Chunman Palace

Chapter 80 Alienation
When Chang Xiuru went to Qingxin Hall to accompany her, she took the opportunity to accuse Lin Qingyu of disrespect in front of Xuan Yin, so for several days, Lin Qingyu was locked up in the Yaohua Pavilion and could not get news from her family.

There was an accident at home, and the people in the palace gradually became scornful. The maids and eunuchs in Yaohua Pavilion were taken away, and the food delivered was also crude, without any meaty smell, and it was more perfunctory.

Lingqiao stayed in the palace annoyed and annoyed, and murmured dissatisfied with the rough tea and light meals that were sent: "My lord has not been punished by the emperor yet, the dining room has treated him so harshly, and the clothing materials that were sent a few days ago are all Some of the vulgar styles look like a lot of threads are protruding out, it's really a dog's eyes to look down on people!"

Lin Qingyu said helplessly: "Since you know who are the people in the inner court, why bother to talk about it?"

Ling Qiao said indignantly: "The servant just feels wronged for the young master, it is not clear whether Master Lin will be convicted, but those slaves are quick to deduct, and they are not afraid of falling into a hole someday!"

Lin Qingyu was troubled in her heart, these days she was worried and often had nightmares, Lingqiao would talk about trivial things again, she lost her patience early on, and said annoyedly: "Shut up."

Lingqiao was startled, and said slowly: "Yes..." and backed away silently.

At this moment, Fu's voice of promise came in from outside the door.

"Sister Qing, I haven't seen you for a long time, but my temper has grown a lot." Fu promised to step in with a smile, and sat down opposite Lin Qingyu unceremoniously, and said, "It's just a slave, why should Sister Qing get angry? Really? It’s fine to send Xi to Yeting, it’s not worth much if you get angry with yourself.”

Lin Qingyu smiled and said: "What my sister said is very true, but my sister remembers that the slaves make mistakes and Ye Ting can discipline them, so why did you forget that you need to salute when you see me?"

"My sister thinks that my sister wants to be gentle, so she won't bother with her." Fu promised to move her red lips slightly, and slowly got up: "Forget it, there are not many honest people in my sister's palace. , I will be wronged to death."

After all, she saluted Lin Qingyu frivolously.

Lin Qingyu raised her hand slowly, ordered Mo'er to prepare tea, and then said to her: "This sister is a sister, etiquette is etiquette, no matter what, I have to do enough, right? Otherwise, I don't care about it in the future, and the emperor happened to see it." It's not good to misunderstand my sister's obedient and polite temperament."

Fu promised to cover her lips suddenly and smiled: "Sister is really good at joking, why did the emperor come to see sister? But my sister is grateful for her kindness, but I begged the emperor for a long time before I was able to visit my sister!"

"My sister really misses me."

"Naturally! My sister knows that the inner court treats her badly when it comes to food, so she specially prepared good dishes for her to enjoy." Fu clapped her hands in agreement, and the maid beside her immediately put a mahogany food box on the table Come on, bring out some dishes from it.

This is Lin Qingyu's first impression of these dishes.

Most of these dishes are styles that I have never seen before. They are fried with unknown mushrooms and sliced ​​meat. There is also a milk cake made of glutinous rice and dried meat coated with honey sauce, which is quite appetizing.

Fu agreed and raised her hand to invite: "Sister, please use it."

Lin Qingyu picked up a piece of mushroom with a jade bag, smelled the smell, and besides the fried aroma of the ingredients themselves, there was another strange smell, which couldn't be named, but it just made people feel a little ecstatic.

She felt that something was wrong, so she put down her clothes.

Fu promised to see that she didn't need it, and asked suspiciously: "What? Does my sister think these dishes are not suitable for my taste? Or... I don't like my sister's cooking skills?"

"Sister's dish is really delicious, and I think it must taste good." Lin Qingyu saw the urgency in the eyes, and slightly curled his lips: "It's just that I just had lunch, and I don't have any appetite now."

"Then sister, why don't you try this jerky? Both Empress Jin and Concubine Lan like it very much, and it won't take up your stomach." After Fu promised, she tore off a piece of jerky with honey sauce and handed it over.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Fu promised that the visitor was obviously not kind. Lin Qingyu looked at the jerky in her hand and shook her head.

"I really can't eat it. My sister said that both Concubine Jin and Concubine Lan like this dried meat, why don't you give it to them?"

Fu agreed and immediately said angrily: "Sister, I am so kind, why does sister Qing respond like this? I begged the emperor for a long time before agreeing to allow me to visit my sister, and my sister is so ungrateful?!" During the words, quite embarrassment turned into anger meaning.

Lin Qingyu glanced at her indifferently: "Your sister can be straightforward about what she wants to say, why bother?"

