Chapter 13: Concubine Rong
In his previous life, until the death of the emperor's uncle, Xiao Tanji never entered the palace.
Now, I don't know what kind of variables are waiting for her.
If the emperor's uncle was jealous and insisted on killing Xiao Tan and-
Under the stone table, Pei Qinghe's hand slowly tightened.
It's not impossible.
At a certain moment, a cruel idea grew from Pei Qinghe's mind.
If she borrowed the hand of her emperor's uncle, took advantage of Xiao Tan and his fledgling, and wiped him out in the cradle-
She no longer has to worry about Xiao Tan and will oppose her for Gu Beining in the future.
But this thought had only passed through his mind, and it had already sent a chill down Pei Qinghe's back.
No way.
She couldn't have such dangerous thoughts.
Xiao Tanji's deployment has always been meticulous, and in his previous life, unknowingly, half of the people in the court were already his people.
Nowadays, who knows how many pieces he has arranged.
If she makes a mistake and opposes him, I am afraid that she will not be at peace in the future.
He wanted this country, and she just gave it to him.
As long as the princess's mansion can be guaranteed to be undefeated in the troubled times in the future, she has nothing else to ask for.
Pei Qinghe made up her mind, the haze in her heart dissipated, she raised her eyes, and saw Xiao Tan and Zheng staring at her thoughtfully.
After being discovered by her, he looked away unhurriedly.
“……”
How did she feel that she was seen through by him again.
No way.
At this moment, there was a sound of laughter in front of the Zhanghuatai Hall in the distance-
One of the women's voices was particularly sharp, and it was difficult for Pei Qinghe to hear it.
“…… If I fell in love with an assassin and still wanted to kill myself, if I were her, I would have been ashamed to hit the wall, and I would be a man with my tail between my legs in the future, and I would never appear in front of people again, and I would make people laugh at it......"
The referential nature of the words was so obvious that no one dared to take the woman's words.
The woman didn't care, and smiled to herself.
I don't know if it's because her voice is too loud or what, even Xiao Tanji glanced at her lightly.
Pei Qinghe listened to the woman's laughter, and she was not annoyed, she was worried that she couldn't cure Concubine Rong, so someone rushed to calculate it.
It was too late for her to rejoice.
Shen Yunjin was too high-profile, Shen Qiuwan couldn't bear the eyes of the people around her, and gently pulled down Shen Yunjin's sleeve, "Second sister, don't talk about it......"
Shen Yunjin wrinkled his brows and shook her off, "Don't drag me, if you're timid, just stay there." ”
Shen Qiuwan timidly let go of her hand.
Shen Yunjin couldn't stand her, so he simply lowered his voice and told her the truth, "Father said, the princess's mansion is about to come to a catastrophe, without the eldest princess, she Pei Qinghe has no backer, where did she come from to put on a show in front of us." ”
Shen Yunjin thought that if he lowered his voice, others would not be able to hear it, but he didn't know that the palace was full of hidden guards.
Chunyue also has martial arts, and she relayed Shen Yunjin's words to Pei Qinghe word for word.
"Who's that man?" Pei Qinghe asked her.
"It's the second lady of the Shen family, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites."
Ministry of Rites?
It was the Wei king's party.
Is the princess's mansion going to end?
Pei Qinghe was interested, why didn't she know that the princess's mansion was about to end.
To say, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites really raised a good daughter, and he dared to speak openly in this palace.
She observed Shen Yunjin with great interest, and inadvertently noticed Shen Yunjin's small movements of sneaking glances at Xiao Tan from time to time.
Pei Qinghe knew in his heart that he had taken a fancy to Xiao Tan.
-
Shen Yunjin sighed for a while after learning from Shen Qiuhuan that the boy in Xuanyi was most likely the face of the princess's mansion.
She thought that the son must have been robbed into the princess's mansion by Pei Qinghe's mother and daughter, and she must have been very disgusted with Pei Qinghe in her heart, and she denounced Pei Qinghe's mother and daughter in public, which would definitely make him look down on her.
But she shouted at the top of her voice for a long time, and she didn't see him cast a glance at her.
