Chapter Thirty-One: Could It Be Her?

Just as the imperial concubine was about to speak, the queen added: "So what if I ask people to pour salt water to encourage the flowers to bloom? I also want to let the emperor and the emperor see this epiphyllum bloom, so that all the sisters can see it fresh, even if it withers in advance.

So what? I still want to throw this troublesome thing away, noble concubine, don’t use my tolerance of you as a bargaining chip for your wantonness!"

"You..." The imperial concubine looked at the queen in astonishment. Isn't this the result she had planned so carefully? The queen actually admitted it herself. She should have been ecstatic, but at this moment she always felt uneasy.

It's just because the Queen has not been so aggressive and scolded her so forcefully for many years.

The emperor looked at the queen with soft eyes, she was his queen.

"It's just three pots of flowers. Is it worth your quarrel? I see that these flowers are extremely ugly. Someone is here. Take them out and throw them away!" the emperor said calmly.

"Yes!" Wu Shulai responded and asked the little eunuch next to him to come and move the flowers.

"Wait a minute..." At this moment, Princess Hejing jumped into the palace. Behind her were her elder brothers Yonghuang and Balzul.

"The Ai family's pear is here, come and show it to the Ai family!" The Queen Mother immediately beamed when she saw Princess He Jing coming.

"My grandson, please give your regards to the Imperial Grandmother!" The princess and the eldest brother immediately bowed down, and Balzul also saluted together: "May the Queen Mother be blessed with peace, and may the Emperor be blessed with peace!".

"Get up!" the Queen Mother smiled.

"You should be in the study at this time. Lili, you sneaked out with your eldest brother and Balzul again? Carefully, master, slap your palms, you playful little thing!" The emperor also looked doting on his face.

looked at his daughter.

"Master can't bear to beat pears. Besides, with elder brother and Balzhuer here, it's my turn to be punished. Your Majesty, I heard someone said that the beauties under the moon are blooming, so I rushed here in a hurry.

But as soon as she entered the Changchun Palace, she heard from the little eunuch that the flowers had been tampered with and their hands and feet had withered, so she hurried in to take a look!" After the princess said this, she looked at Wei Ning'er and Ruoyan: "What happened?"

Wei Ning'er had no choice but to tell her the whole story.

"I see. This princess thought something big had happened. Now it seems that it was a false alarm. Emperor Ama, don't throw away this flower. What a pity. Keep it and give it away.

My son, I have never seen this flower bloom!" the princess said, holding the emperor's hand and shaking it.

"Li Li said yes, of course that's fine. Here comes someone. Send these flowers to the princess's room!" The emperor patted her little face with a doting look on his face.

"Yes!" A young eunuch immediately came forward to move the flowers.

"It is said in the Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Dharma that the Buddha told Shariputra that such a wonderful Dharma was expounded by the Buddhas Tathagata at one time or another. It is like an Utanbo flower that suddenly appears in the ear. My sister has received such a wonderful flower. I am so happy and congratulated!"

Brother suddenly laughed.

The princess suddenly ran over to the eldest brother and whispered in his ear: "This epiphyllum is not that epiphyllum. Brother, you are talking nonsense again! Be careful, the master will slap your palms if he knows you are showing off!"

"Haha..." The eldest brother laughed dryly.

"What are Lili talking about?" the Queen Mother smiled.

"It's a secret, my grandson can't tell the royal grandmother!" the princess said with a sweet smile.

If others dared to talk to the Queen Mother like this, she would definitely be angry, but her granddaughter was her favorite child, and it was too late for her to like her.

"You still have secrets at such a young age. Emperor, look, this little girl has grown up!" The Queen Mother's eyes were full of smiles.

"Yes, this girl is almost thirteen years old and will get married in two years!" the emperor said with a smile.

"Lili won't marry, the emperor's grandmother and the emperor's mother are making fun of them!" the princess said sweetly, pouting her little mouth.

"That can't be done!" said the Queen Mother, patting her hand.

"You can get married if you want. Grandma Huang and Amma Huang must agree to Lili, and Lili must choose her husband, otherwise she won't get married! Amma Huang shouldn't think about marrying off her son to make peace, because I don't want to!"

"I have already obeyed you, but the Imperial Grandmother is reluctant to let you leave the capital!" The Queen Mother held her hand and smiled.

"Empress Huang, this child just loves to make mischief. Lili, please go back to the study!" The queen looked at her daughter with some helplessness.

"Your Majesty, it's almost time for lunch. It won't help to go back to the study now. Let's go back later!" the princess said softly.

"Yi Lili's Wu Shulai went to the imperial dining room to convey the order. Today, everyone will have dinner in Changchun Palace!" the emperor ordered.

"My slave obeys the order!" Wu Shulai responded.

After lunch, the princess asked Wei Ning'er and Ruoyan to go with them to the Arrow Pavilion to ride horses and shoot arrows. The Queen Mother might be a little tired, so she returned to Cining Palace early. The Emperor also returned to Qianqing Palace to handle political affairs. The concubines of each palace met with the Emperor and

The Queen Mother had all left. Feeling bored, they dispersed.

There was no one around, so the Queen called Aunt Cui to the bedroom and ordered Chu Xia to screen everyone away.

"Mommy, what do you think of this matter today?" The queen looked at Aunt Cui, her eyes full of worry.

"Your Majesty... it's all my slave's fault. If I hadn't sent them salt and sugar last night, something like this wouldn't have happened today, which almost caused my Majesty's trouble!" Aunt Cui also regretted it.

"Mom, why did you give those to them?" The queen was very confused. Naturally, she would not doubt Aunt Cui's loyalty.

"Your Majesty, my servant went to the House of Internal Affairs to collect Angelica dahurica powder according to your Majesty's order yesterday day. I happened to meet people from each palace, so I chatted with them for a few words. I saw that Mu Yun in Concubine Xian's Palace actually made people

I took some extra salt and sugar. I felt strange for a moment and asked more questions. Then I found out that Concubine Xian could use salt water and sugar water to water the flowers. So each of the slaves also took a jar back to the palace and gave it to Ning'er and the others. They never thought that

What happened today will happen!" Aunt Cui really regretted it.

"Were everyone from all the palaces there at that time?" The queen's face changed slightly.

"The Imperial Concubine, the Pure Concubine, the Jia Concubine, Yu Concubine, Yi Concubine, and Shu Concubine are all here!" Aunt Cui immediately replied.

"So... these people are all possible!" the queen said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, it's my fault this time. I knew that everyone in the palace was staring at those three beauties under the moon, but at the critical moment, I sent them there to be plotted. This slave deserves to die!" Aunt Cui said in a trembling voice.

"Mommy, there's no need to blame yourself. You're right. Everyone in the palace is staring at the three pots of flowers, hoping that I will make a mistake. Concubine Xian...she didn't tell her sooner or later, but she revealed that trick at that time.

Those who want to harm me have pointed out a way. She is really high, but I have underestimated her!" The queen's words were full of coldness.

"Concubine Xian has never asked about the affairs of the palace and never competed for favors. Is this really what she did?" Aunt Cui couldn't believe it.

When the queen heard this, her eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems that she is indifferent to the world, but in fact... I don't know what she has planned. She has always adhered to her duties since she married into the palace. She has never made any mistakes in these years, let alone with others.
