Half an hour later, Pinellia was taken to the Xihong Hall of Bixiaotang, and the wife could only wait anxiously outside.
For this Xihong Hall, Pinellia was both familiar and unfamiliar. When she was a girl-in-law at the palace, the current king of Zhennan was still the grandfather of the world, and the first princess and the grandfather were the grandfather of the world. .
Pinellia was a girl who served in Bixiaotang. For her, here is no different from her home. At that time, she was ambitious, thinking about being the big girl and capable person next to the first princess. That happened ...
Pinellia lowered her eyebrows and raised the skirt to cross the threshold, but it was just a few feet away. To her, it seemed like the end of a world.
"See Princess Shi."
Banxia plopped and knelt in the hall. The moment she knelt, she couldn't help raising her eyes and glancing at Shi Zifei quickly.
Shi Zifei is only fifteen or sixteen years old. Her dark hair pulls a simple braid, and she wears a rose-colored ten-color broccoli gardenia, reflecting her skin like snow and glowing.
She was sitting gracefully on a rosewood chair. She seemed to be as thin and weak as if the wind was about to break. On the small slap face, those twinkling eyes seemed to catch people at a glance. Seeing through, almost scared to look straight ...
"Sister of the world, slaves are wrong, slaves have never stolen the jewelry of the first princess!"
Pinellia slumped her head heavily, her chest lowered, her head bowed, and a crunching look. Under the backlight, a dark shadow formed on her face, making her expression unclear.
Finally found someone. Nangong Ai was not in a hurry to question Pinellia, just to look at her quietly.
Seeing each other's descriptions, you know that Pinellia has been following the current host family well these years. Since she returned to Luo Yuecheng for two years, why didn't she come to visit her mother? Why did her mother look at her secretly, so secretly, so blindly?
If she has no ghost in her heart, why not! ?
Thinking, there was a cold flash in Nangong Yan's eyes.
That day, when Nang Gongzi was encountered by Jinxiufang to buy brightly colored materials, Nangong Yu felt a little bit wrong. She has read the information of Mrs. Luo on the roster. Mrs. Luo lost her husband at an early age and had no relatives and no reason. She had only one daughter, Pinellia.
Nangong Yu now suspected that maybe Pinellia had gone back and forth to Luo Yue City.
So, under her orders, Xie Erxing went to Li Sanshui's family, Le Ye, and others to ask questions, and deliberately made the matter bigger and bigger, all the way to Lady Luo's ears. No, Mrs. Luo took the initiative to take They found Pinellia!
Nangong's eyes were half drooping, and he slowly took a sip of tea on the edge of the cup. After putting down the tea cup, this gave him a wink.
Xuan Er nodded knowingly, cleared her throat, and said, "Girl Pinellia, since you have never stolen the first princess' jewellery, how could you get kicked out of the palace with heavy punishment?" Xuan Er did not wait for the other party to reply, He rushed and said, "Is it like Wangfu's rumor, that you dared to seduce the king when you ate the bear heart and leopard ?!"
Seduce the Lord? !! Pinellia was dumbfounded, and finally knew what awesome words were, and hurriedly said, "Slavery never seduce ... seduce the lord! Sister and concubine, slavery is wrong." Pinellia was not afraid.
Xuan Er snorted suspiciously, carefully counted the rumors heard from the old man in the palace, and heard Pinxia's eyes dumbfounded, and repeatedly denied.
Suir suddenly laughed, but said sharply but in a sharp tone: "So Pinellia, for what reason did you get sold off?"
Although well-prepared, Pinellia was still trembling, instantly stiff as a stone sculpture.
She still bowed her head and hurriedly replied: "Slave ... Slave made a mistake .... Slave accidentally fell to the Guanyin, the enshrined prince ..." She tried to calm herself and said to herself, even if the son The concubine found the old man in the princess's yard, and she could only get this answer.
Believe it or not, after all, she is no longer a slave to the palace. As long as she clenches her teeth and lives, she will not treat herself even if she is a concubine!
He Er can't see Pinellia's mind, and a sarcastic arc is drawn from the corner of his mouth.
Knowing the current affairs is Junjie. After nineteen years, Shi Zifei made every effort to find a slave who had been sold for many years. Didn't Pinxia think that a frivolous perfunctory would kill them?
Xier looked at Nangong Xiong inquiringly, and deliberately asked: "Sir concubine, it seems that Pinellia is unwilling to tell the truth."
