Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 111 Cooking Oil
Ding Jiayi didn't tell the story of the attack, only said that his carriage was broken down, but it didn't arouse others' suspicion.

All the way back to Yunyuefang safe and sound, she received a secret letter from Jinse early the next morning, that Mingyue had been sent to Luo Qiguan by her, but Jinse herself did not show up, but Luo Qiguan suspected her.

Few people knew about this matter, except for Ding Jiayi who experienced that night, only those people in black knew about it.

And in the whole of Shangjing, another incident was soon rumored.

There was a murder case at Dingxiang Bo's birthday banquet!
Although Ding Xiangbo could not be blamed for this matter, but it happened at his birthday banquet, and the person who died was still a member of Ding Xiangbo's mansion, which cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

What's more, the birthday banquet was supposed to be a time of congratulations, but to encounter such a thing, everyone felt very unlucky.

Because of this incident, Ding Xiangbo's popularity in Shangjing has deteriorated a lot.

And Ding Xiangbo was ordered by the Holy Majesty to recuperate in the mansion, which made him even more depressed.

Anyone can see that the Holy Majesty did this to avoid meeting Uncle Dingxiang, lest he bring this bad luck into the palace.

For this, Ding Xiangbo had no other choice but to swallow his anger.

And just a few days after Ding Jiayi returned to Yunyuefang, she suddenly received another order from Concubine Wan.

Despite the matter of Bo Dingxiang, Concubine Wan's status in the palace has not declined.

However, this matter still made Concubine Wan feel a little anxious.

Led by the maid to come to Qinghua Palace again, Ding Jiayi noticed that no matter whether it was the little maid who did the cleaning, or the big maid who was in charge, they were all cautious and did not dare to show their air.

Obviously, Concubine Wan was in an extremely bad mood at this time.

At this time, Concubine Wan summoned Ding Jiayi, the purpose of which can be imagined.

Ding Jiayi could have refused, and she even thought of an excuse, but in the end she changed her mind.

This time the maid did not lead Ding Jiayi to the side hall last time, but to the gate of the main hall.

One foot stepped into the gate of the main hall, and before the other foot landed, there was a "clang" sound, and the emerald green jade cup fell not far in front of him.

Ding Jiayi immediately withdrew her feet and looked at the court lady suspiciously.

The palace maid had already knelt down on the ground, trembling.

Ding Jiayi looked up and saw that Concubine Wan was sitting high on the seat, with a high bun and gold hairpin ring, her face was cold and condescending.

There are other court ladies in the main hall, all of them prostrate on the ground at this moment.

"I really didn't expect that in my Qinghua Palace, there are actually traitors!"

Concubine Wan's voice was as cold as ice, and it made people feel cold in their ears.

Ding Jiayi subconsciously wanted to exit the main hall, but was stopped by a voice.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Ding will bring you here."

The maid who brought her in before suddenly spoke at this moment.

Ding Jiayi glanced at her, and sneered in his heart, the maid was obviously planning to make trouble and direct Concubine Wan's anger onto herself.

"Ding Wan pays homage to Concubine Wan, and my wife is blessed and safe."

Ding Jiayi stepped forward to salute.

The anger on Concubine Wan's face subsided a little, she casually picked up another jade cup in front of her, and said.

"Ding Wan is here, but I made you laugh."

Concubine Wan actually spoke to Ding Jiayi in an unprecedentedly friendly tone.

Ding Jiayi quickly put on a look of being flattered, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty beat the servant, how dare the servant?"

Concubine Wan chuckled, stood up, came to a court lady, and poured hot tea from the jade cup on top of her head.

The court lady was poured with boiling hot tea, but she didn't dare to speak, she could only force herself to endure the pain, biting her lip, for fear that making a sound would make the master even more unhappy.

"The tea is too cold, try the water temperature next time and bring it up."

After finishing speaking coldly, Concubine Wan let go of her hand, and the emerald cup, which was worth thousands of gold, just fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

The maid was still prostrate on the ground, not daring to raise her head.

"Clean up."

After leaving a sentence, Concubine Wan waved to another court lady, "You accompany me out."

The court lady looked surprised and hurriedly bowed down to Xie En.

It can be seen from the clothes that this court lady is just the second-class foreign envoy court lady. I didn't expect to be favored by Concubine Wan by accident today, and the surprise in her heart can be imagined.

