"Okay, I'll go." She held the puppet in her hand and thought about handing it over to Concubine Shu. Feng Qiuhan suddenly pulled her: "The emperor is here." ”

What the? The emperor is coming? Didn't the little palace maid just say that the emperor had rested?

But the emperor did come.

The eunuch who came to deliver the decree was already standing at the gate of the courtyard and singing loudly inside: "The emperor has arrived, and the lady concubine is coming!" ”

Then came the sound of chaotic and noisy footsteps.

Xia Ye's heart jumped, what should I do? At this point, it's too late to get rid of the puppet.

Her palms were sweaty.

Feng Qiuhan knew it like her, but at this time, there was nothing he could do, he tugged Xia Ye without a trace, and said softly, "Give me that." ”

Of course, it's a puppet, but the emperor and they are all here, is there a way for Feng Qiuhan to deal with it? If you can't deal with it, won't you have to deal with him too?

Without thinking, she put the puppet back in the ground, buried it again, and stepped on it a few more times, while she stood on it and stole the bell.

"Eh!" Feng Qiuhan wanted to say something, but the emperor had already led a group of people in.

Except for Princess Rong Shi, who had just been broken by archery, the emperor's harem was basically all here, and Princess Rong Shan stood by the emperor's side, replacing the position where Concubine Shu usually stood.

There was an inexplicable expression on her face, as if she was smiling, her eyes were locked directly on Xia Ye, and she seemed to raise her eyebrows at Xia Ye, and her red lips moved and hooked. There seems to be a ...... in the peach blossom-like eyes Ruthless killing intent?

Does Rong Shan really hate her to the core? Xia Ye sneered, even if she let the horse come, she Xia Ye had come over all her life, and she was still afraid of this princess of the deep palace?

。 As soon as she came out and saw the people in the courtyard, she was taken aback, and immediately regained her warm and earnest expression and knelt down to greet her: "The emperor is auspicious." I don't know ...... the emperor visiting late at night? ”

Concubine Niangniang probably didn't expect that the emperor, who had just slept down, would actually come to her courtyard, and it was not a person, it was a group of people.

At this point, I knew with my toes that the emperor was not here to make love to her. I just don't know what's going on.

Xia Ye wanted to say it, but she couldn't say it at this time.

The emperor's eyes had already swept sharply: "Give me a search!" ”

I didn't say much nonsense, and just ordered a search.

A cadre of people knelt on the ground with an inexplicable expression, but they didn't dare to ask more.

Concubine Shu was also stunned, but she still had the courage to ask: "Dare to ask the emperor...... Is something wrong? ”

The emperor glared at her, his cloudy eyes were full of anger and viciousness, and the words almost popped out of the root of his teeth: "I thought that you were different from those vulgar fans in the harem, but I didn't expect you to just hide deeper than them!" ”

Concubine Shu looked up, and there was no longer a smile on her cold and elegant smile. "The concubines are stupid and don't understand, so please ask the emperor to make it clear."

The emperor sneered: "The queen is terminally ill thanks to you, and the imperial doctor said that if you can't find the root of the disease tonight, your life will be in danger." ”

Concubine Shu was stunned: "But what does this have to do with me?" ”

Rong Shan sneered: "You'll know what it has to do with you later!" ”

The courtyard was soon turned upside down, and dozens of maids and eunuchs turned over all the places, turning the house into a mess and couldn't bear to look at it directly. Concubine Shu was slightly moved and gritted her teeth and forbearance at the beginning, but now she has gradually calmed down, and there is only no waves left on her face.

After the eunuchs and maids searched it, they all came to report: "Your Majesty, no suspicious objects were found." ”

The emperor groaned, his expression a little loose. Rong Shan, who was standing beside him, immediately said, "Father, my mother, she!" ”

The emperor was furious: "Dig three feet into the ground!" Give me another search! ”

Soon someone brought several shovels and began to dig up the soil in the yard. The entire courtyard had been turned over almost all the earth, and only the place where the men had landed remained untouched.

Xia Ye stepped on the loose soil under the bottom without a trace, but he didn't move the place, and he only felt that the soles of his feet were hot. Feng Qiuhan was closer to her.

Rong Shan's eyes deepened, staring at Xia Ye and Feng Qiuhan, and gritted her teeth: "Father, the place where they are standing hasn't been dug yet." ”

The emperor's eyebrows frowned slightly, Rong Shan had already stepped forward to push Xia Ye and Feng Qiuhan away, and deliberately pushed them between the two, forcing the two to stand apart, and she said a little angrily: "Come on, dig here for me!" ”

A eunuch immediately stood up and took a shovel to start, but Rong Shan snatched it away: "I'll dig it!" ”

Stick two shovels in hard...... Xia Ye's heart rose to his throat.

When I went down with another spade, I found something with a pestle...... "Here, I found it!" Rong Shan threw the shovel, squatted down and gouged twice with her hands, and pulled out a palm-sized puppet doll from the soil.

Natsuha couldn't bear to look at it directly, and turned her face away and covered her eyes with her hands.

Feng Qiuhan's face also sank.

Concubine Shu's face turned even pale, and she exclaimed, "Isn't that my puppet?" ”

"Aha, Lady, did you admit that this was your puppet?" Rong Shan was proud and vicious.

Concubine Shu's face turned pale, this puppet was carved for her by her brother in her childhood, she had left it for several years, and at this moment it was brought back to her by Xia Ye, and she was categorically unwilling to lose it again.

So she nodded firmly, "Yes, you give it back to me...... "Concubine Shu got up from the ground and was about to grab the puppet.

Rong Shan dodged faster than her, and sneered: "Concubine Niangniang, I really can't see that your heart is so vicious!" He actually framed my mother by such a depraving method! ”

Concubine Shu was stunned: "I was wronged!" I didn't do anything! That's my puppet, give it back to me! ”

"Give it back to you? Don't worry, let's see what you've done! Rong Shan put the puppet in the palm of her hand and looked at it, and handed it to the emperor with a sneer: "Father, this woman you have always loved wrote my mother's birthday here, and pricked it with a silver needle!" …… My queen mother is so pitiful...... Woohoo......"

The emperor was stimulated by Rong Shan, glanced at the puppet, and shouted coldly: "Concubine Shu, what else do you have to say?" ”

Concubine Shu was confused: "The concubine doesn't know ......"

"I don't know, it's over? Did the puppet crawl into the dirt on its own? Angry, he stepped forward and slapped Concubine Shu hard, and scolded: "Slut! Concubine Shu was slapped in the face vigorously, and her body was unstable and fell to the ground all of a sudden.

The emperor was particularly angry, and he stepped forward and was about to kick it, but Xia Ye suddenly rushed out of the stab and pulled away from Concubine Shu.

She smiled at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, do we have something to say?" You see that killing people is not too much, if there is really anything wrong with Concubine Shu, you can just make a holy decree to punish the crime, why bother to make so much effort and be careful of hurting your body. ”
