Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 337 Framed
Just as Liu Nianxia was recovering, he received a message from the palace and was about to get up and enter the palace immediately.Xia Zijin watched the excitement from the sidelines. The father-in-law who came to pass the decree was already the deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at a young age. The Emperor attaches great importance to Liu Nianxia, ​​Princess Mingyue.

Xin'er listened to the steward's report, her mouth puffed up angrily, waiting for the people in the palace to leave, she threw the embroidery pattern in her hand on the table, seeing that Xia Zijin still seemed to have heard nothing Yes, she concentrated on embroidering the handkerchief, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up, "Princess, when is it? Why are you not in a hurry?"

Xia Zijin raised her eyelids and looked at her, "My princess is in a hurry. What can I do if my father wants to see her? I can't stop my father from seeing her savior."

Xin'er was silenced by her words, on the other end Liu Nianxia received a message from the palace, immediately packed up her appearance, boarded the sedan chair and drove to the palace.Seeing her excited and bewildered look, Huamei couldn't help but glanced at her lips. She was sent by Xia Zijin to serve this one. In favor of Xia Zijin.

Xiao Xiazi was at the entrance of the imperial study room, and saw Liu Nianxia's sedan chair from a distance, hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, saluted, and then the person who carried the sedan chair put down his steps and drove him away. Taking the palm she offered, he helped her walk in.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw a square table, on the left was a solid wood painted bookshelf, followed by a beaded curtain, Liu Nianxia looked in, and before he could see clearly, he saw a bright The yellow figure quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake in a series of voices, "The girl didn't see the emperor just now, please forgive me."

Ming Shengdi looked at her with great interest, and there was interest in his eyes.Liu Nianxia's expression when he came in was like the curiosity of a peasant woman entering the Grand View Garden. She didn't know how to salute until she saw him. This kind of behavior dispelled some of the doubts in your heart.

Just when Emperor Ming Sheng was about to speak, Liu Nianxia suddenly raised his head in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, there is something I want to ask the Emperor if you have seen it."

Liu Nianxia rubbed the corners of her clothes, raised her head, and looked at Ming Shengdi.Ming Shengdi was amused by her expression, and leaned back on the chair lazily, "What is it?"

"I don't know if the emperor has seen the jade pendant that the civilian girl was carrying with her before?" Liu Nianxia took a deep breath before speaking as if she had made up her mind.

Ming Shengdi was startled, then raised the corners of his lips, put his palm into his cuff, and took out a fish-shaped jade pendant that had obviously been worn round, "But this one?"

Immediately joy appeared on Liu Nianxia's face, and he nodded in various ways.Ming Shengdi looked at her for a long while, but did not see any signs of acting, his heart trembled, the corners of his mouth twitched, his expression became slightly unnatural, and he stared at her with deep eyes.

Watching Xiao Xiazi take the jade pendant from him and hand it to Liu Nianxia, ​​Ming Shengdi pursed his lips and took a deep breath, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"

In the son-in-law's mansion, Xia Shengqing hurried back when she learned that Liu Nianxia had been called into the palace, ran all the way into the yard, opened the door, and saw Xia Zijin lying lazily on the beauty's couch, with one hand resting on her forehead, the other Flipping through the book with one hand, Xin'er stood behind her fanning with a round fan. The scene was really indescribable.

Xia Shengqing's imagined scene of Xia Zijin's depressed mood seems to be non-existent.He froze in place for a moment, moved his mouth, stretched out his hand again, and approached Xia Zijin step by step, with a very shallow smile on the corner of his lips, "Zijin."

Only then did Xia Zijin raise her head, with the same faint smile on her face, as if her heart, which had been hit by Liu Nianxia's identical face to hers, had returned to normal.But the fingernails on her forehead were deeply cut into the palm of her hand.

And Xia Qin knew that the strategy had succeeded when he learned that Liu Nianxia was named Princess Mingyue.Since Xia Zijin didn't want to stand on his side, she couldn't blame him for being cruel.This Liu Nianxia was someone he had worked so hard to find, even in order to fake her past life, he even brought her into the palace and handed her over to Yue Jing'an to train for a long time before letting her come out to meet Emperor Ming.

