Chapter 5: Geng Chongrong's Death

"Today should have been the day when Concubine Ding, Geng Chongrong, and Xu Jieyu saw the ceremony, but they didn't want Geng Chongrong to die in the imperial garden pond last night. Geng Chongrong has just entered the palace, and it is impossible for him to travel alone for no reason, this matter is by no means a misstep, but a man-made disaster. No matter who it is, as long as it is verified, it will not be tolerated. ”

As soon as the queen's words fell, Concubine Ning opened her mouth and echoed: "The concubine is ordered to assist in the six palaces, but at the orders of the queen's mother. ”

Seeing this, An Ruo once again deepened her idea that the queen was an NPC, otherwise with her understanding of Concubine Ning yesterday, she would definitely not be so obedient.

After Concubine Ning spoke, all the concubines expressed their positions, and An Ruo was also mixed in.

"That being the case, why don't you listen to the palace with the palace maids and eunuchs."

The queen waved her hand lightly, and after a while, five eunuchs were brought up, and Qiu Fu, the palace maid of Kunning Palace, stepped forward and asked, "Explain the things you found out this morning in front of the queen mother and all the masters." ”

A round-headed and fat-eared, leader-like eunuch took a few steps forward, kowtowed: "The queen, the masters, the slave is called Xiaofuzi, in charge of the cleaning of the imperial garden, this morning when he took people to sweep the floor by the lotus pond in the imperial garden, he found a corpse floating in the lake, I thought it was the palace maid who wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake, and then I knew that it was Geng Chongrong Niangniang, who had just entered the palace. ”

"When you found out that you filled the mother, did you find any suspicious people around?"

Xiao Fuzi lowered his head and thought for a while before replying: "It was early in the morning, and only the palace maid and eunuch who were in charge of sprinkling and pruning the imperial garden had such a thing, and the servants didn't pay attention to see who else was in the imperial garden. ”

Hearing this, Qiu Fu skipped Xiao Fuzi, looked at the other eunuchs, and asked, "What about you?" ”

The eunuchs below looked at each other, and after one of the eunuchs quietly glanced at Concubine Ning, he lowered his head and said, "The slave saw Sister Pearl of Yanxi Palace, and he didn't know what to do, so he was in a hurry. ”

Concubine Ning never expected that this fire would burn on her head, so she immediately patted the armrest of the chair and stood up.

"What does it mean to see pearls in a hurry? Come on, slap the mouth of this palace! ”

"Yo! What is Sister Ning panicking about? This little eunuch didn't say that the pearl in my sister's palace killed Geng Chongrong, why is my sister so angry and ashamed, isn't it a weak heart? ”

Bai Zhaoyi touched the armor on her fingers, like a kitten, and quietly revealed her sharp claws.

"It can be seen that Bengong is too merciful to let you dare to talk nonsense like this, Hongxu, give Bengong her mouth!"

Before Hong Xu stepped forward, Bai Zhaoyi had already knelt on the ground and cried at the queen: "The queen mother saves the concubine, the concubine is just confused, where do you dare to provoke Concubine Ning." Now who doesn't know in the harem, together with the grade of the concubine, Concubine Ning doesn't look at it. ”

An Ruo, who was watching the play, never expected that this Bai Zhaoyi would provoke Concubine Ning, but also implicate her, feeling the gaze of inquiry from all directions, An Ruo took a sip of tea lightly, and slammed the cup on the desk lightly.

"This palace only entered the palace yesterday, but today I knew from Bai Zhaoyi's mouth that Sister Ning didn't look down on this palace. Sister Concubine Ning, is this really the case? ”

Concubine Ning immediately sneered: "This palace and Concubine Ding's sister hit it off at first sight yesterday, but they only knew that there were such rumors in the harem, and even more so did they know that Bai Zhaoyi dared to show off her tongue like the queen mother, and asked this palace to say that such a person should cut his tongue and throw it out." ”

is either a red or a tongue cut, An Ruo seriously suspects that Concubine Ning, a player, has violent tendencies, but Concubine Ning is so ruthless with Bai Zhaoyi, and she doesn't have the kind of harmony that NPCs should have, with a high probability, this Bai Zhaoyi is also a player.

Being able to tell who is the player and who is the NPC so accurately, An Ruo suddenly felt that Concubine Ning was shining with a dazzling golden light, which was definitely a thick thigh, and she could consider hugging her. But An Ruo looked up at the queen at the top again, and felt that this leg seemed to be thicker, after all, who would dare to provoke NPCs without dying?

"The harem is harmonious, and the previous dynasty can be stable, you are all high-grade concubines, pay attention to your words and deeds. Concubine Ning, since this eunuch saw the pearls in your palace, he summoned someone to ask him. ”

The queen's words could not be refused, Concubine Ning gritted her teeth and sat down, and Bai Zhaoyi also wiped away her tears and stopped speaking.

An Ruo looked at the situation in front of her, the queen seemed to be impartial, but in fact, Bai Zhaoyi was even better. Concubine Ning frowned, maybe she didn't know what Pearl had done, or maybe Pearl was really the culprit who killed Geng Chongrong, after all, Concubine Ning had already scolded a Xiaoxiao to death.

"Queen Mother, the pearls of Yanxi Palace have been brought."

As soon as Pearl entered the hall and bowed to all the maidens, she kept looking around, as if she had never seen such a formation, and her eyes revealed a trace of panic and panic.

"Pearl, what did you do early this morning?"

"According to the instructions, after the slave woke up this morning, she went to the imperial garden to collect flower dew, and Concubine Ning liked the ginkgo tea brewed in the early morning."

Seeing this, the queen looked at Concubine Ning and asked, "In that case, you just said it directly, why bother with it?" ”

Concubine Ning showed a hesitant look on her face, and after her eyes changed, she bent her knees and said, "The concubine just doesn't like Bai Zhaoyi to play right and wrong." ”

"That's really a concubine, but when did Sister Ning become so elegant, making tea with flower dew, and the concubine thought that only the concubine herself liked it in the harem!"

"Could it be that the harem is full of people, and only you, Bai Zhaoyi, are you elegant? Flower dew makes tea, who can't drink it! ”

"It's not that I'm afraid that Sister Ning will not be able to become a vassal, but she will spoil her appetite. After all, this flower dew soaked ginkgo biloba will taste good. ”

Concubine Ning immediately froze, stiffened for a while before she stiffened her neck and said, "This palace likes that smell, do you have an opinion?" ”

"The concubine doesn't dare."

Bai Zhaoyi, who messed up a pot of porridge, retreated, but no one in the harem was stupid, and Pearl and Concubine Ning were lying.

Sure enough, the queen spoke: "Since it was the flower dew picked this morning, it must still be there." Pearls, what bottle did you use to collect the flower dew? ”

Pearl lowered her head, the whole person shrank even more, and stumbled: "Slave maid, slave maid is used, azure, yes, azure porcelain kiln vase collection." ”

Without the queen to speak, Qiu Fu had already ordered someone to fetch it, and after a while, he brought an azure porcelain vase.

"Pearl, can you see if this is the porcelain vase you picked the flower dew in the morning?"

"Yes, yes."

Qiu Fu poured out the water in it and tasted it, his expression remained unchanged, but his eyes became fierce.

"Concubine Ning asked you to pick flower dew, but you took a bottle of water from the lotus pond. Pearl, aren't you telling the truth? ”

Pearl was paralyzed on the ground, and cried at Concubine Ning: "Niangniang, please save the slave and maid, the slave and maid are just following orders." ”
