Chapter 283: Mistakes (Part 2)
The newly sent jewelry was placed on the table, a pair of mandarin duck and begonia hostas, a pair of gold-inlaid white jade, and a pair of gold-inlaid jade step-shakers, and a red gold-inlaid treasure hairpin, and the other one was taken from Sun Baolin's head, all placed in front of Zhou Shanggong.
She stepped forward to check it, frowned when she picked up the pair of gold hairpins, looked at it for a while and put it down, and then picked up other jewelry and weighed it for a long time, and finally got up: "Niangniang, these pieces of jewelry are not right." ”
The queen of heaven took a bite of the tea soup that Gu Mingzhu had poured out, was stunned for a moment, turned his face to look at Gu Mingzhu, and then spoke: "What?" ”
Zhou Shanggong picked up the red gold inlaid treasure hairpin and said: "Palace jewelry has always been regulated, such a red gold hairpin should weigh one or two or eight dollars, but these hairpins are a lot lighter, there is nothing wrong with the outside, but when you weigh it carefully, it is clear that there is another hidden mystery." ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and knocked the golden hairpin on the desk, only to hear a crisp echo, which was really not as dull as pure gold, and then twisted the hairpin, and soon separated the hairpin from the hairpin, and only glanced at it, and his face became ugly.
It wasn't until the handful of powder was poured out and placed in front of them that everyone could see what was going on, the whole red blonde hairpin was actually hollow inside, and the medicinal powder was hidden in the hairpin, no wonder there was no clue outside, and no one thought that these gold and silver jewelry would hide harmful things.
Just smelled it, the queen of heaven waved her hand to let people take it away, the smell is not difficult to distinguish, it is a mixture of fine musk and cinnabar, the most beneficial to break the fetus, and poison, these private things are expressly forbidden in the palace, as long as they are privately possessed, it is a felony, and they can't be used to harm people.
The queen's face became more and more gloomy as the jewelry was confiscated, she finally stood up and looked at Zhou Shanggong: "This is sent by your Shanggong Bureau, you should first find out for yourself, who did this trick and murder the emperor's heir, and who instructed me, tomorrow you will give me an explanation, if there is any deception and not report, I can't be merciful!" ”
Zhou Shanggong's face was blue, and he took the female official to the ground: "The minister obeys the edict, he will definitely investigate and understand it thoroughly, and he will not dare to make a mistake." ”
Concubine De also got up busily, choked up and said: "The concubine asked the mother to punish her, and the concubine took charge of the inner palace, but she never noticed such a thing, after all, it was a dereliction of duty." ”
The queen of heaven glanced at her, and her eyes were cold: "You have been taking care of the Chongyang Palace banquet for a long time, so let's rest for a few days, and then talk about it when this matter is clarified." ”
As she spoke, she turned her head and said to Sun Baolin: "You take good care of your body first, and I will let them give you an explanation for this matter." ”
Sun Baolin stared at the plate of jewelry, she was already sad, she had been taking precautions all these days, but she didn't expect that the harmful thing was in these dazzling and luxurious jewelry, she also wore it on her head every day to show her love and identity, but she didn't expect to be killed like this.
She choked up and bowed down to the queen of heaven to thank her, but her heart was sour, how long can the saint love her without a child, the most important thing in this palace is a young and beautiful newcomer, is she going to fall out of favor?
took Xu Siyan and Gu Mingzhu out of the Chengxiang Palace and got into the palace car, the queen closed her eyes tiredly, and slowly opened them for a long time, but she looked at Gu Mingzhu with a smile: "Mingzhu, good boy, I scared you today." ”
Gu Mingzhu hurriedly bowed and said: "The courtiers are not afraid, the mother is aware of everything, and she will definitely be fine." ”
The queen of heaven smiled: "I didn't expect this to happen, this palace has been too peaceful for a long time, and even I was careless." ”
Her gaze slowly fell on the palace walls outside the palace car: "I'm afraid I've been planning for a long time." ”
Otherwise, there would not be those specially made jewelry filled with medicinal powder, and they would not have been sent into the Chengxiang Hall by the hand of the Shanggong Bureau, which could not be done without deliberate planning for a long time.
She looked at Gu Mingzhu again: "What do you think?" ”
Gu Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, lowered her head and said, "The courtiers are dull and don't dare to speculate. It's just that I feel that Zhou Shanggong and all the female officials of the Shanggong Bureau are thoughtful, but that person is so cunning that he can mix those harmful things into the palace jewelry and quietly send them to the Chengxiang Palace, which is really worrying and frightening when I think about it. ”
After she finished speaking, she moved her body a little uneasily: "I don't know if I will do it to other objects, but this is just my confused mind, and I hope that Niangniang will not blame." ”
After she said this, the queen's face couldn't help but change, and she nodded after a while: "It's not confusion, it's that you think carefully, but it reminds me." ”
She looked at Xu Siyan and said: "Over the years, I have become more and more lenient with the Shanggong Bureau, and they have become emboldened, forgetting that it was time to clean up." ”
The words were very calm and gentle, but it made Xu Siyan's face change slightly, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, the minister will arrange it immediately." ”
The queen of heaven nodded, and pulled Gu Mingzhu with a smile: "Today, you are also tired all day, I am afraid that my body will be unbearable, go back to the Qianqiu Hall for a while, and come to my side tomorrow, I still have things to tell you to do." ”
Gu Mingzhu's heart tightened, and she owed.
The palace carriage stopped in front of the Qianqiu Palace, let her get out of the carriage, and then slowly drove towards the Ganlu Palace.
Looking at Gu Mingzhu, who was walking towards the Qianqiu Hall with Xiaokui, Xu Siyan was a little stunned, but after all, he couldn't help it, and said softly: "Niangniang, the county lord has only been in the palace for a short time, and I'm afraid that I will be ...... for a while."
The queen closed her eyes, and her voice was a little weak: "I originally wanted her to go through the experience again, beat her and take her with me again, but now the situation is urgent, and there is no time to wait." ”
"Fortunately, she is a smart person, whether it is the matter of that sachet or the few words just now, she has done a good job, and she is a smart person who knows how to advance and retreat."
Xu Siyan nodded slightly, but frowned and said: "It's just that the crown prince has already startled the horse, and His Royal Highness King Chen Liuwang is involved, and now there is Sun Baolin's matter, I am afraid that the saint will ......."
When the queen heard this, her face was a little ugly: "Tell me to go down, let people take care of Sun Baolin, all things don't have to be hidden, and report to the saint truthfully." ”
At this time, if there is any more concealment, I am afraid that the saint will be even more angry, and will blame all the things about Sun Baolin's miscarriage on her, the queen of heaven, and the original shallow relationship between husband and wife will be gone, and the rest can only be a power struggle.
She didn't want that, she didn't want to go that far unless she had to.
Obviously they have been husband and wife for many years, and they should be affectionate and supportive, but how did they get to this point, and there seems to be no ordinary affection between father and son and husband in the world, only hidden scheming and endless suspicion.
Is there really a time when you will live or die? The queen of heaven felt bitter in her heart, and her fingers on the soft pillow couldn't help but tighten, clutching the uneven embroidered satin and never letting go.
Even if she gained power and wealth, but she lost the emperor's heart, she was also a loser, and she became a loser in this way.
