"By the way, mention Concubine Jing...... Have you heard about Concubine Jing? ”

"You hide in the warm pavilion and don't see anyone, but the news is well-informed." Jun Yihuang took the tea handed by Su Lingyu and thought thoughtfully: "Although I knew that Xia Ruoqing was not easy to provoke, I didn't expect her to be so ruthless and unkind to herself. Ling Zun folded and impeached Xia Changze for many crimes, she was afraid that she had a grudge, and she had to be cautious. ”

"Alas, I wrote to persuade my father not to get involved in the Xia case. After all, the Xia family has been based on the high position of the court since the founding of Nantang, and there are many protégés in the upper and lower halls, even if the high platform collapses today, the emaciated camel is still bigger than the horse. However, my father didn't listen and insisted on folding up, and I really couldn't do it. ”

"You don't have to think about it, this court is complicated, where you can get rid of it if you want to. If His Majesty wants to take someone to open the knife, someone needs to give a reason, and Ling Zun can only speculate on the holy will, and he can't talk about fault. ”

"That being said...... Forget it, don't talk about the previous dynasty. What I can't figure out is His Majesty's thoughts. Xia Ruoqing self-destructed her face at the moment, what is the reason for her joy, Her Majesty knows it. The previous dynasty severely punished the Xia family, but the harem summoned Xia Ruoqing to accompany Xia Ruoqing for two days and never leave. If you want to show mercy to the Xia family, it's really not like it. If you want to investigate it strictly to the end, this favor Xia Ruoqing, the courtiers who were impeached in the previous dynasty are afraid that they will have to guess His Majesty's intentions a few more times, and they dare not speak as bluntly as before. And the Xia family is now being detained in the Wind and Thunder Prison, what kind of place is that? The rabbit is in a hurry and wants to bite, so she is not afraid that she will do something in a hurry? ”

Jun Yihuang's eyes were full of smiles, and he glanced at Su Lingyu and said, "Have you ever seen a cat that is afraid of mice?" In the midst of the control, watching the rat under the palm panic is a pastime. What's more, I guess His Majesty wants to use Xia Ruoqing to stabilize the people in Xia's case first, after all, this case is too wide-ranging, and I'm afraid there are still some people who haven't been exposed. But when the Xia family arrives in this situation, those who have not been exposed must also plan for themselves, and it is inevitable that they will do something out of the ordinary. His Majesty's return to favor Xia Ruoqing gave those people a glimmer of hope, stabilized them first, and then captured them one by one. Our majesty is thinking of killing everything this time, it is estimated that Su Lingyu will not embroider half of the makeup on her face, and her majesty will also find a reason to see her. ”

Su Lingyu flicked the warm pot in his palm, as if he was a little absent-minded, and said at this moment: "Sister really knows what His Majesty is thinking. ”

"After all, I have been in the palace for more than ten years......" After saying half a sentence, Jun Yihuang realized that Su Lingyu's tone was a little wrong: "How can I hear that there is a needle hidden in your words?" ”

"Where do I have?" Having said that, Su Lingyu's eyes were half-narrowed, and his gaze flickered on Jun Yihuang's face, "Hmph." ”

This is clearly there, but Jun Yihuang was confused for a while, and he was stunned that Su Lingyu was fine just now, why he was suddenly unhappy. Su Lingyu was too lazy to speak, covered her mouth and yawned, pouting and said, "I'm sleepy, sister take a nap with me." ”

"Why do you have to pull me up when you sleep." Having said that, Jun Yihuang had long been used to it, and stretched out his hand to pull the person up.

"You are fragrant and soft, and it is still warm in the winter, I don't know how much better than the soup woman, of course I have to pull it."

Su Lingyu still seemed to be a little displeased, and slowly put on embroidered shoes. At this moment, the curtain flickered, and Qing Xuan came in from the outside, and saluted: "Concubine Shu, Concubine Ning, Fu Guiren came to greet Niangniang, I don't know if you want to see her?" ”

"Fu Guiren? Which Fu nobleman? ”

There are many low-ranking palace concubines in the palace, and Jun Yihuang can't remember who Fu Guiren is referring to. Su Lingyu's overshoes were stunned, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Fu Liuying? ”

"Back to your concubine, exactly."

"Is that the Fu Liuying you said entered the palace with you and took care of you a lot at the beginning?"

"Hmm."

