Chapter 692: A husband can only be called a wife
Hearing that Concubine He would put all the blame on himself, he felt a little cold in his heart about this and the concubine. Is it really worth it for such a person who has no sense of responsibility and does not treat slaves and maids as adults?
Leng Xue took the scriptures retrieved from the Anning Palace and handed them over to Chu Lixue's hands, Chu Lixue looked at it briefly, hooked her lips and smiled, this scripture has almost seven or eight people's handwriting, which is very close to Chu Lixue's expectations.
"Master, this scripture is copied in a mess, and this is clearly a helper for the concubine." Yi An glanced lightly at the scriptures in Chu Lixue's hand.
In order to copy these scriptures, their masters slept late every day, so that they could write the scriptures before the first emperor's death, but they did not sleep well for several nights. And Concubine He found a helper, and she was simply dissatisfied with the queen's mother.
"If she doesn't find a helper, then how can Hongu trouble her?" Chu Lixue hooked her lips and smiled lightly.
The implication of this is that she has already set a trap and is waiting to jump off with the concubine. Although Yi'an knows that her master is very calm in everything she does, what if Na and the concubine are not fooled? What if she had really copied all the scriptures by herself? Will it still go as smoothly as the Queen Lady hopes?
Thinking of this, Yi An asked the doubts in his heart softly, "Master, if you copy it with the concubine yourself, won't our plan be useless?" ”
"That's not necessarily, Yi'an, you've been following our master for a long time, are you still worried that your master will lose? Even if she copied these scriptures with the concubine herself, then our master would have a way to let her fall in. Leng Xue said with a smile.
Indeed, Leng Xue said well, Chu Lixue's methods, Yi'an is also very clear, and just thinking about it, he heard Chu Lixue say lightly: "You go to Anning Palace with me and bring a few Praetorian Guards." ”
What the? Bring the Praetorian Guard? Is that really necessary? A few of them can be regarded as first-class masters in the rivers and lakes, is it possible that they are still afraid that those palace maids and eunuchs in Anning Palace will not succeed? Or is there any martial arts master hidden in the Anning Palace? That's why the master would consider bringing the Praetorian Guard?
Chu Lixue and her entourage came to Anning Palace, and the concubine was also helped out of the room by Xia Lan, "The queen mother brought so many people to the mourning palace so early in the morning to ask for the guilt?" He Taifei snorted coldly.
"The concubine Niangniang personally promised to copy the scriptures in front of the emperor and all the courtiers, but what the palace sent to retrieve today was a mess of things." After finishing speaking, Chu Li Xueyu raised her hand and threw out the scriptures in her hand. The thick pile of scriptures then fell on the ground and in the water tank beside it.
He didn't have any reaction when he saw this, she had already guessed that the queen would bring someone to ask for the guilt, so she had already thought of a countermeasure.
"Hehe, the mourning family agreed to copy the scriptures, but the queen didn't say that she couldn't find a helper? So, the mourners didn't break the rules of the game, don't you say? The Queen? He said with the concubine shaking the handkerchief in his hand.
Looking at Concubine He's smug appearance, Chu Lixue smiled slightly, "This scripture is going to be burned on the day of the first emperor's birthday, the concubine doesn't pay attention to it so much, and lets others write it for her, it can be seen how disrespectful Concubine He is to the first emperor." ”
What the? Disrespectful to the emperor? This is a hat that is even bigger than disrespecting the current emperor, who let this damn Chu Lixue let her copy so many scriptures? Since it was a scripture to be burned for the first emperor's longevity, why didn't she, the queen, copy it, but let her be an old woman?
"The queen is high and powerful, what do you want to say, there is no way to refute the mourning family, although the first emperor is the husband of the mourning family, but the queen is really the daughter-in-law of the first emperor, this matter of copying scriptures, shouldn't it be the queen's own efforts to show respect for the first emperor?" And the concubine sneered.
She and the concubine are people who have been fighting in the harem for many years, and in the face of Chu Lixue's provocation, she naturally has her own way of coping, but she believes that Chu Lixue is not an ordinary woman, and she will not be defeated so easily.
"What the concubine said, the palace has some different views, the so-called husband, that is for the wife, but for other concubines, the word husband is not very applicable. However, the concubine has a good saying, copying scriptures for the first emperor is what the palace should do, and the palace will prepare the scriptures burned for the first emperor's longevity. Chu Lixue smiled lightly.
Hearing this, Concubine He was slightly stunned, it seems that this Chu Lixue has already been prepared, wait, she said that she will prepare the scriptures for the first emperor's longevity? Today she made herself so ugly, she made her embarrassed in front of the whole world.
