23: In times of shock, tricks appear
"Your Majesty, the Queen, and I believe that Concubine Lian's paintings are the best."
"Weichen thinks so!"
"Weichen agrees!"
All the courtiers almost unanimously agreed that Xiyin's painting of mountains and rivers was the most exquisite and ingenious of all the paintings. Guan Ruyi almost bit off his tongue because he did not expect that they would unanimously choose Shen Xiyin's painting.
Didn't she say that she doesn't know how to play chess, calligraphy or painting?
Secretly, Xiyin glanced at Xiyin hatefully, but Xiyin pretended not to notice. With a smile on her lips, she saluted the courtiers and gave the painting to the Minister of War.
——Honestly, Xiyin feels very fond of such a bold and handsome guy.
The Minister of War was very happy to accept Xiyin's painting, but when he put it in his arms, his face suddenly turned red. When Xiyin decided to give the painting to him, Ouyang Liefeng's face was as cold as ice. Same, he said coldly to the queen impatiently.
"Give her the golden abacus!"
Do you need to say anything more now that the victory has been decided? Damn that woman, she actually gave the map of mountains and rivers to the Ministry of War, even though the Ministry of War really needed such a magnificent painting.
Ouyang Liefeng's heart felt like something was stabbing him, and he felt uncomfortable all over. Looking at Xiyin's smile, he felt angry.
It seems that there are a little less interesting things in the harem, and she has a little more leisure time.
The four palace maids were walking elegantly in green palace attire. The leading palace maid carefully handed a delicate carved jade plate to Xiyin. Xiyin gave a slight signal, and the colorful butterfly behind him stepped forward to catch it. I gave him a gift and thanked him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, the Queen..."
Just when Xiyin's uneasiness became heavier and heavier, and she was about to quickly exit Qifeng Palace, suddenly there was a loud "bang..." in front of her, and then she heard the palace concubines screaming... …
"The Queen...the Queen..."
Xiyin looked up and saw that the queen in front of her didn't know what had happened. She suddenly fell to the ground, her face turned as white as snow, and she suddenly became lifeless. She looked like she had been poisoned.
"What are you still doing? Go and ask for the doctor."
The queen's leader eunuch Liu Dekai knocked out the little eunuch next to him with a swipe of his fly whisk. He screamed in a shrill voice. The little eunuch jumped up from the ground and ran out of the palace.
Everyone was also in panic, and they were so anxious that they didn't know what to do. Ouyang Liefeng quickly walked to Guan Ruyi and took her pulse.
Xiyin also clearly saw that the queen's originally red lips gradually turned pale...and her heartbeat began to become intermittent.
——What a powerful poison.
Xiyin's eyes sharpened, and she began to understand why she felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart when she first entered Qifeng Palace. It turns out...that this is what happened.
"Please make the decision, Your Majesty, someone must have harmed the Queen... Please give me a clear warning from Your Majesty..."
