Chapter 41 Storm Center
After thinking about it further, Duan Yi calmed down again.

The time is not right, it was six years ago when she gave Cui Zi more precious gourd hairpins.

She was only ten years old at that time, and she was not loved by her grandfather Duan Wenchang. She was alone in Jiannan, so how could she have the family heirloom of the Duan family on her hair.

And the time when the Eastern Palace chose the concubine was far after this.

"Didn't grandma say that the hairpin was given to her by grandpa?"

Duan Hao shook her head, and she took a deep look at Duan Yi, "The one my grandfather gave me is a family treasure. She thought it was really in the third sister's place, so she just brought it out to test the third sister. Otherwise, how could it be possible?" Let you choose first?"

Duan Yi was speechless...

It's not that she said, grandmas and girls, you have such wisdom, why don't you go sweep the world, but stay in that square world and live like fighting cocks.

"Grandmother loves big sister and wants her to be the future queen. Grandfather gave her the hairpin for safekeeping, but she gave it to big sister in private. Big sister thought she had a chance to win, so she specially called me to go too. "

"During the journey, she acted as if she was a princess, insinuating in every sentence, saying that Auntie is not self-respecting... After entering the palace, Concubine Ruan treated her eldest sister differently from the past. At that time, everyone said that she was sure to win. "

"I couldn't be more angry. At the rockery, I pushed her while no one else was around. She staggered back, and the hairpin on her head fell off."

Duan Hao said, clutching his chest in fear, "At that time, I didn't know what was so special about that hairpin. Grandma often gave her jewelry, and the treasure gourd hairpin was also ordinary."

"After the hairpin fell to the ground, the treasure gourd fell apart. The eldest sister picked it up in a panic, and found that the body of the hairpin was hollow, and there was nothing inside."

Duan Yi frowned as she listened, "So the hairpin my grandmother gave my elder sister was the fake one my grandmother gave me? Where did it really go?"

Duan Hao covered her mouth and coughed a few more times. She crossed her arms with both hands and took a deep look at Duan Yi.

"Sister, don't worry. I only found out about many things later when I got home. At that time, I didn't know that the treasured gourd hairpin was related to the Heshan Seal, and I didn't know that Big Sister was going to present it to Concubine Ruan."

"What's the mystery of the hairpin? I don't even know. After all, I'm just a girl who doesn't even have the value of marriage and will die at any time. For the glory of the Duan family, they let the third sister leave home to guard the ancestral grave at the age of five, so what? Will you tell me this family secret?"

"But Eldest Sister noticed something was wrong at the time, and she was terribly frightened. Just at this time, the mother in charge of Concubine Ruan came over and asked Eldest Sister to go to the Nuan Pavilion to talk about herself."

"Big sister dismissed the mother in charge, and then..."

When Duan Hao said this, he smiled mockingly, "Before I told the third sister that the candidate for the crown princess is one of the three. In addition to the eldest sister, there is also Dong Zhao, the eldest daughter of Mrs. Hu Guo, and the official Zhou Zhenyu, the granddaughter of Bu Shangshu."

"Big sister slapped me and deliberately pretended to be indecent, which attracted Zhou Zhenyu to catch her. When I was still in a daze, she fell into the river with Zhou Zhenyu in her arms."

Duan Yi was speechless, "She wants to escape by falling into the water in vain. After all, she doesn't have a real hairpin to offer to Concubine Ruan Gui."

Duan Hao nodded, "In the twelfth lunar month, my sister was rescued with a broken hairpin... The East Palace birthday party broke up unhappy. We left the palace in a hurry. Turned upside down."

"Within three days, Zhou Zhenyu, the granddaughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, died of a cold."

The two sisters did not speak, and fell silent all of a sudden.

Although Duan Hao said it simply, Duan Yi felt that this scene was probably not inferior to any bloody palace fighting scene she had ever seen.

