CHAPTER XXXI
"Let's get up and talk first. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Considering that Jin Se was still there, Queen Lu finally relented and gave Concubine Zhuang a grace. "It's very cool on this ground, if you accidentally kneel down and break Concubine Zhuang's mother, it will be the sin of this palace."
As she spoke, Queen Lu raised her hand slightly, and Mama Zhou on the side understood, only to see her walk forward quickly, and stretched out her hand to help Concubine Zhuang up from the ground.
Concubine Zhuang bowed her head to Queen Lu, and then stood up from the ground with the strength of Mama Zhou.
Empress Lu looked at Concubine Zhuang, who was already tired, and silently reached out to stroke her hair. "Sit down."
"Xie Niangniang." Concubine Zhuang took a few steps back to the side and sat on the nearest chair.
"Don't say it in this palace, I'm afraid you also know Concubine Zhuang, what you said about poisoning recently is extraordinary." Empress Lu is positive, she knows that in addition to Jin Se, all the people present are her and Concubine Zhuang's henchmen, so she said to Concubine Zhuang word by word: "Although Your Majesty is older now, you also know that in recent years, his clamping on the harem has been as good as day by day. ”
"The concubine naturally understands." Concubine Zhuang quietly rubbed her aching knees with her hand, and then said to Queen Lu: "Otherwise, today, the concubine would not dare to be so reckless and reckless with you." ”
After listening to Concubine Zhuang's words, Queen Lu's heart was also a little lighter.
Concubine Zhuang's meaning, why didn't she understand?
If she really has a heart, then she will not come to her Fengyang Palace today, but to His Majesty's Chongyang Palace. After all, Concubine Zhuang dared to carry a dead person into Fengyang Palace today, which was enough to show that she already knew that the female official He was her person. Even if she can't find out anything in the end, with those unreasonable people in the Chongyuan Marquis's Mansion, I'm afraid that the emperor will be wary of her in the future.
"You know, that's for the best." Empress Lu relaxed her body and leaned on the pillow with her wrists. "As for the person who dares to poison Concubine Zhuang, even if you don't know, you must know about this palace...... Whether there is a suspicion or not. ”
Concubine Zhuang fought hard and should bear it. "What kind of person Niangniang is, the concubine still knows."
Yes, Queen Lu's personality, she knows it, and she knows it best!
Because of her "charity", because she believes in Buddhism and worships Buddhism, she never disdains to kill anyone. But her methods are more ferocious than letting a woman bury her life.
Concubine Zhuang covered the sneer on her face with a handkerchief, and she remembered the day she entered the palace twenty years ago.
It was this queen back then, who sheltered her from the wind and rain in front of people, and destroyed her palace in a blink of an eye, so that she had no children to accompany her for the rest of her life.
Queen Lu leaned on the couch and couldn't see the faint sneer on Concubine Zhuang's face, but said: "If you can trust the palace, the poisoning matter, the palace will check it for you." Concubine Zhuang, what do you think? ”
"It's all up to my sister." Concubine Zhuang said obediently: "My sister is also happy to be idle. ”
"You and my sister have been twenty years, why should you be so polite." Empress Lu said this to Concubine Zhuang, and then asked someone to close the box.
Concubine Zhuang watched a palace man step forward and close the box, but the sneer on her face was even worse. And Queen Lu turned her head to look at Jin Se, who was still silent, only to see her stretch out her hand and touch Jin Se's hair lovingly.
She asked softly, "Are you afraid?" ”
Jin Se bit the corner of his mouth, thought for a while, and finally shook his head at Empress Lu. "There is a mother, and the courtiers are not afraid."
Unafraid?
Looking at Jin Se, who was still pale, Empress Lu smiled.
I'm afraid or frightened, right? After all, it's not a kitten or a puppy lying down there.
"That's very good." Empress Lu patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "If I frighten you today, then Wu Zhao will not have to resent the palace in the future?" ”
Jin Se silently struck a spirit.
This queen is really inseparable from King Wu Zhao in three sentences.
"Look at what you said." She covered her face, her voice trembling. "You're laughing at Jinse again, aren't you?"
Empress Lu laughed, and even grabbed Jin Se and refused to let go, and Jin Se was also very face-saving and flattered her constantly, only Concubine Zhuang, who was still sitting below, stared coldly at the two women in the hall who were middle-aged and a young man.
No matter how kind Queen Lu is, in the final analysis, it is just a pretending scene. But looking at the girl of the Jiang family who was intimate with Queen Lu, Concubine Zhuang's heart was depressed, and she couldn't wait to step forward to give this girl a few kicks.
Although the Jiang family is still in the name of a minister, there is still a strong bone in the heart. Besides, when did the people of their Jiang family need to flatter the Lu family like this?
Concubine Zhuang, who couldn't see the two so intimate, immediately waved her long sleeves and stood up with a "rub".
"Sister!"
Concubine Zhuang called Queen Lu, and at this time, Queen Lu was chatting with Jin Se in full swing, and she was also taken aback.
"What's wrong again?" Empress Lu looked at Concubine Zhuang and couldn't help but hold her eyebrows with her hand.
She really couldn't figure out why Concubine Zhuang, who had always been cold and solemn, chose to challenge her mind again and again today.
Concubine Zhuang bowed to Queen Lu, but her eyes looked at Jin Se beside her, and she only said, "If there is nothing wrong, the concubine will go back first." ”
And Queen Lu, who had long been eager for her to go back, immediately replied: "Well, let's go back." ”
Jin Se raised his eyes and looked at Concubine Zhuang who was still looking at him below, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curled.
"Niangniang, let's let the courtiers send Concubine Zhuang Niangniang." She took Queen Lu's hand and begged for a favor.
Empress Lu turned her face to look at Jin Se and raised her eyebrows lightly, but before she could speak, she saw Jin Se approaching her again, covering the corners of her mouth and whispering to her.
She said: "Although I haven't seen her for many years, Concubine Zhuang is still the aunt of the courtier. If you see your mother today but don't talk to her, I'm afraid that my father will find out and he will be unhappy. ”
After listening to Jin Se's words, Queen Lu closed her eyes helplessly.
Chongyuan Hou, now that she only hears these three words, it makes her feel a headache.
This Hou Ye, that is the "first minister" recognized by South Vietnam. Putting aside his previous years of flattery, just recently, he has become more and more rampant. She also thought about finding a reason to deal with him, but in the end she couldn't bear it. After all, there is an old emperor above who is bent on protecting him, so she never dares to make too many moves.
"What you said is also very true, Concubine Zhuang...... It's your aunt after all. Empress Lu squinted a pair of phoenix eyes slightly, she looked at Jin Se and said, "Go down, go and send Concubine Zhuang." ”
