Chapter 313: Danger
When Lin Long heard this, he turned his head to look over, and saw a strange palace maid in palace clothes, so he squinted at her, "When did the queen mother know that I entered the palace?" ”
"As soon as the lady entered the palace, the mother knew about it, so she specially ordered the slave and maid to come and wait." The strange palace maid said respectfully.
Lin Long frowned slightly, "Why haven't I seen you?" There was a slight suspicion in his tone.
"Back to Mrs., Mrs. doesn't recognize the slave is normal, the queen mother was going to send Sister Hongling to meet Mrs., who knew that later because my sister was going to the emperor's bedroom, Mama Jin was not worried about Niangniang, so I let Sister Hongling stay by Niangniang's side to wait, and the slave maid came over on behalf of Sister Hongling."
Lin Long carefully looked at the maid who replied respectfully, and said for a long time: "Since it was the queen mother who asked you to come to meet me, then you should lead the way, I just have something urgent to see the queen mother." ”
The strange palace maid showed a smile, and then respectfully guided Lin Long.
At this time, the wind and snow were getting heavier, Lin Long tightened the heavy clothes on her body, this year seemed to be colder than when she was in Beijing the year before last, what was the situation last year, she was in Ruyang City, naturally she didn't know the climate of the capital.
Rumei and Ruyan were on Lin Long's left and right, if it weren't for Lin Long's pregnancy, for fear of a business trip, Lin Long would not let these two people stay by her side, Aunt Xin followed behind Lin Long, and under Lin Long's seemingly casual glance, she even breathed.
The silver-clad palace is even darker at this time, and people are already hanging lanterns not far away, and it gets darker faster in this winter.
"Isn't the Queen Mother in the Imperial Study?" Lin Long casually found a topic.
"Back to Mrs., the emperor thinks that the imperial study is too far away, so he arranged another bedroom for the mother to go over, and it is almost there, and I ask Mrs. to be patient for a while." The palace maid turned around and smiled at Lin Long.
Lin Long looked ahead, and then looked at the road, it seemed that he was getting more and more deviant, because of the cold winter, there were not many palace attendants on the palace road, most of the people were roasting in the house, there was no need not to jump around, at this time this place was even more sparsely populated, a desolate appearance.
Although she has not seen the whole picture of the palace, she still has a little understanding of the geographical orientation, which is already a lot away from the queen's bedroom, Su Ziyu still has two days to go out of confinement, Zhu Yi is impossible for her to run so far, so far, she is almost sure that her guess is not wrong, this unfamiliar palace maid has a big problem.
She was secretly vigilant, and she must have guessed in her heart at this time, so she secretly gave an instruction to Aunt Xin behind her, and Aunt Xin's hand pressed on the soft sword at her waist, and nodded at Lin Long with a stern expression, her breath was almost contained in this cold air, making it more difficult for people to detect her existence.
The surroundings were already extremely empty, because of the early snow this year, the snow on the ground was quite thick, Lin Long walked extremely carefully with every step, because she was nervous but did not notice the cold in the air, she was held by the hands of the two maids and held their wrists tightly.
The two maids' eyes widened, they glanced at each other, and they didn't dare to say anything, after all, they had been in the Hou Mansion for a long time, and they had grown their knowledge, so they naturally practiced this calm work, and they were also secretly vigilant.
Lin Long was some distance away from the strange palace maid, and suddenly, the strange palace maid suddenly turned around and attacked Lin Long with a fierce face, like a glimpse in the air, which caught people off guard.
When the other party made a move, Aunt Xin quickly pulled Lin Long behind her, and the two maids also retreated to the side alertly, when the other party attacked, Aunt Xin pulled out the soft sword on her waist and immediately counterattacked, intersecting with a pair of short blades held by the other party in her hand, making a sparkling sound.
Lin Long's heart was beating wildly, although she had already guessed that there was something wrong with this person, she was naturally still a little panicked in the face of the other party's sudden attack, but she quickly adjusted her mood.
At this moment, several more people rushed over and were ready to pull Lin Long.
Lin Long didn't move, Aunt Xin had already stabbed the strange palace maid with a sword, and immediately swirled with her sword, she was already strong in force, even if it was a strong eunuch who came back this time, it was difficult to defeat the soft sword in her hand, and it was actually Lin Long's master and servant who were guarded tightly.
Lin Long's expression changed and changed, who else could dare to do this in this harem besides the Queen Mother? She didn't expect that the Queen Mother hated her so much that she wanted her to die in the court, and then looked around, under the shadowy lights, she could vaguely see where this was?
