Wu Yong was even more flattered, and even kowtowed a few times before standing up, he was the personal eunuch next to Guo Ping, and he was also the chief eunuch in the palace, because he had to follow Guo Ping often, so when he came to the queen's side, there was always a big eunuch coming. This time he came in person, but the big eunuch next to the emperor went to other palaces to deliver things, so he sent him over.

Originally, I only thought that this Empress Xiao was just a little cold, and she didn't like too much red tape in the palace, and she didn't like to attend big banquets or watch plays with the concubines in the harem, etc. I didn't expect it to be such a strange woman, without the slightest queen's shelf, but Wu Yong had a lot of good feelings for her.

"Bengong is just itchy for a while, seeing that Gonggong Wu's face is not very good, he said it, Bengong asked Zhu'er to write a prescription, after you go back, you take medicine on time according to the prescription, your symptoms will definitely be alleviated in less than a month, and then come to Bengong to get another prescription, and after taking it, you can get rid of the disease." Xiao Wanyao said lightly, turned around and sat down in her seat.

Wu Yong thanked again, "Thank you for the grace of the queen, the slave is grateful." ”

Xiao Wanyao said, "Gonggong Wu doesn't have to be polite, but this palace really has something I want to ask Gonggong Wu for help." ”

Wu Yong paused, and then realized that Xiao Wanyao gave herself a sweetness, and she would definitely want to let herself do things in the future. She is the queen, since she opened her mouth, she naturally couldn't refuse, so she said, "What do you need the slave to do, even if you are told, the slave will do what you want." ”

Xiao Wanyao smiled in her heart, she had already guessed what Wu Yong was thinking, and did what she did? Doesn't that mean that if you don't have something in the constitution, you won't do it for yourself? This Wu Yong reacts quickly, and he is also smart, and he, the queen of Wei, is still a little jealous in front of others.

Now it is very likely that she will go abroad to fight with the Wei State, and by that time, it is unknown whether she, the queen, will still be able to sit firmly. So she has to be in control now.

She pursed her lips and smiled, "There are very few people in the palace who know that this palace knows how to use medical skills, if others have problems, please ask Gonggong Wu not to sue others, it is the prescription prescribed by this palace." ”

As soon as Wu Yong heard that it was for this matter, he hurriedly agreed. Xiao Wanyao didn't say anything else, so she let him leave.

After leaving, Wu Yong couldn't help but wipe his forehead with his hand, and his forehead was covered with sweat. The pace under his feet couldn't help but speed up a little, and he was inexplicably a little nervous in his heart, in fact, nothing happened, with his experience, this matter was not enough to remember, but every time he thought of the kind of eyes that Xiao Wanyao had when he stared at him, his heart would be tight. That kind of look seems to be able to peek into a person's heart, this Queen Xiao is definitely not simple.

Wu Yong thought that he had nothing to do, and there must be something waiting for him, but after a month passed, nothing happened, and Xiao Wanyao did not send anyone to ask him to do anything, and even some trivial things that happened in the harem, she did not look for him. As usual, but the more this happened, the more Wu Yong felt as if he owed her something. I can't help but think about this matter more and more.

In the month period, after Wu Yong took the prescription prescribed by Xiao Wanyao, his symptoms really improved a lot, and he naturally thought about another prescription in his heart. After hesitating for a long time, he finally came to Xiyun Palace with a cheeky face. Zhu'er was waiting outside the door early in the morning, and when she saw Wu Yong coming over here, the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, and she went back to Xiao Wanyao, "Father-in-law Wu is here!" ”

Xiao Wanyao was playing with Guo Rui in the nurse's arms, and when she heard Zhu'er's words, she asked the nurse to take Guo Rui to the inner room, and then asked Zhu'er to bring Wu Gonggong in.

"Minions see the queen mother!" Wu Yong hurriedly knelt down after entering. Xiao Wanyao asked him to get up, but he didn't ask why he came over, but chatted with some gossip.

Wu pondered in his heart, the queen's words were going around and around, just not talking about the prescription, could it be that she forgot about it? But he directly asked for a prescription, after all, he was a queen, and he was a slave, so it was always a little inappropriate, so he followed Xiao Wanyao's words for a long time.