Fu promised to sneer: "Oh, you don't think you are the favored nobleman, do you? Your father did such a thing, the emperor hates your father, and hates you even more!"

Lin Qingyu was secretly sullen, but still said calmly: "If my sister has nothing else to say, please go out."

Fu agreed to point to someone, frowned and said: "You are a noble who has fallen out of favor, why should I listen to your instructions! Come on, give me all these things and stuff them into her stomach! Nothing less!"

Fu promised that the maid beside her listened, looked at each other, and hesitated.

Lin Qingyu's voice was calm: "It's funny, Fu promised to be so presumptuous! I want to see who dares to do something in Yaohua Pavilion."

"What are you all standing there for? Are you all dead?" Fu promised to stab the maid next to her angrily, and stretched out her hand to pinch, the pain made the maid scream again and again.

"You don't dare to teach her a lesson, I'll do it myself!" After that, she picked up the food with her chopsticks, and stepped forward to hold Lin Qingyu down.

"Fu promised you what to do!" Mo'er stepped forward to stop her, stretching out her arms to protect Lin Qingyu.

"You maidservant, get out of the way!" Fu promised with a stern voice, and pinched Mo'er's back with her hand, Mo'er bit her lip and yelled towards the door: "Lingqiao! Lingqiao, come and help! Lingqiao !"

The voice was thrown out, but there was no response for a long time.

Mo'er looked at the door, and Ling Qiao hid outside the door, peeking into the room with half of her face exposed.

She said anxiously: "Lingqiao, what are you doing! Come in and help, pull Fu Xu away!"

Lingqiao remained unmoved, with a look of confusion hidden between her brows and eyes, she stepped forward a few times and shrank back.

She yelled straight at Mo'er: "Lingqiao!!!! What are you doing!!!!" Finally, she gave up asking Lingqiao for help and protected Lin Qingyu by herself.

Fu promised to beat harder, but seeing that pinching didn't work, she pulled out the silver hairpin on her head and poked Mo'er fiercely a few times, perhaps hitting a sore spot, Mo'er couldn't hold back the pain this time and moaned again, Lin Qingyu Couldn't see it any longer, then picked up the things on the table and threw them at Fu promised.

Hearing a crisp "crack", Fu promised to stop fighting, and screamed in pain.

"My face...! My face!"

Mo'er hesitantly moved away, looked at Xiang Fu and agreed, blood was winding down from her right forehead, she covered the wound with her hands and screamed.

Seeing the glass shards on the ground, she immediately understood.

This is the glazed cup that Lin Qingyu used to hold flower oil a few days ago. The glazed glass is fragile and hurts someone's face when touched on the forehead.

Lin Qingyu first got up to check the wound on Mo'er's back, and she was startled at one glance: several places on that petite body were covered with clothes and deeply indented into the flesh, except for the back, the waist was pierced. Seeing red, the wound is eye-catching and hideous.

For a moment, anger gushed out of her chest, and she immediately raised her head and looked fiercely at Xiang Fu to agree.

But seeing the wound on Fu Xu's face, she first wanted to send someone to tell the imperial physician, but Fu Ying rushed forward with half of her face covered, and her voice was harsh and vicious: "Lin Qingyu, I will kill you!"

She dodged resentfully, staring at him equally angrily.

Anyway, she is a foregone conclusion, she has long been waiting for Xuan Yin's order, but this husband promised to provoke her again, she has tolerated many times in her words, and now she can't bear it anymore.

Seeing that Fu promised to rush forward, Lin Qingyu was also about to make a move, but a sound immediately interrupted the two of them.

"Stop it all for Bengong!"

It was Mu Pingting who came.

Lin Qingyu stepped forward to salute: "Sister Mu, why are you here? The emperor also..."

"Snapped."

Before she could finish speaking, she was slapped hard on the face.

Surprise, doubt, sadness, all kinds of emotions mixed together, Lin Qingyu was stunned.

Mu Pingting's voice was indifferent and alienated: "I've already been grounded, and if I keep going like this, is it true that I don't want any face at all?"

Lin Qingyu was silent, red palm prints soon appeared on her fair face, she raised her eyes to look at the strange Mu Pingting in front of her, feeling a chill in her heart.

Fu promised to cry and went forward and said: "Miss Jin, you have to be the master of my concubine!"

Mu Pingting smiled coldly and said, "It's really pitiful, my sister should go back to Huazao Palace and ask the imperial doctor, if the tears get into the wound, it will be even more difficult to heal."

Fu agreed and struggled: "But... Qing nobleman..."

Mu Pingting smiled lightly and said: "If you just agree to go to the nobleman's residence to provoke trouble, I won't bother with you. After I return to the Ming emperor, the Qing nobleman will be punished. If you don't return to the palace, this is my palace's fault." I won’t cover it up for you.”

