The chief eunuch of the Ciming Palace was exposed by a snake out of the hole because of the attempted assassination of Concubine Li, and was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the emperor was arraigned overnight, and all kinds of torture instruments were used, and Gonggong An insisted that he was the mastermind, because he inadvertently discovered the collusion between Concubine Li Niangniang and the privy envoy Yetian, and for the sake of the emperor's safety, he decided to hire a killer to assassinate Concubine Li.

In fact, there are many doubts about his confession. First, he is the queen mother's henchman, he went out of the palace to assassinate Concubine Li, wouldn't the queen mother know, unless it was the queen mother's approval. Second, hiring a killer requires a lot of silver, and how can he get so much silver as a eunuch. Third, how could he, a person who had lived in the deep palace for a long time, know Concubine Li's whereabouts so well. Fourth, he said that Yetian colluded with Concubine Li, and there was no physical evidence, just his words. There are many, many more, I can't tell.

The emperor also once ran to ask the Queen Mother if she knew anything about Father-in-law An, but the Queen Mother denied it, only saying that he had recently contracted a cold and took leave, as for what he was doing, it was a question and three unknowns. On the morning of the second day after Father-in-law An was arrested, the Ji family forcibly sent the Yuan family back to his hometown for recuperation on the grounds of poor mental state, saying that he would take him back to the capital after he recovered. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't even have a chance to enter the palace and say goodbye to Concubine Xian.

At noon, that is, after the Yuan family left, Ji Fu received a holy decree to marry the second son, Ji Zhongting, and Miss Danxiu of the Zhao family, and the marriage was completed at the end of April. This decree was really timely enough, and the people of the Zhao family had already prepared a carriage and were ready to withdraw from the marriage in Jifu, but suddenly such a holy decree came, and they could only accept the marriage of this village.

Mo Yu walked into Jingxuan, which was the residence of Ji Zhongting, the second young master of the Ji Mansion, and was located in the east of the Ji Mansion. There are a lot of dragon bamboos planted in the yard, short and slender, suitable for enjoying the scenery, and there are two green bamboos planted in the corner of the yard. Bamboo ranks third among the four gentlemen, there is a high wind and bright festival, which means one of the rising festivals, it seems that he is also yearning for a bright and upright, free and easy life.

I feel bored today, so I came to see him, I'm afraid that after he gets married, he won't have a chance to see each other again.

When Ji Zhongting saw his sister who suddenly appeared, he was startled and said in surprise: "Sister, how did you get in?" ”

Mo Yu pointed to the top of his head and said with a smile: "Flew in!" And I'm familiar with it. ”

"If you don't go through the main gate in broad daylight, why do you want to fly in like a thief!" But seeing Mo Yu's changed face, he hurriedly covered his mouth and apologized: "I'm sorry, I said it wrong." ”

She found a seat for herself and sat down, and said, "I don't want to see them, the Yuan family was sent away, and now you have the holy decree as a guarantee, let me see, are you still blaming me?" ”

At the beginning, he blamed her, just said that the family affair was good, and within a few days, there was this incident at home, and the Zhao family didn't come to quit the family! Even if Moyu wants to take revenge, why do you have to pick this time, can't she wait for him to get married before making plans? Later, he also wanted to go to Moyu to ask for clarification, but unfortunately Moyu hid too deeply and couldn't find it after looking for a few days. Asked Yetian, as soon as Yetian heard him say Moyu's name, he ran faster than a rabbit.

Ji Zhongting came to her like a pug and grinned: "Sister, you are my own sister, how can I blame you!" And, I know, you're not going to leave me alone, are you? ”

Mo Yu smiled silently, and listened to Ji Zhongting continue: "But sister, what plan do you have next time, can you tell me first, let me have a bottom in my heart." ”

This matter is indeed something she didn't think about thoughtfully, and people are happily preparing to get married, she is good, she has set up a wall for others, can she not be upset! But he's changed a lot! Mo Yu said happily: "A few days ago, you still think that this marriage is dispensable, what do I think, you are getting happier and happier?" Are you satisfied? ”

"Things have come to this point, and Zhao Danxiu is already the best for me. Sometimes don't always feel that others are not worthy of you, in fact, to some extent, I am not worthy of her! There are such good people, why not cherish them. ”

Ji Zhongting thinks that he is not worthy of Zhao Danxiu, and it has nothing to do with his appearance or family background. From the point of conscience alone, Ji Zhongting knew that Zhao Danxiu was simple-minded, and her heart was like clear water, clean and transparent. As for him, he has a group of family members who even put their own flesh and blood to death, and his heart is extremely ugly.

"I'm glad you can cherish her so well. No matter what happens in the future, I will be on your side. ”

"Thank you, sister, the hearts of the people in the palace are sinister, you have to be careful yourself."

