The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

Xiaohuajing and his party are sitting in the garden.

The guests only knew that there was an imperial envoy in the palace, but they didn't know who the imperial envoy was.

When Jia Hu entered the bridal chamber, Xiao Huajing went to Rongxi Hall to bid farewell to her grandfather, but met many wives of the palace here.

Especially Ma Shangxiang's mother and sister-in-law.

When they inquired about Ma Shangxiang's situation, Xiao Huajing said in one word: Good!

Mrs. Ma wanted to bring a gift to her daughter.

Xiao Huajing suggested: "In this critical period, it is not appropriate to use things from private houses for food and drink.

If the old lady misses Ma Jieyu, she can hand over a sign and ask for an audience, and the minister will make it happen as soon as possible. "

The two mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Ma family were very happy.

Mrs. Ma's eyes were red with excitement, she held onto Xiao Huajing and did not let go: "Xiang'er told me that she is grateful to you for taking care of her in the palace, thank you."

Xiao Huajing immediately laughed and said: "As a speech officer, you should take care of your empress.

Empress Jieyu is today, thanks to the grace of His Majesty and Empress. "

The servant of the Supervisor of Ceremonies is actually Emperor Jiahe's spy.

Every time he went out of the palace to announce the decree, and after returning to the palace, he would report to Dai Quan the words and deeds of the imperial envoy.

Dai Quan will report to His Majesty again.

Mrs. Ma is just Xiaojiabiyu, her gratitude is sincere, but it is not appropriate.

Her daughter-in-law is a lady of every family.

Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are at odds but can't read jokes.

My sister-in-law has a good life in the palace, and she should be grateful to the empress.

She hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's empress's kindness to the Ma family is as high as heaven and earth, and it is difficult to repay one of the ten thousand deaths in the government."

Xiaohua gave her a thumbs up secretly, and left.

This time when entering the palace, Xiaohuajing didn't bring anything except a catty of tender lotus leaf tea for the empress.

The lotus leaf tea was also brought into the Kunning Palace after passing through the guards of the Shenwumen, and after entering the Inner Palace and being inspected and registered by the Rites Supervisor.

On behalf of the family, Xiao Huajing first thanked the queen, and said: "My grandparents, grandfathers, uncles and aunts will come to the palace to thank you tomorrow.

This tender lotus tea is Weichen's mother thanking the empress for taking care of Weichen.Pay tribute to the empress. "

Tribute a catty of tea?

The queen was surprised: "What special effect does this tea have?"

Xiao Hua Jing said: "Weichen has repeatedly explained that empresses generally don't eat food outside the palace.

However, Weichen's mother said that lotus leaf tea has the effect of detoxifying and beautifying the skin. Weichen didn't believe it at first, but Weichen's mother said that she was nearly forty years old, her complexion was rosy, and her skin was tender, all thanks to this lotus leaf tea. Money tea, Weichen had no choice but to bring it in. "

The queen was very interested: "It's so good, I can't wait to try it."

"My minister is willing to serve."

To be on the safe side, Xiao Huajing made tea for the empress on the spot, and tasted a cup herself, before letting the empress taste it.

The queen was very satisfied, but said: "Jia Siyan is really too careful."

Then taste the lotus leaf tea.

The Empress took a sip of the tea and nodded, "This tea is indeed very fragrant."

Xiao Huajing said: "Weichen's mother said that this tea needs to be consumed for seven or eight days before it will be effective.

After the empress ate this tea, half an hour later, she added several times more warm water to promote detoxification, and the effect would be even better. "

The empress agreed with a smile, and told Nanny Qi: "Remember what Jia Siyan said, and remember to remind me when the time comes."

Xiaohuajing specifically explained: "This tea is not good for pregnant women, empress, why don't I let my minister keep this tea for you?"

The queen laughed immediately: "It's no wonder that your grandfather was promoted by the late emperor, and was reused by His Majesty."

This kind of thing is very detailed, be careful, don't let people have the slightest chance to be a monster, it's strange if they don't succeed.

But Xiao Huajing said: "Grandfather taught me a lesson, everything in this world is easy to grasp, except the human heart is unpredictable.

Weichen did this for the empress empress and empress Jieyu, and also for himself. "

The queen said: "I like Jia Siyan's frankness."

Even if someone uses lotus leaf tea to make trouble, Xiaohuajing can ensure Ma Shangxiang's safety.

Xiao Huajing is afraid of trouble, and doesn't want to give people an opportunity.

