Unexpectedly, the county lord of Qiling took the first step to pull Su Qi.

"Ouch." Su Qi stumbled, but fortunately, Chu Qing behind him quickly stepped forward to help him.

"Oh no, no, Su Qi." The county lord of Qiling said anxiously, pulling Su Qi into the house, while waving his hand casually, signaling everyone who followed him to retreat.

The girls and mothers-in-law who came with them all quietly retreated, only Chu Qing did not move.

Su Qi held the hand of the county lord of Qiling with his backhand, nodded to Chu Qing, and the girl left.

The county lord of Qiling closed the door with one hand after entering the door.

Without waiting for Su Qi to ask, the county lord of Qiling had already spoken, "You can see my Xuanwu brother these days?" ”

Su Qi frowned and thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "No." ”

She remembered that the last time she saw that guy was at the funeral of the former emperor, and he followed behind the empress dowager, and she couldn't see joy and sorrow.

"What's wrong?" Su Qi's heart flashed with uneasiness.

"I've heard that, I've heard that, too." The county lord of Qiling lowered his voice in vain, "Brother Xuanwu is imprisoned. ”

Su Qi was taken aback, "How can this be?" ”

She wanted to ask who it was, but when she thought of everything that had happened before, the answer became more and more obvious.

"I heard...... The new emperor imprisoned Xuanwu's brother. ”

Su Qi's heart twitched, and his heartbeat seemed to miss a beat.

She grabbed Qi Ling's hand and asked anxiously, "Do you know where the prisoner is?" What's going on now? Did Murong Qin say when he released Xuanwu Yicheng? ”

A series of questions crackled towards the county lord of Qiling, and she was dumbfounded for a moment. But what surprised her the most was that. The resounding name of "Murong Qin" popped out of Su Qi's mouth.

Who doesn't know this name in the Wuzhou Continent has become the latest monarch of the Great Yue Kingdom, and in just one month, he has purged the court and consolidated the king's power, and no one among the many princes of the previous emperor dared to have any dissent.

Qi Ling, she has always heard her father Xicheng Hou's sigh recently, saying that the new emperor's means and abilities are a must, what the queen mother seems to be very optimistic about the new emperor, what to say and now everyone in the government and the opposition are united, these Qi Ling She knows half of it, but the last words are inexplicably remembered.

"From now on, watch out for this new emperor!"

Like a reminder, like a warning. More like a warning.

Lord Qiling listened. Except for surprise or surprise. Now that she heard Su Qi's words, the first thing that came to her heart was that Su Qi was really bold!

"Be quiet, now this is the new emperor. Calling the emperor by his name is punishable by death. The county lord of Qiling covered Su Qi's mouth. I looked out the window repeatedly. Fang Cai said in a low voice.

Su Qi didn't think of these things at all in her heart, she only cared about Xuanwu Yicheng.

"Do you even know?" Su Qi asked again and again.

The county lord of Qiling shook his head vigorously, "I just said it." I've heard and heard about it. I was also very surprised, so I asked the people around me to go to the Xuanwang Mansion to take a look, I didn't expect that Brother Xuanwu was really not there, and the Xuanwang Mansion was full of birds, according to the mother-in-law in charge, their prince had not returned to the house for several days. When I heard the news, I was even more surprised, and I was very scared, so I ran to you in a hurry. ”

I see.

Su Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if Xuanwu Yicheng is not in the house for ten days and half a month, it does not mean that he is imprisoned, not to mention that he is still imprisoned by the new emperor, this is not a joke.

Su Qi muttered in his heart, scared the baby to death, but fortunately it was just a rumor.

Xicheng Hou's body and bones are still in the recovery stage, although Su Qi went to acupuncture and medicinal baths every now and then, but the foundation ruined by the plague last time has not come and recovered, and now he is in a bizarre coma, Su Qi and those old guys from the Tai Hospital went to investigate the cause afterwards, and there was no specific conclusion after looking for it.

It is precisely because there is no conclusion that Su Qi is always faintly uneasy in his heart.

The county lord of Qiling was comforted and returned to the eldest princess's mansion with a smile.

Su Qi's heart became more and more uneasy.

On the night of the Jiu Nengguo Temple, Xuanwu Yicheng was present, and he already knew everything that should be listened to and what should not be heard, Su Qi asked him worriedly at the time, and he didn't think that the guy didn't care, "My surname is Xuanwu and not Murong, no matter how I say that I am also the only monarch of Xuanwu Kingdom in the future, even if Murong Qin becomes the emperor, will he go to war with Xuanwu for me?" ”

"At the beginning of the new emperor's ascension, what he was most afraid of was internal and external troubles, he would not take such a risk, Su Qi, don't worry."

Yes, she was relieved, after listening to the guy's words at that time, Su Qi was really relieved.

