Poor children

Chapter 144
一
The two palace servants from Changning Temple were lying on the ground shivering and apologizing frequently.

"You two idiots! How come they even gave birth to a child and you didn't even notice it?" Mrs. Xiao was angry.
"Back to Madam, when we usually bring things in, we usually leave them in the hands of Miss Chanyu. We rarely see Her Royal Highness the Queen. We have only seen her twice since autumn. She was always sitting in a rocking chair basking in the sun, covered with a Huge blanket, this is really not the fault of the slaves..."

"Excuse! Excuse..." Mrs. Xiao was already blinded by anger and could not listen to their explanation at all. "My child is gone, and she gave birth to another one. This is not fair! You two slaves are not doing things well. Go back and get a hundred sticks each!"

"Madam, please forgive me... I will definitely die after receiving this hundred sticks, please Madam raise your hand..." The two palace servants knelt on the ground and kowtowed like garlic

"It's okay to die. If you are alive, you will not be able to relieve the anger in my heart. It's better to die..." Mrs. Xiao said, "Shunxi! Why don't you take me out and beat you to death? You are still here to make me angry..."

Shun Xi hurriedly stretched out his hand to call people in and dragged them out. The palace man who was dragged out knew that he was bound to die, so he cursed Mrs. Xiao all the way that she would not die well or die well...

"Madam, let me cut off their tongues first..." Shunxi hurriedly said after hearing such vicious curse words.

"That's it! Why did a few crazy words hurt me?" Mrs. Xiao paced back and forth in the hall, thinking about countermeasures in her heart. Unexpectedly, due to a moment of negligence, there was another person competing for the chair in the Changping Hall. "Go and prepare." Let’s go to Ruihua Palace to take a look at some things..."

"Master! Mrs. Gan and Prince Zi Tong are here," Xiao Dunzi reported.
"Please!" Pao'er handed Hong Yue into Chanyu's hand and hurriedly stood up and went out. Pao'er always remembered that Mrs. Gan was willing to risk her life to see her even in the midst of the dilemma, which even implicated her in banning herself from the palace. half a year
"Originally, we wanted to come yesterday, but we heard that Her Royal Highness the Queen had been sleeping so long that we didn't dare to disturb her," Mrs. Gan said as she hurriedly saluted the poor boy.

"Madam, please get up quickly... Come and sit down to drink tea." The poor man hurriedly helped Mrs. Gan up.

"Quick! Chanyu, please bring His Highness over and let me take a look." Mrs. Gan just sat down and called Chanyu over.

"Mother's queen..." Seeing that the poor boy had also sat down, Zi Tong ran over and threw himself into the poor boy's arms. "Does the mother's queen no longer love Zitong after having a younger brother?"

The poor boy squeezed Zitong's little nose with his hand, "How could it be? The queen mother doesn't like boys, she only loves daughters. You will always be the queen's most beloved daughter..."

Zi Tong seemed relieved after hearing what the poor boy said. Then he walked to Mrs. Gan, leaned on Mrs. Gan's arm and looked at Hong Yue, "Mom, he is so small!"

"Yes! But he will grow up soon. Zi Tong was only a little bit big when he was born!" Mrs. Gan gently shook Hong Yue
"When will my little brother grow up? I want to teach him kung fu and reading..." Zi Tong held Hong Yue's little hand.
Mrs. Gan laughed loudly when she heard this, "You still want to teach Hong Yue to read!?"

"I think Zi Tong must have read quite well this year," the poor boy also laughed.
"Go back to your mother!" Zi Tong cupped his hands and said, "My son has been studying very hard over the past year and has already achieved some success. Naturally, this is pretty good!"

Pao'er and Mrs. Gan looked at each other and laughed when they heard this, "I have been studying for so many years, and I dare not say that I have achieved anything in a small way. Zitong, you have achieved something in a small way. It is really amazing..."

"Well... what the Queen said is great is great." Zi Tong sat in the poor boy's arms again, "What does it mean to have just a small amount of success?"

As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall laughed again.

"There's something..." Mrs. Gan said hesitantly, "I wanted to tell you earlier, but I really didn't dare to enter Changning Temple after I came out, so I delayed it until now..." "What's the matter?" The poor boy hugged Zitong together. Playing with the wooden doll in Zi Tong's hand

"Your Highness, look at this..." Mrs. Gan took out the wooden figure from the day of Mrs. Xiao's accident.

When the pauper saw it, he stretched out his hand to take it. "I was in such a hurry that day that I didn't look carefully. What kind of peach wood is this?"

"Her Royal Highness also knows that this is not your piece of mahogany?"

"The piece of mahogany treasure I lost has been found in the grass outside my palace. It must be that the servant who stole the thing was too panicked and lost the stolen thing, so he had to find a similar replacement. The person who receives it should I don’t know much about it either,” said the pauper.

"Your Highness, compare this wooden figure with the one in Zi Tong's hand," Mrs. Gan said again

The pauper looked at the two wooden figures carefully, and the expressions on their faces changed again and again.

"The first thing I did after I came out was to go find this craftsman. He said frankly that there was indeed a sneaky person who asked him to carve this thing. The person spoke in a yin and yang manner, but there were many such people in the palace. I So I checked the people who had gone out on leave that day, and found out that there was a young palace servant who was cleaning the front hall. He had gone out on leave that day, and he was the only one who went missing among the few people who went out. In that case..."

"That's it! Even if you know that this is a deliberate plot, you can no longer determine the person behind the scenes, so you can only do this..." Pao'er handed the little wooden man into Laibao's hand, "Take it and burn it..."

"Master! Madam Xiao asks to see you..." Xiao Dunzi hurried into the palace to report
"The man behind the scenes is here!" Mrs. Gan laughed
The pauper also smiled when he heard this, "Please come in quickly..."

After a while, I heard the yard became lively, and from a distance I heard Mrs. Xiao's voice, "Look! Look! What do you mean? I should have come earlier, damn it!"

"Who is she saying deserves to die?" Mrs. Gan asked in a low voice.
Poor children laugh without saying a word

"Your Highness the Queen, I give you my regards!" Mrs. Xiao came into the palace and walked in front of the poor child in two steps.
"Mrs. Xiao, there is no need to be polite, sit down and drink tea," the poor man said

Mrs. Xiao quickly thanked Mrs. Xiao and sat down, "This is Hongyue? Tell me to take a look." Mrs. Xiao reached out to Mrs. Gan to hug His Royal Highness
"Look at you, she just came here and she hugged her well. I haven't hugged her enough yet, so why do you insist on hugging me?" Mrs. Gan complained with a smile.
"Okay, okay! Just hug me, sister..." Mrs. Xiao took a big sip of the tea brought by Chan Yu. "It will be good if Her Majesty the Queen comes out. I was weak at that time, and because I lost my son, I was a little confused. , even if it were a matter of life, I would never let the king lock you up..." Mrs. Xiao wiped her tears.

"Madam, don't be sad, everything is over," the poor man hurriedly consoled her.

"I heard that the two servants from Changning Temple often treated His Highness harshly. Your Highness didn't know that these servants in the palace were all snobbish. They must have thought that Your Highness was out of power, so they dared to do this. I have ordered them to be beaten to death with sticks today. , can be regarded as venting your anger on His Highness..."

"Hey! Madam, why bother? After all, there are two lives." Paoer sighed, "I have never blamed them..."

"It's over! It's over!" Mrs. Gan also sighed, "It's enough to kill two snobbish slaves. This is just to vent your anger on Her Majesty the Queen. I did nothing but took the injustice of two lives." On the body……"