"Back to Concubine Shu, Fu Guiren came the day before yesterday, and when the two Niangniang were taking a nap, Fu Guiren went back. Do you want to see you today? Or was it sent by the slave and maid? ”

Jun Yihuang groaned slightly, and said, "If you are tired, go to sleep first, I will go to see her, and I will come back to accompany you later." ”

"Wait, I'll go with you." Su Lingyu said: "Sister Fu treats me sincerely, because I can't live with her." It's no wonder that she said a word in front of the Queen Mother, she might be classified as an accomplice to frame Concubine Jing's slippery fetus, she has always been timid, and it is not wrong to only say what she saw with her own eyes. Later, I befriended you, and she accepted the gift to the concubine, and the two positions were different, so they gradually drifted apart. Today she is willing to come over thinking that she wants to rebuild the old good, if I don't see her, I am afraid that she will think that I still hold a grudge, it is better to go together. ”

"This ...... It's good. ”

Su Lingyu was right, and Jun Yihuang no longer stopped him, but he just wrapped the person tightly, looked up and down and couldn't get in the cold wind, and then pulled Su Lingyu to the guest room of the front hall to meet people.

Fu Liuying waited in the front hall for a long time, and finally met someone. After seeing the ceremony, Fu Liuying was very restrained when she first spoke, but after all, she was an old man, and she lived with Su Lingyu in Qingtao Garden for nearly a year. Talking about the past, Su Lingyu deliberately got close again, Fu Liuying slowly let go, and then the three of them talked very interestingly, and they didn't leave until it was dark.

It's night.

At this moment, the night is late, the Chengming Hall is quiet and peaceful, and many slaves and miscellaneous servants have fallen asleep. There was a figure in the porch with a hurried look, burying his head and going straight to the side courtyard along the corridor.

After entering the courtyard door, the man breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to push the door into the house with a restrained expression, but he heard a voice from inside the house, and hurriedly dodged back to the dark.

The person speaking inside the door was in the main hall, separated only by a thin door, so that people outside the door could hear it clearly. A person's voice is soft and enters the water, refreshing people's heartstrings, and he is Xia Ruoqing. Although the voice of one person is also pleasant, there is always a coldness that cannot be dissolved, it is Helan Fu, the master of Chengming Palace.

"My brother sent someone to inform me today, saying that he and his father were going back to Beiyan, and asked me to try to go to the West Gate the night after tomorrow. Will you go with me? ”

In response to Helan Fu, there was a silence.

"Huh." A chuckle with a lot of self-deprecation, "I knew you didn't want to." ”

"Helan, you know I didn't mean that!"

"In order to get close to that Emperor Nanzhao, you would rather self-destruct! That's it, you're still hiding ...... from me! ”

"If I don't hide it from you, will you agree?"

“……”

After a long time, Helan Fu sighed heavily: "Do you really want to stay here?" ”

Xia Ruoqing lowered her head and looked at the jumping lantern, and a miserable smile gradually bloomed on her face: "Ah Fu, have you ever put yourself in my shoes?" ”

“……”

"Uncle Helan took your brother and sister to Nantang as hostages, and now more than ten years have passed, Nantang's supervision of you has long been relaxed. What's more, you have been plotting for a long time, and I believe that with the ability of Uncle Helan and Brother Helan, they will be able to quietly take you out of the palace and leave Nantang. As soon as the big thing is completed, you can return to Beiyan and reunite with your family. But what about me? Have you thought about it, the Xia family grew up in Nantang for generations, and there are hundreds of people in the clan today! My father, mother, younger brother and sister are all locked up in the Wind and Thunder Prison! I can go, but I'm gone, what will they do?! Or do you think that they will inevitably be guilty of capital crimes anyway, and it will be implicated if I leave without sense? Ah Fu, do you know how much torture there is in that wind and thunder prison? Do you know how ruthless Emperor Nanzhao was by nature? The concubine escaping from the palace is the most intolerable thing for both the royal family and a man. I can go to Beiyan with you disappearing, and if Emperor Nanzhao can't find me, he will inevitably anger his family. My family has been convicted, Emperor Nanzhao will not give death in private, but he will torture them with all the punishment, so that their life is worse than death! A sentence willing to be so relaxed, but what about later? Can I live in peace? Can I stay with you for a long time? Helan Fu, you sue me, can I do it! ”

Xia Ruoqing deliberately controlled it, her voice was not high, but the trills between the words were as tight as a burst, and she was already extremely excited. She stroked the half of her grass-tattooed cheek with her palm, and laughed deeply, but the expression on her face was more ugly than crying: "You think I am willing to tattoo these on my face? What woman in this world doesn't pay attention to her appearance? But now, what else can I do except go to great lengths to get close to Emperor Nanzhao and serve him? I knew that there was no hope, but I had to try, the kindness of my parents was as great as heaven, how could I watch them beheaded in the autumn and be indifferent! ”

After a long time, Xia Ruoqing finally suppressed her feelings and calmed down, and sighed: "Ah Fu, you can go." ”

“…… I'm gone, what if you're alone in the palace? ”

"Do your best and die without regrets."

