The queen's maid, Chun Tao, soon returned and shook her head in front of the queen.

The crowd that had been quiet began to be restless again, and Quan Feifei stood up again, walked to the center and bowed, and suggested: "Queen Mother, from the perspective of the sons, only this seventh sister and this maid are suspicious of the people present, it is better to take someone to search the seventh sister's bedroom and this maid's house to know who is lying." ”

"Sixth princess, this palace search is not big, it is not small, it is expedient after all, even if you can't find anything in the palace, if this is spread out and let someone with a heart make it a joke of the royal family." The concubine lowered her eyes and pointed out the stakes in it.

Quan Feifei snorted: "How dare you ask Concubine Li, what should this matter be?" ”

Concubine Shu also opened her mouth to help her daughter: "Leaving the concubine, this matter is not just a trivial matter of stealing, tonight's queen mother's birthday banquet, stealing under the eyes of the queen mother, this is contempt for the mother." If it is spread again, the princess seems to have stolen, I am afraid it will make people laugh. Although the search palace is not very decent, it can prove that the invitation is white, and there is a degree of rumors spread by others. ”

"Then Concubine Shu might as well explain to the queen and the ministers, why this birthday banquet picture is still in Jinghe Palace, is it that the mother and the princess are reluctant to send the queen's birthday banquet, and deliberately make such a scene of thieves shouting and catching thieves!" Before Concubine Shu could get complacent, a male voice came from outside the door.

Everyone inquired and asked, and saw that Ji Fu, who had originally said goodbye, had returned, and a secret guard escorted a eunuch behind him and came in.

Quan Feifei fixed his eyes, a little incredulous.

The queen knew that tonight's game was done in vain, so she pretended to be relaxed, "Master Hou is." ”

Ji Fu bowed his hand: "Back to Niangniang's words, the minister felt bored, and when he wanted to go out of the palace, he happened to meet His Royal Highness, and he was arguing with the little eunuch. ”

Yun Yi said as he stepped forward and snatched the scroll in the eunuch's hand, and showed it to everyone with Yun Ran, and more professionals who studied and painted scrolls stepped forward to check it, and then bowed down to salute the queen: "Niangniang, this painting is indeed Murong Yin's real handiwork." ”

The crowd whispered, the real thing is there, and it is indeed not in the house where the congratulatory gifts are received, but in the hands of the original owner, it seems that it is reluctant to give up things and hinder the illusion that the birthday banquet picture designed by the face is stolen.

"Feifei, what's going on?" The queen almost rolled her eyes and scolded Quan Feifei for being stupid.

Expedient sneered in his heart, with such a stupid subordinate, the queen was afraid that she would be angry to death if she dreamed.

"Queen Mother, it must be that this eunuch's hands and feet are not clean, so he temporarily changed the congratulatory gift." Quan Feifei bit his mouth and didn't let go, afraid that others wouldn't believe it, so he rushed up and slapped the little eunuch, and scolded angrily: "You cheap slave, you dare to be greedy for the princess's congratulatory gift to the queen's mother, see if I don't kill you." ”

"Sixth sister, don't worry, this little eunuch's rhetoric is inconsistent with the confession of the queen's maidservant, this maid just said that she put the scroll in the side room, and I also had a relationship with her, which means that this painting was still there at that time, it seems that ...... It was this eunuch whose hands and feet were not clean and sneaked into the Niangniang Palace and stole the birthday banquet picture. ”

Expedient spoke up, stopped Quan Feifei, and pretended to be frightened by the eunuch's rebellion.

"According to Sister Chen, this person's hands and feet are not clean, and the maidservant girl may not have anything to do with this matter, so I think I will send the two of them to the Severe Punishment Division for torture."

The little eunuch had seen such a battle, and immediately explained what Quan Feifei said: "Seventh princess, don't wronged the slave, this is clearly you asked me to go out with the picture scroll, even if you give the little ten guts, the slave will not dare to exchange it for a congratulatory gift to the queen's mother!" ”

"You, what nonsense are you talking about? When did this princess say, don't frame it! Quan Feifei didn't expect that the expediency would be slightly agitated, and the little eunuch would say everything, so he was angry and argued for himself.

"Queen Mother, it must be that this little eunuch knows that he is dead and deliberately pulls Feifei water, and this congratulatory gift has been prepared for a few months, and there is no adulteration!" Shu Guifei helped.

