After rebirth, I made the princes cry

On this day, Sikong Beichen and Chen Shanxian met by chance for the second time.

Sikong Beichen gained a lot from this chance encounter.

"You said the Queen Mother wanted to use Ying Shu to poison Shi Concubine?!"

"That's what I guessed."

"Among them, Chen Liangren has a big 'contribution', right?!" Sikong Beichen's face was cold.

"Even if I didn't instigate dissension, Liu Cai and Zheng Liang would not do anything. I took the letter from Her Majesty the Queen just to inform the crown prince of the danger in an emergency." Chen Shanxian still responded fluently.

Sikong Beichen completely overturned his previous judgment of Chen Shanxian's intelligence, but he did not feel good about it: "What do you think Gu should do?"

"I thought that Her Royal Highness the Queen's plan would not succeed, and Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince could do nothing."

"Oh?"

Chen's response was indeed beyond Sikong Beichen's expectation. He thought that Chen came to inform him in order to gain credit.

"A person who is responsible has nothing to do with being quiet or not. A person like Wang Nv Shi, who is in the limelight, will not actually do anything harmful to nature. Although I am not familiar with Wang Nv Shi, I can only look at the past few disputes and disturbances... Xu Yangjun and Wang Nv Shi were not related, but they were saved thanks to Wang Nv Shi. Wang Nvjun clearly had ill intentions towards Nv Shi, and Nv Shi had the opportunity to kill him, but in order to prevent Xu Yangjun from being killed, Wang Nvjun also gained vitality.

The Queen's strategy this time was actually a repeat of the same trick, and she probably planned to induce Princess Shi to poison Concubine Shi. However, I thought that Princess Shi was tolerant and had a benevolent character, and was definitely not greedy or vicious. Not to mention even my concubine can see that His Majesty actually intends to pardon Shi Concubine for her crimes. Your Majesty values ​​Shi Concubine so much that even if Concubine Qiao is really the murderer of the little princess, Princess Shi will not commit such a fallacy of killing and silencing her. count. "

"Then why did you come to inform?"

"Although I judge this way, I know that Your Highness values ​​the history of the Queen, so I informed Your Highness in advance just in case."

Sikong Beichen raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you worried that the Queen will notice that you are the snitch?"

"Of course Your Highness hopes that I will still gain the trust of Her Majesty the Queen." Chen Shanxian said confidently: "I think that although Her Majesty the Queen will definitely help Her Majesty the Crown Prince consolidate his throne, Her Majesty the Queen is limited by internal disputes and lacks The clever plan to mediate with the powerful people and ministers with ulterior motives, and around Her Royal Highness the Queen, there are also people like Liu Cairen who care about selfish desires to instigate and instigate. I am afraid that in the future, they will continue to be used to do things that are not beneficial to the Crown Prince. His Highness’s affairs.”

"Gu Ke thinks that Mrs. Liu doesn't have the ability like you. It was you who encouraged the queen to resist Ying Shu."

"I have already said the most cruel words. As long as these words are spoken, Her Majesty the Queen will still fail. No matter how Liu Cairen provokes her, Her Majesty the Queen will never do anything reckless again."

Sikong Beichen didn't say much more to Chen Shanxian.

He actually knew that the Queen had eyes and ears in Bincen Pavilion, not to mention the catering department, but when the fifth princess case broke out, Bincen Pavilion was immediately banned. If Yingshu hadn't been punished and went there, the Queen would never have thought of the plan and Bincen Pavilion. With the "connection" between his eyes and ears, the Queen's strategy has reached a critical point. If he goes to Bincen Pavilion and the Queen fails immediately... the Queen will definitely doubt him.

Mother and son were suspicious, and the conflict intensified, which was certainly not conducive to the next plan. Sikong Beichen gave up the idea of ​​informing Ying Shu.

And he really didn't think Ying Shu would fall into the trap.

