Chapter 734: Dealing with Lu Yunrong
Depose the Crown Prince.
The four words knocked heavily in Xue Jinyi's heart.
To this, she only sighed, which was so mixed that it was difficult to discern the true meaning, and other than that, she did not say a word.
Concubine De didn't ask, and sighed: "It's all karma." Then, she changed the subject, "By the way, I've been worrying about what birthday gifts should I give to King Chu and Jinyi." Thinking that your Jingxuan is so impressive, ordinary things are not interesting, you have to be ingenious. ”
Xue Jinyi said: "A piece of heart can make me and the King of Chu happy." ”
Concubine De smiled: "You kid, you don't let people worry about it." ”
"Concubine De Niangniang," Xue Jinyi took her hand, "It's only been a day's work, and you have arranged the birthday banquet so thoroughly, which must have taken a lot of effort." This is the first time that King Chu and I have celebrated our birthday in the palace, and it is also the first time we have celebrated our birthday together after marriage, which means a lot to us, and Concubine De arranged it so thoroughly, it is the best gift for us. ”
"I'm also happy, and I want to arrange it for you as soon as possible, so that if there is anything wrong or disliked during this period, I can correct it as soon as possible."
"It's already very good, Concubine De." Xue Jinyi's eyes rolled and she said softly: "Miss Lu is pregnant, my father is still suspicious, right?" ”
"Yes." Concubine De didn't mean to hide it, and said bluntly: "This pregnancy is too coincidental, and there are many suspicions, but there is no way to verify the conclusive evidence, so ...... It's up to you, Jinyi. ”
"Well......" Xue Jinyi didn't hide it from Concubine De, after all, what she had to do at the birthday banquet, if Concubine De helped, it would be like a tiger with wings, "I plan to try Miss Lu on the day of the birthday banquet." ”
Concubine De hurriedly asked, "Jinyi, is there a place where I can help you?" ”
Xue Jinyi roughly told Concubine De about her plan, "...... The most important thing is that you must be unaware of the ghosts and do not leave any clues behind. ”
"That's why Jinyi proposed to arrange Miss Lu in that position!" Concubine De pondered, "Except for the emperor and the queen, no one else can see it, and there will be no witnesses, and the rest is physical evidence." ”
"Hmm." Xue Jinyi said: "I have to make sure that Lu Yunrong eats all that thing, and there is nothing left, but this is too difficult...... Even if there is a little bit of dregs left in the bowl, it will be detected. Therefore, there must be a trustworthy person who took advantage of the fact that Empress Cai and her palace maids were not paying attention and dropped the bowl of things. ”
Concubine De said: "I'm afraid that Queen Cai won't let people approach Miss Lu at will." ”
"Therefore, the drawings of the seating arrangement must not be known to Empress Cai and his people." Xue Jinyi admonished.
Concubine De nodded, "Jinyi don't worry, I'm also afraid that some people will know the specific arrangements for the birthday banquet, so I will prepare for something unexpected to come out and ruin such a good day, so I locked the drawings in the cabinet, the key is in my hand, and others can't open it, and today's adjustment, only you know." ”
Xue Jinyi relaxed slightly, "In this way, first changed the seat, let Empress Cai mess up the formation first, and when she sent someone to watch Lu Yunrong's new position, she preemptively sent someone to stand there." ”
"I see. But...... This person must not be too much, too much, it will arouse Queen Cai's suspicion. But if it is less, Empress Cai's people can also stand there and monitor the every move of the people around them. ”
Xue Jinyi nodded slowly, "Yes, this is also a problem that needs to be solved......"
Concubine De then thought about it, "What should I do?" ”
"That's right," Xue Jinyi recalled the program list at the birthday banquet, "Let's arrange a messy group, the more novel and exciting the performance, the better, enough to attract people's attention." ”
"That's right," Concubine De laughed, "that's a good idea." ”
Xue Jinyi said: "Because there is a shelf in front of Lu Yunrong's seat, and there is a gauze curtain in front of it, no one can see what the wonderful performance is like?" So, the more you can't see clearly, the more anxious you are, and everyone's eyes will be focused on the shelf. ”
"At that time, it was the best time to do it!" Concubine De's eyes lit up.
"That's right." Xue Jinyi touched her chin, "However, this is not enough, we need to think of a few more backup methods." ”
Concubine De said: "I heard that there is a monkey artist from the Western Regions in the capital, and the monkey is very knowledgeable about human nature, well-behaved and obedient. ”
"The Western Regions?" Xue Jinyi shook her head, "Don't associate with people from the Western Regions for the time being. ”
"What's wrong?"
"I think of the remnants of the former dynasty surnamed Shen, who had previously taken people from the Western Regions to Xingqing Palace to perform for his father, and won full applause. Moreover, among the remnants of the previous dynasty, there are also some people from the Western Regions, so we should be careful. ”
Concubine De agreed with Xue Jinyi's caution, "Okay, let's think of another way." ”
The carriage came briskly all the way to Xingqing Palace, and after Xue Jinyi and Concubine De looked at the venue together, they planned how to deal with Lu Yunrong that day, and then they went back to their respective homes.
Xue Jinyi returned to the Chu Palace, and smelled the fragrance of braised elbows from a distance.
The hard work of this trip disappeared at once, and she was like a happy bird, rushing into the yard, not wanting to shout "Ah Xuan, I'm back", and bumped into someone first.
"Xue Jinyi, you're going to kill me!" The half-grown child sat on the ground, kicking his legs and feet, and screaming angrily.
Xue Jinyi looked at it, and it turned out to be Xue Huai.
She pulled the person up with a smile and asked, "Why did you come to me if you don't practice martial arts at home?" She sniffed the smell of meat in the air vigorously, "Could it be that the smell of braised elbow actually drifted to the Weiguo Mansion?" Tsk, our Ah Xuan is really amazing. ”
Xue hugged his arms and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Obviously, I miss my sister and brother-in-law, why did you say that I was greedy and came to eat and drink?" ”
Xue Jinyi rubbed her head for a moment, "Oh, Ah Huai actually misses me, it's really surprising!" ”
Xue Huai hurriedly broke free from her "claws", "Your hair has been rubbed by you, so let someone come to see the younger brother of the dignified Princess Chu like a little madman!" Look who's ashamed! ”
"Who are you going to call to come and see?"
Suddenly, a shadow landed from behind Xue Huai, and then Xue Huai was grabbed by his knees, and the whole person was lifted.
Xue Huai was startled, "Wow wow" screamed, "Hey, hey, let me down!" ”
His calves kicked with difficulty, and Pu Yangxuan easily dodged it, "No one can see it, you should die." ”
Xue Huai lowered his head and glared at Pu Yangxuan, and said bitterly: "Brother-in-law! Why have you become so unprincipled in front of Xue Jinyi! ”