It was almost time to watch the play, and he got up and said goodbye to the queen: "Queen Mother, the son is a little sleepy, maybe the wind and cold are not good, now that the matter has been clarified, the son will retire first." ”

The queen waved her hand and told her to stand down.

The moonlight sprinkled on the earth, and the palace Changden reflected each other, and it was expedient to stand in front of the pavilion in the imperial garden by stepping on the moonlight, looking at the bright moon reflected in the water, and the breeze blew and brought ripples.

"Little Seven!" Someone behind her suddenly called her.

When she turned around, she saw Quan Pei, dressed in a white robe, walking towards her, Quan Pei has always been so gentle and kind, like a spring breeze, it is the white moonlight of Quan Pei's childhood.

"Second Emperor Brother, why did you come out too?"

"It's too stuffy inside, it's not interesting, I followed you when I saw you come out." Kwon Bae stood still in front of her and smiled softly.

"Second brother is here to find me? Don't kneel, I do have something to tell my second brother, and if my second brother doesn't look for me, I will find a chance to talk to my second brother. ”

Quan Pei frowned, a little funny, and I don't know when the timid and cowardly little sister in front of her became calm and introverted, and she was not surprised, tonight this thing seems not to be very oppressive, but she can deal with it easily, he is really a little curious about what she will talk to him.

He propped himself up on the railing, looked at expediency, and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"What does the imperial brother think of this tonight?" Expedacy tentatively looked at Kwon Bae, trying to capture his every move.

Quan Pei is a person of great wisdom, although his temperament is more modest, but the strategic ambition in his heart is no worse than others, in the previous life, he stayed away from the struggle and just didn't want to see killing, but if he was allowed to recognize the facts, it was not difficult.

"You mean that the queen invited ministers from all sides, and the queen's ambition was clearly revealed, guess why the father did not obstruct it, it was because the father also wanted to see the direction of the wind in the court, and what the emperor was most afraid of was unpopularity, and after a long time, some people would be dissatisfied, so as to ......" He stopped suddenly, laughed shamefully, and touched the expedient head.

"What am I telling you to do with this?"

"The second emperor brother seems to know the way of being a king, the second emperor brother doesn't want to show his ambitions with other royal brothers, the second emperor brother is not a thing in the pool, if he is willing to do it, he will definitely make a great achievement, and give Dadu a holy prince." It is expedient to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and do not miss a chance to win over Quan Pei.

"Then tell me, what should I do, don't you want to pull me to cooperate with Ji Fu, I shouldn't have believed the rumors outside, but today Shuofeng Hou came forward to relieve you, but I have to think about the rumors, you really have something to do with him." Quan Pei looked worried, pulling expediency, it seemed that Ji Fu was really a Yama and wanted to take a detour.

"Second Emperor Brother, since you understand the form of tonight, what do you think of the Third Emperor Brother's attitude towards you and me, if they gain power in the future, do you think they will keep people who threaten their status?" Expedient raised his eyes and looked at Quan Pei sincerely, his tone sincere.

"You don't have to say it again, I have no interest in the status of power, and naturally I won't join anyone's camp, but I still have to persuade you again, Ji Fu is a very thoughtful person, and he has been on the battlefield for many years, you can't play him, and finally it's too late to withdraw now and return." Quan Pei stopped the expedient persuasion, but did not forget to persuade the other party in turn.

Quan Yi knew that tonight's conversation was over, and she couldn't listen to a word no matter how much she said Quan Pei, so she chuckled: "If the Second Emperor Brother understands me, he also knows that I am the same as the Second Emperor Brother, and the things and people he believes will not give up easily." ”

Quan Pei sighed, he didn't expect to persuade Dong Quan to do it, "Tonight's matter, it's just you and me, don't mention it in front of people in the future, understand?" ”

Knowing that he was worried about his comfort, Expedient nodded in response.

Quan Pei also felt that there was nothing to say, so he said goodbye to her and left, and Quan Pei then fell on a corner somewhere outside the pavilion and said softly: "Everyone is gone, and you haven't come out yet?" ”

From the time she was arguing with her personal power, she noticed that there was an extra person there, and she felt his breath before she called him out after the people left.

Ji Fu patted the fallen leaves on his body, his face was depressed and couldn't see the interest, and he walked up to her and stood without speaking.

"Did you hear what Fang just said?"
