Chapter 66
It turned out that early this morning, Concubine De was preparing to go to the Empress to pay respects.
Suddenly she remembered the bottle of perfume powder someone gave her yesterday, so she sent a maid to get it and give it to the Empress.
Because the Empress always likes to collect all kinds of perfume powder, Concubine Shu gave a bottle to the Empress a few days ago, and the Empress liked it very much.
She also let all the concubines try it, and it got unanimous praise from everyone.
But Concubine Shu was very proud.
Concubine Shu also secretly made a face to Concubine De, and showed off in front of her in a weird way, which made Concubine De very angry.
Although Concubine De and Concubine Shu were both the most favored concubines of Emperor Mingde.
But the two of them have always been at odds, and they love to compete with each other on weekdays, and they have to compete for superiority no matter what.
Other aspects are fine, but it is this aspect of offspring that makes Concubine De particularly upset.
Because Concubine Shu gave birth to the fourth prince, and Concubine De gave birth to the fifth prince.
But the fifth prince was always more troublesome than successful, and he didn't study hard, and always liked to play with strange things.
For this, Emperor Mingde scolded him a lot.
But he just didn't change, and he would fall asleep as soon as he picked up the book, and she was helpless.
On the contrary, Concubine Shu's fourth prince was much more sensible.
Because they were about the same age, the emperor always talked about the fourth prince in front of her.
Concubine De was even more angry.
Therefore, when Concubine De saw Concubine Shu's smugness, she was very unhappy.
So she thought that today was the right time to bring the bottle of perfume powder over. It
would also put an end to Concubine Shu's prestige.
Isn't it just a bottle of broken perfume powder?
It's like nothing to anyone!
The bottle of perfume powder in her hand is much more valuable than the bottle of perfume powder of Concubine Shu. She tried it herself yesterday and it must have beaten Concubine Shu!
Let her be proud!
The Empress did not show favoritism. She was very happy after getting the bottle of perfume powder from Concubine De and asked everyone to try it.
Who knew that when Concubine De was praising the bottle of perfume powder with a proud look on her face,
someone whispered.
"Why does this perfume look a little strange? It doesn't look like perfume powder. Instead, it looks a bit like flour..."
Who knew that when these words came out, Concubine Shu, who had been disdainful and didn't want to try it, immediately became excited.
She took the bottle of perfume powder directly, then applied a little on her hand.
Then she started laughing.
"Hahaha, this is obviously flour, and you said it's some rare stuff from the Western Regions?"
"Sister Defei, if you were not fooled, then you are deliberately playing a trick on us, right?"
"Hahaha, I'm almost dying of laughter!"
"By the way, sister Defei, if you don't know what scented powder is, I can teach you next time! Or, I can give you a few bottles, I have a lot!"
Shufei completely forgot to control her expression, and laughed so hard that she covered her stomach and couldn't straighten her back.
Even the other concubines pursed their lips and laughed secretly.
Defei was so embarrassed, she was so angry!
But she was suspicious in her heart, what was going on?
She had checked it carefully yesterday, and there was nothing wrong with the scented powder!
How come it turned into flour today?
Could it be that there was a thief in her palace, or a maid secretly replaced the perfume powder with flour?
It must be like this!
Damn it!
She actually embarrassed herself in front of so many people for no reason!
When she thought of this, Concubine De suddenly became angry and vowed to find the thief!
So she hurriedly asked for leave from the Empress and prepared to return to the palace to investigate the matter.
Unfortunately, when she returned to the palace, she ran into Emperor Mingde who had just returned from the morning court.
Originally, Emperor Mingde had always doted on Concubine De, and since she entered the palace, he had never even spoken a word to her loudly.
Who would have known that for some reason today, Emperor Mingde saw Concubine De suddenly stop, with an extremely ugly face, and shouted in front of the palace maids and eunuchs: "Look at the good son you taught! Can't he do something serious all day long?!"
Emperor Mingde threw his sleeves and walked away after saying this.
Concubine De had just lost face, and was suddenly scolded by the emperor for no reason, which made her extremely depressed.
As soon as she returned to the palace, she took out her anger on the broken perfume powder.
At this time, a palace maid beside her hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words in her ear.
Concubine De then realized that the instigator of today's incident was actually her disappointing son, the fifth prince!
So she immediately sent someone to call the fifth prince and beat him up again.
Poor Fifth Prince, with a big pig head and a swollen butt...
On the other side.
Lord Mei, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, returned home and immediately tied up his concubine Lin without saying a word.
He was even too lazy to listen to her explanation and sold her directly.
Lord Mei absolutely could not tolerate such a woman who was cheating on him!
At the same time, Lord Mei also ordered all the property previously given to concubine Lin, including land, jewelry, gold and silver, to be confiscated, and she was not allowed to take anything away.
In addition, the help given to her mother's family in the past will no longer be given in the future.
He, Mei Wenlin, will not be the one to be taken advantage of and leave those things to concubine Lin to help others raise children.
At the same time.
Wei Yinuo had already sat in the carriage with Master Wei on the way home.
She was completely sleepless today, and her mind was full of thoughts about Master Shikong.
Wei Yinuo: [Tongzi, do you think we should go to Huguo Temple to test it out first?]
[Didn't you say that Master Shikong's big warehouse has a lot of treasures hidden in it?]
[How about we sneak in and take a look?]
System: [Okay, okay! I want to see it, too!]
Wei Taifu shuddered when he heard this!
Oh my God!
This Yitong actually wants to go to Huguo Temple to find that secret warehouse? ?
? Are they serious?
Could it be that they forgot that Shikong arranged several martial arts masters to guard the warehouse? ? ? ?
Wei Yinuo: [But will we encounter any danger?]
System: [It's okay! Host, have you forgotten that I have a protection mechanism? I'm not afraid even if there is danger!]
Wei Taifu's head was pounding when he heard this!
What protection mechanism?
Why doesn't he believe it!
Last time, I said there was some kind of protection mechanism, but what happened was that Nuoer was chased by two big wolfhounds all over the street and almost fell off a tree and died!
Nuoer, you won't forget it so quickly!
Wei Yinuo was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice that Master Wei's face had turned extremely dark.
Yi Yitong had even started discussing the specific details.
