Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 80 Tiankeng
Ming concubine handed over the important task of delivering candles to Xi'er, but this maid went out early in the morning, Ming concubine had finished her lunch, and she still didn't come back.

Ming concubine was worried that something had happened to her when she didn't come back. Seeing the snow geese looking around frequently, Ming concubine comforted her and said, "Maybe it's just playfulness, and I walked around the street twice more."

Just after finishing speaking, a familiar sound of footsteps came from the outer courtyard, Xue Yan said, "It's Xi'er's footsteps."

As she said that, she went up to meet her, and saw Xi'er rolled up a few pieces of paper in her hand, she asked, "Why did it take so long to come back?"

Xi'er walked in and said, "The candle is poisonous, so I dare not give it to the servant of Zhennan Prince's Mansion. I only gave the candle to him when I saw the son of Zhennan Prince."

The prince of Zhennan is not good at medicine, if he didn't find out that the candle was poisonous, he thought it was given to him by a girl, and lit it at night... When he went to see Lord Yan, Xi'er didn't dare to think about the consequences.

Ming concubine nodded secretly, handling things carefully, Xue Yan asked, "Then what did the prince of Zhennan say?"

Xi'er was waiting for someone to ask, and when she told the story with joy, she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, but Ming concubine had a black line on her forehead.

Yesterday, Chu Mochen asked someone to send her a bunch of copybooks, and said what she said in the heart of a butcher. Today, she asked Xi'er to send the brocade box. Chu Mochen thought she was deliberately revenge. When he opened the brocade box , the dark guard was still afraid, and said, "Master, be careful!"

Obviously worried about what kind of poisonous insects and spiders are contained in the brocade box.

But I can see half of the candle, it's still used, I don't know why, you look at me, I look at you.

Thinking of that scene, Xi'er felt happy. She had endured so much at the time, and Ming concubine asked, holding her forehead, "And then?"

Xi'er continued, "Then, the old lady of Zhennan Wangfu sent a maid to ask the son to talk. At that time, there were other maids, and the slave did not dare to say anything. He only said that the candle was not for lighting. The son said what the girl meant. Understand."

"And then," Xueyan asked.

Well, she was asking Xi'er what reward the prince of Zhennan gave her when she made a special trip to send candles to Prince Zhennan's mansion, but Xi'er said, "Then, the prince of Zhennan went to see the old lady. , the maids and servants of Zhennan Wangfu are whispering, saying that the girl is cruel and merciless, wanting the life of their family's son, but the servants don't understand, so they went to the street to see..."

Xi'er paused, opened the roll of paper in her hand, and said, "Here, paintings like this are flying all over the street."

Poor concubine Ming is drinking tea, and seeing Xi'er holding eight or nine paintings in her hand, she spits tea all the way.

Xueyan hurried over to pat her on the back, Ming concubine raised her hand to stop her, she stretched out her hand, and Xi'er handed the painting to her.

The first one is the casual graffiti that my concubine lost yesterday, and there are two duplicates below, the others are all different, some colors are slightly different, but generally not bad, and some she has never drawn at all.

The [-] kinds of torture were given to the prince of Zhennan once.

The more you look at it, the more your eyelids twitch. Isn't this ability of imitation and creation a bit strong?

Originally, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion opposed marrying her to be happy, but now this incident happened again, which just gave those who opposed the Zhennan Prince's Mansion a chance...

At this time, a servant girl ran in from outside, stood outside the bead curtain and said, "Girl, the old lady asked you to go to Changhui Courtyard."

Ming concubine looked at the painting in her hand and suddenly felt dizzy.

Taking Xueyan with her, Concubine Ming went to Changhui Courtyard, walked around the screen, and saw Mrs. Su, the second wife and the others sitting in the room, holding a few pieces of paper in their hands.

Seeing Concubine Ming enter the room, Su's expression was reproachful, while the second wife and the others were smiling while watching the excitement. The old lady's face was somber, she raised the painting in her hand, and said in a cold voice, "You drew it?"

