The Golden Hairpin

In the Tai Chi Palace, although there are hundreds of palaces, carved beams and painted buildings, it is not as magnificent as the Daming Palace. But after the Queen moved in, the palace people were very strict. The pavilions, pavilions, flowers, and trees were all kept in order. The decay of the Queen’s stay was swept away. Although the palace was no longer glamorous, the three hundred years of wind and rain made it difficult. It shows an unparalleled simplicity and elegance.

The emperor turned out to find her for the affairs of Concubine Guo Shu.

She is still the stunning beauty who dumped all beings back then. When Huang Zixian passed by, she was standing in the halo of the summer sunset playing with the parrots under the porch. Huang Zixian stood at the door, looking at her long hair that was flowing like silk from a distance, dressed in plain white clothes, as refined as ink. Even though Huang Zixia stood far away and couldn't see her face clearly, she was still stunned by her outstanding demeanor.

A woman like Queen Wang should be able to live very well. Even if the day before her seemed to have no hope of seeing her head, even if she was sitting in a small boat on the dark night sea to meet the undercurrent, she could still calmly and calmly live her best life.

Chang Ling whispered something in her ear. As soon as she raised her eyes to see Huang Zi Xia, she took the apricot drape and walked slowly towards Huang Zi Xian with Chang Ling's arms along the veranda.

Huang Zixia stared at the Queen and Queen in front of her. She seemed to be in a very good mood, with a slight smile at the corners of her lips. It was almost unexpected that she was already a thirty-five-six-year-old woman, and she did not have the slightest resentment of being in the palace.

She didn't stop in front of Huang Zixia, but motioned for her to follow herself to the garden behind.

Although the sunset has risen, the summer heat is still rising. Even standing in the shade of the trees, they felt the breeze and heat.

All the idle people and others had avoided behind. Queen Wang sat down on the stone railing under the shade of the tree, and Huang Zixia quickly said to her: "Congratulations, Your Royal Highness!"

Queen Wang glanced at her and asked, "Where does the joy come from?"

"The slave servant is happy and radiant when seeing the queen, and she will be back to the palace soon!"

Queen Wang smiled slightly and said: "It's just a little eyebrow, and I need your help."

Seeing her saying this, Huang Zixian already looked like a bamboo in her chest, so she hurriedly listened.

"I heard that the emperor personally pointed at you this time and asked you to investigate the case of the princess mansion. Is there such a thing?"

Huang Zixian replied: "Yes. But this matter is still unremarkable."

"I don't believe in Yang Gonggong going on horseback, there will be unpredictable cases." The Queen smiled at the low-hanging crape myrtle branches in front, and said lightly, "Of course, if this case allows the emperor to see the true face of Concubine Guo Shu, or It’s even better if it involves the unknown inside story."

Huang Zixian carefully pondered the meaning of her words, and did not dare to answer.

Queen Wang's eyes turned and fell on her: "Duke Yang, what do you think? Is there such a tendency in this case?"

"Now the case is unknown, the servant... still dare not speculate."

"Is there anything I dare not speculate? If you feel embarrassed, this palace can show you a clear path." The Queen raised her hand and gently pulled down the crape myrtle branch in front of her. "Since the princess got married, Concubine Guo Shu often went there under the pretext of visiting her daughter. I heard that the concubine never avoided suspicion, often drinking banquets everywhere..."

Huang Zixia didn't expect that she would provide herself with such important clues, but she was a little surprised and she didn't dare to speak for a while.

"Also, Princess Tongchang, have you raised a face head recently? If you are interested, you can also check it out, maybe you can gain something."

The face... Huang Zixia knew that what the Queen Wang was referring to should be Yu Xuan.

The rumors between him and Princess Tongchang really went viral in the capital, and even the Queen and Queen had heard of it.

Huang Zixian lowered his eyes silently, feeling a scorching blood twitching across his chest. She tried her best to whisper: "The servant girl... will pay attention."

"Naturally pay attention. I see you most likely to find the truth from clues, don't you?" She covered half of her face with flowers, but couldn't hide the slight upward curvature of the corners of her lips. This is the best time for this palace to return to Daming Palace. When this palace returns to Penglai Hall, the first thing is to thank you very much."

Huang Zixian immediately bowed her head and said: "The servant girl dare not, the servant girl must do his best."

After that, she stayed there, waiting for other orders from the Queen and Queen.

But the queen only waved her hand and said, "Go down, my palace is waiting to hear your good news."

Huang Zixian was slightly surprised. If only for these few words, the Queen can send someone to tell her, why bother calling her here?

But she can only wonder in her heart. She bowed her head to salute the King and Queen, then turned and walked out.

The overwhelming crape myrtle flowers were in full bloom before her eyes, and the setting sun, which was about to conceal the last gleam, stained the garden with golden purple.

She raised her eyes and saw a man in a purple dress standing in the window on the high platform of the palace in the distance and between the Zhuhu households in the small window, staring at her with a pair of eagle-like eyes.

Even though she was so far away, even if she couldn't see the person's appearance, she could still feel that his gaze was looking at her inch by inch, sliding down her forehead all the way to the bridge of the nose, to the chin, to the neck. His gaze was sharper than the blade of a knife, sharper than the tip of a needle, and the creepy feeling of being stared at by a poisonous snake made her suddenly feel a chill on such a midsummer evening, and even the arms were thin. Mao Li.

