The housekeeper pinched the gold leaf in his hand, and the weight was very sufficient, so he also smiled and said: "Father-in-law is polite, if the palace lets it be passed on, the slave will inevitably arrive, late at night, father-in-law be careful." ”

Jiang An nodded, went out and took the carriage and left, waiting until the housekeeper told Mrs. Qin what Jiang An said, Mrs. Qin thought it was something, but she didn't want Mu Xihe to let herself enter the palace?

She glanced coldly at the hosta in the wooden box, and sneered: "I'm embarrassed to give away such a thing, I take it out casually in my makeup, it's more valuable than this, Yu'er, just find a place to throw it away." ”

Yu'er responded, reaching out to take over the wooden box in the family's hand, but she didn't want to touch the wooden box with her hand, Mrs. Qin's eyes flashed and said, "Wait a minute-I'll take a look at the things-"

Yu'er didn't know why, but she still took the thing and handed it to the Qin family.

Qin's face changed after seeing it, and he coughed and said, "Okay, you go down first, if the master comes back, come and talk to me first." ”

The housekeeper retreated, but Yu'er didn't know why: "Madam, what's wrong with this thing?" ”

Qin Shi stretched out her hand to pick up the carnelian hairpin, looked at it carefully, her expression became more and more solemn, she didn't speak, just said to Yu'er: "You prepare, let's enter the palace tomorrow——"

Yu'er became more and more puzzled: "However, this Miss Mu specially sent someone to say that she didn't want you to enter the palace, so why should you-"

Mrs. Qin glanced at Yu'er and said coldly, "What do you know?" Why don't you do what I say? ”

Yu'er didn't know that it was that sentence that angered Mrs. Qin, her heart sank, and she hurriedly retreated, Mrs. Qin held the hosta tightly in her palm, and although the rose petals carved by carnelian were polished round and smooth, it also made her palm white.

I only saw the flowers and leaves of the hosta, an inconspicuous place, and two words were engraved on it, Xing'er.

Yes, Xing'er, this name seems to be a ghost, lingering, she thought that she was just a handmaiden with a bit of grace, she thought that sending her to the palace would save her from trouble, but it seemed that everything did not go according to her ideas.

This night, Qin's almost half-asleep and half-awakened, in the dream, she saw Qin Hao smiling at herself with a bewitching beauty in her arms, that smile was full of provocation, and Qin could clearly see the disdain and ambition in her eyes.

And Qin Hao looked at her so dotingly, helping her to walk cautiously in her direction, Mrs. Qin's feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to move, and when she got closer, she heard Qin Hao say with joy: "Madam, slow down, be careful of our children-"

Child? What child?

Mrs. Qin looked down, only to see Xing'er holding Qin Hao's arm with one hand and holding her high bulging abdomen with the other, like a triumphant general, Mrs. Qin wanted to open her mouth, but she felt that her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she couldn't say anything.

The two gradually got closer, Qin Hao didn't seem to notice her existence, and bumped straight into her, while Xing'er laughed more and more happily, and even a little hideous, suddenly Mrs. Qin felt that her body was empty, and Qin Hao and Xing'er actually passed through her body.

She turned to look, only to see that behind her was full of joy, the big red character was like a sharp blade, constantly rubbing her chest, she looked at the full hall of guests, smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations to Mrs. Qin, Mrs. Qin, Mrs. Qin—"

Mrs. Qin? That slut is Mrs. Qin, so who is she? She tried to rush in and ask for clarification, but her body sank, and she woke up screaming, only to find that it was already dark.

Mrs. Qin sat up from the bed, gasping for breath, Yu'er came in with clear water and said, "What's wrong with Madame?" ”

Mrs. Qin couldn't suppress the anxiety in her heart anymore, and said, "Serve me to get up and make up, I'm going to enter the palace—by the way, is the master back?" ”

Yu'er looked a little timid and said: "I'm back, but the master stayed in the study last night, saying that the lady should rest well when she is sick, and she shouldn't leak to disturb her——"

The Qin clan was furious, and remembered Fang Cai's very real dream, and a chill arose in his sleepless back. I hurriedly ate breakfast and entered the palace.

According to the usual practice, she still went to Yikun Palace first to greet the Queen Mother, but she didn't even enter the door of Yikun Palace, and was told that the Queen Mother was unwell today, so everyone didn't have to bother.

