Not long after, a tall figure walked in. Guarjia was the first to see it, and she quickly stood up and said, "I have seen the emperor, and the emperor is blessed."
"Everyone, get up." After helping Guarjia up, Yinzhen walked to Nala, who also bowed and bowed, and said warmly: "If Sixi hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten what I promised you."
Nala smiled and said: "I am very happy that the emperor can come." After that, she handed the gold-inlaid chopsticks to Yinzhen with her own hands.
As Yinzhen moved his chopsticks, the lunch officially began. Because it was Nala's birthday, most of the dishes served in the imperial kitchen symbolized good luck, happiness, longevity and peace.
After lunch, Nala said: "Your Majesty, the Changyin Pavilion is ready. Why don't I, my concubine, accompany you there?"
"That's fine." Yinzhen nodded and walked out with Nala, and everyone followed closely behind. When passing through the courtyard, a group of eunuchs were carrying the congratulatory gifts, and they saw Yinzhen and Nala.
He showed up and knelt down to say hello.
One of these eunuchs was holding a brocade box. When he knelt down, a brocade box accidentally fell to the ground, revealing what was inside. It was a statue of Guanyin giving away children. However, at this time, Guanyin's arms had already
He was dropped, and the child he was holding was also broken into pieces.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ningzi stepped forward and shouted: "You are so bold, you actually dare to break the Guanyin sent by Concubine Jin!"
"Slave... this slave didn't do it on purpose." The little eunuch seemed to be frightened, and even his voice was out of shape. He then kowtowed to Yinzhen and Nala and said in panic: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Master, please forgive me. I made a mistake for a moment.
I have made a big mistake, and I beg the emperor and master to forgive me."
Nala's face turned cold and said: "You are so careless and you still have the nerve to ask for my forgiveness. You deserve to die!" While speaking, she glanced at Yinzhen without any trace. This scene was deliberately arranged by her.
The purpose was to let Yinzhen know that Guarjia knew that she could not have children, but sent a child-giving Avalokitesvara to deliberately ridicule her.
Anyone who dares to embarrass her will be embarrassed a hundred times in return!
As soon as he heard the word "death", the little eunuch became even more frightened and kept kowtowing. As for the people behind him, when they saw the broken Guanyin statue, they were all a little stunned, and then they all understood that Guarjia had given this statue to him.
The purpose of the Guanyin statue.
Nala looked back at Guarjia in the crowd and said, "Concubine Jin, you gave this Guanyin as a gift to me. Can you tell me how to deal with this slave?"
After hearing this, Guarjia quickly stepped forward and said humbly: "Since the thing was given to the empress, it belongs to the empress. Now that the slave has broken the thing, it is the empress who should deal with it. I have no right to speak."
Nala said with an apologetic expression: "After all, this was also your intention. Now that it has been shattered, I really don't know how to explain it to you."
"Your Majesty, your words are too strong. It's just a trivial matter. There's no need to worry about it." Seeing that Guarjia was still unwilling to say more, Nala didn't dare to force her. She turned to Yinzhen and said, "What do you think the emperor should do?"
What’s the best way to deal with it?”
Yinzhen looked away from the Guanyin statue and said calmly: "Today is your birthday. It is not suitable to see blood. Just send this slave to Xinzheku. Whether he lives or dies depends on him."
good fortune."
"The Emperor is merciful." Yinzhen's attitude made Nala very puzzled. He knew clearly that the Guanyin Guanyin was given to him by Guarjia, but he didn't react at all. It was really strange. Considering Yinzhen's thoughts
, it is impossible not to see that Guarjia had bad intentions in sending this statue of Guanyin to her son, but why...
After expelling the young eunuch to Xinzheku, everyone moved to Changyin Pavilion. The first performance was "Five Daughters' Birthday Wishes". The royal troupe, both Hua Dan and Qing Yi, all performed extremely well.
, making people watch intently, but Nalash seemed a little absent-minded, looking at Yinzhen aside from time to time.
As the sky gradually darkened, the last scene also came to an end, and gorgeous fireworks rose into the sky, dotting the night that gradually turned into darkness.
As the end of the Qianqiu Festival, after the fireworks, Yinzhen returned to the Yangxin Hall, and everyone else left one after another. In the end, only the Nala family and the Guarjia family were left in the Changyin Pavilion.
Looking at the woman opposite, Nala said: "The moonlight is beautiful tonight. Is Concubine Jin interested in accompanying me for a walk?"
Guarjia walked forward with a smile and said: "My queen has a destiny, how dare I disobey it!"
After walking for a while, Guarjia suddenly said: "Do you have something to ask me?"
Nala glanced sideways at her and said, "There is indeed something that makes me very curious. Did the emperor already know that the one you gave me as a gift was a Guanyin statue?"
"It seems that my concubine's guess is correct. The smashing of the Guanyin statue was not a coincidence, but was done carefully by the empress. The purpose..." She lowered her head and smiled and said: "I believe that the empress knows better than me, but this move,
The empress has gone astray."
Nala raised her long eyebrows that were carefully trimmed and said, "Oh? I don't know what to make of this?"
Guarjia raised her head and glanced at the moon that seemed to be round but not round, and said calmly: "From the dormitory to the Forbidden City, the empress has always been careful and in contact with the empress. How dare I neglect it? If I neglect it, my life may be lost."
Already."
"Concubine Jin is still as good at joking as before. Your life is so hard, how could you just say no?" As soon as Nala finished speaking, Guarjia took over and said: "My concubine's life is indeed very hard.
Otherwise, he would have died long ago in the dormitory and turned into a white skeleton, and he would not be alive until now."
"The emperor had seen the Guanyin statue of the concubine before it was sent to the empress. He also knew that it was a birthday gift that I prepared to give to the empress." Guarjia's words surprised Nala, and her eyes
It was tightly locked on Guarjia's body, as if it wanted to dig out her heart and see clearly.
Guarjia didn't pay attention to the gaze that fell on her at all, and said to herself: "I have been choosing my concubine for a long time, and I can't think of what gift to give to the empress. Fortunately, the emperor reminded me,
If you believe in Buddhism, since you believe in Buddhism, the statue of Guanyin is naturally the best."
Nala said coldly: "But Guanyin is not suitable for me. I believe that the emperor is also very clear about this."
Under the moonlight, Guarjia's smile was a little unreal, "But I told the emperor that the empress has always wanted to add another brother to the emperor. Even now that she is getting older, this wish has never disappeared, so
My concubine said that I should give a statue of Guanyin to the empress, so that Guanyin can bless the empress and she will get her wish."
Nala listened to her words quietly, and after a long time said: "What you did not only embarrassed me but also made me unable to attack you. Very good, Concubine Jin, I really underestimated you.
