Chapter 135: Someone Else Is The Murderer?
The emperor's words made Tuoba Yuanqiong's eyes flash with mockery.
"Oh?" Tuoba Yuanqiong raised his eyebrows, "I don't know which palace my father stayed in yesterday?" ”
Tuoba Yuanqiong's words, Tuoba Minghan knew that Yuan Qiong had an opinion on his own suggestion, and his face was a little embarrassed, "Qiong'er, I am not mediocre, Concubine Li's pillow is windy to me, I can still distinguish the good from the bad, if it is not reasonable, I will not say such a suggestion to you." ”
"Really?" A playful smile hung on his lips, "Erchen thinks that this violent death is much more neat and neat than this entry into the mansion." ”
And at this moment, Zhu Yanxi also followed the queen, sat down in the side hall, looked at the queen's sincere smile, and the doubts in Zhu Yanxi's heart became deeper and deeper, the queen's kindness to herself is not something that can be pretended to be, what she feels is the queen's love from the heart, but she doesn't understand, just because of the relationship with her mother, can you care about yourself? I don't know the answer.
After Ziqin properly took the palace people to serve tea and snacks, she withdrew with the queen under the nod of the queen, and outside the palace gate, only Ziqin was left at the door waiting for the queen's summons anytime and anywhere.
"Come, Yan'er try it, this is what my sister taught Bengong to do before, Bengong remembers, at that time, my sister said, this snack looks joyful, sweet and sweet, today Bengong specially made it for you, you try."
Zhu Yanxi looked at the pink peach blossom-like dim sum on the plate, nodded with a smile, reached out and took a piece, the sweet taste of glutinous glutinous taste, blooming in the taste buds, "It's so cool~"
"No, this palace said the same thing at the beginning, so it should be regarded as a blessing from this palace for my sister to Yan'er. This mint peach blossom cake, if Yan'er likes it, bring some back. The queen looked at the joy on Yan Xi's face, and her heart warmed up a little.
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"Okay, good~" Na Xin'er smiled even deeper when she heard this.
Zhu Yanxi just gently picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then asked what she wanted to know. "By the way, Queen Mother, what does the Queen Mother think about the matter of Concubine Xian?"
Yan Xi's voice was soft, her eyelids drooped, and she couldn't see the fluctuations in her emotions, Na Xin'er sighed secretly in her heart, how good it would have been if there was no accident.
"Yan'er, if this palace says that although Concubine Xia Xian is guilty, she was also designed by someone, can you believe it?" Na Xin'er looked at Yan Xi's location and asked in a questioning voice.
Zhu Yanxi gently buckled the tea lid, put the teacup back in place, and then raised his head, "That day, the conversation between Concubine Xia Xian and the queen mother, Yan Xi has not forgotten, at this moment, the queen mother's rhetoric is only afraid that it will be unconvincing." ”
"Hehe, this palace naturally understands, but if there is no Yun Qi, this palace may really think that it was Concubine Xia Xian who killed the imperial concubine." The queen shook her head slowly, and as soon as these words came out, Yan Xi raised her head in shock.
"The matter between Lord Yunqi and Concubine Xia Xian is implicated?" Zhu Yan looked at the queen's eyes, this sudden change was really difficult for him to digest.
Na Xin'er nodded, "Yan'er, you said, who is the one who instigated and instigated the killing of people, and the person who instigated behind the scenes, who is the initiator and who deserves to die the most?" ”
"Mother, I don't understand." Zhu Yanxi's eyes were full of confusion, waiting for the queen's answer.
"It's only since last night that this palace has figured out where this has always felt inexplicably weird." Na Xin'er poured out slowly, "Bengong remembers that on the day the imperial concubine died, Concubine Xiaxian was very abnormal, for so many years, what did she have, how could she hide it from Bengong, under the pressure of Bengong, she informed Bengong that she poisoned Mo Tailan." ”
In the queen's outpouring, she was also a little surprised, what did Concubine Xiaxian's obedience to the queen's aunt come from, she didn't have too much time to think, and the queen had already said it quietly.
