Changchun Palace.

A faint Suhe incense slowly rose from the cloisonné enamel Buddha's hand incense burner, and then dissipated into the air, and no shadow could be found.

In the dormitory, Concubine Cheng was lazily lying on the concubine's floor in a gown with a brocade makeup, her left hand resting on a soft pillow, and a young maid kneeling in front of her, who was carefully smearing her with Kodan at the moment.

"Such a beautiful color, only the mother can control it, Your Majesty will like it when you see it. ”

Hearing Suizhu's words, Concubine Cheng smiled slightly, raised her hand, and looked at the beautiful Kodan above, but what came to mind was the concubine who was flourishing.

A girl who has just entered the palace, but she is becoming more and more capable, and if she goes further, she is about to rank among the four concubines.

"No matter how good-looking you are, you're getting old. ”

Cheng Guifei raised her hand with emotion and probed the hairpin ring on the sideburns, and said with Suizhu: "Niangniang, this is laughing with the slave maid, Your Majesty also said yesterday that you are the same as when you just entered the palace." ”

Hearing Suizhu's words, thinking of His Majesty's words yesterday, the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook a little.

Seeing that Concubine Cheng put down her hand lightly, closed her eyes slightly, and let the palace maid smear Kodan for her, Suizhu relieved her heart.

"How long has Yan been gone?"

Hearing this, Suizhu hurriedly replied: "Back to Niangniang, His Royal Highness has been gone for more than two months. ”

Concubine Cheng, who closed her eyes and recuperated, said "hmm" lightly, and stopped talking.

After about a tea time, there was silence in the hall, and Concubine Cheng seemed to be asleep, breathing slowly and lightly. A hurried and subtle footstep broke the peace in the hall, and with the sound, everyone looked up slightly, only to see Sui Yue hurriedly walking in with a look on his face.

Seeing this, Suizhu raised her hand to silence her, but Suiyue completely skipped it, and walked straight forward and saluted, "Niangniang." ”

Suizhu was slightly stunned when she saw this, but she saw that Suiyue's face was soaked with sweat.

Cheng Guifei lazily moved her eyelids, then slowly opened her eyes and said, "What's wrong." ”

As if sleepy, Cheng Guifei slightly blocked her mouth with her fingers.

"Mother, mother-"

Hearing Sui Yue's eagerness and trembling slightly, Cheng Guifei's eyes immediately lit up, put away Fang Cai's laziness, and suddenly noticed something unusual.

Say. ”

Sui Yue glanced at the people around her, then got up tremblingly, stepped forward cautiously, and said something trembling in Cheng Guifei's ear.

Almost instantly, you could see a trace of panic and fear in Cheng Guifei's always gentle and dignified eyes.

"Are you sure?"

Almost at the same time as she asked, Concubine Cheng repelled everyone, and then shot straight at Suiyue.

Suiyue lowered her head tremblingly, and said with a blank voice: "Back to Niangniang, Fang is the words of Wu Yizhen and Chen De in the Dongchang prison, I heard that Mama Yu has personally written the guilt, saying that Niangniang, you and the Empress Dowager Xiaowen have made a private contract, intending to support His Royal Highness King Luo to seek the position of the crown prince, not only that, but she also intends to say that in the past, Cining Palace framed the crown princess Xiao Gu for poisoning, and the matter of installing the county lord of Anning into Yuqing Palace as an eyeliner, all of which have the participation of Niangniang. ”

When Concubine Cheng heard this, she almost suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

Ridiculous! How could she be as old and confused as that old woman of the Guo family, and use such ridiculous means!

The chill to her bones gradually spread from her heart to her limbs, and she could only sit there stiffly, her face already pale.

Suiyue looked up cautiously, she knew that this time the matter was not small, His Majesty's hatred for the Empress Dowager Xiaowen since he was a child was already too deep, so deep that even if he had a slightly closer relationship with the Empress Dowager Xiaowen, it was enough to make the emperor disgusted and disgusted.

There is a good saying, love the house and the black, hate the house and the black naturally.

What's more, the harem colludes with the intention of shaking the country, which is no different from plotting rebellion.

At this moment, Suiyue has seen the unprecedented tension and panic in the eyes of her mother.

