"Bengong naturally knows that yesterday's incident has nothing to do with my sister, it's just that the traitor villain is making trouble and wants to make Bengong and my sister grudge against each other, and Bengong knows it." After Lily finished speaking, she smiled slightly, Concubine Xian stared at her in a daze, but saw that she was elegant and gentle when she smiled, and there was no trace of hideous and terrible on her face, but that look made her feel cold, and she was about to speak, but the aunt in the Queen Mother's palace had already found out that the two had arrived and came out to greet her.

Originally, I thought that I and Concubine Xian were already early enough, but what surprised Lily was that when she came to the palace of Empress Dowager Lu, Emperor Yongming was also here.

The Fengming Hall where the Empress Dowager Lu is located is the place of the queen of the world in the harem, very dignified and magnificent, when the lily came, the Empress Dowager Lu was already dressed, and was talking to Emperor Yongming, when the lily and the virtuous concubine came in, the Empress Dowager Lu's eyes paused first, and then the corners of her mouth were gently pursed, restoring her gentle and dignified appearance.

She is only seventeen this year, but she is already a figure of the 'grandmother' generation, because of the new widow, Empress Dowager Lu's clothes are mainly blue and black and other old-fashioned plain colors, and the jewelry cannot be worn publicly, she is wearing a set of emerald jewelry that is extremely inconsistent with her age, wearing a cyan velvet jacket, sitting in the seat at this time, her back is straight. Although the smile on her face is very restrained, because of Empress Dowager Lu's gorgeous appearance and charming temperament, these old and heavy outfits can't suppress her at all, but the cyan body shows her skin white and jade, and there is still a little girlish style between a smile and a smile, and those eyes are like cats, even if she is a woman, she has to be charmed.

"The concubine is here, and the mourning family has already asked Soho to go down. Can the concubine rest in the Xianfu Palace for a few days? ”

At this time, Empress Dowager Lu had a look of pity and worry on her face, she first asked Lily with concern, and then raised her eyelids: "What you don't have the ability to see, the concubine is here, so don't wait soon." As soon as she said this, the people in the Fengming Hall seemed to come back to their senses, and Su Ho, the big palace person next to her, hurriedly stepped forward to take off the silver crane feather worn by Lily, Su Ho's expression was worried and respectful, but he didn't see the slightest weakness and fear, if it wasn't for the fact that he got some news from Zhen's mouth yesterday. I'm afraid that at this time Lily looks at Soho like this. I have to think that it has nothing to do with her.

The queen mother is very eager for Lily in her mouth at this time, it is clear that Concubine Guo came in with her, but she is lukewarm to Concubine Xian in front of the emperor, if Concubine Xian is stupid. I'm afraid that this alone will have to hate and guard against Lily.

Lily hooked the corners of her mouth. first greeted Empress Dowager Lu and Emperor Yongming. When Soho came to fetch the big pot for her, Soho's hand was reaching for her chest to pull the satin knot, and she suddenly reached out and grabbed Soho's palm! The long nails dug into the flesh of Soho. Even though Su Hodang almost screamed in pain, her expression froze, and she looked up at Lily, but Lily ignored her, but smiled and said to Emperor Yongming:

"The emperor has a lot of opportunities, but today is a coincidence, and he actually saw the emperor in the queen mother's palace." Emperor Yongming was wearing the bright yellow emperor's court clothes, obviously retired early from the early dynasty, the young emperor was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, even if there was no interaction between Emperor Yongming and Empress Dowager Lu when Lily came in, but a doubt still came out of Lily's heart.

Liang Mubei died unexpectedly yesterday, but the emperor was busy with official business, only came to take a quick look at him, and then left, if it is seen by others, I am afraid that only Emperor Yongming is sad, thinking that he just dare not face Liang Mubei's death, but Zhou Baihe has been married to Liang He for several years, loves him deeply, and knows more about him than about himself.

