Destined to Be Empress - Chapter 269
At that time, when Yang Yingying told Aunt Li, she only said that a relative of the housekeeper at her ancestral home had come to Beijing to make a living and asked her to come here. But the child wanted to learn how to do business, so he wanted to send him to Aunt Li’s nephew as an apprentice.
There was such a good opportunity to flatter the master, and that was just a word. Aunt Li naturally agreed.
The vegetable garden is no more busy than the ordinary shops. Every day, a new boy will be ordered. This is what Yang Yingying wanted. She just caught the opportunity to sneak into the palace. Li’s family members did not find that there was no one missing before they left, but they were just insignificant assistants. No one expected that she would hide in the palace. They only thought that she would slip away in the middle of the way. In addition, there were other families’ goods arriving and waiting to be counted and put into storage. As soon as the eunuch in charge of the matter urged, the Li family left in a hurry.
Yang Yingying here was knocked unconscious and stuffed in an inconspicuous corner of the warehouse. No one found her all day. When she felt her sore neck, it was already at night.
I don’t know the exact time, but there is some fire in the crack of the opposite door.
Just wake up that moment, Yang Yingying whole person is ignorant, press the head to think carefully for a long time, just remember oneself early in the morning dressed up as a boy to sneak into the palace, and then to the back of what impression also has no, she even can’t tell where she is at this time.
She is a lady of a big family. She has been spoiled since childhood. She has never suffered from hardship, and has never experienced such a thing. When she is in a completely dark and strange environment, she is just instinctively afraid. Her heart is pounding in the dark.
She wanted to cry, but she didn’t dare to. She got up boldly, groped to avoid the obstacles, and felt for the only door that had some light.
This warehouse usually stores the dishes and coarse grains that the palace ladies and eunuchs have to eat every day. They are not expensive. In addition, due to the large demand, they have to move in and out every day, so the door is not locked at all.
Yang Yingying tried to push, but actually pushed the gate open a crack, and looked out, and found that it was the imperial dining room.
In fact, up to now, she was a little confused, and she was not sure how she had been sleeping here for most of the day.
she didn’t even see a shadow of the person who hit her in the daytime. Besides, she was crooked there for a long time, and her neck was a little sore at the beginning, and she didn’t feel any discomfort. She was not even sure that she was knocked out by sneak attack I passed out by accident.
However, one thing is very certain –
she is still trapped in the palace at this time, which is a very terrible thing.
In the courtyard, there are constantly the imperial chefs, eunuchs and maids running around busy, busy carrying the food boxes and bowls and chopsticks sent back from various palaces into the courtyard for cleaning.
At this time, we can’t get out.
Yang Yingying pursed her lips and decided to hide here. When it was a little late, the people in the yard would sleep before trying to find a way.
Having made up her mind, she reached out and carefully tried to close the crack of the door that had just been pushed open.
However, I don’t know if she has a bad luck today. Just half way through her lighthearted action, a little eunuch screamed: “who is it?”
Yang Yingying only felt the hair on the back of her neck was inverted, and her instinctive reaction was to turn around and run inside.
But I don’t want to pile up a lot of sundries in this room. I don’t know what I’m tripping over and I just fall on the ground.
At the time of seeing the stars, the gate behind him had been opened and the fire was in full swing. Seven or eight small eunuchs rushed in.
“There are thieves!” Seeing her in this dress, someone was drinking hard.
Yang Yingying has long been so scared that she has forgotten to get up.
As a result, the movement became even more serious. It had already alerted the nearby patrol army. A group of bodyguards, armed with swords and spears, rushed in.
Under the reflection of lights, the weapons in their hands are shining with dazzling light.
Yang Yingying fell there, and her heart was shaking.
The guards were afraid not to make an assassin. They immediately relaxed their vigilance at the sight of a weak white faced boy crouching on the ground.
A bodyguard put up the long knife and pulled Yang Yingying up like a chicken.
“Who are you?” The eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room also heard the news and rushed to see that he was still outside the palace. He immediately became furious.
At that time, the courtyard outside was also full of black heads. Dozens of palace ladies and eunuchs were stretching their necks to watch the fun.
Yang Yingying’s face was pale and reluctantly took the courage to explain: “I I’m a new member of the Li family’s garden. I followed boss Li into the palace to deliver food in the morning. Later Later, I was too tired to sleep here. I I’m not a thief! I’m going! Go now
“Do you know me?” The leading guard looked at the eunuch in charge.
Yang Yingying thought that she had said that. At least they would have called the Li family to come over to identify people and take her back. However, they never thought that the servants in the palace always had high regard and low hand. Who would waste their time for a nobody and cause trouble.The old Eunuch in charge of the matter changed his face at that time: “many palace tableware have been confiscated back, we have such a big business here, who knows who you are!”