Looking at it now, it is indeed quite effective. Qing Heyuan looked at him leaning on the brocade couch, with a smile on his face, and a sneer in his heart. In order to prevent people from finding out Liu Nianxia's past, Xia Qin worked hard from the experience of her birth. So she started to forge, and even let her learn the living habits of Concubine Liu before she was alive.

But that's what made him feel uneasy.The little master and the master are obviously at odds, otherwise, how could Yue Jing'an tell him not to tell Xia Shengqing about this matter this time, but this is not without reason, after all, what the master is going to deal with is the young master's wife.

Qing Heyuan sighed secretly, then raised his head suddenly, looked at Xia Qin, and reminded: "His Royal Highness, although Liu Nianxia's identity has not been exposed yet, according to the news from the palace, the emperor is still doubting her identity." Authenticity, but in the final analysis, I just don't want to admit that I found the wrong person before. I'm afraid that even if the emperor really believes that Xia Zijin is not Concubine Liu's orphan, he will not do anything to her. At most, he will withdraw the reward. "

Ming Shengdi is suspicious and arrogant, so naturally he will not tell the world, so that the people in the world will laugh at him for admitting his own daughter.

Xia Tian listened to his words, his eyes narrowed a little bit, and there was a venomous snake-like light inside, "As long as the father no longer protects her, then the prince will naturally have a way to deal with her." The humiliation Xia Zijin gave him before, he Revenge bit by bit.

Seeing him pretending to be crazy, the Qingheyuan people secretly sighed and stopped talking.

Liu Nianxia answered Ming Shengdi's questions one by one according to what Yue Jing'an taught her before. In the end, Ming Shengdi almost believed that she was the child left by Concubine Liu before her death. Otherwise, how could the two have so many similarities? place.

However, if the person in front of him is Concubine Liu's child, then what happened to Xia Zijin?

Seeing Xiao Xiazi sending Liu Nianxia away, Ming Shengdi narrowed his eyes, put one hand on his cheek, thoughtfully, and put the other hand on the table, knocking intentionally or unintentionally.

Xiao Xiazi turned around and saw Ming Shengdi's upset expression, silently swallowed the words in his mouth and stood aside to wait.

When Liu Nianxia was going out, she happened to meet Yue Jingan coming over with soup, she subconsciously raised her head, and saw Yue Jingan's gentle face.The court lady who sent her out hurriedly saluted, Liu Nianxia came back to her senses, bowed her head and saluted, her palms in her sleeves trembling slightly.

Yue Jing'an smiled and nodded, a dark light flashed in her deep pupils, she quickly looked away, and walked into the imperial study.

And all of this, Xia Zijin didn't realize it at all.It's just that she sent someone to Liu's mansion to hand over a greeting card, saying that she would visit Mrs. Liu the next day.Mrs. Liu has not seen Liu Nianxia's face yet, she only vaguely knows that she saved Ming Shengdi, and she looks somewhat similar to Xia Zijin.

However, on the second day, Xia Zijin led Liu Nianxia to Liu's Mansion. The smile on Mrs. Liu's face froze as soon as she entered the door. For the first time, her always kind face showed an expression of disbelief. Xia Zijin was different from the maid serving Liu Nianxia, ​​I'm afraid she couldn't help admitting her mistake.

"This...what the hell is going on here?" Mrs. Liu felt as if something was "buzzing" in her head, and her vision was blurred, and she couldn't see clearly for a while. people's faces.

The nanny behind her noticed Mrs. Liu's trembling body, sighed secretly, reached her back with her palm, and gently supported her.Mrs. Liu suddenly came back to her senses, and saw Xia Zijin looking at her worriedly.

What is different from the past is that when Xia Zijin came to Liu's Mansion before, the expression in her pupils was clear and firm, as if there was nothing in this world that could hinder her.However, Mrs. Liu's throat twitched, and she almost couldn't bear to look at Xia Zijin in pain.Just because the eyes that were full of brilliance in the past were covered with a very light haze at some point, just looking at it makes one's heart break.