Ming concubine shook her head, "All my paintings are hidden in the drawer..."

The old lady grimaced, slapped the painting heavily on the small table, and said, "You dare to act!"

Ming concubine smiled wryly, not because she dared to act, but because she had no chance to deny it at all. Wei Mingyi and Xie Wanhua stood aside, and the old lady questioned her straight to the point. Obviously, they were all witnesses.

His eyes swept over the faces of Wei Mingyi and the others, and Ming concubine said calmly, "I drew this painting yesterday on a whim. The maid said you had entered my study, so I guessed that you saw the painting on the table." , Sister Yifu, I don’t think I’ve offended you, why did you cheat me like this?”

Ming concubine knows who the culprit is, but she can't see Wei Mingyi and the others gloating. Don't forget, they are all accomplices.

Wei Mingyi was anxious, "We saw the paintings on your desk, but we didn't draw these paintings!"

Ming concubine said, "Other than Xi'er and Xueyan, the only ones who have seen this painting are you and the eldest daughter of Duke Cheng's mansion. It's not you. Could it be that the eldest daughter of Duke Cheng's mansion is trying to kill me?"

The old lady frowned, "Have you seen these paintings, too?"

She asked Wei Mingyi, Wei Mingyi twisted the handkerchief and did not speak, the old lady looked at Xie Wanhua again, Xie Wanhua said, "Yesterday, the eldest cousin went to see the Ninth Prince, and the eldest daughter of Cheng Guogong's mansion wanted to see the eldest daughter." Cousin's study, we couldn't stop it, so we went in with her, who would have thought that there would be graffiti by big cousin on the desk..."

Xie Wanhua's voice became softer and weaker, because the old lady's face became more and more serious, Wei Mingyi was afraid of being punished, so he said, "Grandmother, the eldest daughter of Cheng Guogong's mansion is going to the study. We think that the eldest sister is here, so we won't stop her." I took her there. Who knew that the elder sister was so angry with the prince of Zhennan. At that time, the eldest daughter of Cheng Guogong's mansion didn't say a word after seeing it. We couldn't tell her anything. Who would have thought that she would be like this? people!"

Before Wei Mingyi finished speaking, the Fourth Wife scolded, "Don't talk nonsense! Now there is no evidence to prove that it was the eldest daughter of Cheng Guogong's mansion who made people throw the paintings all over the street. If you say that, you are ruining her girl's reputation. "

The second wife sat aside, her expression gloomy and unpredictable.

Ming concubine took the initiative to marry the prince of Zhennan, which was already intriguing. She thought she was empathizing with others, but she didn't expect that she wanted to kill the prince of Zhennan so secretly, could it be to help the fourth prince?
Wei Mingyi was humiliated by being scolded, if they had known earlier, they would not have brought anyone into the study, so they cannot be blamed for this.

But before Wei Mingrou went into the study, Ming concubine lost her temper, and after a few days, she went in again, and she didn't take her words to heart.

The fourth wife said, "Now this painting is spread all over the streets, and the Zhennan Prince's Mansion must have heard of it. Although the painting is very interesting, people with a discerning eye will know that it is the son of the Zhennan Prince."

Sitting in a wheelchair with one eye blindfolded, who else could he be if he wasn't the prince of Zhennan?

Mrs. Su looked at the painting in her hand. On it was a girl in a red wedding dress, whipping the prince of Zhennan with a whip, and he burst into tears. She wanted to say that the girl in the painting was not a concubine, but she couldn't say it. It's so worrying.

Seeing that no one was talking in the room, Ming concubine said, "Although the painting depicts me and Prince Zhennan's son, but it is full of noise all over the street, so clearly sowing dissension, King Zhennan gallops on the battlefield, using soldiers like a god, How could you not see it?"

The mansion is in a hurry, but they don't call themselves.

The old lady also knew this truth, but, "Since you want the son of Zhennan Prince to die so much, why did you choose to marry him?"
