daughter in power

Chapter 97
Since returning to Xiunvfang, Qiqi has not talked much with outsiders.

Because of the relationship between King Xiaoyang, outsiders seem to have never made things difficult for her.

But how did the purse wrap around her belt, and how did the baby's body fit into it?

If Emperor Wuwei had asked her to present a gift just now, she might not be in the Huanhua Pavilion by now.

She will definitely not even know how she died, and she has already been imprisoned by the queen and put into death row.

Su Xinhe's eyes flickered: "Could it be An Xiunu?"

Qiqi blinked, remembering An Xiunv's gaze in the mirror as she made up her makeup, and shook her head.

An Xiunu has a simple mind, so she shouldn't be the one who framed them.

"People are not judged by their appearance, and sea water is not measured. You are so determined, no wonder you will be hung up in your purse without knowing it."

Su Xinhe teased, after teasing, thinking of herself, she couldn't help but sigh: "Right now, I can only wait and see what happens."

Whether the person who framed them was selected as a show girl is still unknown.

It would be useless to say anything else.

The two sat in the room relatively silent, and outside, Gong'e raised her voice and shouted: "Lady's salute has arrived, everyone hurry up and get it."

Every show girl is accompanied by a maid of honor, who hears the voice and rushes out to salute.

Qiqi sat for a while, then heard the sound of arguing outside.

"Why don't you have my wife's things? Haven't you finished taking them?"

The voice was not low, and all the beautiful women in the Huanhua Pavilion heard it clearly.

Qiqi blinked and looked out the window, just in time to see her attendant, Gong'e, arguing with the visitor.

Startled, she quickly got up and went out.

Gong'e, who brought the luggage, blushed and said, "I've brought them all, how could there be no wife from your family? Don't lie and make me guilty."

This Gong'e looked aggrieved, and Qiqi's attendant Gong'e also felt wronged: "Really not. If you don't believe me, look, there is no Jiang Qiqi's name here."

Qiqi walked to the door, carefully looked at the salutes of the crowd, she did not see her own things.

She gave the attendant a calm look, and then said coldly: "Please trouble girl, it is true that I don't have anything."

That Gong'e's face changed, and she also became anxious: "My lady, forgive me, when I went to Xiunvfang to pick up things, I really didn't see your salute."

She pointed at the car driver: "I really moved everyone's luggage here."

Gong'e was full of astonishment, obviously she did not expect this situation.

Qiqi's face turned cold, maybe it wasn't that the maid hadn't carried the luggage, or that Zhang Yeting had done something wrong.

However, it's fine without her things, anyway, everything in Huanhua Pavilion is complete.

For a while, she was neither hungry nor cold.

It's a pity that the gold and silver jewelry Jiang Maoyou gave her, as well as the silver coins...

It's all in vain.

Her complexion was not good, and the expressions of all the beautiful girls in the yard also changed.

Everyone stood at the door of her house, but no one helped her.

Xiunu's luggage disappeared, whether it was a big deal or a small thing.

Some people really make a fuss about this, so it's not guaranteed to make any noise.

With a cold face, Qiqi didn't want to say any more, so she turned and went back to her room.

Outside the gate, several inner eunuchs came hurriedly.

"Who is Jiang Qiqi?"

Before the inner eunuchs approached, they began to yell loudly.

The voice was quite loud, and all the beautiful women in the courtyard could hear it clearly.

Qiqi turned her head and looked at the full-bodied appearance of the inner eunuchs, she couldn't help feeling bored.

She blinked and waited for them to approach with a stern face.

Several people approached, and the leading eunuch, a short eunuch, sneered, "Your Majesty ordered Jiang Qiqi to accept the order quickly."

All the beautiful girls in the yard craned their necks when they heard the words, wishing they could come closer to listen.

The first edict of Huanhua Pavilion, who knows what to announce, is naturally curious.

Qiqi's expression remained unchanged, and she said coldly, "I am."

