Slave Girl Becomes The Queen

She was flustered to pick up the brush, but found a pile of copied scriptures neatly placed in front of her. She remembers that she didn't copy so much last night?

She took it up and counted it. It was just a hundred, not much more! Someone must have copied it for her after she fell asleep. Who would it be? She was puzzled.

Seeing that the sacrificial time was coming, she quickly arranged the things. She would dare to go to the new altar and call these things a princess. At this time, she suddenly found a piece of embroidery that burned yesterday.

She picked it up and was suddenly attracted by a smell. What does it smell like? She sniffed it carefully and immediately recognized it as white phosphorus.

How can there be white phosphorus on this hundred flower embroidery? And the taste is very pungent. It should be put a lot. No wonder she smelled a pungent smell yesterday, which has always been the smell of white phosphorus. However, who would sprinkle white phosphorus on such precious embroidery? The sacrificial platform was full of incense, and it would catch fire if you were not careful. She was even more confused. It seems that the fire yesterday was deliberately designed and arranged.

At this time, a monk came in: "female benefactor, Princess drink, the general asked me to invite you over, the sacrifice will start soon!"

Ah Jiao couldn't think so much. She picked up the mahogany box and copied the Scriptures and went with the monk.

She entered the main hall of Jingyin temple, and the sacrifice was more grand than yesterday. She went over, "maid, see the princess, see the general, see the second childe!" She saluted one by one.

Chu Jiang was anxious to see if she could take out the embroidery she could replace, so she asked, "Ah Jiao, are you ready?"

Jiao nodded: "princess, I have already embroidered another piece of embroidery to replace the hundred flowers embroidery today. It's in this mahogany box."

"Then take it out and have a look."

We are all looking forward to what kind of magnificent work she can produce, but what she takes out of the box is only a piece of embroidery about one meter in size.

"This is what you call a substitute?" Chu Jiangxin took it to her hand and looked at it carefully. There was only one chrysanthemum on the embroidery. Where did it come from? This is a big gap. She secretly smiles in her heart. Ah Jiao is afraid that it is difficult to escape this difficulty.

"Exactly Jiao replied, incomparably calm.

"Ah Jiao, I know you want to make up for your fault, but I can't use such a thin work as my mother's sacrificial articles."

After listening to this explanation, a Jiao said, "princess, please listen to the maid explain the reason why she made this embroidery. If you still feel that it is not appropriate after listening to this, it is not too late for you to punish the maid again!"

"Good! Tell me about it She would like to see how she talked about such an ordinary chrysanthemum.

"I made this chrysanthemum because, first of all, it was comparable to the hundred flowers that was burned yesterday. Just imagine, one night to make a hundred flowers, not to mention me alone, even a hundred people can only be barely able to do it, but it may not be as good as the burnt hundred flowers. So I thought, what kind of flower can be used as a hundred flowers? So I naturally think of chrysanthemum, not because of her beauty, but because of Chrysanthemum's temperament, and has been immortal to coincide with the Empress Dowager. Niang has always been praised as light as chrysanthemum, not because her name has a chrysanthemum word, but because of her unique personality charm, which makes her mother in the world, and her reputation has also spread to this day, no one can surpass her. As a saying goes: when autumn comes to September 8, I will kill all flowers after blooming. It can't be more appropriate to describe a lady. Secondly, chrysanthemum is originally used to worship and remember the ancestors. It is also appropriate to use it here. I chose the white marigold as the noble chrysanthemum among the chrysanthemums. I hope that the Empress Dowager will live forever even in another place. That's why I boldly embroidered this world-old and independent marigold. Even if there is only one, it has the momentum of thousands of low pressure branches. I wonder if the princess is satisfied? " Ah Jiao talks about all kinds of reasons.

Chu Jiangxin was speechless by this speech. She didn't know that her mother and concubine loved chrysanthemums alone before she died. She also planted a variety of chrysanthemum varieties in her garden. Even when his father was alive, he also called his mother "Ju'er". We can imagine how much she loved chrysanthemum. It's just that she almost forgot all these years. She embroidered a hundred flowers, that chrysanthemum is also small and pitiful. She suddenly felt that she did not have a maidservant who had never known her mother's concubine. She was more or less surprised, but more afraid. This Jiao, far more intelligent than she imagined. It never occurred to her.

People around her nodded in agreement. If she denied it again, it would not be too deliberate. So she could only say, "Ah Jiao's Marigold is really one hundred, which can be used as a sacrifice for her mother's concubine. Ah Jiao, you are really beautiful and blue hearted. Thanks to your idea of such a good method, you can remedy it in time. "

Ah Jiao quickly thanks for her kindness: "thank you for your adoption. I just want to do my best to make up for my mistakes Although the fault may not be caused by itself, it may be intentional. However, this is not important now. It is the most important for her to survive the disaster and let the sacrifice end smoothly. To the person behind it, she will try to find out.

This time, the sacrifice ended smoothly. Ah Jiao breathed a sigh of relief, Xue Beiwang suddenly whispered behind her: "I can't see that you are really not an ordinary woman. You are so smart and witty. I'm really impressed. But it may be a blessing or a curse. " He knew the trick, but he didn't tell the story. Finish to her mysteriously smile away.Is it him? He's been weird ever since he showed up with her. But what reason does he have to destroy this sacrifice? You want to plant yourself? Is it because he and Xue chengkai didn't mean to do it? But she knew that if Xue chengkai was not to blame, he would also be implicated, and could not be alone? If you only deal with yourself in the future, it is impossible!

She couldn't think of it. She frowned and didn't notice that Xue chengkai was looking at her expression with interest at the moment. He came up and said, "what are you thinking? So absorbed? "

"I" She couldn't tell him what she knew, so she said, "it's nothing. It's just a fluke. I can't believe it."
