Nangong left the palace and hung out with the emperor in the imperial garden, and soon the little eunuch reported to Kunning Palace.

Queen Xu was injured when she gave birth to the crown prince and Princess Hejing.

As long as it coincides with a rainy day, there will be endless soreness in the bone marrow of the body.

The whole person is powerlessly tight.

At the moment, she was lying on the chaise longue with all her strength, rubbing her temples with a frown.

There were also two little maidservants kneeling beside her, pinching her sore legs and feet.

But her brother had an accident yesterday, and she didn't sleep well all night, and she woke up this morning with endless haggard and tiredness.

And although she is a queen, she is well maintained.

But after all, she is old, and the years still leave fine lines on the corners of her eyes.

There was a person who looked not too old and walked in quickly, this is the eldest maid who has served the queen for half her life, named Aoba.

"Queen Mother, something happened."

The queen's eyes didn't open, but her brows tightened.

She only informed her mother's family yesterday that she must arrange someone to protect her brother in secret.

Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood.

As long as he can save his brother's life, everything will have a chance to turn around.

Not only that, but she secretly sent someone to solve everyone in the East Palace who was concerned about that matter.

I was so worried and busy at the same time that I didn't even have time to rest.

Hearing that something was wrong again, his tone was impatient: "What's wrong again?" ”

"Mother, it's a good thing...."

When Aoba said a good thing, his eyes glanced around.

This means that let these maids go out quickly, she has important things to return to.

The queen waved her hand casually, and those people who were unconscious like puppeteers retreated one after another.

"What's good?"

Aoba approached and whispered in her ear: "I heard that the person in front of the emperor came to report that the fourth prince entered the palace early this morning to see the emperor." ”

The queen's face was already not good, and when she heard this, she turned even more pale and ugly, and glanced at her: "What kind of good thing is this, he is holding the emperor and plucking the emperor to check the poisonous scorpion." ”

She knew that the scorpion was what her good son did.

But now she has put her heart in her stomach, after all, there is no human and material evidence, even if the four princes don't let go of it to investigate, they can't find any useful information.

"Yes, but don't worry, the queen mother, the exact news, these four princes begged the emperor to check from the general's mansion."

"From the General's Mansion?"

The queen's voice suddenly rose a few points, as if she couldn't believe it.

If the emperor wants to check the general's mansion, isn't that the internal contradiction between the two monarchs and ministers?

Seems to have figured this out.

Queen Yile, her eyebrows stretched: "What you said is true?" ”

"Naturally, it's true, the emperor was forced by the four princes to have no choice, maybe he really wants to check the general's mansion."

Oops, what a surprise.

The queen's whole person came to her senses again, and hurriedly said: "Go, hurry up and inquire in front of the Heart Cultivation Palace, if this is true, hurry up and tell Xun'er, so that he can breathe a sigh of relief." ”

Aoba is not as open as the queen thinks.

If it is found out from the mouths of the general's subordinates that the matter is related to the prince, wouldn't it be troublesome?

"Empress, if it is found out that it is someone from the East Palace who is in harmony with the general's mansion, won't the prince still be in trouble?"

Hearing Aoba's worried words, a vicious light flashed in the queen's eyes.

"Hmph, the emperor ordered to check the General's Mansion, and the matter only needs to come to this point. Do you think, General Mu has been loyal and loyal all his life, and the emperor doesn't trust him because of such a trivial matter, isn't this the best opportunity for us to win over General Mu? ”

"Yes, yes, the queen is right, the old slave is confused."

Because of such an incident, the queen's heart was temporarily relieved.

When he picked up the tea in his hand and was about to take two sips, he asked as if he remembered something: "By the way, didn't you come to Xun'er last time to go out to the lake with the concubine of the general's mansion, what is Ting?" ”

"Yes, Queen, that was a year ago."

"Well, Xun'er hasn't been in the palace recently, and I don't know what I'm busy with, and I don't come to tell Eniang if I like that person, if I like it, I should prepare early, lest the concubine be matched with someone else."

As he spoke, there was a hint of resentment in the man's tone.

In fact, it's not that Nangong Xun doesn't want to enter the palace, it's just that the skin injury on his body hasn't healed yet, and Nangong Xun has no face to go out.

She was thinking in her mind, taking advantage of the emperor's suspicion of this gap in the General's Mansion, and letting Xun'er marry the daughter of the General's Mansion, she was not afraid that the General's Mansion would not be attached to them.

Oops.

The abacus in the queen's mind crackled.

didn't realize that their mother and daughter had fallen into the trap set by Nangong Li all of a sudden.

It was already afternoon after Nangong left the palace and returned to the palace.

He had lunch with the emperor in the palace before returning to the palace.

The carriage swayed to a halt in front of the gate of the palace.

