Chapter 63: The Secrets Hidden in the Buddhist Sutras of Peace
The eldest princess didn't notice Zuo Wanqing's little move. She grinned lightly and snatched the wax-sealed meatballs from Chu Luchen's hand, and took out the contents without hesitation.
"You Zuo Wanqing, how dare you curse my emperor's life? You bitch!" The eldest princess unfolded the note and threw it at Wan Qing's feet, her tone becoming vicious.
Wan Qing smiled lowly, and with their sharp ears, they all heard the flow of people gradually approaching.
"What's the fuss about? The Ai family just stopped by to see their grandson. I heard you grinning and yelling from afar. It's not easy." The Queen Mother came over surrounded by people and fondly poked the eldest princess on the forehead.
, I didn’t see any disgust. I think the eldest princess still has a very good image in the heart of the Queen Mother.
"Royal Grandmother! Look at the good thing Zuo Wanqing has done!" Hearing that the Queen Mother did not blame her, the eldest princess's smile became even stronger. She held the Queen Mother's hand and acted coquettishly while ordering someone to throw Zuo Wanqing at Wan Qing's feet.
picked up the paper.
Wan Qing knelt straight and saluted the Queen Mother respectfully. There was still a slight smile on her lips. She was not annoyed or anxious. The eldest princess saw it but did not take it into her heart.
The Queen Mother listened to the eldest princess's whisper, and her expression changed continuously. She first collected Chu Lurong's sachet. It was indeed as the eldest princess said, there was a wax-sealed ball with paper hidden in the ball.
The Queen Mother's face has darkened. She does have a preference for Wan Qing, but if she wants to harm her grandson, she will not be lenient.
The note handed over by the palace servants did not contain Chinese characters, so the Queen Mother asked the eldest princess to read it.
After a long discussion, even Chu Luoyu did not expect it to go so smoothly.
"Eldest Princess, don't you feel that what you said seems to be much more than what is on the paper?" Wan Qing spoke in a low voice during the pause of the eldest princess, and bowed to the Queen Mother again, "Empress Dowager, my lord.
If you have any questions, please ask the Queen Mother to make the decision."
The Queen Mother was indeed a little shaken when she heard what Wan Qing said, so she agreed with her words.
"The Queen Mother, if my daughter has been wronged, please ask the Queen Mother to order the eldest princess to apologize." Zuo Wanqing lowered her head and said nothing, as if the guards approaching behind her did not pose a threat to her.
"Oh? It's unjust. It's written in black and white on the paper. Let's see what you can say!" The eldest princess sneered while holding the paper. Indeed, she couldn't catch Zuo Wanqing before and could only watch Chu Lurong and Chu Lvchen helplessly.
He went to look for her from time to time and came back very happy.
Now, if he hadn't taken action earlier and made her unable to stand up forever, I'm afraid she would be his biggest opponent in the future.
Chu Lurong and Chu Lvchen both wanted to speak, but looking at the eldest princess's face, they knew that this disaster was probably closely related to them, so they had no choice but to keep silent, so as not to make the matter worse.
The eldest princess waved the paper, and Chu Luchen vaguely saw the words on it, which seemed to be Sanskrit, but because he couldn't guess the meaning, he couldn't help but worry that Wan Qing had fallen into a trap.
The Empress Dowager nodded with a livid face as a sign of agreement, and then ordered someone to fetch the clerk on duty in the imperial study room and ordered him to interpret the words on the paper.
This was a miscalculation by the eldest princess. She did not expect that Wan Qing would hold such great weight in the Queen Mother's heart, and she was willing to give her a chance to defend herself even under such circumstances.
The clerk took the note, frowned slightly, and answered the Queen Mother's question after a long time, "This is the Ksitigarbha Sutra. The other is the Diamond Sutra. Both have the meaning of blessing and peace."
The smile on the Queen Mother's face quickly emerged, and her smile towards Wan Qing became a little thicker, "Wan'er, the Ai family has wrongly blamed you..."
The eldest princess's face turned pale. She didn't believe it. This was a forged document that she had obtained from a foreigner for thousands of silver. How could it be possible?
"Thank you, the Queen Mother." Wan Qing bowed to the Queen Mother again, slowly straightened up and looked at the eldest princess, and the smile on his face was sarcastic in the eyes of the eldest princess.
"Luo Yu, why don't you apologize quickly! What did you say about Wan'er's thoughts?" The Queen Mother immediately pushed the eldest princess and asked her to apologize. However, the eldest princess leaned to the ground.
Tears welled up and said, "Grandma Huang, why are you pushing Luo Yu away! Luo Yu knows that he is wrong, why not! It's not for the sake of the emperor's brother!"
The Queen Mother had a headache. She knew how much effort she had exerted, but the little girl started making trouble again, and she felt that it was her fault. Looking at Wan Qing's stubborn eyes, the Queen Mother also sighed.
.
"Wan'er, the Ai family apologized to you on behalf of Luo Yu..." The Queen Mother rubbed her temples and felt that there seemed to be something unusual among these children. However, children who are obviously only such a young age should not be like this.
Bar?
"The Queen Mother, you have offended my daughter. Now that the Queen Mother has washed away my grievances, the matter has been revealed. The Queen Mother has a kind heart, and I am really lucky." Wan Qing smiled lowly.
, salute appropriately. At the same time, he gathered the poured tea leaves aside and carefully put them away, but did not put them into the sachet. He saluted Chu Lurong and Chu Lvchen again, "Please also invite the eldest prince,
The second prince has made atonement for his sins. This sachet is allowed to be taken back and redone by my daughter. I will send someone to send it to the palace tomorrow."
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome. Just put it in." Chu Luchen reached out and put the tea leaves into the sachet, with deep apology in his eyes.
Chu Lurong's face didn't look good either. He grabbed the sachet and his expression didn't look better. He looked at the eldest princess with a look as ridiculous as if he were looking at an actor.
Looking at the eldest princess who finally left with the Queen Mother, Wan Qing's smile gradually widened.
If you do your own evil, you will not live.
"By the way, Princess Zuo, you haven't said yet why the colors are different." Seeing that the annoyed eldest princess had left, Chu Lurong planned to start another conversation and get over the matter.
Wan Qing turned her head, carefully tightened the sachet, and tied it into a beautiful knot, "The eldest prince likes bright-colored clothes. You like this sapphire blue more than cyan, and the satin is of excellent quality. It should match
It is suitable for the eldest prince. And this cyan color is relatively simple, and the second prince likes dark cyan clothes, so it is just right."
"Princess Zuo is still thoughtful..." Chu Luchen was sipping her tea, but when she saw the fine scars on her fingers, she felt like a stone was clogging her chest again, and she had to look away.
Seeing that Wan Qing had lost interest, Chu Lurong ordered someone to bring her the best wound medicine, "I didn't expect Princess Zuo to be left-handed. When we were playing chess just now, I thought you had injured your right hand, but I didn't expect it."
This left hand is also injured."
Wan Qing thanked him for the medicine and lowered his head to hide the sneer in his eyes.
She never mentioned this matter to anyone, just because of today's situation.
