I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

As the twelfth lunar month enters, the palace gradually has a new year flavor.

Every new year, all the objects in the palace will be replaced with new ones.Mingluan Palace has been getting ready early, just waiting for the first day of the Lunar New Year, to replace all the brand new silks.

In addition to changing objects, each palace also needs to inventory the warehouses, list the items in the warehouses into a book before the year, and arrange them properly before the previous year can be considered as a proper end.

Therefore, the palaces began to get busy.After a busy time, I saw that it was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

This day is the Laba Festival, the emperor does not need to attend the grand court meeting, all the women in the palace are waiting and looking forward to see if the emperor will summon him.But not long after, there were rumors in the palace that the emperor had not summoned anyone and had gone to the Qin Tianjian early in the morning.

Whenever the emperor goes to the Qin Tianjian, he will not be able to get out for half a day.Therefore, Concubine Shu also ordered the small kitchen to cook porridge early on, and she wanted to call them all to the main hall to eat Laba porridge.

But it never occurred to him that when it was noon, Ling Fu hurried over to deliver the decree, saying that the emperor would go to Mingluan Palace for lunch at noon.

Concubine Shu had no choice but to put the reunion dinner on hold, and hastily re-prepared the meal in the small kitchen.Jun Huailang also stayed in the side hall and had dinner with his sister.

When the meal was finished, Jun Linghuan had just fallen asleep when a eunuch came to tell that the emperor had sent Jun Huailang to the main hall to talk.

This is normal for Jun Huailang.

He packed up and went to the main hall.As soon as he walked to the entrance of the main hall, he heard talking and laughing inside.Concubine Shu was sitting in front of the small stove, clumsily making tea.Emperor Qingping sat at the head, already holding a cup in his hand, and was smiling heartily at this moment.

"I see Your Majesty." Jun Huailang just stepped forward to salute, but was waved away by Emperor Qingping.

He pointed to the side seat for Jun Huailang to sit down, and asked with a smile: "I heard from your aunt, you taught her the skill of making tea?"

Jun Huailang understood.

Presumably it was Concubine Shu who made tea for the emperor today and pleased him, which made the long-faced Emperor Qingping summon him to praise him for his good work.

Jun Huailang naturally didn't dare to take the credit, and said with a smile: "It's just that I have nothing to do, but I didn't expect my aunt to be so caring."

These words really taught Emperor Qingping Longyan Dayue, he laughed loudly and said: "I have never seen her do such a boring and laborious thing, I just think it's because you teach it well!"

Concubine Shu heard that the tea was not cooked anymore, she threw the fan in her hand on Emperor Qingping, and said angrily: "Your Majesty is really biased! The concubine worked hard to make tea for His Majesty, but I didn't see His Majesty complimenting the concubine!"

Emperor Qingping laughed again, and everyone around laughed with him, and the whole Mingluan Palace was filled with a lively atmosphere.

Jun Huailang smiled and sat beside him.

In his previous life, he had been an official for several years, so he knew a thing or two about Emperor Qingping's temperament.He is superstitious and quite suspicious. Concubine Shu has been favored by his side for so many years, all thanks to her innocent and naive temperament.

Everyone in the Jun family, whether it was his father or his aunt, reassured Emperor Qingping.Unexpectedly, it was because of this reassurance that the Jun family withered and died after a few years of teaching him.

Jun Huailang, who has passed through the previous life, is the most familiar with what it means to be with a king like a tiger, so looking at the joy in front of him, his heart is still calm and solemn, and he stays out of it.

So much so that he was able to notice keenly that there was a commotion gradually outside the half-open window.

The center of the turmoil was Diancui.She seems to have encountered some trouble, and she is looking for the court ladies and eunuchs to be held accountable.

But she was not concentrating, and while she was busy with the matter in front of her, she seemed to be casually observing the movement in the main hall.

Her behavior is very unusual, but it coincides with Jun Huailang's speculation a few days ago.Jun Huailang's heart shuddered, and his eyes followed her calmly.

I saw that she gradually became anxious and angry, and went to ask Jinbao at the entrance of the west hall.But seeing Jinbao hesitating, he seemed a little anxious.Seeing his appearance, Diancui seemed to have caught something, and said something to him angrily.

Jun Huailang felt relieved a lot.

Sure enough, he was right.Jin Bao next to Xue Yan looked timid and cowardly, but he was actually very clever. He remembered everything he had told him before.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the movement outside the window to attract Emperor Qingping's attention.

"It's noisy outside, what's the matter?" He asked with a frown.

Concubine Shu also looked out, when Dian Cuiba raised her voice, and said aggressively to Jin Bao: "If you didn't do anything sneaky, why didn't you hand over the key!"

I saw Jinbao faltering, as if he was explaining something.

The dispute between the two disturbed Emperor Qingping.He frowned, and ordered Ling Fu: "Go, call the two of them in, and ask what's wrong."

Ling Fu quickly received the order and trotted all the way to the courtyard.

Jun Huailang saw that the originally happy face of Emperor Qingping revealed an expression of impatience.

Presumably, the person behind Diancui knows Emperor Qingping quite well, and also knows how to anger him.She arranged for Diancui to do this, in order to make Emperor Qingping feel bored with Concubine Shu.