Emperor Yongming was taught very well by the first emperor, even if he had many concubines in the harem after adulthood, and all of them were stunning, he could always treat them equally, whether it was elegant and beautiful like Zhou Lily, or the glamorous concubine Guo, or the heroic Concubine Gao, none of them could make Liang He alone, but the rain and dew had been evenly divided, which shows Liang He's restraint and how indifferent his heart is.

When Liang Mubei was born, Liang He was even the most relieved that he had a successor, if the prince's marriage was delayed, it was inevitable that the important ministers of the court could not rest assured, he was not happy that he was a father when his son was born, but only then was he happy that he was seated firmly as the prince. Such a ruthless and unrighteous man, his son did not guard when he died, but only came once, and the rest of the aftermath was handled by the palace people, and early this morning, he came to ask the Empress Dowager Lu for peace, which really had to make Lily suspicious.

He wore a golden crown on his head, a huge pearl in the middle, two bright yellow bands passed behind his ears, two knots were tied at the chin, and the tassels were interspersed with beads, a handsome face was full of the majesty and indifference of the emperor at this time, and the big horse golden knife sat in the position, listening to Lily's words, Liang He's brows wrinkled imperceptibly, and the pair of slender eyes looked at Lily, and his gaze was a little sharp: "I went down to the early dynasty, naturally I want to come to ask for peace, don't you have to wait until the sun is three poles before coming?" ”

"The emperor is a strange concubine who came late?" His voice was cold, as if he did not have the slightest emotion, but Lily smiled, stretched out his hand and grabbed Soho tighter, the concubines in the palace had nothing to do, and they all had the habit of growing nails, the original owner's nails were an inch long, and they were wiped with impatiens juice, and the juice was full and red.

Although she is a big palace maid next to the Queen Mother, she is not an ordinary subordinate, she is the palace official next to the Queen Mother, and she is also a high-grade palace person, from the time the Empress Dowager Lu entered the palace, she was the person who held the phoenix seal for her, and won the trust of the Empress Dowager Lu.

But even if she tried her best to endure it, her face was still a little pale, but in front of her master, when Lily and the emperor were talking again, there was no room for her to speak, so she endured the pain.

The original owner lost his son, even if it was indeed because she didn't take good care of her, Liang Mubei drowned, but no one was more uncomfortable than her in the pain of losing her son, and Emperor Yongming didn't appease him yesterday. didn't mention a word about a thorough investigation of the murderer, but yesterday he sent someone to reprimand her and gave her a title. Today, I came to ask for peace, and I faintly blamed myself for coming too late, Lily sneered in her heart, the original owner has love for Emperor Yongming, and after giving birth to an heir, he has a desire for his son to inherit the Northern Qi Dynasty in the future, plus the sake of his mother's family, and the original owner has received a lesson since childhood, the idea that the monarch is greater than the sky. Therefore, for Emperor Yongming, he respects and loves.

Even if she calculates the other women in the harem. But in front of Emperor Yongming, she didn't dare to calculate at all, she only hated to be favored by him. Since marrying into the royal family, she has been looking forward to the arrival of Emperor Yongming. I have been looking forward to it since I married into the East Palace. Later, after giving birth to a son, my heart gradually became cold. She has just turned eighteen, but she feels that she is waiting for her old age, and there has been no shortage of beauties in the palace since ancient times. Especially the emperor who was rich in the world.

But now Lily is not afraid, she has no intention of the original owner's love for Emperor Yongming, and she is afraid of her son, but now her son has died at the hands of others, and the Zhou family will always be eradicated by the emperor in the end, even if she is low and small, the emperor may not be able to tolerate it. Although Bai He was not prepared to completely anger Emperor Yongming before she had no ability to protect herself, so as not to cause trouble for herself, she was not prepared to pretend to be generous everywhere like the original owner.