Yang Yingying opened her eyes and was stunned. She quickly explained, “I’m really from the Li family. You go to see boss Li.”
the old eunuch waved his hand impatiently: “even if it’s really brought in by the Li family, who knows what you’ve done all day long hiding here!” After that, he said to the bodyguard: “it’s not our duty to guard against palace affairs. You can do it yourself, brothers of the forbidden army.”
At present, there is no peace in the palace and the capital city. The emperor is in a daze and panic stricken. The bodyguards here naturally have more to do than less.
“Fortunately, I found it early, and nothing happened…” The chief bodyguard pondered for a moment and then said with a straight face and a wave of his hand: “search him. If there is any stolen goods, leave the stolen goods, and people will directly push them out to cut them down! Is this palace freely accessible? ”
After that, he turned around and looked at the blocked door behind him. He glared at the beads and said, “what are you looking at? It’s gone, it’s gone! ”
The bodyguard who dragged her reached out and was about to touch her in her arms. Yang Yingying’s hair just stood on end —
not to mention that there is poison hidden in her body, how can these slaves touch her just like her.
“Stop it!” She shrieked and, with all her might, shook off the guard’s hand, which was holding her arm, and retreated, covering her chest.
The leading bodyguard turned his head and looked at it, his face already faintly with anger.
Yang Yingying stares at him. Although she knows that she has mixed into the palace, she can’t explain it clearly, but it’s better than being pushed out to chop by these slaves.
“It’s against you…” The leading bodyguard came back, cursing and approaching.
Yang Yingying’s heart is fast weighing, and finally there is nothing to do —
seeing the man reach for her again, she finally turns her heart and says in a cold and sharp voice: “don’t be presumptuous, I-I’m the first lady of the Yang family in the prime minister’s residence, the future Princess Rui!”
The old prime minister has already retired, and the eldest lady of the prime minister’s house has an ulterior intention to sneak into the palace. It is not enough to be afraid of such a crime.
However –
the title of Princess Rui in the future is enough for them.
The bodyguard was struck by lightning and stopped in mid air.
A large group of people present looked at each other, doubting and perplexed.
Seeing that the guards are still hesitating, Yang Yingying is afraid that in order to cover up their own crimes, they simply do not do it twice
In order to save her life, she would also ignore it. She pulled her hat on her head, and her green silk flowed down. With her apricot eyes and peach cheeks, she was really a girl’s home.
“Do you dare to move me? If I have a good or bad thing today, tomorrow morning the Yang family will come to see his highness Rui Wang. I’ll see who can afford it… ” Yang Yingying pretended to be brave and angry.
The leading bodyguard also suddenly found it difficult to offend him
“Who knows who you are…” He whispered.
Now the whole palace is under the control of King Rui. If he offends him, he will die. Therefore, the only way to do this is to try to smooth the matter over and push the responsibility out as far as possible.
Yang Yingying is full of fear and stares at them defensively.
The man also made up his mind quickly, and forced himself to calm down and said, “I’m humble. I don’t know Miss Yang. But it’s a fact that you’re staying in the palace late at night for no reason. Since you say you’re the princess of his highness Rui, come with me to see his highness. Please make up your mind!”
As a matter of fact, Yang Yingying is a little afraid of situ Ming from the bottom of her heart. What’s more, she has lost her grip and is very flustered.
But now there is no Suzhou and Hangzhou standing below, which is also the expression of Zhuang Su’s consolation: “is your highness worried that he will play tricks? Miss Yan is in your hands at the moment. This time, the situation is different from that in Qiongzhou city last time. He should not be able to do so. ”
Situ Ming sneered and was about to speak. The eunuch’s deputy manager on duty stepped in quickly and said, “Your Highness, the patrolling guards have just caught a woman who has entered the palace without permission from the imperial dining room…”
Si Ming and Su Hang don’t like each other.
Their first reaction was that situ yuan or night Qing Hua, no matter how bad, they were Yan Jintian’s people.
But Yang Yingying, an ordinary bodyguard, did not know her, but the eunuch deputy manager was sure not to know her, so she said with some embarrassment: “it’s Miss Yang’s family!”
Si Tu Ming still didn’t understand.
“The Yang family, the former Prime Minister’s residence!” The eunuch can only explain: “the princess who hasn’t passed through the door for you, the lady of the Royal concubine.”
It was only then that situ Ming remembered that there was still this stubble.
His face sank.