Of course, it's more than just this level.

Jun Huailang sat beside him, waiting quietly, and saw that Ling Fu brought Jin Bao and Dian Cui in.

When Jinbao entered the door, he looked at Jun Huailang with some trepidation.Jun Huailang blinked at him reassuringly before turning his eyes away.

Then, Emperor Qingping asked them what happened.

"Your Majesty, it is wrong for slaves to disturb Shengjia, but apart from stealthy activities in the empress's palace, slaves cannot sit idly by!" Dian Cui kowtowed to Emperor Qingping and said.

Emperor Qingping took a sip of tea: "Let's talk about it, what's the matter of stealing chickens and dogs?"

Dian Cui then continued: "Back to Your Majesty, this servant has been checking my mother's warehouse these days, and found that a box of bank notes brought by my mother from her mother's house is missing. This servant searched all over the warehouse and found nothing, so I thought maybe I misplaced it, so I went I wanted to go to the warehouses in the east and west halls, but the warehouses in the east hall were searched, and in the warehouses in the west hall, Jinbao refused to let the servants enter!"

Emperor Qingping frowned.

How could such a trivial housework have to be brought up in front of him?He came to Concubine Shu's place just to find a place to be at ease, but Concubine Shu really didn't have the ability to be a housekeeper, and even the smallest things would make a mess.

He glanced at Jin Bao patiently, and asked, "Why?"

Jin Bao hurriedly kowtowed tremblingly: "Reporting to the emperor, it's true that the slave doesn't have a key here!"

"No key?" Emperor Qingping was puzzled. "Your own master's treasury, where did the key go?"

Jin Bao kowtowed again: "Go back to Your Majesty, there is only one key to the storeroom in the west hall. Seven or eight days ago, Aunt Cui said that she would count it for His Highness, and she already took it!"

Beside, Dian Cui suddenly showed an expression of disbelief.

Only one...!These days, this slave has never said that to himself!

Even just now, he didn't say that he didn't have a key at hand, he just refused to open the door blindly, why now, he changed his mind all of a sudden!

Could it be that he was tricked by this slave?But what I did... No one has ever noticed, so how could this slave come prepared!

Next to her, Concubine Shu got a headache from the noise, so she simply called Zheng Guangde over and asked, "You gave Jinbao the keys to the west hall, how many keys are there for the warehouse?"

Zheng Guangde didn't dare to lie, he quickly said: "Go back to your mother, I only have one hand."

Concubine Shu frowned and looked at Dian Cui, but she still didn't think badly about her: "Did I remember wrong?"

Dian Cui was disturbed by this incident at this time, so she had no choice but to climb down and said: "It's all because of the servant's memorization, I forgot to have a key in my hand...The servant will check it now!"

She thought to herself, it's okay, the key matter is just a trivial matter.She had no intention of arguing about how many keys Jinbao had in his hand, as long as she opened the warehouse and let the emperor see the object she put in, then what she had to do would be considered complete.

Emperor Qing Ping waved his hands impatiently, telling them all to go down: "It's only a little money, but it's worth making such a fuss?"

But then, his eyes froze.

He remembered the hexagrams given to him by Qin Tianjian this morning.

The hexagrams told him that Mingluan Palace might not be able to suppress this evil spirit, and there would be some small disturbances in the near future.I didn't expect it to be so accurate, the hexagram just approved is about to come true...

Thinking of this, Emperor Qingping's expression became even uglier.

He thought of the prophecy after the hexagram.The prophecy said that when the evil star moves, there will be constant chaos thereafter.And the root of this chaos is the unstable foundation of the evil town.

As for the reason for the unstable foundation, the people here have different intentions.

Aren't the people here the Jun family?Thinking of this, Emperor Qingping couldn't drink the tea in his hand.

Next to her, Concubine Shu didn't take this small accident to heart, and went to make her tea with all her heart.

But Emperor Qingping obviously said less.Concubine Shu only thought that Emperor Qingping was upset by that trivial incident, so she also stopped, waiting for Diancui to search clearly and come back to report.

Concubine Shu stared at the small clay stove, a little unhappy.

For a little money, she ruined a good pot of tea.This is the first pot of tea that she made by herself, how much does it cost?

At this moment, there was a commotion in the west side hall.

Dian Cui was originally guarding the door, but saw the palace maid stumbled out to report.Then, Diancui's expression also changed, and he ran all the way to the main hall to return to his command.

"A major event has happened, Your Majesty, Your Majesty! You...please both of you go and have a look!"

Dian Cui knelt on the ground trembling, looking terrified.But Jun Huailang saw that she hadn't raised her head, as if she wanted to hide her flustered eyes.

"What's the matter, can you be so anxious?" Concubine Shu frowned and stood up.

Emperor Qingping was a little displeased, and said angrily: "Hesitating, why don't you make it clear sooner?"

Dian Cui was trembling, only focused on touching her head to the ground.

"Report to His Majesty, report to Empress! In the west hall... not only were the bank notes found, but a box was also hidden under the bank note box..."

"That box actually hides a voodoo puppet, which is written in the handwriting of His Highness the Fifth Prince, and written on it... is the horoscope of the empress' birthday!"