But the person saw her stiff body, but suddenly laughed. It's too far apart, it's not real, there is only a seeming smile. With his hand lightly resting on a transparent glass tank beside him, Huang Zixian realized that beside him, there was a round glass tank with a full diameter of one foot. There were several small fish swimming around in the tank. There are black and white, and the most are red.

Huang Zixia looked at this person and these fishes, and only felt that a terrible depression made herself very uncomfortable. She turned around, quickened her pace, and walked out of the small garden next to the Lizheng Hall almost as if fleeing.

She walked so quickly that she didn't see the man's side, and the Queen and Queen appeared soon.

Queen Wang stood by his side, looked at Huang Zixia who was leaving quickly with him, and whispered: "She is Huang Zixia, Yang Chonggu next to King Kui."

"Yeah." He responded casually, still looking at Huang Zixia's leaving figure. She walked fast, as if fleeing.

"Does she really have any value to us?" Queen Wang asked again.

He smiled and finally spoke. His voice is slightly higher, but his tone is low, revealing a long and depressing flavor: "What's the hurry? When you return to the palace, you won't know it."

Queen Wang raised her eyebrows and asked: "Can she really succeed?"

"Even if she can't succeed, you have me, and she has King Kui, so if you can't guarantee you back to the Daming Palace, who can protect you?"

Queen Wang pursed her lips slightly, and the peach blossom-like lips showed a bright blood color because of her energetic rejuvenation, which made her even more beautiful and could not be looked at directly.

The man didn't even look at her, but looked down at the little fish in the fish tank, and then said to himself: "Oh...it seems like the little fish are hungry."

He raised his hand, put his index finger to his lips and bite, blood suddenly poured out.

He put his hand in the fish tank, and as the blood bleeds away, the little fish in the fish tank suddenly moved vigorously, gathered around the source of the blood, and greedily licked the wound on his finger.

Queen Wang stood beside him, watching with cold eyes.

The fish gathered around his pale and slender fingers. The light red blood and the bright red fish looked like large clusters of blood flowers.

Suddenly she felt that she was a little uncomfortable, so she turned her head and refocused her gaze on Huang Zixia in the distance.

Huang Zixia wore crimson **** clothes and walked quickly to the end of the palace wall. It was getting late, she was like a little cinnabar dripping into the ink, and she was swallowed up.

Sometimes, Huang Zixia really admires Li Shubai.

Aside from other things, a person can take care of everything, worry about all yamen, and deal with foreign nations. It can't be regarded as a miracle.

She sighed with emotion, curled her feet in the household department and sipped melon seeds, holding the file that she had just brought from Dali Temple, thinking about the case, and watching Li Shubai sitting in front of the case to deal with various cases.

"Governor Wang, this is the editor's commentary on Lüshu you wrote the day before. There is a month error on page 37, and there is a mistake on page 16 and page 54. You can proofread it again. Governor Xu, you To transfer Jiang Weixu’s promotion over the years, he should be transferred to the twelfth shelf in the fourth file room in the first row of the archives office. The emperor will promote him tomorrow morning, and remember to submit to the Royal View. Governor Zhang, you will know the schedule tomorrow. Shi Lang, the transfer of Shi Chengyao to Yunzhou Governor was dismissed. Uncle Shi Chengyao committed crimes in Yunzhou in the past, and he is required to avoid taboos. Liang Tingfang, who served as Yanzhou Governor three years ago, is about to expire, and he can hold this position..."

Huang Zixia felt that her seeds really couldn't go on.

She held the melon seeds and thought to herself in silence, this terrible memory, would she remember how many leaves were on the tree in front of the window when she woke up one morning ten years ago?

Before long, the affairs of the Ministry of Households had been dealt with, and he took her to the Ministry of Engineering.

People from the Ministry of Engineering saw Li Shubai and immediately went up and down in ecstasy. They only needed to wait for the king of Kui to arrive in the evening, but Li Yonghe, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Engineering, needless to say, even the horse leader at the door was overjoyed.

As soon as Huang Zixian saw the huge pile of account books full of deficits, she immediately understood their pain-it was a great misfortune for the Ministry of Industry of this dynasty to spread out people like the current emperor who likes to build the palace and leave the hospital!

Every time Li Yonghe confessed his accounts, he felt painful: "Last year, the princess Tongchang came out of the pavilion, and the construction of the princess mansion emptied the national treasury. At the beginning of this year, the Jianbi Palace was built. Qi, I really don’t know where to raise the money. But now, I have to spend money again—just in the rainstorm the day before, several low-lying towns in the south of the capital were flooded, and the sewers were completely drained. If you don’t go out, the deepest part of the stagnant water is enough! You know, prince, the open canal above is okay. I don’t know how the money for this underground culvert is spent. Those workers are digging underground and are responsible for the waterway. People can only stand on it and take a look. If you see that the outside is clean and tidy, you will have to pay for it. In fact, what is going on inside, who knows? The waterway that has been dredged just a month ago has been blocked. Yesterday, I belonged to me. Governor Lu of the Ministry actually fell into the water and was drowned! Now there is a lot of discussion in the capital, saying that our Ministry of Industry is doing it on its own.

Li Shubai frowned slightly, took the account book, but didn't say anything, sat down and began to look through it.
