"Yes, give it to my sister for evaluation. If you think it's good, I'll send someone to the silk weaving room later." Qingfeng takes back her sight and enters the hospital with her.
When the two maids opened the scroll, it was more than ten feet long. When the scroll was completely unfolded in front of Zhen Zhen, she could not help but praise the numerous famous paintings. What a magnificent picture of the mountains. From a distance, between the misty clouds, the continuous ridge is like a giant dragon. It passes through the sea of clouds. If you look closely, each peak is wonderful, and the situation is abrupt. The most wonderful thing is the misty clouds in the mountains, which seem to float out of the painting paper at any time. Zhen Zhen sighs in his heart that Qingfeng really deserves its reputation. Only relying on different shades of ink and simple and casual brushwork, can he draw such exquisite and atmospheric works.
Zhen Zhen was really convinced. He sighed in a low voice: "sister doesn't have to send it."
Qingfeng gently raised her eyebrows and asked, "why?"
"They can't embroider such works. Sister, you'd better take it for mounting. The emperor will like it very much. " The emperor always likes grand things. Such a rare masterpiece will surely please the emperor. No one can resist Qingfeng, a talented, beautiful and thoughtful woman. Chest suddenly stuffy flustered, Zhen Zhen faltered for a while, green maple hand to help her, just found Zhen Zhen Zhen's hand is very soft, but very cold, green maple asked: "are you ok?" How could her hands be so cold in the late summer afternoon?
Zhen Zhen quickly draws back her hand, and Wu Er comes forward to help her. "I'm tired. Sister, go back." No matter Qingfeng is still in the yard, Zhen Zhen goes straight back to the house, and Wu Er even covers the door.
Looking at the closed door, Qingfeng laughs. It's the first time that she has been driven out. Zhen Zhen, what's wrong? There seems to be something strange about this disease?
The conference hall of the Ministry of punishment
"the Prime Minister of the building." Liu Hong, an official in charge of investigating the Royal Garden incident, saluted respectfully. Although Lou Xiyan still had a mild smile on his face, Liu Hong still swallowed his saliva nervously. After accepting the case, he realized that it was Lou Xiang's wife who fell into the water, and the target of the case was the harem. The emperor also ordered that the case should be dealt with strictly. If the case could not be handled well, he would lose his official position If it's a small matter, I'm afraid that I'll offend the people I shouldn't offend. I can't save my life.
Holding tea in his hand, Lou Xiyan asked: "how is the investigation?"
Liu Hong quickly replied: "one of the four eunuchs killed himself by biting his tongue, while the other three refused to admit that they had murdered the young girl. They used to work in the house of internal affairs. They were little eunuchs under Lu Zhihai. They were usually cautious and didn't want to be troublemakers. "
Bite your tongue and commit suicide?? There was a cold light in Lou Xiyan's eyes. She tapped the tea bowl with her index finger and asked in a deep voice, "who else is there in their family? Where is it now? "
"Two of them were bought into the palace by human traffickers. In the house of internal affairs, there is no family member registered. The other two, whose family members have disappeared."
"Look! I don't want to hear the news that the other three died "for no reason.". Before the incident, the relevant people who had been in and out of the royal garden were all interrogated and investigated, and any suspicious places were reported immediately. " Those who have no family members bite their tongue and commit suicide, while those who have lost their family members die, don't they? It seems that she is really quick to clean up the aftermath. She deserves to be the master who has been floating and sinking in the palace for many years.
"Yes." Lou Xiyan's voice is not high, but Liu Hong has already felt his displeasure. The sense of oppression makes him almost dare not look up.
Gently put down the tea bowl in hand, Lou Xiyan walked out of the meeting hall slowly, still so gentle and elegant, but Liu Hong was sweating.
In Zhengyang palace, Yan Hongtian played with the deep-sea red coral, which was paid tribute by the Northern Qi Dynasty, and said with a smile: "how is the case investigated?"
