The Concubine's Conspiracy: Rebirth of the Poisonous Concubine

Chapter 39
A group of soldiers in bright yellow armor walked into Ning Xin Courtyard with uniform steps.

The powerful and steady sound of kicking seemed to step on everyone's hearts. Those soldiers, all with expressionless faces and swords in their belts, rushed in all the way, and surrounded the entire Ning Xin Yuan.

This sudden battle frightened all the aunts and ladies, all of them were stunned, and the shining blade made everyone's faces look ashen, and the second aunt even screamed immediately: "Officers and soldiers, why are there so many here suddenly?" Officers and soldiers, could it be that something happened to the master in the court?"

Mrs. Luo's face was also slightly dark. Hearing this, she glanced at her displeasedly, but said nothing. The second aunt was frightened by that look, and shrank straight to Luo Qingxuan.

Luo Qingxuan patted the back of her hand comfortingly, and said: "Don't worry, Auntie, this is not the Habayashi Army, nor the Imperial City Guards, but the Princess's personal guards. So, Daddy is fine."

After all, Luo Qingxuan had seen the world, so he could tell the origins of these soldiers at a glance, and explained Aunt Xue's panic into being worried about Luo Bingshu.

However, what he said is correct, aren't these soldiers the personal soldiers of Princess Yongzhao?
Yong Zhao is the empress dowager's own daughter, a princess of the dynasty, before she got married, not only the emperor gave her a fief of three thousand miles, but the empress dowager also gave her three thousand soldiers and guards.

Mrs. Luo obviously knew this too, so she didn't show the slightest fear, but was more shocked, and that wrinkled face was also full of anger.

Almost at the moment Luo Qingxuan finished speaking, an exquisite and small embroidered shoe stepped into the high threshold at the second door. Fluttering and swaying, she is also very wealthy, but the person who comes is not the mistress of the Xiangfu, Princess Yongzhao as everyone imagined.

It was her daughter... Luo Xian'er.

"Xian'er met grandma."

Luo Xian'er led a group of maidservants to the inner room, gave Mrs. Luo a blessing, glanced at everyone one by one, and paused for a moment on Luo Wuyou's body, with a deeper smile on her face: "Hey , Why are all the big guys here today, that's good, so that the princess will not send people to invite them one by one."

"I've seen the princess." Luo Qingxuan saluted Luo Xian'er first.When all the aunts and ladies saw this, they all rushed to salute.

Luo Wuyou lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head after performing the salute, and stood quietly on the sidelines, watching from the sidelines, as if everything that happened in front of her had nothing to do with her, but Luqing and Tangyuan beside her all looked terrified. Tang Yuan tugged at her sleeve involuntarily.

The latter just glanced at her lightly.

That glance made Tangyuan's panicked mood instantly calm down.

Mrs. Luo, looking at Luo Xian'er, the expression on her face was not relaxed, but rather deep: "Where is your mother? Why did people surround my old lady's yard? My old lady committed another heinous crime, let you You worked so hard, and even dispatched your own soldiers and guards, do you want to put me, my wife, in a prison?"

The old lady's words were not insignificant, and she didn't even call Luo Xian'er by name. As the old matriarch in the prime minister's mansion, she also had a first-rank order.

Although Yong Zhao is a princess, she is also her mother-in-law.Unexpectedly, her good daughter-in-law actually asked her daughter, her granddaughter, to lead people around her yard.

Really, it's too deceiving!

"Grandmother, don't be angry. My mother didn't know about this matter. My mother gave me the three hundred soldiers a long time ago. Now, I only obey Xian'er's orders."

Luo Xian'er smiled and said, "Xian'er doesn't dare to let them surround grandma's yard, but this matter has a lot to do with it, and Xian'er is here to ask the mistress to make decisions for her granddaughter, just because Xian'er will ask her later. The work needs a lot of manpower, so I specially transferred them here. Grandma, don't get me wrong."

"What the hell is it that makes such a big fight? If you can't tell how ugly you are, don't blame the old man for going to the palace today, and let the emperor uphold justice for the old man." The old lady's anger did not subside. Zeng, I thought it was her good daughter-in-law who did it, but unexpectedly, it was her good granddaughter who made it her own.

Even if there is a big thing, you can't talk to her properly. If you insist on letting these soldiers break into her yard, and say that she is here to make decisions, it is still a shame to be slapped in the face by a junior like this in public. It was the first time she had lived in more than fifty years.

How could she not be angry, how could she bear it.

"Grandmother..." The smile on Luo Xian'er's face disappeared, and her red lips were slightly pursed: "To be honest, Xian'er doesn't want to do this either, but our Prime Minister's Mansion is really not very clean, and you know it too, Xianer I just came back to the mansion a few days ago, but there are those petty people who did something like a peeping rat, and even stole the things of the princess under the blue sky and broad daylight, it is simply audacious."

Everyone couldn't help but curl their lips inwardly. It's just that something was lost, and they can't do it without sending someone to look for it. Why did it make it look like the sky is falling? It scared them to death, and made them think that it was Xiangye who offended Longyan, given by the emperor...

Luo Qingxuan frowned slightly when she heard the words, and her intuition told her that things were not that simple.

"Then what exactly did you lose, and who stole it?" Mrs. Luo asked in a deep voice.

"Which little boy is it? If Xian'er knows, there is no need to be so anxious and alarm the mistress." Luo Xian'er said angrily: "If it was something else that was stolen, then that's fine, it's a big deal, Xian'er I think I am unlucky, but the gold medal was given to Xianer by the emperor's uncle, it is a gift from the emperor, and Xianer cannot bear the responsibility for losing the gold medal from the emperor."

