An Su bowed her head in fear: "Queen Mother, the slave maid has nothing else to ask for, but to be able to serve by the Queen Mother's side." ”

Thinking about the queen mother, there are many ears and eyes, although the palace maid is far away from Changle Palace, the queen mother also knows about it, and she can guess that it was An Su who did it in one fell swoop, which is not unintelligent. An Su is smart, but after all, he is young and has not experienced anything, if he compares with the Queen Mother, he will definitely not get any benefits.

"What are you panicking about, the mourning family just wants to hear what you have in your heart, the people who come to this Changle Palace, the mourning family can't know anything about her!" The Queen Mother regained her loving appearance and personally helped An Su up.

"What the slave and maid say is what they say in their hearts, if you really want to say that you still have your own thoughts, it is that the slave and maid don't want to go to Yongxiang."

"Very well, Songhe, give her a seat." The Queen Mother patted An Su on the shoulder, and then returned to the main seat and sat down. The tea served earlier was still hot, and the Queen Mother took a sip and asked Songhe to present a cup to Ansu.

An Su didn't know what the Queen Mother meant, she was really flattered, and she had to be given a seat by the Queen Mother herself, which was a treatment that ordinary concubines could not enjoy. She didn't know how to deal with it, so she could only do as the Queen Mother instructed, and sat down on the chair, but she didn't dare to take a sip of the tea, so she only brought it to her front and sniffed it.

Later, the Queen Mother didn't speak, and An Su didn't say anything, just looked at Songhe quietly, but Songhe didn't look at her. The dormitory was quiet for a while, so quiet that An Su could hear the sound of the breeze outside hitting the window, and her heart became more and more chaotic, and the silence in front of her seemed to be the calm before the storm.

"Is it comfortable to sit?" The Queen Mother finally raised her head and asked.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the slave and maid are like sitting on pins and needles." Ansu replied truthfully.

"Oh? Why is that? The Queen Mother asked knowingly.

"The slave maid is just an ordinary palace maid in Changle Palace, she is not qualified enough, and she is not a master, so according to the rules, she should not sit down in front of the Queen Mother." An Su lowered her head, "But the queen mother gave the seat, and the slave and maid had to sit, and the two sides were contradictory, so it was like sitting on pins and needles." ”

"You're an honest girl." The Queen Mother laughed again, "Do you know why the mourning family wants to give you a seat and tea?" ”

"The slave is stupid, and I really can't understand the queen mother's intentions."

"Those who are qualified to sit in front of the mourning family, in addition to the emperor, and those respected ministers, can only be the queen." The Queen Mother restrained her smile, "The mourning family heard that when you went to the palace, you were looked down upon by the emperor. The emperor wants to give you a title after the training in the palace is over, but you come to the mourning house, why is this? ”

It was not surprising for An Su that the Queen Mother knew about this, and the Queen Mother had heard about Jiang Qingran, so she could know that her old man was well-informed, so how could she not know the news that spread throughout the harem?

"The emperor is the lord of the world, extremely noble, and the slaves and maids are humble, and they are not worthy of being the masters of the palace, so they invited themselves to serve the queen mother in Changle Palace." An Su knew that the Queen Mother was thoughtful and must know her intentions, but if she said it directly, she would not give the emperor a son, and she would only depreciate herself.

"You really don't want to be the master? If you like the emperor, you don't have to look at people's faces every day, and with your means, it is possible to climb to the back one day. The Queen Mother pointed to the chair, "When you come to see the mourning family in the future, you can sit upright, and you don't have to kneel down and reply." ”

"Queen Mother, the slave maid sat on that chair just now, worried and panicked. Just sit for a while, if you want to do it for the rest of your life, won't there be no peace forever. An Su knelt down and made a big salute, "I hope that the Queen Mother will have mercy on the slaves." ”

The Queen Mother took another sip of Fang Cai's teacup, the hot tea in it had completely cooled, and a long time had passed. The Queen Mother pretended to glance at the sky outside, and said: "Okay, the mourning family knows that you are a smart girl, and you are also beautiful, and the emperor will definitely like it when he sees it." But if you don't want to, the mourning family can't force you, come here, stay in Changle Palace and wait! ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." An Sufu kowtowed, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After An Su retreated, Songhe slowly walked to the Queen Mother's side: "Queen Mother, the time is almost up, Yuxian's side should be finished." ”

"The mourning family knows that the time for a cup of hot tea is enough for him to get things done." The Queen Mother put the cold tea aside, "Shangguan Ansu, this girl, can be used, but her temperament still has to be sharpened." I don't know how she will deal with this matter after she goes back and finds out, but the mourning family is very curious. ”

When the Queen Mother and Songhe were talking about Ansu, she had already walked back to her room. Although I was worried about Zhou Meihong's injury, I was already frightened by the Queen Mother, which was much more endurable than the suffering of flesh and skin. An Su was really tired and panicked, so she thought about going to see her again tomorrow.