Lou Xiyan looked down at the list of gifts paid by various countries, and without looking up, she said, "the emperor wants the officials to find out, or can't find out."
"I've given it to you. If you have the ability to find out, just go on." He is happy to see the mother and his favorite minister fight, Xiyan obviously just can't swallow this tone, by the way, tell everyone, Qingling in his heart how important it is. As for the mother?? She really needs someone to let her know that many things she can't do just as she wants to.
Lou Xiyan smiles and doesn't continue this topic. She takes out a bright red post from her sleeve and delivers it directly to Yan Hongtian.
What is it? Yan Hongtian took it and opened it. His face sank at first, and then he burst into a helpless smile: "you really can't wait?" It used to be said that he would get married as soon as the celebration was over. Now it's better for him to get married before the celebration.
Throwing the red sticker on the table, Yan Hongtian leaned his back against the Dragon chair and said with a smile, "old general Lou and the Empress Dowager have no problem?"
Feng Mou light Mi to go up Yan Hong to add interest full of eyes, the floor Xi Yan lightly smile to return a way: "minister tells them, this is the day of emperor favor permit."
Yan Hongtian's smile froze on his lips He used him as a shield! No wonder Lou Muhai didn't dare to have an opinion. The Empress Dowager didn't give him any good looks these days. She didn't even see her when she went to ask for help. It turns out that Xiyan is behind the scenes!
Gauze curtain, incense, on the altar, a golden Buddha with a compassionate smile, standing there quietly, the sound of wooden fish, again and again, quiet and clear, next to the Golden Buddha, red sandalwood beads exude a faint aroma, can make people calm.In front of the statue of Buddha, Yang Zhilan's eyes were closed and her face was calm.
The old lady stood outside the gauze and waited. The sound of the wooden fish stopped gradually. Yang Zhilan's faint voice came from the inner room: "how are things going?"
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager. The matter has been settled. They dare not talk about it." The old lady suddenly fell on her knees and pleaded in a low voice: "this time it's all the negligence of the maidservant. It's the disclosure of the matter. Please punish the Empress Dowager."
The veil was gently lifted up, and Yang Zhilan walked out slowly. The old mother quickly got up and helped her. Instead of being angry, she sighed with a faint smile: "well, Qingling is not dead. This" accident "is not a complete failure. At least the sad family finally found louxi, which has always been perfect Yan also has a soft spot. "
Lou Xiyan, Lou Xiyan, you shouldn't let xuan'er down, you shouldn't be Lou Suxin's good nephew, and you shouldn't fight against AI Jia!
Holding Yang Zhilan to sit down on the wooden chair, the old mother said in a soft voice: "empress dowager, the rest is here."
"Xuan."
A man in his early thirties came into the house after the old lady, knelt down neatly and saluted, "Empress Dowager Jin'an." Simple cloth clothes, medium build make him look unimportant, only the light hidden in those drooping eyes shows his difference.
"Get up." Yang Zhilan took out a gold burning secret letter and said in a cold voice, "take this, hurry to the northwest territory and give it to the leader Mu Cang. You must give it to him in person. "
"Yes." After receiving the secret letter, the man put it in his arms, saluted again, got up and retired.
Yang Zhilan picked up the Buddhist scripture at hand and flipped it casually. The loving expression on her face was quite different from her words just now. The old mother stood behind Yang Zhilan for a long time. She wanted to stop talking several times. Finally, she said anxiously: "the empress dowager, the emperor has been very fond of Qingfeng recently, and other concubines in the harem have been dissatisfied. Qingfeng's arrogance is also rising. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that She doesn't even care about you. "
Yang Zhilan gently smile, calmly back: "the emperor only favor who, these things left to the queen to worry about it."
Hongtian dotes on Qingfeng just because the Xin family is too powerful. He uses Qingfeng to balance the harem. As long as the building falls, Qingfeng will not make waves.
