The concubine is so charming

Chapter 357 Being Targeted Again

Looking at Cuixuan, Yufu was startled when she saw the ink stains on Su Yao's dress, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her enter the door to change her clothes: "Miss, what's wrong with this, it's a nice and dirty dress ?”

Due to the embarrassment made by the queen mother when she first entered the palace, Su Yao's etiquette should be among the best in the palace. Even if she is asked to walk by a horizontal piece of wood, she can walk with great demeanor, knocking over the inkstone like today His actions must have caused someone to embarrass him.

Su Yao shook her head slightly, turned her head and said to Mu Zhaoyu with a smile: "I'm bothering sister Zhaoyu again today. Sister sits down for a while, and I will come out to talk to my sister after changing clothes."

"Okay, let's go quickly."

Mu Zhaoyu waited outside, and after a while, he found that Su Yao came out with the ink-stained clothes, and his eyebrows twitched: "Sister Ninghua, but what's wrong with the ink on this clothes?"

"I didn't notice anything unusual before, but when the sun shone today, I suddenly found that the font color of the two words on the paper was different from the others. When I looked carefully, it was slightly blue-purple. Xiang, come and see."

Wan Xiang hurriedly stepped forward, took the clothes and carefully observed the color of the ink. After a while, her expression changed slightly: "Miss, there is no poison in this ink, but it should be some spices added. The slave smells faintly like violets. .”

"Violet?"

"The ink itself has a smell, and the addition of violets should not be too much. The servants smell more like it, but I'm not sure."

Mu Zhaoyu frowned slightly: "Nowadays most of the ink used in the palace has to add spices to it, but the selected ones are all elegant in taste and not easy to affect the color of the ink. This is the first time I have heard of adding violets. After all This time Roland is wearing blue-purple, and the fragrance is not too strong, and the added ink will inevitably have the opposite effect."

Su Yao frowned and thought about it. She vaguely felt that there was something wrong with it, but she couldn't think of it for a while: "Violets are not poisonous, and adding them to the ink will affect the color of the ink, so it must have its unique use. Every action has a purpose, and if you don’t do your best, no one will do it. But what effect does being a violet play?"

Su Yao bent down to pick up the dress, and asked someone to bring water over. The water soaked some ink color and stained the paper. Then she took the paper and walked back and forth in the room to measure it carefully. She I feel like I've overlooked some details.

Mu Zhaoyu sat aside and waited patiently. Seeing that the teacup in her hand was cold, Yufu stepped forward to change it: "My servant will help the princess change the teacup."

"Okay, when this Biluochun tea was first brewed, the soup was clear green, but it changed color after a while, making it a bit difficult to drink."

Su Yao stopped suddenly, and a bright light flashed in his eyes: "My sister just said that the color changes over time, do you think the violet in this ink also has this purpose?"

Mu Zhaoyu's heart trembled, and he quickly raised his head: "Is this violet still changing color?"

Su Yao looked a little anxious, and repeatedly told Yufu: "Go quietly to the dining room, find a way to find some vinegar... Wait, it's too conspicuous to go to the dining room, contact Imperial Physician Qin. I will concoct some medicinal materials with vinegar, and let him find a way to bring some over."

"Yes."

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Yufu came into the room with a small bowl of vinegar. Su Yao poured the vinegar on a piece of cloth, and then baked the cloth with a candle, making the cloth smell sour. The heat stream slowly rises and smokes on the ink-stained paper.

Mu Zhaoyu stood aside, staring closely at the paper in front of him, and after a while, suddenly exclaimed: "It really changed!"

I saw that the ink on the paper gradually turned reddish, and then as the baking time got longer and longer, the red color became more and more intense, and finally turned black red, like coagulated fresh blood.

Su Yao put the paper in his hand aside, and the expression on his face was extremely ugly: "It's really a delicate thought, if I didn't accidentally find something wrong today, I'm afraid I really can't explain it this time. "

Mu Zhaoyu also had lingering fears: "That's not it, if the handwriting on this well-copied Buddhist scriptures turns red on the day of enshrining, wouldn't that indicate that the Buddhist scriptures are stained with blood? Zhao, and the Buddhist scriptures copied this time are all for the purpose of praying for the concubine Zhen. Such scriptures are not meant to pray for blessings. I’m afraid it’s good if they don’t cause harm. Angry, when the time comes, none of us who copy the Buddhist scriptures will be able to escape.”

Su Yao shook his head slightly, with a wry smile on his face: "It shouldn't be us, it's just me."

"Sister Ninghua," Mu Zhaoyu said anxiously, "You mean that this time the trick is only aimed at you?"

"My sister also saw it before. The accident that happened that day at the Qixi Festival banquet was to completely destroy me. My sister and Yufu were just implicated by me. It was just that I saw through the trick last time and avoided it cleverly, so This time the scheme is designed to be more secretive and insidious, if it is not for the blessing of the heavens, I am afraid that it will really fall."

"Then sister, you have to think about how to deal with it. You have copied most of the Buddhist scriptures. One day tomorrow, the Buddhist scriptures will be copied, and the copied Buddhist scriptures have been handed over to the palace servants for preservation. If you think about it again, don't worry about it." easy."

Su Yao's expression was serious, she paced back and forth and thought carefully, after a while, she stopped and said, "If the handwriting on my Buddhist scriptures turns red, it means that I was restless when copying the scriptures and deliberately cursed Concubine Zhen Empress, what if all the Buddhist scriptures turn red? I’m afraid it’s not our problem, but the person being blessed is inauspicious, that’s why he offends the gods and is unwilling to protect him.”

Mu Zhaoyu thought for a moment, then nodded heavily: "Although this method is risky, if it succeeds, it will definitely leave a shadow of doubt in the emperor's heart. In this way, it can be regarded as letting the person who did it secretly steal the chicken. rice."

"It's just that, it's inevitable that my sister and I will take the risk together."

"I said a long time ago that anyone who can help you will spare no effort. My sister should not be so polite to me."

"Sister, don't worry. Although the process is dangerous, I will definitely arrange everything so that my sister will not be implicated."

"I believe you."

"Tomorrow is the last day of copying scriptures, so I won't keep my sister any longer, and I'll have a good rest after I go back."

Mu Zhaoyu knew that Su Yao was going to arrange the layout, so he got up quickly: "Then I'll go back first, if there is anything else, let someone notify me in time."

"it is good."

After sending Mu Zhaoyu away, Su Yao dispatched a basket to deliver news to Chu Feiyan, and at the same time waited in the secret room. After waiting for more than an hour, Chu Feiyan arrived in a hurry when it was almost midnight .