"It's just that the emperor came too early, it's not that the concubines came too late." She didn't wait for Emperor Yongming to speak, so she took the words by herself, and then her eyes rolled: "Yesterday, because the Mubei incident happened too hastily, the concubines didn't have time to see the emperor, and they originally wanted to ask the queen mother for peace and then ask the emperor to uphold justice, but now that she has met the emperor, she has saved the concubines from going one more trip." ”

When Baihe mentioned Liang He, Soho's body that was dragged by her stiffened slightly, she noticed it, but as if she didn't feel it, her eyes turned red slightly:

"The concubine has only such a son, but now she has been assassinated, and she begged the emperor to be the master, find the real murderer who killed Mubei, and the concubine wants to let her," Lily said this, paused, and first looked at the Empress Dowager Lu, but saw that her apricot eyes showed a little sympathy and discomfort, and her eyes were sparkling, as if she was also sad for Liang Mubei's death, she hooked the corners of her mouth, and finally fixed her eyes on Soho: "It's not a good death!" ”

Soho shivered excitedly, and his face was buried down, and his chin seemed to be poked in his chest.

Emperor Yongming didn't speak for a while, but Empress Dowager Lu sighed: "The mourning family knows that the concubine is in pain, and the emperor came over today to ask about it, this matter is all done by an unobtrusive servant in the mourning palace, the mourning family has ordered someone to beat him to death, but he is pitiful for Mubei's life, but he has not come back." As soon as Empress Dowager Lu's voice fell, Lily sneered in her heart, the eunuch killed by Empress Dowager Lu didn't know which palace's eyeliner, she was ruthless, not only made people substitute for the dead ghost, but also removed a thorn in the eye, and also eliminated Liang Mubei, but it was really killing two birds with one stone.

On the surface, this matter was that the eunuch took care of Liang Mubei improperly, and was ordered by the Empress Dowager Lu to be beaten to death as a substitute ghost, but it has been spread behind the scenes, this matter was done by the virtuous concubine, if the eunuch was really killed, the matter was conclusive, and I am afraid that the hat I was detained would be difficult to wash off for the rest of my life. Concubine Xian's pretty face was blue and white, and she was about to speak, but Liang He snorted coldly:

"If it weren't for your own improper care, how would Mu Bei run into the Imperial Garden? Now that something happened, I didn't know the consequences of investigating the matter, what did I do earlier? ”

The Son of Heaven was furious, and everyone in the Fengming Hall knelt down except for the Empress Dowager Lu. Lily endured the disgust in her heart, "The emperor has taught him a lesson, but now that the matter has happened, if the real culprit behind the scenes is not found, the concubine Mubei's spirit in the sky will not rest in peace, and I ask the emperor to be the master!" ”

"What more do you want?" Emperor Yongming's eyebrows raised, his expression was a little impatient, and Lily didn't care how happy he was: "Yesterday, the concubine had already interrogated the nurse who took care of Mu Bei, and she said that Mu Bei was clamoring to see the Queen Mother yesterday, so she took Mu Bei to the Fengming Palace." Lily spoke slowly, and when Empress Dowager Lu heard this, she also nodded: "That's true." "It is not a secret that Liang Mubei went to Fengming Hall yesterday, I don't know how many people in the palace are staring, even if Empress Dowager Lu doesn't want to admit it, it is impossible, after she said this, she asked again: "Could it be that the concubine thinks that the mourning family has harmed Mubei?" ”

Empress Dowager Lu has a very advantageous identity, as long as she does not commit a major crime against the norm, she will enjoy the glory and wealth in this life, not to mention that Lily is just a concubine now. Even if she is a queen, she still has to bow down in front of her, otherwise an unfilial hat will be taken down. She took the initiative to say this at this time, even if Lily knew that Empress Dowager Lu had nothing to do with this matter, she still denied it:

"The concubine doesn't dare." What she said didn't dare, but not not, Empress Dowager Lu's eyelids drooped, and her petite and delicate figure was wrapped in the old-fashioned and heavy palace clothes, and before she could speak, Lily continued:

Zhen once said. Mu Bei is close to the Queen Mother. It's a pity that the queen mother is busy, and she ordered Aunt Su to wait, as for why the concubine Mubei finally ran to the imperial garden, Aunt Suhe is also to blame. ”

Start when Lily speaks. Empress Dowager Lu originally thought that she was going to target herself. Unexpectedly, at this time, Lily mentioned Zhen. didn't mention what Zhen had said between himself at all, but instead pulled the topic to Soho. Empress Dowager Lu was stunned for a moment, and the corners of her mouth pursed slightly. At this time, Soho, who was holding Lily's hand, heard this, and his face turned pale, but he didn't speak.

