Because of the framing of Concubine Zhen's mother and son, Tang Meiren was stripped of her title by Emperor Liang Yinhao and sent to the cold palace. However, after all, this matter is related to the reputation of the royal family and the eldest son of the emperor, so Liang Yinhao only drafted the will on the grounds that Tang Meiren committed a crime, and did not inform everyone of the truth.

Since then, with Tang Meiren being imprisoned in the cold palace, this whole thing has become taboo in the palace, and no one dares to mention the words 'the emperor's eldest son is ominous'.

Suddenly, whether they knew the details or went with the flow, almost the entire palace concubines and slaves went to Yiqian Palace, trying to curry favor with Concubine Zhen. And those who were originally sorry for Concubine Zhen's mother and son came one after another, hoping to make amends and ease the relationship with Concubine Zhen at the last moment. Unfortunately, these people's plans fell through in the end. Since the truth of the matter was revealed, Concubine Zhen has been refusing all the 'guests' who came to visit her on the grounds that she was unwell, including the main palace lady and the queen Huo. Although everyone was a little disappointed that they didn't see Concubine Zhen, when they thought that even the queen had eaten a closed door, they couldn't help but balance a lot in their hearts, and they all went back disappointed.

Of course, these people do not include the cold and arrogant master of Chenzhi Palace, Yin Muqing. Since Tang Meiren was arrested, when everyone was worried about how to meet Concubine Zhen, Mu Qing stayed in his bedroom calmly and never saw Shen Zhen again.

Zhu Yu asked curiously: "Niangniang, now that everyone is crowded into Yiqian Palace, why don't you go and take a look?"

Mu Qing said faintly: "I have already done everything that should be done, and I don't need to please Concubine Zhen." Besides, isn't Concubine Zhen sick? Even if I went, I was only turned away, so why bother? ”

Zhu Yu asked puzzledly, "Isn't Niang Niang curious about what will become of Shen Zhen's mother and son when the matter is over?" ”

Mu Qing put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "What can it become?" Isn't it still the same as before? ”

Zhu Yu nodded, didn't ask any more questions, just stood quietly on the side and waited for Mu Qing. Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the silver plate hanging in the night sky already looks large and round, looming under the heavy clouds.

The little eunuch of Chenzhi Palace tiptoed into the house and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, there is a palace maid from Yiqian Palace who has come to see her. ”

Zhu Yu glanced at Mu Qing in surprise and confirmed again: "You mean Concubine Zhen's palace maid?" ”

"Exactly!" The little eunuch replied.

"Let her in." Although Mu Qing was also a little surprised, she still kept her face relatively calm.

After the little eunuch turned to leave, Zhu Yu said to Mu Qing incomprehensibly, "Why did Concubine Zhen's palace maid suddenly come here?" Is it Yi Qiangong and what happened again? ”

Mu Qing was particularly calm, "Let's not guess first, let's see what the little palace maid says." ”

In a moment, the eunuch led in a woman, dressed in a heavy cloak, with her head hanging low, and her face looking blurred in the dim candlelight.

Mu Qing was the first to ask, "I don't know what Concubine Zhen sent you for?" ”

"Slave and maid see Concubine Chen, Niangniang Wan'an." The palace maid slowly raised her head.

At this time, Mu Qing and Zhu Yu both saw the face of the woman in front of them clearly, and the two couldn't help but be shocked, and they were stunned for a long time before they reacted. It turned out that the woman in front of her was not the little palace maid of Yi Qiangong at all, this person was the lord of Yi Qiangong, Concubine Zhen Shen Zhen.

Mu Qing originally knew that Shen Hao's claim that she was sick and unwell was an excuse to avoid those who came to visit, but she really didn't expect that Shen Hao would secretly run out of the palace dressed up like this. However, Mu Qing quickly recovered his mind, raised his eyes and motioned for Zhu Yu to take the people outside the house to wait. After everyone retreated, Mu Qingfang spoke: "Why did Niangniang come to my Chenzhi Palace at this time?" Still dressed as a palace maid? ”

"In order to hide people's eyes, it is also a last resort." Shen Hao replied briefly.

Mu Qing smiled, raised his hand to invite the other party to take a seat, and asked slowly: "Niangniang is afraid that others will see through your lie of pretending to be sick?" ”

"I just don't want to deal with those hypocritical villains who have honey-bellied swords during the Chinese New Year, so I call myself sick and simply don't see any of them."

Mu Qing sneered, and pertinently persuaded: "Niangniang's move is inevitably a little unkind, everyone will think that Niangniang is too arrogant and cold, this is not good, and there will be too many enemies." In the palace, even if it is hypocritical, sometimes you still have to do what you should do. ”

"What about you, Concubine Chen? What do you say from the bottom of your heart? What are the words that are false? Shen Hao blurted out suddenly, even she herself didn't expect to say such things suddenly.

Mu Qing was also a little stunned by such a rhetorical question, and lowered his head and laughed at himself. She didn't answer Shen Hao's question, but deliberately changed the topic and said, "Niangniang came to me today, but what questions do you want to ask?" ”

Shen Zhen didn't expect that Mu Qing had already understood her intention to come, so she didn't hide it and nodded yes. In fact, since Emperor Liang Yinhao issued an order to revoke the ban on herself and her son, she has a thousand words in her heart to ask Concubine Chen, so she has been waiting for Concubine Chen in Yiqian Palace these days, but she didn't expect that there was no reason for coming, and there were indeed a lot of people who shouldn't come, she was too lazy to socialize, so she refused to leave the door. But the questions that have accumulated in Shen Zhen's heart are real, if they are not solved, she always feels that there is a big stone pressing on her in her heart. So today, she didn't care about any palace etiquette, changed into the clothes of a palace maid, and did the first crazy thing since she entered the palace.

Shen Zhen threw out the questions that had plagued her for many days one after another, "Concubine Chen, you were also living comfortably that day, you witnessed the whole process, what happened that day?" Why did Tang Meiren suddenly admit everything? The dead flowers and plants in the imperial garden, is it really Tang Meiren and the queen who did it? ”

Mu Qing looked directly at the inquiring eyes of his body, and said coldly: "Why do you have to ask so much, do you ask for everything to understand?" ”

Shen Zhen said firmly: "This matter is related to the lives of my mother and son, if I don't ask clearly, I really can't sleep." ”

Mu Qing knew that Shen Zhen was weak on the outside, but she was actually a stubborn person on the inside, and sometimes even her brother couldn't do anything about her. So Mu Qing didn't hide it, and directly admitted: "Those plants and trees in the imperial garden are not the masterpieces of Tang Beauty and the queen, but I specially sent someone to do it, in order to make things bigger and let the emperor intervene." Later, Tang Meiren was a thief and tried to dispose of the remaining evidence in the palace, which allowed Commander Yin to catch it right! ”

"I know what you're saying. But how do you know when Tang Meiren's palace maid Wan'er will do it, and why is the timing so coincidental? Could it be that Concubine Chen asked your father **** to wait outside the gate of Tang Beauty Palace? ”

"Of course not, how can there be such a coincidence in the world? The so-called coincidences are nothing more than deliberate. Because Tang Beauty's palace maid Wan'er is my person! (To be continued.) )