"That crazy woman! That crazy woman! even to death will pull this palace into the water!"

Concubine Cheng clenched her hands tightly, her eyes were cold, and she wanted to strangle the crazy old woman who was curled up in prison immediately.

"Mother's anger—"

Concubine Cheng looked at the trembling person lying at her feet in front of her, and then said sharply: "Since you are a madman, how can you testify?"

When Sui Yue heard the sound, he said nervously and carefully: "Now that the East Factory has spread, that Mother Yu is pretending to be crazy, and now she is being interrogated, and it will be over as soon as Chinese New Year's Eve passes." However, the contents of the interrogation were kept secret from top to bottom, and the reason why they knew about it was only by inviting the interrogators to eat and drink and plucking them out of their drunken conversations. ”

"Okay, okay—"

Concubine Cheng gritted her teeth, her eyes full of coldness and regret.

When Mama Yu entered the Dongchang prison, she wanted to quietly extinguish it, but she didn't expect it to be avoided by her, and later heard that Mama Yu couldn't stand the misery in the prison and went crazy, so she withdrew her hand and didn't want to make any more extraneous branches.

I didn't expect it!

"Originally, seeing that she was crazy, Bengong wanted to keep her a useless old life, since that's the case, don't blame Bengong——"

Suiyue heard Concubine Cheng's indifferent voice, and couldn't help but raise her head cautiously and said tentatively: "What does Niangniang mean—"

When she received the killing intent in Concubine Cheng's eyes, Sui Yue trembled and asked: "Niangniang, you can send a secret letter to Your Highness about this matter, and let Your Highness go with you-"

"Do you think Hongu will be able to wait until then?"

Concubine Cheng almost scolded sharply, and when she saw Sui Yue's pale and frightened face, she gradually realized her gaffe.

Such a gaffe is something she has never had.

But how can she still be as calm as she used to be?

In any case, once Mama Yu's confession was presented to His Majesty, she did not turn around, and could only sit and wait for death.

Therefore, Mama Yu must not live!

She couldn't wait, now it was obvious that the knife had been hung over her head, and if she didn't take countermeasures, she was afraid that Xiao Yan, the son, had not come back from Nanjing, and she, the mother concubine, would become a sinner.

What's more, her good son may not be towards her, maybe when he hears the news, he can't wait to watch her die coldly!

From the moment Xiao Yan used that bullshit old gentleman's dream to match the emperor's appetite, win the emperor's heart, and cure the old disease with the "power of the gods" openly, she knew that this son's ambition was too big and was no longer under her control.

so openly forced her to cut off Imperial Doctor Xu's medicine in front of everyone, but he was silently resisting her.

Since the mother and son are here, how can she hope anymore?

She had been disguised for so many years, and she didn't believe that a little madwoman could ruin all her plans!

Whoever stands in her way must die!

"Tomorrow. ”

Sui Yue raised her head slightly when she heard this, and she also understood the meaning.

Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, according to the habits of each palace, Chinese New Year's Eve should be a good time to rest up and down, when the palace people with seniority in each palace will take the opportunity to rest, let those lowest-level maids on duty.

The Dongchang prison is no exception.

In the past, Cheng Guifei was too close to Dongchang, so that she could only get the eyeliner of Chen De and Wu Yizhen, but she didn't expect it, but it came in handy at such a critical time.

If there is no accident, tomorrow on Chinese New Year's Eve, most of the senior guards of the East Factory will sneak out to drink and gamble, and the rest must be people like Chen De and Wu Yizhen.

When the time comes, it will be more convenient to poison quietly.

"Go and prepare, I'm going to hear the news tomorrow night that the madwoman in the cell is completely dead!"

When Sui Yue heard Concubine Cheng's gloomy voice, she couldn't help but shudder, and then hurriedly replied, "Yes." ”

When she turned around, she heard the person behind her say again: "Don't let people see that the slut was poisoned." ”

With the moon retreated, the hall fell into cold silence, Cheng Guifei walked to the window, suddenly pushed open the lattice window, and let the wind and snow pour in, but did not move at all.

However, when the moonlight fell on her face, she found that at this moment, Concubine Cheng's gloomy side face was colder and more powerful than the cold wind of this wax moon!