"Bengong and Concubine Xiaxian, although they have also done a lot of things, but, they have never thought about it, to attack people who have no intention of murdering themselves, Concubine Xiaxian's actions make this palace incomprehensible, but, this palace knows, if it is not for the fear that the imperial concubine threatens the palace, she will not do this, a person who is good to the palace, the palace absolutely can't bear it, and wants her to die because of the palace, however, the imperial concubine's physique is understandable, and the concubine Xia Xian did such a thing in a daze, but the palace was suspicious, and when she took Concubine Xia Xian to the Imperial Palace, I also want to find out, but..."
"Just what?" Zhu Yanxi asked eagerly.
Na Xin'er rubbed her brows, "It's just that when the palace arrived at the Imperial Palace, I saw the county lord of Yunqi crying with a frightened face, and he didn't forget to mumble about the good of the imperial concubine, who is the villain and returned the words of the imperial concubine." ”
Hearing this, the fear in Zhu Yanxi's heart rose for no reason, if there was no yesterday's incident, or, it still sounds a little strange, not to mention that now, with yesterday's suspicion of Yun Qi, this matter is complicated, Yun Qi and Tuoba Yuanqiong are close in age, if the imperial concubine really died from Concubine Xia Xian's medicine, if you want to deal with the imperial concubine by accident, it will definitely not leave a trace of evidence, if so, how can this Yunqi county lord's fairy tale be so?
"At that time, did Concubine Xia Xian deliberately create the scene of the death of the imperial concubine?"
"That's natural, so, all along, there has always been an indescribable strangeness in Bengong's heart, but I can't understand why, it's because I won't think about it, Lord Yunqi." The queen sighed a long sigh, "Now, this palace suspects that the death of the imperial concubine has something to do with Yun Qi, so last night, this palace looked for Concubine Xia Xian again." ”
suppressed the surprise in her heart, Zhu Yanxi frowned, and with the queen's words, the Sichuan characters between her eyebrows became more and more obvious.
"Concubine Xia Xian is not a person who likes to compete for favor, the so-called jealousy of the imperial concubine, others believe it, but the palace does not believe it, we met when we were young, in the most beautiful and innocent years, the three of them know each other, each other understands each other's personalities, how can it be simply for a jealous imperial concubine to take away the favor and kill the killer, hehe, or, the women of the harem are just for the grace of Bo Liang to survive, but, whether it is the imperial concubine or the concubine Xia Xian, but they all wish to stay away from grace, who will be jealous for this ridiculous grace?" The grief in the queen's eyes made Zhu Yanxi's lips lightly, but she didn't know how to comfort her, and in her heart, she also understood that the queen's aunt was the same, but time had passed, but the queen's aunt was still the same, didn't she care about the emperor? Could it be that this is why he is so indifferent to the prince?
Pain, torn in her heart, the queen laughed at herself, she didn't like grace either, but she couldn't say it, her eyes were misty, with a wry smile, Na Xin'er sighed, "After Concubine Xia Xian learned about Yunqi's matter again, she also remembered why she killed the imperial concubine, who would have thought that those of us who were in the harem step by step would be calculated by a ten-year-old girl?" ”
"Is it really Lord Yunqi?" Zhu Yanxi frowned, thinking that it was Yun Qi's reaction to pretend to be a ghost and scary at the autumn street banquet, and it was really difficult to equate the scheming person with her.
"If it weren't for her childish words about the good of the imperial concubine, the emperor wants to make the imperial concubine the queen, and she can marry Yuan Qiong as the queen in the future, etc., Concubine Xia Xian would not be so concerned, in addition, Yun Qi was favored by the Queen Mother, and sometimes went to the Imperial Palace during that time, and Concubine Xia Xian let the precautions in her heart grow and expand." Na Xin'er closed her eyes tiredly, leaning on the back of the chair, her face was a little tired, when she closed her eyes, a tear slipped from the corner of her eyes, looking at such a queen, Zhu Yanxi was also affected by the pain in her heart, why did she feel sorry for her when she looked at the queen's aunt like this?
"If that's the case, what good can Lord Yunqi have?" Zhu Yanxi lowered her eyes, the current situation is becoming more and more complicated, and a thought flashed in her mind, if Yunqi is really so thoughtful, then what Yunqi did yesterday must have thought that this action of her own will make everyone doubt her true face, not what she thought, the dog jumped off the wall in a hurry!