Shen Yunjin was in a hurry, so he saw Pei Qinghe, who was originally sitting in the pavilion, get up and walk slowly in the direction where she was.
And the boy was still in the pavilion, unmoved.
Pei Qinghe walked to the bottom of the steps in the pavilion, and looked at her with a smile for a while from a corner.
After a moment, his expression became fierce, and he shouted: "Where is the hidden guard in the palace?" ”
The county lord of Qinghe has the right to control the hidden guards in the palace at will.
The hidden guards all appeared, "I've seen the county lord." ”
Pei Qinghe instructed them: "Throw this second young lady of the Shen family into the lake for me." ”
The guards were all stunned and looked at each other.
Pei Qinghe's gaze swept over them, "You don't listen to the words of this county lord?" ”
How dare the hidden guard, compared to offending the county lord of Qinghe, a mere Miss Shen family is really nothing.
In the blink of an eye, the hidden guard grabbed Shen Yunjin's arm one by one, and no matter how much Shen Yunjin struggled, it was in vain.
"Let me go! I'm Miss Yan of the Shen family! If you treat me like this, my father won't let you go! ”
Shen Yunjin was very afraid of water, and even more afraid of being embarrassed, so he was so anxious that he began to insult Pei Qinghe.
"Pei Qinghe, why are you so vicious!"
"Pei Qinghe, you are not afraid of the afterlife...... Not! ”
There was a loud bang in the lake, and Pei Qinghe only felt that his ears were quiet instantly.
She ignored the gaze of others and returned to the pavilion.
On the other side, Shen Yunjin's insults were intermittent.
Pei Qinghe was indifferent.
Let's make a fuss, it's good to make a big fuss.
Just as she was thinking about this, she saw a group of people walking over on the palace road in the distance.
The woman at the front looked extremely young, dressed in a palace robe with a phoenix outlined in gold thread. He was draped in a black gauze and embroidered with intricate patterns. Dignified and humble, graceful and luxurious, every smile exudes majesty and bearing that cannot be ignored.
This is the master of the harem of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Concubine Rong.
wears a phoenix seal and a phoenix robe, but she is not named the queen.
Because of this incident, Concubine Rong has been criticized for many years.
Shen Yunjin was still soaking in the lake, Shen Qiuhuan was crying by the lake, the nobles were all around the lake, many people watching the jokes were whispering, and the whole Zhanghua Pavilion was very noisy.
When Concubine Rong saw this picture, her face turned slightly cold, and she asked from a distance: "What's wrong?" ”
When everyone heard this, they were surprised for a moment, and saluted in unison: "See Concubine Rong." ”
Pei Qinghe stood in the pavilion and watched, not moving.
She could feel Concubine Rong not far away sweep past the people present, and her gaze fell on her.
Why look at her?
Naturally, it was because she didn't salute and rejected her face as Concubine Rong.
Pei Qinghe let her see, and after a while, she thought of something, and turned her head to look at Xiao Tanji.
He lowered his eyes and face, immersed in his own world, and sat still.
Pei Qinghe smiled, turned around and raised his voice at Concubine Rong: "Back to Niangniang, Miss Shen said evil words, cursing the princess's mansion in broad daylight, and the county lord just gave her a small punishment. ”
"Oh?" Concubine Rong didn't notice Xiao Tanji, she looked at Shen Yunjin, who was still struggling in the lake, and her tone was unhurried: "There is such a thing?" ”
After saying that, she glanced at her dowry maid, who understood and took a group of people to fish Shen Yunjin out of the lake.
"Naturally," Pei Qinghe replied, "everyone present is a witness. ”
Concubine Rong raised her hand to support her sideburns, her posture was noble, and a smile with deep meaning appeared on her red lips.
She looked at the people present and asked, "I don't know if what the county lord of Qinghe said is true or false?" Which of you can testify on behalf of the Lord of Qinghe? ”
Testify.
Who will testify for Pei Qinghe.
The women present avoided Concubine Rong's gaze one after another.
"Didn't you?" Concubine Rong smiled even deeper, and smiled at Pei Qinghe through the crowd: "County Lord, if there is no one to get a certificate, how can this palace review this matter?" ”