Ding Jiayi, on the other hand, glanced at her with some pity, took a step back, and got out of the way.

Concubine Wan smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said to Ding Jiayi: "Then I heard that you were also present at the elder brother's birthday banquet in Japan. Come and tell me what happened that day."

Ding Jiayi's heart was awe-inspiring, she had already guessed that Concubine Wan called her here for this matter.

However, logically speaking, Concubine Wan should have known all the details of that day from Uncle Dingxiang and others, but why did she call herself to ask again?
Thinking this way in his heart, Ding Jiayi didn't dare to be negligent on the surface, and then he took a step forward and respectfully said: "Your Majesty has an order, so don't dare to disobey."

Concubine Wan supported the palace maid, she walked slowly towards the outside of the palace with a graceful figure.

Ding Jiayi also hurriedly followed, but just as she stepped out of the main hall, she just heard Concubine Wan in front softly whispering to an eunuch beside her.

"Let's deal with the people inside! I don't want to see them again."

The eunuch immediately understood, and with a wave of his hand, several strong and powerful women came out and walked into the hall.

Ding Jiayi didn't need to guess to know that those maids in the palace might not be able to survive tonight.

Although he felt pity for those people, Ding Jiayi didn't say anything, and silently followed behind Concubine Wan.

When I came to the side hall last time, compared with the Su Leng main hall, this side hall is much softer, but the decoration and furniture are not bad at all.

Concubine Wan leaned casually on the imperial concubine chair, took a sip of hot tea from a court lady, looked up and saw Ding Jiayi still standing respectfully aside, she couldn't help laughing.

"You don't have to be polite when you come to this palace, come and give me a seat."

Immediately afterwards, a court lady brought hot tea, snacks, fruits and other items, all of which were exquisite and exquisite, as if they were exquisitely crafted.

However, Ding Jiayi had no appetite. She obviously noticed that the maids who came to see Qinghua Palace this time had many new faces compared to last time.I don't know if those people were not there, or because they offended Concubine Wan, they were dealt with.

I don't know how many people die silently in the palace every day. Those maids, eunuchs, even female officials, in the eyes of those in power, are not even as good as human beings.

With a chill in his heart, Ding Jiayi's expression couldn't help but flicker.

But at this time, Concubine Wan said: "I heard from my elder brother that I offended you Ding Wan last time in Yuanshu Garden, and I will apologize to you Ding Wan on my elder brother's behalf."

Say it, Concubine Wan suddenly stretched out her hand and clapped her hands.

After the crisp applause, eight court ladies suddenly filed in, each holding a wooden box in their hands.

The wooden box is made of the rarest and most expensive purple sandalwood, exuding a faint fragrance. The eight court ladies are all beautiful in appearance, but they are only fifteen or sixteen years old, and they stand in a row with lowered eyebrows, showing extreme respect.

"These are all apologies prepared by me, Ding Wan, don't be disgusted!"

Ding Jiayi was really flattered this time, and immediately got up from the chair and fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, isn't this a shameful servant? How can a servant deserve to be treated like a concubine? On the day of Ding Xiangbo, if Lord Luo hadn't searched for it, how could it be easily solved? It's just that Lord Luo was suspicious of the servant at the time. I have to say those things for self-preservation, I didn't mean to offend Xiangbo..."

Ding Jiayi was terrified, and the words poured out like a cannonball, and her pretty face turned pale.

Concubine Wan's smile grew stronger, she motioned to the maid beside her to help her up, and said softly.

"Don't worry, I don't have any other intentions. These gifts are indeed for you, so you can take them! There are also these eight maids, who can be regarded as the carefully selected talents in Qinghua Palace. and gave it to you."

Ding Jiayi managed to hold back the surprise in his heart, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the eight court ladies.

These court ladies seem to have known it a long time ago, their faces were calm and there was no trace of disturbance.

But the more this happened, the more vigilant Ding Jiayi became.

She has studied Concubine Wan, this woman is cruel and merciless, and she will take revenge, she offended Uncle Ding Xiang in public that day, how could she let herself go so easily?

These so-called apologies are nothing more than cooking oil in a raging fire. I want to put myself on the fire!
With a sneer in his heart, a stern light flashed in the depths of Ding Jiayi's eyes, which no one noticed.