Thinking of this, he and the concubine put on a smile, "What the queen mother said is right, after all, the mourning family is the concubine of the first emperor, no matter how you say it, they are all the elders of the queen mother, the queen is so disrespectful to the elders, isn't she afraid that she will be laughed at if she spreads it?" ”
Hmph, and the concubine began to go online and say that she didn't respect her elders? Doesn't she understand that if you want others to respect you, you must first respect others? How can a person who has no dignity at all be respected?
"What can be laughed at in this palace, the concubine Niangniang has to hurry up, before the first emperor's birthday, you must re-copy the scriptures neatly, remember, if the concubine wants to express her sincerity, it is better to complete it herself." After finishing speaking, Chu Lixue turned around and left with the people.
Back in Fengluan Palace, Chu Lixue sat on a chair and drank tea, and the Praetorian Guards who followed her to Anning Palace just now also received a reward of five taels of gold each.
This move made Yi'an a little puzzled, if the queen mother just went to make the concubine ugly, she didn't need to take the Praetorian Guard, she thought that something big would happen, and she was tense throughout the whole process.
"Let the Praetorian Guards secretly guard outside the Fengluan Palace tonight, and the few of you will have to work hard tonight, let's wait for them to throw themselves into the net." Chu Lixue said lightly.
What the? Will someone come to Fengluan Palace tonight to steal something? No, who doesn't know that Fengluan Palace is like an iron wall, besides, the emperor is also going to live here at night, isn't the thief who steals things too stupid? Could it be that the master has not rested well recently, so she thinks too much about herself?
Anyway, as long as it was the master's order, she just did it, and then, Yi'an stepped out of the room and arranged for the Praetorian Guards to go back to rest first, and then come and guard at night.
And they don't need to go back to rest, it is their duty to protect the queen's safety.
In the evening, Nangong Yihan came to Fengluan Palace with heavy steps, the emperor has been busy with court politics for the past few days, and has been sleeping in the side hall of the imperial study.
If it is given to other people, it is estimated that they will think that the emperor has a new favorite, but their master does not have any doubts about all this.
Perhaps, this is the reason why the emperor and their master can be hand in hand until now. Sometimes she also wonders why their master would be relieved of such an excellent man as the emperor, even if the emperor doesn't have that mind, there will inevitably be those delusional women.
What's more, there is such a person living in the palace now. Lin Qiuhua of Anning Palace, but he always thinks about getting the emperor's favor.
That night, Chu Lixue and Nangong Yihan were asleep in bed, and suddenly a black shadow sneaked over the roof and quietly sneaked into the inner courtyard of Fengluan Palace.
Nangong Yihan's martial arts are very high, even if it is such a subtle sound, he can wake up in his sleep, seeing Nangong Yihan open his eyes, planning to get up to catch the thief, Chu Lixue stopped Nangong Yihan and said softly: "Husband, don't worry, it's just a little thief, there are Praetorian Guards outside, Leng Xue and Yi'an inside, you can rest in peace, tomorrow will be early." ”
"So, the lady has already made arrangements?" Nangong Yihan's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Husband, are you trying to make me happy? Could it be that with the ability of the husband, he still can't feel the Praetorian Guards in the outer court? Chu Lixue smiled lightly.
"Naturally, I know, it's just that the husband doesn't know how the lady arranges it." Nangong Yihan supported his head with one hand, leaning on the head of the bed and looking at Chu Lixuedao.
"Husband, don't worry, you'll know later, it's still a little mysterious."
As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of someone being poked in the window paper, and then, I smelled a faint fragrance, Nangong Yihan naturally knew that this was the most indiscriminate means on the rivers and lakes, the incense.
It seems that the other party used the incense to steal things, and he did not steal the treasury of Fengluan Palace, but sneaked into this inner room, naturally for the scriptures.
Chu Lixue had already understood everything, and what she drank for herself and Nangong Yihan before going to bed was a herbal tea that could relieve the incense. Looking at the man in black groping around the room, you knew that he had a purpose.
The thief did not linger in other places, but walked directly to the desk, rummaging for something on the table, seeing this, Chu Lixue hooked her lips and smiled slightly, the person naturally came to find the scriptures she copied, but her scriptures happened to be placed in the box on the table.
In a moment, the thief apparently found what she was looking for, stuffed the wooden box into his arms and quickly left, and when she left the room, Yi'an shouted loudly: "Come on, everyone, catch the thief." ”
The man in black obviously didn't expect that she would be discovered after she succeeded, so she hurriedly ran towards a courtyard wall, but she could fly over the courtyard wall and was caught by the Praetorian guards guarding outside.
No matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free, and when she was twisted in front of Nangong Yihan and Chu Lixue, she still looked arrogant, but when her face towel was torn off, Yi'an and Leng Xue opened their mouths in shock, and they couldn't close for a long time.