The inner eunuch snorted with a half-smile, flew up and kicked her leg, and scolded: "The emperor said, how dare you not kneel?"

Qiqi was startled, looked down at her kicked calf, and raised her eyes in astonishment.

"What do you look at, our family kicked you, that is to think highly of you. I don't know the rules! I will send you to the violence room tomorrow to learn!"

After finishing the sentence, the eunuch didn't intend to talk to her anymore, and put on a serious posture, and began to read the "Emperor Wuwei's Oral Edict".

"Jiang Qiqi, Linshui County, Lizhou Prefecture, Nanzhao Province... It was verified by Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs that Gao Shichong and Jiang Maoyou were not involved in the Nanxiang king's treason case, and the crime of ransacking their homes can be pardoned. However, Before the king of Nanxiang conspired against him, the two of them used to drink and drink with him, and they were too sweet to be entrusted with such a heavy responsibility. Therefore, it is tentatively decided that Gao Shichong demoted his officials to the people and confiscated his resources..."

All kinds of things, the eunuch's memorization is verbatim, all of which fell on Qiqi's ears.

Gao Shichong and Jiang Maoyou finally figured it out.

Gao Shichong was demoted from office to civilian, served in prison for three years, and was fined and confiscated his property.

Jiang Maoyou was dismissed from office, fined 3000 taels of silver, and banned for life.

The family members of Gao and Jiang's family, everything is as usual, and there is no influence.

In this way, Gao Shichong was released from prison for three years, just an ordinary person.

His family members, along with him, became ordinary people.

The Jiang family's crimes were even lighter, and they paid 3000 taels of silver, and they have become idle wealthy households ever since.

Neither Qiqi's mother nor her brother were affected by the case.

This result is really good, compared with other Nanzhao provincial officials, it can be described as heaven and earth.

You know, officials from other families ransacked their homes and wiped out their families in serious cases, and exiled thousands of miles in light cases.

The family members are even demoted to official slaves, and they cannot stand up for generations.

Faced with this ending, Qiqi is already satisfied.

While satisfied, she thought of King Xiaoyang.

For all of this, the person she should be most grateful to must be King Xiaoyang.

Otherwise, depending on the attitude of the Queen and Concubine Lan towards her, if the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple could speak for her, it would be a ghost.

She blinked, bowed and said: "The show girl Jiang Qiqi thanks the emperor for his kindness."

The eunuch laughed mockingly: "By the way, Jiang Qiqi, listen carefully, the empress made a special trip to the imperial study to ask the emperor's intentions, and she has already made other arrangements for you."

He snorted mockingly, and said with disdain on his face: "You don't need to keep calling yourself a beautiful girl, you don't have to dirty this noble word."

He stretched out his hand and slapped the tip of his nose, and said softly, "It stinks..."

Qiqi's face was livid.

A group of beautiful women, the husband and the second monk were puzzled, and turned their heads to stare at the gate.

In the room, Su Xinhe suddenly pushed open the door, walked to the corridor, and said plainly: "Who is making such noise, disturbing my peace?"

She is the person most favored by Emperor Wuwei in this draft.

It is also the person who is most likely to compete for power in the harem in the future.

Hearing this, the inner eunuch took a hasty glance at her appearance, finally restrained himself, and saluted her from a distance: "Slave...it's the slave who talks too much and disturbs the lady's rest. Wait a moment, lady, and I will bring this ignorant Gong'e to work with you." live."

After saying a word, he turned his head coldly, stared at Qiqi and said, "Hurry up and go, do you want to wait for nothing?"

Qiqi's eyes flickered, but her feet didn't move.

She didn't move, Su Xinhe stood on the porch, and didn't intend to return to the room.

Seeing this, the inner eunuch couldn't help saying: "Jiang Qiqi from Linshui County is ugly in appearance and vulgar in behavior. The emperor did not choose her as a beautiful girl."