It's been about half an hour, Wu Yong's legs are tired, thinking that the queen probably really forgot, and is wondering if she is looking for something to remind her, when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she understood what Xiao Wanyao meant, so she said tentatively, "The emperor has been to Concubine Xian in recent days, and I heard that Concubine Xian has a bad appetite and is a little unwell recently, but I just went over to take a look, and most of these diaries live in the imperial study." ”

Hearing Wu Yong say this, the corners of Xiao Wanyao's mouth showed a faint smile, and naturally Wu Yong saw it in his eyes, and he suddenly realized that Xiao Wanyao was deliberately taking him around in circles, just to let him tell the emperor about the recent things, if he didn't guess wrong, he must want to help the queen spread the word in the future.

In the harem, no matter how big or small the throne is, they all revolve around a man, so they naturally want to know his situation, Wu Yong felt Xiao Wanyao's meaning, so he went on, "When the emperor reviewed the folds that day, the slave saw a jade pendant from the emperor's hand, which must have been the object of the queen's mother, although the emperor rarely came to Xiyun Palace, he was always thinking about the queen's mother. ”

Xiao Wanyao paused slightly, she had never given Guo Ping the objects around her, not to mention, all the things she had now were owned after she came to Chu State, and none of them belonged to her, where did she get the jade pendant? "What does that jade pendant look like?" Xiao Wanyao asked suspiciously.

Wu Yong thought that it was a token of love between Xiao Wanyao and the emperor, and the emperor must have missed it day and night, so he said, "It is a piece of emerald green jade pendant, which is engraved with the name of the queen's mother." The slave thought that it must be the personal belongings of the queen's mother, and even if the emperor spent the night with other concubines, he always thought about the queen's mother. ”

Wu Yong continued, but Xiao Wanyao's face became more and more ugly, her face was pale, and her palms even began to sweat, and she could hardly hear what Wu Yong said later. I only felt a burst of dizziness in front of her, and Zhu'er noticed Xiao Wanyao's strange appearance and hurriedly walked over, "Queen Mother, are you okay?" ”

Wu Yong, who was still talking, heard Zhu'er's exclamation, and then turned to look at Xiao Wanyao, only to see that her face was pale and extremely ugly, and her body was leaning on the edge of the table next to the soft couch. The whole person was stunned, not knowing what he said wrong, how could he react so much.

Xiao Wanyao didn't want Wu Yong to think too much, so she asked him to step back temporarily. When she came back to her senses, she asked Zhu'er to write a prescription and sent someone to Wu Yong, lying that she had made an old mistake just now that she became like that. Wu Yong naturally breathed a sigh of relief, he thought he had said something he shouldn't have said.

It's just that there is one thing that is very confusing, why is the reaction of the two people so similar when the jade pendant is mentioned in front of the emperor and the queen?

After Wu Yong left, Zhu'er asked worriedly, "Why did the queen mother suddenly become like that after hearing about the jade pendant just now?" Isn't it something important? ”

Xiao Wanyao didn't dare to say it, and she didn't dare to think about it, all she thought about was what Wu Yong said, that jade pendant was carved by her father and given to her mother back then, and her mother left it to herself until she died, although it was extremely ordinary, but it was very precious to her, unique in the world, but why was it in Guo Ping's hands? Wasn't it already taken away by Xue Tianao? Why?

Xiao Wanyao retreated from everyone, leaving only Zhu'er, and when Zhu'er approached her, she grabbed Zhu'er's hand and stared at her, "Sue me Zhu'er, do you have something to hide from me?" Although I am not sure about the piece of jade pendant in the emperor's hand, it is likely that it was the one I left for Xue Tianao, why was it in his hands? ”

Zhu'er froze, her expression suddenly became unnatural, as soon as she was like this, Xiao Wanyao was even more sure that she was hiding something from herself, "Zhu'er! Xiao Wanyao said loudly, "I trust you so much, you actually hide it from me." ”

Zhu'er hurriedly explained, "No, it's not the queen, I, I'm ......" Zhu'er didn't know what to say for a while, she knelt in front of Xiao Wanyao and held her hand, crying and said, "The slave maid can't help it, it's the Zhenling girl who won't let the slave tell you." Miss Zhenling is also worried about you, afraid that you will think too much. ”

Xiao Wanyao had an ominous premonition, as if she already knew the answer deep down in her heart, but she didn't dare to touch it or admit it, but she was opened, "Zhu'er, I'm going to let you tell me the truth now, what happened?" She almost gritted her teeth, her eyes full of anger.