The lotus money tea floret essence was not taken away from Kunning Palace, but locked in the box by herself.

Even if someone opened the box, they would not be able to get the tea, because the small flower essence put an aura cover on the bamboo jar of the lotus leaf tea, which can prevent the aura from leaking and also prevent theft.

Also, Xiao Huajing wants to take a look, those people in Kunning Palace are other people's spies.

For the next three days, Xiaohuajing lived on the west corridor and took care of Ma Shangxiang nearby.

Ma Shangxiang has been pregnant for a hundred days, except for being with His Majesty, Ma Shangxiang hardly ever leaves Kunning Palace.

In addition to the emperor's guards in Xinuan Hall, Xiao Huajing also watched closely, and it was basically impossible to attack.

In this way, more empresses will visit Kunning Palace.

Except for His Majesty's visit, during the rest of the time, there were people visiting the West Corridor Hall, and Xiao Huajing was basically there to accompany her.

Xiaohuajing has reached an agreement with the empress, as long as someone visits Xinuan Hall, the empress will never summon Xiaohuajing again.

Because when ladies come to visit Ma Shangxiang, they will first meet the empress.

In case something happens, let Nanny Qi deliver the message in person.

Then, the moth came out.

This day is the end of May.

The third prince, mother and concubine, and concubine Shu of the East Palace came to visit Ma Shangxiang.

Although Xiao Huajing didn't search her body, she smelled the mixed scent of lotus leaves and motherwort from the nuns next to Concubine Shu.

Xiao Hua mentally checks, but only sees lotus money tea, but no Motherwort.

It should be that motherwort powder has been infiltrated into lotus money tea.

If it was mixed into the tea, although Ma Shangxiang would not have a miscarriage, it would cause fetal gas.

Fortunately, when Ma Shangxiang entertains guests, he only makes tea for the guests, and his own tea is just for display, and never touches his mouth.

This is the queen's experience, lest others make trouble on the spot.

Xiaohuajing is because she is a Taoist cultivator, and Taoism pays attention to cause and effect, and never kills innocent people indiscriminately.

The empress can actually use Ma Shangxiang as a bait to kill all the invading enemies.

However, the empress was reluctant to use Ma Shangxiang as bait.

One is that she has no biological son, no matter which prince is the emperor, she is the empress dowager.

She doesn't need to deal with any concubines, she just needs to save her own life, and changing the dynasty alive is victory.

The emperor can depose the queen, but not the queen mother.

Secondly, Ma Shangxiang did something to her.

She didn't want Ma Shangxiang to suffer any harm.

She is 20 years younger than the emperor, and she will live in the harem in the future, so she needs a confidant.

Ma Shangxiang is this person.

Although Xiao Huajing doesn't know why the empress is just Xu Feng, and no matter what the reason is for the empress, she accepts her suggestion.

Xiao Huajing felt that the queen was qualified to be the mother of the world.

But it is said that Concubine Rong and Ma Shangxiang saluted and sat opposite each other.

As soon as the tea was put on the table, a court lady came to spread the word, saying that the empress had summoned the little flower essence.

Ma Shangxiang didn't want Xiao Huajing to leave, so she was a little nervous.

Xiao Huajing blinked at her, and then asked the maid: "Aren't you in charge of flowers and plants?"

This Zhou Li was dispatched by Si Wan Si Te of the Shang Shi Bureau to manage the flowers and plants for the empress.

She would never see the empress at all, let alone deliver a message for the empress.

Zhou Li said: "The servant girl is indeed a female servant who waits on the flowers and plants. The empress did not let the servant girl pass the message, but the maidservant sister Zhou Ying who was in front of the queen ordered the servant girl to pass the message."

Zhou Ying was indeed the tea serving lady in front of the empress.

Xiao Huajing said: "You go and tell Miss Zhou that I have to take care of Concubine Shu, and I can't leave for a while. If you have anything to say, let Miss Zhou come in person."

Zhou Li went and turned around for a while, panicked: "Miss Zhou said that the slaves have misunderstood, the empress only told me that the empress took Fu Shanggong to Changchun Palace, and the empress Xian was ill."

Xiao Huajing waved her hand: "Everyone in the palace takes their own responsibilities, you are Si Wansi's female secretary, just take care of the flowers and plants, don't spread the word for others.

It's no fun to convey the wrong Yizhi. "

Zhou Li turned pale with fright.

Concubine Shu left, Xiao Huajing immediately reported Concubine Shu's change to the queen.

The empress sighed: "Zhou Ying has been with me for six years, and I think I treat her well..."

