Chapter 360 Four Claws
When Linlang returned, she looked obviously unhappy.
It was Mu Linghua who shouted several times before she came back to her senses.
"Where have you gone? Why do you look like you've been knocked out of your mind? Here, I'll give you this."
She pushed over a beautiful long box.
Linlang couldn't react for a while and asked: "What is this?"
"This is what Yao Ronghua said to reward you. Didn't you fish out the pipa that fell into the water for her before? So she rewarded you with a flute." Mu Linghua pursed her lips, looking puzzled.
"It's strange to say that she is so crazy about the pipa. If she wanted to reward you, why did she give you the flute instead of the pipa?"
Linlang smiled, taking off her outer clothes, wiping the thin sweat from her forehead due to the getting hotter weather, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Yao Ronghua is obsessed with pipa. Probably in her heart, no one can match the pipa except herself..."
If her previous understanding of Xie Qingying was that she was cold, aloof and unreasonable, now she has a new perspective.
"Don't worry, the emperor knows it well." After all, Tang Zuotou still has great uses.
Although her relationship with He Chu was really just a family relationship, there was no guarantee what others would think, so in order to avoid misunderstandings and trouble, she simply followed He Chu's example and called Eunuch He as her master.
She doesn't know how the so-called most talented and beautiful woman is selected. She can't compete in the ring like modern times, right?
However, in her impression, Shen Lanyi was the most bookish person.
After re-entering the house, Linlang lay down directly and said hello to the system who looked at her with disgust.
"It seems that few of these most talented and beautiful women can live a smooth life, right? But if it brings disaster, then what's the use of this title? Is it just for getting married?"
Naturally, the others did not dare to stop him, only Linlang quietly extended her hand.
"Master, is something wrong?"
He does not mean that.
It is true that they have nothing to do with the affairs of the court, but Da Qi is everyone's Da Qi, so he has nothing to do with it.
But after they get married, these previous values seem to have no meaning.
He Jinlu helped her in and said in an extremely low voice, "Master Xie Si reported that someone dug out a blood stone from the ground. Originally, this was nothing, but that blood stone."
It seemed like he didn't say anything, but when he thought about it carefully, he said everything.
"The Concubine Xian was the talented woman before, and Jiang Ronghua is the current one. But the new one should be coming out soon."
Her arrogance is not He Jinyu's arrogance, but a kind of extreme coldness that is truly arrogant. It is not directed at anyone, but everyone here is equally ignored.
She only said this, and the other person's frowning eyebrows finally relaxed.
After a long while, he uttered something vaguely.
Mu Linghua's eyes clearly read - 'Are you teasing me by asking questions knowingly?'
"I heard that Jiang Ronghua is a talented woman who is famous in the capital. What she likes must not be vulgar."
Da Qi regards five claws as a real dragon and four claws as a python, that is, a false dragon.
"Hey, your bracelets are so nice and tight. I've been wondering where you got them for a long time." Mu Linghua brought her a plate of grilled cakes, which were paired with refreshing pickled carrot shreds and sauce.
"Isn't the talented woman in the capital... the Concubine Xian?" Holding the chopsticks again, Linlang asked what she had been confused about.
Lunch is a bowl of Yangchun noodles and summer cakes filled with minced meat.
Linlang lowered her head to eat the cake, not in high spirits.
For the first time, Vice Shang's expression also showed obvious fluctuations, and anyone could see the look of worry in his eyes.
Linlang seemed to be able to relate that this was another wave of bloodshed.
Carefully looking around, he quietly held out four fingers from under his sleeves, and pointed at the dragon-shaped stone sculpture under the eaves of the palace in the distance...
In that room, Mu Linghua was still talking about it with admiration in her eyes.
Linlang:……
Having said this, he paused.
Linlang's hand holding the chopsticks paused.
Linlang didn't know how serious this matter was while staying in the palace. He only knew that Old Man Tang temporarily stopped what he was doing and looked at the four-clawed fake dragon's blood stone instead.
In the past, when she mentioned these things, she was always given praise and good names. This was the first time Mu Linghua was being brutally indoctrinated by her chaotic outlook on things, and she couldn't help biting the piece of cake in her mouth blankly.
Mu Linghua and Fan Dianshan tried to comfort her several times but to no avail. Finally, they both held Linlang out from the left and right and pushed her forward.
Murong Linshen was never a good person, so you can imagine how annoyed he would be after being caused such trouble.
Before a group of migrant workers had time to complain about the recent rapid decline in food quality, they saw Eunuch He who was rarely calm and hurried.
"Of course it won't count if you get married."
The girl's voice was a little dull, like a stagnant bead.
King Kang has been deposed, and the locusts in the west have no time to take care of themselves, so only Donglu and Nanyi are left under suspicion.
This is a feeding habit left over from winter, and it is obvious that it has not been changed yet.
Xie Qingying seems to be fighting, but there are a lot of things.
If it had been in the past, that would have been fine, but now that there are disasters and people are complaining, this incident will inevitably make people think about some bad things.
But she was only fighting for a pure position of power, not Murong Linshen. The emperor was just a bridge and tool to achieve her goals.
Even unlike other concubines, maybe deep down in her heart, even the emperor is not worthy of her, and cannot compare to her pipa...
"This kind of pattern is rare. The last time I saw Jiang Ronghua dropped the handkerchief, it seemed that the same pattern was embroidered on it..."
"What about the Emperor?"
[Simulation starts——]
It is no longer a secret that she and He Chu are close.
"Well, it's still the same as before. I can't tell anything at all... That blood stone will be transported back to the capital soon. Now there are all kinds of things outside the palace, making it noisy."
"The news just got from Wisteria State."
Grand Eunuch He worriedly asked, "This matter has nothing to do with us anyway. You and Chu'er just need to take care of yourselves. The master is here and will do his best to protect you."
"Hey, hey, why do you suddenly look like you don't want to talk anymore?" Mu Linghua said in excitement, like a duck pinching her neck, feeling uncomfortable.
But the two of them were getting older, and there was no shortage of eunuchs and maidens in the palace to pair up with each other.
Linlang knew the autumn in a flash, and instantly understood the problem with the blood stone.
But Linlang took a piece of cake and stuffed the remaining words in her mouth.
"ah?"