Fu promised not to be angry, but she could only helplessly say: "Yes, the concubine is resigning." Before leaving, she gave Lin Qingyu an angrily look.

Mu Pingting smiled kindly: "Sister, won't you invite me to sit down?"

Lin Qingyu sneered, "Sister, do what you want." After speaking, she sat on the chair by herself.

"My sister was just showing off, and I asked Fu to promise not to hate my sister in the future. Don't blame me, my sister." Mu Pingting smiled warmly and brightly like a spring breeze, and she asked again with certainty: "My sister understands my sister's feelings." Do you mind?"

Lin Qingyu looked straight at the person, and it took a while before he said: "My sister is considerate for my sister, and my sister is grateful."

"Well, it's rare for my sister to see this farce this time. It's really disappointing." Mu Pingting sat opposite the others, looked at the glass shards on the ground and smiled, raised her lips and said, "Can I ask for my sister's cup?" Tea?"

Mo'er glanced at Lin Qingyu, and waited for someone to speak.

"Since my sister wants tea, why doesn't my sister give it to me? I'm just afraid that the tea in my sister's palace is crude. If it tastes musty, wouldn't it be bad for my sister to taste it?"

Just after Lin Qingyu finished speaking, Lingqiao had made some tea and came in with a teapot.

Lingqiao said courteously: "Mistress Jin, please use it. This is our Lord's new silver-tip tea, and I don't want to drink it on weekdays." Then, she poured Lin Qingyu another cup: "My lord, please use it."

Lin Qingyu stared at Lingqiao fiercely, reached out and threw the full cup of hot tea onto Lingqiao: "Eat the inside out! Get out!"

Mu Pingting sipped tea with a slight smile, and said, "Sister, why bother to get angry with a slave? Lingqiao is loyal, and she knows that today is different. Since she wants to find another good master, why is my sister so angry? Change Japan Then choose a good one to send to my younger sister in the palace." She slightly bent her eyes, and continued: "If my younger sister still needs it in the future."

Lin Qingyu suppressed her trembling voice: "My sister likes Lingqiao so much, of course my sister will give it to me, as long as my sister doesn't dislike her clumsiness."

Mu Pingting smiled without saying a word, and stretched out her hand for Lingqiao to follow behind her.

"I don't know if my sister thinks this tea tastes good?"

Mu Pingting smiled and said: "This tea is good, but my sister has kept it for a long time. Old tea is not better than new tea. It is better to use it up earlier, so as not to live in such a tight situation."

Lin Qingyu said with a light smile: "The tea given by the emperor should be cherished very much. If my sister used it up too early, how can my sister drink such good tea now?"

Mu Pingting said calmly: "Younger sister is right, the things that the emperor rewards are precious, so naturally we should cherish them, but eating and drinking are not as expensive as clothing, if you cherish them too much, leaving them for a long time will ruin the emperor's wishes. "

"What my sister said, my sister wrote it down."

Mu Pingting smiled brightly: "Just say it casually, my sister doesn't need to pay too much attention to it, after all, my sister probably won't need these principles that my sister said in the future."

Lin Qingyu had guessed a lot in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm and asked, "Why did my sister say that?"

"Oh? Little sister doesn't know?" Mu Pingting pretended to be surprised, looked at Mo'er beside her and asked, "Did Mo'er tell you?"

Lin Qingyu looked directly at Humanity and said, "Mo'er has been serving my sister all day long, so what news can I know? If my sister has something to say, you might as well just say it."

Mu Pingting stroked her hair and said, "The Lin family has suffered a crushing defeat. My sister's father was convicted of corruption and oppressing the common people, and my sister's elder brother bribed officials to get the title of champion of martial arts. It was also verified that it was true. The emperor is now thundering." I am furious, and now I am ready to punish my sister's family."

Lin Qingyu's teeth were chattering: "Dare to ask my sister...how is my sister's family now?"

"The whole family has no official positions, and the whole family is in prison. And my sister's elder sister knew that she broke the law, and even tried to bribe the officials who punished her father, so she was also imprisoned." Mu Pingting said it calmly, she looked at Lin Qingyu quietly , ready to admire her expression.

Lin Qingyu's heart was cold and desolate, she closed her eyes in despair, and said sadly: "Thank you sister Mu for telling me, if possible, please tell the emperor for me, my sister wants to see the emperor."

Mu Pingting was silent for a long time, she seemed disappointed, she lowered her eyes, and said with a feeling of desolation: "For the sake of our sisters, I will definitely tell the emperor what you said..."

"Thank you, Empress Jin."

Mu Pingting was startled, and trembled unnaturally.

She didn't look at Lin Qingyu, but stood up very quickly and walked out without looking back.

She knew that from now on, some people were no longer sisters.
