Cat Lord is ready to be captured

Chapter 77
"This is the famous Master of the State Teacher?"

The woman who spoke was very young, dressed in a bright red palace dress, with crimson eye fat painted on the corners of her eyes, she had a pair of peach blossom eyes, and her frown and smile were all charming.

Xiao Jingsi raised her eyes and saw that this was Emperor Shun's favorite concubine, Concubine Qian, the master of Yaohua Palace.

Concubine Qian raised her eyebrows and looked at it, with the corners of her eyes slightly raised, with a half-smile: "This face is born enough to bring disaster to the country and the people."

There seemed to be a bit of contempt in his tone.

Perhaps it was because of the uprooted apricot blossom tree that night, the imperial army searched for apricot blossom petals all over the place and indeed found the Xingyue Palace, but the national teacher in the Xingyue Palace, how could he offend at will? Yes, therefore, the clue was broken in Xingyue Palace.

Because of this accident, this concubine Qian was naturally hiding needles in her cotton and thorns in her words.

Xiao Jingsi was neither annoyed nor angry, and poured tea by herself: "I am not as good as your empress."

With four or two strokes, Concubine Qian's words were refuted softly, and she said angrily: "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth!"

"Concubine Qian, pay attention to your proportions."

The gentle and soft voice is the biological mother of King Xuan Feng Rongli, concubine Shu Xiaowen, the daughter of the Wen family who is the richest man in Daliang, known for being kind and magnanimous, with a gentle appearance, and the same as the deceased Qinnan Princess Dawen are somewhat similar.

Concubine Shu is acting temporarily as empress and in charge of the harem. Concubine Qian is more or less concerned about her: "The concubine is rude."

Afterwards, there was another exchange of pleasantries. Xiao Jingsi had no negotiations with the women in the palace on weekdays, and she was not familiar with the wives and ladies of the aristocratic family. Baode was unable to attend due to business. The daughters of the Xiao family are able to do things with ease, Xiao Fuchen has the ability to advance and retreat, and has the calmness of the future prince and concubine, and Xiao Ningyu is also charming and innocent, laughing at Yan Yan.

It seemed that Xiao Jingsi was out of place.

After a cup of tea, Empress Dowager Shen asked: "What time is it, why hasn't the Empress been seated yet?"

Concubine Rong replied: "I have already sent someone to remind me a few times."

Concubine Rong Xie is the biological mother of King Jin, the daughter of Xie's family in the Governor's Mansion of Siqiying. She is not as gentle and kind as Concubine Wen Shu, but she also knows how to behave.

On the contrary, Concubine Ming who was sitting beside Concubine Rong was more domineering and flamboyant, her words were sharp: "Sister Queen's airs are naturally no better than ordinary people, Queen Mother, you have spared her from confinement, she has put on the airs of Queen."

Since the death of King Yi, this Concubine Ming has been at odds with the Empress both openly and secretly. The Holy One is sympathetic to Concubine Ming's loss of her son, and has indulged her very much. Therefore, Concubine Ming is targeting the Empress even more.

Concubine Wen Shu has always been kind to others, so she said: "Fengqi Palace is a short distance from Huayang Palace, maybe it's because of the heavy snow, the queen's sister got stuck for a while."

The Empress Dowager Shen looked displeased: "As the mother of a country, you don't restrain yourself, what kind of dignity is it, you don't need to wait. Lingzhi, make tea."

Ling Zhi stood up, bowed to everyone, and called the maid to serve tea.

Ling Zhi, the owner of Yiyang County, is known to be talented. This method of making tea is also very elegant. He took some clean plain snow, boiled it with silver charcoal, put in a little tea, and repeated it three times until the astringent smell dissipated. , Fang added Longquan water from the deep well to boil, and after a while, the fragrance of tea wafted up.

This princess of Yiyang County is worthy of being brought up by the queen mother, he is really a transparent person, and all the wives in the pavilion are full of praise.

Ling Zhi poured Xiao Jingsi a cup of her favorite scented tea.

"Thank you." Xiao Jingsi took a sip, it was light and sweet, and the fragrance remained on his lips and teeth.

Ling Zhi smiled slightly: "Master Guo Shi is so polite."

Feng Guanlan came late, saying that the queen was ill and needed to come later, and ordered her to come to plead guilty to the queen mother, and the queen mother waved her hand, that's all.

Feng Guanlan took the seat next to Xiao Jingsi, begged Ling Zhi for a cup of tea with a smile, downed it in one gulp, and said after drinking it, "My princess is dying of thirst, Princess Yiyang can pour me another cup. "

Ling Zhi smiled and refilled her tea.

Feng Guanlan was so proud that he drank three cups in a row.

Such a drink!Really practiced this good tea.Xiao Jingsi shook her head and laughed.

Xiao Ningyu came over with tea: "Seventh Sister."

Xiao Jingsi raised her eyes.

