Mao Lingfeng was very bored with the singing and dancing in front of him, and raised his head just to meet Wang Jingyu's gaze, and the two looked at each other slightly. They all understand each other's minds. So Yu Jingyu got up and said goodbye to Sima Yan, and left the banquet hand in hand with Mao Lingfeng.

The two came all the way to the Imperial Garden, and Mao Lingfeng said, "Sister has something on her mind. Yu Jingyu sighed and said, "Seeing that you and the prince are in love, my sister is so envious." ”

Mao Lingfeng looked at her expression, and there was something else she didn't understand. "But this Xu Rong'er is pampered and arrogant, and she gives her sister a face."

Wang Jingyu shook her head, "She doesn't give me a face, I don't have it, I just feel as cold as a prison in this deep palace." ”

Mao Lingfeng comforted: "My sister has given birth to a prince and a princess for the emperor, she is just relying on the emperor's favor now, and she has no heirs, sister and be relieved, in a few years, when the emperor is tired of it, she will be nothing." ”

Wang Jingyu bowed her head: "Sister Dao also understands that in a high position, of course she can't be like ordinary people, just a Xu Rong'er, and then Li Rong'er or something, Zhao Rong'er or something, and I am no longer in my prime, and I can only rely on my son and daughter." Now I envy my sister for being able to get the prince's heart. If I had been able to meet someone who was single-minded about me before, I wouldn't want to set foot in this palace. ”，

Mao Lingfeng pondered for a long time, and said quietly: "Life is perfect, my sister now has both children and daughters, but I can only have hot eyes, and I don't know if I can have a man and a woman in this life." Now I can only live by relying on the prince's affection, and if this affection is no longer there in the future, I don't know how to live. ”

Wang Jingyu was shocked, she had a lot of heart, and she was sad again, so she comforted: "The imperial doctor said that your body has been very good, and if you raise it for another year or two, maybe there will be surprises!" ”

Mao Lingfeng shook his head and smiled bitterly, in the past two years, he has seen countless famous doctors and used a lot of precious medicinal materials. The bitter medicine soup continued every day, and the body was better, but the stomach did not move. It seems that there is very little hope.

So both of them avoided the topic and sat on the pavilion by the pool drinking tea and chatting. saw that Xu Rong'er and the two palace maids also walked up to the pavilion, but they reversed their arrogance just now and respectfully saluted Wang Jingyu and Mao Lingfeng.

Mao Lingfeng frowned, she didn't want to pay attention to her, but after thinking about it, she must be the emperor's favorite concubine, and she couldn't sweep the emperor's son, so she frowned and said in a deep voice: "The concubine doesn't have to be polite, the courtiers can't afford it." ”

Xu Rong'er's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, and she casually hid it on her smiling □ like a flower, and said with a smile: "I don't know what my sister and the princess are saying here, can you let Rong'er listen to it." ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled and said: "My sister and I are chatting about some private things, I'm afraid it's not easy for the concubine to listen!" ”

Xu Rong'er smiled and said: "I heard that the princess was famous in the territory back then, but if there are any interesting things, you might as well talk about it, so that my sister can also have a long experience." ”

Mao Lingfeng sneered, "Marching and fighting, licking blood with a knife, I am afraid that it will pollute the ears and eyes of the concubine, so don't say it." ”

Xu Rong'er was not angry, Guan Zi sat down beside Zhuo, and said with a smile: "The princess said that she was joking, who didn't know that the princess was unparalleled in wisdom and good at fighting, since the princess refused to say it, she must not look down on Rong'er." ”

Mao Lingfeng sneered and was silent. Xu Rong'er pretended to be disappointed and said: "Since the princess doesn't like Rong'er, then Rong'er will retire first." After speaking, he got up and blessed Wang Jingyu and Mao Lingfeng, and was about to leave, but unexpectedly his feet slipped and fell towards Wang Jingyu.

