Chapter 16

Concubine Xiao got rid of the dragon in the queen mother's womb, of course, these two Tianshan snow lotus are as fast as possible, but they can't be rushed, causing the queen mother's suspicion, she glanced at Concubine Hua and said: "Sister, the queen mother has a happy day, these two snow lotuses can be temporarily placed here for safekeeping, and it is not too late to give them to the queen mother after the fetus in the queen mother's womb is seven weeks later." ”

"My sister also heard that there is a chef in Jiguang County, Heniuzhou, and this famous chef's surname is Zhu Mingyuqing. He is good at cooking dishes, especially good at making nourishing medicinal food. ”

My sister wanted to invite him to the palace to cook this Tianshan Snow Lotus for the Queen Mother. For the queen mother's body nourishment, I don't know what my sister thinks?"

Concubine Hua was overjoyed when she heard this, and agreed with what Concubine Xiao said, and then said: "Since my sister has such good intentions, how can my sister refuse, but this He Niuzhou, Jiguang County is far away from Chang'an City, and it is tiring all the way, and my sister is afraid that my sister's body will not be able to bear it!"

Concubine Xiao took Concubine Hua's hand, and said with a look of unwillingness to go to the soup for the Queen Mother: "Sister, even if she suffers a lot, my sister is willing to find a famous chef for the Queen Mother for one day and make nourishing medicinal food for her." In the future, when the dragon son is born, it will be indispensable for my sister and me!"

"If the Queen Mother learns that this hard-won Tianshan Snow Lotus and the world's famous chef Zhu Yuqing are found by me and my sister after a lot of hard work, the Queen Mother will definitely be moved by this, and we will have the strong support of the Queen Mother in the future, and it can be regarded as relying on this deep palace, you say yes, sister. ”

Although Concubine Hua has other views on this, she also knows that the Queen Mother may one day be difficult to protect herself, and now that His Majesty has not been abolished because of the favor of Guo Qiuyue, perhaps His Majesty's jealousy is related to the * Peking University General, he has 200,000 troops, if it is not good for his daughter.

* General Bei came to Chang'an City to ask for an explanation, for fear that His Majesty would not be able to give him an explanation, so he kept the false title of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother stood on the side of the Queen Mother, also for Emperor Wuwei's country. Each of these deep palaces is for its own benefit. How can there be any true feelings, Concubine Hua has a deep understanding of this.

So although Concubine Hua could see through everything, she still pretended to agree and nodded: "Sister, this is reasonable." Since my sister wants to go to Jiguang County, Heniuzhou, to find a cook for the Queen Mother to make nourishing meals for the Queen Mother, it's just hard for my sister. ”

Concubine Hua also has her purpose in saying this, although the Queen Mother has been set aside by Guo Qiuyue, no matter how she is still the Queen Mother, if Concubine Xiao can be appreciated by the Queen Mother, it will be somewhat harmless to her, so Concubine Hua also supports this.

And Concubine Xiao's purpose is not for the good of the Queen Mother, but to gain the trust of Concubine Hua, get closer to the Queen Mother, and get rid of the dragon in her womb.

Although the two seem to be brothers and sisters, they each have their own ghosts. It's just that Concubine Hua was cured by Concubine Xiao because of her broken finger, so she was moved. is convinced of the current Concubine Xiao, she really thinks that Concubine Xiao has not changed, and she is still her good sister.

Everything she did was for Concubine Xiao's good, but she didn't know that Concubine Xiao beside her was transformed by Guo Qiuyue, and there was another purpose for treating her severed finger. Concubine Xiao smiled and said, "Sister, I can serve the Queen Mother." My concubine Xiao doesn't feel hard, my sister's move is also for herself, my sister should understand that my sister is good at taking care of herself, and my sister will set off to Jiguang County, Heniuzhou, to find a famous chef for the Queen Mother. ”

After saying that, Concubine Xiao stood up and prepared to leave Kangning Palace to find the famous chef Zhu Ziqing for the Queen Mother, Concubine Hua hurriedly got up and waved her hand worriedly: "Sister, you just returned to Kangning Palace, you should rest for a while, it's not too late to leave tomorrow!"

