This palace wants to kill Concubine Xi

It's true that seven or eight of them fainted from fright.

The queen smiled and said, "Don't panic. Let me ask you again, was Concubine Xi here last night?"

The aunt in charge tried her best to flirt with the silly girl, but the silly girl just didn't understand, and said, "Yes!"

"Heh..." The queen laughed lightly, "This is amazing. ♀ Concubine Sheng Xie Nian, you said you were not here, but someone saw you again; you all said that Concubine Xi had never been to Changchun Palace, but someone else I have seen Concubine Xi... Concubine Nian, tell me, how should I make a decision?"

Nian Suyuan thought for a moment, and there was a calculation in her heart.She also smiled and said: "The concubine was indeed not here last night. As for Concubine Xi...the empress might as well summon her two maids to ask, okay?"

The queen was slightly surprised.What Nian Suyuan said was too bad for her.If Concubine Xi's maid doesn't help Concubine Xi, can she still help her?

The two maids serving Concubine Xi were quickly brought away.

Nian Suyuan suggested that they should be separated and questioned one by one.The queen agreed.

As a result, the older maid said that neither Concubine Xi nor Concubine Nian had ever been to Changchun Palace, and Concubine Xi accidentally slipped and fell into the flowers on the way to Changchun Palace; But the young maid said that Concubine Xi was waiting for Concubine Yu in the Changchun Palace, and she suddenly went crazy while waiting, as if she bumped into something unclean.

At this moment, Concubine Xi woke up.

She heard the speeches her maids gave to the queen in the gauze tent, and her whole face turned green.

"Tell me, why is this?..." The queen fiddled with her nails leisurely, with a faint smile in her eyes.

Nian Suyuan said for the third time: "The only thing I know is that I didn't come here last night, but I dreamed about my two children. I think it's because of the Obon Festival."

"Nian Guifei is reminding me, does one of them know some old things?"

"The concubine never said anything."

[The queen guesses. (Rebirth of the Proud Sword World)]

[She guessed that the matter of Concubine Xi was related to me, and she guessed that the older court lady deliberately concealed the details of "Concubine Xi hit a ghost" because she knew a lot of old things. ]

[Do you want……]

[No, can't say.Now in this harem, except myself, she must not trust anyone.The empress had already held Concubine Xi in one hand, but now Hongli is the sure candidate for the crown prince.If I insist on "fleeing back to justice", there is no guarantee that the queen will not kill me for the "overall situation"...]

[Also, I must never let Mingjiao know that I have mastered everything in the past.I would rather let her go for the time being, and plan again in the future.If I fall down this time, there will be no second person in this world who can avenge me and A Sifu'er. ]

Nian Suyuan was thinking a lot before she was about to speak, but she saw Concubine Xi rushing out from the gauze tent, her hair disheveled and her face ferocious, she slapped her maid a dozen times across the face: "Why did I go to Changchun Palace last night?" ? You little bastard is not afraid of chewing your tongue!"

Is this out of embarrassment?

Concubine Xi, who was always gentle and pleasant, unexpectedly became angry from embarrassment?

Nian Suyuan was surprised, but also heaved a sigh of relief.She guessed right, Concubine Xi was more reluctant than she to let others know what happened last night.After all, encountering ghosts in the palace is not a trivial matter, if Yinzhen insists on investigating this matter thoroughly, there may be some old bad debts.At that time, let alone the queen, I am afraid that even the prince will not be able to protect her.After all, she was just a concubine Xi, while Honghui, Hongyun, and Fuyi who died were ten times better than Hongli.

After a while, Mingjiao was tired and stared at the maid in front of her out of breath.Nian Suyuan looked up at the queen, and found that the queen had lowered her eyes, unable to see her eyes clearly, with a vague sneer on the corner of her mouth; looking at Concubine Yu and Concubine Ning, Concubine Yu was still pretending to be stupid, while Concubine Ning The concubine didn't know what happened at all; looking at the maids, some of them looked at each other in blank dismay, and some had a sudden understanding, but the round-faced and silly girl was obviously dumbfounded.

Concubine Xi denies that she has ever been to Changchun Palace.

Concubine Nian denied that she had ever been to Changchun Palace.

Who was it that they saw last night?Ghost? !

"Okay, this matter is over, according to this palace, let's forget it." The queen waved her hand in a disinterested manner.She could see that none of the parties involved wanted to make this a big deal, and she didn't even want to.After all, the empress dowager's coffin is still in Shoukang Palace, so if there is one less thing, then there is nothing less.

Nian Suyuan smiled and said yes.

Ming Jiao raised her head and glanced at Nian Suyuan.Nian Suyuan could see clearly, her eyes were bloodshot, and her eyes were also bruised, she looked extremely ferocious.

The queen spoke a few more casual words and left.

Mingjiao's gaze swept among the maids, and after a long time, he uttered a word: "Return to the palace!"

*****

Only a few hours later, Nian Suyuan heard that a new group of maids had been released from Yanxi Palace and Changchun Palace.

