Chapter 306 Auction
As long as people smell Xiaoyao Powder, they will lose their mind and be unable to control themselves. The effect is several times stronger than aphrodisiacs. Men and women who are poisoned by Xiaoyao Powder will not be able to withstand the power if their yin and yang are not in harmony, and their bodies will explode.
"Hiss, who dares to use this stuff in the palace? They don't want to live anymore. If someone uses Chinese medicine... cough cough cough... then there will be blood all over the palace. Tsk tsk tsk tsk... This person is so brave, Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Concubine Shu covered her mouth and exclaimed. She had been watching the show for a long time and only now had the chance to speak, but when she opened her mouth...
Who would dare to use such a highly lethal drug in the palace? Isn't it obvious that this is a play directed and acted by Murong Yi himself?
The other three concubines all knew that Concubine Shu was fanning the flames. Whenever something happened in the palace, she would not be satisfied until the matter was blown out of proportion and everything was exposed. Everyone knew what she was thinking, but they would not join in the fuss and would just watch the show quietly.
The emperor glanced at her and said sternly, "Come here."
"I am here."
The commander of the imperial guards immediately stood up and knelt before the emperor.
The imperial guards are mainly responsible for the security of the palace, and are also responsible for the personal safety of people coming to the palace. It is their dereliction of duty that such a big thing happened here.
There are too many people entering and leaving the palace today, so it is normal that we cannot keep track of them all. Fortunately, no one died.
"Investigate today's events for me and see who is so audacious as to use Xiaoyao Powder in the Imperial Palace."
"I obey the order."
The commander of the imperial guards heaved a sigh of relief that the emperor had not punished him. He received the order and immediately took people to investigate.
Just at this moment, the palace maids dressed Su Xue and brought her out.
When Mrs. Su Er saw her, she immediately rushed over, hugged her and burst into tears.
"Mother!"
After a long period of suffering, Su Xue was very weak. She cried softly and cried with Madam Su Er.
When she just woke up inside, she almost hit her head against the wall and died. Fortunately, she had no strength left and was caught by the serving palace maid.
The mother and daughter cried so miserably that the concubines sighed in grief. Such a good girl was ruined like this.
The emperor glared at Murong Yi fiercely. If the fourth son's wife knew about this, he would be in trouble.
"Miss Su Er, I'm sorry!"
Murong Yi went over and apologized very humbly.
Su Xue didn't even look at him, turning her head to the side. She struggled out of Madam Su's arms, knelt before the emperor, and kowtowed to him: "Your Majesty, I am not feeling well. I will take my leave first."
The emperor saw that she was like a rag doll, like a delicate flower hit by frost. It was heartbreaking to see her. He nodded and said, "Then you can go back. I will give you an explanation."
"Your Majesty, thank you!"
After Su Xue kowtowed again, she asked the nanny beside Madam Su Er to find the unconscious Xiaoqing, and then the group left the palace.
"Father, Mother, it's all right. I'm going back now."
Murong Li was not needed for the matters here, so he quickly took his leave from the emperor and left the palace with Madam Su and the others.
After leaving the palace, Murong Li wanted to say something, but as a grown man, he didn't think it was appropriate to say anything, so they simply parted ways. He went straight to the auction and told Yue'er about this.
Before leaving the palace, Murong Yi took the imperial edict with him because he was afraid of any changes.
He was not a native soul here, so he did not take the matter of a woman losing her virginity so seriously. Only with the imperial edict in hand could things remain unchanged.
Of course, the imperial edict to the Su Mansion and the reward to Su Xue were also sent.
The emperor was also afraid that things would change, especially Su Yue. He decided it quickly without her knowing. What could he do if she found out later?
The spiritual compensation is naturally to grant her marriage to Murong Yi, and silks, satins, gold, silver and jewelry are naturally comforting.
The emperor, who had always been stingy, lost some money this time, but he also got it back from Murong Yi in disguise.
But Su Yue didn't know that something happened as soon as she left the palace.
After she returned to the palace and changed her clothes, she and Caixia came to Wuying Pavilion, where big red lanterns and red silk were hung everywhere, and the atmosphere was full of joy.
There is a huge plaque hanging on the door, with three characters "Wuying Pavilion" written in a flamboyant style. It is obvious that the characters are the work of a master.
The auction started at the end of noon. It was scheduled at this time to follow the palace banquet, which was almost over at that time.
When the master and servant arrived, quite a few people had already entered the auction house.
Su Yue also brought Caixia into the auction house.
As soon as you enter the auction house, you will see servants wearing Wuying Pavilion uniforms greeting the guests.
Be polite and respectful.
VIP guests are taken directly to the private rooms by servants, while ordinary guests are taken to the lobby. Everything is busy and orderly, without any chaos.
Su Yue was quite satisfied.
A servant saw them come in and was ready to take her away, but she refused. Hongying reserved a private room for her on the third floor, one of the three eight-person rooms.
Caixia came to the auction house for the first time. After entering, she looked around and was curious about everything. She thought everything was new and interesting. She reached out her hands to touch things here and there. She looked just like Granny Liu when she entered the Grand View Garden.
Su Yue looked at her amusedly. This girl was rarely taken out, and this was the first time she went out since returning to Beijing. She acted like an ignorant bumpkin. She would have to be taken out more often in the future to broaden her horizons.
After all, she was a maidservant by her side and represented the face of the palace.
"Caixia, let's go." Su Yue patted her shoulder.
Hai Xia came back to her senses, her eyes smiling as she whispered in Su Yue's ear, "Miss, did you design all this?"
Su Yue nodded: "Of course, how about it, isn't it unique?"
Caixia nodded vigorously: "Miss, you have a good brain, no one else can think of such a style.
The building is three stories high, with a circular hall in the middle. The hall is lined with chairs, enough to seat two hundred people, and there is a semicircular platform in the middle.
Su Yue gently poked her forehead. Her brain was not working well at all. She just made some minor changes based on the auction house in the study.
With what she learned in the apocalypse, how could she know those things?
The master and servant walked and looked around, and they met Hongying. She was very busy, so Su Yue let her go and they went to the three private rooms with eight people.
There was a servant standing in front of the private room door. When he saw them coming up, he quickly saluted Su Yue.
"Greetings, Madam. Please come in." The servant opened the door and invited them in.
Su Yue: "Just go and get busy. No need to wait here."
The lobby needs people, but she doesn't need anyone here. Caixia is enough.
The servant said respectfully, "Yes, ma'am."
It was Su Yue's request to call her Madam.
After the master and servant entered the private room, Caixia closed the door and looked around at the furnishings inside.
This private room was something she had never seen before. It was only about two square meters. There was a table next to the window with a fist-sized bell on it. The windows were all made of glazed glass, and you could see the lobby.
