Feicui was extremely cautious and kept an eye on her back. Fortunately, the Concubine Chen did not send anyone to follow them, so she probably did not notice anything unusual.
The two found an abandoned palace. Feicui went in and looked around. After making sure that there was no one there, she and Su Qingyu entered an inconspicuous room.
After entering the door, Feicui checked her from head to toe, even checking the soles of her shoes, but did not find anything wrong.
Su Qingyu suddenly asked Feicui, "Where is the gift we gave to Empress Chenfei?"
Feicui was startled and took out the box from her arms. When she opened it, she saw the round fan intact in the box.
"Fortunately, the gift is fine." Jade breathed a sigh of relief.
It is clear what is in the box, so it is unlikely that the other party would tamper with it.
So after reading it, she decided to close it.
"Madam, do you think they cast some kind of evil spell on me while I was unconscious? I heard that there is a kind of poisonous insect in southern Xinjiang. If you are infected with this insect, you will obey the words of the person who cast the poison on you."
Thinking of this, Feicui suddenly became uneasy. If this was true, what if those people asked her to kill Madam or betray Madam?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case, and the more panicked she became. Feicui was steady and rarely felt so helpless.
"Madam, what if that is the case?" Feicui asked with a tearful voice.
Su Qingyu did not respond to her, but opened the closed box again, took out the round fan, and looked at it over and over again.
The handle of the fan is made of rosewood, with a pendant tied to the end.
Su Qingyu looked at the fan handle carefully. She remembered that the fan handles in Shuzhong were mostly made of bamboo. The bamboo was hollow inside, and some girls would put dried flowers in the fan handle to repel insects.
The handle in her hand was made of rosewood. Should the handle of the fan be solid? But she still subconsciously pulled the pendant and saw that the plug was pulled down directly.
This rosewood was actually made hollow.
Su Qingyu narrowed her eyes, looked inside the fan handle, and carefully took out the rolled silk paper inside.
The silk paper was spread out, revealing the pattern on it. In addition to a picture of a bird or animal, there were also some incomprehensible words written on it.
Feicui took a look and said, "Madam, this is the language of the Miao people. Other servants cannot recognize it, but the third line has the words "Da Zhou" written on it, which this servant can recognize."
Su Qingyu asked in surprise: "How come you can recognize the Miao language?"
Feicui explained, "That year when I went to Qianzhou with my wife, I met a girl from Miaojiang by chance. She even taught me how to write the two words 'Da Zhou'."
At that time, they were just squatting on the ground, writing with sticks for fun. Actually, if she were asked to write now, she would not be able to write.
Su Qingyu had an idea in mind after hearing this. She took out another piece of silk paper of similar size from her bosom, rolled it up and stuffed it back into the fan.
As for the hot potato, Su Qingyu carefully put it away, perhaps it could be used in the future.
After putting the round fan back together, Su Qingyu calmed herself down and walked out with the jadeite.
When the master and servant arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there were already quite a few people crowding around the entrance.
When Su Qingyu arrived, many people came forward to greet her and talk to her. She chatted with the ladies for a while before walking inside.
As soon as I entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, I heard several ladies talking in low voices.
"Why didn't I see the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty? The eldest daughter of the Song family didn't come either."
"Haven't you figured this out? The person that the Marquis of Loyalty Mansion hates the most right now is this Concubine Chen. How could she be willing to come and celebrate the birthday?"
Su Qingyu walked past a few people and went inside.
Today, the wife of Lord Chen also came and was talking to the Princess of Rong.
Seeing Su Qingyu, Madam Chen smiled and said, "Madam Shen is here? As expected, the Shen family's feng shui is good for health. I see that Madam Shen has become much plumper."
Ever since Su Qingyu became pregnant, supplements were delivered to the house several times a day. She didn't have any serious morning sickness, but she still gained weight.
Su Qingyu smiled and said, "The weather has been a lot cooler these days, and I slept well."
Princess Rong curled her lips, "You are not afraid of doing too many bad things. You can still sleep when ghosts knock on your door in the middle of the night."
"The evil heart of a man who ruins his marriage will sooner or later rot his heart and lungs."
Everyone knew what Princess Rong was like. She never cared about the occasion or the appearance when scolding people. But even though she didn't care, others couldn't ignore it.
Just like at this moment, Feicui wanted to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Su Qingyu.
He said calmly, "If Princess Rong feels that the Rong and Qin families broke off their engagement because of me, then that's easy to deal with. When the emperor comes, Princess Rong can file a complaint and ask the emperor to punish me."
She couldn't do the action of arguing with Princess Rong in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Princess Rong had no shame, but she still had it.
So the only thing they could do was to bring up the emperor and make her shut up.
Seeing that Princess Rong still wanted to speak, Su Qingyu took two steps forward and said in a cold voice that only the two of them could hear: "You old hag, shut up. If you say one more word, I will let the whole capital know how your daughter abused the younger generation in your family."
"As for your son Rong Yi's scandal, believe it or not, I'll ask the storyteller on East Street to tell it for three days and three nights."
Her eyes were sinister and her tone was cold. Princess Rong took two steps back subconsciously. She swallowed the words that were on her lips.
Under normal circumstances, Su Qingyu would not be like this, and would not even bother to argue with her.
But today she was so nervous that she no longer had the patience.
Madam Qin, who was not far away, came over after hearing this and said to Princess Rong with a serious expression, "What is Princess Rong doing? You are bringing up the past and even implicating innocent people. How about we sit down and talk it over."
The Qin family gave the Rong family enough face in breaking off the engagement. She was not afraid of the Rong family making a scene, and she would see who would be embarrassed when the time came.
She was dissatisfied with this marriage before, and was unwilling to marry a shrew like Rong Jun Wang Fei. It was the Duke who said that Rong Jun Wang was an upright person, and besides, marrying a daughter-in-law was a girl who came to the Qin family, and she had little contact with the Rong family.
Looking back today, Mrs. Qin felt that the marriage was canceled at a great opportunity, and she was a little grateful to Su Qingyu.
When Princess Rong saw Madam Qin coming, she dared not say anything more.
He muttered, "I'll go see if Chaoyun has brought back the birthday gift for Empress Chen."
Su Qingyu looked at Princess Rong's back in confusion, "Did something go wrong with the birthday gift that Miss Li gave to Consort Chen?"
Madam Qin said, "You came late and didn't know that the birthday gift that Li Chaoyun gave to Concubine Chen was the colorful dress that Emperor Wu gave to Concubine Yuan."
"But after entering the palace, Li Chaoyun discovered that the matching jewelry was left in the mansion. So she immediately sent a maid to get it, and she should be back soon."
Su Qingyu's heart moved when she heard this. After chatting with Mrs. Qin for a while, she took the jadeite and went out.
Soon, Danju entered the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, holding the jewelry box.
After entering the room, she saw Mrs. Shen San walking towards the east with her back to her and the jadeite.
She vaguely heard Feicui talking, "Madam, has General Chen not confessed yet?"
Danju was shocked. Was the General Chen they were talking about General Chen Ping? Was he captured by the Shen family?
She knew very well how important Chen Ping was to Li Chaoyun, so she carried her things and followed Su Qingyu carefully.
