Chapter 116: Vomiting Blood
Xiangyun is a high-eyed and low-handed person, and after this incident, Yixuan is no longer useful to her heart.
"Forget it, you get up and go out first." Yixuan raised her hand.
Xiangyun got up and retreated with a face full of grievances. Leaving Vanilla alone kneeling uneasily in front of Yixuan.
"Can you figure out what you're doing wrong?" Yixuan asked.
Vanilla wringed her dress in both hands, and her eyes were full of tears, strange and pitiful. As soon as Yixuan asked her, she bit her lip nervously and replied, "Slave maid...... The slave didn't lock the house properly, allowing the bad guys to take advantage of it. ”
When she said this, Yixuan and Shuang'er couldn't help laughing.
Vanilla's cheeks flushed, and her head lowered even more.
Yi Xuan was good-tempered and said: "Bad people can't be prevented." It's not that you didn't lock the house, it's that you don't know how to justify. This time, I just happened to come back from Hongu just in time to save your life. What if Hongu doesn't come back next time? What do you do? ”
Vanilla thought about it seriously.
"For today, you have to find a way to prove that this thing is not yours, and as for how to prove it, you have to rely on your own head to think about it. If it really doesn't work, you can also move out the main palace to deter them. The corners of Yixuan's mouth curved, "The official level crushes people to death, and it is the same in this palace." ”
Vanilla looked at Yixuan with a look of adoration, "The slave understands, thank you for teaching the princess!" ”
"Let's go down."
After Vanilla left, Shuang'er closed the door.
Yixuan lifted the top of the incense burner, used a hairpin to remove the remaining ashes, and asked Shuang'er to take the agarwood incense.
Shuang'er put the spices on the table, Yixuan scooped a little with a silver spoon, poured it into the incense burner, and then closed the top of the stove. Then lie down on the desk and close your eyes and meditate.
Shuang'er asked in a low voice: "The master is not satisfied with Xiangyun?" ”
Yixuan didn't open her eyes, and said lazily: "Send her some idle work in the future, and don't let her feel too neglected." Xiangyun is a girl with a high heart, but unfortunately she is not smart enough. ”
Shuang'er said "yes", took a palace fan to the master, and asked, "I don't know something." ”
"Say."
"Why didn't the master pursue it? As long as it is found that it was planted by the people of Zhilan Academy, won't the matter be over? ”
Yi Xuan opened her eyes and smiled, "Is Concubine Hu a person who can be caught with her hands tied?" If I insist on investigating, it will only kill another life. ”
Shuang'er thought about it and came to her senses.
According to Concubine Hu's temperament, she will definitely kill someone and throw her body before the master finds someone. At that time, I am afraid that I will not be able to find anyone if I turn the entire palace over. In that case, it becomes Saiyoshi's lying.
"The master is wise."
After Hu Qingyun returned to Zhilan Courtyard, he picked up the porcelain cup on the table and threw it on the ground, startling the maids who followed.
"Let's all go down." Suwen turned back and instructed the maids.
"Yes."
Miaoqin closed the door, and Suwen went to pick up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and the two of them didn't say a word. Accidentally, Su Wen's hand was cut open by the sharp porcelain piece, and blood gushed outward.
"Just ask the little maid to pick it up, why do you ......" Hu Qingyun held Su Wen's hand and said distressedly.
Su Wen shook his head with a smile, signaled that he was fine, and persuaded: "Master, don't be angry. Although the death of the Zhuang family's mother and son could not be blamed on the princess today, didn't the princess fail to explain that this matter was related to Zhilan Temple? The slave maid thought that this matter had made enough trouble, and it was not appropriate to make a big fuss, so the master directly pushed a maid out to accept the offense. ”
Hu Qingyun closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Why is there no movement over there in Huaying Pavilion?" Didn't Concubine Li know that Zhuang Liu was dead? ”
Miaoqin replied: "It was the princess who ordered to hide Hua Yingge and not to stimulate Concubine Li." ”
When Hu Qingyun heard this, he smiled coldly, and his eyes were sinister: "I'll send the news to Hua Yingge." One day husband and wife for 100 days, I finally asked Concubine Li to meet Zhuang Liu for the last time. The princess did this because she didn't want to reunite other husbands and wives. ”
Miaoqin took the order, went to the kitchen to ask for some food, put it in a food box, and took the two little maids to Huaying Pavilion.
The gate of Huaying Pavilion was closed.
She knocked several times before a voice came from inside, asking who it was.
"I'm Miaoqin from Shiran-in. On the orders of the master, I came to send some food to Concubine Li. The master is very worried about Concubine Li, so he asked my sister to open the door, so that I could see the concubine, and I could go back to my master to deal with him. ”
"It's Sister Miaoqin. But my master said, if you don't see a guest, you should please go back. ”
"Good sister, just let me in. I still have some tea money here, so you can rest and go have some tea. ”
The man inside hesitated for a moment before opening the door. Miaoqin stepped into the threshold with one foot, smiled and stuffed the silver into the maid's hand, and lifted the food box to show her: "I have to send it to Concubine Li quickly, don't get cold with good dishes." ”
“…… Then there you go. ”
Miaoqin walked directly to the door of the main house, knocked twice, and it was Song Ju who came to open the door, and saw that it was Miaoqin with a suspicious face: "Why are you here?" ”
"My master was very worried about Concubine Li, and wanted to come and see it in person, but there were too many things to leave, so he let me come. This is a meal cooked in the small kitchen of Zhilan Courtyard, and the master asked me to bring it to Concubine Li. ”
Song Ju glanced hesitantly into the room and said, "Concubine Fang is in a bad mood, she has been having an attack all morning, this time has just stopped, you must be careful, don't anger her again." ”
"I understand." Miaoqin nodded repeatedly.