Yingshu already knew about Concubine Qiao's crime. Even if it was to protect Sikong Nanci, she would not put things of unknown origin into Concubine Shi's food. Even if Concubine Qiao's eyes and ears in Bincen Pavilion died suddenly, as long as Concubine Shi The concubine was unscathed. The death of a mere palace maid could not prove Yingshu's crime at all. And when the time comes, in order to completely remove the suspicion, Yingshu will definitely accuse Qiao Concubine. This matter will not damage the Xianyang Palace. It has nothing to do with the East Palace.

Sikong Beichen was relieved.

Unexpectedly, Yingshu had troubles outside Bincen Pavilion. On this day, she accepted the "Five Stone Powder" given to her by Lily.

"Just in case, it's better for the female historian not to give all of it to Shi Concubine in one breath, just limit it to a single dose. Madam specifically explained that even if Shi Concubine regrets and refuses to plan for the female historian to return to Qianyuan Hall, the converse will be Using the female historian to convey the threat of banned drugs, as long as the concubine Shi doesn't know where the female historian stores the banned drugs, there is nothing you can do with the female historian." Lily placed a dozen five-stone stickers at the bottom of the food box and displayed them.

"I understand. Naturally I will not store this medicine in my room. It is appropriate to leave it to Xiuwei for storage."

"Xiu Wei was Shi Concubine's personal maid. Even if banned drugs were found in her room, she can still say that Shi Concubine gave them to her for collection. Female Shi can rest assured that Xiu Wei is just like Chun Ye. Outside the palace, everyone has family members living in Jiankang City, and her family has been controlled by Madam and will not betray her."

Yingshu smiled and said: "Of course I believe that Madam will act prudently."

After receiving the "Five Stone Powder", Ying Shu walked around with a round fan again. Now that she could go straight into Shi Concubine's bedroom, the palace people were more willing to associate with her, so even if they "accidentally met" Xiu Wei, they invited her I went to the room to drink a cup of herbal tea, and no one cared.

"It's all here. You can take it and keep it. If I need it, I will take the fan to the pavilion in the garden. You don't have to come to talk to me every time. There is a medicinal herb placed outside the clean room you are using. Cage? When you see the signal, put a five-stone pile at the bottom of the herb cage, and I will get it myself at night."

Dozens of pieces of paper with five stones can actually be carried around without anyone noticing. Although Xiuwei lives with two other palace ladies, she also has a separate wardrobe, so it is not difficult to store personal belongings, and she has already Knowing that Yingshu was caught in the trap - she was not taking orders from Mrs. She really doesn't know what to do next.

However, as eyes and ears, she also possesses another basic knowledge.

Ten posts of Five Stone Powder were made with pulp paper, which inevitably caused the medicinal powder to scatter. Naturally, they had to be tied with silk ropes outside the pulp paper. Xiuwei looked carefully and found the post with this ink stain on the silk rope. Paper, when she went to the clean room to take a bath that day, she carried the five-stone powder with her. When her body sweat seeped out and wet the medicine, Xiuwei sprinkled all the powder into the bath water and took her with her. Another small bottle of incense ash came in and was poured onto the paper. Soon, writing appeared on the paper.

Xiuwei came out of the clean room and glanced at Shi Bin's hospital room. She saw that the door was closed. This was commonplace. To put it bluntly, it was difficult for Shi Bin to secretly take the banned medicine. Since Bincen Pavilion was banned, everyone except Pu Apart from that, other palace residents rarely have the opportunity to enter that ward.

Xiuwei walked lightly and walked through the courtyard to another palace where the palace ladies lived. She saw three palace ladies in the palace playing leaf cards. She stepped forward and asked with a smile: "What's the gamble here?"

"What else is there to bet on? The loser will just wash his clothes tomorrow, and we don't know when the ban will be lifted. Our clothes can't be sent to the clothes department."

The clothes of the palace ladies, like those of the female officials, are uniformly cleaned by the Clothing Department. The little palace ladies in the palace who are responsible for laundry wash, iron and dry the intimate clothes of the concubines. However, Bincen Pavilion is now closed, and the palace ladies They can only wash their own clothes. Laundry is okay, but carrying water is hard work. It is banned anyway, and there is much free time. Therefore, the good maids will fight with leaf cards, and the loser will wash the clothes.

