[Red House] Harem Road in Spring

"Zhang Xiu, please enter the palace." The maid repeated again.

Zhang Xiunv's eyes flickered, as if holding back the tears that were about to fall, she asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to ask the Xiunv involved?"

Zhang Xiunv didn't say the second half of the sentence, but who here is not human, and who can't understand Zhang Xiunv's words?What she meant was that Zhao Xiunv was the person involved, so she should ask Zhao Xiunv.

And she, no!

"Everyone involved in this case is involved, may I ask if this case has something to do with Zhang Xiunv?" The palace man said politely, but the meaning in his words was very strong.

If Zhang Xiunv dared to say that it had nothing to do with her, she would dare to go in and report that the empress was not the one who was dumped. Knowledge of current affairs, to put it bluntly, is nothing but grass on the wall, and the master in the palace is the worst thing to see.

Unless you want to muddle along, otherwise, as a palace man, please clearly state your position.

Mrs. Zhang stared at the questioning lady, as if she wanted to see the person's face clearly, and the questioning lady waited for an answer without blinking her eyes.

Seeing that the maid was indifferent, Zhang's eyes became more and more aggrieved, and then he lowered his head and walked into the hall.

Above the main hall, before Yingchun could speak, the palace servants who came in knelt down on the ground and said, "Miss Zhao, the daughter of the people, kowtowed to the empress."

"Well, if you have anything to say, wait until I finish asking Mrs. Zhang, and I will allow you to decide for yourself." Yingchun said.

"Minister, thank you Empress for your kindness." Mrs. Zhao said hastily.

This daughter of the Zhao family is very good-looking, and she is pleasing to the eye, and her actions are well-behaved, and it is not bad to be selected into the palace, but it is a pity!

"Why don't you see Zhang Xiunv?" Yingchun asked in an unhappy tone.

Sometimes, the joy and anger in a person's tone is not because she is not good at hiding her emotions, but because she doesn't need to hide her emotions, just like Yingchun at the moment.

Zhang's daughter stepped into the hall, and when she heard the queen's questioning question, her face turned pale, and with the support of her two beautiful daughters, she hurried forward and said, "Minister Zhang, see the empress, the people The girl is late, and I ask the empress to write a letter of forgiveness."

The difference can be seen from here, Zhao's daughter performed the kneeling salute, while Zhang's daughter, for her injured, even though kneeling was easier than curtseying, she insisted on choosing the latter.

However, I don't know why, maybe it's a guilty conscience, maybe it's a mistake today, no matter how strict Zhang's daughter is with her demeanor, Yingchun can see a sense of trepidation from her.

Yingchun doesn't care. Today, if Zhang's family is lucky enough to enter the palace, if she wants to take the position of concubine, she must offer tea and pay respects to her as a queen; I want to enter the palace.

Yingchun almost got ridiculed, Zhang's daughter was making such a big deal outside the palace, could it be possible that standing in front of her, the queen, realized that the show she made outside the palace violated the queen's taboo?The reflex arc is not usually long!

"Get up, tell me in detail what happened today." Yingchun said lightly.

Mrs. Zhang bit her lip. When she stood up, her body swayed, as if she was unsteady, but no one in the hall took the opportunity to ask why, and no one said anything to give her a seat. Now, Mrs. Zhang really wants to bite Broke his lips.

There was a sarcasm in Zhao's eyes who was kneeling on one side, Zhang still thought it was their Zhang family, would anyone want to accommodate her?

"Yes"

"The Minnv saw that the younger sister of the Zhao family was acting erratically, and was worried that she would offend the nobles in the palace, so she kindly persuaded her a few words. Maybe the Minnv could not speak, and she provoked the younger sister of the Zhao family to push people. The Minnv was unprepared and was caught Pushed to the ground and grazed his arm, broke his ankle."

I can't speak, but I can speak!

"Zhao Shi, what do you say?" Yingchun asked.