Mo Yu nodded, from the first day she entered the palace, she lived vigilantly every day, and even when she rested at night, she did not let down her guard. At first, I was a little unaccustomed to it, but then I slowly adapted to the current life, and even when I returned to Wuyan Mountain, or now I live in Qinxin Building, this defensive heart has never stopped. "Okay."

Ji Zhongting suddenly wondered, and said, "Sister, did you do the strange things that happened in the Ji family in the past few days?" ”

Mo Yu blinked his eyes and shook his head innocently, and said, "No, I'm still wondering, who has such a great ability to help me do what I want to do!" ”

Ji Zhongting rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Sister, don't pretend, I estimate that this kind of thing will be done by you in the whole capital, and besides, you will not deal with the eldest lady in the whole capital." ”

"Alas, don't slander me! I'm the most peaceful little people. ”

"Come on, you set the traps for the assassins on the mountain." Ji Zhongting leaned over curiously and said, "Tell me, how did you do it!" How do you make all those flowers and plants wither overnight, and how do you do it? Also, how did that mage vomit blood, I don't believe he was beaten by a ghost. Also, how did the snow get into the house? ”

Mo Yu listened to his chatter and ask, and helplessly stretched out his palm to him, making Ji Zhongting confused, what was he doing with his palm? Puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”

"Where's tea? I've been in the door for so long, and you won't give me a sip of tea? ”

Oh, by the way, he forgot about it. Ji Zhongting had no choice but to smile awkwardly and pour a glass of water on the table, then send it to Mo Yu, and said, "Sister, then you are willing to tell me?" ”

Mo Yu took a sip of tea, then put it on the small coffee table on the couch, looked at the curious Ji Zhongting, and said, "The flowers and plants are very simple, just sprinkle some medicine and you're done." As for the mage, guess what? ”

Ji Zhongting sat down, thought for a while, and said, "You also drugged him." Seeing that Mo Yu shook his head, he guessed again: "You ordered his acupoint." Mo Yu still shook her head and said, "I didn't show up at all that night. Ji Zhongting guessed again: "Is it really a ghost!" ”

"It's not."

After thinking for a while, Ji Zhongting hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "I know, that mage and you are basically in the same group, and it was a scene you sent him to play." ”

"Well, you're not too stupid."

"Then how do you know that they are looking for the mage?"

Mo Yu spread out his hand and said, "How do I know who they want to invite, I stopped them before they entered the Ji Mansion, these days, money can make ghosts grind, do you still think that Daoists are so high?" ”

Ji Zhongting couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his hand and praised: "High." So how did you do that snow? Can this snow still drift sideways into it? ”

"That wasted a lot of effort on my part! Although the weather is warm now, the snow has not melted in some places, and I have hired someone to bring the snow back from a long distance, and it is very laborious to preserve it. ”

Ji Zhongting couldn't wait to ask, "Then how did you let it float in horizontally?" ”

Mo Yu took another sip of tea and said, "At first glance, you are a rich boy who doesn't know the suffering of the common people." Usually tenants will have one thing in their house, a drum, but it is not a drum, it is just shaped like a drum. When the harvest season comes, there will always be some husks or dust in the rice after drying, so they put the rice into the drum and turn its handle, using the wind to separate the rice inside from the husk dust. I paid for that thing! ”

Ji Zhongting was simply impressed, which also made him feel ashamed. He, who had lived for almost twenty years in the Houmen compound, didn't even know where the food he ate every day came from. On the other hand, the sister in front of him, although he lives in the deep mountains and forests, he understands everything, the interests in the Houmen, the entanglements in the harem, or the lives of the common people. Ordinary, interests, politics, conspiracy, etiquette, and case judgment, he really doesn't know, what else does she not understand.

"Sister, how do you know so much?"

Mo Yu smiled and said, "You once had a saying that was very right, read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles. Sometimes reading is important, but what is more important is that you still have to take a walk, and if you don't see it or participate in it, it will always be recorded in a book like a history book. ”

"Sister, I only understand now that my aunt can't lock you up at all, you are definitely not on Wuyan Mountain all these years, you must have been to many places. Say, be honest. ”

At first, it was still closed, but after the night sky went up, it couldn't be closed. Sometimes she goes down the mountain to play, and she takes those little girls with her! She can't run anyway, there are free tours, who doesn't want to go!

"I've been to not many places, but I've certainly done more than you." Mo Yu replied with a smile.

Ji Zhongting suddenly remembered something and said, "No wonder Steward Ji came back from the mountain a few times and said that he didn't see you, only a few little maids were there." ”

Steward Ji, I haven't seen him for a long time, Mo Yu asked, "How is he lately?" ”

"After the ninth day of the first month, he said that he was sick, and he has been in his own home all the time, and he has the intention of no longer being the chief manager. Now his son is in charge of many things. ”

"He's a smart guy." So at the beginning, she just said that she wanted the Yuan family to do something, and did not hold Steward Ji responsible, because he knew that Steward Ji would deal with herself and didn't need her to do it herself. "Where's the old lady?"