He cupped his hands high and said mockingly: "The emperor has ordered the empress to remove your name in the Huanhua Pavilion and assign you to be the most inferior flower-seeing maid in the red plum garden beside Shenzhu Lake."

His face turned cold, he fixedly stared at Qiqi, and scolded sharply: "Hurry up, grandpa came here to invite you, are you going to heaven?!"

After saying a word, Manyuan Xiunv was extremely astonished.

Su Xinhe's complexion changed, and he finally retreated into the room.

There was an abnormal silence in the courtyard, and everyone's faces were ugly.

Because of the concern of the Empress Empress, Jiang Qiqi lost her title of show girl and became a handmaid.

Everyone is afraid that such a thing will happen to them.

Everyone is afraid that if they offend the empress, there will be no good fruit to eat.

In the silence, there was only one person who broke the weird atmosphere with a "puchi" smile.

The man waved a handkerchief and silk scarf, stood under a flower tree in the courtyard, and said delicately: "Oh... what kind of clever person is my wife, who is so ugly that I coaxed the emperor to choose him?" In the eyes, I became the lady in the Huanhua Pavilion, haha..."

She smiled like an oriole: "It turned out to be a fake... It didn't hurt the reputation of the eight of us. Hmph!"

In the inner garden of the imperial palace, there are many people who worship the high and trample the low.

Most of them are flattering people.

There are too many people who have fallen into trouble.

But such instant sarcasm and sarcasm are not common.

Qiqi turned her head and saw Jing Rourou's face covered with rouge without any surprise.

His face turned cold, and Qiqi's fingers suddenly became warm.

On the side, the inner eunuch flew over with a whisk, which happened to hit Qiqi's face, and shouted: "Go! Your things have already been thrown into the plum garden, what are you waiting for!"

Qiqi suddenly covered her cheek that was beaten, and stared at the inner prisoner fiercely.

The inner eunuch was startled, turned away his face and raised his voice, "Go to the Plum Garden."

The rest of the inner eunuchs turned around one after another, half escorting Qiqi to the plum garden.

Going to Plum Garden, the wind and snow all the way.

Tian'er, I don't know when it will snow again.

It is said that snow is not cold and snow is cold, but Qiqi was born in Linshui County, Lizhou Prefecture, no matter whether it is snowing or melting snow in Liuhuo City, it is the same coldness to her bone marrow.

It is the body and the heart that are cold to the marrow.

Probably because of the snow.

The inner eunuch had no intention of punishing her, and was silent all the way.

When we arrived at the bank of Shenzhu Lake, the water in the lake was dark and gloomy without the sunshine and blue sky.

The dense snowflakes on the lake gradually turned into cold and damp.

By the lake, the plum garden is hidden in the white wind and snow, which has a special beauty.

The entire Floating Fire City, perhaps only here can see its beauty.

Qiqi looked at the plum garden, frowned and said nothing.

The inner prisoner snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and pushed her back, and scolded: "When you get to the place, be your handmaiden, don't have any more sloppy intestines. Be careful..."

He didn't go on, and seemed to feel that it was pointless to go on.

He flicked his fly whisk and said loudly: "Living here, the Department of Internal Affairs will take care of your food and clothing expenses, so don't go anywhere else. If you offend a noble lady, ten heads won't be enough for you to cut off."

He casually waved his hand, called his subordinate inner prisoner, and said sharply: "Hurry up and report back, it's too cold today, we won't be able to get rid of the cold unless we drink some Yuyaochun."

The inner eunuchs hurriedly nodded obediently, surrounded him and hurried away.

Qiqi turned her head and saw the backs of the inner eunuchs completely disappear before turning back.

The wind and snow are howling, the sky and the earth are white.

The garden is full of fragrance, refreshing people's heart and lungs.

Tens of acres of spacious plum garden, far and near no human beings, birds, insects and animals are not seen.

Qiqi let out a long breath, rubbed her frozen hands, and walked towards the tiled house behind the plum garden.