Xiao Ningyu bowed slightly, and said that she was polite: "Seventh sister is in a high position now, it is not easy for elder sister to see younger sister. Father heard that I was going to the palace for a banquet today, so he asked me several times to entrust a few words on his behalf."

Xiao Jingsi listened attentively and did not speak.

Afterwards, there was a lot of hush and warm words, which made all the wives nod frequently. Although they are concubines, they have excellent etiquette and conduct, but the national teacher is very indifferent.

The tea was already cold, Xiao Ning Yufang stood up.

Feng Guanlan was speechless: "You concubine sister, you have a lot of drama."

Xiao Jingsi was noncommittal.

Xiao Ningyu greeted everyone, smiling shyly and timidly: "I haven't seen my sister for a long time, so it's impolite to talk too much."

Concubine Wen Shu smiled: "No problem."

Feng Guanlan shook her head, life is like a play, seeing Xiao Ningyu holding up the teacup, well, the play is not over yet.

Xiao Ningyu continued to serve well-behaved and sensible, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Xiao Jingsi: "Now that my sister is staying in the Xingyue Palace, you and my sisters don't seem to be able to see each other often when we are at home. I am very happy to see you today, and my sister will Borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, borrowing tea from Princess Yiyang, toast to my sister."

What kind of tea are you toasting? It's a scam.Feng Guanlan clasped her hands, gloating over the good show, but she didn't see Xiao Jingsi on guard, so calm and composed, she stretched out her hand to take the teacup.

Xiao Ningyu handed it slowly——

"Boom!"

The teacup slipped, and in an instant, it was torn apart. The tea spilled all over Xiao Ningyu's hands, soaking a lot of her sleeves. She flicked her sleeves in pain, and her wrists were instantly red.

Xiao Ningyu looked panic-stricken, her eyes were fixed, and she wanted to cry: "Sister Jingsi..."

Xiao Fuchen who was sitting opposite suddenly stood up and shouted: "Jingsi, what are you doing?"

Xiao Jingsi brushed her dress, frowned, and wiped the tea stains on the skirt with an embroidered handkerchief.

Such an attitude, how arrogant.

"Isn't this obvious? The status of the national teacher has been put in front of the Queen Mother and Concubine Shu."

The person who spoke was Cheng Shi, the wife of the Uncle's Mansion. Beside her, Su Muci sat quietly, not saying a word from the beginning to the end. She was never familiar with others, but she only looked at Xiao Jingsi occasionally.

As soon as this happened, coupled with Xiao Ningyu's teardrops falling, all the wives and ladies present looked at each other. Because of the high position and authority of the national teacher Xiao Jingsi, they did not dare to blatantly criticize. Only Princess Minghui's family Princess Xianyang was young and energetic, stood up and pointed at Xiao Jingsi, and said, "Xiao Jingsi, you are too much! You don't drink if you don't drink, how can you bully Ning Yu like this."

Princess Minghui immediately pulled her ignorant daughter back and warned her softly.

Xiao Jingsi rubbed her brows, thinking carefully, how did she deal with it in her last life?She frowned, it's been a long time, and she doesn't remember very clearly.

In the previous life, the queen mother also held a banquet, and it was such a boring and stupid trick.

Xiao Jingsi really felt bored, but it was Feng Guanlan who took the lead: "You are playing a fake show, at least wait for the master of the state to touch the cup before letting go. With your ability, the circus doesn't want you! Besides, you avoid it." How can you forget about this princess if you don’t see it from other people’s point of view, you are blind like this princess?”

Everyone was surprised.

Xiao Ningyu's face turned pale, and she opened her mouth: "Princess..."

Feng Guanlan was impatient, like chasing flies: "Go away, go away, don't stand here and disturb my princess's interest in enjoying the snow."

Xiao Ningyu's face was as white as the snow outside the pavilion, and she looked like she was about to cry.

Concubine Wen Shu was kind-hearted, and she said: "Zhu'an, don't mess around." Then she turned to Ling Zhi and said, "Princess Yiyang, please take Miss Xiao Liu to change into clean clothes."

Ling Zhi nodded and led Xiao Ningyu to Huayang Palace.

Feng Guanlan sat back, continued to eat and drink, and teased Xiao Jingsi: "Why are you letting her dictate, this is not like your style."

Xiao Jingsi asked back, "What is my style?"

Feng Guanlan thought for a while, stared at Xiao Jingsi's face, and said eight words: "An eye for an eye, evil for evil."

Xiao Jingsi smiled, yes, an eye for an eye, evil for evil, but the time has not come.

At this time, Concubine Wen Shu's personal officer whispered something to her, and Concubine Shu frowned.

Xiao Jingsi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and muttered to herself, "It's almost time."

Feng Guanlan was stunned.

After a cup of tea, outside the Lotus Paste Pavilion, a female official from Huayang Palace hurriedly came to deliver a message.

"The Empress Dowager! The Empress Dowager!"

The person who came was the maidservant of Huayang Palace, Nanny Chang Ping.

Empress Dowager Shen was displeased: "There is no pattern in the panic, what does it look like!"

