Chapter 186: Another Storm

Great Xia Palace.

Mrs. Li, the head of the household, entered the palace at the order of Concubine Xiao, she wore a phoenix crown on her head, wore a court uniform, and followed the internal officials to the harem with a solemn and respectful face.

She walked in the palace, and she was in a nervous mood, because she had never crossed paths with this Concubine Xiao, and she didn't understand why she was invited here.

What made her worried was that King Xian was suspected of rebellion before, and was reprimanded by the emperor for not knowing people clearly, and since then he has been grounded in the palace and cannot come out.

Concubine Xiao was also implicated and went to Fengxian Hall to reflect on it, although this was Concubine Xiao's own punishment for herself, and the emperor did not delve into the matter because of her family affection, but Concubine Xiao was inevitably knocked on the hat in the name of rebellion.

For this kind of person, who doesn't hide far away, but Concubine Xiao suddenly saw her, she didn't want to come, but she didn't dare to disobey.

When she finally arrived at the Fengxian Palace, the internal official asked her to wait here and then retreated.

Mrs. Li was cranky, and fidgeted even more with fear.

After a while, Concubine Xiao, who was dressed in white, walked into the hall supported by the female official, her hair was tied into a bun with green silk at will, and only a white hosta was inserted in the side of the bun.

Mrs. Li hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to salute Concubine Xiao: The courtiers knocked on Concubine Xiao's mother."

Concubine Xiao walked up to Mrs. Li and stretched out her hand to help her up, "Mrs. Shangshu doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly."

"Xie Xiao, Concubine Niangniang." Mrs. Li took a few steps back very reservedly to show respect.

Concubine Xiao stepped forward to take Mrs. Li's hand and slowly walked to the table of the Eight Immortals, "Madame, sit down."

"How can a courtier sit on an equal footing with a mother, or stand and listen to her mother's words." Mrs. Li bowed her head.

"There are no outsiders here, we can sit and talk." Concubine Xiao pulled her to sit down and looked at the female official.

The female official came over to pour tea.

"Madame try it, this is the new tribute tea this year, if you like to take some with you when you leave, go home and give it to Lord Shangshu to try." Concubine Xiao looked at Mrs. Li with a shallow smile.

"Yes." Mrs. Li took the teacup and tasted it lightly.

Concubine Xiao took a sip, wiped the mouth of the teacup with her sharp index finger, and lowered her eyes: "This palace heard that your daughter died on the wedding day, and the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, but it hurt you."

"Thank you for your kindness." Mrs. Li lowered her head and tried her best to suppress the grief in her heart.

"The palace was shocked when it found out, and he shouldn't have asked Mrs. Li to enter the palace at this time, but he really felt sorry for Mrs., so he called someone to invite Mrs. into the palace."

She stretched out her hand and took Mrs. Li's hand, her beautiful eyes were full of sadness: "Madam, you don't have to bear it, come out if you want to cry, don't treat this palace as an outsider."

Mrs. Li finally couldn't help it and sobbed in a low voice.

Concubine Xiao took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the tears on Mrs. Li's face: "This palace is also a person with a daughter, if Yang Xin has anything to do, this palace will definitely not be able to live, so this palace can especially understand Madame's sadness."

"Mother, courtier, my heart is bitter." Mrs. Li cried so much that her face was full of tears, her hands clenched into fists, and she pounded her chest.

Concubine Xiao pretended to be sad and sobbed, wiped her tearless cheeks with a silk handkerchief, and sighed: "This palace knows, this palace understands, so I called you into the palace, one is to relieve Madame, and the other is to want Madame to relax in the palace."

"Niangniang is such a size courtier, it really flatters the courtier."

"That's as it should be." Concubine Xiao said and beckoned to the female officer.

The female officer came over and placed a beautifully carved wooden box in front of Mrs. Li.

"Madam, this is Concubine Xiao's intention, I hope to relieve Madame's worries."

Mrs. Li hurriedly waved her hand: "No, the courtiers have no merit and no virtue, and they can't afford to be rewarded by their mothers."

Concubine Xiao opened the wooden box, and inside was a red ginseng in excellent condition.

