Reborn Concubine of Destiny

Chapter 10 Unexpected changes in the palace banquet

"Huh? According to what you can see, where might the emperor be?" Emperor Jingwen was a little excited, looking at the painting, he didn't know the meaning for a moment.

Master Shen Lan smiled slightly, but she was thinking about how happy Shen Jianxi was when she held the painting, "Oh, Shen Jianxi, you won't be proud for long..."

"Your Majesty, please take a look." Master Shen Lan respectfully replied, "Assume that this painting is where the Emperor is. This painting was signed on February [-]th, the second year of Zong Yu. I heard from my father that the Emperor became a monk at the end of the first month." Yes, if the emperor went directly to Master Yunshu, then it should take about half a month from the capital to the place where Master Yunshu is. Master Yunshu lives reclusively in the mountains and forests, and no one knows where he is. Look, the folk girl has seen some clues. This drawing paper is rough and yellowed, called copying paper, and it belongs to a special product called Kusha City in the northeast. The ink pad on the signature has faded, and it should be inferior ink pad, which proves the place where the painting was made. The surrounding area is very barren. It takes only ten days to ride a fast horse from the capital to Kusha City, and it takes about half a month to arrive in a carriage. In this painting, the monks face the northeast and walk in the direction of light. The lotus lake coincides, and there is a red bird running towards the northeast corner in the distance, which reminds Minnv of Suzaku, one of the four great beasts. Investigation, but the man has not come back, so my father found someone from Kusha City in the capital, and verified that there is a Suzaku Tower in the south of Kusha City, which has always been a place where scholars and scholars gather..."

Master Shen Lan, who was fond of talking, didn't notice Emperor Jing Wen's increasingly bruised face, until Emperor Jing Wen suddenly waved his sleeves and shouted, "Nonsense!" Master Shen Lan hurriedly knelt on the ground in fright, although the rest of the people didn't know what it was. Yuan also knelt down and shouted "The emperor is angry."

Emperor Jingwen took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He looked at Master Shen Lan, who was kneeling on the ground trembling, and his voice trembled, "Get up, I was impulsive just now, and I will send someone to Zhuque Tower." Master Lan's face was pale, biting his lower lip and trembling, Emperor Jingwen waved his hand, "Let's call it a day, I'm tired." So one of the court ladies went to find his mother with the Ninth Prince in his arms, and another court lady went to collect him. Master Shen Lan's painting.

Sweat dripped from the palms of Master Shen Lan's hands, and he retreated to his father, biting his lower lip aggrievedly, "Father..."

Seeing this, Shen Xun couldn't bear it very much, and couldn't say anything right now, so he hurriedly packed up and led his family back home.

Along the way, Shen Xun couldn't figure out why, who would have expected that Master Shen Lan's words would make the emperor Long Yan furious, Shen Xun thought to himself, the emperor's face became more and more pale when he heard about Kusha City, Until the last hearing of Suzaku Tower, he was even more angry and waved his sleeves.Did something go wrong, or did the Zhuque Building violate the emperor's taboo?

"I never thought it would be like this...Father, this matter can't affect our family, right?" Master Shen Lan was trembling and crying, after all, it was his own mistake.Shen Xun sighed heavily, "I don't blame you for this matter, it's because the emperor made some mistakes, didn't you see that he accepted your opinion in the end?"

"But I still made the emperor angry." Master Shen Lan wiped his tears, and Cheng Shi looked at him even more distressed, but Shen Moying, who was silent at the side, suddenly asked, "Sister, it was you who came up with the flowers." meaning?"

What Shen Moying said was unintentional, and the remaining three people were all startled, Cheng shook his head, "No way."

Shen Xun thought about it in every possible way, and felt that this matter had nothing to do with Shen Jianxi. Shen Jianxi just expressed his opinion with joy, and the painting that was awarded to her in the end was also a fake copied by the painter these days. How could Shen Jianxi expect to say what he said in the end? Master Shen Lan will bring it in front of the emperor and say it, how can he expect the emperor to be angry?

"It was the fourth sister who thought of it!" Master Shen Lan couldn't care less about the shame at the moment, and shouted, "It's her! It's her who framed me!"

At this moment, Shen Jianxi was standing in front of the low table, staring at the flowers spreading on the table, smiling slightly.She thought of Master Shen Lan standing in front of her in her previous life, holding Chu Pianrong's arm and smiling like a flower, and slowly said to herself, "It's yours, it's yours after all, no one can take it away..."

What's the use of keeping such a sister?Shen Jianxi often wakes up in the middle of the night and returns to that humiliating past life, repeating in her dreams the scene of losing her right hand because of Master Shen Lan... Master Shen Lan said with a smile, "Fourth sister, don't you know how to write poetry and paint? Now ...I'm afraid I don't have any hand to hold a pen anymore."

Shen Jianxi's heart was filled with dense hatred. She originally wanted to keep Master Shen Lan, but Master Shen Lan wanted to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and use the meaning of flowers that she had learned to gain attention in front of the emperor. Oh, I want to Beautiful!

In the previous life, Shen Jianxi entered the Prince's Mansion and knew a lot of court secrets. He even learned that Emperor Jing Wen's biological mother was a singer of extremely low status. In the Suzaku Building in Shacheng, no one knew him.Playing the piano upstairs every day, receiving past literati and refined scholars, there are always masters protecting the Zhuque Tower, so that the singer can be safe and sound.Emperor Jingwen found out about this shortly after he ascended the throne. Of course, Shen Jianxi didn't know what method he used.In short, this incident was revealed later, Emperor Jing Wen had no choice but to set fire to the Zhuque Tower, and found someone to replace his mother to die in the Zhuque Tower, and then transferred his biological mother to a safe place.

