Chapter 17: No Kindness
Seeing that Ruan Qingyin said Zhu Hai so preciously, the Quartet didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to prepare a sedan chair.
Half an hour later, Nguyen Thanh Yin arrived at the Internal Affairs Office.
This is the westernmost part of the entire palace, and at sunset, the blood-colored remnant sun spills down on the head and face, and the green bricks on the ground are red.
When the eunuch in charge of the Internal Affairs Office learned that Ruan Qingyin was coming, he was so busy that he almost dropped his hat and helped him all the way to him.
"The slave asks the queen mother to say goodbye, the queen mother is blessed with Jin'an!"
"Get up," Ruan Qingyin held the shelf, "Gonggong Li, the beloved Zhu Hai in this palace is broken, you go and ask who can repair it." ”
Steward Li took the handkerchief wrapped in the fragments of Zhu Hai with both hands, opened it and looked at it, and was immediately embarrassed.
How to restore broken jade?
can say it directly, and I was afraid of annoying Ruan Qingyin, so I thought twice before saying, "Queen Mother, if you like this Zhu Hai, Si Zhenfang can do exactly the same." ”
"It's exactly the same, it's not this one in the main palace." Ruan Qingyin twisted her eyebrows dissatisfied, "There are so many people in the Internal Affairs Office, can't any of them be repaired?" ”
"This ...... I'm afraid not. Director Li replied.
Ruan Qingyin didn't believe it, and took Zhu Hai back from him, "Bengong will ask for it yourself." ”
She walked around the huge internal affairs mansion several times, and went to almost every courtyard, but she didn't see her sister-in-law.
Anxiety has surfaced in my mind.
Could it be that my sister-in-law has already ......
Just thinking about it, Director Li took a step forward and stopped her, "Queen Mother, the place in front is the place to wash the Gong bucket, it's really filthy, don't go." ”
In the Internal Affairs Mansion, Ruan Qingyin has never been to this place.
"It's really filthy to wash the gong bucket, but this palace heard that some high-class palace maids and official ladies have committed crimes, and they will also be sent here, maybe they have this craft?"
Director Li couldn't argue, "It's indeed possible. ”
Ruan Qingyin hummed, maintained a dignified majesty, and walked in with the hands of the Quartet.
When she arrived at the door, she found a familiar figure in the stinking crowd.
It's not a sister-in-law, who is it!
In the crowd, the sister-in-law was wearing the white clothes of the palace maid, with her back bent, her body was thin, and she still had the sassy appearance of riding on a horse and playing polo in red.
Ruan Qingyin stared at her deadly, her eyes were sore and swollen, she clenched her teeth, and squeezed out an astringent voice from her throat, "You all stop, this palace has something to ask." ”
Director Li shouted, "What are you doing in a daze, the queen is here, I have something to ask you, kneel down quickly!" ”
The sister-in-law numbly followed the movements of others, but at the moment when she met Ruan Qingyin's eyes, her body trembled slightly, and after a moment of confusion, she pressed the little light surging under her eyes back into the bottomless quagmire.
She knelt down, kowtowed to Ruan Qingyin, and shouted to the queen mother Wanfu Jin'an.
Ruan Qingyin wanted to help, but couldn't.
The hand hidden in the sleeve robe clenched the palm of the hand and tried to suppress it.
She repeated her request.
Everyone looked at each other, very excited, and wanted to step forward to take over this errand.
As long as you can repair this vermilion hairpin, you can say goodbye to the dirty work of washing the bucket forever.
It is impossible to repair the jade.
No one wants to lose their lives because of this.
The sister-in-law kept her head down and didn't make a sound, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
Ruan Qingyin sighed regretfully, "It seems that no one can really fix it, just don't want it." ”
As he spoke, he threw Zhu Hai out with a handkerchief.
She calculated the strength and hit her sister-in-law's forehead impartially, and the crack of the broken jade was sharp, cutting her sister-in-law's face, and blood was gushing.
"Why don't you hide?" Ruan Qingyin pretended to be distressed, "If it spreads, others should think that the palace has not repaired Zhu Hai, and they will be angry with you minions." ”
"How can it be, the queen mother, it's this palace maid who doesn't have long eyes, so she has to hit it." Director Li immediately laughed flatteringly.
"Gonggong Li is watching from the side, naturally he knows the truth, but he is afraid that those who don't know will be passed around and ruin the reputation of the palace, Gonggong Li, what do you think the palace should do?"
Director Li thought about it carefully, and suddenly knelt down, "The queen mother is sympathetic to the palace maid, and personally took the injured palace maid back to recuperate, it is really a mother's honor in the world!" ”
As he spoke, he pulled the corner of his sister-in-law's clothes again, "What are you doing in a daze, don't you thank the queen soon." ”
The sister-in-law did so, but her tone was a little more alienated, "The slave and maid thanked the queen, but the slave and maid are just a brush bucket, which is really filthy, and I am afraid that the queen's bedroom will be dirty, so I still don't go." ”
