Empress, she wins by eating melons and laying down in the harem

Chapter 141
"And this?" Shao Nianqing thought, it's all right, how could the tree wither?
On the first day of Jinwang and Wangfei's long journey, is it heralding something?
Knowing that it's a big deal, don't argue with anyone, and before leaving, she still reminded Ming Sixuan, "Keep your mouth shut and say what you shouldn't say, it's not as simple as death!"

Shao Nianqing left behind these words, and quickly left with the servant girl.

Ming Sixuan was frightened and didn't speak for a long time. When Shao Nianqing walked away, she winked playfully at Shi Qiuxin.

"You, thank you for your wit, otherwise you will be punished today." Shi Qiuxin sighed for a while. Shao Nianqing's sudden arrival should not be a good thing. Fortunately, Ming Sixuan interrupted him. Thinking of this, he asked again, "How do you know about the Jiuyang Garden?" Are the trees dead?"

Ming Sixuan was very proud, "I've been holding back for the past few days. I took advantage of the night to get some air. I didn't expect Yang Biyun and Gu Ling to talk about it, so I heard it."

"How can a beautiful tree wither?" Shi Qiuxin asked.

"Who knows?" Ming Sixuan said, poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, sat on the chair casually, and asked, "Sister Shi, why did Mrs. Shao come here suddenly?"

"I don't know." Shi Qiuxin also felt strange.

Here, Shao Nianqing brought his maid to Jiuyang Garden.

Seeing the dead trees all over the yard, I thought of Tang Xiaoyue dying in prison.

Could it be that there was grievance in Tang Xiaoyue's death?

After death, Tang Xiaoyue was unwilling to turn into a ghost and make these noises?
Do not!
Shao Nianqing quickly dismissed the idea.

Who is Tang Xiaoyue, she knows in her heart that someone deliberately used this to make a fuss today.

Who?
How dare you make such noise on the first day the prince and concubine left?
Just as he was thinking, Butler Hu arrived.

Seeing a yard of dead trees, I was shocked.

He and Shao Nianqing had the same thoughts.

Stepping forward to salute, "Mrs. Shao?"

"Housekeeper Hu, what do you think about this?" The entire backyard, King Jin and Princess Wang, were in her hands, and she would do her best to maintain the peace of the backyard.

Whoever dares to make trouble, she will definitely skin her!
When Housekeeper Hu heard about this, he knew something was wrong, and quickly blamed it, "Jiuyang Garden has not been lived in for a long time. Not long ago, Qingdai and Yudai gave away all the things here. They said it was bad luck, maybe these trees are also because of it?"

Big things turned into small things, and small things turned into small things. The young masters here are all dead, and all the furniture has been evacuated. It is useless to keep these trees, so I took the opportunity to cut them down and use them as firewood!
Shao Nianqing could see what Butler Hu was thinking, so he could investigate this matter secretly.

Gladly accepted Butler Hu's suggestion, let him handle the matter, and returned to Yujing Garden by himself.

Just after entering the door and sitting down, Chun Yu brought tea.

Shao Nianqing took a sip and said, "Do you have something to say?"

Chun Yu immediately said, "This servant thinks that the tree in Jiuyang Garden was intentional."

"Oh?"

"Someone must have seen the prince and concubine leave and made things difficult for Madam," Chun Yu said.

Shao Nianqing felt that this made sense.

King Jin and Princess Wang are gone and won't be back for a short time. Some people took the opportunity to make trouble and make things difficult for themselves.

Some people have forgotten that King Jin and Concubine Wang have all the power of life and death in the backyard to themselves, and her current status can dispose of a concubine at will.

"You let all the young masters come to my side!"

"Yes." Chun Yu left in response.

Shao Nianqing's appeal was very strong, and it didn't take long for the room to be full of people.

Shao Nianqing was the first to ask Ming Sixuan, and soon the question came to Yang Biyun and Gu Ling.

Gu Ling was frightened by Shao Nianqing. When questioned, he trembled and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Yang Biyun was much calmer, saying that she overheard the maid, because she seldom came out, so she didn't know it was the maid in the yard.

This matter seems to have been said, but it seems not to be said.

Shao Nianqing got angry and slapped the table, "Are you playing Madam Ben like a monkey?"

Yang Biyun knelt on the ground in fright.

The concubines next to her were too scared to speak out.

Shao Nianqing pointed to Gu Ling and asked, "Say it!"

