Destroy the harem, abolish the queen fiercely

At this moment, although the night has been very low-key, but because of the high-profile of His Majesty the Emperor, it finally attracted the murderous intent of Li's mother and daughter.

It was already noon since the guests left, and at night, she dragged her tired feet back to the yard, and the big box had been completely placed in her room.The thing bestowed by the emperor was also for her, even Li Shi could not dare to keep it privately.

In the evening, I washed and washed first, and changed into homely clothes. Because there was no earth dragon and only a charcoal basin was burning, I wrapped it in a thick cotton coat with silk patterns, and then I sat cross-legged on the couch, quietly lost in thought. .Seeing that she didn't open her mouth at night and didn't ask what to do with the box, Dong Qing moved a brocade stool and took the sewing frame to start sewing.Speaking of the past, life was really difficult, because the monthly expenses were all based on the monthly bill, and the girl's expenses were often not enough, so every time they made needles and thread and sold them quietly, so as to make up for it.Now that there is a reward from the emperor, there is no shortage of gold and silver, but since the draft is about to be drafted, I have to prepare some delicate handkerchief purses for the girl, for fear that they will be used in the future.

I heard from an experienced mother that all the maids and eunuchs in this palace are flattering, and they can save a lot of trouble with a single word. Run broken legs.So Dongqing thinks that no matter whether the girl can enter the palace or not, she has to prepare first. Even if she does not enter the palace, she will always marry in the future, and such things as being married are even more indispensable. In short, it is right to be diligent and do more. .

The two masters and servants, one is sitting quietly with needlework, the other is in a daze silently, at the side is Xuexue who doesn't know what to do, she thinks about it and goes out to make tea and serve it to the night, remembering what the eldest girl said, she wants to She opened her mouth to ask about the box, but the room was so eerily quiet that she didn't dare to speak. Recently, when she looked at the night, she felt a sense of fear, and she always remembered what happened that day.Afraid in my heart, I didn't dare to speak anymore.

Evening didn't respond to Ruxue, knowing what she wanted to ask, the more she looked like this, the less she would open the box in front of Ruxue.I simply took a book of women's rings and read it myself. Because it was a bit cold, I didn't do needlework at night.Speaking of which, her needlework is really unrecognizable. In her previous life, she wanted to tailor and sew clothes for Mu Yuanche herself, and she learned from the embroiderer of the East Palace for a few days.It's just that she really didn't want to do these things, she just embroidered a purse for Mu Yuanche, and after being laughed at by him, she threw it away.

In this life, due to the pressure of livelihood, she has studied seriously for a while, but her clever mind may be incompatible with needlework, and she can't always do it well. , threading the needles one by one, it looks like a painting, but Dong Qing is not as good as her, and makes the night proud. Their master and servant are really a match made in heaven.

Until after dinner, I went to bed and rested without mentioning unpacking at night.Dongqing was on duty at night, and Ruxue had no choice but to leave disgruntled.

"Girl, what should I do with this box? Don't you keep opening it?" Dong Qing asked in a low voice, the lights in the room had already been turned off, leaving only a small night light.

At night, I really can't figure out what Mu Yuanche is going to do. His mind has always been deep, even if he tries to guess with all his strength, he may not be able to guess half of it, not to mention that she has been away for so long. The mood became more and more uncertain, and it was impossible to guess.

"After a while, I fell asleep and it was late at night. Let's open it secretly to see what's inside. If you are taboo, put it away first, then restore the box to its original state, and open it in front of Xuexue tomorrow." Night I was afraid that if I opened the box rashly, there would be something troublesome inside, so I didn’t open the box tonight, I just waited to scan it first at night.

Dong Qing nodded, "That's right, I'm in the main courtyard today, and I just saw that my wife and the eldest girl looked at you a little bit unkindly, so you have to be more careful in the future. Even slaves have to keep their spirits up." Come on, the draft is coming soon, if something unexpected happens at this juncture, it's hard to say."

Dongqing is calm and thinks a lot about things. Although she always feels that her daughter has too many secrets, this does not hinder her loyalty.

"Yeah, it will definitely not be peaceful in the future. Dongqing, you should be careful yourself. Walking in the mansion, you would rather suffer a loss than fight against others. You are suffering now, and one day your girl will let you get it back in a good way. But now we can't." Ye Ye's voice was a bit bitter, how useless she is now, even a girl beside her can't be saved, so she can only act wronged.

"Yes, this servant knows, and is not wronged. A girl can bear it, and I am not so delicate as a servant."

"Only by suffering through hardships can we be the best people, and one day we will no longer have to look at anyone's face to live." Ye Ye closed her eyes and whispered softly, yes, one day she will stand in front of Mrs. Gan and look down. Looking at her, watching her fall out of favor step by step, fall into despair step by step, and fall into the abyss step by step.One day, she will step on that throne, the place that belongs to her and look down on all beings.

She will get back what is owed to her.

