[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle

The sky is slightly bright, and the bright moon is still hanging high in the sky.

Shenjiao has been very lethargic since she was pregnant. If she doesn't sleep well, she will be even more frightened when she wakes up.Therefore, after Lin Qing woke up before going to bed during these days, he really realized what it means to be with a king like a tiger, and he didn't dare to provoke Shen Jiao easily.

At this moment, Zi Shenjiao was sleeping soundly, but she felt that someone was pushing her gently, and she was about to get angry instinctively. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her eyes, Lin Qing's face appeared above her.

Can't help sullen, "What are you doing? What are you pushing me to do!"

Lin Qing was helpless: "Ying'er, don't be angry. It's not that I want to push you, but someone from the palace came to see you by name."

Shenjiao suppressed his anger and looked out of the window suspiciously, "It's still dark, what are people from the palace doing?"

"I don't know either. I didn't want to disturb your sleep, but the attendant must have an interview with you."

Shen Jiao sighed slightly, "Then get up first, so as not to make people wait for a long time."

Seeing this, Lin Qing hurriedly helped Shen Jiao change her clothes. Before Shen Jiao left, she asked Lin Qing, "Did he say that some nobleman in the palace sent him here?"

"That's not true." Lin Qing frowned, "The attendant only said that he had something important to meet with you. I saw that he was dressed like an old man in the palace, and he looked like an old man in the palace. You have grown up in the palace since you were young. Da, go to see him in person and everything will be clear."

……

After a while, Shen Jiao returned to the room, looking a little anxious, and ordered someone to open a big thick box as soon as he entered the door.

Lin Qing hurriedly asked: "How? Is that person leaving?"

Shenjiao was a little impatient, "No. Wait outside."

After speaking, the box was opened, and Shen Jiao hurried over to search for it himself, as if he was looking for something.

"What are you looking for? Isn't that person still waiting? It would be rude to leave him outside alone..."

Shen Jiao ignored Lin Qing's nagging, frowned and focused on tossing around in the box. Finally, Shen Jiao took out a small red box the size of a palm from the bottom of the box.

The frowning eyebrows finally relaxed, and Shen Jiao let out a sigh of relief.

Lin Qing saw a dense layer of sweat on Shen Jiao's forehead, and was about to wipe her off, but was pushed away by Shen Jiao, and then went straight to the hall, leaving Lin Qing standing there alone at a loss.

After a while, Shen Jiao leisurely returned to the room, seeing Lin Qingshen sitting on a chair alone drinking tea, a little funny, "What? Angry?"

Lin Qing didn't speak, but still drank tea by himself.

Shen Jiao smiled, came behind Lin Qing, squeezed his shoulders, and explained: "The person who just came is from Concubine Kang's side. He is in a hurry to ask for something, so I didn't have time to explain the reason to you."

Lin Qing pulled Shenjiao to him and sighed, "I'm not angry. It's just that what he wants, I will send someone from the palace to get it in person before dawn."

Seeing that Lin Qing was not angry, Shen Jiao said in a much lighter tone, "Hey! Didn't Concubine Kang give me a Wenliang inkstone as a dowry? The attendant said that recently Concubine Kang always dreamed of Empress Dowager Wenhuan, so she wanted to let Xiangguo Temple The presiding officer performed a ceremony for Empress Dowager Wenhuan. This Wenliang Inkstone was originally a relic of the Empress Dowager, and like other relics, it was contaminated with the aura of Empress Dowager Wenhuan during her lifetime, and enshrining these objects is equivalent to enshrining the Empress Dowager herself."

Lin Qing understood, but still felt something was wrong, "How did you determine the identity of that attendant? You can't just say that it must be by the side of Concubine Kang. Besides, this Wenliang inkstone is so precious, even if you want to enshrine it, you don't have to Picking such a time to send someone out of the palace to get it in person, why is there such a rush?"

Shenjiao was a little tired after standing for a long time, so she found a seat and sat down. Hearing this, she gave Lin Qing a blank look, "You think I'm so easy to deceive? That attendant gave me a letter written by Concubine Kang. You can tell that other people's handwriting can be faked, but Concubine Kang's handwriting can't be faked."

"Oh..." Lin Qingqi said, "Why?"

Shen Jiao said with a smile, "This is because Empress Concubine Kang's handwriting was created by Empress Dowager Wenhuan. Although Empress Dowager Wenhuan's handwriting is not as good as everyone else's, it is very unique. The only people in the world who can imitate her handwriting are Gongsun Hengshi is the only Concubine Kang who was taught by the Empress Dowager."

After hearing this, Lin Qing was finally relieved.

Looking out of the window, it was not yet dawn, so he thought about going back to the cage for a while to sleep with Shenjiao, but no sooner did the two of them get into bed, another person came to visit from outside.

Lin Qing told Shen Jiao to lie down in peace, and went to treat him alone.

The person who came was a eunuch in uniform, and judging by the style of the clothes, he was probably a big eunuch.

Lin Qing didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly called the eunuch to sit down.

"I don't know why the father-in-law came here?"

Lin Qing's respectful tone made the eunuch quite useful, he narrowed his baggy triangular eyes, and said in a shrill voice: "The Sa family belongs to the empress, so I came to visit your mansion today for no other reason. I want to borrow something from your lady."

Lin Qing hurriedly asked, "I don't know what kind of thing the father-in-law is talking about? If Zhuo Jing has it in his hand, he must offer it with both hands."