So Song Ju took Miaoqin into the house. Miaoqin looked down all the way and found that the ground was a mess, and it had only been hastily cleaned up. Song Ju was a little surprised, and explained: "The master does not allow the maids to come in. ”
Miaoqin nodded understandingly, "Sister is really hard." ”
Li Jingyan was nesting on the kang at this time, and her eyes were fixed on a pair of clay figures. This clay figure was given to her by Zhuang Liu, a man and a woman. Because the door was closed and the room was dim, Li Jingyan was wearing a plain white flowing gown, which looked like a ghost.
Li Jingyan didn't notice that there was another person in the room, until Miaoqin came up and saluted her: "Say hello to Concubine Li." ”
Li Jingyan raised her head, her eyes turned around Miaoqin's face and then moved away, continuing to look at her clay figurines.
“……”
Miaoqin put the food box on the table and said, "The master cares about Concubine Li very much, so he specially ordered the slave and maid to send some food." The master said: Although Zhuang Gongzi is gone......"
Song Ju's heart jumped suddenly, and he hurriedly grabbed Miaoqin, and shouted: "What nonsense! ”
Miaoqin looked innocent: "I'm not talking nonsense." Isn't Zhuang Gongzi just ......"
Song Ju regretted it in her heart, she shouldn't have let this unobtrusive girl in, it was easy to hide from her master, and now she came to make trouble again! Song Ju didn't say a word, covered Miaoqin's mouth, and dragged her outside, while saying, "Sister Miaoqin, you better go back first." ”
Miao Qin's struggle.
Li Jingyan narrowed her eyes slightly, "Song Ju, stop." ”
"Master, the slave shouldn't let Miss Miaoqin in, so take her away."
"I told you to stop." Li Jingyan said coldly.
Song Ju was stunned for a moment, and let go of Miaoqin in a dejected manner. Miaoqin straightened her hair and complained, "Sister Songju, what are you doing here?" ”
"What do you mean when you just said that Zhuang Gongzi is gone?" Li Jingyan's voice was flat and bland, but there was a deep coolness and tiredness.
Miaoqin said, "This ...... It means that Zhuang Gongzi is dead. Doesn't the side concubine know? ”
Li Jingyan's eyes suddenly widened, her expression was dazed, she suddenly mourned, covered her chest with her hands, her body trembled for a long time, and finally vomited a mouthful of blood.
Song Ju hurriedly stepped forward to hug the master, crying and calling people. The maid waiting outside didn't know what was going on, and all of them rushed in, and Song Ju pointed at Miaoqin with red eyes and said, "Drag her out!" The rest of the people go to the doctor! ”
Miaoqin is also very knowledgeable, so she didn't wait for anyone to drag her, and left by herself.
Li Jingyan was lying on Song Ju's shoulder, she had lost some weight these days, and the butterfly bones on her back touched her hands, thin and pitiful.
Song Ju barely held back her crying.
She even suspected that Miaoqin did it on purpose. Even the princess knew that the master couldn't afford the blow and couldn't let the master know the news. Miaoqin came to preach it.
Could it be that Miaoqin was instructed by Concubine Hu......
Song Ju thought about this, and couldn't help but be stunned, and was about to tell her master about the suspiciousness, Li Jingyan suddenly grabbed her hand and asked, "Is what Miaoqin said true?" ”
"No, no, Zhuang Gongzi has nothing to do." Song Ju shook her head desperately.
Li Jingyan sneered, "You lied to me." Even you lied to me! She pushed Song Ju away, put on her shoes and ran outside. Seeing this, Song Ju hurriedly hugged her clothes and went out.
The master and servant ran all the way to Cuiwei Courtyard.
Song Ju took Li Jingyan's hand and pleaded: "Master, go back, okay?" You can't get involved in that. Zhuang Gongzi's death was just an accident, and it had nothing to do with the princess, you came here so rashly, and it was not good for the prince to know it. ”
Li Jingyan shook her off and sneered: "It's okay? I think it was she who killed Liu Yan in order to kill people! It's a big deal, I'll die with her! If you're afraid, go back to Xi'an now! ”
Yixuan watched this scene in the house and had a headache.
As the saying goes, if you are willing to cut your body, you dare to pull the emperor off the horse. Li Jingyan was discouraged, and it was even likely that she wanted to die with Zhuang Liu. Before he died, he wanted to pull her on his back.
She cherishes her little life, but she doesn't dare to let people abuse it at will.
"Master, I'll take a few people to drive Concubine Li away...... It's not like that. Shuang'er proposed.
Yixuan glanced out the window and saw Song Ju desperately tugging at Li Jingyan's arm. She pondered and said, "Don't drive away, you knock Li Jingyan unconscious first, and then bring Song Ju to see me." ”
Song Ju, this girl, seems to be sensible, and she didn't mess around with her master.
"Yes."
Shuang'er opened the door and went out. As soon as Li Jingyan saw her, it was as if she had seen Yixuan, and her eyes were on fire, "Where is your master?!" Give me back my life! Wen Yixuan! You hear ......"
Shuang'er slashed at the back of Li Jingyan's neck with a hand knife, and Li Jingyan immediately fainted.
"Master!" Song Ju exclaimed.
"Concubine Li is fine, but she fainted. Otherwise, if you make trouble like her, your body won't be able to stand it. ”
Song Ju nodded with tears, "Yes, the master just vomited blood." ”
"Vomiting blood?" Shuang'er was surprised, "Did you call a doctor?" ”
"Someone has been sent."
Shuang'er patted Song Ju comfortingly, "Carry Concubine Li into the wing room first, the princess wants to see you." ”