Xia Yinyue, Mu Yuanche, you must live well, live well, and don't let me down.

In the middle of the night, Dong Qing got up quietly, and the two of them slowly opened the box with Ye Ye. When they opened it, they were stunned.

At night, I suddenly didn't want to say a word, the box was a mess of all the popular gadgets on the market.There are still sugar figurines quietly placed in boxes made of white jade. Each sugar figurine costs a penny, but the box containing the sugar figurines is made of high-quality white jade, which can only be bought for hundreds of silver.

The rest are similar to this. The candied haws are placed in a rectangular box made of red gold inlaid with various gemstones.The twelve zodiac signs pinched on the face are lying in a hollowed-out ivory box...

Looking at the night, Dongqing finally couldn't help it anymore, and said in a low voice: "Girl, is this something normal people can do? Things worth a few pennies are placed in this precious box...you must be awake to do it." out of this."

When Dong Qing said this about her depressed mood at night, she felt relieved and smiled, "You're right, only people who haven't woken up can do this."

"What about the contents of this box?"

"Let's put it inside, there's nothing to hide." He put on his clothes and went to bed at night. After thinking about it, he really couldn't figure out why Mu Yuanche did such a convulsion.

He didn't sleep well all night, and when he woke up the next day, his expression at night was a little sluggish, because Li Shi confessed that he didn't need to go to pay his respects, so he simply stayed in bed.It's just that Ye Xi hadn't slept for long, and Ye Xi came running over, and Ye Xi's temper was so loud that he asked about the box.

Presumably because she didn't open the box last night, Sixue couldn't see anything, so she asked the reckless Ye Xi this morning, and Ye Xi could indeed do this, treating other people's things as her own.

"When you say that, I haven't opened the box yet." Ye Ye lifted up the quilt and sat up, looked at Ye Xi and said casually, "I also want to know what's inside, but I was a little angry yesterday , I caught my lantern at the lantern festival at first glance, but I didn't expect it to be snatched away, I was really not in the mood to look at this box yesterday."

Ye Xi blinked and asked, "You mean that lantern is yours?"

"Of course it's mine, isn't it mine or someone else's? That glazed lantern is very valuable, ten taels of silver." Ye Ye sighed, "It's a pity that the store only has such a lantern of four gentlemen in a glazed quadrangular flower. Otherwise, the emperor They won't come to snatch me either."

Hearing Ye Xi's complaints, Ye Xi thought it was a bit credible, so she shouted to see what was in the box.

At night, Dong Qing asked Dong Qing to take out the key to open the box, and stood aside to watch while she put on her clothes, but Ye Xi couldn't take her eyes off the box.When the box was opened, Ye Xi was dumbfounded, apparently also taken aback by the situation inside.

"What you said is true?" Yechen seemed a little unbelievable, looking at the girl and asked.

"Why are you lying to me? The penny candy figurines are placed in a white jade box, and the candied haws are placed in a long box made of red gold. By the way, the zodiac signs are placed in the hollowed-out ivory box." In the box, I really don’t know what that person thinks.”

Yechen looked at Li Shi, and then heard Li Shi ask: "What was your expression that night?"

"She was also stunned for a long time and couldn't come to her senses." Ye Xi sneered, and said, "What's wrong, the things in the box are worthless, but the box is worth money. Apart from these, there are still Some rouge and gouache, as well as the fans and handkerchiefs used by girls are worthless."

After sending Ye Xi away, Ye Chen looked at Li Shi, "Mother, what do you mean by the emperor, it's really strange."

Li Shi couldn't figure it out for a while, so she said: "No matter what it means, in short, night must not be allowed to enter the palace at this moment. We can't delay any longer. Tomorrow, Mrs. Xu's [-]th birthday, our two families have always had Come and go, take the night with you, and then you will be like this..."

Li Shi whispered a few words in Yechen's ear, Yechen frowned, nodded after some hesitation.

Mrs. Xu mentioned by Mrs. Li is the wife of Xu Mingde, a scholar in charge of the Hanlin Academy. She is exactly 40 years old this year, and there are no in-laws above, and it is a full age, so it is more lively.To say that the Xu family can be regarded as a scholarly family, and their official positions are not very high, but they have been rooted in the Hanlin Academy for generations and have a high reputation, so they are also a respectable family in Kyoto.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Xu knew each other before they got married, and they have never broken up in these years, so they will definitely go to Mrs. Xu's birthday.

When I heard the news at night, I was a little surprised, I didn't expect Li Shi to bring her to such an occasion.This is not like Li Shi's usual temper. At such a time, she wished she could lock herself up at home so that no one would pay attention.

If things are abnormal, there must be something wrong.At night, I was not sure what Li Shi was going to do, but it was always right to be careful.

Ruxue came in holding a suit of clothes, looked at the night and said: "Girl, this is sent by Madam, and it is specially made for the girl. Today, the girls have new clothes for the banquet."