Zhu Yanxi suddenly raised her eyes, and the shock in her eyes happened to meet Na Xin'er's inquiring eyes, "Yan'er, what do you want?" ”
"Queen Mother, perhaps, your suspicions are right." Zhu Yanxi's brows slowly relaxed, and she looked at the queen seriously, "Yesterday's incident, Yan Xi only thought that the Yunqi County Lord was jumping off the wall in a hurry, and today she disdainfully thinks that such a person is not enough to trouble, but if she is really like this, and she behaves like that before the imperial concubine dies, I am afraid that yesterday's incident was also deliberate, and it was to show us." ”
"You're saying that all of this is the result she wants?" The queen's eyes sank, and the killing intent in her eyes appeared, if Yun Qi was so difficult to deal with, then she would never allow such a person to pose a threat to Yan Xi!
"Yes!" Zhu Yanxi hooked her lips and smiled lightly, "Or, the imperial concubine, it really wasn't because of the poison of the virtuous concubine Niangniang that she died." ”
"Yan'er~" The queen's eyes widened in shock.
"Queen Mother, I hope you really didn't participate in the death of the imperial concubine, Yan Xi also hopes that the virtuous concubine is not lying to protect you, I care about the prince... I also care... You... You are good to Yan Xi, Yan Xi has always known. Zhu Yanxi smiled at the queen with relief, got up and gave a blessing, "Yan Xi retired." Looking at the sound of Yan Xi leaving, the queen's eyes were moist again, until Ziqin walked in, and the queen was still frozen in place.
"Queen Mother!" Ziqin called lightly.
Na Xin'er came back to her senses in Ziqin's light call, the corners of her mouth hooked up with pleasure, and the tiredness of these years was swept away by Yan Xi's care.
"Ziqin, you go to the palace for the palace, and ask Wang Jia to secretly check who Yunqi is dealing with, I'm afraid that there are a lot of people she has hidden and cultivated in this harem." The queen quickly regained her usual image and cautiously instructed Ziqin.
"Slaves obey!" Ziqin looked at the queen's face and knew the seriousness of the matter, so she hurriedly retreated and walked towards Gong Zhengji.
Yan Xi, who left the side hall, returned to the main hall, and when he stepped in, he felt the tense atmosphere in the main hall.
Looking at the coldness on Tuoba Yuanqiong's face, looking at the emperor with an angry face, Zhu Yan took a light step, "Meet my father." ”
"Yan Xi, what good things did the queen give you, the gods are mysterious and secret, I don't even know about them." Tuoba Minghan saw Yan Xi appear, and naturally looked for the steps to go down, if it wasn't for this, I was afraid that this deadlock would not know how to break it.
And Tuoba Yuanqiong looked at the smile on Yan Xi's face, the smile in his eyes, and the stiffness on his face softened.
"It's a box of pastries, my mother once taught the queen mother's craft, Yan Xi thought, this is the best gift." Zhu Yanxi was holding the food box in his hand, and he smiled, "Yan Xi specially took a lot, father and prince, do you want to give it a try?" ”
"Really?" Hearing that it was originally created by Nayun'er, Tuoba Minghan's eyes flashed, "Then I'm going to try it." ”
Tuoba Yuanqiong understands Yan Xi, but I am afraid that Yan Er's move is not only to round this impasse, but also, in order to fulfill his father's heart, in this case, he is not selling his father's face, but also to fulfill Yan Er's heart.
"Mother's gift, this king is going to try it too."
Tuoba Yuanqiong walked over, took the food box in Yan Xi's hand, and handed it to his father.
Tuoba Minghan was slightly stunned, looking at the pastry offered by his son, a smile bloomed on his face, but, when his eyes touched the mint peach blossom cake, his hand, tremblingly, picked up a piece of pastry, the entrance of the pastry, Tuoba Minghan's eyes flashed, sure enough, it was mint peach blossom cake, that year, when he was joking with Yun'er, Yun'er once told himself without shyness that the children of the Na family were the happiest before they got married, and their mothers tried their best to make unique and unique food for their own children. She is also looking forward to her own gift.
