Chapter 5: Making Death Omens
Chunhua immediately reported what she had seen and heard when she followed Jasper.
"Princess, Biyu went to a mansion in Ping'an Lane, where the door is closed and there is no way to go in to investigate, but about the people living in the house, the slaves and maids have inquired with the neighbors on the left and right......
Su Nianyun couldn't help but sit up straight.
"In the house is a young lady who has just moved over, saying that her husband is on the expedition, and she is the only one who lives with her newborn son......"
"What is this lady's name?" There was a subtle tremor in Su Nianyun's voice.
"That woman doesn't go out often, and the neighbors around her don't know her name, they only call her Mrs. Zhou!"
"Zhou Niangzi? Son! ”
"Haha......" Su Nianyun suddenly burst into laughter.
In the laughter, it is hatred, resentment, and madness!
"Princess?"
Seeing Su Nianyun smile like this for the first time, Mama Liu was worried.
Of the others, she knew best what had happened to the princess.
After laughing, Su Nianyun suddenly covered his face.
Seeing this, Mama Liu immediately gave Chunhua and Xia Yue a look, "You go to rest first, and come back to the princess tomorrow morning to return to your life." ”
The two girls withdrew first.
"Princess, are you alright?" Mama Liu handed Su Nianyun a handkerchief.
Su Nianyun wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and then slammed the high-quality celadon vase next to her hand.
The loud sound of "bang" shattering immediately woke up the sleepy girl on duty in the courtyard.
She hurried to the door of the main house, knocked tentatively, and asked, "Princess, what has happened?" ”
Mama Liu opened the door with a gloomy face, "Xiaocui, go and call all the people in the courtyard!" ”
Xiaocui didn't know what was going on, but she still went to gather the girls who were also confused to the courtyard as Mama Liu instructed.
The white lotus finally came.
Since the princess returned home, she has been busy with her feet on the ground.
She made four or five trips to the kitchen alone.
Either the food was not to the princess's liking, or the bath water was cold and hot.
Originally, these jobs should be done by second- and third-class girls.
She is a first-class girl, and she is here to be the princess's close maid and manage the entire Tingfeng Courtyard.
But the princess seemed to regard her as a rough girl, and as long as she went to the princess's eyes, the princess kept assigning her work, which made her unable to speak.
She finally got into the dark and just wanted to go into the house to rest, but she didn't want to be called to the yard again before her butt touched the edge of the bed.
Four rough girls stood behind, the first-class girl Bai Lotus and the second-class girl Dangui stood in the middle of the front row, and the two third-class girls were next to the two.
"I ask you, who has entered the main house on the day and night that I went out with the princess?" Mama Liu asked as she stood on the steps.
Bai He couldn't help but look at the princess sitting in the middle of the main house, not knowing what their master and servant suddenly meant by asking.
Dangui said, "Mama Liu, the main house has always been cleaned up by me and Sister Baihe, and others are not allowed to enter." ”
"So, you and Bai He, who took the jade jade Buddha given to the princess by the Queen Mother?"
"What?" Dangui's eyes widened, "Mama Liu, what jade and jade Buddha?" ”
She hadn't seen any jade Buddha at all.
However, it was not her cleaning the main house these two days, she subconsciously looked at Bai He.
Bai He glared at her, "What do you think I do?" ”
"Sister Baihe, you have been in charge of the main house for the past two days, should you ......?"
"Don't wronged me," Bai He turned his head to Su Nianyun, who was sitting in the main room, and said, "Princess, the slave maid has never seen any jade Buddha at all." ”
"Since you didn't take it, and no one else came into the house, where did the princess's Jade Buddha go?"
"Mama Liu, the slave maid doesn't know," Bai He knelt on the ground, "Bai He can swear to the sky that the slave and maid really haven't seen any Jade Buddha." ”
"Don't admit it, do you?"
