"Sister-in-law?" Yun Shang's face was full of astonishment, "Your brother hasn't given up on Ning Qian yet? Does he know that Ning Qian is now the Xiang Concubine of Xia Kingdom, and she is pregnant, and the child in her belly is Xia Qian?"
The prince and princess of the country.”
Wang Jinyan lowered his head, unconsciously drawing circles on the ground with his feet, and said: "I have persuaded my brother before, but he said that Ning Qian is the one he has identified, and no matter what, he will choose her.
.I have advised what should be advised, and scolded what should be scolded, but he is still like this, and there is nothing I can do..."
Yun Shang frowned and sighed, and then said after a while: "I understand, you go back first, the palace is no different than other places, you have to be careful. Your Majesty and Queen, you can avoid it if you can. If someone finds something wrong,
Just ask Ning Qian for help."
Wang Jinyan listened to Yun Shang's words and knew that Yun Shang had forgiven her, so she became happy and said with a smile: "Okay. This palace is getting a little boring. Now that Chang'er has entered the palace, someone will join me in the future.
Let’s play.” After saying that, he ran away with a smile.
Yun Shang smiled and watched her run out, smiled helplessly, and sighed: "Why are you still so reckless?" After a pause, he remembered that the excuse he had called her over was to get osmanthus cake.
, but she didn’t take anything. How should she explain it if someone asked?
However, although Wang Jinyan has a more straight-tempered temper, he is not clumsy. He naturally has ways to deal with it. Yun Shang thought to herself, then picked up the brown paper that Caiyi brought back, unfolded it and looked at it carefully.
Xiang Wen and Xiang Fu turned out to be twin brothers. They were both born on April 31, the seventh year of the Ming Dynasty. They were born in a village called Xinghuazhai next to Jincheng, on the 21st of the Ming Dynasty.
In 1999, because his father was fond of gambling, he lost all the money in the family. He had no choice but to sell his two children to the palace. The two of them had been servants in the palace of the Queen Mother. Later, after the Queen Mother passed away, Xia Huanyu
So they were transferred to the Tai Chi Hall, but they only had to do some chores.
Qin Yi also looked behind Yun Shang and murmured: "There is nothing wrong with her. If she was originally from the Queen Mother's Palace and was later transferred to the Tai Chi Palace, there should be no problem."
Yun Shang was silent for a long time before saying, "Mingqi, is the reign title of your Majesty today?"
Qin Yi nodded softly, somewhat dumbfounded: "The princess has been in the Xia Kingdom for such a long time, and she doesn't even know the reign of the Xia Kingdom. If she tells it, the old ladies in the palace will definitely say that the princess has no etiquette.
Already."
Yun Shang ignored Qin Yi's words, made some calculations in her mind, and said calmly: "The seventh year of Ming Dynasty should be twenty-two years ago. If I didn't make a mistake, there would only be three leap months in April that year.
Ten days, there are never thirty-one days."
Qin Yi was stunned, but she had never thought of this. Seeing Yun Shang's calm expression, Qin Yi quickly asked: "Princess, do you mean that there was a mistake on the vellum?"
"It's not that I remember it wrong, this thing is simply fake." Yun Shang smiled coldly, "According to common sense, since Xiang Wen and Xiang Fu entered the palace in the 21st year of Ming Qi, what is written on this paper
The first half of the handwriting should have been written in the 21st year of Ming Dynasty. The last record was that Xiang Wen and Xiang Fu were transferred to Taiji Hall after the death of the Queen Mother last year. In other words, the handwriting on it was the latest.
It was just last year." Yun Shang's eyes fell on the kraft paper.
"However, although the ink on this kraft paper looks a bit old, it is made of Junzi ink that was only available at the beginning of this year. I guess that this information is most likely just last night or early this morning, and someone only found it.
It was written on it. As for the old-looking paper and ink stains, someone should have sprayed water on the paper and roasted it on the fire before putting it on. It was deliberately made like this."
Yun Shang's expression was indifferent, but she looked confident. Qin Yi was silent for a long time, and then said: "Who made this information look like this?"
"Who?" Yun Shang smiled coldly, turned to Qin Yi and said, "Go and find some of our hidden stakes and ask where Cai Yi and Qi Rui Hai went after they left Chaoxia Palace.
Place."
"Princess is suspicious of Caiyi and..." Qin Yi heard the words and quickly responded, turned around and went down to give orders.
Yun Shang held the brown paper and looked at it for a long time with a calm expression, but the corners of her mouth turned up slightly. It seemed that everything was not too optimistic, but at least she knew where Luo Qingyan was going, and she felt relieved.
Just as he was thinking about it, Qian Zui walked in from outside, holding a plate in his hand with a brocade handkerchief placed on it.
Yun Shang looked at Qianzui with some confusion. Qianzui looked a little nervous and said quickly: "Princess, the queen ordered someone to send it here."
Queen? Yun Shang frowned, why did she send herself a brocade handkerchief? Yun Shang stretched out her hand to take out the brocade handkerchief and unfolded it, but her expression suddenly changed.
The brocade handkerchief is a plain brocade handkerchief with an orchid embroidered in the lower right corner. It is small and falls on the corner of the brocade handkerchief. It is very elegant. Under the orchid, there are also two words embroidered: Shujin.
Yun Shang suddenly crumpled the brocade handkerchief into a ball and put it into her sleeve. She stood up and said to Qian Zui: "Qinyi has something to go out. Please accompany me to Weiyang Palace."