But when he walked to the door and was about to open the door, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing outside Zhou Meihong's room a little farther away. The black shadow flashed extremely fast, almost only for a moment, if it wasn't An Su's illusion, that person must have done some kung fu. An Su stood at the door for a while, still relieved, and still bracketed her body to take a look at Zhou Meihong's room.

When I got there, I saw that the door was wide open, and the moonlight was dim tonight, and the room was even darker, and I couldn't see anything at all. Ansu had only been here once, touching the direction of the candlestick in his memory, and stumbling into several things. This was strange, and when she saw that although the house was dilapidated, the floor would not be in such a mess, and she had an ominous premonition in her heart.

After several twists and turns, An Su finally lit the candle, and the dark room instantly lit up. An Su looked forward by the light of the candle flame, there were all kinds of items scattered on the ground, several decorative vases were smashed and smashed, and Zhou Meihong was lying next to those vase fragments.

Ansu hurriedly ran over to help her up, she had been whipped before, so it was not okay to lie on the ground like this, in case she caught a cold, the injuries on her body would not heal for a while.

But as soon as Zhou Meihong turned over, she saw a dagger pierced in her chest, the dagger was pierced very deeply, and a large pool of blood had been left, which looked very terrifying under the flickering of the candlelight.

An Su had seen Zili kill the Zhao maternity in Shenshui Pavilion, and the knife in his hand was very sharp, but that time he was just watching, and the Zhao maternity was also a wicked person, even if he was afraid, it was not too much. This time, she really supported Zhou Meihong, An Su trembled and reached out to try her snort, and sure enough, she didn't breathe at all.

Ansu sorted out his thoughts, and at this time, it was better to call some people to deal with it. She stood up, let Zhou Meihong lie down, and then turned around to call someone. But as soon as she turned around, she was met by a stick, and An Su took a blow and fell straight down. Before she lost consciousness, she caught a glimpse of the man who had attacked her, with an agate-red jade plaque tied around his waist.

The next day, Ansu was woken up by the noisy voices around her, her head was still dizzy, and when she struggled to get up, two elderly grandmothers came to help her. sat up and woke up, and saw the Queen Mother standing in front of her, looking at her condescendingly at this time, as well as all the palace people of Changle Palace behind her.

"Queen Mother, Zhou Meihong was killed." Ansu thought of what she had seen last night, and shouted out the first sentence.

"The mourning family already knows, and calling all of you here at this time is to find out who is so bold that he dares to commit murder in Changle Palace!" Songhe brought a chair to the Queen Mother and put it in the courtyard, it seems that this matter will not be able to be solved in a while.

"Cheng Jiao, bring the corpse up." As soon as the Queen Mother ordered, Cheng Jiao, who had been waiting on the side for a long time, beckoned the two little eunuchs and carried out a corpse covered with a white cloth.

Now that it's daylight and in the courtyard, it's not as gloomy as last night, and An Su no longer has fear in his heart. Although Zhou Meihong is a colleague of the palace maid for a few months, she has no friendship with An Su, if she can save her life, it will naturally be good. But now that he is dead, An Su does not have much sadness in his heart.

The white cloth covering the corpse was pulled away, and Zhou Meihong's death was not terrifying, but the whip marks on her body and the dagger pierced in her chest still made people look uncomfortable. An Su glanced behind him with his residual eyes, the palace people were very calm, perhaps because Changle Palace was a weathered old man, and they were already surprised by this.

The incident happened in Changle Palace, of course the Queen Mother did not want to make things bigger, so the people below did not invite the servants to come over for an autopsy, everything was handled by the palace maid Hu Yu and the eunuch chief Yuxian of Changle Palace. As the person who was at the scene of the murder yesterday, An Su was questioned by them several times. The process of trying the case is quite good, but An Su knows that this is inside the Changle Palace, and what the truth of the matter is depends on the words of the queen mother's master.

"This dagger pierced on Zhou Meihong's chest, do any of you recognize it?" Okhyun asked at the top of her voice.

An Su looked up at the dagger he was holding in his hand, the pattern on this dagger was very different, it seemed to be engraved with a giant python, and the python head extended all the way to the blade. But An Su just glanced at the dagger, and was attracted by another thing on Yuxian's body, which was a jade plaque hanging from his waist, the color of agate red, which was extremely noble at a glance, and must have always been carried with him.

Ansu retracted her gaze, and she already understood the whole thing in her heart. She finally knew why the Queen Mother was indifferent when she proposed a better way to get rid of Gao Yi yesterday. If the plan is already being implemented, why bother with another approach? What's more, the Queen Mother summoned her to the dormitory, which is also a vital part of this plan.

"Chief Jade, the minions recognize this dagger." One of the eunuchs in the palace spoke up, "This is the python dagger that the Queen Mother rewarded the high attendants, only the high attendants have this one, and he has to take it out every day to check it!" ”

"Yes! The slave also recognized that this was indeed a high attendant, and we also saw him take it out to show off, saying that the queen mother only rewarded him, and he was very proud! ”

An Su's face was unexpected, in this way, Gao Yi fell into the tomb prepared for him by the Queen Mother.