The eunuch smiled contemptuously, rolled his eyes up, and didn't even look at Lin Qing, but Lin Qing didn't realize it, and still smiled flatteringly.

"The thing I want is Wen Liangyan, which is a dowry gift from Concubine Kang to Madam Ling."

Lin Qing felt his heart skip a beat.

Seeing the hesitant look on Lin Qing's face, the eunuch said displeasedly: "I said Master Lin, this is what the empress asked for by name. You are so hesitant, but you don't want to? If that's the case, I'll go to the palace and report to the empress." , don’t make things difficult for you, my lord.”

After all, he made a gesture to get up and leave.

Lin Qing hurriedly held him down, and said with an apologetic smile: "Eunuch, what are you talking about? Since the empress said she wanted it, if we ministers have it, we must offer it with both hands, but..."

The eunuch snorted coldly, "Just what?"

"It's just... oh!" Lin Qing sighed, "It's just that eunuch came a step late, and the Wenliang inkstone has been taken back to the palace by the people around Concubine Kang."

"Crack!" A few drops of tea splashed out of the teacup.

The eunuch slammed the table, stood up abruptly, and said angrily, "When did it happen!"

Lin Qing hurriedly explained: "Just now! He walked on the front foot, and you, father-in-law, came on the back foot."

The eunuch didn't care about putting on airs, he raised his legs and rushed to the door, Lin Qing respectfully greeted him to go out.

By the time the eunuch was sent away, the sky was bright.

Lin Qing stood in place and looked at the direction the carriage was leaving, feeling that something big was going to happen today.

Kunning Palace.

The eunuch hurried to the palace, and the queen was running around in a hurry. When she saw that the man had finally returned, she stepped forward and grabbed him, and asked eagerly, "How is it? Did you get the things?"

The eunuch Ma Liuer prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy loudly, "I'm going to die! As soon as I arrived at the Lin Manor, I was told that the things had been retrieved by someone from Zhongcui Palace."

The queen stomped on the ground a few times and gritted her teeth in the direction of Zhong Cui Palace: "Bitch! After all, she took the lead!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly ordered people to go to Xianfu Palace to invite Xia Xu to come.

Not long after, Xia Xu also hurried to Kunning Palace.

As soon as the queen saw Xia Xu, she couldn't help but threw herself into Xia Xu's arms and cried loudly, her eyes were red and her voice was trembling: "Your Majesty! Fuer's life and death are on the line now, and the imperial doctor sent said that only Wen Liangyan can do it now." Save her life, think of a way! You can't just watch our Fu'er die twice!"

Xia Xu frowned: "Wen Liangyan can only get one for a hundred years, but I know that Princess Nanping has one. It was given to her by Emperor Gaozu in memory of her being the youngest."

The queen seemed to have grasped at straws, grabbed Xia Xu's long and wide sleeves, knelt down at his feet, and begged: "Since this is the case, please order to borrow a warm and cool inkstone from the Nanping Princess Mansion. Fu'er's life and death are unpredictable now. It is our last hope!"

Without hesitation, Xia Xu immediately ordered someone to go to Nanping Princess Mansion.Then he helped the queen up, stared at her firmly, and ordered word by word in an unquestionable tone: "You go to Zhongcui Palace immediately, take off, hairpin, treat, sin!"

"What!" The queen looked at Xia Xu in disbelief, thinking she had heard wrong.

Xia Xu closed her eyes and breathed out a foul breath: "You heard me right. I already know about the Lin family's affairs. In addition to the Nanping Princess Mansion's Wen Liang inkstone, Concubine Kang also has one."

The queen was puzzled, "Since the Princess Nanping's mansion has a piece, why do you still go to Concubine Kang?"

Xia Xu turned her head away, unwilling to take another look at the queen.

"If my guess is correct, there is a high probability that Princess Nanping will put the Wenliang inkstone in the coffin as a funeral object."

"So..." Xia Xu sighed, "If you really want to save Fu'er, the best way is to seek Concubine Kang's forgiveness and make her willingly hand over the Wenliang Inkstone to you. If she doesn't give it to you... I don't either. Method."

The queen suddenly fell to the ground, twitched the corners of her mouth, and smiled wryly.

In the end...it was still defeated by her.

Zhongcui Palace.

"Your Majesty, people have been arranged." Nanny Li whispered in Concubine Kang's ear who hadn't woken up yet.

Concubine Kang said "Yes", then slowly opened her eyes, and under the service of Nanny Li, she began to dress up.

Concubine Kang has never liked to wear bright and bright clothes, she usually wears dark colors like mourning clothes, but today she is fresh, wearing a slightly old, but pink and gorgeous dress, she looks younger than before how old.

Looking at herself in the mirror, who was full of jewels and dressed up, Concubine Kang didn't see any appreciation or joy on her face, her eyes were gloomy and cold, like a poisonous snake, quietly spitting out bright snake letters.

Seeing this, the little maid serving on the side couldn't help shivering: I have never seen such a terrifying empress. Although Concubine Kang is always cold, her eyes have never been so poisonous as they are today.

At this time, the queen had already taken off all the hairpins and beads, let her long hair loose, turned her face to the sky with no makeup on, barefoot, with her chest up and her head held high, she walked towards Zhongcui Palace step by step.

Along the way, countless court ladies and eunuchs lowered their heads, not daring to look at the queen.And the queen, who has always been proud and honorable, even without the blessing of clothing at this moment, still does not lose the demeanor of the mother of the country.