Because so many things happened in the past two days, Yun Shang actually forgot about the hairpin that the queen gave to her mother-in-law that day. She was afraid that the queen couldn't wait any longer and actually sent someone to deliver it at this juncture.
A brocade handkerchief embroidered with the name of the mother-in-law.
Qian Zui didn't know why, but he quickly turned around and followed Yun Shang, rushing to Weiyang Palace.
When they arrived at Weiyang Palace, they were told that the queen was admiring flowers in the Imperial Garden, so Yun Shang turned around and walked back to the Imperial Garden.
At the end of winter, the imperial garden looked desolate, and there were no flowers to enjoy.
Yun Shang walked into the imperial garden and saw the queen sitting in a pavilion on the rockery behind the imperial garden. She quickly walked up to the rockery. The queen was sitting in the pavilion. There were eight palace people standing outside the pavilion. There was a ball in front of the queen.
Zhang Qin, his hand gently plucked the strings from time to time, and the guqin made a few whining sounds, but it couldn't make up the tune.
Seeing Yun Shang coming over, the queen just smiled faintly, raised her head and glanced at Yun Shang, pointing to the stool opposite her, "Princess Rui is here, sit down."
Yun Shang glanced at Qian Zui, who quickly lowered his head and stood outside the pavilion. Yun Shang then walked into the pavilion and sat down opposite the queen.
"I recently got a new good piano, called Chun Lei Qin. Unfortunately, I am a layman, so I can hear the piano, but I can't master the skill of playing the piano. Today I just heard a song between Princess Rui and Prince Rui.
"Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" is in love. I think Princess Rui's piano skills must be excellent. She has a good piano and beautiful scenery, so she should play a song on the piano. How about Princess Rui play a song for me?"
The queen gently picked a string with her little finger, then suddenly let go of her hand, making a soft "thump" sound, and it took a long time before she became completely silent.
Yun Shang no longer had the panic she had when she saw the brocade handkerchief, and gradually calmed down. Yun Shang glanced at the queen, then smiled and said: "The aftertaste is long, it is indeed a good piano."
As he spoke, he moved the piano in front of him, stretched out his hand to pluck, and tuned the piano again before raising his head with a faint smile: "What piano music do you want to hear, the Queen?"
The queen glanced at Yun Shang and said, "How about a song called "Remembering Old Friends"?"
Yun Shang covered up all the suspicions in her heart, smiled, and calmed down her mind, and the tunes poured out like running water under Yun Shang's hands. Although it was a piece of piano music that recalled an old friend, this piece of music had a bit of brightness, as if it were a memory.
Remember all the good things in the past.
At the end of the song, the Queen smiled and clapped her hands, and said with a smile: "Good piano, good music, and good piano skills." Her eyes were looking at the imperial garden, "It reminds me of some past events when I was young.
, At that time, I felt that many things were so unsatisfactory. Now that I think about it, those past events that once made me troubled and painful, now seem to be very nostalgic."
Yun Shang didn't know why the queen told her this, so she just listened quietly.
After a long while, the queen withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Yun Shang with a smile: "I heard that when Princess Rui was young, her mother had been living in seclusion in the cold palace. Princess Rui grew up under the guidance of Queen Ning Guo.
of?"
Yun Shang pressed the strings of the piano tightly with her hands, and laughed when she heard the words: "What the Empress said is indeed true. When I was young, I thought it was a big deal to have a biological mother in the cold palace.
This is a very irritating thing. My mother should be a noble queen. At that time, my wife was young and ignorant and had an impatient temper. If anyone mentioned my life experience, I would definitely make her look good."
"Oh? In this way, the relationship between Princess Rui and her biological mother is not very close? I heard that Princess Rui's biological mother was later taken out of the cold palace by Emperor Ning Guo, and she is now Jin Guifei, and she is still alive.
She married a prince, Prince Chenxi, who is also the only prince in Ningguo now." The queen's eyes kept falling on Yun Shang's face.
Yun Shang didn't know what the Queen wanted, so she raised her head and smiled quietly, her eyes calm, "Although I know this question is a bit disrespectful, I also want to ask the Queen, if the Queen is like me
A woman like this, abandoned by her biological mother, has not seen her mother for fifteen years since she was a child. What will the Queen do?"
When the queen heard this, she laughed quietly, with a bit of indifference in her eyes, but did not answer.
Yun Shang said quickly: "My wife has overstepped her bounds."
Then, after a pause, he continued: "She is my wife's mother-in-law. This is an unchangeable fact. My wife respects her, but cannot kiss her. After all, the loss of fifteen years is my fault."
It is impossible for a woman to make up for the regrets she has suffered in her life."
The queen smiled quietly and said, "Princess Rui is a woman with a true temperament."
"Thank you, the Queen, for the compliment." Yun Shang was too lazy to talk around the Queen anymore and spoke directly: "So, the hairpin that day and the brocade handkerchief today are also because the maid who was looking after me was once the mother-in-law.
That's why I knew it was my mother's maid. The queen gave these two things to her concubine. I don't know why?" Yun Shang plucked the strings of the piano. The sound was sweet, and Yun Shang's eyes fell on the strings.
, perhaps because he had not played the piano for a long time, his finger was scratched by the strings, and there was blood stained on the strings. Yun Shang gently wiped away the blood with a faint eyebrow. (To be continued)