"I would like to report to the empress, what Zhang Xiunv said is avoiding the important, and the reason is not that the women are acting out of the way, but that the women are quite happy about entering the palace draft, because they feel that the emperor Long En and the empress Hong Fu are all responsible for entering the palace. , and it is the blessing that Minnv has cultivated for several generations, so Minnv is not aware of her face, but who knows, and she doesn't know what hindered Ms. Zhang's eyes, and said that Minnv's father admired wealth and honor, and sold his daughter for glory... "

Zhao's tears came as soon as she said it, and crying was very pleasing to the eye.

"Your Majesty, there are no civilian girls..." Zhang's daughter hurriedly wanted to defend herself, but Yingchun's displeased eyes swept over her, forcing Zhang to shut up.

"What the hell are you talking about? Mrs. Zhao will naturally give you time to defend yourself after speaking." Yingchun scolded.

Interrupting indiscriminately is a very uneducated expression, and Mrs. Zhang blushed when she was pointed out.

"Zhao, you continue to talk." Yingchun said.

"Yes" Zhao Xiunv answered and continued, "I don't know why Ms. Zhang thinks that such a big happy event to be selected as a show girl is to sell a girl for glory, talking like some kind of tiger and wolf den in the palace; The daughter's father has always been loyal to the king and cared about his children. How dare the minnv let people slander the minnv's father so much? He was so angry that he went forward to argue with Miss Zhang. I don't know why. Minnv hadn't met Miss Zhang yet. The girl suddenly fell to the ground."

"Mr. Zhang, is what Mr. Zhao said false?" Yingchun asked.

"The Queen's Majesty is here." Zhang said.

"speak"

"Zhao's slander of Minnv, Minnv has never said that Miss Zhao's father loves wealth and honor, and sells her daughter for glory, and she has never realized that it is not good in the palace. No matter what Minnv said or what Zhao did, many people have seen it." Zhang Xiunv said.

"Mr. Zhao, tell me what Mr. Zhang said." Yingchun said.

"Yes, Mrs. Zhang said, 'In my own home, it is most comfortable to be pampered by my parents and brothers. I am a little rich, but I have to sacrifice too much when I look at the prosperity. Sister Zhao is beautiful. I heard that your father has not been promoted for many years. , you...' She also said, '...'"

Zhao Xiunv had a good memory, and said everything Zhang said, and imitated the tone.

It is true that every sentence of Mrs. Zhang did not clearly state the right and wrong of the imperial palace, nor did she clearly state that the Zhao family sold their daughters for glory, but combined with her context and tone of voice, the whole story was about being proud of her prominent family background and her family. The elders loved her very much and couldn't bear to let her enter the palace. Unlike the Zhao family, Father Zhao's official position had not been promoted for many years, and it happened that the Zhao family was good-looking, so after entering the palace, they might not be able to help Father Zhao.

In Zhang's words, it not only reflects the broad and profound Chinese language, but also interprets the wonderful use of tone.

Mrs. Zhang probably didn't expect Mrs. Zhao to learn so vividly, or maybe she didn't realize that her tone of voice was so obvious when she spoke.

Seeing Mrs. Zhang's face, Yingchun knew what Mrs. Zhao said was true, and Mrs. Zhang really said so in public.

"Declaration of witnesses." Yingchun said.

Many things, although what you see with your own eyes may not be true, but you can also see the essence through the phenomenon, right?

After the palace man went out, he took several beautiful girls into the palace.

"The daughter of the people sees the empress."

"Free of ceremony" Yingchun said, to witnesses, Yingchun is still very gentle.

"Thank you queen"

Without Yingchun's signal, Xiuju knew what to do next.

"All the show girls, were you there when Zhang Xiunv and Zhao Xiunv clashed?" Xiuju asked.

Xiuju and the others who have experienced many times with Yingchun can now stand alone.

Several beautiful girls looked at each other, with some hesitation in their expressions, as if they were afraid of getting into trouble.

"All the beautiful girls, please tell the truth, and never lie, otherwise, the consequences of slandering other beautiful girls in the palace, or giving false testimony, will be very serious. All the beautiful girls definitely don't want to see the result."

Seeing that the Xiu girls present listened to what she said, Xiuju was very satisfied, and then said, "Excuse me, all the show girls, were you there when Zhang Xiunv and Zhao Xiunv had a conflict?"

