famous eldest daughter

Chapter 558 Powder
A long and thick breath came out of Concubine Hui's nose. With this breath, the expression on her face improved slightly.

"Since entering the palace, Concubine Tong and I have been close friends. I discovered the secret of this bracelet here, so I naturally wanted to remind her. At that time, she and I were not in high status and power. In order to prevent the queen from becoming suspicious, we only gave the bracelet to her. I picked out the musk from the round beads, and I still wore this bracelet every day. It wasn't until I gave birth to Yu'er safely, made His Majesty happy, and rewarded him with a bracelet, that I replaced the bracelet."

Concubine Hui said it in an understatement, but Gu Yuqing could understand how frightened Concubine Hui lived every day before Xiao Yu was born.

In the dark, the queen is watching eagerly, and in the light, there is the bracelet.

Although the musk has been removed, it is still something that has been soaked in the aroma of musk. If she can wear it safely, Gu Yuqing will never believe it.

Because I can feel it, the pain and distress in my heart are even greater.

By the time Xiao Yu was born and Concubine Hui had not yet secured her position, mother and son would probably be in turmoil day and night.

No wonder Xiao Yu would act so uneducated and unskilled later!

When she thought of Xiao Yu being like this all these years, everything she did was for self-protection and for a breath of life, Gu Yuqing's heart felt as if thousands of needles as thin as ox hair were pricked down, and the pain made her heart tremble.

Concubine Hui finished her words and paused briefly. The look in her eyes gradually faded away like thick fog blown away by the wind. She smiled at the corner of her mouth and said to Gu Yuqing: "Although that bracelet is an old thing for more than ten years, in the end It's been soaked in musk, so you must not touch it."

Gu Yuqing understood Concubine Hui's worry and uneasiness, and immediately nodded, "I know, don't worry, Madam. It's just that this thing is obviously more than ten years old. Why did Concubine Tong dig it out again?" Gu Yuqing didn't hide her doubts. to say.

Between her and Concubine Hui, except that she was a reborn person, there was no secret that could not be told.

Especially those involving life and death.

Even if Concubine Hui doesn't talk about the things in the palace, she also understands that even if it's just a sesame-sized thing, behind it, there may be a hideous truth that has long been rotten, festered, oozing with pus and infested with maggots.

Concubine Hui shook her head, a layer of confusion appeared in her eyes, showing her confusion.

Gu Yuqing then said: "Also, just now Concubine Tong said that the milk here is different from the milk from other places. Why did the queen's expression change so much? But what's wrong with this milk?"

"I didn't hide it from you!" Concubine Hui was stunned when she heard this, and then smiled, but that smile contained a cold breath, which was heart-warming.

"In this palace, no one can drink milk except me, that is, the queen and the queen mother. But she said that the milk here tastes better than the milk from other places. Think about it, where should the milk from her side be? ?”

Gu Yuqing was stunned when he heard this. No wonder Concubine Hui immediately looked strange!
What Concubine Tong said must be the queen's place.

The Queen and Concubine Hui are open enemies. As a close friend of Concubine Hui, Concubine Tong drank the milk from the Queen...

If it was just an ordinary greeting or a provocation from the queen, and he came to her, he would definitely not entertain her with milk.

The fact that she could drink enough milk showed that, at least at the moment she drank it, she and the queen were allies.

When thinking about this, Gu Yuqing's face suddenly turned cold, and his eyes became filled with horror.

Could it be that Concubine Tong...

Seeing Gu Yuqing like this, Concubine Hui had a helpless smile on her lips, "I didn't want to tell you at first, but the evil methods in this palace are really disgusting and heart-shaking. I have to meet the Queen later, and after the banquet Now, I'm afraid that you will do something that will harm your strength because of your loss of emotional control."

After saying that, Concubine Hui sighed softly, "But we ignored that our Ah Qing is so smart. I didn't tell you, but you could have seen the clues."

Gu Yuqing's heart was filled with emotion when he heard the words "our Ah Qing".

Us, Ah Qing!
"Well, if that's the case, you can also help me analyze it. Why do you think Concubine Tong went to the Queen's place?"

Gu Yuqing thought for a moment, but did not answer Concubine Hui's question. Instead, she turned her head and wanted to reach out and ask for the bracelet back.

Seeing her holding the bracelet in her hand, Concubine Hui's expression suddenly changed, "You kid, why are you touching it..." Nervousness emerged spontaneously.

Gu Yuqing only said: "My Majesty, would you like to see if, after decades, the beads that were cleaned back then are filled with new things now?" He smiled and looked directly at Concubine Hui. past.

Concubine Hui was startled and immediately understood what Gu Yuqing meant. She immediately took a breath, stood up, almost walked to Gu Yuqing in two steps, and snatched the bracelet from his hand, "You kid, you are obviously suspicious. , and you still want to hold it in your hand. If you don’t mind it, I won’t worry!”

After saying that, he turned around and handed the bracelet to the maid on the side, and ordered: "Open the bead." After saying that, he sat down again and glared at Gu Yuqing, "This kind of thing cannot be done carelessly. I am waiting to have a grandson. of."

Gu Yuqing...

Madam, we are discussing such a serious issue, and you suddenly say something like this, is it really okay?

Although the beads on the bracelet look round and seamless, if you look closely, you can see that there are very small and very small gaps. The palace maid is ingenious and uses skill to open one of them. .

As soon as she opened it, her face suddenly changed, "Your Majesty!" She presented the bead that she had split into two halves to Concubine Hui.

Gu Yuqing leaned forward slightly and looked over.

The bead contained light yellow powder, which emitted a pungent smell as it was exposed.

Concubine Tong and the queen both knew the meaning of the bracelet when the queen gave it to Concubine Tong. However, after more than ten years, she suddenly turned it out and put it on, which was not normal.

Coupled with the milk incident mentioned by Concubine Hui, Gu Yuqing suddenly felt that the bracelet was even more fishy.

as predicted!

Just based on the taste and color, Gu Yuqing couldn't determine what this powder was. "Your Majesty..."

Concubine Hui's eyes narrowed the moment she saw the powder, her face tightened, and every strand of skin was filled with unspeakable anger!

That was the person she had been friends with for more than ten years!

Even though she had said something about milk just now, she was just suspicious, thinking that she might have to give in to the queen in order to save the fetus in her belly, but she never thought that Concubine Tong would use tricks on her.

She actually used her methods on the people she cared about the most.

She regards Xiao Yu as her fate, Gu Yuqing is Xiao Yu's quasi-princess, and Concubine Hui treats Gu Yuqing equally.

The anger in her heart was completely aroused, and Concubine Hui's hand holding the handkerchief made a squeaking sound.

In this palace, it is true that people still know each other well but not their hearts. After all, she is also... careless. How can there be true friendship in this world.

She was naive.

From the day she entered the palace, she should have understood that in this life, she will have no friends except the one who lives in Prince Pingxi's mansion!