Concubine Xiao turned around and smiled: "Sister, don't worry about me, my sister retired first." ”

Concubine Hua originally wanted to say something, but when she saw Concubine Xiao, she decided to decide. didn't stop it anymore, waved his hand worriedly: "Sister, take care of yourself all the way." ”

Concubine Xiao walked out of the lobby of Kangning Palace and said, "Sister, don't worry, my sister can return to Kangning Palace to visit my sister in a few days." ”

After Concubine Xiao left, Concubine Hua sat back in the lobby, she was still defensive of Concubine Xiao, because the broken finger has disappeared, Concubine Xiao has no support in this palace, and now Guo Qiuyue occupies the harem, this person is insidious and vicious.

Concubine Xiao's move is also reasonable, and His Majesty may support her in favor of her, but after falling out of favor, she has no one to stand up for her, and now Concubine Xiao has won Guo Qiuyue's trust and let her come to her side to monitor the Queen Mother.

She is so attentive to the Queen Mother, which shows that she has also made progress in the way she does things, and she has tried her best to get the appreciation of the Queen Mother, maybe she just wants to be offended on both sides, it is so simple, Concubine Xiao is not a person who is intrigue.

Concubine Hua thought that maybe it was because of her simplicity, but she was thinking too much, so she shook her head helplessly and sighed: "I hope things are not as bad as I imagined, maybe I really blame her." ”

And the national teacher is still building the platform in an orderly manner, her death is getting closer and closer, and there is not much time left for her. Concubine Hua looked out of the courtyard with blank eyes, sighed blankly and said, "Alas, I don't know what this Dongsheng Kingdom will look like in the future, it's a pity, it's a pity......"

There was reluctance and helplessness in her sigh. After all, it may have nothing to do with her in the future, and all she has to do now is wait for death.

In the National Teacher's Mansion, the National Teacher sat in front of the hall, playing with two night pearls in his hand and was extremely dazzling, since the cooking incident, there was no riot among the coolies, and Geng Jie also changed his appearance, concentrating on doing things for the National Teacher, and won the appreciation of the National Teacher.

The national teacher saw that Geng Jie was doing well today, and immediately summoned him to the national teacher's mansion to speak. ”

The national teacher sat in front of the hall, constantly playing with the night pearl, and when he saw Geng Jie stepping forward to give a salute, he hurriedly put down the two night pearls in his hand, waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, sit down!"

Geng Jie saluted again: "Untouchables, thank you to the national teacher." Then Geng Jie sat down on the chair under the hall and asked curiously: "I don't know what the national teacher is doing to let the untouchables into the palace?" ”

The national teacher smiled, waved his hand and said: "Alas, Geng Jie doesn't need to panic, the national teacher called you here today, not because you are ineffective, but because of your outstanding performance, I specially asked you to come and reward you." ”

Geng Jie hurriedly thanked him and said: "Thanks to the support of the national teacher, it is within the responsibility of the untouchables to do things for the national teacher, how dare the untouchables invite credit." The untouchables have thanked the national teacher for their cultivation. ”

The national teacher was overjoyed when he heard this, and then got up and clapped his hands and said: "Okay, you are worthy of being a teacher of our country, you know the current affairs, and you know the current affairs! Let me ask you, do you have any family members at home?"

Geng Jie hurriedly said: "Qi Yu National Teacher, there is another sick old mother in bed in the untouchable family, as well as a blind wife and a young son. ”

The national teacher suddenly remembered something, and then patted his head and said: "Hehe, I seem to have heard you say it, and I blame me for being careless and forgetting, so let's do it, the national teacher remembers you heartily and uprightly, and specially approves your family to come to live in the national teacher's mansion, and you can also take care of your family." ”

Then the national teacher looked at a few slaves on the side and said: "Come on, go to Geng Jie's house, take his family to the national teacher's mansion, and arrange a few side rooms for his family, so that they can take care of them, and there must be no mistakes." ”

