351 Slanderers
When You Xue returned to the side hall, Zi Ye was waiting for her, and when she saw You Xue appear, her voice was kind and soft: "If the girl wants to leave the palace, she doesn't need to go through such a lot of trouble, and the queen's token can enter and exit freely, which is also what Your Majesty means." ”
"Huh, so good?" You Xue was a little flattered, "When did it happen?"
The king came to dine in the queen's palace at noon, and when he saw that the queen was in a good mood, he gave orders. ”
It seems that this Beichen King still values the queen very much, and he is not too stupid.
I only heard Ziye say again: "Girl, Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess has come down, and she is enjoying chrysanthemums in the back garden with the queen mother." The queen instructed that if the girl came, they would go and enjoy the flowers. ”
The back garden is not a royal garden, it is a piece of land carved out by the queen in Yongning Palace on weekdays, which is used to plant flowers and plants. The queen's favorite is chrysanthemums, and although it is winter, a greenhouse has been built in the back garden, in which all kinds of varieties are fragrant and refreshing.
The queen was very happy to see You Xue coming, and personally greeted her and pulled her, "I heard that you also have a big brother named Nanfeng?"
You Xue noticed the burning gaze on her side, and endured goosebumps and said: "Back to Niangniang, the eldest brother of the people's daughter, Nanfeng, has not recovered after the shipwreck, and the people's daughter is worried, so I went back to the station." ”
"In this case, why don't you take your eldest brother into the palace together, the palace hospital is in a panic, and it is just right for them to find something to do. Gongyishuang's cold voice sounded from behind the queen.
The queen was surprised that Gongyi Shuang was able to open her mouth to show concern to strangers, but she still frowned lightly and warned softly, "Shuang'er, the palace is heavily regulated, how can you talk nonsense without your majesty." ”
She looked at You Xue again, smiled slightly and changed the topic: "Nanxing girl, I heard Prime Minister Situ say that you have been to Lianpo Mansion to see Aode, I don't know if there is a cure?"
After last night's massage technique, she could see that this girl did have some ability, and at this moment, in order to change the topic, she asked this question.
Seeing that the look in the queen's eyes was genuinely concerned, You Xue said: "Back to Niangniang, the folk girl's medical skills are shallow and helpless, presumably the hospital will definitely find a way to treat Prince Min Le." ”
The queen looked disappointed, shook her head and said nothing, and then she began to walk along the garden greenhouse to see if there was anything wrong with the bonsai, and then beckoned to Ziye: "The palace is lacking, you are free." ”
Soon, only You Xue and Gongyi Shuang and two palace maids were left in the back garden.
"Miss Nanxing, are you interested in going to the Queen Mother's palace with this princess?" Gongyi Shuang's cold voice was full of bewilderment.
This tone seemed to be coercive, You Xue glanced at her thoughtfully: "Please forgive the people's daughter's fear, the people's daughter is only ordered to accompany the queen's mother, and she is not allowed to leave without permission, the princess please take care of herself." She smiled politely, and when she turned to leave, she was suddenly grabbed by Gongyishuang's wrist.
A trace of black gas flashed on Gongyi Shuang's clear face, and her eyes flashed with golden light.
You Xue glanced at her in surprise, the pain in her wrist didn't make her feel any discomfort, "What else does the princess command?"
Gong Yishuang withdrew the secret technique in disbelief, feeling a stream of depressed qi flowing back in her body, her beautiful face was distorted for a moment, she stared at You Xue hatefully, and left angrily.
Seeing that the five-finger bruises on her wrist were slowly dissipating, You Xue frowned and pondered for a moment, and suddenly couldn't help but be more curious about the green pill.
In the backyard of the Beichen Palace, it was particularly quiet tonight, and all the concubines closed the palace door, as if they were afraid of the coming storm.
I heard that Hanyang City had been breached, and General Leng was captured.
King Beichen summoned all his courtiers overnight to discuss the war, and also sent envoys to ask for help from Haiguo, but Haiguo had already closed off the country and ignored it at all.
However, the queen, who had been making a fuss about the expedition, had been very quiet lately, and just after the hour of unitary, the queen went to rest.
In the Tianlu Palace, the Queen Mother leaned on the soft couch and closed her eyes to recuperate, listening to the personal attendants reporting the movements of each hall, and thinking about the news from the Jialuo Kingdom in her mind, saying that the King of Jialuo was seriously ill, and Tianjiuge wanted to confront the regent of the dynasty and the Guling clan, and temporarily suspend the civil strife of the soldiers Geping.
