Summer is sweltering and hot, and the sun is like fire.
Qin Ying was ill for two days. I heard that after waking up, she started to lose her mind. The people in the mansion didn't know it and thought it was because she fell into the water and caught the wind and cold. Seeing her like that, they couldn't help but mutter to themselves that Su Li was going to be in big trouble. .
But all the people waited for several days, but they waited for the second wife to promise Qin Ying to the Nanchuan royal family. This Nanchuan is far away from Shangjing, how could he be promised there?
Some people felt that this matter was strange, and they couldn't help but think about the matter of the old lady leaving Concubine Su and the others. They vaguely felt that there was something hidden about this matter, but no matter who they asked, they couldn't find out why, even the two sisters of the Xiao family didn't know it at all.
Ordinarily, the second wife should not be willing to marry Qin Ying far away, and she was brought to Xiao's residence just to let her find a home in Shangjing.
And although Qin Ying doesn't seem to be very talkative, she is also very thoughtful. She has been able to stay in Xiao's residence for so long and has not been engaged for a long time, so it doesn't seem like she wants to marry far away.
But the most surprising thing is that Qin Ying just recognized her without saying a word, and when she met her, she would thank the second wife again and again, as if she was still very satisfied with the Nanchuan royal family.
Seeing her low-browed and obedient look, Su Concubine was faintly uneasy.
Just when the girls in Xiao's mansion were thinking about this, the two families had passed their engagement at the beginning of June, and the wedding date was set on June 16, which was an auspicious day.
And it was also a good day recently. It was also the old lady who came forward and planned to marry Qin Ying off early.
When Su Li heard the news, she exhaled to Concubine Su, "She is finally getting married."
As she said that, she patted her chest with shock still on her face, "You don't know, every time I meet her, I feel uncomfortable all over, she looks like..."
Speaking of this, Su Li seemed to be looking for an adjective, but Su Ruan who was at the side took up the conversation: "She looks so creepy that she can't even move her eyes!"
Concubine Su couldn't help being surprised, she hadn't seen Qin Ying for quite a while, and Qin Ying didn't go to greet Madam An, but the last time Qin Ying learned about the marriage was the day Qin Ying bowed her head and kept thanking Madam An, But he didn't expect Qin Ying to become like this again?
Or is it that she hasn't changed, and her gratitude to the second lady was just pretending?
Hearing Su Li and Su Ruan's description, Su Concubine was taken aback for a moment, but her anxiety grew more and more, as if she always felt that Qin Ying was holding back something, and it might not be easy for Qin Ying to marry into Nanchuan Wang's family.
In fact, the second wife is very kind to Qin Ying. The Wang family of Nanchuan is an aristocratic family in Nanchuan, and men under forty are not allowed to take concubines. Although it is far away from Shangjing, it is a very good home for her.
I just hope she won't be stupid again this time.
But how did she expect that this day was peaceful, but something happened three days before Qin Ying got married.
The emperor was out of the palace on the evening of June 13th, and was playing on the Long Street in Shangjing. Unfortunately, he met an assassin during this visit.
What's more unfortunate is that a beautiful girl rescued the emperor. I heard that the beautiful girl was wearing a moon-white dress, facing the stabbing sword, she pushed the emperor away without blinking, and went up to the sword herself. After that, it fell like a butterfly.
Su Concubine heard the people's discussion on the long street, her eyelids twitched, and when she returned to Xiao's mansion, she followed the people in Xiao's mansion to follow the imperial edict.
Qin Ying became the emperor's concubine, and she jumped into a concubine, which shows her honor.
In order to thank Qin Ying for his rescue, the emperor directly carried him into the palace, and even took nothing from Xiao's mansion. The servant who came to announce the decree smiled and said: "Congratulations to Zhongyonghou, congratulations to Zhongyonghou, your family This Miss Cousin is truly a hero among women, and now the rewards are flowing into the Oneiroi Palace."
The name of Dream God Palace was changed by the emperor. It is said that when the emperor saw Qin Ying, he was astonished as a celestial being. Only then did I find the beauty lost in my dream.
Therefore, the beauty is like a fairy, and the fairy comes in the dream, so he is called the dream god.
Concubine Su saw that Zhongyonghou couldn't help smiling, presumably she learned about Qin Ying from her wife, so she had to give a few ingots of silver to the servant so that he could take care of Concubine Meng.
The servant naturally said hello, said a few more congratulations, then took his leave and left, only the old lady and the family members looked at each other and sighed quietly.
Only the old lady said: "This is also the child's chance."
It's just that those eyes were full of condensation, but there was no trace of joy, and although the second lady was happy in her heart, she couldn't show it. The eldest lady only glanced at the second lady and curled her lips.
In this way, the marriage with Nanchuan Wang's family is over. Although this is not the Xiao family, nor Qin Ying's voluntary resignation, but no one has the guts to rob the emperor. All aspects.