The slave hurriedly said, "Yes, the slave will do it." Then he left the National Teacher's Mansion, and when the National Teacher saw Geng Jie's stunned face, he smiled and said, "Geng Jie, you do things for your national teacher, and your national teacher will not treat you and your family badly." I hope that you will do your best to build the Shangyue Platform for your national teacher in the future, but don't live up to the expectations of the national teacher. ”

Geng Jie hurriedly thanked him and said: "Thank you for the cultivation of the untouchables and the love of the family, the untouchables should do their best to serve the national teacher, and they will not give up. ”

The national teacher picked up the night pearl and walked down the lobby playing with it in his hand. Came to Geng Jie's side, and said with a slight smile: "Go back, the construction of Shangyue Platform is inseparable from you, after your family members come to the National Teacher's Mansion and settle down, I should send someone to inform you to meet with your family, go and get busy!"

Geng Jie got up and said, "Xie Guoshi, the untouchables have retired." ”

After Geng Jie left, the national teacher's face showed a hint of sinisterness, the reason why he wanted to take Geng Jie's family into the national teacher's mansion was actually another attempt. seems to be rewarding Geng Jie, but in fact, he is using this to control Geng Jie, as long as his family is in his own hands, he is not afraid that Geng Jie has two hearts.

He didn't know that Geng Jie's family had already been ruined, his mother died of illness, his blind wife fell into a well and died, and only his young son survived. And all this was caused by the national teacher, if he hadn't captured Geng Jie to work as a coolie, there was no pillar at home, so that the old mother had no one to take care of her and died of illness on the bed.

The blind wife fell into the well and suffered an accident, even the young son almost died in Huangquan, all of this started because of the national teacher, Geng Jie he didn't know about it, and he was still fantasizing about reuniting with his family, so he was even more grateful to the national teacher and repaid the national teacher for his love.

However, after a long time, the slave came to the National Teacher's Mansion from Geng Jie's house, and the National Teacher saw that the slave did not bring his family, so he hurriedly put the teacup on the case, and asked curiously: "What about the people that the national teacher asked you to bring? Why didn't Geng Jie's family come to the mansion?"

The servant hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Qi Qi National Teacher, when the villain went to Geng Jie's house, he did not see his family, and the villain inquired in many ways and learned that Geng Jie's mother and blind wife were deceased, and only his young son did not know his whereabouts. ”

The national teacher then stood up with a shocked face, slapped the table and said sharply, "What? His old mother's blind wife died?"

Seeing that the national teacher was suddenly furious, the slave couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly replied tremblingly: "Yes, both died at home. ”

Immediately, the national teacher's eyes widened, his face turned red, and he asked with a violent expression, "How did you die?"

The slave looked frightened and hurriedly said, "His old mother died on the bed because there was no one to take care of her, and his blind wife was blind and unable to move. He didn't fall into a well and died. ”

After hearing this, the national teacher was thoughtful, and waved his hand with an irritated face: "You go down first!"

The servant hurriedly saluted, "Yes, the villain is leaving." ”

After the slave left, the national teacher sat back in front of the hall, with an anxious face, he planned to use Geng Jie's family to control him and do his best for himself, but he never thought that his family would suffer misfortune because Geng Jie was not at home and had no one to take care of him.

Even if he can control him, it will be difficult to control his heart, and this matter will definitely make him resentful, and if he has trouble in the future. Fearing that the construction of the high platform would be delayed, after thinking about it, the national teacher thought that Geng Jie must not know about this matter.

The best way to keep him from knowing is to destroy the truth, so a trace of murderous intent flashed in the national teacher's heart, he wanted to kill all Geng Jie's family, so that no one would tell the truth, and Geng Jie would never know why his family died.

The two night pearls in the hands of the national teacher rotated in his hands, making a "gurgling" sound from time to time, this sound was extremely terrifying at the moment, it was ringing in his ears with blood light and murderous aura. It was like the call of death, summoning Geng Jie's only surviving family.

And his sister, brother-in-law and his only bloodline will also become the soul of the national teacher under the butcher's knife, suddenly the national teacher put down the night pearl in his hand, and roared: "Someone is coming, ......"