Night
on the 15th day, the moon is very bright. When the maple is lying on the bed, she can see the moonlight shining through the window paper. Yan Hongtian didn't come over for several nights. She was very happy. Just from the afternoon, she felt a dull pain in her abdomen. She thought that kuishui had some discomfort after pushing, but she didn't care. Now she seems to feel more and more painful.
Really can't sleep, Qingfeng hand gently press the abdomen, want to ask the side room Poria cocos to help her see, haven't got up, a shadow from the window quickly passed, only left a shadow on the window paper and disappeared, Qingfeng was frightened, stiff, the body dare not move, is thinking about not to call people, the shadow has agile push open the window lattice, turn over from the window Inside.
The footwork of the man in black was light, and he didn't make a sound when he turned the window. He squatted under the window to observe the situation in the room. Qingfeng lies on his side on the bed, slightly opens his eyes and stares at every move of the man in black. Although there is a veil between them, when his eyes sweep over the bed curtain, Qingfeng's heart is still beating like a drum. Her hand tightly grasps the sheet under the thin quilt, and her breathing almost stops. Qingfeng clenches her lower lip. At this time, the pain can calm her down. It's no use calling people now, waiter Before Wei arrived, she died.
After looking around, the man in Black got up and walked towards the low cabinet beside the screen. In the dark, Qingfeng could only see that the man in black was about seven feet tall and strong. He was dressed in black and his face and hair were tightly wrapped. He opened the drawer of the cupboard and didn't know what he was looking for. Soon he closed the drawer gently, and then quickly turned out of the window. He didn't stay for another moment. The whole process took only half a cup of tea.
Green maple is stiff on the bed, dare not move for a long time, just slightly look out of the window, the moonlight is still bright, through the white window paper, did not see any shadow. Did he leave? After a while, there was still silence outside. Qingfeng got out of bed, went to the door, pushed open a crack in the door, and saw that the door was locked, and there was no one in the yard. A lantern was hanging on the handrail of the stone steps, and the little eunuch half fell asleep on the steps. Everything looks very calm, make sure there is no abnormal, green maple just dare to open the door.
Out of the house, the night wind blowing, maple immediately hit a shiver, at this time, she found that just a cold sweat, her clothes are wet.
Qingfeng whispered: "little chuzi."
Small Chu son lying on the steps motionless, Qingfeng stretched out his hand, patted his shoulder, he did not respond, Qingfeng pushed him again, small Chu son is still motionless.
He?? You're not going to die, are you? The heart that green maple just put down immediately raised again.
"Little chuzi!" Qingfeng shouts and pushes his head hard. The person lying on the ground suddenly moves. Qingfeng steps back. For a long time, little chuzi sits up slowly. Kneading his dizzy head, he raises his head. Facing Qingfeng's iron face, little chuzi is shocked. His chaotic brain suddenly wakes up. He kneels down at Qingfeng's feet and asks repeatedly Rao said: "damn you, slave! Damn it! Please forgive me He never sleeps lazily in his vigil. Today, I don't know what's going on. He is very sleepy all of a sudden, and he doesn't remember when he fell asleep!He's still alive! Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, a series of fright let her some collapse, originally dull pain of the abdomen suddenly hurt badly, holding the doorframe barely stand, Qingfeng whispered: "get up, quickly call Poria cocos to my room."
"Yes, yes." Green maple didn't punish him, small Chu son secretly congratulated at the same time, at the foot of the movement can't have a trace of slow, from the ground to jump up, trot to call people.
Poria cocos was awakened by the sound of slapping the door and asked in a low voice: "who?"
"It's me, chuzi! The empress is looking for you. Let her go quickly. " Poria cocos just asked, small Chu son anxious voice immediately from outside the door.
Poria cocos looked out of the window, dark, quiet around can only hear small Chu son anxiously pacing back and forth outside the door, now or in the middle of the night? Did not think too much, Poria cocos with a dress to open the door.