Mama Liu looked at the two older rough girls, "You two, tie people up and beat them until she is willing to admit them." ”
The two rough girls were stunned and didn't dare to start.
They are low-class girls, only beaten and have never beaten anyone.
Second, they are also afraid that they will be retaliated against if they hit Bai He or something.
"Why, if you don't do it, you still can't wait for this palace to do it yourself?" Su Nianyun, who had been sitting in the room watching the play, opened his mouth coolly.
With the princess's order, the two girls had to take a staff and a rope and walk towards Bai He.
Bai He's eyes were about to split, and she shouted while struggling, "Princess, Bai He was wronged, the slave really didn't steal any Jade Buddha......
"Ahh Before she could cry out again, a sturdy rod hit her body, and she screamed again and again.
Hearing her scream, Su Nianyun remembered this girl in her previous life...... No, Bai He was also old at that time, and she was the most qualified old mother in the house.
When she was terminally ill, Bai He broke the leg of the little girl who secretly gave her medicine on the order of the old lady.
She slandered the little girl for stealing things and threw her out of the Chen Mansion to fend for herself.
Now, in the cycle of cause and effect, she also wants her to taste the taste of being slandered.
"Ah, princess, the slave really didn't steal anything......"
"Princess, you have wronged the slave!"
"Old lady, help!"
Bai He's painful screams filled the entire Tingfeng Courtyard.
However, her whineing and wailing were still useful, because Mother Wen helped the old lady over in time.
"Good manner, Nianyun, what are you doing here? At night, you still don't let me sleep peacefully? ”
didn't understand the reason for the matter, but the old lady complained about Su Nianyun first.
"Old lady......" Su Nianyun got up aggrievedly and greeted her.
Only then did the old lady notice that her eyes were red, as if she had cried.
"You...... What's going on here? ”
Visiting this queen mother's daughter from the front palace, she only felt that she was timid and cowardly, and she had no opinions, but now she seems to be extremely squeamish.
It's just that I went to a remote temple to pray for blessings, and when I came back, I complained a lot.
As soon as the day's events passed, she wiped her tears and was pitiful at night, so that outsiders who didn't know the truth saw it, and thought that she, who was a mother-in-law, had bullied the princess!
"Mother......" was asked by the old lady, but Su Nianyun burst into tears again.
Seeing that Su Nianyun didn't speak and only shed tears, the old lady had to look at Mama Liu.
"Mama Liu, look at it, how can I explain this to the Queen Mother!"
The old lady is not afraid of Su Nianyun, the queen mother's daughter, but she is a little afraid of Mama Liu.
After all, this is the Queen Mother's henchman.
The Queen Mother is smart and sensitive, she went from the most inconspicuous of the many concubines of the former emperor to the position of the Queen Mother, in addition to the sufficient means, the people around her also contributed a lot.
Therefore, Mama Liu is the person she should deal with carefully.
"Old lady, don't blame the princess for being angry and crying, the queen mother has cherished the jade Buddha since she was young......"
"It is rumored that there are flying stones from outside the sky, and such a jade Buddha statue that was born naturally was presented to the first emperor by Fanbangjin, and the first emperor gave it to the queen mother."
"This time the princess got married, and the queen mother gave the jade Buddha to the princess as a dowry, but the princess was only out of the house for a day, and the jade Buddha was gone!"
Su Nianyun cried, "The Queen Mother gave the Jade Buddha to the palace, and if the Jade Buddha is lost, it will not be impossible to explain to the Queen Mother, the important thing is that the palace made a wish to the Jade Buddha." ”
"This palace sincerely went to the Buddhas to ask for peace for Shao'an, but everything did not go well, went to Lingyun Temple, Lingyun Temple did not have incense, made a wish to the Jade Buddha, and the Jade Buddha disappeared again......"
"Mother, these are not good signs, are they ...... in the dark?"
Su Nianyun said with some despair, "Is it because God doesn't want Shao'an to be safe?" ”