If she guessed correctly, there should be a moat leading to guò, because the snow in winter is estimated to be a thin layer of ice, and now in the middle of winter, the thickness of the ice is limited, and it is difficult to choose such a place for the people around the Queen Mother.
It's a pity that the Queen Mother is trapped in the palace, and the number of people who can be mobilized is limited, and Aunt Xin, who was sent to her by her husband, is very powerful, without her instructions, Aunt Xin did not directly ask for their lives, and immediately removed the other party's jaw so that the other party did not even have a chance to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
"Grandma, are you alright?" Aunt Xin was still holding her sword, but her face turned to Lin Long and asked.
Lin Long shook his head and smiled at Aunt Xin: "Aunt Xin is so powerful. ”
Aunt Xin grinned, "That's why I'm commendable." ”
She knew that she was a rough lady, and besides, Ye Xuyao was kind to her, and Lin Long treated her very politely and respectfully, so she deeply recognized the couple, and even more so that the two little guys made her love it badly.
Lin Long slowly stepped forward to look at the strange palace maid who was scratched by Aunt Xin's winter clothes, took the opportunity to cut her hands behind her back, and was kicked by Aunt Xin and broke her legs and couldn't even run, the other party saw her approaching, her eyes were full of horror, she originally relied on her own kung fu and thought that it was not difficult to clean up Lin Long, where did she think that the other party would have such a subordinate with high force value?
"You're someone sent by the Queen Mother, right?" Lin Long asked.
The strange palace maid looked at her with wide eyes, unable to speak, and could only make a sound "hmm".
Lin Long didn't care about her answer, his eyes looked at the moat with a thin layer of ice, "You chose this location to create an accident about my death, right?" ”
The strange palace maid was suddenly so surprised that she couldn't even say "Hmm", so she could only look at Lin Long's mouth in a daze.
Lin Long smiled coldly, "You really think I'm a fool." She pointed to the moat, "No one will step on it now, after all, if you are not careful, you will probably fall into the ice hole, and you will die on such a cold day, so it will be a pure accident if something happens to me, right?" ”
They happened to have a word, it was cold, and she Lin Long was in a hurry to see Queen Su, so she panicked, accidentally stepped on the ice and fell into the ice cave, no one would suspect that she died of his life.
No, Su Ziyu will definitely be suspicious, but without substantial evidence, how can she testify against the Queen Mother? Just like Su Ziyu's daughter who died in vain, it is difficult to even redress an injustice, not to mention that she is still the heir of the royal family, I am afraid that this treatment will be worse.
The Queen Mother wants to borrow her to warn and suppress Su Ziyu, otherwise she would not bother to create an accident of her death, this is to seal Su Ziyu's mouth, if the Queen Mother is more lucky, so that Su Ziyu and Zhu Yi have a gap, she will have completely achieved her goal.
The more Lin Long thought about it, and shivered all over his body, the viciousness of the Queen Mother was far beyond her imagination, and sure enough, it was not easy for anyone to mix in this palace.
The strange palace maid looked at Lin Long's eyes with extremely complicated eyes, she didn't expect Lin Long to guess it, and at this moment she felt even more cold all over her body, and she didn't even have the chance to commit suicide by taking poison, she thought about the consequences, and her back was wet again.
Aunt Xin tied up all the eunuchs and immediately asked Lin Long, "Grandma, what to do with them?" ”
Lin Long was about to answer, when someone came in a hurry not far away, she frowned when she heard the sound, it wouldn't be someone sent by the Queen Mother again, right? Aunt Xin hurriedly clenched the soft sword in her hand, stood in front of Lin Long, and looked at the person with a fierce expression.
"County Lord?"
Lin Long let out a long sigh of relief when she heard that the voice was Hongling's, she really couldn't withstand another round of tossing.
Hongling really led three little palace maids with lanterns over, and when she saw the four people who were bound, she was startled at first, and then her expression was dazed, "They are?" ”
Lin Long pointed in the direction of the Queen Mother's bedroom.
Hongling immediately understood, and then her face was furious, the Queen Mother did not change her life, and she actually wanted to assassinate Lin Long, "It's all because the slave and maid are late, which makes the county lord frightened." ”
She rushed to the place where the carriage was parked in the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, only found the carriage, but did not see a figure, asked someone, and then knew that someone had already taken Lin Long and his party away, she already felt bad at that time, and immediately looked for traces to find here, fortunately, Lin Long was fine, otherwise she didn't know how to reply to her master.