She sneered, how could a martial artist compete with the Holy Venerable, and she didn't want to think about how his now terminally ill sister Tian Jiuzhen was promoted to the position of the Heavenly Maiden, and how she entered the palace as a concubine, a fool who didn't know what to do, it was just a fool's dream.
However, Lin Zijian of this Gulan Kingdom is a tricky person, now that Hanyang City has been broken, if they are allowed to drive straight in, it will be a few days before the army will come to the city, but the patriarch hopes that she can stabilize this kingdom and occupy the main road to the sea country.
In this case, then you can only cede the land and give up the power, and then offer the beauty, stabilize the iron hooves of the Gulan Kingdom and no longer trample on it, but you don't know the weakness of Lin Zijian, otherwise the peace talks will be deadlocked.
When the word 'Nanxing' flashed in her mind, she heard the maid from the palace outside the door report: "Queen Mother, the Nanxing girl in the queen's palace asks to see you." ”
What a coincidence!
The Queen Mother sat up straight and slowly walked down the steps, "Xuan She's going to see her in the Flower Pavilion Pavilion." ”
When You Xue was brought to the Flower Pavilion by the palace people, she saw that the Empress Dowager Beichen was already sitting in the court, wearing a crimson civilian dress with a black thin velvet coat, and was squinting at her.
"The people's daughter Nanxing has seen the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Jin'an. ”
"Come on, the pretending etiquette will be waived, and it will not be idle talk to come to see the mourning family so late. ”
"The queen mother is really a heroine among women, and the people don't beat around the corner," she smiled slightly, and didn't wait for the queen mother to sit, she sat on the chair at the bottom of the queen mother, and said softly: "The people's daughter went out of the palace today and heard in the market that the remnants of the Haikou got the news that the king of the Japanese slaves was captured, and wanted to make a comeback and occupy the islands of the Black Sea. ”
The Queen Mother sneered coldly when she heard this, and her phoenix eyes were icy: "It's just a group of rabble, and it's worth talking about ignorance and fools?"
"The Queen Mother is naturally far-sighted and very far-sighted, but the Queen Mother can know that the Japanese slaves have always admired the strong as the respect, the so-called throne, and the strong live there, and there are still tens of thousands of Japanese slaves on the Black Sea Island, they will not wait for the return of the king without making any preparations?"
"Do you think the Japanese slaves will eventually join forces with the pirates against Beichen?"
"The young people don't dare to compete with the big countries, and they still have some confidence in joining forces to deal with the Beichen Kingdom under the city, and if the current Beichen King encounters the landing of the Haikou again, I am afraid that it will not be able to bear it. ”
"What a sharp mouth, and the demon girl Yao Jinling back then, it seems that the mourning family is clumsy, and mistakenly believes in slander, and even believes that you will be the pedantic and upright heir of the Qiong family. ”
"The people's daughter is honored, and the Queen Mother is falsely praised!" You Xue smiled faintly, and said: "Slanderers, villain tricks, let alone the sword of the tongue, can also destroy the great cause of a thousand years, the Queen Mother can distinguish between right and wrong, and she is really a virtuous queen!"
"Hmph, I said so much, but I just want the mourning family to say a few good words for you in front of Your Majesty, and let go of those group of Japanese slaves?"
Seeing her in the trap, You Xue smiled a little more sincerely, "Queen Mother, when the time comes, the Japanese slave clan will be grateful for the Queen Mother's holy kindness, isn't it the best of both worlds?"
At this time, a female official came from outside, seeing that the clothes were the high-ranking palace maids served by the Queen Mother, she knelt on the ground and said in fear: "The Queen Mother, something happened!"
"Yuehime, your guest is here, get up and talk well, don't lose your courtesy!"
You Xue noticed that this Yueji's eyes were a clear and crystalline amber color under the cover of the palace lamp, and the eyebrow bones and facial contours were similar to the people of the Gara country she had seen.
"Back to the Queen Mother, just now two assassins infiltrated the Queen Mother's bedroom, one was captured, and the other has escaped. Is it clear that Your Majesty will investigate thoroughly?"
The Empress Dowager Beichen's fierce gaze swept towards You Xue, You Xue calmly, "Queen Mother, what the people girl said, slander is poisonous, and it can also lead to trouble, if it weren't for the people's daughter asking to see the Queen Mother alone, the Queen Mother temporarily took the people to meet in the Flower Pavilion for an interview, and at this moment, the people are afraid that they will not be able to escape the crime of assassins, right?"
The Queen Mother got up, took the lead out of the courtyard with the support of the female official, and said coldly: "In the harem of the mourning family, no one has dared to stretch out his hand to the Tianlu Palace, whether it is a ghost or a demon, you will know after the trial!"