Just as Zhen Ling was worried about, 'Xiao Wanyao's biggest weakness' was Xue Tianao, once it was about him, she would not be like herself.

Zhu'er said while crying, "Xue Gongzi was indeed arrested by the emperor and brought to Chu State, and was imprisoned in Lidu Mansion. ”

Xiao Wanyao's mind seemed to be filled with paste, and she wanted to try to stay awake, but she always couldn't concentrate, as if the world had been turned upside down.

She knew that she seemed to know that Guo Ping would not let go of Tianao. He knows his past with Tianao, and it is precisely because he cares too much about himself that he will not let him go.

She should have thought of it as early as when Xue Tianao disappeared, but why didn't she think of it? Why? If I had thought of it earlier, I would have found a way to save him.

"And now? What about Xue Tianao? Xiao Wanyao grabbed her hand hard and asked heartbreakingly.

Looking at the painful expression on Zhu'er's face and the constant tears, she guessed the worst outcome, "He's dead, Xue Gongzi is dead." He was killed by someone sent by the emperor. ”

No wonder that jade pendant is in Guo Ping's hands, no wonder, why, I didn't guess it was him, why? Maybe you can save him then, maybe he ......

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother......"

Xiao Wanyao only felt that it was dark in front of her, and then there was Zhu'er's screams and a chaotic noise, and after all the sounds passed, there was a deathly silence.

"Wan Yao, Wan Yao......"

A familiar voice, but not his.

Xiao Wanyao slowly opened her eyes and saw the person she didn't want to see at the moment, and even for a moment, she really wanted to take her silver needle and stab him, just like she had done it back then.

The silver needle was already in her hand, but the cry of a baby pulled her back to reality, she couldn't do it, absolutely not. In the end, she put away the silver needle, and lay silently on the bed, silent, no matter what he said, no matter how gently he asked, she was silent.

Guo Ping's inquiry was not answered, only to see her staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, like a dead thing, and then vented her unhappiness to the maids around her, including Zhu'er.

Chapter 222: Heart-to-heart

Guo Ping didn't know what was going on, but he felt that Xiao Wanyao didn't want to let herself stay here now, and even saw a trace of disgust and hatred in her eyes. He was surprised, but he was also very calm.

After losing his temper at the people around him, he told Imperial Doctor Li to take good care of Xiao Wanyao, and left Xiyun Palace to go to the imperial study. Wu Yong became like this because he told Xiao Wanyao about the jade pendant today, and when he followed Guo Ping to the imperial study, the first thing Guo Ping did when he sat down was to take out the jade pendant from his body and look at it carefully.

I thought in my heart, what could make Xiao Wanyao become like this all of a sudden.

Wu Yong on the side saw the jade pendant, his heart was a little weak, whether Guo Ping saw this jade pendant or Xiao Wanyao heard it, their reaction was too great, and from this reaction, it didn't look like something like a love token that could cause them good memories, but it seemed like it could bring bad luck at any time.

He didn't dare to mention this matter again, and he didn't dare to tell Guo Ping that he had told the queen mother about it, for fear that bad luck would involve him. He stood aside and accompanied Guo Ping silently, and after a long time, Guo Ping spoke, and there were only two people in the entire imperial study, he and Guo Ping, and the words he said echoed in the empty imperial study, looking low and vicissitudes, "Wu Yong sent someone to stare at the queen, I want to know her every move." ”

He had thought about letting go completely, he had thought that she would give her heart to herself, and he wanted to be as she said at the beginning, husband and wife are the same grass, and mutual trust is the most important thing, but this is not the case.

Xiyun Palace, after Guo Ping left, Zhu'er was worried to death, and kept trying to talk to her, but she saw her crying silently alone, she wiped away her tears for her, knowing who she was for, and knowing how sad she was at this moment, "Queen Mother, no matter what, even if it is for the prince, you have to live well." ”

Her persuasion suddenly pierced Xiao Wanyao's heart, and she narrowed her eyes slightly, yes! She still has the prince and his children, so even if the sky falls, she has to live strongly.

