Chapter 19: The Queen's Killing
Concubine Jing stopped at the point, and still smiled coquettishly: "Look at what the county lord said, what kind of jokes are not jokes." ”
At this moment, someone from the family came to say goodbye, and Xiao Nian took the opportunity to take Xie Linlang and Xie Yanwan into the seat, but there was a bit of chill in those eyes.
This Concubine Jing and the queen are in the same group, and they deliberately look at her jokes!
From beginning to end, Xie Yanwan didn't say a word, but remembered the expressions of these people who fell on him clearly.
The hall was extremely lively, and from time to time people came to talk to Xiao Nian, and the position of the Xie family was particularly enthusiastic.
Except for Xie Yanwan.
Her identity is well known to everyone here, and it is one thing to laugh at her in her heart, but no one wants to offend Xiao Nian on the surface.
So Xie Yanwan is extremely deserted here.
In this regard, Xie Yan is very happy, her thoughts are only the same now, that is, revenge, other than that, she doesn't care about everything.
However, Xie Yanwan wanted to stay away from right and wrong, but Fei was determined to drag her into the water.
"The girl of the Xie family, come to the side of the palace."
Hearing the queen's summons, Xie Yanwan suddenly looked a little inexplicable, but he could only stand up obediently, walked to the queen and saluted: "Say hello to the queen." ”
"Get up, look at this girl, it's painful to be born, and this palace is tight."
Queen Zhou's face was kind, but Xie Yanwan was vigilant in her heart.
"The mother praised it falsely, and the courtiers can't afford it."
Xie Yanwan's face was obedient, which made the queen's expression more and more interested. She glanced at Xie Yanwan a few times, grabbed her hand and said: "There are no daughters under the knees of this palace, I didn't think it in the past, but when I saw you today, I regretted it very much, how could Ye'er not be a girl." ”
As soon as she said this, not only Xie Yanwan's heart was alarmed, but even the young ladies of the family who were present also threw hostile glances at Xie Yanwan.
What the queen said was particularly meaningful, there were so many noble girls present, but she fell in love with Xie Yanwan, doesn't it mean that they are not as good as Xie Yanwan!
And the deeper reason makes them a little uneasy. praised Xie Yan late like this, could it be that the queen intended to let her enter the East Palace?
This is not good news.
Feeling the unkind eyes cast behind him, what else did Xie Yanwan not understand? The queen is praising and killing, clearly praising herself, and unconsciously setting up many enemies for her.
She has no grievances with the queen, what does the queen want to do?
"Niangniang is like this, the courtiers are really scared."
Xie Yanwan lowered his head more and more, but when he inadvertently looked at the queen, he saw the disdain and temptation in her expression.
Test?
Xie Yanwan's Lingtai was instantly clear, and he understood a little.
"Sister, it's a shame that the prince is not here, otherwise I will have to complain about you, where is there a mother who dislikes her son?"
Concubine Jing cleverly rounded back these words, looked at Xie Yanwan and said, "But this girl is really good color, and we are all old." ”
Hearing this, Xie Yan answered in the evening: "The mother is in full bloom, and the courtiers are ashamed of themselves. ”
"This little mouth is so sweet."
Concubine Jing covered her mouth and snickered, but she didn't speak.
The queen seemed to be a little tired, waved her hand and smiled: "It's still early at this time, and the palace doesn't restrict you, the plum blossoms in the imperial garden are blooming just right, you can go and play freely, and come back before the palace banquet begins." ”
With the queen's words, Xie Yanwan breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to go back to sitting.
I didn't want her to sit down before she was stopped by a woman.
"Miss Xie, let's go to the Imperial Garden to see Lamei together."
Xie Yanwan raised his eyes and recognized that this woman was the one who was laughing with Xie Linlang just now, and it seemed to be the daughter of Lin Shilang's family, called Lin Yan.
As soon as she said this, Xie Linlang behind her also said unusually: "Yes, eldest sister doesn't go out on weekdays, but she has to go shopping today." ”
When she said this, Xie Linlang seemed to be standing behind her on purpose, just forming an encirclement around Xie Yanwan.
And the queen on the throne, although she was talking to the other ladies of the family, her eyes looked at her as if she was nothing.
The harem is a place to eat people, if Xie Yanwan can't even deal with these little girls, then she is not worthy of standing by the prince's side.
Feeling the gaze behind her, Xie Yanwan looked at the hostility and provocation in the eyes of these women again, she pinched her palm, and said with a smile: "Since the second sister said it, then let's go over." ”
Seeing her go out with a group of people respectfully, the queen's hand hanging down her sleeve waved without a trace, and the palace maid behind her quietly retreated.
Today is the twentieth month of the lunar month, in the cold winter weather, although there is the sun in the sky, but it can't block the thin and cold air around it, even when breathing, it is a little unbearable.
But those women were particularly interested, dragging Xie Yanwan's hand and taking her around, but Xie Yanwan knew that the current route of the few of them was getting more and more deviated.
