367 Self-inflicted
Bai Muci knelt in front of the queen uprightly, endured the double pain on his face and forehead, bit his lip tightly and spoke:
"What my aunt taught me was that it was all Mu'er's fault, and Mu'er's morality was wrong, which disappointed my aunt. ”
Seeing Bai Muci lower her head and admit her mistake, the anger on the queen's face dissipated a little, but her face was still unhappy:
"Don't blame this palace for beating you, this palace just wants you to clear your identity, you are the daughter of the Hou Mansion who is high, and those concubines and concubines are worlds apart, are you not afraid of losing your value compared to them?"
"Yes, what my aunt said is that Mu'er is quick to talk for a while, so I annoyed you by saying the wrong thing, please forgive my aunt. Bai Muci lowered his head and said.
Seeing this, the queen's face looked better, she glanced coldly at Bai Muci on the ground, and then walked to the table and sat down in a deep voice:
"Okay, get up, remember what the palace told you, remember your identity no matter what you do, don't lose the face of the palace and the Hou Mansion. ”
"Yes, auntie. Bai Muci bit her lip, and then slowly stood up from the ground.
may have been due to excessive blood loss on his forehead, Bai Muci was unstable and fell to the ground again.
Seeing this, the queen had a trace of worry in her eyes, and hurriedly walked up to Bai Muci to help her up, and called urgently:
"Mu'er, Mu'er, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Muci shook his head, raised his hand to hold his head, and said weakly:
"Auntie, I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy. ”
"Get up quickly, go to bed and lie down. ”
The queen hurriedly helped Bai Muci to get up, but found that her strength was not enough, and she couldn't help shouting outside the door:
"Suxin!
Su Xinsuli, who was guarding the door, heard the anxious call of the queen in the house, and hurriedly opened the door and walked in.
Seeing the queen and Bai Muci squatting on the ground, they were both stunned, and then cautiously spoke:
"Mother's ......"
Hearing this, the queen turned her head and glared at the two, and her tone was quite displeased:
"Are you blind?
Seeing this, the two hurriedly lowered their heads and hurriedly responded, and then ran to the queen's side, and the three of them worked together to help Bai Muci on the ground, and only after putting her on the bed did they breathe a sigh of relief.
The queen wiped the sweat from her forehead, nodded to Su Xinsuli and said:
"Alright, you all stand down. ”
"Yes, sis. The two of them saluted respectfully, and then gently withdrew.
Seeing that only herself and Bai Muci were left in the room, the queen glanced at Bai Muci lying on the bed, and saw a large blood stain on her forehead, and couldn't help but say in distress:
"Mu'er, why don't you send the imperial doctor to you again?"
Hearing this, Bai Muci's heart tightened, if he called the imperial doctor over, wouldn't he find that he was pretending just now?
Thinking of this, Bai Muci shook his head hurriedly, pretended to be weak, closed his eyes and said:
"No need aunt, I'm just a little dizzy, let me sleep for a while. ”
Seeing Bai Muci's weak appearance, the palm prints on her face were still red and swollen, seeing this, the queen's eyes were filled with deep distress, and she couldn't help but secretly blame herself for being too ruthless just now.
took the thin quilt on his chest for Bai Muci, then nodded and spoke:
"Okay, then you have a good rest, and the main palace will go out first. ”
After saying that, he turned to leave.
Seeing this, Bai Muci hurriedly opened his eyes and shouted at the queen's back:
"Auntie......"
Hearing Bai Muci's call, the queen hurriedly turned around and walked to the bed and said urgently:
"What's wrong?
"Nope. Bai Muci shook his head.
Hearing this, the queen breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to Bai Muci:
"What's going on?"
Bai Muci lowered his eyes as if he was contemplating and thinking, and then raised his head to look at the queen with a sad gaze:
"Auntie, is it still possible for me and my cousin to get married?"
After hearing this, the queen's face couldn't help but stiffen, how could she answer?
originally thought that Ling Er took the initiative last night, and now the gap between the two should be unraveled, but I didn't expect that it would involve the truth about the cause of the palace maid's death three years ago.
And according to Ling Er's attitude towards himself, he already knew that the death of the palace maid was inseparable from Mu'er, so he felt that Mu'er was ruthless and vicious.
According to common sense, since Mu'er has become Ling'er's woman, no matter what the truth is, Ling'er should also marry her back to the East Palace.
But Ling Er is the pride of the sky, and she will be the king of a country high up in the future, how can she tolerate a woman with a vicious mind and a calculating herself?
Three years ago, Ling Er did not obey the arrangement between herself and the emperor to marry Mu'er, and now that three years have passed, Ling Er's hatred for Mu Er has not only not disappeared, but has deepened, how can there be a result between them?
If Ling Er is forced to marry Mu Er back to the East Palace, I am afraid that she will eventually become a pair of resentful couples, and according to Mu Er's heart, I am afraid that I don't know what kind of wrong things she will do.
At that time, not only Ling'er will be in pain, but I'm afraid Mu'er will also be in pain.
Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but sigh secretly, looking at Bai Muci who was looking at her eagerly, the queen pondered it and said softly:
"Mu'er, Ling Er already knows that the cause of the palace maid's death three years ago has nothing to do with you, and the reason why this palace asked you about this is because he told this palace. ”
Hearing this, Bai Muci's eyes widened, and his face turned white in an instant. looked at the queen with shocked eyes, and hesitated after a while:
"Auntie, you... You said that my cousin knew that the cause of the palace maid's death three years ago was related to me?"
"Yes, Ling'er already knows, that's why he hates you so much. The queen nodded.
After receiving the affirmation from the queen again, Bai Muci's heart suddenly sank to the bottom, and he looked at the top of the tent with a pale face, his eyes full of disbelief.
Why did my cousin know the cause of the palace maid's death? I clearly remembered that there were only two people next to the well at that time, myself and Bai Lin.
Bai Lin grew up with herself, so naturally it is impossible for her to betray herself, and it is even more impossible for her to tell others the truth about the killing.
It was impossible for him and Bai Lin to say, how did my cousin know? Could it be that there was someone else that night?
Thinking of this possibility, Bai Muci's face instantly turned pale.
All along, I only thought that my cousin said that he hated himself deeply for the sake of drugging him.
But I didn't expect that it was because my cousin knew that he had killed someone, so he would treat himself like this.
In his eyes, I'm afraid that he is already a vicious and shameless woman, right?
Thinking of Xuanyuan Haoling's hateful eyes looking at him, Bai Muci's chest suddenly became very heavy, faintly pressed a little out of breath, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a wry smile.
It turned out that he did all this because of his own suffering, but he loved his cousin so much, how could he let him go so easily?
No matter how much he hates himself, he can't change the fact that he has a husband and wife with him, and he must marry into the East Palace and become his cousin's wife!
