New Return of the Pearl: A Different Qing Er
Chapter 83: Telling tales?
"You're here at the right time. Let's go to Baoyue Tower! The Queen is making trouble again!" Song Qing didn't dare to waste time. She grabbed Xu Tian's hand and walked forward, telling her what happened as she walked.
"The old lady was there too? It seems that this matter is not easy to resolve." After listening to Song Qing's explanation, Xu Tian also became worried.
"There's no other way, let's go and take a look first!" Song Qing had no way to stop them. By the time they arrived, it was estimated that things would have already happened.
As Song Qing expected, when Song Qing and Xu Tian arrived, the emperor, Benjamin and Erkang also arrived. They just happened to witness Xiang Fei jumping from the building, and Xiaoyanzi jumped down to rescue her without hesitation.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked, but Song Qing and Xu Tian's memories came back to life. Then Erkang and Benjamin came forward to rescue them. Fortunately, Xiang Fei and Xiaoyanzi were both fine.
When the Queen, Madam Rong, Madam Gui and others saw the Emperor coming, they hurried downstairs to greet him, but they thought they could not escape.
Song Qing went forward to check on Xiaoyanzi and Hanxiang. Xiaoyanzi sprained her foot, but Hanxiang was not injured. However, she was obviously shocked and kept covering her face and crying.
The emperor was even more distressed when he saw this. He turned to the queen and asked her to hold them accountable. He even wanted to behead Rong Mama and the others. Even if the queen brought up the old Buddha, it would only make the emperor decide to deal with one leg of these maids.
Ziwei stepped forward to persuade the emperor to calm down. Although Song Qing wanted to stop her, Ziwei also had her own ideas, and Song Qing didn't want to restrict her all the time.
After listening to Ziwei's words, the emperor did spare the legs of several maids, but he still left a warning to them.
After confirming that Xiang Fei was fine, Song Qing and Xu Tian planned to return to Cining Palace first. After all, the Emperor was going to stay here, and it would not be appropriate for them to stay here. Xiaoyanzi sprained her foot, so Benjamin and Erkang took her back to Shufangzhai, and Ziwei also went back with them.
However, Song Qing did not expect that the queen was actually planning to flatter the old Buddha. Just as Song Qing and Xu Tian arrived not far from the entrance of the Cining Palace, they saw the queen and several maids walking into the Cining Palace.
"I really would like to thank her. Why is this queen planning to tell tales even though everything is settled?" Xu Tian became irritated when she saw the queen, and she couldn't calm down for a moment!
"Let's go and see how she plans to confuse right and wrong." Song Qing was also very annoyed, but there was nothing they could do but to endure it.
While the Queen was talking to the Buddha, Song Qing and Xu Tian were waiting outside. Not long after, the Queen came out with Rong Mama, looking proud and arrogant, obviously with the feeling of having someone to back her up.
"Are the two princesses going to see the Empress Dowager?" The Queen had obviously guessed the purpose of Song Qing and Xu Tian's visit, but she was not afraid. After all, what she said was true, just not comprehensive. What's more, she had just been frightened, and the Empress Dowager would understand her.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to come too!" Song Qing said with a smile. If you didn't know, you would think that Song Qing had a good relationship with the Queen!
"Well. You guys go in quickly, Rong Mama, let's go." Seeing Song Qing like this, the Queen didn't plan to say anything more. After all, they were both thousand-year-old foxes, and they knew what was going on in their minds.
"Farewell, Her Majesty." Song Qing and Xu Tian watched the Queen leave before entering the Empress Dowager's room.
The Empress Dowager was angry. What the Queen had just told her made her very angry, and she also remembered all the previous unpleasantness.
"May the Lord Buddha receive good luck." Song Qing and the other person paid their respects to the Lord Buddha.
Seeing this, the old Buddha's expression improved a little, but only a little. "Why are you two here?" the old Buddha asked.
"My Lord Buddha, Qing'er and I just went out for a walk, and when we arrived at Baoyue Tower, we saw Xiang Fei jumping off the building. We think you should have known about this." Xu Tian spoke first.
"I already know that the emperor has really been bewitched by this Fragrant Concubine. How could he threaten to skin the queen alive? This is really ridiculous!" When talking about this, the Empress Dowager became angry again.
Apparently the Queen's brainwashing was very successful. At least the Empress Dowager was so angry that she was about to smoke.
"Empress Dowager, this is not what we want to say. The scene we just saw was not as simple as you heard. Concubine Xiang was very determined when she jumped off the building, and her clothes and hair were torn, which showed that she had been forced. Moreover, after Concubine Xiang was rescued, she kept covering her face and crying, unwilling to see anyone. We think she was really very sad." Song Qing did not plead for Concubine Xiang directly, but explained the situation at the time, which would be more convincing to Emperor Dowager.
Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, the Empress Dowager's attention was instantly diverted. "Forced? Who forced her? I just asked the Queen to change her into a Manchu dress, and no one forced her!" The Empress Dowager felt really wronged. She just wanted Xiang Fei to change her clothes, so why did she force her to jump off the building?
"Old Buddha, we know that you will not force Concubine Xiang, but what we saw was indeed a scene like this." Although Xu Tian was a little confused, she still had a certain tacit understanding with Song Qing. Now she still knew how to talk to the Old Buddha, and she directly took over Song Qing's words.
"It seems that it was done by the Queen? Aunt Gui, tell me again what just happened in Baoyue Tower." After hearing this, the Empress Dowager understood that it was probably the Queen's order, but she still wanted to listen to Aunt Gui's words.
"Your Majesty, I was just following the Empress' orders!" Seeing that the matter was exposed, it was obviously impossible for Nanny Gui to cover up for the Empress. At this time, the most important thing was to protect herself.
"If that's the case, why didn't you say it just now!" After all, the old Buddha was a superior, and when she showed that aura, she scared Madam Gui so much that she fell to her knees.
"Grand Buddha, I was just frightened and forgot for a moment. Please forgive me!" Nanny Gui has been with the Grand Buddha for many years. She knows the Grand Buddha's temper well. At this time, she must be humble and maybe she can avoid punishment.
The Empress Dowager had no intention of punishing Nanny Gui, and now that she had admitted her mistake, she let her go without saying anything.
After being released, Nanny Gui hurriedly expressed her gratitude profusely.
"Although it is true that the Queen was at fault in this matter, Xiang Fei has already become the Emperor's concubine. It was just a change of clothes. Why is she still making excuses?" Even though the Empress Dowager knew the truth, she was still unhappy.
