Xue Yao apprehensively followed the two eunuchs towards Lin You Palace.
The more I think about it, the more I feel bad, in the novel, Consort Tong first to compete for favor, and then to pave the way for the three emperors, the hands can not be less blood.
She had even done the thing of raising a bandit - secretly asking her brother, who was fighting the Japanese on the coast, not to completely eliminate the Japanese, so that the emperor would always treat the two brothers generously.
Consort Tong was a woman with a wrist, different from the simple Consort Shi, naturally not easy to fool.
Xue Yao raised his eyes to look at the two eunuchs following beside him, thinking to himself that he could simply pretend that something had been left in Consort Shio's palace and ask to go back to retrieve it, that way he would have the opportunity to seek Consort Shio's shelter.
He had at least gotten into trouble with Consort Tong to help Consort Shi, and Consort Shi should have sheltered him.
Xue Yao's footsteps slowed slightly, and just as he was about to speak, he stopped.
His mind was racing: if he defected to Consort Shio with a weak heart now, then the charge that he had tripped up Consort Tong would be a solid one.
As far as Consort Tong's tactics were concerned, it was difficult for Consort Shio to defend herself, so how could she keep sheltering him?
Sooner or later, he was going to confront Consort Tong, and now he could escape by playing slippery, but he couldn't escape for the rest of his life, instead, he would make Consort Tong pay more attention to him and even hate him.
Thinking this way, Xue Yao did not hesitate any longer and followed the eunuch to meet Consort Tong.
Consort Tong lives in Lin You Palace, and Yan Chun Pavilion neighboring, before stepping into the palace door, will smell the fragrance of flowers, the scenery of the outer courtyard than the Shi Fei's Green Dome Hall much more beautiful.
I don't know if it's because of her brother's light, or if she's just very favored.
The eunuch led Xue Yao to the side hall to see Consort Tong, and before he had time to greet her, there were chamberlains on the left and right who came up to search Xue Yao's body.
Xue Yao's scented pouch was searched out by the chamberlain and forwarded to Consort Tong on the noble consort's chair.
Tong Fei is twenty-nine years old this year, looking very young, full forehead, round almond eyes, skin is not too fair, is a healthy wheat color, and did not deliberately cover up with lipstick, noble temperament.
With a calm demeanor, she took the scented capsule and smelled it before handing it over to the maid, instructing in a warm voice, "Check to see if the formula is exactly the same, and don't notify Fangqiu yet."
The odor was the same, and if the recipe was exactly the same, then there must have been a mole around her who leaked the recipe for the scented pouch.
The incident of the scented capsule, a total of three knowers, of which the most suspicious, is that configuration of the prescription of the Taoist hillock.
Xue Yao lowered his head, panicked, in front of this kind of woman who had specialized in court battles for more than a decade, his IQ vaguely felt like it was being crushed.
"The second son of Elder Xue Cheng's family?" Consort Tong spoke in a gentle tone.
"All hail the Empress." Xue Yao answered in greeting.
Princess Tong said, "Lift your head up and look at me."
Xue Yao raised his head nervously, and the moment he met his eyes, he only felt that the woman's deep black pupils seemed like x-rays, able to see through him.
"Which one is your master?" Princess Tong spoke calmly.
Xue Yao bowed and replied, "I serve the Third Prince as a reader, the Third Prince is my master, and the Empress is also my master."
"I'm asking about the master who sent you to alert Princess Shio."
"I don't understand what Your Highness meant by reminding Lady Shio of what?"
Consort Tong smiled with satisfaction, "At this point in age, so calm and collected, a buildable talent."
Xue Yao was on the verge of peeing in fear, still pretending to be at a loss.
Concubine Tong said, "This palace heard about your performance at the Green Vault Palace, it was such a brilliant performance that even my scouts were bluffed into thinking that your mother really had such a scented pouch."
