The medicine veteran's hand suddenly froze, his eyes moved, and he responded casually after a while, "Why did Niangniang say this?"

Queen Liu is so shrewd, she is very sensitive and has been staring at him recently, even if it is a momentary abnormality, she can feel it.

She said slowly: "Yao Lao really can't see it?"

Yao Lao met her eyes, his heart chuckled, and he smiled unnaturally.

"How could the old man deceive his mother?"

Empress Liu glanced at him seriously, and found that his eyes were open, so she opened her eyes and said with a light smile, "This palace suspects that this matter is related to Concubine Yue, and when she was bitten by a poisonous snake in the Imperial Garden Palace that day, Concubine Yue showed an extremely proud smile to this palace. ”

The corners of Queen Liu's eyes were slightly upturned, as if she was mocking, and her hands were clenched tightly at some point, making a creaking sound.

Yao Lao's lips moved slightly, and he stopped talking again, and after a while, he pursed it again, and was silent.

He sighed inwardly.

Niangniang should know the truth, but if she shakes things out at this juncture, it will inevitably add fuel to the fire, where can Niangniang bear it.

These things are still solved by him for Niangniang.

Yao Lao was still meditating, and Queen Liu smiled lightly: "Yao Lao is also tired, this palace will let people take you down to rest first, and this matter will bother you." ”

Yao Lao retreated outside the hall in response, glanced in the direction of the Immortal Palace, and the fierceness in his eyes flashed.

Queen Liu looked at his back, her eyes darkened.

She said coldly, "Xing'er, what did you just say to Yao Lao outside the hall?"

Xing'er was stunned, then knelt down, and replied: "Niangniang, the slave maid just saw Yao Lao and the prime minister enter the hall together, and felt that Niangniang had something to say and talked to the prime minister in front of Yao Lao, so she found a reason to let Yao Lao stay outside the palace for a while. The slave and maid made their own decisions and asked the mother to forgive her sins. ”

Xing'er's palms were so nervous that cold sweat broke out.

I thought I could act secretly, but I didn't expect that I couldn't hide it from my mother's eyes.

Empress Liu was silent for a long time, and said with a smile: "Is it really just like this?

Queen Liu's eyes were cold to the bone, and Xing'er felt so creepy for the first time. Her face turned pale the moment she brushed, and she quickly buried her head, her lips trembling.

Mother, after all, it has changed.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel distressed, and the corners of her eyes moistened unconsciously.

She said: "Niangniang, what kind of person is the slave and maid, how can you not know, and how dare you deceive you." ”

Queen Liu sighed, helped her up, and said lightly, "Get up." ”

The moment Xing'er looked up, tears glistened, and Queen Liu was stunned at first, and then slightly depressed.

"Xing'er, there is nothing left in this palace, and I don't want to be deceived by the closest and most trusted people around me. ”

Here's a reminder from her!

Xing'er's heart was sour again, she secretly rubbed the corners of her eyes, and choked up: "Niangniang, no matter what happens, the slave will follow you." ”

"That's it. Queen Liu shook her head and muttered, as if talking to herself.

Xing'er wanted to speak again, but Queen Liu walked out of the hall.

Xing'er hurriedly followed, looked at her lonely back, and kept silent.

After a long time, Queen Liu said, "This used to be the favorite place of the palace, but now, those good memories are gone." Immediately, she glanced down at her hands, "These hands are stained with a lot of blood, but I didn't expect it to be the blood of my loved ones in the end." ”

She laughed dryly, but her face was wrinkled more ugly than crying, and tears were dripping down.

Her life has come to an end!

Xing'er's lips moved, but she didn't say anything.

After a while, Queen Liu's complexion suddenly changed, and she bit her lip fiercely, and the corners of her lips were stained red with blood.

Her fingers creaked and creaked, unusually crisp.

She swore viciously: "What this palace can't get, others can't think of." ”

……

Following

"Mother, someone is one step ahead of us. Liuli said and handed the letter in his hand to Su Zixu.

Su Zixu looked at it, frowned and wondered, "What does she want to do?"

Liu's sword is really off the edge this time, but what is her purpose.

Liuli said: "Niangniang, is that person the queen's mother?"

Su Zixu nodded.

Liuli couldn't help but be taken aback, and only came back to her senses after half a ring, and she couldn't figure it out, "Niangniang, why did she do this?"

At this juncture, sending someone to prevent the emperor from returning to the palace will do her no good.

Su Zixu smiled and asked rhetorically: "Do you think that if the emperor is not in the palace, who can control the court and the harem?"

Liuli understood at one point, and the words in her mouth blurted out, "It's the queen mother." Does Niangniang mean that she wants to control the situation and avenge the eldest prince?"

Su Zixu lowered his eyes, pondered carefully, and bowed his head slightly.

Liu Shi is too calm, and it is really scary to think about it so calmly in this situation.

"If Bengong guessed correctly, she prevented the emperor from returning to the palace in order to smoothly implement her plan. ”

And her plan is not as simple as revenge.

Su Zixu rubbed his hands.

What exactly does the Ryu family want to do?

Liuli's eyes sank, and she said with a dark and anxious color: "Niangniang, if this is the case, then isn't the situation of you and the third prince very dangerous? Queen Liu lost her own child, and she must not be able to tolerate sand in her eyes. ”

Su Zixu shook his head and said with a light smile: "No, the palace still has to be grateful to her, so that the palace will not have to spend a lot of time on the layout, and when the dust settles, the emperor will only find clues from her." ”

In this way, all her horses can be summoned to the capital and wait for her instructions.

Since Empress Liu has taken this step, she will definitely leave clues, and even if Emperor Yan is held accountable in the future, she can easily put aside her responsibilities, wouldn't she kill two birds with one stone?

She instructed: "Liuli, pass on the order of the palace to call Dugushuang back to Beijing, and everyone in the Nine Gates also quickly rushed to the capital in case of emergency." ”

Emperor Yan is surrounded by masters like clouds, even if he is ambushed, he can quickly break out of the encirclement, and the Liu family did not hurt him, he will definitely speed up his return to Beijing, and they have little time left.

She quickly wrote two letters and handed them to Ruri.

Liuli retreated.

It's just a moment of effort, and Su Zixu has already arrived at the side hall. The side hall is full of palace people inside and out, and the house is surrounded by water.

Seeing this, the palace people quietly retreated to the sides, and as soon as the third prince saw her, they threw themselves into her arms.

He pouted and said, "Mother, Mama won't let Yao'er go to you." ”

Su Zixu scratched his nose and chuckled, "Does Yao'er miss her mother?"

His voice was soft and glutinous, "It's conceivable." ”

Su Zixu took him to the soft couch and sat down, and even Mama Lian walked over when she saw this.

She asked, "Mama, is there anything unusual in the side hall these days?"

Mama Lian replied, "Back to Niangniang, everything is as usual for the time being." ”

Su Zixu glanced around at the palace people in the house, and ordered: "Next, we must strengthen our precautions, and we can't let the people of Kunning Palace take advantage of the situation." ”

After that, she turned her head and glanced at the third prince, and told seriously, "Yao'er, from today onwards, you can't take a step out of the Living Palace, understand?"
