Don’t Show the Son

  Chapter 90 Self-humiliation

  The noble concubine empress’s opening made the hall temporarily quiet.

  Is it true that the gift given by the little girl from the Xue family to the empress dowager was actually borrowed by the imperial concubine in advance?

The ladies in the main hall are far away, and they can’t see clearly the beads in the hands of the imperial concubines, but the concubines in front of them can see clearly. Zen Master Hui Kong was a person from a hundred years ago, and his belongings must have been a hundred years ago. How could this bead in the hands of the imperial concubine's old object be so glamorous.

  Where is this a hundred years ago, I am afraid it was almost the same a hundred days ago.

  Obviously, the imperial concubine is deliberately sheltering the little girl of the Xue family, let alone, today’s matter involves the empress dowager, even the empress, there is no way to intercede for Xue Ning'er, but the imperial concubine can.

  Because the imperial concubine’s mother was the late former eldest princess, and the former eldest princess was the biological daughter of the Queen Mother.

  The relationship between the imperial concubine and the empress dowager is not comparable to the concubine in the harem.

  In this harem, including the empress and empress, can only call her the queen mother, only the imperial concubine and empress can call the emperor and grandmother, close and close, you can tell from one name.

  What makes them puzzled is that the Xue family and the imperial concubine are not relatives, why should she protect this little girl?

  Concubine Shu looked at the concubine empress, to be precise, she looked at her eyes, and soon she withdrew her gaze, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

I see.

Speaking of it, the little guy named Lin Xiu who used to make ice for Qianqiu Palace for a month seems to be Zhang’er’s only friend. These days, she often hears Lin Xiu’s name from Zhang’er, and she sees it. After coming out, her lonely son really regarded Lin Xiu as a friend.

The empress dowager smiled and took the string of sandalwood beads from the imperial concubine, gave her a weird look, then smiled, and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, the little girl will go back first, Mother Gui. , Watch and appreciate..."

  Xue Ning'er sat back to his place in a daze, and was rewarded by the Empress Dowager, his head was a mess.

  Song Yu Zhi Yinfang clenched, but he didn't expect that the things that were originally tenable would be resolved so easily, and he felt bored and angry.

After the imperial concubine came out to relieve Xue Ning'er, the matter had already passed, but at this moment, one of the imperial concubines came out and said, "This string of Buddha beads is obviously a new object, and it is not owned by Zen Master Hui Kong. Relic, I don’t know why the imperial concubine deceived the Queen Mother and deliberately shielded her.

  At this point, the hall was silent, and the needles could be heard.

It was Concubine Song Xian who was also one of the four concubines. The concubine Xian was in the harem. Although there was no concubine to be favored, she had her own heirs, and she was also the king of Qi who was flourishing in the limelight. She herself was also the daughter of the Song family. , With all this, you can also fight against the court in the harem and the queen and concubine.

  When everyone was pretending to be silly and silent, she just stood up and ruthlessly dismantled the imperial concubine empress, which was obviously involved in the battle of the concubine.

  Song Yuzhi saw this, smiling again at the corner of his mouth.

After being dismantled by Concubine Song Xian, the noble concubine's expression did not change at all. She glanced at Concubine Song Xian faintly, and said: "Today is the grandmother's birthday. This palace originally didn't want to affect the interest of the emperor's grandmother because of these things. My palace does not oppose..."

  She looked at Xue Ning'er and said, "That pretty girl from the Xue family, come out."

  Xue Ning'er got up and walked out immediately. Although she and the imperial concubine are not familiar with her, the empress is obviously protecting her, so she naturally has to cooperate with the imperial concubine.

  The imperial concubine looked at Xue Ning'er and asked, "Are you sure you put that string of beads in the box?"

  Xue Ning'er nodded earnestly, and said: “Yes, I opened it and checked it just after entering the hall, but I didn’t know what happened later, and the box was empty.”

  The imperial concubine empress smiled at her and said: "Don't be afraid, this palace is for you."

  Seeing the smile of the imperial concubine empress, Xue Ning'er's heart quickly settled down.

Later, the imperial concubine came to the queen dowager again, and said: "The imperial grandmother, the concubine thinks that the Xue family will not entertain you with an empty box on the day of your birthday. It must be a criminal who secretly designed and framed you. , This is not to put the royal family in the eyes, do not put the emperor's grandmother in the eyes, this person should still be in this hall, it is better to close the hall door, search for it, I believe she will be able to get her out."

  At this time, it was Concubine Song Xian’s turn to hesitate. She thought for a while, and said, “Queen dowager, this is not very good. Those present today are all the nobles of various houses...”

The empress dowager did not even look at her, waved her hand, and said, "The imperial concubine is right. This person dared to frame the government office and destroy the birthday banquet of the mourning family. This is really bold and must be severely punished. People, close the door of the temple, and we must find out that person today."

  Immediately, two mothers walked to the door and closed the door of the temple.

  A court lady in the corner turned pale when she saw this.

The harem concubine looked at Concubine Song Xian, and sighed in their hearts. Concubine Song Xian didn't know what to think, but wanted to trouble the concubine empress in front of the Queen Mother. Isn't this enough to support her?

  Since the death of the first emperor and the former princess, the imperial concubine and her majesty have been the closest relatives of her old family. How could she not be towards the imperial concubine and an outsider?