Mao Lingfeng's eyes flashed, and with a wave of his long sleeves, he rolled Xu Rong'er and pounced on Wang Jingyu's body, held her up, and sneered: "The concubine Niangniang has to stand up, don't fall, then the emperor will blame it, but the courtiers can't afford it." ”

Xu Rong'er stood up and said embarrassedly: "Thank you, princess, otherwise Rong'er would have to fall to the ground." ”

Wang Jingyu's face sank like water, and she shouted: "Useless slave, just now the concubine got up, why don't you go to help each other, if it wasn't for the princess's quick reaction just now, if the concubine has any physical damage, the palace will kill you." ”

The two palace maids beside Xu Rong'er trembled in fright, knelt on the ground, and begged loudly for mercy. Seeing this scene, Xu Rong'er had no choice but to say: "Fang Cai's sister has a lot of heart, and she can't blame them, so my sister will let them go." ”

Wang Jingyu snorted coldly, "Since my sister intercedes for you, I will slap each of them ten times." To emulate with respect. Don't retreat yet. ”

The two palace maids kowtowed and thanked her, and helped Xu Rong'er to leave in a hurry. Mao Lingfeng looked at the figure in the distance, turned his head to Wang Jingyu and said: "When I first came back, I saw her, but she didn't have scheming, but unexpectedly, after a few years in the palace, she also learned to play tricks. Sister should be careful. ”

Wang Jingyu looked at her and said, "According to my sister, what does she want to do!" ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled coldly, it was nothing more than trying to frame her sister for something, and my sister got up to see if there was anything more, or something missing. After speaking, he pulled Wang Jingyu up and carefully examined it on the ground, but found no clues.

Wang Jingyu also carefully checked the jewelry she was wearing, and found that she didn't find anything missing, nor did she find anything more. couldn't help but say suspiciously: "She was so obvious just now, she clearly wanted to do something, how could there be nothing!" ”

Mao Lingfeng just wanted to speak, a breeze blew a faint fragrance, and his face couldn't help but change, he pulled Wang Jingyu to check it again, and saw a sachet hanging on Wang Jingyu's waist, so he couldn't help but say, reached out and pulled off the sachet and put it on his nose to smell it and asked, "Why does my sister wear such a sachet." ”

Wang Jingyu saw that her face was heavy, and hurriedly asked, "Is there any problem!" ”

As soon as Mao Lingfeng wanted to open his mouth, he saw an attendant hurrying over, so he hung the sachet on his waist. The chamberlain saluted the two and said, "The concubine has just fainted, and the emperor has invited the queen to go to Rongxiangyuan." ”

The two glanced at each other, and hurriedly came to Rong Xiangyuan, only to see Xu Rong'er lying on the bed with a pale face, sweaty and blue, unconscious. The Imperial Physician stood beside him.

Wang Jingyu and Mao Lingfeng stepped forward to salute Sima Yan, and Sima Yan was upset and said, "Just excuse me." ”

Wang Jingyu asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with my sister?" ”

Sima Yan said upsetly: "Just now, the big doctor checked the pulse and said that Rong'er was pregnant. ”

"Oh, then congratulations to the emperor for adding another heir to the royal family." Wang Jingyu said calmly.

Sima Yan stared at her and said, "The queen really doesn't want to explain anything. ”

"Explain what." Wang Jingyu asked puzzled.

Sima Yan pointed to the two palace maids and said, "They said that Rong'er and you sat on the pavilion for a while, and fainted with abdominal pain on the way back to the palace, and now they have a miscarriage." ”

"What, it's a miscarriage." Wang Jingyu was startled, knelt down and said: "The concubine doesn't know why Sister Rong'er fainted and had a miscarriage, just now I and Feng'er chatted in the pavilion, and it happened that Sister Rong'er also came to sit for a while, and when she got up and walked, her body was unstable and she almost fell, but Sister Feng'er's eyes were quick and she helped her so that she didn't fall to the ground." ”

"Oh, that's true." Sima Yan turned his head to look at Mao Lingfeng.