"The servant couldn't talk in the middle of the night, so he went for a stroll in the yard, somehow he came to Jiuyang Garden, saw the dead trees all over the yard, and the sound of women crying, the servant thought that."

Yang Biyun looked at Gu Ling in disbelief, and waited until she finished speaking, then looked at Gu Ling unwillingly.

She couldn't believe it, but the person who deliberately pushed the matter to her eyes was actually her trusted good sister.

Shao Nianqing didn't care about their thoughts, and asked Gu Ling, "Why did you do this?"

"The maidservant doesn't know what Madam is talking about?"

"The dead tree, the sound of the woman crying, are you responsible for it?" Shao Nianqing said.

"Madam suspects me?"

Shao Nianqing didn't speak, and soon the spring rain came, throwing a ball of white clothes on the ground.

Seeing this, Gu Ling was immediately discouraged, "I admit that I did it, but I didn't do that dead tree."

"Since it's man-made, there will naturally be traces. You might as well leave this matter to Gu Ling, and you'll be out for two days. Be sure to give everyone an explanation."

Gu Nianqing's operation shocked everyone.

Things got a general idea, those who had something to do started to get busy, and those who had nothing to do left. When the house returned to the usual quietness, Chun Yu came to Shao Nianqing.

"Ma'am, how did you know Gu Ling did it?"

"Guess." Shao Nianqing said so, thinking in his heart, he was indeed hit by Yu Dai's suggestion, the prince and concubine had just left, and Yang Biyun started to make trouble.

Chu palace.

The king of Chu left, and the princess of Chu supported the palace abruptly.

At the funeral of King Chu, many people were buried with him, which is the rule of Chen State.

As the eldest son of the emperor, King Chu is no exception.

After taking care of King Chu's funeral, Princess Chu secretly gave a sum of money to each of the concubines who were supposed to be buried with her, and let them leave.

When leaving, everyone was grateful to Princess Chu for her kindness. Not only did they not let them be buried with them, but they also gave them freedom. Maybe the days to come will be more tiring, and it is better to be buried with them!

Thinking about their current wealth, if they find an honest man, they can live a lifetime without worrying about food and drink.

Who doesn't yearn for a better future.

Because the King of Chu passed away, many people were buried with him in the Prince Chu's mansion. Many people died and many people were sent away. The Princess Chu sold some maidservants because she didn't have many masters to serve her.

Princess Chu thought about Steward Zhang's hard work for the Prince of Chu's house all his life, and Princess Chu gave him a sum of money to go home for the elderly.

The entire Chu Palace is full of people trusted by Princess Chu.

Those who had problems were buried with the King of Chu.

The current Chu Palace is completely decided by Princess Chu.

Finally finished some things, the arrival of a child broke the current silence.

Yu'er came to her with the handwriting she had just written, "Mother, look at what I wrote!"

Princess Chu picked up the child's handwriting, looked at it carefully, and was very relieved, "The more Yu'er writes, the better."

Because Yu'er was praised by Princess Chu, she was very happy, with a happy smile on her face.

When Princess Chu saw it, she signaled the servant girl to prepare a bigger meal.

Gu Yan and Mao Yue knew what Princess Chu was thinking, and tried their best to make the meal rich.

During the meal, Princess Chu paid extra attention, halfway through the meal, Yu'er lay on the table and fell asleep.

Princess Liu Chu looked at Gu Yan, "Are you sure that family is okay?"

"Back to Wangfei, that family is well-off and has never had children. Master Yu'er will not be wronged when he goes there."

Princess Chu nodded, "Send it!"

Gu Yan picked up the child and left in the dark.

Princess Chu asked Mao Yue to burn everything about Yu'er.

This time when Yu'er leaves, he will forget everything about the past and start over.

She originally planned to kill the child to avoid future troubles, but in the end she couldn't bear it.

Princess Chu thought a lot, and Mao Yue didn't bother with what Princess Chu had told her, so she came to serve her.

Princess Chu thinks that Gu Yan has been away for too long, and there is no movement until now?
There is a sense of uneasiness in my heart.

Just as he was thinking, Gu Yan came back from the outside.

"Why did you go there for so long?" Princess Chu asked.

Gu Yan took a careful look at Princess Chu, lowered her head slightly, "The family who came to pick you up came a little later."

Princess Chu didn't care when she heard this.

Gu Yan saw that Princess Chu had no doubts, and she was a little afraid to face Princess Chu.

In fact, the child was snatched away by General Hussar's guards. She chased him for a while but failed to catch up. Now she doesn't know if Yu'er is dead or alive.