"Slavery is telling the truth!" Pinellia looked up in excitement, her eyes turned red when she didn't know when. She pretended to be strong, but couldn't hide the inner strength of the heart.
Nangong Yu didn't want to speak with Pinellia, and the old saying goes: "Eat the king of food, loyal to the king." As a slave of the palace, Pinellia didn't understand the simplest truth. In case of trouble, I just want to protect myself. How can there be such a good thing in this world!
"Bai Hui, go to Yu's House." Nangong whispered to Bai Hui, and Bai Hui immediately took his order.
Yu House is the current home of Pinellia. When Pinellia heard it, his face turned pale, and he faintly guessed what Shi Zifei wanted to do ...
Even if the host family reuses itself, I am afraid that they will not violate the Zhennan Palace for their own sake ...
Time passed by Pinxia's uneasy speculation, her face became increasingly ugly, but she held the last hint of hope, maybe, maybe ...
Nangong Aya picked up a book and turned it around leisurely, as if Pinellia didn't exist at all. The thrush on the side carefully served Nangong's tea, and no one in the hall took care of Pinellia.
For Pinellia, it was even more uncomfortable than when he was interrogated by his uncle.
She was almost restless and felt that time was so hard ...
I don't know how long it took, Bai Hui returned, and a small red lacquered wooden box was added in his hand.
Pinellia stared deadly at the wooden box, her pupils shrinking. She recognized this box, this is the box where Madam Yu put her deed!
My own guess is good, Sister-in-law really ... gave herself to ...
Thinking, Pinellia's body shook twice, shaking.
Bai Hui walked beside Pinellia without squinting. After saluting Nangong, she opened the wooden box in her hand and looked at her. Then the box was sent to Pinellia.
This is his own deed for sale. The cinnabar handprints on it have been so red and **** for so many years that they are extremely dazzling.
A thin layer of water vapor floated in front of Pinellia's eyes.
Shi Zifei didn't say anything, but the threat was already obvious.
There is only one deed in this box, without her husband, without her children ...
If she continues to die, most of the world's concubines will use means to deal with themselves, to separate their husbands and wives, and this is only the first step.
From now on, her own deed is in the hands of the concubine, and the mother's deed is also in the royal palace. The mother has worked hard to raise herself since she was a child. Does she really have the heart to affect her ...
He is not without relatives and without reason.
Pinellia's eyes showed despair. His blushing complexion was even paler and almost white.
At that time, she spared no effort to save her life at the expense of twenty boards ... Nineteen years have passed. When she thought that past could pass away in time, she did not expect to escape in the end. After all, it should be an old saying: it is a blessing not a curse, but a curse cannot be avoided!
For a moment, the last line of defense in her heart collapsed ...
I do n’t know when Pinellia was already in tears, she nodded her head respectfully and choked and said, "Sir concubine, slaver said, she also hopes that concubine will not anger the slaver's mother, she knows nothing ... Pinxia didn't dare to tell Mrs. Luo, nor did she dare to tell anyone. She had intended to rot this secret in her belly all her life.
"Let's go." Nangong gave the two words sinkingly, without moving.
Pinellia settled down and tried hard to recall the events of that year, and everything seemed to be still fresh.
Maybe it's because she never dare forget ...
"It's almost nineteen years ... slavery still remembers that it was the eighth day of November. After lunch, after slavery suddenly found that one of his earrings was missing, he searched the road and ended up passing by Bixiaotang. In the garden, I saw the emperor's grandmother Lu Ye dumped a pot of medicinal residue under a Guangyulan in the corner. At that time, the slaves didn't care, but after the slaves passed the Guangyulan the next morning, And found that most of the leaves on the tree had fallen ... "
Pinellia's white lips trembled slightly, and after a pause, she continued, "After two more days, the slave Princess heard that the former princess, who had always been good, suddenly felt abdominal cramps, but soon she was fine again ... At that time, the slaves couldn't help but think about whether there was any problem with the medicine residues that had been dumped by Lu Yan ... "
"Girl Pinellia, since you feel suspicious, why don't you take the matter to the master in the palace?" Bai Hui's tone didn't fluctuate.
Pinellia flinched, only to feel that the eyes of the girls in the hall were a bit cold and disdainful ... how she didn't understand the reason, but she spoke lightly!