She took a deep breath and struggled to sit up, but Zhu'er hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Queen Mother." ”

Xiao Wanyao grabbed Zhu'er's hand that she helped over, Zhu'er felt a shock in her heart, her hand was so cold, like ice, "Queen Mother, Li Zheng is waiting outside, if you feel uncomfortable there, you can let him come in to check the pulse of Queen Mother." ”

Xiao Wanyao sat on the edge of the bed, her thoughts hadn't completely withdrawn, she tried hard to focus her mind on what was in front of her, thinking about what was in front of her, and how to explain to Guo Ping what she looked like just now, "Go and call him in." ”

Zhu'er nodded, and personally went out to call Li Zheng, who was waiting outside, in, "The queen mother passed you in, remember not to talk nonsense." The queen is not very stable now, remember looking at my eyes. ”

Li Zheng nodded again and again, followed Zhu'er into the queen's bedroom, and after entering, Xiao Wanyao was already sitting there, with four palace maids waiting beside her, and her clothes were already neatly dressed, her face was extremely pale, and her bright and clear eyes stared straight at Li Zheng who walked in.

This made him feel a little flustered, "Wei Chen sees the queen mother, I wish the queen mother is in good health." ”

Xiao Wanyao glanced at him, and her tone was majestic, "Get up." ”

Li Zheng stood aside after getting up, and then said, "I don't know if the queen mother is uncomfortable, let Weichen take the pulse of the queen mother." ”

Xiao Wanyao shook her head and looked straight ahead, "The palace is not sick, and the body is fine, but the ghost in this palace is not gone, and the palace can't sleep peacefully." Can Imperial Doctor Li know the magic of exorcism? ”

Li Zheng was stunned, and even Zhu'er on the side was stunned. He hurriedly saluted and said, "Weichen is the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital, and he only knows medical skills and does not know any magic to exorcise evil spirits. The queen mother means ......"

She was silent for a moment, then spoke, "Hongu is not sick, but haunted by something. I don't remember anything about what happened just now. ”

Zhu'er's eyes moved, and she asked, "The emperor came here just now, and the queen doesn't remember it?" Xiao Wanyao was stunned and looked at Zhu'er with a little surprise, "Has the emperor come here?" But really? Why doesn't Hongu remember at all? What about the emperor? ”

Zhu'er knew that there must be something going on here, Xiao Wanyao herself was a healer, so she naturally didn't believe in any ghosts or anything like that, she must have done this for a reason, so she said cooperatively, "The emperor has left, let the slave take good care of the queen, and say that she will come back later." ”

"Hongu didn't even know!" Xiao Wanyao stood up, "The palace has to go and explain it to the emperor clearly, so as not to misunderstand the emperor." ”

Zhu'er hugged Xiao Wanyao, "The queen's health is just better, I'm afraid that I will provoke something when I go out now, let's take a rest first, the emperor will come over later, and it will not be too late to explain at that time." ”

After Xiao Wanyao and Zhu'er sang and harmonized, even Li Zheng on the side began to believe that the queen mother was stunned by something, and she was not sick at all. In order to make Li Zheng believe more, Xiao Wanyao asked him to take his pulse, and there was indeed no illness. And except for the appearance just now, Xiao Wanyao is no different from usual, she really fell into some kind of shock.

Li Zheng believed it, and heard that Xiao Wanyao intended to invite someone to exorcise demons, so he hurriedly recommended a person he knew, who was also a charlatan he met when he was eating and drinking in the rivers and lakes in the past, and he was righteous and could still think of the other party at this time.

"The Queen." Li Zheng knelt down, "Weichen knows a person who is extremely proficient in this, if the queen mother wants to exorcise demons, you can let him enter the palace to handle this matter." ”

Li Zheng naturally didn't believe in ghosts or anything like that, and the person he knew about the exorcist was just because everyone was a liar and smelled the same. But he knew that many people in this world believed in this kind of thing, and the women in the palace believed even more.

Xiao Wanyao saw that he took the initiative to recommend, hesitated for a moment and then agreed to him and let him bring that person into the palace. This matter quickly spread out, and naturally it became more and more outrageous in the back, Xiao Wanyao ignored these, in fact, what she wanted was exactly such a result.

Guo Ping was also a little hesitant at first, and even a little believed that Xiao Wanyao was indeed frightened, because he had never seen such a Xiao Wanyao, and it was indeed superb, and for people from the emperor's family, he still believed in it.

However, when Guo Ping learned that Xiao Wanyao secretly left the palace, he knew that this was just a trick she made up.