Su Ruan looked at Su Concubine and Su Li, and only muttered: "Then Qin Ying is so timid, does she really dare to save the emperor?"
Su Concubine glanced at her, and sighed: "But the emperor said so, and even announced the decree, it doesn't seem to be false."
Su Li was also angry, "But if she becomes the imperial concubine, I'm afraid she won't let our Su family go. She is not a good thing."
As she spoke, she remembered something again, and couldn't help asking: "But before the wedding date, the bride-to-be is not allowed to go out, so how did she go out? And how did it happen to be on the day the emperor was assassinated? And so coincidentally... How about saving the emperor?"
After she finished asking, Su Li and Su Ruan looked at each other, seeing disbelief in each other's eyes, Su Li asked, "You mean, she still has the ability to see things?"
Su Li thought of what Su Shen said again, "Ah", and continued: "Do you remember what big brother said? He said that Qin Ying seemed to know what he was going to do next, so he hid."
"Ah? Big sister, what you said scares me to death." Su Ruan hugged her shoulders and looked around.
Su concubine also frowned, pondered for a moment before saying: "No matter how she found out, now she has become a concubine, we just have to be more careful."
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and said again: "She has just entered the palace, and she is so high-profile, I'm afraid she won't take care of us for a while, she wants to gain a firm foothold in the palace, those concubines are not vegetarians, are they?" ?”
"You're right, at least you have to pretend she's good-natured." Su Li curled her lips, "It's just that the Nanchuan Wang family is really miserable, so they just slipped away."
Concubine Su spread her hands, "There's nothing you can do about it, who let him fall into the eyes of the emperor?"
The three sisters looked at each other, propped their chins on the table, and let out a faint sigh.
…
Originally thought that this matter would be over, but never thought that Zhou Yan was responsible for the assassination of the emperor. The emperor directly ordered Dali Temple to take Zhou Yan into custody for trial.
When Su concubine heard about this, she was not worried, but slightly excited.
She was worried that Zhou Yan's favorability value could not be raised no matter how hard she tried, wouldn't this give her a chance?
If you are worried about anyone, you don't need to worry about Zhou Yan. After all, he has the aura of a hero, but he must suffer a lot in prison, especially his most important person!
But this time, she knew that it was not Zhou Yan's doing. The emperor probably thought that Zhou Yan found out that he had poisoned him, and now it was Zhou Yan's counterattack.
But Zhou Yan wouldn't be so stupid, he would strike when he didn't have a perfect plan.
There was indeed such a passage in the original plot, but it was the prince who saw that the emperor had not abdicated for a long time, and had a vague idea of abolishing the prince, so he acted.
And this matter will be found out sooner or later, she just needs to take advantage of Zhou Yan in prison to chat with her heart!
Concubine Su didn't do it too blatantly, she just walked leisurely along the long street to the vicinity of Dali Temple every day to step on it, and then listened to what the officials said in the chat. It's not good to wear.
Concubine Su licked her lips, and when she rolled her eyes, she had an idea, and then asked the shop assistants to send some money to the officials. She only said that she was a servant of the palace, and sent some clothes and supplies to the master. .
The food, drink, clothes, and even the kind of thin but warm quilt were given to Zhou Yan, and a bag of water was filled for him, and some fairy water was given to him.
Su concubine understood that Zhou Yan seemed heartless, but it was not easy for him to let go of his guard.
Although Zhou Yan looked like an idle prince, but being able to make the emperor so taboo meant that he must have power behind the scenes, especially after accepting this thing, he would definitely check to see if it was sent by someone from the mansion.
But Concubine Su also acted cautiously, and even set up a puzzle, so that Zhou Yan's people couldn't be sure whether it was sent by someone from the palace.
After all, there is no mistress in the palace, those servants have always listened to Zhou Yan, and now that Zhou Yan is in prison, it is good for them not to be in a hurry, so why would they ask someone to spend money and prepare these things?
So, Zhou Yan took the fairy water and fell into deep thought.
But three days later, someone gave him something again, which made Zhou Yan confused for a while.
In this way, almost every three days, someone would bring him some food and drink, but the fairy water was never brought to him again. This person must know that he loves beauty, but his thoughts are so delicate, and he is not like those friends. .
At this moment, he had a vague name in his mind, but he shook his head and smiled. He is a prisoner, what is there to like?
Zhou Yan's assassination of the emperor caused unrest in the court, and Dali Temple accepted the case without any evidence, but the emperor's intention was to let them kill Zhou Yan immediately.
It's a pity that as soon as they produced evidence, the officials and the prime minister found out that there was something written by the prince.
May I ask who can know that the emperor is leaving the palace on June 13th?
Naturally, it was the person in front of him, but the **** in front of him was already the prince's person. The contacts and money between the two were exposed to the public, and the prince could not argue with his mouth.
After such a twists and turns, the truth came to light, but it also caused an uproar in the court.
When Concubine Su learned about this in the Xiao Mansion, she even heard the news from the palace that Concubine Meng woke up!