At that time, she was still making fun of Yun'er's shame, and between the small fights, Yun'er also proudly told herself that she had already thought about it, and between husband and wife, it should be the same as them, cool and sweet, as bright and beautiful as peach blossoms in March, and prosperous.
Tuoba Yuanqiong and Yan Xi looked at each other, pretending to ignore it, "It's really refreshing, no wonder Yan'er has been gone for so long." ”
"Yan Xi thought, if you find time, you must ask the queen mother for advice, the prince likes it, is it good for Yan Xi to eat for you?" Zhu Yanxi smiled and spoke, her beautiful eyes looked forward to it, and the joy in her heart made her face softer and softer, and Tuoba Yuanqiong's heart moved, and the tenderness in her eyes became worse.
Tuoba Minghan only relieved himself at this moment, and hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "I still have some things, Qiong'er and Yan Xi can take care of themselves, as for my proposal, Qiong'er will weigh it herself." ”
Tuoba Minghan, who left in embarrassment, left quickly, leaving Yan Xi with a puzzled face, and looked at Tuoba Yuanqiong inquiringly. "Let's go, how about talking as we go? At this time, it is time to go home. Knowing Yan Xi's curiosity, Tuoba Yuanqiong took Yan Xi's hand and slowly walked towards the outside of Weiyang Palace.
"Yes!" Yan Xi obediently followed Tuoba Yuanqiong and left.
Along the way, Tuoba Yuanqiong concisely told his father all his thoughts, Zhu Yanxi heard this, the light of calculation flashed, and he suddenly stopped, "Lord Wang, or, we should go to the Imperial Palace, what do you say?" ”
"Oh?" Tuoba Yuanqiong looked at the cunning light in Yan Xi's eyes, nodded dotingly, and ordered the sedan chair to turn back to the Imperial Palace.
"Lord Wang, you said, someone here wants to calculate us, how about inviting you into the urn?" Zhu Yanxi winked at Tuoba Yuanqiong, meaning something.
"This king has only one wife, if you invite you into the urn, you are not afraid that this king's concentration will be insufficient?" The palm of his hand rubbed Yan Xi's face, and Tuoba Yuanqiong hooked his lips and chuckled.
"It's just that someone wants to be a guest in the palace, and the anti-guest is the main thing, this trap doesn't jump, but I'm afraid, it's not easy to catch big fish. What's more..."Zhu Yanxi whispered his conversation with the queen and told Tuoba Yuanqiong in his ear.
Hearing this, Tuoba Yuanqiong half-narrowed his eyes and was silent for a long time, "If this is the case, this king disagrees even more!" ”
"Why?" Zhu Yanxi didn't think that Tuoba Yuanqiong would object, and her beautiful eyes were full of incomprehension.
"With such ill intentions, it is impossible for this king to bear any trace of shame in order to invite you into the urn, there is an accident!" is full of firm eyes, clearly informing Yan Xi that he does not agree.
"The prince's words are wrong!" Zhu Yanxi shook his head, "Can the prince guarantee that in the palace, it will be safe?" It's better to put your enemies under your nose than to stab you when you don't know it, isn't it? ”
Seeing that Tuoba Yuanqiong pursed his lips and didn't say a word, Zhu Yanxi leaned his head on Tuoba Yuanqiong's shoulder, "Yuanqiong, I'm not a vase that will break when I touch it, when I didn't meet you, I experienced a lot of dangers, even now, I don't want to be Zhu Yanxi who only lives by you, what you love is not like me, isn't it?" ”
Zhu Yanxi's words made Tuoba Yuanqiong smile bitterly, yes, he knew very well that Yan'er didn't need to be attached to himself, and he knew that he couldn't stop it, but he was also afraid, worried that in case, when would he cower like this?
Seeing that Tuoba Yuanqiong was indifferent, Zhu Yanxi rubbed into Tuoba Yuanqiong's arms half-coquettishly, and whispered, "Could it be that Yuanqiong just wants to look at me, and slowly become the same as everyone else, only you, without myself?" ”
A long sigh sounded above Yan Xi's head, and Tuoba Yuanqiong helplessly pulled Yan Xi up from his arms, and his affectionate eyes met Yan Xi's eyes, "You won~"
