Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

Princess Shu didn't know what happened yet, but she felt that everyone was looking at her with a somewhat complicated look.

She walked towards Shen Ningning with a smile: "Ningning, there was something wrong with the carriage when we came here, so we came late."

After saying that, she turned to greet Concubine Qi. In the sunshine, Princess Shu smiled gently. Facing Concubine Qi's pretended to be calm, Shen Ningning secretly smiled.

Princess Shu explained to Concubine Qi: "Since today is my queen's birthday, I have also prepared a gift."

The servant behind her brought a brocade box to her. When she opened it, everyone saw that what was inside turned out to be a gold and silver intertwined lotus that symbolized a good relationship.

Princess Shu's blessing could not be more obvious. She wished that Concubine Qi and the emperor would love each other.

Everyone looked at the jade plaque around Concubine Qi's neck, and their moods suddenly became more complicated!

Concubine Qi smiled, the corners of her lips tightening: "The princess is very thoughtful. I like this gift very much. I think the emperor must be satisfied with it too. Come and show the princess a seat."

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Qi wanted the dancer to come up.

Of course Shen Ningning would not let her have her wish.

The little girl stood up, walked over and took Princess Shu's arm, pointing to the jade plaque on Princess Qi's chest.

"Auntie Princess, you came just in time. We are still discussing what happened to the jade plaque around Concubine Qi's neck."

Princess Shu looked a little confused and glanced at Concubine Qi: "Jade plaque?"

Shen Ningning confirmed that Princess Shu did not know that King Shu gave the jade plaque to Concubine Qi!

The moment the little girl lowered her head, she saw a bunch of colorful strings wrapped around Princess Shu's wrist.

This loop is the rope on which the jade plaque is hung...

What a treacherous and stingy King of Shu. He gave the jade tablet to Concubine Qi and then removed the rope and gave it to his wife!

It's really not a thing.

Shen Ningning was about to expose it on the spot, but unexpectedly, Mo Zhirou was one step ahead of her and spoke first:

"Mother, you can testify for me that my father did give you a brocade box with a jade plaque inside, right?"

Princess Shu felt even more confused: "It's true that I gave you a brocade box, but the Cailuo inside is not a jade plaque. You see."

She gently pulled up her sleeves, revealing the colorful knot between her wrists.

Seeing this gift, Princess Shu's eyes showed a soft and sweet smile.

"Your father said that this Cailuo was obtained after offering lamps in front of the Buddha for seven days. What about the jade plaque you are talking about?"

When Mo Zhirou saw the colorful strings, her face suddenly turned pale.

Of course she recognized it, it was just the rope hanging the jade plaque.

Where is the colorful network for offering lamps for seven days?

Mo Zhirou subconsciously wanted to help King Shu lie, but when she looked up, she saw Shen Ningning staring at her with a calm smile.

Mo Zhirou's heart skipped a beat.

Unfortunately, Shen Ningning also knew the origin of the rope. Mo Zhirou bought the jade plaque that day and deliberately showed it off in front of the little girl.

Shen Ningning squinted her eyes and said, "Auntie Princess, it's like this. A Persian businessman brought a top-quality imperial green jade tablet and auctioned it in the capital. I wanted to buy it."

"But when I went there, Miss Mo had already bought it, because she said that the King of Shu wanted to give it to my aunt, so I didn't fight for it. But today I happened to see that Concubine Qi was also wearing an identical one around her neck. Jade card, you think it’s a coincidence or not!”

As he spoke, Shen Ningning covered her mouth with her small hands and laughed softly as if unintentionally.

The female family members present stared at Concubine Qi silently.

At this moment, Concubine Qi felt on pins and needles, especially when Princess Shu looked over with a cold and inquiring look, she was sweating profusely.

The sunshine in spring was very good, making people feel warm from the sun, but Concubine Qi only felt a chill on her back.

Just when she was about to explain, Shen Ningning interrupted again.

The little girl said: "And the colorful rope in your hand is not ordinary, because when Miss Mo was showing off, I saw that the colorful rope was only used to hang the jade plaque."

"Could it be that after the uncle of the King of Shu bought it, he really used it to offer lamps in front of the Buddha for seven days?"

The surrounding ladies took a deep breath.

Princess Funing is about to throw the evidence in Concubine Qi’s face!

Liang Yici frowned and looked at Concubine Qi, the displeasure and coldness in her eyes almost overflowing.

She once heard her mother Fang Qingdai say that Concubine Qi had sinister thoughts. When she knew that Si Si Yi and Xie Cheng were attracted to each other, she still wanted Si Si Yi to contact and seduce the King of Shu.

It was a waste of time to treat her as considerately as a sister.

But she only wanted to let Shen Siyi cling to the royal power so as to benefit herself.

Liang Yici thought of this and when she looked at Shen Ningning, she felt like encouraging the little girl.

Concubine Qi owes it to Shen Shen, so it would be appropriate for her daughter to come back with revenge!

Ye Changyi asked Qi Xiuwei in a low voice: "What is the relationship between your aunt and the King of Shu? Have you known each other before?"

Qi Xiuwei twisted her handkerchief, feeling embarrassed, and subconsciously said: "How did I know? I hope they are okay, otherwise, I will not be able to hold my head up when I see Princess Shu in the future!"

The ladies lowered their voices and talked a lot.

The atmosphere in the scene was frozen for a while. Princess Shu looked at Cailuo on her wrist, her eyes cold and cold.

She raised her head and took the initiative to ask Concubine Qi: "Empress, is this jade plaque of yours really a gift from my husband, the King of Shu, as Ning Ning said?"

Mo Zhirou hurriedly smoothed things over and protected the King of Shu: "Mother, you must have misunderstood, and Her Royal Highness the Princess has also misunderstood. There cannot be only one kind of jade tablet in this world. Maybe I bought the same one by chance."

Shen Ningning knew she would say that.

Then he laughed and said lightly with pink lips: "What a coincidence. The jade plaque on Concubine Qi's body is the same one that the King of Shu asked you to buy."

"It also has the shape of a flower blooming side by side. The position of the stamens shows a touch of red due to the impurities in the jade. Whether it is true or not, the princess and aunt can confirm it at a glance."

"It can't be different jade tablets with the same impurities, right? Even the leaves cannot be exactly the same. How can a Persian businessman have two identical jade tablets?"

Mo Zhirou's face was as pale as paper.

Concubine Qi's nails dug into her palms with hatred.

This stupid Mo Zhirou, don't speak if you can't speak. The few words he said drove her to death!

Princess Shu's face was already very ugly.

Concubine Qi slowly exhaled in the face of Qi Shuasa's eyes staring at her.

After a while, she said: "If what Princess Funing said is true, then this jade tablet must have been bought by the King of Shu."

The female relatives present were in an uproar.

Princess Shu bit her lower lip and said, "I would like to ask you to speak more clearly. How did the things my husband bought get to your place?"

A thin layer of cold sweat had formed on Concubine Qi's forehead.

She pretended to be calm and clenched her fingertips under her sleeves: "Actually..."
