The next day, Yan Shiyue was playing "Eagle Catches Chicken" with the children when Wei Xin came over and said with a smile, "Master, Hongdou has been sent out of the palace."
What? Yan Shiyue was a little surprised and asked carefully.
Few people knew what Princess Jiahui and Emperor Mingyan said at the time. The original words were "enter the palace to accompany the queen for a few days." This is a common tactic used by these people in the palace. Anyway, they will always accompany her.
But this also led to the situation that if the Queen didn't want her to accompany her, she could just send her back without even saying a word.
Yan Shiyue was extremely curious, so she went to the palace to ask, and the Queen only said... She had told Emperor Ming Yan about what happened to Prince Ke back then.
Wow? Actually, think about it, the queen is really calm. Emperor Ming Yan is not a lustful person. He would never accept this Hongdou girl during the national mourning period. Therefore, the queen can be very calm.
She only needed to tell this story at the right time, and Emperor Ming Yan's guilt towards the Empress Dowager would disappear at once.
And there's a ready-made punching bag right here. If I don't send him away, will I just keep him here to be an eyesore?
It just so happened that Yan Shiyue talked about Prince Ke with Princess Jiade yesterday. Isn't this a good introduction? The reason why it was not delayed for too long was probably to prevent Emperor Ming Yan from being sad for too long.
In this way, Emperor Ming Yan's guilt shifted to Prince Ke, and Prince Ke was now following Yan Shiyue anyway.
...
...
The more Yan Shiyue thought about it, the more she felt that the Queen was really very capable! Extremely capable!
I wonder what Princess Jiahui, who wanted to marry the fat man but her plan failed, is thinking at this moment.
But this incident also has a chain reaction.
In this way, even if Emperor Ming Yan did not say it, Princess Jiade's plan to stay would definitely fail.
I guess she will take action soon.
Sure enough, that night, the shadow guard reported back that the concubine Yue Niang had finally gone to remove the Gu!
And those Gu were actually buried under the tree in the yard where she lived! A big box! Then she took two small bottles and buried the others back.
Yan Shiyue did not hesitate: "Steal it back."
The shadow guard asked, "Steal from him?"
Yan Shiyue looked at him in surprise: "So soft-hearted? Of course she stole the box! She had evidence in her hand, how could she steal it?"
Okay, I understand. So in less than an hour, the shadow guard carried the box back.
The next morning, when Yan Shiyue went to see him, she saw Su Ji with his beard upturned, looking at the poisonous insects. When he saw her coming, he smiled and said to her, "Master wants two death row prisoners. In addition, it would be best if someone who can use these insects can also be invited."
Yan Shiyue nodded: "Master, don't worry! Leave it to me!"
So she gave orders to find a few death row prisoners who really deserved the punishment, and then discuss the matter with them. Those who agreed could come to try the medicine, and she would give some silver to their families.
As for people who can use insects...
Meng Yiqiu had just recruited a bee and was feeling very satisfied. Then he saw a beautiful young lady standing by the road, smiling at him seductively.
As a man who understands and appreciates women, and the most famous and coveted Meng Erlang in the capital, he would of course return the favor, return her smile, and then walk to her side gracefully.
The young lady looked charming and said delicately, "I am honored to be here."
Meng Yiqiu smiled faintly. He had a beautiful face, and the curves of his eyebrows and eyes were just right, like a flower in full bloom. He was so handsome that people could not take their eyes away.
Even if the young lady had bad intentions, she couldn't help but be dazzled. Then she saw the handsome man approach slightly and whispered softly in her ear: "Do you want a sewing machine?"
Young lady: “……???”
What the hell? ! !
What is a sewing machine?!
Then she saw the man in front of her change his expression instantly, from spring flowers blooming to winter cold, and said coldly: "Oh."
He turned away.
He is now the Minister of Commerce, does he think his beauty and smile are given for free?!
Ever since Meng Erlang tried to sell fifty sewing machines with a smile, he no longer cares about the sales of one or two machines! What's more, he looks like a country bumpkin who doesn't even know what a sewing machine is!
The girl who was left behind chased for a long time but failed to catch up, so she could only go back silently and tell Ye Huaiting.
Ye Huaiting asked in surprise: "Sewing machine?"
He had heard of sewing machines, but what did this have to do with Meng Yiqiu?
He quickly sent someone to inquire about it.
Fortunately, this is not difficult to find out. Anyway, Meng Yiqiu is now in charge of selling sewing machines, and many people in the capital have bought them specifically for him.
So the next day Yue Niang had to go out again. Meng Yiqiu didn't even look at her, and Yue Niang didn't care about posing, so she had to shout in the street: "I want to buy a sewing machine."
Meng Yiqiu paused for a moment and turned around: "How many do you want to buy?"
Yue Niang said: "Two!"
Meng Yiqiu immediately pointed, and a man who looked like a servant came over: "Young lady, please follow me."
Yue Niang asked, "Why isn't it Meng Tanhua who came?"
The servant smiled and said, "Our master is a person of status. If you want him to receive you personally, you have to buy at least a hundred machines."
Hundreds! One sewing machine costs dozens of taels of silver! This is really not a small amount!
But in order to get close to Meng Yiqiu without leaving any trace, Yue Niang still gritted her teeth and agreed, and then... bought a hundred sewing machines. Then Meng Yiqiu took the money, gave her a delivery note with big words (take the goods here, no replacement if lost), and invited her to have tea in a graceful manner.
Yue Niang breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, the two of them went into a private room to drink tea. Meng Yiqiu was accompanied by two servants. Fortunately, Yue Niang was not here to flirt with him... Even if she had the intention of flirting with him, she had given up on it, so she didn't care and just looked for an opportunity to make her move.
When Meng Yiqiu's tea was half warm, the servant suddenly said, "Hey, look at that man!"
So Meng Yiqiu and another servant stood up, and the three of them leaned over the window to look: "Hey! This guy looks really weird!"
Yue Niang secretly laughed at the boy's ignorance of the rules, but she also breathed a sigh of relief. She quickly took out the porcelain bottle and poured it into his tea. While taking the porcelain bottle back, she looked up.
The three people who had just been facing the window were now facing her and staring at her hands.
Yueniang: "..."
She said anxiously: "Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"
"What misunderstanding? Are you trying to make things easier for me?" Meng Yiqiu shouted, "Someone come! Someone wants to kill me!"
The next moment, several people rushed in from outside, so quickly, as if they had been waiting at the door for a long time.
Then someone handcuffed her hands and searched her body. The leader did not rush to arrest anyone, but took out something from his suitcase, put it on the table, pushed the cup of tea there, and said, "There really is a bug!"
Yue Niang was completely overwhelmed and stared at the man blankly, thinking that this expression shouldn’t be... surprise... right?
The next moment, she was covered with her head and taken away.
Soon, news spread that a woman had poisoned Meng Yiqiu. Coincidentally, a group of people from the Dali Temple were next door and caught them on the spot. Since she had used witchcraft to murder an imperial official, she was bound to be executed immediately.