But Su Hang couldn’t help asking, “how did she get into the palace?” The eunuch’s deputy chief executive was even more embarrassed, but he could only tell the truth: “it was said that she was a girl who came into the imperial dining room in the daytime and was found by the imperial army when she was walking around the palace at night. She said that she was a young lady who supported the family. The guards did not recognize her and did not dare to make decisions without authorizationYou can deliver it! ”
A nameless anger rose when situ remembered him.
Su Hang looked in his eyes and quickly tried to say: “Your Highness, that belongs to send away…”
Before the words fell, situ Ming said coldly, “bring her in!”
“Yes In response, the eunuch turned around and went out. Soon, Yang Yingying, with her dishevelled hair and a stiff expression, came in. Without waiting for situ ming to speak, he sent people in and pushed them down.
“I have seen your highness!” Yang Yingying lowered her head and did not dare to look at the expression on situ Ming’s face and bowed to salute.
Suzhou and Hangzhou didn’t quite understand what this woman was wearing to sneak into the palace like this.
“What are you going to do if you are dressed like this?” said situ Ming, looking condescending
“I…” Yang Yingying’s heart thumping straight jump, at this time there must be no beautiful mind, just because of tension and fear.
She hesitated to explain.
However, situ Ming had no patience with her. He asked again impatiently, “speak up!”
The tone was severe enough to make Yang Yingying’s legs tremble, and her body was soaked in cold sweat.
Yang Yingying said in a low voice: “I I heard that your highness is very busy recently, and I have no chance to enter the palace, so… ”
Before he finished speaking, Su Qing came in flustered outside, arched his hand and gasped: “Your Highness! Something’s wrong
The atmosphere in the hall was immediately tight.
Si Tu Ming looks at the past.
Su Qing took a look at Yang Yingying, who happened to be here. She didn’t care about her for a moment. She said directly: “the maid who you arranged to pass food to the four palaces died suddenly after the dinner. I’ve seen her. The bleeding from the seven orifices is very poisonous. The poison was put in the food at night.” He placed Yan Jinning in one palace and made the same preparation in the other three places. But after all, the other three palaces were empty. If someone had a heart to observe it carefully, it could be seen only from the plates that the maids sent in and then brought out every day. So she ordered the eight maids to send in rice every time, Be sure to finish the meal before serving it.
Now these people are all poisoned and dead, so
“What?” Si Tu Ming suddenly changed color, and suddenly stood up.
Yang Yingying is also scared to stare at the boss.
After entering the palace, she went to sleep until dark and didn’t do anything at all, but how could this happen?
“What about Yan Jinning?” Asked situ Ming, walking quickly around the table.
Su Qing wiped the cold sweat running out: “I’ve sent people to see it, because I’m in a hurry to come back and report to you…”
Before the words fall, situ Ming is a ferocious face. Huo turns his head and looks at Yang Yingying.
Yang Yingying’s intuition is that she has only one idea, that is, to turn her head and run away, but the idea just starts. Before she can move, situ Ming grabs her wrist and pulls her in front of her.
Yang Yingying looks at him in horror and almost screams.
But situ Ming didn’t say a word. First he reached into her arms and didn’t take out anything. Then he went to touch his sleeve pocket and took out a small paper bag.
“Your Highness, this is…” Jiangsu and Hangzhou exclaimed, looking at Yang Yingying in disbelief.
Yang Yingying happened to appear in the imperial study, but Yan Jinning had another accident
“Not me!” Yang Yingying is staring at by situ Ming. She feels that her heart is dying. She tries her best to calm herself down. However, she still cries out: “listen to me, your highness. I’m not, really not me, I am…”
Before the words fell, situ Ming pushed her away.
Yang Yingying falls to the ground and looks up at him in horror again. She wants to say something. But situ Ming’s face is really terrible. She shakes her lips.
Si Tu Ming held the bag in his hand and shook it in front of her. He said: “if she has something to do, you can swallow this package for me!”
After saying that, she did not give Yang Yingying a chance to speak again. As soon as she turned around, she rushed out.
“Your Highness…” Yang Yingying sat on the ground, her voice shrieked at his back, but there was only a sob of panic behind her, and a voice in her heart kept circling —
it’s over! It’s all over! This time she is really finished!
After he came out of the imperial study, situ Ming walked calmly all the way. The patrol guards he met along the way retreated one after another. Naturally, he wanted to go to Yan Jinning’s residence, but on the way, his feet suddenly stopped.
Su and hang didn’t pay attention to him for a while, and nearly hit him: “Your Highness?”
Suddenly, there was a strange sneer on his face, and he said, “let’s go and have a look.” Suzhou and Hangzhou were a little puzzled, but they were still obedient and had to make arrangements. However, situ Ming suddenly ordered, “go to all four places!”