Nanny Chang Ping panted heavily, and knelt in front of the Queen Mother: "The Empress Dowager, the Concubine Shu, something happened to the side hall of the East Wing."

East Wing Hall...

Just now the female officer came to inform that King Xuan was temporarily resting in the East Chamber because he couldn't drink enough, Concubine Wen Shu's face changed greatly: "Tell me quickly, what happened?"

Aunt Chang Ping carefully looked at the two daughters of the Xiao family sitting on the seat, and said fearfully: "Miss Ning Yu, she, she... entered the East Chamber!"

Su Muci suddenly raised his head to look at Xiao Jingsi, his eyes were full of inquiry.

In the 29th year of Great Liang, Ning Yu, the sixth daughter of Duke Wen, lost her integrity in the side hall of Huayang Palace.

Afterwards, Empress Dowager Shen broke up the snow feast, and went to the East Chamber of Huayang Palace with several concubines who were in charge. Because it was related to the daughter of the Xiao family, the Master of the State Teacher and the prospective Crown Princess Fuchen went together.

When everyone arrived, Xiao Ningyu was sitting down beside the couch in a daze, the woman's dress was scattered on the floor, Xiao Ningyu was only wrapped in an outer dress, the clothes were not covering her body, her cheeks were flushed, she raised her eyes, Seeing Xiao Jingsi who was walking at the back, she rushed forward like crazy, grabbed her by the dress, and cried, "Jing Si, Jing Si, please help me."

Empress Dowager Shen and the others were all taken aback for a moment.

"Jing Si, I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything."

"I have not lost my integrity! I am innocent! Help me and explain to me."

Xiao Ningyu cried hoarsely. She knew that when the servants of the East Chamber Hall opened the door and saw her with all her clothes off, she was finished. Everything was finished. She cried loudly: "I know, you can definitely clear me , Jing Si, can you help me?"

Xiao Jingsi frowned, staring coldly at the heart-piercing woman on the ground.

Empress Dowager Shen glanced at the woman's clothes scattered on the floor beside the bed, and shouted: "What's going on? Tell the Ai family clearly!"

At this time, Zixiang came after him and said hurriedly, "Master, something happened."

After a wave of unrest, another incident occurred.

Xiao Jingsi frowned: "What's the matter?"

Zixiang leaned closer, leaning close to Xiao Jingsi's ear: "Master, something happened to Xinghua."

Her face suddenly sank, and she couldn't hear what the nanny who told the ins and outs said, her ears were buzzing, which made her a little confused, and she suddenly said: "Let go!"

The two words rang loudly, and suddenly, the hall was solemnly quiet.

Xiao Ningyu was stunned for a moment, crying more and more, begging bitterly: "I will never contradict you again, you can do whatever you want me to do, sister Jingsi, I beg you, please help me."

Xiao Jingsi raised her hand, flicked her sleeves heavily and pushed her away, shouting, "Get out!"

Xiao Ningyu was pushed down to the ground, watching Xiao Jingsi go away, crying hysterically, she knew that if Xiao Jingsi didn't make a move, she would be finished.

Feng Guanlan folded her hands, leaning against the entrance of the East Wing Hall, watched the commotion, and asked Jin Ling, the maid beside her, "Who is Xinghua?"

Jin Ling knew all kinds of gossip in the palace like the palm of his hand, and replied, "It's the cat of the Master of the State Teacher."

Hearing this, Feng Guanlan sighed: "In this world, people are not as good as cats." Sisters kill each other, pets come first, and then she thinks, "It's not that the time has not come yet, could it be?" Well, she nodded, with a look of sudden realization "An eye for an eye, evil for evil."

Feng Guanlan dares to be sure that Xiao Ningyu's dishonesty is something tricky!
Outside the Lianrong Pavilion is a [-]-meter-long bridge. On both sides, there are viewing lotus ponds. In the pond, there are several pavilions called Fengbo Pavilion. In this severe winter, the bridge deck is covered with snow, the footsteps are disorderly, and the ground is muddy. .

At the head of the bridge and at the end of the bridge, the imperial guards are guarding. On the bridge is the Empress of the Eastern Palace.

When Xiao Jingsi came, it was snowing, and the imperial guards at the bridge blocked her way.

She said coldly: "Go away!"

The imperial guards were startled, hesitated for a moment, and then gave way, this master of the state teacher, you can't mess with it.

On the bridge, when Jinghua saw Xiao Jingsi coming, she hurried forward and said, "My lord."

In Jinghua's arms, Xinghua was holding Xinghua. It was sleepy, but when it saw Xiao Jingsi, it became alive and struggled to jump on Xiao Jingsi.

"You fall fast." Empress Su stood a few meters away and looked at her coldly.

Xiao Jingsi turned a deaf ear and turned a blind eye to Empress Su, her face was frighteningly cold, her eyes were as cold as ice in the lotus pond, without any warmth: "Where does it hurt?"

Jinghua replied: "Legs."