"It doesn't seem to be anything, this morning, I was in a hurry to send my aunt away! I guess I'm afraid of the rumors in the capital! ”

Rumors were one reason, but not the main factor in the old lady's sending her away. This old lady is a smart person, as soon as the news of Father-in-law An's arrest came out, she knew that the matter of the Yuan family, it was hopeless to ask the Queen Mother, and it was even more impossible to ask for Concubine Xian, because Concubine Xian was not Moyu's opponent at all, and if she was really made unable to give birth to a child by Moyu, the loss would be even greater. So I had to send the Yuan family away first, at least I can't anger Moyu now, and when Moyu dies that day, I can just take the Yuan family back when the time comes. What rumors are not rumors, since they are rumors, there will be times when they are forgotten, as long as something new comes out in this capital, this matter will soon be covered.

As he was talking, someone outside came in to report that the young lady was asking to see him.

The young lady is Liu Yeqing. She came to Jingxuan, is there anything wrong? Ji Zhongting looked at Mo Yu, meaning whether she wanted to avoid it. saw Mo Yu shake his head and said, "No, let her in!" I'm not unseemly. ”

When Liu Yeqing came in, he was followed by a maid with a few packets of herbs in her hands. When he saw Moyu in the room, he was surprised, but he quickly calmed down and saluted. "Cheap concubine, see Concubine Li."

Mo Yu asked her to get up and smiled, "Am I scared you?" ”

Of course, Liu Yeqing didn't dare to say, "Yes, you really scared me." He just stood there and said politely, "Don't dare." ”

Mo Yu didn't embarrass her, Ji Zhongting took a step forward and asked, "Sister-in-law came to me, but what's the matter?" ”

"Just now, my father sent someone back to spread the word, saying that he received the holy decree today, and he was going to hold a family banquet in the evening, so the old lady asked me to tell you, let you go to Qinxin Tower, and see if you can invite Concubine Li to the banquet, but I didn't expect that Concubine Li was here."

The old lady is quite smart, and Ji Mansion is closer to Ji Zhongting. Whether they don't want to see her now or dare not see her, they actually take advantage of him.

Mo Yu looked away and said, "I won't be here tonight, I still have some private matters to finish before returning to the palace." ”

"Since Concubine Li has something, it's a pity, I will tell the old lady the truth."

"Hmm." Mo Yu looked at the medicine in the little girl's hand and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?" ”

The light in Liu Yeqing's eyes flashed, and then he regained his composure, and said softly: "It's not a big deal, it's the incident I said last time in the Niangniang Palace." Because Ji Zhongting was present, she was embarrassed to say it so obviously. After thinking for a while, he still knelt on the ground on his knees and said, "Niangniang, the concubine knows that this request is excessive, but the concubine really hopes that you can do the concubine a favor." ”

As soon as she knelt, her maid knelt with her. Ji Zhongting didn't expect his sister-in-law to kneel, looked at Mo Yu with some embarrassment, and said, "Sister-in-law can say anything she wants, don't do this." ”

Mo Yu was also not very happy, she knelt down, not like asking her to help, but like a threat, and said lightly: "If you have something, just say it, get up first!" ”

"Xie Niangniang." Liu Yeqing got up and said, "The concubine just wants to invite the concubine to help the concubine take the pulse." ”

So that's what happened. Mo Yu's heart warmed slightly, and she asked, "Do you believe me?" ”

Liu Yeqing bowed his head slightly, although this Concubine Li did not deal with the people of the Ji family. But she has a good heart, she just treats things and not people, otherwise everyone in the Ji family will suffer from the Yuan family's incident. "The concubine believes in the mother."

In addition to Ji Zhongting, there are still people in the Ji Mansion who are willing to believe her, which is really unexpected. Let Liu Yeqing sit on the couch and stretch out her hand, the jade finger put on her wrist, stayed for a while, and then said: "Your complexion does look a little better than before, but this situation is very dangerous, because you are only good on the outside, but you are wasted on the inside." The medicine you are taking now must have gotten the home remedies! ”

Liu Yeqing nodded and said, "It's someone the old lady knows and took the medicine from him." ”

Mo Yu said incredulously: "She didn't take you to the doctor to check the pulse, so she just took the medicine back?" ”

Liu Yeqing nodded and said softly: "The old lady said this, it is not polite. ”

What is not polite, in the final analysis, I don't want to publicize the ugliness of the family. If others know that the eldest and youngest lady of the Ji family can't give birth, then where will her face go? When she was in the palace, she would rather choose a home remedy than let Mo Yu diagnose her pulse, I really can't imagine what this old woman was doing in her heart?
