Chapter 39: The Big Picture
Seeing this, Chunxing was so frightened that she immediately knelt down.
The queen looked down at Chunxing condescendingly, and her hand wearing golden openwork ruby-inlaid armor gently lifted Chunxing's chin.
"No matter which of you masters and servants stole Concubine Tang's things, this palace doesn't want people to spread the news that there is a concubine in the East Palace who is a thief, so it is not good for Yu Donggong and Prince Yu."
"As a palace maid, you have to focus on the overall situation, it is better for you to protect the master, and take care of everything by yourself, and the palace will let Concubine Tang be aggrieved, only punish you alone, do not pursue your master, and let your master be exempt from punishment, what do you think?"
After hearing this, Concubine Tang on the side refused in her heart.
She invited the queen to preside over the overall situation, but she didn't really let the queen focus on the overall situation!
Although she always knew that the queen was a person who paid attention to the big picture, she thought... With the relationship between her and the queen's aunt and nephew, it will definitely be more important than the overall situation.
But since the queen has opened this mouth, even if she is very reluctant in her heart, she has to express her position obediently.
"It's still the queen mother's thoughtfulness, this matter is the concubine's recklessness, then listen to the queen mother, as long as Chunxing confesses, the concubine will only pursue her alone."
"Concubine Tang's words, did you hear them?" The queen let go of Chunxing's chin and sat down again, "You think about it." ”
Chunxing knelt on the ground, pondering the words of the queen and Concubine Tang.
If as long as she confesses her sin, the little lord can be safe, then she is a hundred willing!
So, Chun Xing pulled her lips, "Okay, I'm ......"
"Chunxing, don't admit it." Jiang Shishi stopped Chunxing.
If Chun Xing admits it, not only will she be beaten by the board, but she will have a reputation for stealing in the future, how can she survive in the palace that pays attention to fame?
"If you don't admit it, then drag it out and hit the board until you confess!" The queen ordered in a deep voice.
Suddenly, Chun Xing was escorted by the palace maid and eunuch.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
At this moment, there was the sound of singing and announcing outside.
The next moment, the prince entered the hall, and the concubines saluted the prince.
Pei Xuanling didn't care about the concubines, but saluted the queen at the top.
The queen walked up to the prince and helped him up with her own hands.
She is the stepmother queen, and she treats the prince more amiably.
After Pei Xuanling got up, he seemed to be talking to the queen about his family, "When the queen mother came to the East Palace, the sons don't know. ”
"I just came." The queen pulled the crown prince, and the two sat down at the top, "Concubine Tang said that something happened in the East Palace, and she and Concubine Ruan couldn't make up their minds for a while, and wanted to call the palace to come over and preside over the overall situation." ”
Immediately afterwards, she also told the prince about Concubine Tang's loss.
At the end, she also said: "Although the things were found in Shiyue Pavilion, this palace believes that it was not Jiang Meiren's doing, and is only ready to torture her palace maid!" ”
"Since the box is different, it means that there is a problem." Pei Xuanling listened to the queen's words, and immediately noticed that something was wrong, and sent someone to show him the box.
Soon, Xia Liu presented the powder box to the prince.
After Pei Xuanling took it, his slender fingertips opened the lid of the box and saw that there was some delicate powder inside, shiny.
This reminded her of the makeup that Jiang Meiren wore last time she left the palace, which was so shiny.
Pei Xuanling closed the lid of the box and looked at Concubine Tang, "Gu asked you, when did your brother give you rouge gouache?" ”
"He ordered the palace people to give it to the concubine yesterday." Although Concubine Tang didn't know why the prince asked this, she still replied truthfully.
"Well, Lone told you, as early as a few days ago, Lone saw this powder box in Jiang Meiren's house, and just the day before, when Jiang Meiren and Lone left the palace, they also smeared this glitter on their faces."