"County Lord, Niangniang is in the imperial study, Lingmei's matter Niangniang already knows, Niangniang let you rest assured first, don't worry, and she can solve this matter." Hongling Road.
Lin Long's heart warmed, Su Ziyu, the stepmother, sometimes treated her so well that she had nothing to say, "I know." ”
"The slave maid will lead the county lord to the imperial study." Hongling's gaze fell on those people, stepped forward and lifted the two of them one by one, and motioned to Aunt Xin to do the same.
Aunt Xin is also not ambiguous, and she also has one hand.
"County Lord, let's go."
Lin Long was slightly stunned, looking at these two people with blushing faces and panting, it was really good force, she secretly praised the two, and she didn't care about saying anything else, she quickly raised her feet and followed Hongling, nothing is more important than her sister, at this moment.
The atmosphere in the imperial study on the other side was very tense, and after the queen mother arrived, she and Su Ziyu sat on both sides of Zhu Yi, their eyes intersected, bursting out of thousands of sparks, each with their own plans.
Huo Yuan and Ye Xuyao stood aside.
The old princess of Duanwangfu cried: "Your Majesty, the courtiers really don't know that General Huo wants to make a mandarin alliance with Lin Er, so she went to ask the queen mother to become the grandson of the courtiers, and then she has the intention of giving marriage." Glancing at the emperor's expression, she said thoughtfully: "The son of the courtiers died early, and it is not easy for the courtiers to pull this grandson to grow up, but fortunately, he has mercy on the saint, but he has grown up to this age safely, but it is a pity that his knees are still empty, the emperor, do you say that the courtiers can not be in a hurry?" finally fell in love with the second girl of the Lin family, and the queen mother made a will to fulfill it, so she asked the saint to be the master, and fulfilled the wish of the courtiers, right? His eyes glanced at Huo Yuan, who was angry, "As for General Huo, another woman from a good family is hired, why do you have to compete with our Duanwang Mansion?" Besides, this person is your stepsister. ”
She bit the word stepsister tightly, just to let Huo Yuan retreat in the face of difficulties, and don't do such a shameful thing again?
The Queen Mother said in a timely manner: "Emperor, did you hear it?" If the mourning family wants to interfere in the marriage of the daughter of the Lin family, it is really a pity that the Duanwang Mansion does not even have a person to attack the lord now? Back then, Duan Wang Ye also had a meritorious service in saving the driver, and in the end he died to save your father, this is also to be remembered, you can't forget this kindness, Your Majesty, you say yes? ”
Duanwangfu died because of the old Duanwang Wangye's rescue, so he could be hereditary, otherwise he would have to be demoted.
When the old princess thought about the sad past, she cried even more.
Duan Wang Ye glanced at his grandmother, and under the hint of the eyes thrown from the edge of the handkerchief when his grandmother was crying bitterly, he also immediately kowtowed and said: "The emperor Mingjian, the minister does not want to compete with the meritorious minister for a wife, but the grandmother takes a fancy to the second girl of the Lin family. "Another look of painful change from the past," the minister knew that the minister was very messy before, and he tarnished the reputation of the royal family, and the minister regretted it, but it was a mistake made by young and ignorant, and the minister was willing to repent, and asked the emperor to give the minister this opportunity. ”
It's really better to say than to sing, Su Ziyu smiled coldly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Duan is almost a year old, and he is no longer a young man, such as a young and ignorant man? If he really repented, he would not have hooked his minister's daughter to do such ugly things, which was clearly malicious to rob his wife. "The prince of Qing took the opportunity to fall into the well.
When he got the news secretly transmitted by Huo Yuan, he entered the palace under the pretense of a name, and now that this prince has committed something, he can't wait to put him to death to get out of the evil breath in his chest.
The dignified county lord of his daughter-in-law, was divorced because of this ugly matter, and he didn't dare to say a word of dissatisfaction with the man's family, who told him to be at a loss, even if he was the royal county lord, he couldn't cuckold his husband at will.
Now this daughter Zhenri is clamoring to be with Duan Wangye, and he is upset when he sees it, so he has to detain her first, wait for this matter to fade away, and then give her a don't look for marriage.
This incident also made him a laughing stock of the royal family.
"You spew blood, how can I rob a wife?" Duan Wang Ye immediately retorted, "I know that you have a gap with me, and I can't wait for me to die, so as soon as I saw that I was involved in this matter, I couldn't wait to enter the palace and fall into the well, do you dare to say that you don't have this intention?" ”
