There are beauties in Shengjing

Chapter 64 There's Her Everywhere (Part [-])

It is said that later, the first emperor personally made a crested hairpin for Empress Xiaoxian to express his gratitude and favor for helping him gain a virtuous name.

Every year thereafter, the imperial court would specially choose a good day during the harvest season, and order local officials to hold a gathering to celebrate the harvest, and invite the local people to gather and have fun together, which was later named Qingfeng Banquet.

Later, officials changed and corruption rampant, and the Qingfeng Banquet gradually lost its original flavor.

This represents a good harvest feast, which just disappeared into the long river of history.

Although the Qingfeng Banquet was never held again, the link where girls of the right age showed their talents was well preserved.

After all, this was equivalent to a talent arena for the noble ladies of Shengjing at that time.

Those who win the first place will be rewarded by the emperor, not to mention.

At that time, the sons of the various families were also proud of being able to marry the noble daughter who won the ranking at the banquet.

This custom was abolished after Xiao Yuhai ascended the throne.

The root cause is that Xiao Yuhai fell in love with the daughter of a small official family when he was still an unfavored prince.

Because of the disparity in their identities, Xiao Yuhai suggested that the woman participate in this talent competition.

Because of Xiao Yuhai's inquiring information and advice for her, the woman won a good ranking in one fell swoop, and her net worth suddenly skyrocketed.

Just when Xiao Yuhai thought that the two of them could stay together forever, on the eve of Xiao Yuhai was going to ask his father for a marriage.

The woman climbed up to the prince Gao Zhi'er who was more favored than Xiao Yuhai, and completely abandoned him.

He was devastated by it.

And many years later, this custom was abolished at the beginning of his accession to the throne.

No one expected that today, nearly 20 years after Xiao Yuhai ascended the throne, this custom would reappear because of Concubine Huo's scheme against Su Mo.

The talent show of all noble ladies has ended, and everyone is waiting for it.

Waiting for the emperor, the queen selected the top three winners of this banquet like many years ago.

But he saw a court lady who looked like she was in charge, hurried in from outside the palace.

With a "plop", she knelt directly in front of the emperor.

"It's not good, empress, the lottery that was used as a reward this year was stolen."

As soon as Luo Shi heard this, he knew that the governor was tricky. Thinking that Concubine Huo Gui had been targeting Su Mo in the past, she began to worry about it.

She pretended to be furious: "It's unreasonable. Could it be that there are slaves guarding and stealing?"

"Check, check it out for me, where is the maid in charge of guarding?"

"Bring it up to the Palace for interrogation."

She has presided over the palace banquet for so many years, and this year there have been ups and downs.

This Huo Jingshan really didn't take her seriously at all, and played tricks behind her back again and again.

It's just that she continues to do what she does today.

If she doesn't need to take action, Huo Jingshan will kill herself first.

She really thought that Su Yi had fallen.

Is Su Yi's daughter so well designed?

Thinking of this, Luo Shi calmly looked at Concubine Huo Gui, to see how long she would be able to jump.

Compared with the fury on Luo's face, Huo Guifei's performance is interesting.

She spoke in an unhurried, unhurried manner.

"Empress, there are many people here today, so it may not be certain that some people fish in troubled waters."

"The maid in charge of this matter, the nanny is an old man, it is absolutely impossible for her to ruin her own job."

As soon as Concubine Huo Guifei said this, everyone knew that today's matter might not be easy.

Some of them were quick-witted, and they had already started to look at Su Mo's reaction calmly.

After all, today she was targeted again and again by Concubine Huo Gui.

Could it be that if one plan fails, another plan will be used?
Soon, the maid who was in charge of guarding the lost object was brought up. Seeing that the maid's steps seemed to be flustered, they were actually walking steadily.

The corner of Su Mo's mouth slightly raised a mocking arc.

The court lady knelt down in front of Xiao Yuhai and Luo Shi tremblingly, and then she remained silent, waiting for Luo Shi to deal with her.

Luo Shi quietly took a look at Xiao Yuhai, and saw that his expression was as usual without any signs of happiness or anger.

There was some concern in his heart, and then he turned his head to look at the kneeling maid, and saw that she looked as timid as a mouse.

It seems that he is not a master who will guard himself.

He was even more convinced in his heart that this matter had something to do with Huo Jingshan.

Luo Shi saw that the maid was almost frightened, so she put on a gentle tone and asked softly: "Why did the thing disappear, you should think about it carefully, and then tell the truth, I will not embarrass you. "

Perhaps it was Luo's voice that gave the maid confidence.

The maid slowly raised her head, and inadvertently exchanged a look with Concubine Huo Gui.

Only then did he stumble and say: "My servant... When this servant came over with something, I happened to meet a young lady going out. She...she bumped into this servant, and then helped the servant to pick up things together."

"I don't know, I don't know. Is it... Is it that time..."

The lady-in-waiting didn't say the following words, but she didn't know for a few consecutive times, if she had already expressed what she wanted to express very clearly.

The young lady who bumped into this court lady might take the opportunity to walk away with the lost item in the palace.

just
Steal something, stole it in the palace, or stole it openly at the banquet
If that lady's brain hadn't been kicked by a donkey, she probably wouldn't have done such a stupid thing.

Just when everyone was thinking that this person would be the one who did the stupid thing.

The maid behind Su Mo suddenly shouted, "Miss Su, what are you doing?"

Although it was you, the tone was obviously not respectful.

After all, she is a serious daughter-in-law, you are a mere court lady, what right do you have to speak to others in a questioning tone?
Following the maid's voice, all eyes were on Su Mo once again.

As well as the court lady kneeling on the ground, when the palace maid saw Su Mo, her pupils shrank immediately.

Immediately identified: "This... This is the lady, the slave that this lady bumped into."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became delicate. Su Mo might have made a mistake when he went out today.

She is there for dancing, she is for giving marriages, and now the head is gone, and she is still there, can't she be avoided?
Facing the maid's identification, Su Mo replied calmly, "I admit that before the banquet started, I bumped into you accidentally."

"But what am I doing with that thing? You were carrying gold and silver jewelry at the time. In Shengjing City, who doesn't know that I, Su Mo, have no interest in these Shilaozi gold and silver jewelry."

"So if you want to make me dirty, you have to change to a knife, gun, stick, or dagger or something? Besides, what day is it today? If I didn't hit my head before going out, I probably wouldn't be able to do this. of."

Su Mo said that in the end, he almost said directly, you are framing me.

The court lady was robbed by Su Mo, her mind went blank, and she couldn't find anything to refute Su Mo for a while.

Concubine Huo Gui looked at the court lady who was kneeling for a long time and couldn't speak, and cursed in her heart: idiot.

At this point, Huo Guifei actually knew very well that the matter of framing Su Mo today should stop.

But that thing has already been put on Su Mo, and the second one cannot be changed, so it is not up to her to stop it.

Bite the bullet, this play has to be sung.