She echoed and smiled, but she was muttering in her heart, the queen's move is really ruthless, if she really has no power to restrain the chicken, I am afraid that she will be killed by these noble goddesses unknowingly.
Sure enough, in this harem, human life is the least valuable thing.
After she sighed, she saw that Lin Yan, who was the leader, had stopped, and said with a smile: "Miss Xie, do you see that plum blossom well?" ”
Xie Yanwan followed her gaze and saw the plum tree blooming in the cold wind. The opening is exceptionally good, but the location is a little off, one step away, is the lake.
The lake has not yet frozen, and there are dozens of koi fish in it, which are swinging their tails freely, which looks particularly pleasing to the eye in this winter weather.
"Well, it's very good."
Xie Yanwan retracted his gaze and replied as if he didn't know.
"Since it's good, then bother the eldest sister to help us pick a bunch of cold plums and give it to the queen?"
It was Xie Linlang who spoke.
Seeing the gloom in her eyes, Xie Yanwan pretended to shrink her body and hesitated: "It's not proper, it's next to the lake, it's not very safe." ”
Before she finished speaking, Lin Yan's attendant Liu Jing'er snorted and said, "So, do you look down on the queen?" I can't imagine that you are such a person, and you dare to disrespect the queen! ”
Seeing that these young ladies of the family were aggressive, Xie Yanwan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I don't mean that, why don't we go over together?" ”
What she said was exactly what those people meant. Let's go over together and push her into the lake! When the time came, a few of them said a word, so that Xie Yanwan had nowhere to reason.
It's just that their plans are excellent, but there is always some distance between the ideal and the reality.
After walking to the lake, Xie Yanwan made a gesture to reach out and pull the branch of Lamei, and said nervously while looking back: "You have to take care of me, I won't climb a tree." ”
"Got it, got it."
The young ladies responded impatiently, and Liu Jing'er took two steps first, reaching out to push Xie Yanwan.
But he didn't want to, Xie Yanwan's foot kicked back at this time, and then screamed, and leaned back.
Seeing that she was about to fall, the ladies of the family suddenly showed a smile, but before the smile was fully revealed, they saw that Liu Jing'er was actually dragged by Xie Yanwan and became Xie Yanwan's back.
"Ahh
Liu Jing'er's cry was particularly miserable, and Xie Yanwan's entire body pressed on her body, almost pressing out her internal organs.
She kept waving her hand, trying to push Xie Yanwan away, but she couldn't use any strength at all, so she could only pat Xie Yanwan's back weakly.
And Xie Yanwan seemed to have just reacted at this time, stood up at a loss and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Liu, are you okay?" ”
It's no wonder it's okay!
Liu Jing'er was helped up from the ground, but she didn't even have the strength to stand, she couldn't stop panting against the trunk of the tree, and she only felt that it hurt everywhere in her body.
Seeing this, Lin Yan glared at Xie Yanwan and said coldly: "Miss Xie, you beat her like this, just say I'm sorry It's too light, right?" ”
"I, I didn't hit her, I am the ......"
She tried hard to explain, but these people glanced at each other, and the four women surrounded Xie Yanwan in the middle.
"Xie Yanwan, Miss Liu was killed so badly by you, why don't you just go down and take a shower as an apology?"
As soon as Xie Linlang's words came out, Liu Jing'er, who was coughing badly, suddenly nodded and gasped: "Okay, I agree!" ”
Seeing a few of them like this, Xie Yanwan sneered in his heart, this is the so-called noble girl raised by the big family, what is the difference between the shrews in the market?
No, there is still a difference, that is, they are more vicious, and they treat human life as a mustard, and they can trample on and bully at will!
"Why are you doing this to me? Have I ever sinned against you? ”
Xie Yanwan's show of weakness made several of them even more proud. Xie Linlang took a step forward, grabbed her shirt and said, "Xie Yanwan, are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid?" The county lord has warned you a long time ago not to get close to the prince's brother, since you don't listen, then I have to let you know what will happen if you get close to him! ”
As soon as she said this, the expressions of several other people also became ugly. You must know that marrying the prince is their common dream, but now, this eldest lady of the Xie family, who is not even as good as her subordinates, has been appreciated by the queen before them, and with this, they have to ruin Xie Yanwan!
"That's it, Xie Yanwan, do you really think that you can turn a sparrow into a phoenix with the identity of the eldest lady of the Xie family? Let me tell you, a sparrow is a sparrow, and if you want to fly on the branch and become a phoenix, it is wishful thinking! ”
It has to be said that a woman's jealousy is terrible.
Several women in the anger blocked Xie Yanwan in the middle, as if they were about to tear her apart.
Xie Yanwan's eyes were cold, she retracted her supple countenance, and said lightly: "You want to push me into the water?" Then give it a try. ”
The coldness in her eyes was particularly obvious, and it scared Lin Yan, who was closest to her, to take a step back.
Then, Lin Yan reacted again, stood forward again, and said coldly: "Wait until I ruin your face, see what capital you have to show off your might!" ”
