Empress Huo's mood has recently become very good because of the plague of the eldest prince Liang Xi, and seeing that the emperor and the imperial doctors are becoming more and more hopeless about Liang Xi, she is even more heartbroken, and she can't wait to see Shen Zhen holding her son's cold corpse with her own eyes, thinking about it makes her feel relieved. Not only that, Concubine Yin Muqing has also been very peaceful recently, she has never visited Shen Zhen in Yiqian Palace, and she rarely even leaves the palace, which makes the queen feel a lot more relieved.

The maid beside the queen tiptoed in and whispered, "Queen Mother, Concubine Chen has come to say goodbye." ”

The corners of the queen's mouth were slightly raised, but her smile was full of indifference. "Oh? I'm here so early today, let her in. ”

"Has the queen been practicing calligraphy lately?"

The queen raised her eyebrows, looked at Mu Qing with sharp eyes, and asked, "This palace has been idle for a few days, but how did Concubine Chen know about it?" ”

"Niangniang don't worry, the concubine didn't put any eyeliner in your bedroom, the reason why I can guess is because there is a faint ink fragrance in Niangniang's room."

The queen's expression was slightly relaxed, and the smile on her face was particularly far-fetched. "Really? I didn't expect Concubine Chen's nose to be so smart and so careful. ”

Mu Qing didn't think about the queen's ridicule, so he took a moment to straighten the corners of his slightly wrinkled skirt, and asked seemingly casually: "It seems that Niangniang has been in a good mood recently?" ”

"The floods in the south have been well controlled, the emperor is in a good mood, and the palace is naturally relieved." The queen falsely played an official tone, and then asked hypocritically, "What? Has Concubine Chen been in a bad mood lately? ”

The smile in the queen's eyes was so triumphant, and there was obvious provocation and mockery in her tone. But Mu Qing is like a pool of stagnant water without waves, no matter how the queen provokes and embarrasses, it is difficult to cause ripples in her meaning. Mu Qing still said lightly: "Sick and crippled, it's good to live a few more days, how can you take care of whether you are in a good mood or not." ”

The queen felt like a punch into the cotton, and felt very bored, and her face immediately turned cold. "Since Concubine Chen is weak, she should stay in her own dormitory, and don't run outside if she has nothing to do, especially some places you shouldn't go."

The deep meaning of the queen's words is very clear, she just wants to tell Sù Muqing not to go to Yiqian Palace again, and stop thinking of joining forces with Concubine Zhen and trying to fight against the Middle Palace. Mu Qing naturally knew what the queen was thinking, but he didn't say anything, he only bowed his head and thanked: "Thank you for the queen's concern, the concubine must remember!" Suddenly, Mu Qing's words changed, and his smile became even more evil. It's just that the concubine came to the Niangniang Palace today because she had something to give to the queen! ”

"Oh? I don't know what Concubine Chen has to give to this palace? The queen was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Mu Qing vigilantly, thinking in her heart what trick the other party was playing.

The corner of Mu Qing's eyes squinted, and motioned for Zhu Yu to leave the house temporarily. The queen frowned, and Concubine Chen deliberately separated the maids, which obviously showed that their next words could not be heard by outsiders. So the queen also sent away all the palace maids and eunuchs in the house, and only she and Mu Qing were left in the huge main hall.

After everyone left, Queen Huo said impatiently: "Concubine Chen is so mysterious, what do you want to show the palace?" ”

Mu Qing didn't say a word, took out a small package from his arms, and quietly handed it to the queen.

The queen didn't immediately reach out to take the package, but frowned and stared at the package in Concubine Chen's hand, and asked, "What is this?" ”

Mu Qing saw that the queen was reluctant to stretch out her hand, so he put the package on the low table beside him, and said faintly: "This is full of some medicinal materials, but these medicinal materials were found in the Tai Hospital. ”

The queen smiled disdainfully: "Is Concubine Chen joking with this palace?" What's so strange about the medicinal herbs found in the hospital? Concubine Chen shouldn't be sick and confused, right? ”

"The medicinal material here is called Kuji, I wonder if Niangniang is still familiar with this medicinal material?"

Mu Qing didn't look at the queen when she said this, but she could clearly feel that when she mentioned the word bitterness, the queen's body shook obviously. After a while, I remembered the queen's panicked and trembling voice. "This palace has no research on medicinal materials, what does Concubine Chen want to say?"

"These bitter powders were found in the palace in the royal doctor's house, and there are others....in the decoction taken by the great prince!" Mu Qing stared at the queen tightly, and the smile on his lips was tingling with a chill.

The queen's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she asked rhetorically, "So what?" ”

"The prescription prescribed to the eldest prince by the Imperial Hospital did not contain the bitter herb, so why would the imperial physician add a bitter herb to the great prince's medicine?" Mu Qing slowly stood up and walked towards the queen step by step, with a demagogic Yeyan in her eyes, "The concubine thought to herself, the queen must be very clear about this matter, so she brought the medicine powder to the Niangniang Palace." ”

"Hehe, joke! How can Hongu know about the matter of the hospital?! Huo Shi used a sneering smirk to cover up his weakness.

"Really? Mother doesn't know? Mu Qing pretended to be surprised and asked, "Do you need the concubine to pass the imperial doctor to the Niangniang's dormitory now, so that she can explain it to Niangniang in person." ”

Huo Shi couldn't hold it back anymore at this time, and stood up with a 'hoof', looking at Mu Qing in a panic, his voice cold to the bone. "What the hell are you trying to do?!"

Mu Qing suddenly covered his mouth and laughed, and the laughter looked particularly strange in the empty palace. "What do you want to do? If the concubine really wants to do something, I'm afraid Niangniang won't be sitting here unharmed now. ”

The queen instantly understood the meaning of Mu Qing's words, she was right, if she really wanted to report herself, then she should have taken the bitter powder in her hand to sue the emperor by now. But she didn't, but brought it up in front of herself, why? Is it to threaten yourself with this?

The queen's face turned cold, she took a deep breath, forced herself to stay calm, and asked, "Imperial Doctor Wang must already be in your hands now, right?" ”

"Imperial Physician Wang carefully broke his leg in the palace yesterday, just so that the concubine found out in time, and the concubine had already sent someone to send him back to the palace." Mu Qing said as if he was fake.

However, of course, the queen didn't believe Mu Qing's words, she knew that Mu Qing must have imprisoned Imperial Doctor Wang at this time, so she dared to come to the door to provoke. The murderous aura in the queen's eyes became thicker, her fists clenched in her sleeves, and she gritted her teeth and asked word by word: "Why don't you go directly to the emperor?" What exactly do you want?! (To be continued.) )
