Princess and The General

Chapter 246: Half a mandarin duck (one more)

Views:

In the Tsinghua Palace, the concubine Xian was sitting under the window embroidering, and the embroidered cloth in her hand was half a mandarin duck.

Hibiscus came up with the colored thread, "Which kind of gold thread does the lady want? The slave and maid found several kinds of gold thread in the warehouse, and I can't tell which one is gold thread."

She simply sent all the silk threads she found to Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian took a look at her hand, "It's this, but the color is not very conspicuous. Go and find out if there is a new one. If not, send someone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask for some."

"Okay, the slave and maid will send someone away. Don't rush to embroider the mandarin ducks, you might as well embroider the water waves on the side first, and the gold thread will come after you finish embroidering."

Concubine Xian yelled at her, "Aren't you hurry? Go here?"

Mu Jin smiled and stepped back. She knew that it was the purse that the concubine Xian had embroidered for Emperor Ning, and planned to put spices on him on the Dragon Boat Festival. The two and two imperial concubines add up to almost a hundred years old, and the concubine Xian also uses the love patterns like mandarin ducks.

It can be seen that the friendship between the two is long.

After a while, Concubine Xian heard the footsteps of Mujin going back and forth, "Have you brought it? This gold thread must be used for the feathers on the mandarin duck. The other gold threads are either tacky or the color is wrong."

Hibiscus made no sound.

Concubine Xian kept her head down for a long time, her neck was sore, she raised her head and hammered the hammer, only to realize that the person here was not Hibiscus.

"Your Majesty? Why did you come suddenly?"

Ningdi stood alone at the door, with Father Gao behind him, and no extra people with him.

He stood there silently, wondering how long he looked at himself.

Concubine Xian panicked a little, she forced herself to greet her with a calm smile. Di Ning's eyes were inquisitive, "I have nothing to do in my leisure time, so let's see what Ai Concubine is doing for nothing."

"I didn't do anything, just embroider a purse for your Majesty, so that you can wear spices to eliminate evil and avoid poison when waiting for the Dragon Festival."

Eliminate evil and avoid poison.

When Emperor Ning heard these four words, his eyes suddenly became vigilant, seeing Concubine Xian's eyes completely different from before.

He walked to the couch and took a look at the embroidered stretch. "I am a person who has been diagnosed and treated by the God of Medicine. Even if I don't want to get rid of evil and avoid poison, it's okay. What does Aifei say?"

Concubine Xian gave a thud in her heart.

In the past, the only person who was afraid of Emperor Ning in the dynasty was Gu Huaijiang, who was in power.

Now, everything is reversed.

Except for Gu Huaijiang, everyone seemed to be jealous. He left the eldest prince and the second prince in the cold a few days ago, and today he ran to say something bothersome to himself.

Did he know something

"Naturally. Your Majesty is the emperor of the true dragon. With the blessing of God, he will be able to live forever."

I'm used to hearing Shanhu Long live and don't think anything. To hear this from the concubine Xian today is hypocritical.

"I only think that I can live to eighty like a queen, and I will be content. Long live long live, long live love, Concubine Ai would never use these hypocritical words to perfuse me."

Concubine Xian smiled awkwardly.

Ning Di never said she was hypocritical.

He flicked his robes and sat on the couch. "Today Gao Gonggong informed me that it was a little palace lady who was eavesdropping on the master's conversation by Xi Gong. She was arrested on the spot by Danyang. She said she was sent by Ai Fei to monitor her. Danyang."

It turns out that Emperor Ning's yin and yang are strange today because of this.

It's okay to be a spy, and the women in the harem are vying for favor. Whose palace doesn't have a few others' eyeliners

The problem is that this palace lady helped herself to detect the Prince Li, this matter must not be known to Emperor Ning!

"Your Majesty, this must be someone calculating the concubine. If you say that the concubine puts eyeliner in the harem, the concubine dare not deny it. The harem woman has a complicated mind, and the concubine temporarily manages the harem, so she dare not miss it. But Princess Danyang is your majesty. His daughter is not a concubine, what good is it for a concubine to monitor her?"

Emperor Ning frowned and did not dare to believe it credulously, "It is naturally beneficial to monitor her. She is the younger sister of the second prince, and monitoring her can get the second prince's movements. Do you dare to say that you don't want the prince to win the prince's position? ?"

"Prince? Your majesty has hinted at your concubine. You belong to the second prince. Where can your concubine dare to hope?"

Emperor Ning carefully studied the expression of the person next to the pillow. She had slept with herself for more than 20 years, and treated herself thoughtfully and properly.

Before the spring, she was embroidering herself with a pouch for the Duanyang Festival, using the most beloved mandarin duck pattern among birds, symbolizing the love between husband and wife.

Would such a woman really hurt herself in the battle for storage

He hesitated, "I have hinted at you, but I have not given you an answer with certainty. I told the second prince that he and Danyang were picked up by the court lady, which inevitably caused the jealousy of other princes. Perhaps because of this, I was sick. It's inexplicable."

The concubine Xian bluffed to her knees, "Your Majesty meant that someone coveted the position of the prince and deliberately wanted to kill your Majesty?"

"Yes, that's what I mean."

She knocked her head to the ground, among the sparks, the will to survive suddenly made her have an idea.

"The concubine dared to ask your Majesty. That day, your Majesty was seriously ill and suddenly became anxious. Is it because the second prince and Princess Danyang said something?"

How could she suddenly ask this

Emperor Ning said slowly: "That day, the second prince suddenly came to me, afraid that I could not afford to be sick, and wanted me to..."

Suddenly he couldn't continue, staring at Concubine Xian incredulously, "You mean, this was not done by you and the first prince, but the second prince?"