When Shen Jianxi told his father the meaning of the flowers going up, he expected that Emperor Jingwen would be furious and might implicate the Xiangfu.But Shen Jianxi is not afraid, she has died once, even if the Prime Minister's mansion declines because of this, she is not afraid of it.

This is Shen Jianxi's strategy!She didn't want to fight with her concubine or sister, she just wanted to stand opposite Zhao Bingke and win the country he dreamed of!In this small Shen residence, even if the fight is turned upside down, what's the use?

But if someone blocked her on the road of revenge, then no wonder she cleared the obstacle...

Just as Shen Jianxi was thinking, the servant girl Qiu Deng ran in to announce, "Miss, the master and madam are here!"

"Oh? I came back very early." Shen Jianxi's eyes lit up, and then turned off again.

"Jianxi." Before he could worry too much, Shen Xun had already entered the door and waited at the screen. Shen Jianxi went out to greet him, saluting gracefully, "Father, mother..." More often, when Shen Jianxi called Cheng Shi alone, it was still the same. Those who are willing to call her mother to distinguish her from their own mother.

"Well, get up." Shen Jianxi looked over, but didn't see the elder brother and elder sister, for some reason.

After entering the room, Shen Xun stared at the flowers on the low table, and became angry again, "Is it true that the emperor may be in the Zhuque Tower?"

"Daughter analyzed it for Dad before, does Dad have any questions?" Shen Jianxi stood aside obediently.

Cheng looked over coldly, "Why are you so sure?"

"My daughter just made some suggestions to my father, and my father agreed at the time, and gave the daughter the flowers on the line. Looking at it these days, my daughter seems to feel that the paper of this painting has changed. It doesn't look like a copy. It's paper." Shen Jianxi sneered in his heart.

"How do you recognize the mosaic paper?" Shen Xun asked now, he was happy for a while before, and forgot to pursue too many details.

"It's in the book." Shen Jianxi tilted his head, "Daddy, did something happen?"

Shen Xun couldn't tell the truth yet, so he had to suffer from being dumb, but seeing Shen Jianxi's innocent face with his head tilted, Shen Xun had no choice but to shake his sleeves, "That's it! That's it!" and walked away.Seeing this, Cheng had no choice but to give Shen Jianxi a look, and hurriedly followed.

The servant girl Qiu Deng was confused, "Miss, it seems that the master and madam are very angry."

"From now on, when they are busy." Shen Jianxi glanced lightly, and the flowers on the table went up, and all the missions had been completed, and it was time to seal the box and see the light of day.

During dinner at night, Master Shen Lan felt wronged in every way, stared at Shen Jianxi, gritted his teeth, but finally did not have an attack.Only four people at the dinner table knew what happened in the palace.The old lady Bailishi's body was still in good health, seeing that Shen Xun's complexion was not good, she asked, "Chuan'er, what's bothering you?"

"Mother." Shen Xun just wanted his mother to analyze the matter, but stopped talking, planning to ask for advice in private, "It's okay, my son just lost his mind."

"Why are you distracted while eating?" Baili said with a smile, there was nothing he could do with this son.

After dinner, Shen Jianxi helped his mother, Mrs. Li, to go out, but as soon as she went out, she was stopped by Master Shen Lan.

"Fourth Sister!" Master Shen Lan shouted, and chased after her, "Is Fourth Sister free for a while? Come with me to the kitchen for supper."

"Okay, I'm free." Shen Jianxi nodded, and asked Qiu Deng to help Mrs. Li go back to the courtyard, while he stayed beside Master Shen Lan.

The two went to the vacant small kitchen together, Master Shen Lan pointed to the raw materials on the stage and said to Shen Jianxi, "This is what I prepared before, and I want to make some pastries for my parents for supper, but I was afraid that I would not have enough time. I just want to ask you to help me do it together, sister don't mind?"

"My sister is really thoughtful. If my parents taste the supper you made by yourself, they will definitely be very touched." Shen Jianxi glanced at the stage, flour, sweet-scented osmanthus, everything that one expects to find, presumably to make osmanthus cake.

Master Shen Lan shook his head upon hearing this, "No, it's my parents who have tasted the supper we made, and they will definitely be very touched."

"Yeah." Shen Jianxi smiled, "It's my sister who has the heart, this time my sister is in her favor."

"Okay, let's start." Master Shen Lan sneered in his heart, heh, do you want to take advantage of yourself?Let's see if it's light or bad luck.

Master Shen Lan knew that Shen Jianxi could make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, so after returning home, she secretly asked the maid Ruzhuo to prepare things and put them in the small kitchen, and told her not to be seen by others. Now, Ruzhui knocked on the door, " Miss, the master is calling you." After hearing this, Master Shen Lan was taken aback for a moment, "Sister, I... can't get away either."

"Sister, go and come back later." Shen Jianxi said.

"But what if it takes a long time for me to go..." Master Shen Lan hesitated, and the door was still urging, so Master Shen Lan simply gritted his teeth and said, "Sister, can you do it yourself? I will pick it up after I finish it." , and then say you did it."

"How can I do that? It's my sister's idea. If you want to say it, say that my sister and I did it together." Shen Jianxi knew that there must be tricks in it, and was testing Master Shen Lan's reaction.

"Well, sister, you should work harder." Master Shen Lan nodded and hurried away like Ruzhuo.

Shen Jianxi didn't know what Master Shen Lan had mixed with these raw materials, but he knew that Master Shen Lan must be designing himself.He simply followed his plan, stared at the door for a while, and walked out.