"Grandmother." Xia Zijin knew when she saw Mrs. Liu's shocked expression that this Liu Nianxia was indeed a threat.

She put her mind away, and called out tentatively, the shock on Mrs. Liu's face dissipated, and she showed an amiable smile at her.

During the whole visit, Liu Nianxia's performance was no different from that of being a guest at someone's house for the first time, but Mrs. Liu became more and more frightened the more she watched.When Xia Zijin got up to say goodbye, her eyes were already glued to Liu Nianxia.

Waiting for Xia Zijin to leave, the nanny who had been standing by the side couldn't help but say, "Old lady, that Princess Mingyue is really..."

She was so similar to Concubine Liu. Thinking of Mrs. Liu, she almost thought that her dead daughter had appeared in front of her alive again.Although she didn't say what she said later, Mrs. Liu already knew it.Thinking of the jade pendant that Liu Nianxia had exposed unintentionally before, Mrs. Liu's slightly muddy pupils involuntarily showed condensed light.

Xia Zijin returned to the mansion, watched Liu Nianxia bid farewell to her, thought about walking to the Hunan Embroidery Academy, and unconsciously clenched the palms covered in the sleeves, as if to suppress the hideous thoughts in his heart.

The fact that they went to visit Mrs. Liu was naturally not hidden from Ming Shengdi, and Ming Shengdi almost didn't even hesitate, so he went to the palace to see Mrs. Liu.According to his thinking, Mrs. Liu should be able to recognize her own granddaughter.

The secret guard he sent to investigate has sent a message that Concubine Liu did indeed have only one child back then.Then, between Xia Zijin and Liu Nianxia, ​​one of them must be a fake.

……

After Yue Jing'an learned that Xia Zijin had brought Liu Nianxia to the Liu Mansion, she immediately sent someone to the Liu Mansion to keep an eye on it.At this moment, she was leaning on the chair, with one hand resting on her lower abdomen and the other covering her chest. The nanny passed the spittoon in front of her. Yue Jingan retched for a long time before listening to the servant girl coming in to report that someone was asking to see her.

The nanny immediately put away the spittoon and helped her to sit up. Yue Jing'an took out a handkerchief and wiped off the fine stains on the corners of her lips. She leaned on the armrest and ordered the maid to bring her in.

The person who came was naturally a member of Kunsha's organization, but he was actually wearing a bodyguard uniform, and he was the one lurking in the palace following Yue Jing'an's orders, and this time the news was also passed on to Yue Jing'an.In this way, even if others notice him as a small guard, they will not suspect anything.

"What's the expression on Mrs. Liu's face?" As long as the people in Liu's mansion can be deceived, no one can shake Liu Nianxia's position.The time for Xia Zijin's death is coming.Violence flashed across Yue Jing'an's beautiful long and narrow eyes, and she stroked the ice-patterned porcelain cup with her well-manicured nails, waiting for someone's answer.

The visitor saluted respectfully, then raised his head again, "Reporting to Master, Mrs. Liu already has doubts in her heart. As long as there is a little more time, everyone will definitely think that Miss Liu is the daughter of the Dog Emperor. At that time, Princess Mingzhu It's the fish on the cutting board of the empress."

Hearing what he said, Yue Jing'an raised the corners of her lips a little bit, showing a smug smile, and waved her to back off.After a while, Yue Jing'an stood up and opened her arms. Seeing this, the maid in the room immediately came forward to change her clothes.

The nanny suddenly showed an unbearable expression, her gaze involuntarily glanced at Yue Jing'an's flat belly, "Your Majesty..."

As soon as Yue Jing'an turned her head, she met her expression, her heart trembled, and a trace of bitterness overflowed from the corner of her lips, but in the next second, her eyes became firm, "Nurse, I'm going to the Queen's Palace in a while, don't be messed up." measure."

Mammy sighed inwardly, then lowered her head.