At this time, she was involved in the murder of the eldest prince, but she was calm and loyal to the Empress Dowager Lu, and she didn't open her mouth to cry out at this time, obviously knowing that the Empress Dowager Lu would not watch her die.

Lily hooked the corners of her mouth, she never thought that Suho would die so easily, but even if Soho was a capital crime, it was impossible to escape the living crime.

"Aunt Soho didn't take Mu Bei seriously, so he strayed into the imperial garden, if there was nothing to do, now Mu Bei went at such a young age, but the concubine seemed to have a needle prick in her heart, and asked the emperor to be the master." As Lily spoke, the tears poured out, Liang He's brows furrowed, and before he could speak, Empress Dowager Lu had already spoken: "This matter was not done by Soho, and it ......" Soho is the right hand of Empress Dowager Lu, loyal to her, at this time Empress Dowager Lu naturally wants to protect her, but before Empress Dowager Lu finished speaking, Lily interrupted her words:

"Could it be that in the heart of the Queen Mother, the royal blood is not as important as a slave? Although this matter was not done by Soho, but it was also due to her, the concubine's Mubei was gone, and none of the concubines would let go if they didn't protect him! The more Lily spoke, the louder her voice became, as if she was very excited, Empress Dowager Lu snorted, sat up straight, slapped her jade hand on the arm of the chair, and said coldly: "The concubine is excited." ”

"Mubei is the lifeblood of the concubine, now that someone is ripping the heart of the concubine, how can the concubine still bear it? Even if Soho is not a crime that causes death, it is a fact that she takes care of Mu Bei inconsiderately, and she also asks the emperor to send it and allow the concubine to investigate this matter thoroughly. "The prince of Northern Qi is inexplicably gone, not to mention that Lily is Liang Mubei's mother, it is common to ask for a thorough investigation, even Liang He in the court should also have an explanation, now he has ascended the throne as the emperor, there was originally a son here, and everyone in the palace was not in a hurry, but now that Liang Mubei is dead, Liang He has no successor, and the old ministers in the court naturally began to worry.

Although Soho is a first-class female official next to the Empress Dowager Lu, if it is an ordinary matter, Emperor Yongming should give the Empress Dowager a face, and this matter has passed, but since the matter has been related to the royal bloodline, Lily is unwilling to give up, plus she did not want Soho's life, nor did she accuse her of being the murderer of Liang Mubei, but only said that she was derelict and wanted to make her suffer, so although Emperor Yongming was dissatisfied with Lily being so aggressive, he still nodded and allowed:

"I'll leave this matter to you."

"Your Majesty." When Empress Dowager Lu heard this, she couldn't help but be a little anxious, opened her mouth and called Emperor Yongming, and Emperor Yongming glanced at her: "I will order Shangxi to follow you for your errands, once there is any result, it will be reported to me to know." ”

Emperor Yongming ostensibly agreed to let the lily cooperate with the master, but in fact Shang Xi is the father-in-law who is close to the emperor, he sent Shang Xi to follow Lily, saying that it is for her to run errands, and to put it mildly, it is to spy on Lily, but for the mastermind behind the scenes, Lily has already counted in his heart, and this time to move Soho, it is just a disguise, she is not ready to really investigate at this time, Emperor Yongming is an emperor with a strong desire to control, and the whole emperor is under his nose, if it is him' If he wants to know, he will know in less than half an hour, and if he doesn't want to know, he may not be able to find out the truth even if he breaks the sky.

Lily replied yes, and then reached out to let go of Soho, and as soon as Soho was let go by her, she knelt on the ground softly, with a pale face, but quietly lowered her head.

After saying this, Emperor Yongming was obviously annoyed to see the woman crying, and got up and left.