Pinellia took a deep breath and said, "Sir concubine, Lu Yan is the first person next to the first princess. Since she was a child, the first princess has grown up. The slave is only a third-class girl in the yard. Tooth, even if the slave said it, who would believe it! "It's hard not to be bitten by Lu Yan, not only her, but even her family.
Besides, if everything is as she guessed, there must be someone behind Lu Yan's instructions, which can make the identity of the person who moved her is not simple, even more frightening is that the person they want to start is the first princess Dafangshi, In this southern Xinjiang, in this palace, who dares to have such courage ...
Today, Pinellia still dare not think about it.
No matter who is behind the scenes, if you find that she has inadvertently seen it and wants to kill her a little girl, it can't be easier.
Pinellia made a deliberate mistake, and she had to make a big mistake, so she accidentally broke the seat of Guanyin Guanyin, and was "just happened" to be seen by Lu Yan. The next development As she expected ... Later, when Pinxia learned of the death of Princess Xia, she was even more fortunate that she had made the right choice. Otherwise, her low life would have been gone!
None of the people present was stupid. How could they not know the selfishness of Pinellia? She scorned her lips and said in a **** way: "Why talk so eloquently, just talking about life and fearing death!"
Pinellia was pale and pale, her lips trembled and speechless. She is afraid of death, but who is not afraid of death!
"As a slave of the first princess, you should bear the worries of the monarch. You know that Lu's behavior is suspicious, but you let it go. You know that the cause of the death of the first princess is suspicious, but you don't conceal it, which is equivalent to an accomplice." Xie Er's tone was sharp. "Slaves like you, which host dares to ask?"
Several girls in the hall looked at Pinellia with a scornful look. Even if Pinellia could speak again, he could not say a word for a moment.
"Sister of the world!" Banxia cried and slammed her head several times, "Slave knows what is wrong, just ask Shizi not to be angry with the slave's family ... No matter how she condemns the slave, she has no regrets!" She Humbled on the ground, dare not move.
Nangong looked coldly at Pinellia.
Pinellia may be a good daughter, a good wife, a good mother, but she is not a "good" slave to the host family.
This matter is indeed complicated, and it is indeed not something she can solve, but when the old master was still alive, even if the Zhennan king was not reliable, she could go and sue the old master and let the old master decide.
But she did nothing ... she just wanted to avoid it and keep herself safe.
If she had spoken earlier, the princess would not have left so early, leaving Xiao Yi alone ...
"Come, take them down first," Nangong said lightly.
She certainly has to deal with Pinellia, but not now.
She still has Pinellia, and when they find Lu Yan, let them confront each other!
Pinellia was quickly taken down, the hall was quiet again, and the atmosphere was a little dignified.
Nangong's face was sinking like water, picked up the tea cup, and lowered it again.
Today, the first princess has made some slight progress. What Pinxia said just now has made Nangong Yu more alert. No matter who is the main actor behind this incident, she must be careful and must not be scared ... ...
"Second concubine," Chen Er observed the look of Nangong Chen, carefully, "that Lu Xun ... when the slaves registered the roster, they heard people mention it."
Seeing Nangong Yan raising his eyebrows to signal that he continued to say, Yaner continued: "Soon after the death of the first princess, Lu Yan asked the old princess to leave the house and return to her hometown. The old princess agreed ..."
There was a flash of light in Nangong's eyes, and he asked, "Hey, go and find out where Lu Ye's hometown is, and then ... Bai Hui, you let Zhu Xing send someone to take that Lu Ye back!"
"Yes, concubine." Ma'er looked back solemnly.
Quietly in the hall, it seemed so quiet that everyone's breathing could be heard. It wasn't until the girl-in-law came to say that Zhennan King asked Shizi to go over, which broke the silence.
Nangong Yu slightly raised his head, raised his petting skirt, and walked out.
Zhennan Wang still saw her in the study. After seeing the ceremony, she heard Zhennan asking kindly: "Sir concubine, the age is close, there are many trivial matters in the palace recently, can you be busy?"
With a smile on his lips, Nangong said respectfully, "Father Wang is troubled. Daughter-in-law is too busy."
Zhennan King nodded comfortably, and said, "My King knows that you have always been capable. However, you have many new years and many miscellaneous things. You are also the first year to do something in the palace, and Wang thought, let your aunt come to help you. Second, what do you think? "
Nangong Yan stood there with a low eyebrow and, based on her understanding of King Zhennan, he was afraid that he could not think of such "thoughtfulness". It reminded that Mrs. Qiao had just come to "visit" Xiao Fangshi a few days ago. It is not difficult to speculate who proposed it.
