Concubine GL

Chapter 78 Next, we have more interesting things to do

When everyone saw Musk Lan wake up, they naturally escorted her to Ruhuai.

"Your Majesty, help me, Your Majesty..." She Lan couldn't help coughing, and she fell on the ground with tears in her eyes again, "The Empress is going to kill the servant..."

"Empress?" Ru Huai glanced at the livid Chen Lai, and asked She Lan, "What's going on? Why did the Empress want to kill you?"

"Now that the matter is up to now, the servant girl has said everything, so as to return the master justice... On that day, that night, the servant girl saw Yan Chang with her own eyes while the master was approaching Tan's side, so she pushed her. The master is not good at swimming. The servant wanted to save her, but Yan Changzai and Xianyun held the servant tightly, saying that if the Queen's plan is broken, the servant will be killed... the servant..." before finishing speaking, Musk Lan He started coughing again, pressing his chest.

Chen Lai was much calmer at this time, she covered her lips and smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this girl can talk, but my concubine has never done such indecent things. Now the geese who make trouble are often in Jixianyun It’s all gone, there’s no evidence to prove it, if this girl is allowed to talk nonsense, the concubine will not be able to clean up if she jumps into the Yellow River. The emperor’s lesson is clear, and the concubine is innocent.”

"Your Majesty, what this servant is telling is the truth!" Shelan knelt and moved forward a few steps, then began to cry again, "Xiaoyi, this servant is sorry for you..."

Seeing that this dirty servant girl was about to grab the corner of the Queen's skirt, Qingzhu frowned, and kicked it up. Unexpectedly, this light kick made the already distraught and unsteady breath. The musk orchid fell sideways, hit a pillar, and died immediately.

This is all right, another life.

Ru Huai was so angry that he couldn't convict the queen for a while, so he vented his anger on Qingzhu, even if he wanted to drive Qingzhu to the clothing bureau.

Unexpectedly, when the scene was chaotic, the Empress Dowager came to the scene with a serious face.

Qingzhuyuan belonged to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress was also her cousin.After listening to Ruhuai's angry explanation, the Queen Mother took a sip of tea, then smiled and comforted her: "What's the big deal about mourning the family, and it's not the first day that someone died in this palace, so why be so angry. Dao is merciful, Qingzhu is only nervous about her master, it is not a big mistake, I am sorry, I will punish her to deduct half a year's salary, and copy the "Sutra of Rebirth" for the dead servant several times, and it will be done. Empress, now that the witnesses are gone, it’s not easy to make a random decision. Why don’t you just wrong the empress and think about it for three months! It’s better to bury those poor girls as soon as possible. Restoring peace, isn't it?"

The Empress Dowager's tone was extremely light, and she didn't care about the so-called "testimonies", presumably she was determined to elucidate the empress.After hearing what She Lan said before her death, Ru Huai already believed that it was the queen who did it, but the queen mother opened her mouth, so there was nothing she could do, so Ru Huai could only ruthlessly gouged out Chen Lai who was smiling and frowning. There is nothing to say.

"Since this is the case, the concubine has received this punishment, and it can be regarded as accumulating some virtue for these dead souls." Chen Lai sighed, and wiped the corners of his eyes lightly, looking very sincere.

Wang Yin kept smiling faintly, this is indeed not a big deal, it's just the death of two insignificant concubines, it's just a matter of one sentence.However, this is just the beginning. The queen mother can keep the queen once, but it is inevitable that she will win the second time.And looking at the appearance of the emperor, he was extremely dissatisfied in his heart, and even more dissatisfied with what the queen had done.

Thinking of this, Wang Yin felt a little relieved, with Ru Huai's attitude, he was not afraid that the next series of events would not bring down the queen.

Coming out of Yunfei Hall, Wang Yin brushed aside the tallow tree branches at the entrance of the path, and stopped while walking.

It was almost late autumn at this time, and the tallow trees all over the forest covered the sky and the sun. Standing in the middle of the road, it seemed to be surrounded by a raging fire.That day was also here, and was dragged away by Qi Wuxue who came out out of nowhere, but now, even if he waited for a long time, that hard-to-ignore figure would not appear.

This palace is not small, but it is not big. It is just such a piece of land, and there are her shadows everywhere, squinting as if you can touch her with your hand, but when you look closely, it is empty and there is nothing.

Memory is really a headache, when you should be concentrating on dealing with Empress Chen, but you run out unexpectedly, which makes you want to give up, and just want to run away from everything.

Wang Yin stretched out his hand to pick up a leaf that was blown down by the wind, and suddenly remembered the dream of last night, those scenes were already blurred, the only thing engraved in his mind was Qi Wuxue standing in the depths of the lotus and waving to him, she was naked, slender and straight Her calf, light yellow clothes fluttered against her jade-white skin, she smiled wildly and presumptuously, and everyone in the distance was amazed by ink painting and distant mountains.

She just said "Sister, come quickly" and Wang Yin seemed to lose his mind, as if everything he had worked so hard to manage was no match for her few words and square-inch brows.

When I woke up from the dream, I didn't know where I was, and I stretched out my hand in a daze, but the side beside me was empty.

Wang Yin shook his head, and rubbed his temples with his fingers, when did he become so vulnerable, besides, it was a critical moment, how could he be fettered by wild thoughts.

The ancients said that those who achieve great things will have nothing to worry about.Thinking about it this way, it is extremely accurate.

Wang Yin smiled wryly and let go of the dead leaf. The leaf spun for a long time before it landed. At that moment, it seemed as if it had finally found its home, returning to the dust safely.

"Ma'am?" Yi Chuan couldn't hold back his temper, and finally couldn't help reminding, "Ma'am, we still have to go to Fengxi Palace..."

