Chapter 212: Shirk

Today's weather is slightly cold.

The sun was hot, but the wind was cool.

Chonghua sat in the pavilion, only to feel that his hands and feet were cold, even if it was a hot teacup, he couldn't feel warm.

Where the hell did the queen find out about this? Who knows from whom? Could it be a virtuous concubine? Or is it the princess of Tongjiang?

There was too much information for a while, and Chonghua began to feel that his brain was not enough.

The previous experience in Qingluan Palace told her that if the queen wanted to kill her, it would be easy.

In particular, this is a reasonable situation.

What to do? It's as if you have a fake academic qualification and are found out by the employer. It's not as simple as terminating the contract, and you may have to pay a lot of liquidated damages.

Chonghua lowered his head, his heart was in a mess. In this case, even Luo Chen couldn't meddle in this matter. The queen can claim that Luo Chen did not know anything about it, and all the fault was put on her.

What to do? What to do?

"She's not the daughter of the Ling family." Luo Chen said lightly.

The queen held the teacup in her hand, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. His eyes looked at Luo Chen coldly. But Luo Chen seemed to say the truth casually, and his expression was indifferent.

"Erchen doesn't know where the queen mother heard these rumors, and the Ling family is dead, so they can naturally talk about it. Chonghua is Mu Lao's great-granddaughter, shouldn't the queen mother suspect Mu Lao of bullying the king? Luo Chen smiled coldly.

The queen pinched the teacup, she did think so. Originally, it was enough for her son to protect this unknown woman everywhere, and she was angry. finally found out that this woman was the remnant of the Ling family, but her son insisted on protecting her obsessively. Not only that, but also moved out of the wood.

"Chen'er, the queen mother is talking to the concubine. Don't interject. The queen glared at Chonghua coldly.

Chonghua never raised his head.

She hadn't figured out how to explain it yet. If the queen and Luo Chen come to Xiaochun, they are the same people, and it would be good to reason with her. But right now, it's clear that she is pinching her pigtails to make a fuss.

With his heart settled, Chonghua raised his head and looked at the queen indifferently.

"What the queen mother is talking about, but the Ling family who once married the Tongjiang Palace?"

Chonghua's tone was too normal, which made the queen and Luo Chen stunned at the same time.

Didn't you say that this woman was the remnant of the Ling family? The Ling family is full of beheadings, she should be shaken. Could it be that he was so lonely that he didn't even care about family affection.

Chonghua's glass-bead-like eyes looked at the queen ruthlessly: "When the Ling family was executed, His Royal Highness took his concubines to see it. ”

The queen's hand shook and she almost didn't hold the cup. The shocked expression on his face was not hidden for a while, and he looked at Chonghua with wide eyes.

"The concubine is indeed not from the Ling family. If it was really the daughter of the Ling family, seeing her parents die tragically under the knife, I am afraid that she would not have the heart to continue living. Chonghua smiled indifferently.

Luo Chen twisted his eyebrows, she mentioned this, he did remember that on the day of the execution, he took Chonghua to watch. In the carriage that day, he only hugged her for the first time, and her tears were all over his shoulders.

But it wasn't tears from the death of a loved one.

"The concubine doesn't know where the queen mother heard about it, and she should have some concerns. After all, the concubine is not a noble girl who grew up in Beijing, and she is not considered to know the roots. ”

If it weren't for the fact that Chonghua didn't grow up in the capital, where would there be so much room for questioning. It is precisely because no one has seen her and no one knows her that it is convenient for people with hearts to make rumors.

The queen looked at Chonghua deeply. To be able to sit in the position of queen, she is not a dry meal. Contemplating the mind and mind is the foundation of the foundation.

Chonghua's expression was calm, and he was not shaken by such a sudden question. On the contrary, he defended himself without arrogance, and there was no hysteria or panic at all.

With such a heart, should she praise it?

Chonghua had already lowered his head and sat there in a proper manner and stopped talking. Sometimes it's not good to talk too much. Leave a little space for people to make up for themselves, and the credibility is higher.

When people lie, they all have expressions and actions that they can't hide. But if you don't know that you're lying, or if you believe you're telling the truth, your expressions and movements won't leak out.

Strictly speaking, Chonghua didn't lie, after all, she was indeed not the second lady of the Ling family. Even if more people came to torture her, she would not show half a waver.

The queen stared at Chonghua for a long time, and said lightly: "Xu is the palace heard it wrong." ”

Chonghua breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and being able to spit out means that the queen does not plan to continue to make a fuss about this matter. I just don't know if Luo Chen will bite and hold on.

Secretly glanced at Luo Chen, and sure enough, he saw that his face was not good.

Today is but a temptation, and there is no substantial evidence. The queen did not stay with them for long, and let them go after a few words.

It wasn't until the moment he walked out of the palace gate and got into the carriage that Chonghua's legs were weak and he fell on the cushion.

I couldn't stop breaking out in a cold sweat, and my heart was beating like thunder.

