Chapter 14 The Queen Mother’s Suspicion
Chapter 14 The Queen Mother’s Suspicion
The eunuch who came to deliver the message did not have a high official position. He took advantage of the money and had a smile on his face: "The Queen Mother has told you that it must be a good thing. Second lady is blessed!"
It was related to Shen Zhuoxi. Shen Heshan thought about what his colleagues accidentally mentioned when he went to court, and asked: "The Queen Mother has really thoroughly investigated Si Tianjian?"
"Yes." The eunuch looked around and said in a much lower voice: "It is said that the involvement is very extensive. The news is still being suppressed for the time being, so I dare not say more."
"Okay." Shen Heshanpi forced a smile and said, "My father-in-law will go back first. After the little girl has finished cleaning up, I will personally send someone to take her to the palace."
After the eunuch retreated, Yu Qinglian stood up impatiently and asked, "What did the grand master mean by what he said just now? A thorough investigation of Si Tianjian?"
Shen Heshanhan nodded with a face on his face and said: "I have only heard people mention it once or twice. Si Tianjian gave instructions to the beauties who paid tribute. He boasted too much and aroused the Queen Mother's suspicion. The Queen Mother ordered a thorough investigation overnight."
Yu Qinglian became more and more nervous. She grabbed her handkerchief and asked, "I'm just investigating the beauties who paid tribute. Is it possible to investigate things that happened more than ten years ago?"
"I don't know, but from the tone of that father-in-law's tone, I'm afraid they'll be investigated." Shen Heshan took a deep breath and said, "It's only been one night, so even if we find something, it should be very little."
"Then what does the Queen Mother want to see Shen Zhuoxi for?" Yu Qinglian paced back and forth uneasily and said, "It has been more than ten years since the Queen Mother ordered us to raise her, and she has never sent anyone to ask for news about her."
"Now that I've been summoned suddenly, I'm afraid I've noticed something. Si Tianjian's matter won't involve the Earl's Mansion..."
Shen Heshan was upset because of the sudden incident. She said she had a headache and said impatiently: "What's the use of nagging you? You might as well go to Shen Zhuoxi's place and have a look and tell her not to say anything she shouldn't! "
Yu Qinglian didn't dare to say anything anymore and ordered Nanny Hua to take the clothes and jewelry prepared for Shen Xinjiao and go to Xiaoxiang Tower.
Aunt Ju was still searching in the closet.
All the clothes were turned out, and none of them could be taken out. She said with a grimace: "Your clothes are all made of rough materials, sewn and mended. It would be disrespectful to wear them to see the Queen Mother!"
"Don't be in a hurry, someone will see you off." Shen Zhuoxi said calmly, "We shouldn't be in a hurry."
Sure enough, Grandma Ju folded the messy clothes and put them back in the closet, and saw Yu Qinglian leading many people into the courtyard gate.
Entering the room, she saw Shen Zhuoxi still sitting. Aunt Hua looked at Yu Qinglian's slightly frowning brows and reprimanded Aunt Ju: "The queen mother wants to see the second young lady, why don't you dress up your master?"
Aunt Ju told the truth: "I also want to take care of you, but the second lady has nothing."
"Second Miss is always going crazy, and she can't wear even the best clothes." Aunt Hua cut her off and motioned for the maid to come forward to dress Shen Zhuoxi, while saying, "Aunt Ju has been working hard these days."
"Second Miss will enter the palace in a moment, so you can have a good rest at home."
"How can that be done?" Aunt Ju said subconsciously: "The second young lady has not been in the palace for many years and lacks etiquette. It would be bad to make the Queen Mother angry."
"Why not?" Nanny Hua said with a smile: "In front of the Queen Mother, you are still worried that someone will bully the second lady. I remember that Nanny Cui served in Princess Xiaoqing's courtyard."
"Let Aunt Cui accompany the second young lady in. She knows all the palace rules and etiquette, so she will definitely not make any mistakes."
Aunt Ju also understood now that Yu Qinglian and others were worried that their master and servant would expose the evil deeds of the Taishi Mansion in front of the Queen Mother, so they did not let her go!
At this time, the maids had changed Shen Zhuoxi's clothes and walked out of the inner room in a crowd.