Yue Jing'an here was happy that things were going well, while Xia Qixuan on the other side couldn't sit still when he learned that Ming Shengdi had named Princess Mingyue.After finally hearing that Liu Nianxia was in better health, he immediately sent Ah Wei and Xiaokui to visit Xia Zijin at the son-in-law's mansion.

Xiaokui was worried, so naturally she had no reason to refuse, so she immediately asked someone to prepare a sedan chair, and went all the way to the son-in-law's mansion.Xia Zijin was sitting in the room eating nectar, when she heard Xiaokui coming, she couldn't help being taken aback, before she could speak, she heard the butler say that Huang Chenyan was visiting.

The two came together and came in such a hurry, even if they are fools, they also know that they came here in a hurry because they were worried.Xia Zijin hurriedly put down the small bowl in his hand, cleaned his hands, changed his clothes, and hurried to the Xiaohua Pavilion.

Huang Chenyan saw a figure running towards him from a distance, stood up immediately, and took a few steps forward quickly.Xiaokui reacted slowly, and when she came back to her senses, Xia Zijin had already walked in front of her, and she subconsciously stood up to salute, but Xia Zijin grabbed her arm, "Why are you here at this time?"

Xiaokui raised her head, carefully looked at the expression on Xia Zijin's face, and confirmed that she was not in the slightest of sorrow. It was as if a hole had been opened in her heart, and it was filled with sea water, so sore, she followed Xia Zijin's side For the longest time, he naturally knew that with Xia Zijin's temperament, even if it hurts his heart, he would not show the slightest disgrace on his face.

That's what made her feel so distressed, Xiaokui burst into tears as her nose sore, "Princess, how can the emperor..."

Seeing her mentioning this, Xia Zijin's eyes darkened, and he tried to persuade her with the way he had persuaded Xin'er before.Huang Chenyan really couldn't bear to watch her from the sidelines, pulled her aside, suppressed his anger and said: "I heard that the emperor suspects that you are not Concubine Liu's daughter, but is it true?"

"What does Chen Yan think?" Xia Zijin was taken aback, the smile on his cheeks blurred, his eyelids lowered, his long eyelashes trembling uncontrollably, as if he had a thousand words to say.Huang Chenyan couldn't read her expression clearly, nor could she guess her emotions, but her rhetorical question made her very angry.

Immediately, Huang Chenyan let go of her palm, took a step back, and smiled coldly, "Xia Zijin, I thought you were different from others, but now it seems that's all there is to it. What do you think of me? Why do you want to be like this?" Test me?"

Xia Zijin's question was indeed intended to be tentative, but she did not expect Huang Chenyan to have such a big reaction. She was at a loss for a moment, and when she raised her head, her crystal eyes seemed to be covered with mist .

Seeing her like this, Huang Chenyan suddenly softened his heart, sighed helplessly, and softened his tone, "Whether you are a princess or not, in my eyes, no one is more suitable than you to be the Princess of Pearl. What's more, even if you If you don't want to be this princess in the future, don't you still have me, as long as you are willing to come to my Jingwu Mansion, can I still support you?"

What she said was really ambiguous, Xin'er on the side was dumbfounded when she heard it, her ears turned red, she just felt that this young lady from Jingwuhou's Mansion was indeed different.Xia Zijin was stunned for a moment, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile, "Thank you, Chenyan."

As soon as Huang Chenyan was about to speak, Xia Zijin interrupted her, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry. My identity, my father will definitely investigate clearly. At that time, the truth will not be fake, and the fake will not be true. There will be a result."

Compared to the peace of the Prince Consort's Mansion, the Queen's Palace can be described as a disaster.

The queen stood on the steps and looked at Yue Jing'an who was kneeling on the red carpet, with a ruthless look on her brows. She thought that Yue Jing'an, a bitch, would never turn over in her life, but she didn't expect her to be pregnant. exasperating.

It's just Ming Shengdi's age and body... Suspicion flashed in the Queen's eyes, and she felt more and more strange about Yue Jing'an's pregnancy.Kneeling with Yue Jing'an, the nanny couldn't help but look up at the queen, and shouted dissatisfied, "Empress, even though you don't like my mother, but my mother is pregnant with a dragon seed, if something happens , the empress can take care of it."