The feeling of dangling around the crocodile pond unscathed is truly exciting.

Luo Chen followed her into the carriage, and when he saw her fall on the cushion, he immediately lowered the curtain. made sure that he would not be seen, so he pulled Chonghua into his arms.

Chonghua's head was dizzy at this moment, and his hands and feet were very cold. Panting heavily, as if he would suffocate if he didn't breathe so hard.

Luo Chen frowned and tightened his arms.

"Let you be strong."

Chonghua smiled helplessly: "If you don't make it clear at this time, it's too late to say anything in the future." ”

Fortunately, the queen is not a person who drills the horns of the bull, if she calls Mu Lao to confront her, it will be a big trouble. After all, her identity was just a casual remark at the beginning, and Mu Lao knew that there was such a thing. But the details are not seamless. Once you investigate it carefully, it is full of holes. It doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

"Close your eyes and rest for a while, and when you get home, let Kikyo give you some wine to suppress the shock." Luo Chen pulled Chonghua into his arms, but his eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.

There is a kind of dare to go to the queen and stab him. I really should admire the courage of the whistleblower. If he could swallow this breath, he would eat the word Luo Chen raw.

Until he got home, Chonghua didn't wake up. Luo Chen didn't wake her up, and being able to fall asleep meant that she could recover. If you keep your eyes open, it's easy to have problems. Don't use anyone else, personally carry Chonghua to the warm pavilion. The maids who came up were taken aback.

"Prepare hot water and lay out the bedding." Luo Chen carried Chonghua to the beauty couch and asked Qingyuan Zimo to come over and wait for Chonghua to take off his clothes.

Over there, Zhuzhu and Kikyo went to prepare hot water and bathing things.

Luo Chen unbuttoned the collar of his clothes and ripped his hair open. Looking down at Chonghua who was sleeping deeply.

"Your Highness, the water is ready." When the Zhuzhu side was ready, he hurried over to report it.

"Okay, you don't have to come in without being told." Luo Chen walked over and hugged Chonghua and walked towards the clean room.

All the maids immediately understood Luo Chen's intentions, and they all withdrew with red faces.

A woman's clothes are definitely not as simple as they look. Especially the clothes worn when entering the palace are three layers inside and three layers outside. It's not as easy to put on and take off as home-style clothes. Zimo and the others have changed Chonghua's homely wide-sleeved long skirt. Luo Chen peeled Chonghua clean and threw it into the bucket. He tore off his clothes and soaked in.

The warm water gradually warmed Chonghua's cold body. Chonghua opened his eyes in a daze, and was taken aback to find that he was actually sitting in a bucket.

"Awake?" Luo Chen sat right behind her, and she was leaning against Luo Chen's tight chest.

Chonghua almost burst out of the bucket. I wiped it, why did I wake up and take a mandarin duck bath. As soon as he struggled, he hit the edge of the bucket, and his arm suddenly hurt.

"Be careful." Luo Chen snorted and complained.

Chonghua silently turned his face away. The picture was too beautiful for her to look at. Although I have seen a lot of scenes in reality, it is the first time that I have been forced to take a mandarin duck bath with a man like this.

So where are her eyes and hands going to be?

Luo Chen didn't care about that, and stretched out his hand to pull Chonghua over. Although she encountered Chonghua's active resistance halfway, her arms couldn't twist her thighs, and she was a weak woman who was Luo Chen's opponent. She was pulled over and hugged in her arms.

Chonghua only felt that his back was as hot as a fire. Luo Chen's body was like a hot iron plate. It almost burned her.

"You don't have to worry about the queen mother's side." Luo Chen whispered to her ear: "If there is solid evidence, the queen mother will not ask us to go in for questioning." ”

My own mother still knows it very well. Although the queen is graceful and magnificent, she is the most unforgiving in her temperament. If you take their handle, you will naturally not give them a chance to defend themselves. But today's situation is clearly a test of them. It's better that Chonghua is smarter, otherwise most of them will fall into the way.

Where does Chonghua still have the heart to think about the queen's problem at this time. Luo Chen's breath sprayed in her ears, and a tingling sensation spread from her ears to her brain. Chonghua's whole body stiffened, and he didn't dare to move when he sat in the bucket.

Luo Chen was wondering why Chonghua didn't react at all. The touch in his arms reminded him. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, Luo Chen lowered his head and rubbed on Chonghua's neck.

"What do you think?" The low-alcohol sound is like a supple chocolate, entwined with luxury.

Chonghua shook his head violently: "No, it's just a little hot." ”

Luo Chen pursed his lips and smiled, but his hand unhonestly slid down Chonghua's waist and onto her back. Suddenly, Chonghua trembled like a fish jumping out of the water.

I've never been in contact with a man so closely, where can I withstand such a big move. Chonghua decisively disarmed and surrendered, clinging tightly to Luo Chen's broad and tight shoulders, and buried his head in Luo Chen's neck and couldn't lift it.

Isn't this overt bullying? R1152
