Chapter 133: Lady Jing's Question
Putting away his smile, Ying Zheng regained his customary, expressionless expression.
"If you really say thank you, you should have a thank you gift." His tone seemed very strict, as if he were asking for my courtesy.
If he really wants my gift, what can I give that will catch his eye?
"Your Majesty?"
I don't know what Yingzheng means, but what I am most afraid of in my careful mind is that he suddenly asked me to give it to myself on a whim, because I seem to have nothing but Tian Tianxi.
Ying Zheng deliberately looked at the blue sky, muttered for a while, and showed me a clear way.
For me, it's really a clear way!
"On the shore of Qiaoyang Lake, let's play another song for the widow." After Ying Zheng finished speaking, his own smile was thick again.
Looks like he's teasing me again, making fun of my nervousness.
But I didn't soothe the depression in my heart.
Why does he use "again"? Could it be that he knew that my previous choreography of Qiaoyang Lake's "Forgetfulness" was to attract him?
Knowing it or not, I don't dare to ask this question, since the troubled brain power has made me think of this, I can only add it to my heart in vain, and I am bored and worried.
Ying Zheng said "again", wouldn't he deliberately say this to increase my psychological burden and watch me get entangled and enjoy myself, right? So what does he think of me as, his funny pet when he's idle?
But I'm a human being, although it is two thousand years later than the emergence of this era, I don't want to be a cute pet, even if the owner is the domineering Qin Yingzheng.
The elegant tone interrupted my ramblings.
"Mrs. Creek is so focused."
When I heard the sound and looked at it, I realized that I had focused all my attention on my head, and unconsciously stepped out of the fence of the jungle flowers and trees, and walked into the moon garden with low plants and a wide field of vision. Not far from where I stopped, Mrs. Jing was standing in the garden dignifiedly, looking at me with a smile.
I stepped forward and excused myself for not seeing her beforehand and for not taking the initiative to greet her.
"Mrs. Jing forgives her sins!"
I guess I'm really too idle and bored. I actually thought that Yingzheng's words could think of the point where I didn't even know where I was - I'm really crazy.
"Get up."
Mrs. Jing has always been charitable and will not hold a shelf that people can't afford to give, especially in spacious public places.
Thank you for Mrs. Jing's pardon. As soon as I stood up, Mrs. Jing whispered to me a straight question that I didn't know how to answer.
"You did that thing from the Cave Palace, right? Hongu remembers. When Mrs. Li woke up, you seemed to be as relaxed as a falling stone, and at that time, the palace felt that you had something to do with Mrs. Li's coma.
Now that the storm has arisen again, and Mrs. Zhongli and others have all pointed out that the murderer is you, if it were not for the king's assertion of this matter, you would have to accept strict inquiries.
Mrs. Jean is the person who is very close to you in this Qin Palace, and even she has a lot of complaints about you, and the head of this matter is you-they didn't wronged you, right? β
Mrs. Jing looked at me curiously. Her expectant eyes revealed that she was waiting for me to give her an affirmative answer.
I knew by heart a long time ago (the 21st century after 2,000 years of the Warring States period) that "those who believe in you don't need you to explain, and those who don't believe in you don't need to explain" by heart, to be honest, I don't really mind whether Mrs. Jing believes me or not. But she asked like this, I can't answer it in one bite, I did it.
Definitely not, if I explain it carefully, there will be a suspicion of strong words and blackening in her eyes, right?
Neither affirmation nor denial is appropriate, but if I say something like "whatever you think". Then I will come out of my mouth. If I really disrespect Mrs. Jing so brightly, I'll have to do something if I'm fine!
"They?" I thought I couldn't convince Mrs. Jing, so I had to find another way to avoid her interrogation: "Does Mrs. Jing mean Mrs. Li's recent grouping?" β
Since Mrs. Jing only brought the name of the inner supervisor with her to ask me questions, and she said it so explicitly, I have nothing to hide. It is possible to divert her attention by saying it sharply.
Mrs. Jing smiled, her eyes full of mockery.
"Why, Mrs. Creek is immersed in the scene and has insight into something that outsiders don't know? The palace also said that Mrs. Li's skills are clever, and the ladies below are skillfully covered up with a fair position, and no one notices it, but I never expected that there was a smart person, so you can guess a few points. β
Mrs. Jing's words revealed that she just thought that Mrs. Li was trying to win over Ji Juan and Zhong Li's understanding, but I didn't "guess a few points" as she thoughtβI wasn't alert to Mrs. Li trying to win over people, but I was very firm in my suspicion that they had plotted together and put me on the list of their enemies.
I didn't want to get involved in the struggle between Mrs. Jing and Mrs. Lee, even though I was already a struggling person in the whirlpool, so after reminding Mrs. Jing, I "explained" the reason for my remarks.
"Madame has praised the concubine. The slave concubine was stupid, and she was not very sure whether Mrs. Li had done this, but the slave concubine was suddenly accused of doing something she had not done, she was upset and aggrieved, and she was misunderstood by Mrs. Li and her husband before, so she spoke wildly, and hoped that Mrs. would have mercy. β
I mean, please have mercy on my anger, and don't tell me about their grouping.
Naturally, the other meaning of my words that was conveyed to Mrs. Jing and made her despise me was that I could say anything about the group, not to mention what I said.
Sometimes, when you show a layer of shallowness, others will believe in your shallowness and ignore your true face.
I don't know if Mrs. Jing is blocked by my shallowness, but she should still be tempted.
"You didn't do it? Butββ" Mrs. Jing walked towards me, paused one step at a time, raised her eyebrows and sneered, and said, "Why does this palace feel that it has nothing to do with you?" β
Compared with Ying Zheng's gaze, I smiled quite freely under Mrs. Jing's eyes, because Mrs. Jing's doubts were not so important to me, and this matter was not something I did.
Since she had determined that I was suspicious, and the basis of her suspicions, that my gaffe was true when Mrs. Lee woke up, what else could I say?
"Madame is going to ask the concubine of sin?" I asked directly.
I don't want to waste my energy with Mrs. Jing in vain, some things are too much, but there will be clues of some wrong prompts.
Mrs. Jing's face finally smiled.
"The king is reluctant, how can this palace disturb the king's interest. The palace just wants to know the inside story, this Qin palace is full of people, if there is any more wind and waves, it is good to understand that the source of the wind tip is not. β
Listen to this... If I admit that I did what Ji Wan was in a coma, then, does this mean that everything will come down to me in the future?
can't refute, and can't show weakness, so embarrassed, how can you solve your worries, and the only way to make a high-profile authoritative conclusion is again, right?
"The king is wise, and the concubine is grateful to her heart, and she does not dare to live up to this trust.
If they haven't done it, they haven't done it, Mrs. Li's identification that it was the slave concubine who did it, there must be a misunderstanding or other reasons, as for how they went through the process, the details of the slave concubine are unknown. β
When I said "other reasons", I don't know if Mrs. Jing will think more about the layer of "framing".