The queen was in a trance, when she heard this, she immediately flew into a rage, and Yu Ruyi, who was wearing a gold-plated armor, clenched her fingers tightly, her eyes flashed sharply, and the maid who was serving at the side immediately shouted coldly, " How dare you, a slave, dare to talk to the Empress like this. Come here, drag her down and slap her."

Immediately, a guard stepped forward, and Yue Jing'an showed a panicked expression on her face, she threw herself down in front of the nanny, protecting her tightly, and two lines of tears flowed down her mournful face, She couldn't help turning her head back, "Empress Empress, Mammy, she is also worried about the health of my concubine and asks Empress Empress to forgive me..."

"Ah..." After finishing speaking, a guard bumped into Yue Jing'an somehow, she immediately screamed, lying on the ground as if being pushed out, clutching her stomach, moaning non-stop.

Just as the queen was about to sneer, she saw the blood spilling from between her legs, and the faint smell of blood followed.The queen's brain suddenly exploded with a "buzz", and she hurriedly sent someone to find the imperial doctor, her eyes were fixed on the blood on her skirt and she couldn't move away, she just felt a burst of chill hit her heart.

She knew how much Ming Shengdi liked this child. For this evil, he even pardoned Yue Jing'an, released her from the cold palace, and even believed Yue Jing'an's stupid excuses.If Yue Jing'an lost her flesh and blood with her, the Queen's brows would be filled with anxiety, and her eyes would move up little by little, and fall on Yue Jing'an's face.

Immediately afterwards, the Queen's pupils suddenly constricted, because although Yue Jing'an's complexion was pale from the pain, beads of sweat were even oozing from her forehead, and her face was ugly, but there was indeed sarcasm in her eyes.In an instant, the queen knew what was going on.

This is a frame, a naked frame, but she has no way to refute it, and even fell into the trap.The queen was like being in an ice cellar, her mind was in a mess, and she always felt that a bunch of things were entwined and wrapped together, entangled her heart, and made her breathless.

The palace servants in the hall hurried to help Yue Jing'an get up, and helped her to rest in the inner room. The nun beside Yue Jing'an disappeared at some point. When the queen came back to her senses, she found that she had disappeared. As soon as it changed, her mouth trembled, "Where is the nanny who is serving by Concubine Lian's side?"

Only then did the grand lady notice this, and she immediately thought of something, with a frightened expression on her face.However, before she could speak, Ming Shengdi's angry voice sounded from outside the hall, "Queen, you have disappointed me so much."

And the nanny who disappeared before is now following Ming Shengdi Shenhou with her head down.As soon as Xiao Xiazi entered the hall, he smelled a very faint smell of blood, and couldn't help but change his face slightly.Ming Shengdi also noticed the blood-stained red carpet on the ground that had not been disposed of in time, and he clenched his fists, and his sharp gaze fell straight on the empress, "Where is Concubine Lian?"

His attitude like asking a crime made the queen's heart tremble, and she subconsciously clenched her hands into fists on her chest. She and Ming Shengdi are young couples, but they have grown closer in recent years. I didn't expect him to be in front of the servants now. She didn't care about preserving her dignity.Thinking of the culprit who caused the current state, the queen couldn't help gritting her teeth, and a stern look involuntarily flashed across her long and narrow phoenix eyes.

After a while, she adjusted her mood, twirled her handkerchief and walked up to Ming Shengdi, bowed gracefully, and cried, "Your Majesty, you can count yourself here, my concubine...the concubine is guilty of failing to take good care of sister Yue, so I can't help you." made her shed so much blood."

Ming Shengdi looked at her red eyes, and his hardened heart softened involuntarily.

At this time, Zhang Yuanshou hurried over, and Ming Shengdi immediately forgot what he wanted to say to the queen, and turned to look at Zhang Yuanshou, "Go and see, if something happens to Concubine Lian, I will not forgive you." you."

Zhang Yuanshou didn't know what was going on before he came here, and now he looked at Ming Shengdi's expression.