After Xiao Wanyao secretly left the palace, she went directly to see Zhenling and Zhentian, and she didn't have time to tell them in advance before they came. The place where Earthquake and Earthquake Spirit lived was just a few private houses, and there were no servants or other servants, just the two of them, so that they could hide from others and leave at any time without leaving any trouble.

When Zhenling was staying in the courtyard, he suddenly heard the sound of a carriage outside the door, so he turned around and walked towards the door, and through the crack in the door, he saw that there was indeed a carriage parked in front of his house, as if he had come out of the palace, and then he saw Zhu'er get down from the carriage. Zhen Ling breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, opened the door and went out, and was just about to say hello to Zhu'er, when he saw Zhu'er turn around and help another person get out of the carriage.

The man was dressed as a eunuch, with delicate eyebrows and big watery eyes, and when he looked up at Zhen Ling, his eyes couldn't help but be a little angry.

Zhen Ling was stunned for a moment, and sighed, "Miss, why are you here?" ”

Xiao Wanyao ignored her, glared at her, and walked towards the courtyard with Zhu'er, who gave Zhenling a look, and several people entered the house. Zhentian also walked out of the house at this time, and suddenly he didn't recognize Xiao Wanyao.

When Zhenling closed the door and came to the courtyard, Xiao Wanyao said with a touch of anger, "Why do you want to hide it from me about Tianao? ”

As soon as Xiao Wanyao spoke, Zhenling and the three of them were stunned at the same time, Zhenling looked at her angry eyes, and couldn't help but glance at Zhentian in her heart, and sure enough, Zhentian came out to act as a shield for her, "Miss, there is a reason why we are hiding from you!" In fact, I didn't deliberately want to hide it from you, but I was worried that if you knew about it, Guo Ping would find out and it would be bad for you. ”

Xiao Wanyao naturally knew that they were for her own good, but she was still angry and angry, she tried her best to restrain her temper, turned around and walked towards the house.

The three of them stood on the ground and looked at each other, Xiao Wanyao realized that they didn't follow, and shouted at them, "Don't let me come here yet." Zhu'er couldn't help but stick out her tongue and followed Xiao Wanyao into the house. Earthquake Spirit frowned, and followed with a look of impending disaster.

Zhentian caught up with her and comforted, "Don't worry, the eldest lady won't lose her temper at most." ”

Zhen Ling looked sad, "I know she just lost her temper, but if the news that Guo Ping caught Xue Tianao and killed him was known to her, do you think the eldest lady would promise not to attack Guo Ping in the palace?" ”

Hearing Zhenling say this, Zhentian couldn't help but gasp, that kind of situation was unimaginable. Will Xiao Wanyao kill Guo Ping? It's really like her style of doing things.

The two of them didn't look good, bowed their heads and entered the room, Xiao Wanyao was already sitting on a chair in the living room, her eyes were deep, and her face was gloomy, but she didn't have time or mood to ask anything, let alone lose her temper at them, "Tell me the truth, what's going on?" She snapped.

Zhu'er was about to speak, but was stopped by Xiao Wanyao, "Zhu'er shut up and let them speak." I asked you to investigate the news outside, why did you hide it from me? Tell me, what's going on? What about Tianao? She asked, raising her voice.

Zhen Ling pursed his lips, it had reached such a time, he must not be able to hide it, so he told Xiao Wanyao everything.

Although she was mentally prepared, when Xiao Wanyao heard the facts, she still felt dizzy in front of her, and Zhu'er hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Queen Mother, are you okay?" ”

Xiao Wanyao waved her hand, "I'm fine, and Zhu'er, you don't need to call me queen outside." I also don't have the slightest interest in this queen. She almost gritted her teeth and said it, looking at the anger in her eyes, everyone present believed that if Guo Ping was here at this moment, she would definitely break Guo Ping's body into pieces.

She slowed down and asked, "Shaker, you said you saw him before you learned of his death?" How is he? Are you okay? ”

Zhenling paused, why did the two of them ask the same question, naturally it was not good, they were so concerned about each other, how tormented, "He looks very good, he is in good spirits, and he sneaked in here in person at night, if he hadn't taken the initiative to show his feet, I wouldn't have noticed him coming." And he looked very confident, like, like, as if he was preparing to do something. ”R1154