Helan Fu stared at the slender soft fingers that were tightly clasped on the edge of the table on the other side, and his joints were white, his eyes finally closed, and he let out a long breath and said, "Okay, I lost, I'll accompany you." ”

Xia Ruoqing was stunned, thinking that she had misheard, and asked rhetorically, "What did you say?" ”

"I'll get back to my brother and ask them to go back first. I will stay in the palace with you. ”

"How can you stay with me? Even if Emperor Nanzhao didn't find out that the Northern Yan Proton was missing, when your plan was completed, Uncle Helan would be the Lord of Northern Yan. Do you know that when the time comes, you will be the biggest bargaining chip in the hands of Emperor Nanzhao against Northern Yan? When the time comes, if you want to leave, it's not as easy as it is now! ”

"I know." Helan Fu bowed slightly, "I will let my father and brother leave a line and take me out of the palace at any time." And if the big thing happens, the power in the hands of the father and brother will be different from now. The people of Beiyan are brave by nature, and their bravery is difficult to match, but over the years, because King Chenghuai has been dedicated to cultivating immortals and has no intention of government affairs, and the various departments of Beiyan have no one to lead, and they are fighting for themselves, so they have been suppressed by Nantang from time to time. As long as someone raises their arms and shouts, the various departments of Beiyan will unite, and the current situation in Nantang will not be matched at all. When the time comes, Emperor Nanzhao will not dare to touch me, and maybe even Uncle and Aunt Xia will be able to go to Beiyan together. ”

"Really?" Xia Ruoqing smiled bitterly, in a complicated mood. The more powerful Helan Fei is, the more important Helan Fu is, how could Emperor Nanzhao easily let her return to Beiyan? Tankou opened and closed several times, but Xia Ruoqing didn't say anything after all, just whispered: "Thank you." ”

"Does it still hurt?" Helan Fu crossed the desk and reached out to touch Xia Ruoqing's cheek.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"I shouldn't have beaten you that day."

"I know, you're mad at me." Xia Ruoqing's cheeks rubbed along Helan Fu's palm, her eyes fixed on Helan Fu, and her apricot eyes seemed to overflow with water.

"I'll rest here today, and tomorrow you will move back to the main hall."

"I'll let Bang Rong pack up tomorrow and go back. But tonight here is a temporary residence, your change of clothes and clothes are not prepared, a lot of inconvenience, it is better for you to go back first, I will look for you tomorrow. ”

Helan Fu thought about it, and no longer insisted, the night was very late, and he said goodbye to Su Lingyu and went back alone.

The people who were hidden in the shadows saw that Helan Fu had gone far, so they entered the house and lifted the hood on their heads, which was to save their faces.

"Back to Niangniang, today Fu Guiren and Ning Guifei talked for a long time, and Ruan Xiang actually had to walk through Yufeng Palace. Ruan Xiang heard that Concubine Ning was now very strictly guarded, and everything had to be tested before it could be touched, and Concubine Shu's side was much lax in comparison. Coincidentally, Ruan Xiang walked to the dust washing hall in Yufeng Palace today, where she was in charge of laundry, and heard a rough envoy named Xiangyu cursing Concubine Shu in a low voice. Ruan Xiang had already spoken to Nagong E, and when the time was right, she would put things into Concubine Shu's underwear. ”

"Well, it's done brilliantly. Su Lingyu and Jun Yihuang have always been friends, and Su Lingyu can't be moved, and Jun Yihuang is the same. Su Lingyu's fetus was unstable, and the fetus naturally could not be saved after being stimulated. After the deed is done, reward her well. ”

"Yes." Bang Rong paused, but still couldn't hold back, and said softly: "Niangniang, the slave maid has actually been back for a while, but Lan Jieyu is here, and the slave maid doesn't dare to come in." ”

Xia Ruoqing's expression did not move, and her chin raised slightly: "Did you hear it?" ”

"Yes. Empress...... You just persuaded Lan Jieyu to leave the palace, are you serious? If she leaves, won't the arrangement she made before ......

"Seriously." Xia Ruoqing said lightly: "If she really wants to leave, I will sue her about Gu worms." She returned to Beiyan with Uncle Helan, and Uncle Helan should be a magician to solve it for her. She hated me or was angry, I deserved it, at most I would pay her life. ”

"Mother's ......"

"Grace." Xia Ruoqing's eyes rolled slightly, her fingertips touched her chest, and she said slowly: "Do you think that I am both ruthless and terrifying, Helan Fu treats me sincerely, but I am calculating with her." ”

"Slaves don't dare."

"Actually, I would also like to take a knife and cut open my chest to see if the heart inside is black." Xia Ruoqing looked up and smiled, a teardrop dripping down the corner of her eye, "If I am really a man, I will fight on the battlefield and make meritorious contributions with blood, and I don't have to fall into this scheming scheme, how good it would be." ”
