Chapter 017: Turning Danger into Disaster
Xiao Qi slowly stood up, and after saluting respectfully, he said in a calm tone: "Slave Xiao Qi, originally a tea slave by the queen's mother's side, the queen mother's compassion for the beauty of the king's hard work, so she sent the slave maid to Fengtian Pavilion to serve, in order to show the queen's care for the beauty of the mother." ”
"What ......about the queen's reward," the chief guard gritted his teeth.
"If it is the mind, it cannot be moved. The slave maid came with the instructions of the queen mother, the Lantern Festival sacrificed to the ancestors, and the queen mother specially rewarded, and this matter was known to the whole palace. Mei Ji Niangniang is also very grateful to the queen Niangniang, this was originally a good story. But if the adults have the wrong idea and ruin this heart......"
Xiao Qi automatically ignored the anger that the chief guard had endured to the limit and continued.
"I know, it is said that the chief guard was just arresting the gangsters who trespassed into the palace, and by the way, he found the slave maid, and felt that the slave maid was clever and good-looking, and felt that Mei Ji Niangniang was easy to talk, everything was just a misunderstanding. If you don't know, I'm afraid you'll think that Mei Ji Niangniang personally rewarded it to adults. The queen's favorite tea slave, as soon as she entered Fengtian Pavilion with her front foot, she was rewarded with her back foot. I'm afraid that there will be an uproar in this palace again. ”
The head of the guard's eyes flickered for a moment, as if he was thinking about Xiao Qi's words.
He didn't care about implicating Mei Ji, but if it really caused trouble, it would be troublesome to be interrogated at that time. Moreover, even if everyone thought it was just a misunderstanding, when he arrested the gangsters who broke into the palace, he left his post without permission to play with a female slave, which was enough for him to eat several boards.
Come to think of it, it's not a good deal.
"My lord saw that this treasury was very simple, but it was Mei Ji Niangniang who had the heart to give the slave and maid to live alone. Mei Ji Niang respects the queen Niangniang, my lord, and I should also think about Mei Ji Niangniang. ”
was taught a lesson by a small slave, and in front of his subordinates, the head of the guard felt a little disgraced, but what she said was reasonable, and the head of the guard also knew that this was not the time to talk to her.
The female slave of Fengtian Pavilion, he has also touched a lot, since he knows that she is from Fengtian Pavilion, he doesn't care about this moment, there will be a chance to clean up in the future.
Thinking like this, the chief guard said slowly, "As the chief of the guard, I naturally give priority to catching assassins. You little slave, you are so convincing that you are not allowed to search in front of the chief of the guard, are you really hiding a villain? Do you know that it is a capital crime to hide a villain, and even if you are the queen's mother, she will not shield you. ”
The man in black suddenly became nervous.
You must know that this four-walled and airy treasury can be said to be clear at a glance, as long as the guards search a little, they will definitely find him. At that time, he will not only be arrested, but also implicate the little slave in front of him.
He didn't want to do anything that would harm people's lives.
Xiao Qi put his hands behind his back and signaled him not to act rashly.
"Such a crime, the slave and maid naturally can't afford it, the queen is an example of the harem, and she will not break the rules of the palace and violate the law of the country for this master-servant friendship. ”
Xiao Qi's tone was calm, not at all frightened by the threat of the head of the guard.
"However, if the adults can consider the consequences, they will definitely think that Fengtian Pavilion has never had a gangster trespass since Mei Ji Niangniang moved in, how could it be that the queen and the queen mother rewarded the slave maid here, and there was it. Mei Ji said that this room belonged to the slave and maid alone, and within a few hours, an assassin who had trespassed on the palace was found here......"
"I can't find it, it's Mei Ji Niangniang who is disrespectful to the queen mother, not only disappointing the queen's good intentions, but also trying to put the assassin's crime on the queen mother's head. If it is found, it will be even more difficult to do, and then the king will definitely ask questions, how can the adults explain it. ”
The captain of the guard clenched his fists.
He didn't have the guts to be disrespectful to the queen.
Unlike ordinary couples, Queen Duan is the right-hand man of the king, and she sacrificed her life to save the lives of the king and the queen mother many years ago, which is why she became the queen today.
Now, the queen has made a lot of contributions to the prosperity of the country. Although the king has a shallow love for the queen, this respect can be compared with the queen mother.
If he offends the queen's mother, isn't he looking for death?
He also doesn't have the guts to be disrespectful to Miki.
Although she looks down on Mei Ji in her heart, Mei Ji is the most favored woman in the palace after all, and her pillow wind is worth thousands of troops.
It is impossible for him to be stupid enough to risk his life and glory to offend two dignitaries in order to occupy this good-looking slave girl.
He can't give the queen a charge of assassinating Mei Ji, and he can't let Mei Ji bear the crime of disrespecting the queen in vain.
Neither is the best choice.
Chun Yumin, who was standing on the side, quietly looked at Xiao Qi.
She was thin, but there was an indescribable brilliance in her eyes that did not admit defeat. Ordinary slave girls were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy when they encountered the guards searching the palace, but she was surrounded by the guards, but she could still handle things calmly, and let the chief guard compromise in a few words.
After Chun Yumin came to Duanguo, he could be regarded as having seen many slaves.
It's the first time I've encountered something like Xiao Qi.
The chief guard was erected there, and he didn't know how to advance or retreat for a while, but Chun Yumin gave him steps.
"Actually, the arrest of the gangster is also for the safety of Mei Ji Niangniang. If at this time, a large number of elite guards are scattered in this slave house, and the safety of Mei Ji Niangniang is ignored, in case the villain hurts Niangniang, it will be the sin of all of us. It's just that I can't find the villain, and I protect my mother's thoughtfulness, which is also a credit to adults. ”
Chun Yumin's words are very pertinent.
The chief guard felt that it was reasonable, so he no longer had the intention of entanglement with Xiao Qi.
"Yes, it has been confirmed that there are no bad people coming in and out here, it is important to protect the mother, you should go to the outside of the mother's dormitory to guard now, and you are not allowed to enter and exit at will. ”
"Yes!"
His guards immediately collected their swords and replied.
The chief guard turned around and bowed to Chun Yumin: "In the inner courtyard of the deep palace, it is inconvenient for men to enter and exit. There is also Mama Lao to convey to Mei Ji Niangniang on her behalf, detailing today's situation. The stakes are very high, and before there is an order from the king, I will have to harass the beauty for a few hours. ”
"This is natural, and the old slave immediately went to tell him. ”
The chief guard looked at Xiao Qi, snorted coldly and said, "You little slave, you have sharp teeth, I hope you are really as important as you say, and you will not disappoint the queen's good intentions." ”
Xiao Qi knelt on the ground humbly and saluted respectfully.
"Slaves and maids obey the teachings of your lords. ”
Chun Yumin turned his head, frowned slightly, and glared at Xiao Qi dissatisfied.
This is the first meeting between her and Xiao Qi, and it is also a very thrilling one.
She is bent on stability, and it is not a good thing to have such a slave girl under her hands.
It seems that in the future, we have to focus on guarding against Xiao Qi, lest she have another incident and affect the entire slave.