She ordered Ruyu to inquire, and the two maids who followed Mingjiao that day were indeed on the release list, but they didn't go home.And the round-faced girl who was "righteous and strict" from before somehow smashed the sapphire plate given by Concubine Nian and the jade screen given by Concubine Xi one after another, and was sent to Xinzheku.

night.

Nian Suyuan still went to watch and cry for the Queen Mother in plain clothes, and Mingjiao with red eyes was kneeling opposite her.What happened last night has been suppressed, and no news has been revealed to the previous court. Yin Zhen even forgot that today is the Obon Festival.It was because the palace invited someone to perform the ceremony, so he remembered, and led the juniors to watch the ceremony.

Third elder brother is here.

The Eighth Prince is here.

Princess Yi is also there.

Nian Suyuan moved her seat quietly, walked in from Princess Liyi, patted Roujia, and said in a low voice: "Go talk to your thirteenth uncle and thirteenth aunt, I haven't seen you for a few days."

Roujia was about to cheer, but she stopped her with her eyes.She rubbed Roujia's little face, forced to rub a smiling face into a weeping face, and then whispered: "Remember to cry today, and cry even if you are happy, you know?"

Roujia sniffed, laughed... oh no, she cried.

Nian Suyuan looked at San Age Hongshi a few more times, and found that his eyes had changed and became gloomy.Concubine Qi deliberately moved and moved, moved to Hongshi's side, and asked him in a low voice why he didn't come to pay her respects for so many days.Hongshi shook his head, glanced at the Eighth Prince who was not far away, and said nothing.

Sure enough, something was wrong.

Nian Suyuan looked away, and glanced at the masters who were doing the work.Aside from that, they did it quite solemnly for the Obon Festival.Burning paper bridges, sending little ghosts, and large banners were placed all the way from Shoukang Palace to Jiaotai Hall. The sound of wooden fish has never stopped, and there are long scriptures that no one can understand...

She had a hunch that this night might be quite difficult.

"Your Majesty's Concubine."

Princess Yi did not know when she came to Nian Suyuan's side, and said in a low voice, "Is there any news about General Nian recently?"

Why is it the second brother again? !

Nian Suyuan was horrified, and deliberately pulled Princess Yi away, and begged sincerely, "Please give me advice."

"I don't dare to be a guide." Princess Yi held Roujia, her eyes were full of the tenderness of a mother, "I just heard from my prince recently that Qinghai is in chaos, and the emperor intends to appoint General Nian as a general. It's just that Jiu Beizi... has a lot of money .” She vaguely revealed some meaning, but did not make it clear.

Nian Suyuan turned her mind a few times, and asked tentatively, "I heard that the Northwest is lonely, but I don't know if it's true?"

Concubine Yi had a hint of approval in her eyes, but she didn't reply, instead she said: "According to my lord, when the first emperor ascended the throne, there was only more than 1000 million taels of silver left in the treasury...he checked the accounts at the Ministry of Accounts for more than half a year. Woolen cloth."

There is no money in the national treasury, that is to say, there is no salary in the army, and Qinghai is in chaos, Jiu Beizi Yunzhen is a well-known God of Wealth, and Nian Gengyao, as the chief general, is also a self-assertive personality...

Nian Suyuan only felt that her fingertips were cold.

Princess Yi shook her hand, and said in a low voice: "There is always a way, isn't there? I just ask the noble concubine to persuade the general, not only for his own sake, but also for the sake of the Nian family. Don't offend the emperor." scale."

Nian Suyuan was scared. ♀CEO Husband, don’t pretend to be innocent

Of course she knew that it was difficult to be a general, and it was even more difficult to be a victorious general.

Nian Gengyao was fighting in the northwest, of course she had no reason to say anything.But if the national treasury is empty and the army cannot be paid, and the God of Wealth next to him ticks his fingers again... I am afraid that Nian Gengyao will turn against him, at least many soldiers under his command will turn against him.

She managed to regain her composure, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Princess."

Princess Yi smiled, let go of her hand, led Roujia again, and went back to the wives.Roujia rolled her eyes, looking at this and then that, not understanding what they were talking about.

After thinking about it, Nian Suyuan always felt that this was a hurdle she couldn't get past.She knew that Nian Gengyao was too arrogant and domineering in the end. Firstly, he got Yinzhen's taboo, and secondly, he fell into the tricks of some people. In the end, he ended up in a terrible end.But now she can't do anything except remind Nian Gengyao to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and not to trust others.

As a woman, being in the deep palace is really too restrictive.

The concubines were whispering.

Last night, the commotion in the West Sixth Palace was really too loud; even if it didn't spread to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, it had already spread quietly among the concubines and maids of the various palaces.The most discussed one was naturally that Concubine Xi had run into a ghost.

In the end, there was everything to say.It is said that Concubine Xi was passed down successively by Emperor Mengxian, and that Concubine Xi fell down due to slippery roads in rainy days.
