Chapter 161: Watching the Tiger Fight on the Mountain
Concubine Liu woke up in a panic, her pupils contracted suddenly, and she let go of her hand holding Shen Tingting's clothes as if she had touched a hot potato: "I'm Concubine Liu." ”
Shen Tingting chuckled and shook her head: "If I am not mistaken, you are from the Kingdom of Wu, you are the county lord in the palace of the King of Wu Kingdom, and your status is lower than that of Princess Gulun, but you call Princess Gulun the title, sister, what is the reason?" ”
"You!"
Concubine Liu pursed her lips and glared at Shen Tingting and refused to make a sound. Originally, there was only a hidden spring, and there was a burst of crystal in the big eyes that were full of charm, Shen Tingting saw in her eyes, and saw that there were more and more people coming and going at the gate of Hualin Palace, so she turned around and prepared to leave.
It's just that after walking two steps, he suddenly stopped, stood with his back to Concubine Liu, and said, "If my sister wants to say, Concubine Liu's palace is waiting for you at any time." However, it's better for my sister to be vigilant and not to talk nonsense, so as not to hurt Gu Lun. ”
Concubine Liu replied in a low voice: "I know." ”
Shen Tingting turned around in a panic, only to find that Concubine Liu had arrived in front of her, and was about to pass by herself. When he passed by, he just threw a not salty and indifferent look, he was still charming, demonic like a spirit fox, and vaguely with a kind of nobility and mockery, which was exactly the same as when Shen Tingting first saw her.
Concubine Liu swayed her waist and walked away, holding on to the threshold and entering the gate of Hualin Palace. The sun shining on the snow was extremely bright and dazzling, and Shen Tingting only felt that her eyes seemed to be flashed by such a bright daylight, and she was sighing and helpless when she saw the golden steps on Concubine Liu's head swaying.
Concubine Liu's stupidity is all pretended?
Or is there something unspeakable?
Shen Tingting's hands in her sleeves were subconsciously clasped together, clenching them tightly, until she felt a tingling pain in her palms before she woke up, and thoughtfully entered the gate of Hualin Palace.
At the corner of the corridor behind the gate, Zhang Kun, who was usually dressed in purple, stood quietly with his hands behind his back, as if he had been waiting there.
Shen Tingting paused and said to Zhang Kun's back: "Mingguo is a good public security." ”
Zhang Kun paused, turned around and looked at Shen Tingting: "I've been waiting for my mother for a long time." He looked behind Shen Tingting again, frowned, and said, "You're coming alone?" ”
Shen Tingting raised her eyelids slightly, but her gaze was still on Zhang Kun's purple cloud boots that were slightly exposed on the outside of the robe, and the pure gold auspicious cloud flow pattern flowed like water, spreading all the way along the same pattern on the purple robe, and clustered with python patterns on the chest.
The fathers of the Zhang family have a very special status, and even the official robes are mavericks. The usual official robe should be dark color, and the patterns that should be in each position are lined up from the chest of python and tiger, among which the python pattern is only the golden dragon on Feng Jinyi's body.
Shen Tingting secretly thought it was funny, even if Shen Tingting didn't show up, it would be a matter of time before the Zhang family fell, the so-called tree big wind is such a reason, not to mention that there is a saying that prosperity must decline?
With the support of the Empress Dowager, the Zhang family has entered its heyday, and it is almost on an equal footing with Feng Jinyi, how can Feng Jinyi allow the courtiers to ride on his head all the time?
Thinking of this, Shen Tingting looked at Zhang Kun's gaze with a little pity.
Even if he won the position of the head of the Zhang family, could he change the fate of the Zhang family's downfall?
"Why is the mother looking at me like this?" Zhang Kun asked.
Shen Tingting shook her head, took the lead in front of Zhang Kun, and asked without looking back, "I don't know what to look for?" ”
Zhang Kun sighed slightly: "It's fine." Just know you're coming, just wait here. ”
Shen Tingting turned her head and looked sideways at Zhang Kun......
"If you have something to say, you might as well say it." Shen Tingting frowned.
Zhang Kun smiled, glanced at Shen Tingting deeply and said, "No." The stage is open in front, so let's go inside. ”
Zhang Kun missed Shen Tingting walking forward, there was a lot of hurry between her backs, and she seemed to be avoiding something.
Shen Tingting looked around, and didn't find anything unusual around, but she kept an extra thought, there is no queen in such an important scene today, it seems that it must be a game.
………………………………
In Zhaoyang Courtyard, Xiao Min walked to Zuo Tingxue with hot porridge, "Queen Mother, the concubine is enjoying the scenery in the plum garden over there, I invite you to go with me, see if you want to go." ”
Zhang Qian didn't want to invite Zuo Tingxue, but when Zhang Kun learned the news, he didn't agree, such a big scene, if he didn't invite the queen, he would be working against her.
This will not only attract disadvantage to the Zhang family, but also attract gossip.
Zhang Qian listened to Zhang Kun's words, and hurriedly asked people to invite Zuo Tingxue.
Zuo Tingxue listened to Xiao Min's words, and said with a cold smile: "What time is it now, the news has just come, I don't want to let me go after seeing this Zhang Qian, so why bother to touch the ashes in this palace, it is better for us to push the boat down the river, not to go to this kind of place, and also give her a chance to hold a banquet." ”
After listening to Zuo Tingxue's words, Xiao Min was stunned and said, "Queen, you said that this banquet is a Hongmen banquet, who will it be for?" ”
Zuo Tingxue picked up the porridge and smiled coldly, "Princess Gulun married into the Zhang family, and Shen Tingting hid the real Princess Gulun, Zhang Qian held a Hongmen banquet, so naturally it was for her." ”
"Then the queen, aren't you going to help Concubine Ning?" Xiao Min looked at Zuo Tingxue in confusion, usually there is anything, Zuo Tingxue must be there, today's thing that makes people angry, Zuo Tingxue is so calm, Xiao Min naturally feels wrong.