Nan Gongyu guessed it right, and it was indeed Mrs. Qiao's proposal to Zhennan King. The King of Zhennan also felt reasonable after thinking about it. Despite the ability of Shi Zifei, she never managed this princely palace, especially during the Chinese New Year, and sacrificed her ancestors. Shi Zifei is the new bride. If the rules are wrong, what is wrong? It's not good. So Zhennan Wang thought about it and simply called her over.
"Father Wang is kind, daughter-in-law is grateful. It's just ..." Nangong said with a little embarrassment. "Let's celebrate the New Year in the palace, and the new year in Qiao's house. I'm afraid my aunt is too busy. Not to mention, my daughter-in-law has heard of cousin Lan recently I'm not feeling well, and she often needs the care of her aunt. How can her daughter-in-law bother her? "
The King of Zhennan frowned, and fortunately, the other is that Qiao Ruolan is crazy now, and she is carrying it everywhere. She ca n’t control herself in Qiao's house, but if she said some crazy words in Wang ’s house like last time The language is not good. Anyihou will return sooner or later.
"Father King." Nangong Yan continued obediently. "Daughter intends to have sister-in-law and sister-in-law to help, if there is something difficult to decide, and you are the father-king, you can also mention something."
Also, there is still myself, what is really happening, Shi Zifei came to ask herself! Ok! It's better to let the older sister stay in Qiao's house, and let Qiao Ruolan do not cause anything else. Thinking about it that way, King Zhennan said, "You've worked harder for the concubine in that life ..."
Nangong bowed his knees.
At this moment, the door sounded, and the head of Zhennan King followed his nephew to report, "Master Wang, there is a good news, a great victory in the city!"
The King of the South and the Palace of the Nangong were in full joy, and the King of the South even forgot that the Palace of the Nangong was still here, and couldn't wait to command: "Someone in!"
A warrior in the uniform stepped into the study, knelt on one knee, and clenched his fist: "Master Ye, Shizi led the Southern Army to recapture the city of Dengli on December 17! Killed nearly 10,000 enemies." He presented the good news in his hand.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
The king of the south of the town read the magnificent newspaper at a glance. He couldn't stand up from the resort, even three sounds, and the boulder in his heart finally fell: Deng Licheng finally regained it. If the old father re-enters the dream, he will As for speechlessness. Xiao Yi finally has a look like a son!
The smile on Nangong's lips cannot be masked, and Dengli City has already won it. This is the last city occupied by Nanliang.
The battle with Nanliang will be suspended. After this battle, neither Nanliang nor Baiyue would pose any further threat to southern Xinjiang, and Ai would no longer have to fight out.
Great!
After coming out of the Zhennan King's study room, Nangong moaned and smiled to the two maids who accompanied him: "Today's great joy, pass on my life, and I will reward you with a month's worth of money."
Thrush said succinctly: "The slave then thanked the deceased for his wife."
Nangong Yu was in a good mood and said, "Go to the Little Buddha Hall first, I will give the grandfather, grandmother and mother-in-law incense." She is going to tell them this good news and ask them to bless Ai in the spirit of heaven!
Bai Hui and Thrush responded, and accompanied Nangong Yu to the Buddhist temple.
The small Buddhist temple in the mouth of Nangong is located in the southeast corner of the backyard of the palace. It contains the tablets of the old king, the old princess and the first princess Dafangshi. After returning to southern Xinjiang, she would come to the Buddhist temple every year on the fifteenth day of the year and the festival.
The mother-in-law of Shoufotang lowered her head and opened the door with a scented candle to welcome the concubine.
The Buddha Hall is quiet and solemn, filled with a faint smell of cigarettes, lingering around the tip of the nose, making people calm down.
Nangong Yan became incense as usual, scratched his head, and then folded his hands, murmured about Xiao Yi's thing to Dafang's tablet ...
The girls were all waiting outside the Buddhist hall, and they did not dare to make a sound, and quietly around.
After a while, Nangong Yu opened her eyes, stood up with a smile, and left the small Buddhist temple.
With a squeak, the door of the Buddhist temple was closed again, and the cigarette in that room was closed behind ...
Nan Gongxi walked along the bluestone slab path, and said, "Let's go and see the magnolia plant that Pinellia said."
