The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Chapter 158 Koi Carp Brings Blessings and Zhiyi Brings Disasters

Tu Lanying had no intention of listening to Xue Zhiyi's apology. She was standing there, stepping on the purse and carefully moving her feet towards the Thousand Carp Pond.

As long as the item is destroyed, what does it matter if Xue Zhiyi suspects that she stole it? There is no evidence.

The apology gift has disappeared, and Concubine Song must be furious. If she angers the crown prince, the empress dowager will also hate her. Then Your Majesty will punish her, and even the gods cannot save her.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Xue Zhiyi, and no one noticed that the purse fell silently into the Thousand Carp Pond, quickly absorbed water and sank to the bottom.

But this scene was seen by Yunshuang who was beside Concubine Ge.

On this side, Xue Zhiyi knelt with her brows lowered and eyes closed. Lady Song looked down at her and said softly, "A small gift? What is it?"

Xue Zhiyi just called out: "Lan Ying."

Lan Ying, who had just done something that made her feel guilty, was startled when she was called. She quickly calmed herself down and brought the empty tray covered with red silk to Xue Zhiyi.

Xue Zhiyi stood up and raised his hand to remove the red silk on the tray, only to find that the tray was empty.

Lan Ying quietly observed Xue Zhiyi's expression, but for some reason, there was no panic on Xue Zhiyi's face, and he didn't even bother to look at her.

Xue Zhiyi actually picked up the tray in her hand and placed it in front of Concubine Song, saying, "I specially invited a craftsman from the palace to make this mother-of-pearl lacquer plate for Concubine Song. I selected a pattern of koi carp bringing blessings and carefully carved it for several days. I wish Concubine Song and the royal heir in her belly long-lasting blessings and everything goes well."

I saw that the mother-of-pearl lacquer plate was finely made and sparkled brightly under the sunlight. It was indeed exquisite.

This was exactly the reward Xue Zhiyi asked for from Huo Zhiyu. Using her status as Princess Anle, she asked the palace craftsmen to work overnight to make such a mother-of-pearl lacquer plate for her.

But Lady Song's expression changed.

A tray is still a tray no matter how well decorated it is. How dare Xue Zhiyi send her a tray? How could this be a sincere apology? This was clearly a mockery of what happened that day!

"Xue Zhiyi, what do you mean?" Lady Song said with a wry smile.

But Xue Zhiyi just smiled calmly: "The koi brings blessings and is auspicious. I apologize to the beauty. Although the gift is small, my sincerity is true. I hope the beauty will forgive my unintentional mistake that day."

At this moment, Tu Lanying looked at her empty hands in a daze: No... What on earth is Xue Zhiyi up to? Is this lacquer plate the real apology gift? What about the purse? He kept embroidering it with him for days, could it be that he was trying to divert attention in front of her? This is too unreasonable!

After hearing what Xue Zhiyi said, Concubine Song still felt that she was being weird. Just as she was about to lose her temper, she suddenly heard a gurgling sound coming from the Thousand Carp Pond.

I don't know which concubine exclaimed: "Oh my God, look at the red carp in the pond!"

When everyone looked, they saw that all the carp in the Thousand Carp Pond were swimming towards them in a mighty and orderly manner, as if they had received some orders, and were circling near the shore.

While she was stunned, she saw Xue Zhiyi kneeling down and bowing again: "The koi brings blessings, auspicious scene, the heaven and earth ancestors protect the beauty and the prince in her belly, congratulations, Lady Song!"

Lady Song was also stunned. She stared blankly at the Thousand Carp Pond, then glanced at Xue Zhiyi, and then at the mother-of-pearl lacquer plate. She was still a little confused...

How is this going?

What did Xue Zhiyi do? What was his purpose?

The young eunuch following behind Xue Zhiyi quickly echoed: "Congratulations, Lady Song!"

As a result, more palace maids and concubines of lower rank who did not know what was going on began to join in the greetings: "Congratulations, Lady Song!"

"Congratulations, Miss Song."

"It seems that Lady Song's baby is not bad. Your Majesty will be happy if he knows about it."

Lady Song covered her belly with her hands, feeling surprised and confused... But this kind of thing would not do her any harm, nor would it do Xue Zhiyi any good. She also had no idea what method Xue Zhiyi had used to create such an auspicious sign in front of so many people.

If we say that this matter is beneficial to Xue Zhiyi, it is not without benefits. For example, at this moment, her lacquer plate with koi carp symbolizing blessing is very appropriate.

If she acknowledged that the auspicious sign at this moment was the will of heaven, she could no longer be picky about Xue Zhiyi's apology gift, but should be happy to endure it and forgive Xue Zhiyi in public, and not go back on her word and continue to pursue the matter.

But... she looked at Concubine Ge hesitantly.

Concubine Ge looked unhappy and her smile seemed a little stiff.

"Miss Song, you are so lucky."

Lady Song forced a smile and said, "It's all because I live in Cuiwei Palace and have benefited from your Majesty's blessings."

Concubine Ge only chuckled and said, "Well, today is a good omen from heaven for your Majesty's offspring, and it is also a good omen for Dayong. The Queen Mother will definitely be happy when she knows about it. You should quickly accept the Queen Mother's reward and don't let her down."

"Yes..." Concubine Ge's eyes made Lady Song's heart tremble. She responded and raised her hand to the palace maid and said, "...Take it."

Then he looked at Xue Zhiyi and said, "Today is a good omen from heaven. I won't argue with you. I will accept the gift of apology. I hope you will be careful with your words and actions in the future and don't let the Queen Mother lose face."

Xue Zhiyi bowed with a smile: "Yes, I will follow your instructions!"

……

The main hall of Cuiwei Palace.

Concubine Ge just sat there with a frown on her face, playing with a green date in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking about.

The people in Jianzhang Palace and the concubines who came to congratulate Concubine Song finally dispersed like the group of so-called "auspicious" koi.

Auspicious?

Concubine Ge just thought it was funny. In her eyes, Song was just a dog. She got pregnant with this child because of her favor.

She saw that Song's talents were mediocre and her family had no power, so even if she gave birth to the child, it would not be a threat to her child, so she allowed her to continue the pregnancy.

What auspicious sign? With a person like that, she is only worthy of giving birth to a child as stupid and unloved as her!

The so-called blessing brought by koi fish is nothing but some inferior tricks.

But she couldn't figure out who created this auspicious sign, Lady Song? Or was it Xue Zhiyi who happened to show up with a lacquer tray with a koi fish offering blessings?

At this time, Yun Shuang bowed to Concubine Ge solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Concubine Ge came to her senses and raised her hand to let the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall retreat tacitly.

"explain."

Yun Shuang said, "My lady, I just saw Lan Ying, a maid from Jianzhang Palace, quietly throw something into the Thousand Carp Pond. I suspect this auspicious sign is related to what she threw in there."

"Lan Ying?" Concubine Ge narrowed her eyes: "Is it Tu Lan Ying?"

Yun Shuang nodded: "She is the daughter of Dali Temple Minister Tu Yuxian."

"Tu Yuxian?" Concubine Ge sneered, "His daughter must be crazy to be hanging out with that bitch Xue Zhiyi."