After Luo Xian'er finished speaking, everyone's minds buzzed, and within a short while, the alarm bell was sounded. Stealing the imperial gold medal was a capital offense, and if they were found out, they might even be imprisoned.

Everyone looked panic-stricken, you looked at me, I looked at you, they all seemed to be guessing.

At this moment, it seems that looking at the people around me, everyone looks like that daring thief.

Even Mrs. Luo's eyebrows twitched.

However, Luo Xian'er seemed to feel that the expressions on everyone's faces were not panic-stricken enough, and said: "The token is not only a gift from the emperor, but the holder can enter and leave the palace at will. Xian'er is not afraid of anything else, just I'm afraid, that person stole the token with ulterior motives. If he really entered the palace with Xian'er's token, did something unscrupulous, or even, even, wanted to assassinate the emperor's uncle, I'm afraid, we all know each other. The city will..."

Needless to say, if the token was really stolen by someone with a heart, in order to assassinate the emperor, not to mention the person who stole it, even the entire Prime Minister's Mansion would be doomed.

"I really don't know which wicked rat, dare to steal in the Prime Minister's mansion, and even dare to steal the princess's things. I really borrowed my courage from the sky."

"That's right, if you catch him, you must hand over that dog who steals the soul and the mouse to the Ministry of Punishment, and betray him to cut him up. Cutting him into pieces by a thousand knives would be cheap for him."

"Fortunately, the Princess found out about this matter early. If that person really got it, I'm afraid all of us will be buried for that person."

"Whoever said no, this thief is too hateful. It's not good to steal someone's gold medal. It must be the princess. Isn't this harming us?"

"..."

Everyone was panicked for a while, and there was a lot of discussion, and the female relatives even cursed in a low voice. Seeing that everyone said more and more outrageous, the more they said, the more outrageous they became.

bang——

Mrs. Luo immediately smashed her jade crutch to the ground, and shouted angrily, "What are you arguing about? Even if the sky falls, there will be an old body to carry it for you, so why worry?"

The servant fell silent immediately, and the old lady looked at Luo Xian'er again and said: "Xian'er, you said that your imperial gold medal was lost, where and when was it lost? Is there anyone you suspect?"

"Grandmother Rong, the previous one, when Xian'er returned to the mansion, she only chatted with a few sisters by the lotus pond, and the token disappeared at that time. I don't know."

As she said that, Luo Xian'er's eyes glanced at several people, and Luo Mingxi and Luo Mingzhi, who were swept by those eyes, suddenly changed their expressions, and immediately knelt down in front of the old lady.

"Grandmother, Zhi'er has never done it, really, I..." Luo Mingzhi was terrified at first, but when everyone looked at her suspiciously, she trembled with fear and couldn't help crying .

However, Luo Mingxi said angrily: "Grandmother Mingjian, this matter has nothing to do with Mingzhu, even if Mingzhu was given a hundred courage, Mingzhu would not dare to steal the token of the princess. Mingxi has no idea what the gold medal looks like." I don’t know how to steal it, and besides, what’s the use of the token for my granddaughter? It’s clearly done by someone else, but I deliberately framed it on my granddaughter.”

Compared to Shao Mingzhi who was at a loss and couldn't even speak clearly, Luo Mingxi had a much clearer mind, and his words were well-organized.But in her heart, she was regretful. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have gone up to join in the fun that day. As a result, she didn't join in the fun, and instead caused a commotion.

"That's right, old lady, Xi'er has always been well-behaved and obedient, and she will never do such a rebellious thing. The princess also said that besides Xi'er, there were other ladies around that day, and I begged the old man Let people investigate this matter, find out the real culprit, and return Miss Er's innocence." Aunt Wan also knelt down and hurriedly helped her daughter speak.

No matter whether Xi'er has done it or not, now, they can't admit it, and their mother and daughter together can't bear the crime of stealing the imperial gift.

In a word, now that this matter has become a big problem, it is right to push it on others.

"Old Madam, Fourth Miss has always been timid, she dare not even step on an ant, let alone take a needle from a person, and ask Old Madam to be the master of Fourth Miss." Aunt Ping also knelt on the ground crying, He looked at the old lady pleadingly.

Four people, four mouths, all of them were speaking to excuse their guilt.As for Aunt Wan's words, there is even more truth in her words.

As we all know, besides Luo Mingxi and Luo Mingzhi, there were two other people by the lotus pond, one of them was Luo Mingxia, but Luo Mingxia entered the lotus pond at sunset that day, fell ill twice, After returning to the yard, he fell ill strangely again, and the big guys naturally knew about it.

Apart from Luo Mingzhu and Luo Mingzhi, the remaining suspect, needless to say, was well known to everyone.

For a moment, all eyes were on Luo Wuyou.

Those gazes included suspicion, scrutiny, resentment, resentment, and direct indifference. Even her grandmother, Mrs. Luo, who was smiling at her a few days ago, had a gloomy expression. Looking at her, there was no trace of sympathy in the cloudy and majestic eyes, and no one stood up to argue for her.

Under everyone's scorching gaze, the girl stood up straight with a smile like a spring breeze on the corner of her mouth, like a proud plum blossom in winter.

"What are you looking at me for? Could it be that you suspect that the so-called thief is me? Grandma, don't even you believe in Wuyou?"

After a long time, the girl's red lips parted slightly, and the words she uttered were as cold as snow, but the last words were like the cold wind in winter blowing through the withered grass in the wilderness, carrying an eternal sadness.
