Chapter 228: Persuasion

I looked at her incomprehensibly, the Queen Mother sighed lightly, and then said: "Actually, the dead Shen Guiren was sent to the palace by my Shen clan, and he was just a palace maid, but he didn't want to be taken by the emperor. I don't know if the emperor is because she is my Shen family, so she deliberately raised or how, and actually sealed the nobles. Our plan had nothing to do with her, but she needed help with some follow-up matters, so I told her about it. I didn't expect her to assassinate the emperor before me, although it was different from what I had imagined before, but it was a tortuous completion of the plan. Of course, because of her Shen background, the emperor was also a little suspicious of me, but the emperor also knew that I was not a fool, and if it were me, it would be impossible to arrange it like this. Originally, I didn't understand it, but it was only after I went to the prison to see the cousin of the Shen family who sent her to the palace that day that I understood what was going on. ”

I heard the helplessness in the Queen Mother's tone, so I guessed: "Could it be that she wants to replace the girl who was going to assassinate?"

The Queen Mother nodded and said, "You are indeed smart. In fact, it turned out that I had asked the Shen family to send a group of daughters of the Shen family's small families into the palace. Their identities in the palace have nothing to do with the Shen family, they are sent to the palaces to collect news for me. Qiu Yun, who is now in Ruan Guifei's palace, is one of them. When I went to the prison this time, I learned that this Qiu Yun turned out to be the sister of the dead Shen Guiren. It's just that when she was sent to the palace at that time, the sisters were not big, and the elder sister was left by the family because she looked better, and sent her sister Qiuyun to the palace. My sister didn't know about it, thinking that her sister had been abducted just as her parents said. It wasn't until she was about to be sent to the palace that her mother told her about it. So she had the idea of coming to find her sister from the beginning. It's a pity that I didn't know about it before, and I told her the whole plan, which I think must have been in the process. She realized that Qiuyun was her sister, so she took the risk to do it...... Hoping to save her sister's life. ”

The more I listened to the Queen Mother, the more frightened I became. I was deeply moved by Shen Guiren's sisterhood, and I was chilled by the ruthlessness of their parents, and even with it, I was a little dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's eyes.

"Well, I didn't really think about letting them carry out some dead orders at the time. Just help me find out the news. It's just that in this palace, there are too many bodies that can't help themselves, I thought you would understand. "Who is the Queen Mother? With just a glance from me, she read all my emotions.

Yes, who am I to blame the Queen Mother? If it weren't for the idea I had, no one would have died. Maybe Xixuan really said something right. I thought I was doing good for others. In fact, not knowing is a harmful act. "Then did Qiuyun know that her sister died for her?" I couldn't help but ask.

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "Where can a maid in this palace have so many emotions." I can't tell her, because if she is unstable, not only will she hurt herself, but she may also harm her family. Besides, even if I tell her, what's the use? Since it is meaningless and potentially harmful, I will not do it. “

I know the Queen Mother is right. She has been standing in the palace for many years, is it just by virtue of her appearance? Of course not. She calculates everything in her life too clearly. Thinking of this, I took off a jade bracelet from my wrist and handed it to the Queen Mother, and said, "Queen Mother, please give this jade bracelet to Qiuyun, if she has the opportunity to leave the palace in the future, take this bracelet to Huixian Yaxu to find Ah Qiao, I will definitely settle her well." "I just hope I have this opportunity.

The Queen Mother took the jade bracelet, which was not a very valuable thing, but because it was worn for a long time, Ah Qiao recognized it.

"Okay, I'll hand it over, but I'll have to wait until she's out of the palace. In this house, anything of unknown origin can cost people's lives, especially the lives of slaves and maids. The Queen Mother said in a deep voice, "I also hope that you will stop sticking to these things, and understand that if you want to achieve great things, you can't be a woman's kindness." ”

Event? I suddenly had a thought in my mind that I wanted to give up. If you can't be a woman, then how many sisters and husbands and wives will die on this "big thing" of me? How many of my friends, relatives, and even loved ones will die for this "great event" of mine? I suddenly remembered Jiang Yunxiu's words that day: "If you fail to win the heir, you can only die." "Do I really want to force him to death? Does this matter really end with "death"?

Seeing that I was silent, the Queen Mother sighed lightly and said, "Once upon a time, your father was just like you, he couldn't do anything, and he was reluctant to hurt anything. But later, he also understood that sometimes his cruelty was kind to others. Just like Qiuyun and them, if it weren't for the current prosperity of the Shen family, their lives might have been even more miserable, and they wouldn't even be able to live now. Therefore, although Shen Guiren knew that I was going to let her sister carry out a mortal mission, she must hate me in her heart, but she still had to go to Ruan Guifei for half a day before going, pointing the finger at Ruan Guifei and discarding the relationship with me. Just because she knew that I was not only about their sisters, but also about her parents, brothers and even her clansmen, even though she hated me, she also understood me. ”

Is it? What a simple and profound truth this is, the Queen Mother also said it very clearly, but why is my heart still so uncomfortable? Is it that I haven't adapted yet? Or do you want to make your heart harder and harder?

The Queen Mother saw that I still didn't react, and sighed: "Actually, it's not just the slaves and maids in the palace, even these masters are mostly involuntarily. By the way, do you know the Seventh Princess Jiang Yunqi?"

What appeared in my mind was the woman who was as gentle as water, and her eyebrows and eyes were so faint that I couldn't remember it, but I could still remember her trance-like appearance, and the soft look she had when she mentioned her third brother. I nodded, "I know, I had a relationship with her." ”

The Queen Mother said slowly: "Then Jiang Yunqi has been friends with the fourth prince Jiang Yunlin since he was a child, because Jiang Yunqi's mother is the daughter of the original prince and the princess, and she has known the emperor since she was a child, and she is the concubine accepted by the emperor before becoming the prince. Although I don't like it much, I always have a love for her since I was a child, and I always treat her better. It's a pity that she had a thin life, and she died not long after giving birth to the seventh princess. The emperor also loves Jiang Yunqi very much, and then has the power before the Taifu, so Jiang Yunqi is also a powerful princess in the palace. I don't know if Jiang Yunlin intends to win over, or Jiang Yunqi also wants to get Jiang Yunlin's care, anyway, the relationship between the two of them is very good, it can be said that Jiang Yunlin's secrets and even the major events about the succession before, Jiang Yunqi also knew everything. ”

I know this, basically no one knew about me and Jiang Yunlin back then, but he told Jiang Yunqi very frankly, which can be seen. (To be continued......)