There are only a few personal maids of Shi Bin. Except for Pu Yi, the relationship between the others has become more and more intimate since the ban. Although they do not live in the same house, they often visit each other, and no one will find it strange.

Others invited Xiu Wei to join.

However, Xiuwei went over and held on to the arm of a palace maid: "Yuan'er, good Yuan'er, I just realized that my lipstick is gone. I know you store it better, can you lend me a box of it for now?"

Yuan Ping used to be a palace lady who applied make-up to the concubine Shi. Due to the nature of her job, she always had the most rouge and gouache. She also had another "job", so she was always generous and of course she would not refuse. Just kidding. As if pushing Xiuwei: "Take it yourself. This is not the first time you have taken advantage of me. You all know where I put my belongings."

Xiuwei thanked her, and as expected, she opened Yuanping's closet and took out a box of lipstick. She glanced at her and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she quickly opened the lid of the pot beside Yuanping's bed. Putting in a bag of "Five Stone Powder" - she knew that since Bincen Pavilion was ordered to be closed, the drinking water of the palace ladies had become limited, so they each kept the drinking water they needed and put them in convenient places.

After doing all this, Xiuwei climbed on Yuanping's arm again: "Good Yuan'er, I'm going back to the room first. If you lack anything, you have to tell me. If I have it, I won't be stingy."

She just let go of her hand, but this time she was held back by Yuan Ping.

"Sister Xiu, don't leave in a hurry. I'm lucky today. I was given a pot of herbal tea by Princess Shi in the afternoon. If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have thought of it. Sister Xiu's body is hot. If you don't take care of yourself in summer, your tongue and gums will develop. It’s easy to get sores and dry lips. No wonder you have to use lip balm in the middle of summer. It’s been a long time since we had the pleasure of drinking herbal tea. Let’s stay and drink one before leaving.”

Xiuwei's scalp suddenly felt tight.

Yuan Ping added: "You two can't take advantage of it in vain. One gets the tea, the other gets the cup, and the herbal tea is placed on the low table next to my bed."

"I won't drink anymore..." Xiuwei smiled dryly, trying to get away.

"It's okay if you don't drink it." Yuan Ping sneered: "If you don't drink it, I won't even know whether the herbal tea is poisonous or not."

"What do you mean?"

Not only Xiuwei was so frightened, but the two palace men were also so frightened that they threw away their leaf cards. After a long time, one of the palace men asked sharply: "Yuan'er, what did you say? That herbal tea is poisonous, but, can it?" We just had a drink!!!”

"It was non-toxic just now, but now that Sister Xiu refuses to drink it, it must be poisonous." Yuan Ping continued to sneer.

"Don't you dare to slander others!" Xiuwei was also anxious: "It was you who poisoned me, and you planned to frame me!"

The palace servant who asked sharp questions just now seemed to have an epiphany and stared at Xiuwei sharply: "I poured out the herbal tea just now and I put it back with my own hands. We can all prove that Yuan'er didn't touch it before you came in. Go over to the pot-holder, you, why do you want to harm Yuan'er?!"

"No, it's not me. She is the eyes and ears of Concubine Qiao. Not only did she want to frame me, she also tried to poison Lady Shi!!!"

"You mean Empress Shi?" Yuan Ping asked: "When we talk to each other, we always refer to the master of the pavilion as empress. Only when reporting matters to outsiders, and occasionally to distinguish ourselves, we will call the master of the pavilion "Empress Shi". You You are so anxious to jump over the wall, but you have already exposed the flaw, don’t even think about it, I have seen through your trick, how can the empress be poisoned?!"

Another palace man finally came to his senses and slapped Xiuwei directly.

"Tell me, who are you listening to, and you actually intend to poison the queen and put the blame on us!!!"

"She won't confess." Yuan Ping also stood up: "But it doesn't matter. Princess Shi should have already invited His Majesty to come to Bincen Pavilion for interrogation in person!"