Yu Qinglian asked to leave immediately, and Shen Zhuoxi took the opportunity to wink at Aunt Ju.
Aunt Ju understood what she meant, and was full of worry as she watched the group of people gradually go away.
The Queen Mother only summoned Shen Zhuoxi, and even Yu Qinglian was not qualified to follow her. Aunt Hua explained repeatedly before letting Aunt Cui serve.
As soon as she got on the carriage, Aunt Cui threw away the hand holding Shen Zhuoxi and sneered: "I really don't understand what Madam is thinking. So what if she is summoned? It's impossible for a fool to regain the Queen Mother's love!"
It was she who used a silver hairpin to cause Grandma Ju to be beaten.
Shen Zhuoxi looked at Aunt Cui expressionlessly, her eyes were cold, as if she were looking at a dead person.
Aunt Cui wanted to insult a few words, but she felt a chill go down her spine. She avoided her eyes and leaned on the car wall to fall asleep. She said in a muffled voice: "The Queen Mother will ask you a question later. You don't have to speak. I'll tell you for you." .”
When they arrived at the palace gate, the carriage couldn't get in. Aunt Cui got out of the car and pretended to lead Shen Zhuoxi to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace.
The weather in June is very hot outside, and there are several large ice trays in Cining Palace, which is very cool.
The Queen Mother is sitting at the top, with kind eyes, gorgeous and majestic purple palace clothes, holding a white chess piece in her hand, playing chess with herself, and seems to have not heard the footsteps of the two people.
A nun who was dressed similar to the master came forward and whispered: "The Queen Mother, the second lady of the Taishi Mansion is here."
The Queen Mother then put down her chess pieces and looked up.
At first glance, Shen Zhuoxi looked as thin as a little monkey, with a scab on his face.
Maybe the clothes didn't fit him well. When he walked, his skirt shrank down to his ankles, exposing a yellowed trouser leg.
The head is covered with gold, silver, pearls and emeralds, like a peacock in full bloom, very ostentatious.
She has a big head covered with accessories, and her body looks increasingly thin. She doesn't look like the dignified Princess Xiaoqing from both sides, but there are some similarities between her eyebrows.
The Queen Mother's expression did not change, but she subconsciously felt unhappy in her heart.
Princess Xiaoqing has been raised by her for more than ten years, and she is very talented and famous. Her daughter should not be like this if she is not famous in the world.
Especially when he stood still and stood there in a daze, unable to even perform a basic salute.
The nun next to the Queen Mother cleared her throat and scolded Aunt Cui: "Why don't you help the master and salute you if you have no eyesight to see it?"
Aunt Cui lost her previous arrogance and knelt down to salute, not forgetting to tug at the corner of Shen Zhuoxi's clothes.
Shen Zhuoxi really didn't know how to salute. Anyway, others thought she was a fool, so she just swaggered around and looked at the furnishings of Cining Palace.
When Grandma Cui saw that she was not moving, she stood up to pull her in a hurry. The grandma next to the Queen Mother saw this and said angrily: "What kind of rule is this? How can a slave pull and pull at her master?"
"I know my mistake." Aunt Cui knelt down again and explained: "Second Miss is not smart, I really have no choice."
"That's all." The Queen Mother frowned slightly, her kindness faded, and she became more majestic: "Where did you get the injury on your face?"
"Go back to the Queen Mother." Aunt Cui rushed to say, "The second lady was playing for fun and accidentally fell down and scratched it on the stone."
"Lying." Shen Zhuoxi immediately retorted, blinking his innocent eyes and said, "I was beaten."
Aunt Cui didn't expect her to be disobedient. She glared hard and explained with a sneer: "The second young lady is not clear-headed and is talking nonsense. The Grand Master's Mansion provides good food and drink. Who dares to do something to the second young lady."
Shen Zhuoxi didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and lifted up the clothes that didn't reach her wrists, revealing the bruises on her arms.
Some of the wounds have turned brown, and they look like adult wounds, with scabbed whip marks still among them.
No matter how much the Queen Mother didn't like it, she was Princess Xiaoqing's only bloodline. She was furious and dropped her hand heavily on the table: "Didn't you say that no one dared to do it?"
"Don't tell Aijia, these injuries were also caused by falling!"