The Qin family was puzzled, and saw that the person who came out to pass the word was a very naïve little palace maid, and Mrs. Qin didn't know it, so she said strangely: "Why are you talking back?" What about the people around the Queen Mother? What about Aunt Zike and Father-in-law Li? ”

The little palace maid said: "Madame doesn't know, the Queen Mother has punished several waves of eunuchs and palace maids recently, and now no one around her dares to serve closely, so Gonggong Li and Aunt Zike are busy taking care of the Queen Mother, and the slave has to come to such a trivial matter as passing the word." ”

Mrs. Qin naturally heard about the Queen Mother's reprimand for His Majesty, and she had already believed most of the words of this little palace maid, she thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, then I will bother you to talk back to the Queen Mother, and say that I have been here." ”

After speaking, he wanted to turn around, as if he remembered something, and turned around again and said: "By the way, there is a palace maid who originally came out of my mansion, and I don't know what is being disposed of——"

The little palace maid hurriedly comforted: "Madame is talking about Sister Xing'er, she is now deeply favored by the Queen Mother, Madame can rest assured, speaking of which, Sister Xing'er is really a good life, not only Madame cares, even Lord Qin is also very concerned, with the help of two nobles, Sister Xing'er is not worried about having no future——"

She said to herself, not caring at all that Mrs. Qin's face had sunk, and Yu'er saw that the situation was not good, so she coughed and said, "Madam, don't we still have to visit the county lord and Miss Mu, don't miss the hour." ”

As he spoke, he half-dragged Mrs. Qin, who was pale, and left.

Mrs. Qin was so angry that she shook off Yu'er's hand, turned around and wanted to go back to Yikun Palace to find Xing'er.

Yu'er hurriedly dissuaded: "Madam, calm down, you didn't listen to the palace maid, the Queen Mother has already disposed of a group of palace maids and eunuchs, and she reprimanded Your Majesty before, you are now in the past, if you anger the Queen Mother, I am afraid that you will also suffer——"

Mrs. Qin calmed down at this time, held back the anger in her heart, and said hurriedly: "Could it be that I just let that little slut go?" You've just heard about it, sir- I'm really—really—"

She was so angry that she felt all the grievances in her heart, and couldn't help crying, Yu'er hurriedly took out a silk to wipe Mrs. Qin's tears, and said: "Madame, don't worry, no matter what, she is just a lowly person, even if the lord likes it and is accepted into the house, she is just an aunt, what to do with it when the time comes, it's not Madame, you have the final say?" ”

Mrs. Qin suddenly remembered the dream she had last night, and she muttered; "No, even if I die, I can't let her enter the Qin Mansion, let's go, let's go to Hanyue Tower-"

As he spoke, he viciously wiped away the tears on his cheeks, and walked quickly in the direction of Hanyue Tower.

When Jiang An saw Mrs. Qin, he was still full of surprise, but in an instant, his expression returned to normal, as usual, leading Mrs. Qin in, He Xi seemed to have expected Mrs. Qin to come, and there were two freshly brewed teas on the table.

After Ruyi set the refreshments, he bowed down and left, Jiang An originally wanted to serve left and right, but when he saw Ruyi, he withdrew. also hesitated to follow out.

Yu'er looked at Mrs. Qin, Mrs. Qin bowed slightly, and she followed Ruyi out of the inner hall together.

Jiang An looked at Ruyi with some puzzlement and said, "Why did Mrs. Qin come here today?" ”

Ruyi also looked at Jiang An with puzzlement: "Didn't you tell Mrs. Qin to come over today?" ”

Jiang An didn't want to pretend when he saw Ruyi's expression, so he could only say sarcastically: "Yes, it's just that Mrs. Qin only said that she was sick yesterday, and I was just curious that she entered the palace today." ”

Yu'er stood aside and said with an embarrassed smile: "Madame has just had nightmares lately, and the doctor said that it is a good life, so I just want to go into the palace to talk to Miss Mu today." ”

Different from the whispers of a few people outside the hall, in the hall, He Xi just tasted the fragrant tea in his hand with an indifferent expression.

But Mrs. Qin was different, the more He Xi didn't say a word, the more uncomfortable Mrs. Qin became, and finally, she seemed to be unable to help it, took out the carnelian hairpin that He Xi sent to the Qin Mansion yesterday, and said, "Miss Mu, what do you mean by this?" ”

He Xi stretched out his hand to take the hosta and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qin, how about we talk about a deal?" ”

Madam Qin sneered and said, "Miss Mu, I advise you to put away those tricks and calculations—"

He Xi was not impatient, he just put his hand on the hosta, and his slender and soft white fingers rubbed the word Xing'er on it thinly, and said, "Why doesn't Mrs. Qin listen to my conditions first and then think about it?" ”

Mrs. Qin felt that the white fingers were not placed on the hosta, but tightly clamped around her throat, and her voice trembled unconsciously: "What-what does it mean-"

He Xi didn't sell it either, and said straight to the point: "I helped you solve her, but you have to help me investigate one thing——"

Mrs. Qin got up in a hurry, and unconsciously overturned the tea cup on the desk, and the dripping tea stains spread down her clothes, embarrassed.

She said as if unconsciously, "Ridiculous, simply ridiculous—"

He Xi looked at her steadily, and said as if she was waiting for the prey to surrender and continued to lure: "A few days ago, Lord Qin was in Yikun Palace, but she was alone with this Xing'er girl for a while, does Mrs. Qin want to know what happened during this time?" ”

Qin's arm trembled slightly, and he shook his head and said, "No-how would you know-can't be-"