"Where's the princess?"

Nangong Li casually untied his cloak, put it on the butler's hand, looked in the direction of Fengluan Palace, and then asked him.

"The princess has locked herself in her room all morning, and she hasn't come out yet."

Nangong Li frowned slightly, what was the person doing in the room?

Or is this person a golden cicada who has broken out of its shell and left?

After thinking about it, Nangong Li felt that it was wrong, this woman could obviously go out generously.

Thinking about it, Nangong walked quickly towards Fengluan Palace.

Mu Xue was lying on the table and carefully sketching the distribution map of the first floor of the Jinlong Silver Village, how many counters should be set up, and how to set up the counters.

I also thought about how to write a slogan to attract more eyeballs.

I didn't feel very satisfied with the writing and painting all morning, and the crumpled paper was thrown all over the ground.

The door was hidden, and when he pushed the door in, Nangong Li felt that there was no place in the room where he could put his feet.

He bent down, picked up a piece of paper and glanced at it casually, and then looked at Mu Xue over there interestingly.

"What's wrong? Got a problem? ”

Mu Xue was only concentrating on the drawings in her hand, and she didn't notice that someone was coming in front of her.

He opened his mouth coldly, and Mu Xue looked up suddenly.

"You're back...."

As if a little happy, the woman quickly put down the wolf pen in her hand and ran towards him.

She stopped in front of him, about to say something, but the man's arm grabbed her waist and led her into his arms.

"What's so happy?"

"Mu Bai has sent silver to the house today!!"

Mu Xue's eyes lit up, and it seemed that just by mentioning the word silver, Mu Xue was already very excited.

Nangong Li nodded, it was indeed time to give silver.

"How many were sent?"

"After deducting the 8,000 taels that bought the floor, a total of 13,000 was raised."

Speaking of this, Mu Xue licked her lips uneasily, as if she had something to say but was embarrassed to speak.

This man was meticulously observant, and when he saw her with such an expression, he knew that she had words hidden in her heart.

"Say whatever you want."

He put his arm around her waist and sat down on the Taishi chair over there, and then pulled Mu Xue to sit down on his lap.

While holding the things she had been busy with all morning, she let her have something to say.

"That, Fei Qi told me today that in the past, Mu Bai brought the silver over to enter the small treasury of the Funeral Palace, but today, I..."

Nangong Li looked at her suspiciously, and asked her with great certainty: "Didn't you blacken me with ten thousand three, right?" ”

Although it was an interrogation.

But the meaning is yes, there is no doubt about it.

Almost without waiting for this woman's answer, Nangong Li knew the answer from her embarrassed expression.

Has this woman been poor and crazy lately?

The woman had taken all the money in his storehouse.

As if someone had pierced it all of a sudden, a rare flush appeared on Mu Xue's pretty face.

was very embarrassed to coquettish him: "Lord, look at what you said, how can this matter between husband and wife be called black, isn't this a good life for you..."

The man's face was full of suspicion, and he looked at Mu Xue with great disdain.

Seeing Mu Xue's eyes shining, there was a sweet smile on her face.

Nangong Li couldn't bear to break the thirst in this person's eyes.

That's it, that's it.

Isn't it just silver?

Just give it to her.

In this way, Nangong waved his big hand, but he was generous: "That's it, you can take this silver." ”

I'll it.

Mu Xue thought that this man was going to refuse.

She still has other arguments in her head, and she plans to sell miserably.

"Thank you, Lord Wang!!"

Mu Xue was happy in her heart, dropped a thank you to the prince, and then got off his lap.

Nangong tightened her arms and pulled her back, who was about to escape, and even pressed her waist with both hands to make her fit her body more deeply.

In this posture, Mu Xue was hugged by him.

She tilted her head slightly, and her sensitive ears touched his thin hot lips.

As if she had been burned by the flames, Mu Xue's face suddenly turned red, and her body was scared.

He whispered in her ear, "What are you running, this king has not finished speaking?" ”

"Yes, you say, Lord Wang."

Nangong Li's interest was also good, his fingers hooked a strand of her black hair and swirled, and his thin lips kissed her slender neck.

Under this action, the cold mask on his face rubbed against Mu Xue's flesh and skin.

Extremely cold.

But his lips were hot.

Between the cold and the heat, Mu Xue's body rose with an uncontrollable comfort.

The big palm lightly peeled off the shirt on her neckline, and the man asked her vaguely: "In the past half a day, have you missed this king?" ”

As soon as he spoke, Mu Xue frowned.

She thought he should at least ask what she was doing with him for so much money, and she even thought of an excuse.

But she really didn't think that he just asked if she missed him.

"Why don't you answer?"

Mu Xue didn't answer after a slight delay, so the man asked again.