When the emperor's bright yellow dragon robe left under his nose, he felt that the unique dragon fragrance on Emperor Yongming's body had gradually faded away, and Lily got up at this time, and there was no longer any sadness and discomfort when facing the emperor before: "The concubine is worried about the affairs of Mubei, so she will not disturb the queen mother, thank the queen mother for her compassion, allow the concubine to recuperate for a period of time and then come to ask for peace, and when the concubine's heart is calm, come to the queen mother to ask for sin." After she finished speaking, without waiting for Empress Dowager Lu to react, she frowned: "Don't pull Aunt Soho away yet!" ”

In front of Emperor Yongming before, she had already said that she would make Soho suffer some hardships, and this matter had already passed the clear road, at this time, when Empress Dowager Lu heard her say this, she was furious in her heart, but a smile appeared on her face:

"The concubine should be more careful, the mourning family is used to waiting in Soho." Although her voice was subtle and soft, her eyes were narrowed, and her eyes showed an unhappy look, Lily pressed her eyes with a handkerchief, and responded softly: "The Queen Mother can rest assured that Aunt Soho will keep all her hands and feet, and it will be done if she can't miss the matter of waiting for the Queen Mother." After she finished speaking in a soft tone, she turned her head and her eyebrows were like blades, and she ordered the eunuch behind her: "Don't take my aunt away yet!" ”

Her attitude was so angry that Empress Dowager Lu's hands trembled, her face became gloomy, and she didn't give Lily a face: "The mourning family is tired, you guys go back." After speaking, Empress Dowager Lu got up and entered the inner hall, and as soon as Lily waited for her to leave, her eyes fell on Soho, and she trembled all over.

Although the mastermind behind Liang Mubei's death this time is very likely to be the Empress Dowager Lu, but this Suho is also indispensable, at this time Lily asked about the crime, although Soho said that she picked up a life, but the Empress Dowager Lu couldn't save her all, she was not taken away by Lily, but was beaten ten times with a cane without taking off her pants, or in front of Fengming Palace. In the past, Soho was a first-class female official next to the Queen Mother, and everyone in and out respectfully called her aunt, what a majesty, but at this time, she was also stripped naked and spanked in public, although Lily did not mean to kill her, so she did not make a fuss on the board when she was beaten with a cane, but for Soho, the humiliation of being beaten with a cane took off her pants was far more than the pain in her body, and she began to endure not to scream, until Lily had walked out of the Fengming Palace, The dull sound of the board hitting the flesh was still there.

"Sister really doesn't blame me?" Concubine Xian came out of Fengming Hall with Lily, Soho was beaten, which was indirectly equivalent to Empress Dowager Lu being slapped in the face, she didn't mean to see Concubine De and others today, Concubine Xian naturally retreated, chased her out and followed Lily, she obviously couldn't believe that Lily really didn't embarrass her, and chased her over and asked.

Lily glanced at her with a smile, and her eyes swept over the palace people waiting behind her, and she didn't speak, but snorted coldly, lifted her skirt and left.

"Niangniang, the concubine is too much!" Seeing such a situation, An Xue, the big palace maid beside Concubine Xian, couldn't help but stomp her feet, and said angrily, An Ru also nodded on the side, Concubine Xian's face was cloudy, she bit her lip, glared at the two of them, and also stomped her feet and turned around hatefully and went back to the Pujia Hall where she was.

"Does Niangniang really think that this matter has nothing to do with Concubine Xian?" In the Xianfu Palace, the painting and poetry knelt in front of the lily, carefully took the things wrapped in the fingernails for her, and the poetry said that the impatiens bloomed before falling asleep last night, and this time the flowers were still very bright, and the color was also positive, and the lily seemed to be deeply hit by the death of Liang Mubei recently, so the poetry volunteered to dye her nails, and the lily was tossed by them.

Yesterday, the people of Xianfu Palace picked fresh impatiens, pounded out the juice, mixed it with alum, dipped it in a cloth and wrapped it on her fingertips, wrapped it for four or five hours, and now when it was opened, the flower juice had been dyed with color, and the ten green nails were peach-colored, and there were also beside the nails.