It's just that now, I can't rest assured.

Murong Qin is not stupid, his methods are even more ruthless, these days Su Qi has been advised by his grandmother, and he has not left the mansion for many days, even if Murong Qin wants to capture himself, he can't find a chance, if he wants to come to the general's mansion to get people, he won't dare to come.

Yes, Su Qi had a very secure life during this time.

Xuanwu Yicheng is different.

As the nominal cousin of the new Emperor Murong Qin, Murong Qin had many bad excuses to send Xuanwu Yicheng to the palace, and he didn't even have to say hello to the Empress Dowager.

And Xuanwu Yicheng knows a lot.

Thinking about it from another perspective, if she was Murong Qin, she was afraid that she would not be able to tolerate such a time bomb by her side.

I cleaned it up early, so I didn't have to sleep a lot at night.

Thinking of this, Su Qi couldn't sit still anymore.

She walked to the middle of the courtyard in three or two steps.

The plum blossoms in the corner of the wall have been opened one after another, Xiangfei bamboo is particularly verdant against the background of thin ice and snow, Banxiang is instructing the little girl to sweep the snow, seeing Su Qi running out like this, the girl hurriedly came over, "Lady, it's snowing again, just sweeping is sweeping, but it's still slippery, but you have to be careful under your feet." ”

Su Qi didn't react, her heart was in turmoil.

"Lady, the north wind has been blowing for several days, the plum blossoms in our house are about to bloom, I heard Granny Chensu say that the winter in the imperial capital is extraordinarily long, most of the time it is icy and snowy, it looks good, it is cold, and now the wind is blowing again, the lady still goes into the house."

Words whispering in my ear. Su Qi didn't listen at all. The brows on her forehead furrowed deeper and deeper, and her heart was chaotic, uneasy for a while, worried for a while, and afraid that she was thinking too much, and it was really neither left nor right.

Granny Dusty ran in.

Seeing Su Qi standing in the courtyard, his expression was dumbfounded, and he didn't even have an extra cloak on his body, and the north wind whistled by, blowing up the lady's three thousand green silks. Chensu couldn't help but sink his face. Looking at the half-incense on the side of the lady, it is even more popular.

It's almost in the cold winter wax moon, the girl is still not careful, such a cold day let the lady stand in the wind and snow, if one accidentally catches a cold, how is it good?

"Half-incense. Why don't you go and find a cloak for the lady. I want a fire fox fur collar. Granny Chensu commanded.

Banxiang let out a low "oh". Ran into the house.

Chen Su stepped forward, "Lady, the Empress Dowager in the palace wants you to enter the palace." ”

The sound is low. It's hard to hear clearly without listening carefully.

Fortunately, Su Qi has become accustomed to it, since he knew that there were many secret guards in our house, Chen Su and Chu Qing had taken care of a batch, and since then, everything is urgent, and the voice of Dusty Mother-in-law is like that of a mosquito, and Su Qi has to cheer up to hear it clearly.

With a "hiccup" in his heart, Su Qi took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's enter the palace immediately." ”

If you are afraid of something, then you should face it squarely.

She strode towards the courtyard gate.

Dusty Su hurriedly followed, and behind him was Ban Xiang trotting forward with a light cyan cloak with a fire fox fur collar, and the fiery red fur collar rippled in the wind, which was particularly conspicuous.

It's a pity that when I arrived in the palace, I heard that the Queen Mother went to the three princes of Xizhimen, and her old man had to return. It's just that before leaving, he left the shiitake mushrooms he collected that morning, and carefully wrote down the edible methods of the shiitake mushrooms and handed them to Mama Yu, and also stuffed a heavy amount of gold in the hands of the mama.

Mama Yu accepted it without changing her face, and personally sent Mrs. Su to the gate of the palace, and did not forget to say: "...... The Duchess of the Kingdom has a heart, and the old slave will definitely tell the Queen Mother well. ”

Mrs. Su left satisfied.

Qi Niang slept until three poles in the sun before getting up.

Although the palace is a wealthy family with deep roots, the rules of inviting An Wenli are not rigid and strict, not to mention that Qi Niang came to the house as a guest, and the Wang family did not dare to have any requirements in this regard. It's just that every day when the hour comes, Mama Wang, who is next to my grandmother, will come on time to invite, after all, it is not in my own house, and if I am too tired, I will inevitably fall into my mouth.

I can't imagine that no one will call me today.

