Chapter 3 — Kien Vi
Ta Van Hanh's face immediately changed. Ta Truong Tu frowned. "Tham Phu Ninh, what are you planning to do?" I don't pay attention to him. Mom quickly brought the book of Rites. I turned to the regulations on the royal concubine's phoenix crown and ceremonial dress, then placed it in front of everyone. "Although the jewelry Miss Ta is wearing is not called the royal concubine's phoenix crown..." "But it uses the nine phoenix pattern made of pure gold carved with delicate patterns." "According to the ritual..." "Only the main concubine is allowed to use it." Ta Van Hanh's face turned pale. She raised her hand to touch the jewelry. "I... don't know." I nodded. "I know now." "Take it off." Tears immediately flowed from Ta Van Hanh's eyes. "Sister Shen, I really didn't mean it." Ta Truong Tu took a half step forward. "That's enough." His voice turned cold. "Van Hanh just tried on a set of jewelry." "Why do you need to force people so much?" I looked at him. "Yesterday, the Royal Family was still there. said..." "She's just a younger sister." "Today, a younger sister is wearing the jewelry intended for the future Princess, standing in the middle of the Shen residence hall." "The prince sees..." "Is it the goddess who is forcing people too much..." "Or is it that Miss Ta has gone beyond etiquette?" Ta Truong Tu's lips tightened into a line. Ta Van Hanh cried even more fiercely. At that moment, a young man from outside came in and whispered: "Master, Lord Tieu, the Middle School of Imperial History, Phung Chi has arrived." Ta Truong Tu's face changed slightly. When Tieu Kien Vi walked in, all eyes in the hall turned to him. He was wearing a dark red official uniform, his expression was cold, and two letters followed behind him. (Literature is the title of the lowest-ranking official in the feudal administrative apparatus.) In my previous life... After I had a miscarriage, he was the one who investigated the problem with my eight nutrients. But when the evidence was brought to Ninh Vuong palace... Ta Truong Tu forced it down. At that time, Tieu Kien Vi stood outside the secluded courtyard, away from the screen and asked me exactly one question: "Miss Shen, do you want to report it?" At that time... I no longer had the strength to sit up. Ta Truong Tu grabbed my hand, his fingers squeezed so hard it hurt. I... Can't say a word. Tieu Kien Vi was silent for a moment then turned and left. In this life... He stood in the middle of the Tham Palace hall, his eyes falling on Ta Van Hanh's jewelry. Those eyes only stopped for a moment. Then looked at Ta Truong Tu. "The prince is also here." Ta Truong Tu replied: "This king has come to handle the housework." Tieu Kien Vi opened the file in his hand. "The marriage has not yet been concluded." "Miss Tham has not yet entered the Ninh Vuong palace." "At this time, talking about housework..." "I'm afraid it's too early."In the hall... No one dared to speak. Tieu Kien Vi looked at Ta Van Hanh. "The jewelry that Miss Ta is wearing..." "Is it given by Ninh Vuong Palace?" Ta Van Hanh tightened her handkerchief. "I... I don't understand etiquette." Tieu Kien Vi tilted her head. The two letters immediately lowered their pens to take notes. Ta Truong Tu's face was as cold as ice. "Tieu Kien Vi." Tieu Kien Vi did not raise his head. "The divine phoenix only investigates the royal court and harp case." He opened the first page of the file. The sound of flipping papers rang out in the quiet hall. "First thing to do." "Ta Thi Van Hanh has repeatedly used the identity of the female owner of Ninh Vuong Palace to enter and exit the banquets of the royal family." "What I witnessed today..." "One more thing can be written down." The towel in Ta Van Hanh's hand fell to the ground. … Three days later, the court summoned people to the palace to question him. During those three days, there was never a moment of silence in front of the Tham residence. Some people came to see the excitement. Someone gave me an invitation card to investigate. There were also people from Ninh Vuong Palace who brought gifts. Ta Truong Tu sent someone to deliver a box of Nam Hai pearls, a wish-fulfilling jade tree and a letter. In the letter there were only two lines: "After
When entering the palace, be careful what you say." "This king will give you the dignity of a Ninh Vuong Concubine." I conveniently threw the letter back into the box. Face... In my previous life, the so-called face that he gave me... It was during the banquet at the palace, letting Ta Van Hanh take his hand and walk into the main hall. As for me... I quietly walked behind alone. The royal ladies looked at me, some tried to hold back their laughter. "This Princess is truly generous." That night, when returning Vuong Palace, Ta Van Hanh was still wearing Ta Truong Tu's coat. She was sitting in my carriage, holding the fireplace in her arms. "Sister, it's too cold outside, please borrow my carriage for a while." I can only stand at the gate of the Vuong Palace, waiting for the servants to prepare another carriage. Ta Truong Tu stood behind her, glanced at me. "It's just a carriage." "You're the Princess, don't take it personally."... Now, I'm here. Hand over the entire box of gifts to the little prince. "Bring it back to Ninh Vuong Palace." Just as the little Tu was about to leave, I called him back again. "Tell the administrator of Ninh Vuong Palace that..." "The Shen family cannot accept gifts used to silence others." On the day of entering the palace, the sky was gloomy. In the royal palace of Phung Thien Palace, the Emperor sat on the throne. Several old royal family members stood on both sides standing in the middle of the palace. Ta Van Hanh bowed her head and stood behind him. Today she changed into a light-colored dress, with only a silver hairpin on her head. She looked like she was suffering a terrible injustice. The Emperor looked at me. "Tham Phu Ninh, why did you refuse the marriage?" I knelt down. "The goddess is weak and cowardly." "In Ninh Vuong palace, there is Miss Ta who is in charge of the inner court. I dare not enter the palace to compete with her." Van Hanh immediately knelt down.
