Wen Xian didn't wait for the Queen Mother to speak, stepped forward and took the magnolia ointment held by Mu Lan in the palm of his hand, and silently served it in front of the Queen Mother.

The long eyelashes flickered, and he said with a look of expectation: "Imperial grandmother, Mu Lan is also out of kindness. Please also ask the Imperial Grandmother to punish her lightly in order to cure your foot disease! ”

The Queen Mother's deep eyes slowly moved from Mu Lan's shoulders to Wen Xian's mellow face, and said leisurely: "The mourning family is not an unreasonable person, so she naturally understands her intentions. ”

"It's just that if the mourning family is not held accountable this time, and the next time it is not guaranteed, who else will use the banner of the mourning family, regardless of etiquette, righteousness and shame, rules and decency, what to say, what to do, and usurp the etiquette and law without knowing it."

After that, he ignored the magnolia flower paste handed over by Wen Xian, raised a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, and said to the person who was embarrassed: "Concubine Ping, if you were the one who made this golden duck palm today, what would you do?" ”

Concubine Ping, who had just provoked the conversation, was like everyone else at this time, waiting for the queen mother to leave without saying a word, and the little palace maid who was kneeling in front of her.

At this time, she didn't expect the Queen Mother to change her words and throw a hot mountain stick towards her.

How can this question be so easy to answer?

is reasonable, if you echo and say, you will act like the little palace maid, wouldn't that be a slap in the face in public?

If you say that you can't do it like the little palace maid, you will fall into a situation of disloyalty and unfilial piety in public......

Not to mention anything else, the emperor was sitting on the side of the Queen Mother with a gloomy face at this time.

Even if the queen mother didn't say anything, how could the emperor tolerate any concubine, including the queen, to be a little disrespectful and unfilial to his emperor?

No, no, no.

This question, how to answer, is all one word.

Wrong.

The mistake is that it should not be provoked by people in front of him, he remembered his deceased sister and acted emotionally, after revealing the mystery hidden in the golden duck's palm in advance, he impulsively promised that people should be in harmony with the outside, and used this reason to send an army to the queen mother.

Who would have thought that this little palace maid would be able to change so quickly after the magnolia flower piece was stolen.

I didn't know where to find some magnolia flower pieces, and boiled three bottles of magnolia flower paste for the Queen Mother overnight, as a life-saving straw for today's confrontation in court.

In front of the public, in the face of the interrogation of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, he was able to answer so generously and without leakage, which instantly reversed everyone's opinions.

At the beginning, the man wanted to borrow his own knife to kill the little palace maid in front of him, and by the way, he ruined the majesty of the queen mother.

Thinking of this, the gleam in Concubine Ping's eyes faded, and the whole person was speechless, and in front of everyone, she looked more or less embarrassed.

Everyone looked at Concubine Ping, whose face was red and white for a while, and then looked at the little palace maid who was silent at this time, and then looked at the queen mother who had already made a decision, and guessed a little unusual in their hearts.

The Queen Mother saw Concubine Ping's appearance of being a thief, and said disdainfully: "That's it." Don't be you. The mourning family only asks you one sentence, what do you think, how should the mourning family deal with this little palace maid? ”

Concubine Ping looked like a thief, wishing she had left the focus of everyone's attention earlier, and said, "Erchen thinks...... This little palace maid is also filial to the Queen Mother, and she also asks the Queen Mother to ...... Do not reprimand. ”

After hearing this, the Queen Mother looked at Concubine Ping and said sarcastically: "Don't punish a good one." ”

Then, he turned to the crowd: "You must be very clear, the mourning family has always loved and hated things in this life. However, today the mourning family is very happy to be with everyone, and I don't want to bother with it. It's better to let the emperor deal with this matter on behalf of the mourning family! ”

After that, he looked sideways at Emperor Kangxi and smiled silently.

Everyone sighed in their hearts, although the queen mother is old, her thinking is still so clear, she is still decisive in handling things, and her majesty is really not reduced back then.

Emperor Kangxi had a gloomy face, obviously very displeased, and he couldn't say if he had endured the scene in front of him for too long.

At this time, the cold eyes flashed, swept over the people in front of him, stopped in front of Concubine Ping, and said unhappily: "Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and it is a good day for the Queen Mother to hold a banquet to entertain the big guys." Not to mention the slight difference in the taste of a dish, even if I eat a grain of sand in the rice, I will swallow it silently. will definitely not make a big fuss, because such trivial things can easily sweep away the happiness of the Queen Mother and the joy of the big guys. ”

"Concubine Ping, are you guilty?"

Concubine Naping was not allowed to be loved by the emperor in the palace, all because she was the sister of the former queen, and she was repeatedly cared for by the emperor in the harem.

At this time, Concubine Ping heard an unprecedented reprimand from Emperor Kangxi, whom she had not seen for a long time, and her frightened legs immediately weakened, and she knelt on the ground with a plop and said: "Your Majesty, the courtiers have already confessed their guilt." ”

Seeing Concubine Ping's embarrassed appearance, the emperor thought of the first queen's spirit in the sky, and couldn't bear to be harsh, so he only straightened his face and said coldly: "Concubine Ping, today I will not dispose of you for the time being in the face of the Queen Mother." But from now on, you need to think about it behind closed doors, be grounded for a month, and wake up well, and today you are in front of the Queen Mother, and you have usurped the mistakes in your words and deeds. Alright, get on your knees! ”

Concubine Ping was sweating slightly, and after respectfully kowtowing to the Queen Mother and the Emperor to thank her, she left with a sad face.

When Princess Wen Xian saw Concubine Ping leaving, she said to Emperor Kangxi with a ball of joy on her face: "Huang Ama, didn't you agree just now to exchange this little palace maid for her son?" So, how this little palace maid is released, can it be up to the sons to decide? ”

Emperor Kangxi Yu Guang felt the meaning of the Queen Mother's gaze, glanced at Wen Xian slightly, and said, "It's okay." Since I have already promised you just now, now this palace maid Mu Lan, how to deal with it, you can see for yourself. ”

"Slow."

Before Wen Xian could thank him, he heard Huang Amma's words and was cut off by the imperial grandmother on the side.

Mu Lan, who was kneeling on the ground, originally heard that things had quietly taken a turn for the better, and felt that a boulder above his head had finally landed, but he was also shocked by the sound of "slow" in front of him, and was secretly under a robe sleeve, and his ten fingers were gently embedded in his skin.

"Mu Lan, look up."

The Queen Mother in front of her.

The emperor and Wen Xian couldn't understand the queen mother's intentions for a while, so they had to watch silently from the sidelines.

Mu Lan's knees were already kneeling so painfully, but she didn't dare to show any fatigue.

Just secretly on the sleeve of the robe, he put his hand on the ground hard, so that the whole body knelt up straight, and his eyes moved from the bluestone slab in front of him to the graceful Queen Mother.

A ray of sunlight, from the golden yellow that covered the west building, slightly transmitted to Mu Lan's face, as if he wanted to sweep away the haze in the girl's heart.

Mu Lan greeted the sun, raised a pair of eyelids slightly, and the corners of her mouth bent slightly, quietly waiting for a good news from the Queen Mother.
