Chapter 151: Ling promised "God assists"
Lu Pheasant glanced at Concubine De.
Among the four concubines, Concubine Hui was in the upper position, and Concubine Yi, Concubine De, and Concubine Rong ate at separate tables, one on the left and the other on the right.
Except for Concubine De, who remained as calm as ever, the other three people all had expressions on their faces as if they were watching a show.
Concubine Min was able to take charge of the Chengqian Palace, and she naturally had the help of her concubine Wu Ya.
But whether she can take it and live there for a long time depends on her own abilities.
It was right for Concubine De not to come forward at this time.
Even the other three concubines remained motionless.
"Min Bin, look at this...it's not easy for us to judge just by listening to the words of the person involved." Little Tong Jia apologized, "Concubine Chu Xiu, why don't we ask that eunuch Su La to come over and explain this matter Let’s talk together.”
Min Bin's face naturally looked ugly.
As the concubine Wang watched, Ling promised to stand up suddenly with a strange look on her face: "Your Majesty, I just saw two palace servants tugging at each other in the back room. I wonder if it could be..."
You Ling agreed to such a "magic assist", but Min Bin didn't want her personal maid to come out, but she couldn't. She tried hard to maintain her posture and said as calmly as possible: "Coral, let Ding Xiang come over."
Soon, Coral was followed by a palace maid in green and a eunuch in civilian clothes.
The two of them came with panic on their faces: "Slave, I'm here to greet you ladies and gentlemen."
Min Bin: "Ling agreed, what you saw just now, are these two palace ladies?"
Ling promised to stand on one side and said, "Returning to Concubine Min, I only saw their backs just now. Based on their clothes and stature, there is no doubt that it is the two of them."
Hesheli also asked: "Aunt Jia, look, is this the Sulla eunuch who wants to accept you as his godmother?"
Aunt Jia: "If I tell you, it's him. There is a black mole behind the ear and many on the back of the neck. I will definitely not admit it. Little Yizi, do you have a handkerchief with small yellow flowers embroidered on it?"
When Lu Zhi heard this, he asked such a leading question. It was obvious that this was a trap set in advance.
Xiao Yizi had always worked as a handyman behind the Fifth Ganxi Institute, and rarely had the opportunity to meet so many noble people. He was nervous for a moment and stuttered: "...Yes."
"Did you call me godmother and you almost gave me the veil?"
Xiao Yizi noticed something was wrong at this time, glanced at Ding Xiang anxiously, and opened his mouth: "I... no, not..."
This hesitant look caught the attention of everyone, and the way he looked at the palace maid in green caused a lot of discussion in the audience: "Eunuch Sura is really unworthy of the stage, he can't even answer a question."
"Now that Empress Min is in charge of Chengqian Palace, why do we still let such people clean the courtyard?"
"It seems that the palace maid next to her is really involved with someone, otherwise we would never be able to see the face of this little eunuch."
…
The lower-ranking concubines were full of ridicule.
The concubine Wang threw her cup on the table with a loud sound.
The others looked at her face, and then they looked calm.
Little Tong Jia asked aloud: "This little palace maid, were you the one who embroidered the lace patterns on your mother-in-law's sleeves?"
Ding Xiang raised her head and glanced: "In reply to Empress Tong Jia, yes."
"Aunt Jia has seen the same pattern on Xiao Yizi's hand. Do you think it is also your workmanship?
Ding Xiang lowered her head and said, "I have never seen what I said to Tong Jia, and I don't know."
"You..." Hesheli became angry, turned to the host and said, "Concubine Hui, it seems that this cunning servant is unwilling to admit it unless she can find evidence."
Concubine Rong said: "It's a good housewarming party, why bother to ruin the mood of the big guys just because of these two little characters. I just want to ask, when can't I be detained for a day? Min Bin, I remember that you brewed a lot of plums last year. Wine, why are you not willing to take it out for us to try?"
Concubine Yi covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Concubine Rong's thirst for wine has not changed. Concubine Hui, when did you not have the final say in the East Sixth Palace?"
On Concubine Hui's square face, her chin tightened and the lines became harder.
Mrs. Guo Luoluo really didn't think it was a big deal. She just wanted to make the decision. Searching the palace was no small matter. She glanced at Concubine Yi and said, "Come here, search Xiao Yizi's body."
Little Tong Jia thought to herself that Concubine Hui Nala was really smart. If forced in front of her like this, she could calmly jump out of the trap set up.
It doesn't matter if they search the body, but if they search Tatan (the eunuch dormitory in the Qing Dynasty) on a large scale, it will definitely alarm the imperial city, and they may even ask the emperor to teach him a lesson.
Soon, the eunuchs took out a white handkerchief from Xiao Yizi. The flowers embroidered on it were exactly the same as the cuffs of Minbin Zhangjia.
Everyone craned their necks to look.
Hesheli and Aunt Jia looked at each other.
Little Tong Jia took a look first and said hurriedly: "Oh, Concubine Chu Xiu, I really misunderstood you."
Little Yizi, who was grabbed by the eunuchs and lying on the ground, cried in a pleading voice: "That was picked up by a slave..."
Aunt Jia stepped forward: "Look at you, you actually want to accept this old slave as your godmother. Aunt Dingxiang, Xiao Yizi said she picked this up, what do you think?"
Ding Xiang raised her head and glanced: "Ladies and gentlemen, this square handkerchief is indeed made by Ding Xiang."
Min Bin Zhangjia pressed down on Coral's arm until she stood firm.
"But, there is no doubt that Xiao Yizi picked it up." Ding Xiang's calm voice came.
Minbin made up her mind again.
Aunt Jia: "Aunt Dingxiang means that you and Xiao Yizi are strangers to each other? Then why did Ling agree to see you two pulling at the other side of the room just now? What's your explanation?"
Ding Xiang half stood up and seemed to glance at Ling Yasheng. After passing her, she kowtowed three times to Min Bin: "Ms. Min Bin, I am ashamed of my love for you. I do know Xiao Yizi."
Concubine Min's body swayed slightly amidst the strong sound of kowtow.
Lu Pheasant saw Empress Dowager De's eyebrows frowning slightly.
After being signaled by Concubine Hui, Ling agreed to return to her seat and looked at the other low-ranking concubines. The look on her face said that she was not lying and that she had done a very just thing today.
There was Chang on the side picking up food for her.
The concubine Wang's hand holding the chopsticks couldn't help but twist.
Ling promised that his upper and lower lips, which were originally eating, were mixed and smacked.
The concubine Wang smiled softly: "I'm sorry, my stomach moved just now. I promise, it's okay for you, right?"
Ling promised to be angry.
Look at the concubine Wang's arrogance, as if she is the only one in the palace who can compete with her.
When she also has a dragon seed, she wants to see how proud the concubine Wang is.
Ling promised through gritted teeth: "I'm fine."
For now, watching the show is more important.
Grandma Jia looked ecstatic: "Aunt Dingxiang, are you admitting it? Are you and Xiao Yizi a match?"
Ding Xiang's forehead was bloodshot. She looked squarely at the ferocious old face in front of her. Her face was calm and she said word by word: "This slave and Xiao Yizi met before entering the palace. No one has ever accused the palace maids and eunuchs of food violations."
