked at Chen Sujie's face with a strange look, and quickly knelt in front of Lu Xiyi and said, "Queen Mother, the crown princess is really unwell, and please be magnanimous." ”
Xiao Tao and Ding Lan stayed on Lu Xiyi's side, holding the pu fan in their hands and shaking the breeze, Lu Xiyi took a nap for a while, heard the voice of Cai Wei, and opened his eyes carelessly.
"What time is it?"
"Back to my mother, it's time to be a son now."
"Where is this time, the Buddhist scriptures can wash away the filth in the heart, and endure the temperament, this is the most important thing."
Lu Xiyi said, yawning lazily, Xiao Tao waved the fan vigorously, lowered her voice and said in a voice as crisp as a silver bell: "But Niangniang, the crown princess has been in the Tourmaline Palace for more than an hour." ”
"It's only been a little over an hour, and it's not too late to stay for another half an hour."
Chen Sujie glanced at Lu Xiyi, pushed away Cai Wei beside him and said, "I'm fine, I can hold on a little longer." ”
Originally, she was pretending to be unwell, but she was just exposed by Lu Xiyi, which did not prevent her from performing next.
Zhaohua Palace, Su Su looked at Baili Yunshen, and gave him a sachet made by himself, "You are leaving, although I don't know when you will come back, then you bring this to you, I hope you can think of me when you see it." ”
"I will."
Baili Yunshen put the sachet on his waist and hung it, looked at Su Su with a reluctant expression, brushed her delicate face and said, "It will be difficult to meet again in the future, but I will always remember you." ”
"You remember me, but I don't necessarily remember you."
Su Su said this and pushed him out of the door, but she leaned against the door and was already crying, crying like a tearful person.
Caiyue walked up at this time, and was surprised to see that Baili Gongzi actually appeared in the palace, and was about to report to the one in Jianzhang Palace, but was knocked out by Baili Yunshen.
Baili Yunshen carefully helped Caiyue to the stone pillar on the side to lie down, and left the palace using the shapeshift, and no one knew that he had been here.
At noon, Su Su opened the door, but found Caiyue lying not far away, frowning slightly, walked over to Caiyue and patted her face and said, "Caiyue, what's wrong with you?" How can you sleep here? ”
"Princess, I seem to have seen ...... just now"
"What do you see?"
Threat flashed in Su Su's eyes, and Caiyue was silent.
"It's nothing, maybe I'm dazzled, I'm sorry princess, Caiyue is too tired, so she secretly hid next to the stone pillar to take a nap, and asked the princess to forgive her sins."
"It's nothing, by the way, I have two phoenix hairpins here. You can send it to your sister-in-law later. ”
"Is it for the crown princess?"
"Of course, who else can I give it to?"
Su Su smiled and took off the phoenix hairpin on her head, she had already heard Caiyue say about this morning's incident, but she didn't expect Chen Sujie to be so disdainful.
"The princess gave the used phoenix hairpin to the crown princess, isn't that right?"
Caiyue said tremblingly.
"You go and deliver it yourself."
"This ......"
"What is this? Do you have to disobey even the orders of this princess? ”
"Slaves don't dare."
"Since you don't dare to disobey, then you don't want to go quickly."
Su Su gave an order, Caiyue didn't dare to look directly, and honestly took the pearl hairpin and rushed to the Moon Picking Pavilion.
Picking the Moon Pavilion, Chen Sujie rubbed her forehead with a headache, Cai Wei served ambergris, and said in a low voice: "Crown Princess, this is sent by the emperor himself, the emperor knows that you have a headache and chest tightness now, so he specially sent ambergris." ”
"Where to put it."
Chen Sujie rolled her eyes and ignored it.
"Crown princess, the slave doesn't seem to treat you very well when she looks at the queen."
"Do you need to say it? The palace also doesn't want to see the queen's mother, half a catty and eight taels. ”
"But the days of this kilometer are still long, and now the relationship is ...... like this."
"Okay, don't talk so much nonsense, just put things down and leave."
Chen Sujie yawned lazily, her face was slightly pale, and she hadn't had a good rest for a while after going to the Tourmaline Palace.
Just as Caiyue was about to retreat, Cai Wei moved the lotus step lightly and walked over.
"I've seen the crown princess."
"It's you, I seem to remember you."