Nanny Qi was annoyed: "Why didn't Lord Si Yan find out her lotus money tea, report it to His Majesty, and let Zhou Ying, a white-eyed wolf, confront them?"

Xiao Huajing smiled and was about to answer.

But the queen took the lead: "She didn't take it out, and after searching it, you can tell that it was prepared for herself.

And a slave with tea has nothing to do with the master.

The third prince is full of poetic talent, refined and handsome, His Majesty likes him very much.Just because the servants around Concubine Shu carry motherwort, they can't move her down at all, and I will be misunderstood and jealous by others, and deliberately framed her. This lawsuit is not worth the candle.

Furthermore, Chengqian Palace is not only home to Concubine Shu.

This is the safest way for Jia Siyan to deal with it. "

Xiao Huajing analyzed: "If they are really harmful to others, they should show their feet on Zhou Li."

The Empress said, "Send someone to watch the whistle immediately."

But Xiao Huajing said: "The empress's people here are familiar with Zhou Ying, it is estimated that the thieves will not do anything in Kunning Palace, even if they silence them, it will cause an accident.

Weichen will send someone to watch her. "

That night, Zhou Li was thrown into the koi pond in the imperial garden.

The old turtle secretly rescued the man and hid him in the cold palace.

The cold palace is remote, and it has basically been disused. The empresses who made mistakes have gone crazy and happened to be Tibetans.

Zhou Li soberly identified that it was Zhou Ying who asked her to meet in the Imperial Garden.

Then, what I saw were two servants who I didn't recognize.

Her mouth was covered and she was knocked unconscious.

Zhou Ying must have a problem.

Once Zhou Ying got involved in the murder of the emperor's heir, Zhou Li got involved, and regardless of the death penalty, she would be assigned to the Huanyi Bureau to work as a coolie.

Thanks to Ma Shangxiang, the woman is safe.

Zhou Li hovered on the verge of death, trembling all over with fright, and kowtowed to Xiao Huajing to show her loyalty: "This servant kowtows to thank you for saving your life, and this servant is willing to work for you."

Xiao Huajing said: "You are the florist of Kunning Palace, you and I are both working for the Empress."

Zhou Li disappeared, but there was no news from the palace.

Zhou Ying panicked.

Three days later, she made an appointment to meet the nanny in charge of Chengqian Palace, the one who was wearing lotus money tea that day.

Zhou Ying was full of anxiety, and she wanted to ask Zhou Li whether she was dead or not.

She thought she was very important, but she didn't know that once she failed, she was already an abandoned child.

When she entered the imperial garden, she was bound and knocked unconscious.

Xiaohuajing kept staring at her.

This time the role of the guard leader came out.

When Zhou Ying was thrown into the koi pond, he happened to be met by patrolling guards.

The two murderers were also caught.

Knowing that he would die, the murderer wanted to bite his tongue to commit suicide, but was beaten unconscious by the guards.

The servants in the palace were under the supervision of Si Li, and the guards immediately escorted the murderer to the Si Li Supervisor.

Dai Quan, the eunuch with the handprint of the chief of ceremonies, learned that his servant had assassinated the tea-serving female official of Kunning Palace, so he dared not be cautious and interrogated overnight.

Xiaohuajing reported to the queen immediately.

The queen sent Kou Gongzheng to participate in the interrogation, and sent Xiao Huajing as her mouthpiece to supervise.

Fortunately, Xiao Huajing went to the Rites Supervisor, and after the two murderers came to their senses, they tried to die again.

An eunuch wanted to bite his tongue, but Xiao Huajing stuffed a stick into his mouth with quick eyesight and quick hands.

As a result, he didn't bite off his tongue, but broke his teeth.

Another eunuch wanted to bump into a pillar, but was also tripped by Xiao Huajing.

Dai Quan was dumbfounded.

He actually hoped that the eunuch was dead and that it would be over once and for all.

At most, he would be punished, which is better than being schemed against by the empress and the prince in the harem every day.

These two eunuchs are the coolie eunuchs of the Salary Department.

Eunuchs are originally hard-working people, and the coolie eunuchs of the Salary Department are the most unpromising eunuchs.

They are most likely to take risks for power and money.

Every year, people die in the palace, eunuchs and maids, even concubines and empresses.

Kunning Palace is the least threatening palace in the imperial palace.

For many years, this was the first time someone had murdered a maid of Kunning Palace, and the purpose was self-evident.

There is one more Ma Jieyu in Kunning Palace.