Xue Yao blinked and laughed, "Your Highness also likes this scented capsule? I can have mother match you with a new pack."
Concubine Tong was silent, looking at him with a gradually icy gaze.
Xue Yao raised the corners of his mouth, revealing the most sincere smile, and stiffly continued to play dumb: "This scent is tops!"
Concubine Tong smiled, "I'm really appreciating you more and more as a brat, how old are you this year?"
"Three months short of nine years old."
"Really heroic young man." Concubine Tong sized up Xue Yao: "I understand your family history, your father's official position is not very comfortable, so his hopes have fallen on you and your brother's shoulders, right? Your elder brother is by the side of the Grand Prince, but you were sent to my family's oldest, are you helping the Grand Prince to keep an eye on us?"
Xue Yao secretly said that it was not good.
The woman was just so smart, with her brain wrapped around eight hundred corners, that he froze a little just listening to it.
However, Xue Yao was not the Great Prince's mole, and saving Consort Shio was purely his impulsive will, with no one behind it instructing him.
However, letting Consort Tong misunderstand that she was the Grand Prince's person was not bad, at least she could save her life.
The eldest prince is the first son of the queen, the rightful ruler, if not for the future of his joint cabinet to implement that set of changes in the law, made a big mess, will not be completely collapsed.
At the moment, the status of the Grand Prince was still far superior to that of Princess Tong, and it would be safe to pretend to be the leg hair of the Grand Prince.
Therefore, Xue Yao didn't deny it and only pretended to be dumb and smiled.
Consort Tong was puzzled in her heart, guessing that Xue Yao was the eyes and ears that the Grand Prince had planted on her son's side, but why would the Grand Prince want to meddle in Consort Shio's business?
Consort Shio won the holy favor by virtue of her beauty, and even the Empress was a little jealous of her.
Consort Tong's tripping was actually tacitly authorized by the Empress, so why did the Grand Prince ask Xue Yao to remind Consort Shi?
It's not often that Princess Tong can't figure something out.
And it was something that she really couldn't figure out.
Xue Yao was a modern man, and most of his actions came from his heart, unlike the people in the harem, which was full of interests, and did not have the concern of pulling one hair to move the whole body.
He simply just wanted to save Princess Shio.
If there was no backstage, Princess Tong did not believe that this eight year old child could know the secret of the scented pouch or even make a copy of the same recipe.
It simply baffled her to no end.
This young child actually had a city that she couldn't even look at, what a promising future.
It was just a pity that it was the Grand Prince's person, and she was afraid that she was not qualified to grab it.
The talent that can't be snatched is the future enemy, and getting rid of it one day earlier is one more point of security.
Xue Yao wasn't sure what was going on underneath the woman's smiling expression.
A few moments later, the chamberlain brought back the scented capsule and whispered into Consort Tong's ear for a while.
Consort Tong nodded slightly and asked the chamberlain to return the scented capsule to Xue Yao, before speaking with a smile or not, "Recently, with the Japanese invaders running rampant along the coast, His Majesty has been working hard day and night, and everyone hoped that Auntie Shih would rest for a few days, so that she didn't have to offer dances day after day and didn't disturb His Majesty's purity, and then someone suggested that she be dispensed with some tranquillizing potions. The scented capsule is a good thing, it doesn't kill you with its smell."
This official voice is justified and convincing.
After all, this scented capsule does have the effect of tranquilizing the mind, not to mention that it is still "everyone's wish", not Tong Fei Niangiang's own idea.
Xue Yao was convinced and only begged Consort Tong not to silence her for the sake of the Grand Prince.
The results of Tong Fei not only did not make things difficult for him, but also returned him to the scented bag, in addition to rewarding him with two silver ingot, let him out of the palace.
Xue Yao didn't believe that this horrible woman would let him off the hook so easily, and he definitely couldn't stay around the Third Prince.