"Minnv and others are present." The Xiunv replied quickly.

"Did you hear them talking and see them fighting?" Xiuju then asked.

"I saw it, and I heard it too." The show girls replied again.

"Zhao Xiunv, please repeat the conversation between you and Zhang Xiunv." Xiuju said.

Zhao Xiunv said, "Yes"

……

What Zhao Xiunv said the second time was exactly the same as the first time.

"Everyone, what Zhao Xiunv said is different from what you heard?" Xiuju asked.

Several beautiful girls looked at each other, and said with fear in their eyes, "No."

Then, Yingchun saw that Mrs. Zhang's complexion was a little ugly, while Mrs. Zhao's expression was much more relaxed.

"Can you see how Zhang Xiunv fell down?" Xiuju asked again.

After all the show girls looked at each other, one of them replied, "After Zhang Xiunv finished speaking, Zhao Xiunv walked towards Zhang Xiunv a little angrily, and then Minnv saw Zhang Xiunv fall to the ground."

"Did you not see Zhao Xiunv stretching out her hand to push someone?" Xiuju asked.

"Yes, because Zhao Xiunv happened to have her back facing Minnv at that time."

"What about you?" Xiuju asked the others.

"Minnv also didn't see how Zhang Xiunv fell down."

"National girls too"

Of the five show girls present, three of them saw Zhang Xiunv fall and saw Zhao Xiunv walking towards Zhang Xiunv, but they didn't see whether Zhao Xiunv made a move.

"What about the two of you?" Xiuju asked.

"Minnv is on the side, so I saw Zhao Xiunv reaching out her hand."

"Yes, Minnv saw it too."

Yingchun looked at Mrs. Zhao, and Zhao Xiunv quickly said, "Mother, the minnv was a little excited because she was slandered, and the minnv also admitted that she reached out her hand, but the minnv fell to the ground before she touched her. This is obviously Zhang's frame for Minnv.

Minnv still has something to say. Mrs. Zhang said that because Minnv pushed her, she fell and bruised her arm and sprained her foot. However, after the nanny announced the imperial physician, the imperial physician did not prescribe any medicine for Zhang, but only said that she used a cloth to compress it. After a while, she was fine the next day. How could such minor sprains and bruises be caused by being pushed behind? It was clear that she deliberately fell and blamed the girl. "

Looking at the different expressions of the people below, Yingchun said, "Did you reach out to Zhang Xiunv?"

"Yes, but a girl..." Mrs. Zhao wanted to defend herself.

"Your personality is out of character, not suitable for the palace, go out of the palace!" Yingchun said.

Mrs. Zhao's body was weak, and she was a little desperate. She still remembered that during the primary election, the Queen Empress praised her for her good looks, and she also wanted to enter the Palace Expo to become rich.

But right now, everything is in vain.

But Mrs. Zhao also knows that the Empress is merciful in her treatment of her, saying that she is out of character and is not suitable for the palace. Although it is embarrassing, she has not blocked her way out of the palace. Beating someone, even if she can get out of the palace, she is afraid that she will be useless for the rest of her life.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but hate Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang, is she the only smart person in the world and everyone else is stupid?

Why did you find her, and why did you say those specious things? I didn't understand at the time, but afterward, I knew that it was nothing more than that she felt that the reputation she had managed outside the palace was a bit inappropriate, and she wanted to rebuild her own image. What? She is free outside the palace, loved by the elders at home, isn't she just trying to create an image that she is not rushing to enter the palace?It just so happened that she had an outstanding color and was expected to enter the palace, so she was chosen as the raft, which not only established the image but also ruled out potential enemies, it was really hateful!

Moreover, it was said that she was pushed to the point of injury, but she was afraid that the injury would seriously affect her choice, and all she needed to control the injury would be cured with cold compresses.

"Minister, thank you Empress for your forgiveness." In any case, since she couldn't stand the excitement, she lost, but Mrs. Zhang, if she dares to borrow others to build her image, then don't blame her for tearing it down!