Mao Lingfeng nodded and said, "Your Majesty, what the queen said is exactly what she said. For this, my sister also punished two palace maids. ”

Sima Yan looked back at the other palace maids behind Wang Jingyu and asked, "What the princess said is the truth. The palace maids knelt on the ground tremblingly and said, "What the princess said is true, and there is not a single lie. ”

Sima Yan frowned: Is it really an accident? So he turned his head to look at Xu Rong'er on the bed. At this time, Xu Rong'er woke up leisurely and saw that Sima Yan and Wang Jingyu were there, so she blinked her eyes and cried to Sima Yan with teary eyes: "Your Majesty, the concubine's child is gone, please let the emperor call the shots for the concubine." ”

Sima Yan frowned, "What are you doing, it's you who fainted and miscarried, who can blame you." ”

Xu Rong'er struggled to get up from the bed, and said with her head knocked: "The concubine has always been in good health, how could she faint and miscarry in a good manner, when she and her sister were sitting on the pavilion, the concubine smelled a fragrance, she felt dizzy, and almost fell, thanks to the princess's support, she didn't fall, and she became more and more dizzy on the way back to Rong Xiangyuan." Please ask the emperor to check carefully. ”

Sima Yan's face sank, and he said, "What kind of strange fragrance, do you mean that when you are with the queen, you start to get dizzy when you smell the strange fragrance." ”

Xu Rong'er nodded and said, "Yes, the concubine will never say anything." ”

"Imperial Doctor, you go to the queen's side to see, there is any abnormal fragrance."

Several imperial doctors walked up to Wang Jingyu and sniffed it carefully, their faces changed greatly, and they knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the queen has the smell of safflower and musk on her body. ”

"What." Wang Jingyu was taken aback, when did I have the scent of safflower and musk on my body, I never use these things, could it be that there is safflower and musk hidden in that sachet. So he turned his head to look at Mao Lingfeng, who nodded slightly. Suddenly I understood in my heart, and my face couldn't help but ooze thin sweat. I want to open my mouth to explain. Mao Lingfeng knelt on the ground first and said, "The minister is guilty, please punish the emperor." ”

Sima Yan said inexplicably: "What is the general's crime, please make it clear." ”

Mao Lingfeng untied the sachet in his waist and handed it to Sima Yan and said: "Your Majesty, this sachet has the fragrance of safflower and musk, which was embroidered by the minister some time ago when he asked his sister to help embroider, and he happened to wear it on his body today, but he didn't know that the concubine Niangniang would sit in the pavilion, and the minister forgot to remind the concubine Niangniang for a while, the minister is guilty, please ask the emperor to condemn the crime." ”

"What." Xu Rong'er looked up at Mao Lingfeng in disbelief, she never thought that Mao Lingfeng would actually hang the sachet on her body and take the blame for Wang Jingyu.

"Sister." Wang Jingyu's voice was choked and she couldn't speak. Mao Lingfeng glanced at her calmly and said, "It's my sister who didn't think about it and almost affected my sister." If you want to be beaten and punished, my sister will bear it. ”

"You guys." Xu Rong'er pointed at Mao Lingfeng, opened her mouth wide, and was speechless. After a while, he said: "Your Majesty, the concubines don't believe it, the concubines and the princess have no grievances and no enemies, why should the princess harm me, there must be someone else who harms me, please ask the emperor to investigate." ”

Mao Lingfeng knelt on the ground and said: "What the noble concubine said is right, the minister and the concubine have no grievances, and they don't know that the noble concubine is pregnant, so why harm you." It's just that a lot of ministers forgot to remind the concubine. Accidentally killed the mother's miscarriage. ”

Sima Yan looked at Mao Lingfeng, with a gloomy look on his face, yes, he just knew that Xu Rong'er was pregnant, how could Mao Lingfeng know in advance! Even if she wants to help the queen get rid of her worries, she can't know so quickly. So he shouted: "Mao Lingfeng, why do you wear musk and safflower sachets, and what do you want." ”

Mao Lingfeng's expression remained unchanged and said: "The minister is here, the minister trains soldiers in the barracks every day, it is inevitable that some bumps will be touched, musk safflower has the effect of invigorating blood and removing stasis, so the minister wears it with him, because the effect of safflower musk in the palace is better than that of ordinary pharmacies, and the minister is not good at female workers, so my sister embroidered one for me, and just entered the palace to give it to me." ”

"Nope." Xu Rong'er shouted, "It's clear that you want to excuse the queen, just talk nonsense." ”