"This red ginseng is still rewarded by the emperor when the palace gave birth to Yang Xin, it is a real thousand-year-old red ginseng, the only one in the world, you have experienced the pain of losing your daughter, you are physically and mentally exhausted, it must be a great loss, this red ginseng will give Mrs. a good patch."

Hearing this, Mrs. Li pushed the box back: "But I can't help it, a hundred years of ginseng is already very rare, this one."

It is a thousand years, where is this blessing that the courtiers can afford, the courtiers are very grateful to the mother, and the courtiers feel sorry for the courtiers, and the courtiers will never accept this red ginseng."

Concubine Xiao pushed to Mrs. Li again: "They all say that you don't want to see the palace, you and I will all get along as sisters in the future, if you don't accept it, then you will look down on the palace......

"Don't dare, the courtiers don't dare to have the slightest disrespect for the mother." Mrs. Li stood up and saluted respectfully to Concubine Xiao.

"Then you can take it with peace of mind." Concubine Xiao smiled brightly and stretched out her hand to pull Mrs. Li to sit down.

Mrs. Li was a little embarrassed, and finally nodded: "Okay, then I'll accept it, thank you for the reward." Chinese Net

This gift had to be accepted, and she was even more flustered, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Concubine Xiao's gourd.

Concubine Xiao smiled with satisfaction, she took the teacup and tasted it elegantly, and the female official stepped forward to fill her with tea.

She looked at the tea leaves floating in the lamp, and slowly spoke: "This palace learned about your daughter's wedding day, this palace feels strange, Liu Jing, who was sent to the secret prostitution, is half dead, how can she escape from the secret prostitute.

Bengong is a more sincere character, so he asked people to check, but it turned out that Chu Zishan brought Liu Jing out of the secret prostitution, Liu Jing made a big fuss about your daughter's wedding, it was all planned by Chu Zishan, Chu Zishan, she is really insidious and deceitful, causing your daughter to die innocently."

"Niangniang's heart is like a mirror, then Chu Zishan is the culprit who harmed my daughter, my poor daughter must be blind to death."

Mrs. Li covered her face and cried bitterly: "You can hate me, but you can't avenge my daughter's blood hatred, I'm really useless."

She cried very sadly, but the mood that had just been nervous was calm.

When she heard Concubine Xiao talk about Chu Zishan, she immediately understood that Concubine Xiao and King Xian were harmed by Chu Zishan in this situation.

Chu Zishan became her enemy with Concubine Xiao, and Concubine Xiao wanted to join forces with her to take revenge on Chu Zishan.

It's so good, her daughter's death made her miserable, she knew that the person who killed her daughter was Chu Zishan, but she couldn't kill the enemy, and she was tortured worse than dead.

Concubine Xiao pinched the teacup with her slender fingers and shook it gently, and said slowly, "Killing Chu Zishan, I'm afraid it will take a lot of Zhou Zhang, and he may not be able to kill her. But now there's an opportunity."

Mrs. Li's eyes widened with a hint of excitement: "The opportunity that Niang Niang said is ......."

"No matter how ironclad people are, they will have her weakness, and the Chu family is Chu Zishan's weakness."

Hearing this, Mrs. Li smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from Niangniang, I have tried, Mrs. Chu is followed by many nurses when she goes out, and it seems that there are secret guards to protect her, so she can't do it."

"There are a lot of Chu family members, why do you have to pick and choose those who are not easy to start, according to this palace, there is also a fifth girl in the Chu family, who went to the old clan for foster care since she was a child, and came back a while ago."

Mrs. Li smiled sneeringly: "This five-girl courtesy also knows, but she basically doesn't go out, and she doesn't know where to start."

"If you don't go out, then let someone lure her out." Concubine Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly, and her beautiful eyes were full of cruelty.

"I'm afraid it'......."

Concubine Xiao turned her eyes and smiled at Mrs. Li: "Yesterday, this five girls from the Chu family came to the gate of the palace and said that they wanted to find a good match, hmph, the world is so shameless, and the girls of her Chu family are all virtuous."

Mrs. Li pouted and smiled: "I've never seen such a shameless ***, so can she find a good match, who is it?"

Concubine Xiao raised her head, her beautiful eyes full of disdain: "No one would have imagined that the person the fifth sister of the Chu family was looking for turned out to be Mo Xiao."