In order to protect herself, Duan Xian insisted that the thing was taken away by Zhou Zhenyu, so she left the East Palace.Concubine Ruan Gui forced Zhou Zhenyu to death, but she didn't get what she wanted, so she would be suspicious of Duan Xian again.

Duan Xian's concubine couldn't be done, but Duan Wenchang was in power at the time, as long as she didn't go to the East Palace alone, Ruan Guifei couldn't do anything to her.

It was also because of this fall into the water that Duan Xian suffered from the coldness of the palace, that's why he had the smell of medicine that Zhilu smelt.

Duan Yi thought about it, but her heart skipped a beat, and a guess arose in her heart.

She looked at Duan Hao calmly, and handed her the carved bamboo tube given by the third prince earlier, "Do you drink water?"

Duan Hao looked down at the bamboo tube, but she didn't pick it up. She sighed lightly and said something ethereal, "I really envy you, sister."

As she spoke, she turned around and talked about the precious gourd and hosta.

"After the birthday banquet in the Eastern Palace, Eldest Sister was sick at home. I felt uneasy, knowing that something had happened unintentionally. Eldest Sister hated me more and more, and felt that I had broken her career path."

"After returning home, the eldest sister couldn't control it for a while, and asked my grandmother about the hairpin, which made me see the clue. Grandma didn't know, when did the real hairpin become a fake hairpin?"

Duan Yi moved her eyes and put down the bamboo tube again.

"It's really gone, so why did grandma try to test me? I have been staying in Jiannan, and I have never left for half a step. The hairpin can't grow wings, so it flew to me."

Duan Hao looked at Duan Yi in surprise, and shook his head, "It seems that my sister really doesn't know. Grandma checked for more than a month, but she didn't have the slightest clue. Suddenly, an old incident came to mind."

"Just a few years ago, my grandfather was going south to help the disaster. Before leaving, he took out the precious gourd hairpin to look at it for a long time. At that time, he didn't say anything and went back to Jincheng secretly..."

Duan Yi suddenly realized, "So grandma thought that grandpa had changed the hairpin secretly, and then quietly came to Jincheng to give it to me?"

As she spoke, she spread her hand wordlessly and pointed to the bamboo tube.

"Based on what you think, not only can my grandfather fail to be a prime minister, he should not even pass the examination of scholar. Did he have a yellow river growing in his head? That's why he did such sloppy things."

"Stealing my wife's hairpin, and running all the way here to give it to my unwanted granddaughter, this is no ordinary person, I can't do such a thing!"

Seeing that Duan Hao was dumbfounded, Duan Yi exclaimed again, "But after seeing my sister and what you're doing today, I don't think it's impossible for him to do like this."

"After all, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and mice's sons can make holes. If it weren't for some problems, a granddaughter with such a big problem would not be born."

Duan Hao's face was flushed red, she covered her mouth, and coughed earth-shatteringly.

Duan Yi looked at it and shook her head, "Narrow-minded people can easily die of anger."

When Duan Hao heard it, he coughed more and more.

After all, Duan Yi started to mutter in her heart.

She didn't know anything about what happened before she was ten years old. Little Duan Yi, who she thought was like a blank sheet of paper, actually had a secret that she couldn't tell.After all, no matter what, the treasure gourd hairpin that once appeared on her head was real!

Has Mama Jiang seen it before? If so, why didn't she tell the old lady?
Grand Master Duan and Mrs. Lu who respect each other as guests, if they were not of the same mind, why did the Grand Master give the hairpin to the old lady for safekeeping?If he had one heart, why did he steal the dragon and turn it into a phoenix after being kept by others?
Concubine Ruan knew that the Duan family had something related to the Heshan Seal, what about Your Majesty?Does he know or not?
She thought that what she needed to do was to guard Jiannan Road and survive in the troubled times.

Looking at it now, perhaps, she, Duan Yi herself, was the center of the storm.

　It will be on the shelves tomorrow, and it will be updated after ten o'clock in the morning. I hope that the babies can support the first order and the monthly pass!