"Hehe, don't underestimate Shen Tingting, she is an introvert on the surface, she has more tricks in her heart than anyone else, Zhang Qian She just relies on the Queen Mother and Zhao Guo, a relative, to dare to show off her power so boldly, she doesn't dare to do anything to Shen Tingting." Zuo Tingxue drank porridge as she spoke, and didn't seem to take this matter to heart.
And Xiao Min couldn't hold her breath, "Queen, the concubine's approach obviously doesn't take you seriously, so why don't you teach her a lesson and stop her arrogance?" ”
Zuo Tingxue was still calm and calm, "I will teach her a lesson sooner or later, but not today, my goal is to destroy the entire Zhang family, not against her alone." ”
Xiao Min could only nod silently when she heard this, Zuo Tingxue drank the porridge and said: "You go to Hualin Courtyard, the first is to say that I am unwell and will not go, the second is to secretly observe the Zhang family and report the news to me at any time, and the third is to help if Shen Tingting can't resist it, if she can settle it, you don't want to get involved." ”
"Yes, don't worry, the queen, I will do it." Xiao Min said and walked away with the empty bowl.
Looking at Xiao Min's distant back, Zuo Tingxue sneered, Zhang Qian wanted to tease her and be tender, she didn't have to make a move at all now, she just needed to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight now, and make a move when necessary.
Zuo Tingxue was thinking about things, when the little white tiger walked in slowly, its body was wet, and it looked like it had just been wet from playing in the snow again.
The little white tiger shook his head and tail mischievously, and slowly walked into Zuo Tingxue, a pair of watery eyes looked at Zuo Tingxue, like a child who made a mistake and crawled at the foot of Zuo Tingxue.
Zuo Tingxue looked at the behemoth in front of her, and recalled the time when she had just brought the little white tiger home.
At that time, the little white tiger could not eat, so he took a mouthful of milk and ate it slowly with his mouth.
Now that he has grown so big, he has been with him for nearly ten years, and now his children are more than eight years old.
Yan Congxuan died twice in his own hands, and now Zuo Tingxue has taken revenge, for the hatred of the past, although she feels sorry for her family in her heart, the hatred she once had no longer exists.
What she has to do now is to smooth out the bumps and fetters on the road for the wind and rain.
Zuo Tingxue looked at the little white tiger and asked softly, "Susu, are you naughty again?" Look at you, is it cold or not? ”
Zuo Tingxue was worried that it would catch a cold, and the little white tiger saw that Zuo Tingxue cared about him, so he happily rubbed under Zuo Tingxue's feet, and seemed to say: "I'm not cold." ”
Zuo Tingxue happily stroked its head, and then the little white tiger suddenly stood up, gently bit Zuo Tingxue's skirt, pulled it outside, and then walked out.
Zuo Tingxue felt a little wrong when she saw it, and the little white tiger seemed to be guiding something?
Zuo Tingxue saw the little white tiger walk to the door and stopped, and turned her face to look at her, as if to see if Zuo Tingxue had come along?
Seeing this, Zuo Tingxue hurriedly followed, at this time Ah Qi and Jiu'er came, Jiu'er saw Zuo Tingxue follow the little white tiger to the back mountain, and hurriedly followed and asked, "Queen, where are you going?" ”
"What does Susu seem to have discovered? Let's follow it and see. ”
After listening to Zuo Tingxue's words, Jiu'er and Ah Qi followed behind them, passing through the palace courtyard, and soon they came to the back mountain.
There is no figure in the back mountain now, except for the footprints of the little white tiger, there are no footprints of people, and everyone followed the little white tiger to the cave.
Although it was dark inside, it could still be seen, and after walking for a while, the little white tiger stopped, only to see that there was a white tiger inside, and the white tiger was injured on the leg and had a few knife cuts on his body.
The blood flowing from the wound has dyed some of the white hair red, and although the wound on its body is no longer bleeding, it is still bloody, and from the wound, it seems that the white tiger's injury was deliberately injured.
When the white tiger saw someone coming, he looked fierce and vicious, and was on guard.
When the little white tiger saw it, he roared at the white tiger a few times, and then walked up to it, and when the white tiger heard the voice of the little white tiger, he actually changed his attitude, no longer like just now, but became docile.
Seeing this, Zuo Tingxue hurriedly said, "Jiu'er, you hurry up and go back to get medicine and gauze to heal this white tiger." ”
Jiu'er nodded hurriedly, turned around and left.
Zuo Tingxue saw the little white tiger and the tiger snuggling together, the white tiger's body was a little trembling, and they looked very warm when they snuggled together.
And Zuo Tingxue had already seen that the injured white tiger was a tigress, and the little white tiger seemed to be interested in it.
Zuo Tingxue walked into the little white tiger and whispered: "Susu, how did you find it, why does it have so many injuries on its body?" ”
Zuo Tingxue knows animal language reading, but I don't know why I can't read the meaning of the little white tiger's language before?
At this time, a faint sound came out of the little white tiger's throat, and it was strange that Zuo Tingxue actually understood the little white tiger's language today.
