Concubine Xiao on the chaise longue, with a red-lipped smile, overflowed with a mysterious deep meaning.
When Ji Yunshu was about to salute, Concubine Xiao raised her hand lightly.
"No need, this palace invites Mr. Ji to enter the palace, you are the honored guest of this palace."
"The grass-roots have a humble life, and they can't afford a noble character."
Concubine Xiao didn't say a word, the pair of jade hands lifted gently, and she glanced at the chair next to her.
"Sir, please take a seat."
"Thank you madam."
Ji Yun slowly walked to the side and sat down, with a respectful expression on his face, but his heart was very cold.
The corners of Concubine Xiao's lips twitched, looking at Ji Yunshu, and asked, "Mr. Ji is a smart person, since he was able to take advantage of the disappearance case that day, and let the emperor agree to open the coffin in the case of Duke Yuguo, I admire it very much, since you are so smart. , Presumably, you also know the reason why this palace called you into the palace today?"
It's an asshole!
The speech did not cut corners.
For her words, Ji Yunshu only spoke lightly.
"The goddess has the heart to call, even though it has other intentions, the grass-roots people don't dare to make guesses."
"It's okay, you just have to guess."
"What is Niangniang's intention, the grass people really dare not make guesses, and I hope Niangniang will make it clear."
Since Concubine Xiao was sloppy with herself, an eye for an eye, she would still do it.
Because she knew very well that if she guessed correctly, she would have to follow the path that Concubine Xiao led and had to help her. If she guessed wrong, she would appear to be doing it on purpose, obviously saying that she would not stand on Concubine Xiao's side. The faction, then, is equivalent to becoming the target of her hunting!
Either way, it's a dead end!
Better not guess!
Concubine Xiao is a smart person, knowing that Ji Yunshu had seen through his little trick, she simply smiled.
"Forget it, since Mr. doesn't guess, I'm not in a dilemma. In fact, I just wanted to ask about the disappearance case when I invited you to enter the palace."
lie!
Ji Yunshu did not expose her, and answered honestly, "Don't hide it from the mother, there is no progress on the disappearance case for the time being."
"No?" Concubine Xiao secretly snickered for a while, then raised her eyebrows and asked, "But this palace has heard that a corpse related to the disappearance case was found on Liangshan in the past two days. Moreover, his hands were cut off and his face was pulled out. My husband went to see it, and I heard that my husband painted a portrait and learned that the deceased was the granddaughter of General Li?"
"Yes."
"Then... In addition to knowing who the deceased was, next to him, gone?"
"The clues have been broken, and there is no way to find out."
Ji Yunshu answered honestly, she didn't need to hide these things.
After all, for Concubine Xiao, no clues could be found in the disappearance case, and it was in her mind.
Concubine Xiao deliberately showed a look of disappointment, with a hint of sadness, and heaved a sigh of relief.
Said: "This case has dragged on for so long, and innocent women have disappeared one after another. Maybe they are all killed like General Li's granddaughter."
He sighed deeply!
The appearance of this woman really made Ji Yunshu disgusted by three points.
However, she swallowed the nausea.
"My lady is concerned about this case, it is the blessing of the common people, and the grass-roots people will naturally do their best."
"Mr. Ji is just as confident."
After speaking, Concubine Xiao gave a wink to the palace maid beside her.
I saw that the palace maid came forward with a very delicate brocade box, placed it on the small table beside Ji Yunshu, and opened it carefully.
What catches the eye is a very exquisite Hainan pearl.
"This Hainan Pearl was given to Ben Gong by the emperor a few years ago. Although Ben Gong likes it very much, I thought to myself that such a pearl is missing from Mr.'s belt. Why don't you give it to Mr.
How generous!
Ji Yunshu didn't show that he liked it, and didn't mean to reject it. He just stretched out his hand and pressed his fingertips lightly on the lid of the brocade box, pressing down.
Cover the box.
Concubine Xiao was puzzled: "Could it be that Mr. doesn't like it?"
"The things that Niangniang rewarded are of course exquisite and precious, but the grass people are used to wearing plain robes, and if they wear such expensive things on their belts, they are really not used to it."
"Oh? Since Mr. doesn't like Hainan Pearl, Ben Gong has something else."
The palace maid understood, and delivered a scroll again.
Spread out in front of her!
The colorful plum blossom branches on the picture are all dotted, and on the one-meter-long scroll, there is a large piece of plum blossoms painted in a light red color, which makes people feel very comfortable. Loose, come into sight without feeling numerous and dazzling.
I have to say that Ji Yunshu's heart was indeed a little moved.
Concubine Xiao stretched out her index finger with slender knuckles and pointed to a seal on the painting from a distance.
While explaining: "Can you recognize this seal, sir?"
At first glance, it turned out to be the painting of Bai Que, the first painter of Dalin.
"Yes, Mr. Bai's." She nodded.
"Mr. Bai's painting skills are the best in the entire Dalin, and no one can surpass it. His "Plum Garden" is the most proud painting in his life. It was acquired by this palace inadvertently. This first-class thing, of course, needs someone who knows how to appreciate it. I know that Mr. also likes to paint, and the chemical industry is also good. Why don't I, I will give this painting to Mr.
It has to be said that Ji Yunshu really wanted to accept this generous gift.
But she knew that once she accepted it, even if she was in Concubine Xiao's camp, she gave up to help Jingrong investigate the "Linjing Case".
There was a coldness in the bottom of her eyes, and she quickly covered up her heartbeat.
Smile!
…
Jing Xuan carried the skirt that she had just put on, and wore her hair in a very nice bun, and hurriedly ran towards the main hall.
A few palace maids followed, but they couldn't catch up with her.
At the entrance of the main hall, she was ready to rush in with joy, but was stopped by the eunuch beside her.
"Princess, Niangniang met Mr. Ji inside and ordered to come down, not to be disturbed."
"Presumptuous, don't you want to stop this princess?"
"Slave dare not."
"Then get out of here."
After all, the eunuch didn't dare to stop him, so he took two steps and moved to the side.
Jing Xuan snorted and went in with her skirt.
Just happened to see Ji Yunshu sitting on the chair, his eyes on the seductive picture.
And his mother-in-law looked at Ji Yunshu with a prying face!
On the other side, inside the Fuyang Palace.
Emperor Qi Zhen was sitting in front of the table, his brows and eyes were sad and serious, and he looked worried about the country and the people. On the table in front of him was a stack of memorials.
In the front row in the center of the hall, from left to right, stand Jing Yi, Jing Hua and Jing Rong respectively.
Behind the three, there were several ministers.
Behind the minister stood a few slightly younger civil servants. One of them, Shen Changqin, the son of the Minister of Rites, was appointed as the Minister of Rites at the recommendation of his father half a year ago.
Shen Changqin was also Ji Wanxin's future husband.
Seeing that he is bowing slightly, but his eyebrows are indeed quite delicate, and he has the appearance of a modest gentleman, which is really a good match for Ji Wanxin, the number one beauty in Jinjiang.