  This sudden change also caused a commotion in the hall.

  Many of those present were wealthy and wealthy women who were suspected of being thieves and let others search their bodies. This was no small humiliation to them. Even if the order was the Queen Mother, they could not accept it.

At this moment, the concubine Shu came out and said: "The Queen Mother, the famous ladies present here, would not do this kind of thing if they wanted to, but some of the court ladies in the harem were not strictly disciplined, and they often stole property from the palaces. The biggest, it's better to search from the maids first, if there is no harvest, it will not be too late to investigate."

  The Queen Mother nodded, and said: "Concubine Shu has a point, Grandma Gui, you can do this."

There are about a dozen maids serving in this hall tonight. Soon, all the maids were gathered together, and Madam Gui searched them one by one. As the maids eliminated suspicion, they stood at the end. A court lady, her face was extremely pale, her body trembled slightly uncontrollably...

After a while, all the palace ladies except her have been checked.

When Mother Gui came to her, the maid knew she couldn't hide it anymore. Her face was pale and bloodless, she knelt on the ground with a puff, put a string of Buddhist beads on her palm, and said with tears: "It's a slave who has been obsessed with her heart and stole it for a while. Baby, the crime of slavery deserves ten thousand deaths, the empress dowager spares her life, the empress dowager spares her life!"

Madam Gui picked up the string of Buddhist beads and saw that the beads were mottled with paint, and the beads were also very old. They looked like antiquities. She looked at the court lady who was kneeling on the ground bitterly, and said angrily: "Bold slave, you are so big courage!"

  The stolen goods were obtained and the court lady had no room for sophistry, so she confessed immediately.

It turned out that she had awakened an extraordinary ability in her early years. As long as her hand touched the outer wall of the box, box, etc., she could take out the contents in the air. Just now, when she poured the fruit drink to Xue Ning'er, she quietly I got the buddha beads, so when Xue Ning'er presented the brocade box, it was obviously tied by a ribbon. The brocade box that had not been opened was empty.

  Although the Buddha beads were found, the matter is far from over.

  The court lady was brought to the front, and Grandma Gui looked at her and asked: "Who instructed you to steal the Buddha beads?"

   Kneeling on the ground, the trembling maidservant trembled: "No, no one instructed the slave maid. It was the slave maid who became greedy when he saw the money..."

A little court lady gave her great courage and did not dare to touch the birthday gift of the Queen Mother. Mother Gui glanced at her and said lightly: "It seems that you don't want to say it anymore. Check it out, who is she? The maid of the palace?"

  Her voice fell, Empress Xian walked forward with a calm face and said: "No need to check, she is from the Ningxia Palace of the palace."

  She originally just wanted to embarrass the concubine, but she didn't expect that, after investigating this case, she was found in her body.

  This palace lady is a member of her Ningxia Palace. Hasn't she become the biggest object of suspicion?

  Song Xianfei looked at her coldly and asked: "Say, who made you do this!"

The concubine Xian was involved. The maid knew she couldn’t hide it anymore. Song Yuzhi, who was sitting there with her hand out of her hand, had a pale face, said, “It’s Miss Yuzhi, it’s the young lady who said she had an enemy with Miss Xue Jia. Let me steal her birthday gift so that she can make a fool of herself in front of the Queen Mother. It was Miss Yuzhi who asked me to do this..."

  In the hall, many people showed weird expressions.

  Why the concubine, the concubine, if she didn’t say anything just now, the concubine’s concubine wouldn’t be able to check it down. It’s okay to check it out, and it’s found that they are in the Song family. Isn’t this self-inflicted?

  When this happened, the empress finally stopped being silent. She slowly got up, looked at Concubine Song Xian, and said: "The daughter of the Song family hasn't taught her well, but Concubine Xian should take her back and take care of her."

After all,    is the daughter of a second-class public family. Even the royal family is not easy to punish. If Song Yuzhi is punished in front of everyone and embarrassing the Song family, it is not a good thing for the royal family.

Halfway through the birthday banquet of the queen dowager, the concubine Xianfei took Song Yuzhi and left. This was a big episode. The banquet was still going on in order, but there was always a doubt in the hearts of the ladies present. Never unlocked.

  As everyone knows, the imperial concubine comes from a certain family in the south of the Yangtze River, and has little contact with the powerful and powerful in the royal capital. Why does she protect the little girl of the Xue family in this way?

  Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the imperial concubine empress is extremely protective of this little girl, and even does not hesitate to deceive the queen mother. Although she said the reason, it is not credible at all.

  Even Xue Ning'er herself, after sitting back in her seat, did not figure out this problem.

  The seat next to Song Yuzhi was empty, and Xue Ning'er regretted a bit. If she hadn't missed Lin Xiu just now, she wouldn't have given the court lady a chance.

  Thinking of Lin Xiu, he should be in the palace now. I don’t know if the banquet in the middle palace is over. Is it possible for her to meet him when she returns?

  At this time, in Ningxia Palace.

Snapped!

Just stepping into the Ningxia Palace, the angry concubine and concubine could not help but slap Song Yuzhi’s fat face, gritted her teeth and said: "Song family’s face is really lost by you. Go back to the palace to reflect on it. Months, less than three months, no one step outside the house!"