So the next day, Xue Yao came to Consort Shi's door, stating that his father did not approve of his transfer, but that he himself very much wished to serve the Seventh Prince and begged Consort Shi to make the decision.
The foolishly sweet Empress Shi Fei was very moved and immediately gave Xue Yao the go-ahead.
An oracle penetrated the Xue Mansion, allowing Xue Yao to transfer to the Green Vault Hall to study.
Master Xue's face is furious green, so, is considered to be the abolition of one of his sons, the third prince there is no care.
Chen and Xue Qiong mother and son were simply happy, decided that Yao Ge'er's life is no future, actually with a "hybrid" prince!
When he grows up, he may even follow the Seventh Prince to a shithole fiefdom, where he won't be able to become an official.
Master Xue was furious, thinking that Xue Yao must have done something wrong to be sent away by the Third Prince, and as soon as the eunuch left, he passed on the Addition to first beat Xue Yao with a board to take out his anger!
Chen knew that the board could not be saved, so she pretended to be a loving mother and stopped the master, pleading for Xue Yao.
"It's you who usually indulged this sinner too much! Now that you let him be, he's spoiling things!" Master Xue furiously pushed Chen away and scolded Xue Yao, "Kneel down for me! No one can plead for mercy today!"
Chen covered her face and choked, "In the future, I will definitely discipline Yao Ge'er properly, and will no longer disregard his young age, so don't be angry at your lordship and break your body!"
That's when the difference between a real mom and a nominal mom becomes clear.
Aunt Zhou is now kneeling on the ground, hugging the master's legs, all crying out in a scandalous manner.
Instead, Mrs. Chen was only concerned with paving the way for her to teach Xue Yao a lesson in the future.
Xue Yao didn't explain so as not to enrage Master Xue even more, only quietly kneeling in front of Master Xue.
Master Xue raised his hand and was about to look at his back and hit the board!
Xue Yao had anticipated that she might be beaten, so she discussed this with her maid in advance: as soon as the master passes on the family law, she will go to the main courtyard to seek help from the old lady.
Due to the fact that her own mother, Aunt Zhou, desperately hugged the master's leg and managed to delay the time, before Master Xue could swing down a board, the old lady arrived in tears.
"Hit me if you want! Hit me!" As soon as the old lady entered the door, she first helped Yao Ge'er up, had her maid bring in a chair, sat down in front of the master, and said sternly, "I'm the one who should have fallen to my death in the temple long ago, and this old life was saved by my grandson, so I'll take the beating from the master for him!"
The old master quickly told the underlings to put away the board, bowed at the side to console: "Old lady do not be angry, the son did not really do it, bluffing this bastard long memory just."
The old lady already knew that Xue Yao was transferred to the seventh prince, grunted in anger and said, "This is not something that Yao Ge'er can do, only by the master of the palace, how can you beat the child for this?"
Master Xue did not dare to refute, said yes repeatedly, received a reprimand, before sending the old lady back to the main courtyard.
Xue Yao, on the other hand, was taken by the old lady to stay in the side room of the main courtyard for a few days, just in case the master's lingering anger didn't subside and he found a chance to beat him up.
The food in the main courtyard, with the third house that is not a grade, abalone sea cucumbers every day.
Xue Yao happily went with the old lady, leaving Xue Qiong, who was ready to watch the show, with a crooked mouth, panting and staring at Mrs. Chen, wanting her mother to leave Xue Yao behind to be beaten.
How could Mrs. Chen dare to talk too much, the master's salary is low, and the livelihood of the third house is dependent on the old ancestor to take care of it.
Now that the old lady does not favor her grandson from the third house, but instead favors the little bastard from the commoner's house, Mrs. Chen dared to be angry but dared not say anything, and she sent Xue Yao out of the courtyard door with a grim look on her face.
*
Xue Yao compensated the old lady for dinner, then went back to the house and closed the door, and couldn't wait to close his eyes and enter the mental space, spend 130 whitewash points, and turn on the glowing square.