After the girls and mothers-in-law served and freshened up, Qi Niang asked about Chen, "Why did you call me so late today, Chensu's mother-in-law knows, Qi Niang has always slept deeply, and she has no rules, and her mother-in-law still has to mention Qi Niang." ”

Chensu responded on the one hand, and explained: "Old Mrs. Su went out to see if the lady slept so soundly one day, so she instructed the lady not to be alarmed, because the slaves and maids did not wake the lady up on time." ”

Qi Niang thought about it, these days, since I knew the emperor's thoughts about himself, and the Xuanwu Yicheng guy designed to frame herself, she always slept uncomfortably at night, sometimes she was already asleep, but as long as she heard any slight sound, she would wake up, and then she couldn't sleep for a long time, and yesterday she looked in the mirror and found that the dark circles under her eyes were obvious, but she was frightened, thinking that if she went on like this, she would have to hide it from her grandmother. Grandmother, they asked Qi Ling to help get some soup to drink.

I slept well last night! Xu was frightened before, but Xu was later listened to his grandmother's words and wanted to open it himself, and he slept very well anyway!

After breakfast, Qi Niang was about to go to see Mrs. Wang, but she didn't want to be called by the housekeeper of the Wang family halfway, and she only said that the concubine in the palace was invited.

Qi Niang thought about it for a while, and then went down, but before going, she still went to Mrs. Wang's place, saluted and said goodbye, and then said: "I thought that I would come today to talk to my grandmother to relieve my boredom, and I didn't want Aunt Guifei to call Qi Niang into the palace immediately, and I don't know what the so-called matter, Qi Niang can only come back later to accompany my grandmother." ”

Old Madam Wang had already heard about the banquet of Mo Guifei and Mrs. Su yesterday, she didn't think much about it, seeing that her concubine's daughter could respect the Duchess of the Kingdom so much and love Qi Niang, how to see how happy she was, and hurriedly said: "Grandmother's body is good, since your aunt summoned you to come, you can go quickly, come back and call the girl in your house to say yes, don't bother to come over in person." ”

Qi Niang nodded, and then took Granny Chensu and Chu Qing to the palace with the eunuchs in the palace.

She knew that her grandmother went to the palace to find the Queen Mother, so she had nothing to be afraid of today!

I didn't want to go to the Molian Palace, but it was deserted, and I didn't see the two palace maids and eunuchs outside, Qi Niang followed the Xi Mama all the way to the main hall, only to see our aunt of the concubine with a big belly leaning on the woven gold soft couch of the phoenix wearing peony and pretending to sleep, and looked at her and just lazily said, "You are here, sit by yourself." Then he closed his eyes again and began to sleep.

Mama Xi poured tea for her and brought delicate snacks and seasonal melons and fruits to retreat, and did not forget to close the door of the temple tightly before leaving.

Qi Niang glanced at the hall that suddenly darkened, and then glanced at the concubine aunt who seemed to be sleeping very soundly, and threw the silk Yunjin Pa that she was holding in her hand to wipe her sweat aside, picked up the fragrant tea and poured it up, and at the end of the year, she grabbed a red peach and gnawed it like she was thirsty.

Can't blame her, it's really too hot this day, even if she sits in a sedan chair in the palace all the way, even if the sedan chair drivers walk in the shade all the way, but all the way down, Su Qishao has to sweat.

Mo Guifei said coldly, "You're not afraid of death, aren't you afraid that this palace will poison this tea?" ”

It's good that there's finally no beating around the bush!

Hearing this, Su Qi took another bite of the big peach, chewed it slowly for a while, and then said casually: "Auntie doesn't dare!" ”

It's not that you won't, but you don't dare!

Mo Guifei raised her eyebrows, immediately sat up straight, and said, "How do you know that this palace doesn't dare?" This palace wants to kill you, but it's a familiar way! ”

Qi Niang felt even more amused when she heard this, she looked at the woman in front of her with golden phoenix hairpins with a smile, and said, "It's a pity that my aunt didn't succeed once!" ”

Mo Guifei's face turned pale, and she said hatefully: "Then I can't let your little girl survive today!" ”

"No, Aunt Guifei is definitely not here to ask for Qi Niang's life today!" Su Qi finished biting the peach and threw the peach kernel away.

"Then what are you going to do when this palace summoned you today?" Mo Guifei was also curious, she heard the news from Mama Xi that Su Muli was clever in Cen Zhou, how to get the protection of her family, she just didn't believe it at the time, thinking that she was just a child who grew up in the countryside, or she was lucky to survive, how could this mind and insight be compared with her, a concubine who had struggled in the Dayue Palace for many years, so when Mama Xi reminded her to be cautious, she also laughed at Mama Xi "When you are old, you can't help but be afraid to do things...... but she didn't think about it, it was less than a month, this girl escaped death in the three assassinations of the Nanren faction, and now she will no longer look down on Su Muli so easily!

Su Qi peeled off the grape skin disappreliantly, and when he saw that he didn't look at Mo Guifei, he said, "Aunt Guifei is only afraid that she asked Qi Niang to negotiate the conditions!" (To be continued.) )