As he spoke, Huai Sang stabbed the uninterested Yi Chuan hard from the side.

"Why, it's just..." Yi Chuan glared back at Huai Sang not to be outdone—ever since he had this dead face by his side, he seemed to be suppressed by all aspects, feeling uncomfortable all over.

"Okay, you're right, we still have to go to Fengxi Palace." Wang Yin said softly, taking a deep breath with his eyes closed, and just took a step, "It's just the beginning, the person behind has not been punished yet, how come Can fall short."

Fengxi Palace was very deserted, and it had been half a month since the incident of Jin Yan falling into the water and died, Empress Chen probably learned a lesson from this incident, kept a low profile, followed the Empress Dowager's order, and ate fast and recited Buddha for those four people in Fengxi Palace. , Occasionally copied various scriptures, as if he was indifferent to the world.

Qingzhu passed by the hall with a stack of rice paper, and when she saw Wang Yin, she came down and bowed: "See Concubine Zhao."

"Is the empress here?" Wang Yin asked with Yan Yuese.

"Your Majesty copied the scriptures last night and got wind, and today I have a headache, and she is resting in the back hall at this time." Qingzhu said respectfully.

Wang Yin said regretfully: "Since I have a headache and rest, it's inconvenient for me to go in and disturb you. It's just that I miss the little prince very much recently, so I specially brought some snacks to visit the prince. I wonder if Aunt Qingzhu can help me?"

"This..." Qingzhu hesitated a bit, and after thinking about it, he still said, "Prince Gengxuan has been concentrating on his studies recently, and without the order of the empress, I'm afraid..."

"The place of my palace is not close to Fengxi Palace, so I came here on purpose, just wanting to have a few words with the prince, is it possible that aunt won't allow this, is it too unkind?" Wang Yin smiled. Said, "If you ask for the queen's permission, then I will wait here. I don't care, but if it spreads, I don't know how to describe you, such a 'cautious' servant. The Empress Dowager should be given the title of 'Unkind' for no reason?"

After finishing speaking, Qingzhu frowned, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Concubine Zhao is rarely here, how can she refuse people for thousands of miles, just because the servants were negligent, the empress also invited the servants to come."

Qingzhu looked at the door of Xuanming Pavilion with a displeased expression, and explained to the young master, and the young master turned around and let Geng Xuan go out.

Upon hearing the good news, Geng Xuan threw away the pen and paper in his hand, unexpectedly, this excitement spilled ink onto the green bamboo dress, thick and shallow.

Qingzhu took a deep breath and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Prince, this is the second time today."

Seeing this scene, Geng Xuan didn't dare to let out a sigh of relief, he backed away with his hands tied, bumped into someone with his back, and even shrunk his neck.Looking up, it was Wang Yin, Geng Xuan happily hugged Wang Yin, but still peeped out his eyes, looked at the green bamboo standing in the same place that had already turned into a lump of ice, and said softly: "Madam Yin, help! "

Naturally, Wang Yin saw the ink spots on the green bamboo skirt, and patted Geng Xuan's head with a smile: "I did something wrong, of course I have to apologize, but how could I save your life?"

Hearing this, Geng Xuan had no choice but to move over cautiously, far away from Qingzhu, just shy to speak, Qingzhu smiled and said: "Slaves are nothing more than servants, the prince doesn't need to apologize."

In Geng Xuan's eyes, this smile is comparable to a thousand arrows fired at once, every shot is fatal!Geng Xuan turned to look at Wang Yin when he asked for help.

"Since aunt said that there is no need to apologize, then let it go." Wang Yin smiled and took Geng Xuan's hand, walked a few steps towards the door, then turned to smile at the petrified green bamboo, "By the way, aunt, why don't you change it first?" Let alone the clothes, this one covered with stains is not very good-looking."

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Qingzhu wiped it with a towel, and followed the two out the door.

Wang Yin glanced at her and said: "Bengong is not some monster that cannibalizes people. Auntie is still afraid that Bengong and the prince will be alone and hurt the prince?"

"This... this servant doesn't mean that." Qing Zhu regained his composure, "This servant just ignores the prince's accusations."

Wang Yin raised his eyebrows: "It's up to you."

Geng Xuan pestered Wang Yin to tell stories, but Wang Yin couldn't resist, so he had no choice but to tell the story of when his mother coaxed him to sleep when he was young. Unexpectedly, Geng Xuan was instilled in the Four Books and Five Classics and the way of governing the country since he was a child, but he had never heard of such a thing. I listened to the naive story with such relish that I almost forgot to eat my favorite pastry.

And Wang Yin sneaked a few times at the green bamboos, they were all standing far away, even their expressions didn't change - if they were really under strict supervision, they were afraid that they would make something wrong.

Wang Yin couldn't help smiling inwardly.

Just as I was talking about *, a palace maid quickly stepped in from the small courtyard, yelling: "Aunt Qingzhu..."

"What?" Qing Zhu frowned, looking at the person coming, "Your Majesty is awake?"

"The emperor and nobleman Yu have come to Fengxi Palace. Isn't this the first time the emperor has entered Fengxi Palace this month? The empress doesn't care about taking a rest in the morning, and she is looking for people everywhere now! You also know that the empress has a bad temper. Very good, everyone around has been scolded!" The little palace maid panted heavily, and bowed to Wang Yin while talking.

"This..." Qingzhu thought for a while, thinking that the two of them would not be able to figure out anything for a while, so he said respectfully, "Mother, the servant has retired in advance."

"Please go ahead." Wang Yin nodded, smiling very kindly.

Seeing the green bamboos flying out of the courtyard, Wang Yin turned his gaze and fixed it in Geng Xuan's expectant eyes: "Prince, the story ends here first. Next, we have more interesting things to do."
