Xiao Dezi didn't dare to reply, for fear of being beaten again, so he just shook his head slightly and put away the handkerchief carefully.

"You deserve it, and you should remember it for a long time next time." Jiang Linlin was unmoved, but felt that Xiao Dezi deserved it, and snorted happily.

Xiao Dezi let go of his forehead, and the piercing pain came again, and his eyes were dim.

Can't a slave cry out in pain, can't he be angry?

At this time, the sealed door of the temple was opened, and there was a "swish" sound, and everyone heard the sound and looked at it.

Xiao Qing, dressed in green, walked out slowly, looked at the few people in front of him with a pair of almond eyes, saw the blood on the ground, and frowned irritably.

Jiang Yingxue took a step forward, with a warm smile on her face, and asked softly, "But the people around Empress Dowager Lu?" I am General Liu's wife, Jiang Yingxue. ”

Jiang Yingxue's skin was as white as snow, her water eyes stared at her, she seemed to be able to tolerate everything, and the corners of her mouth rose to a graceful arc, elegant and gentle.

Xiaoqing was stunned, she had long heard of General Liu's name, many people in the palace had talked about him, and they had also heard a little about Jiang Yingxue, but she didn't know why she came.

"Mrs. Liu, what are you looking for the Queen Mother?" Xiaoqing softened her tone and asked calmly.

Jiang Yingxue glanced back and saw that Jiang Linlin was turning her head away, not daring to look at her directly.

Jiang Yingxue didn't intend to hide it, and said bluntly: "Jiang Linlin was summoned by the Queen Mother, saying that she was too thick and ordered me to go together. ”

Xiaoqing nodded, looked at Jiang Linlin on the side, and saw that she was dressed in purple and her face was full of fat powder, and she said it vulgarly.

Xiaoqing remembered the previous instructions of the Empress Dowager Lu, looked at Jiang Yingxue with a little weakness, and said softly: "Everyone, please come in, the Empress Dowager has just woken up and is calling you to come in and say goodbye." ”

Jiang Linlin snorted coldly, hurriedly tidied up, felt good about herself, and walked into the palace with her chin high.

"Can I help?" Seeing Xiaoqing nodding and following closely, Jiang Yingxue grabbed Xiaoqing's arm and said indifferently.

Xiaoqing instructed the maid to lead Jiang Linlin in, her apricot eyes were full of doubts, and there was also a hint of vigilance, in the deep palace, you must be careful everywhere.

Jiang Yingxue signaled her not to be nervous, her eyes were sincere, and she said bluntly: "It's Xiao Dezi's father-in-law who is injured, do you have any ointment, please deal with it for him." ”

Xiao Qing's eyes swept over, and saw that the wound on Xiao Dezi's forehead was not small, and they were all the same pain, so he nodded and said, "The slave maid is going to get the medicine, can the lady enter the palace first?" ”

Seeing her agree, Jiang Yingxue nodded with a smile, not embarrassed Xiaoqing, took the initiative to raise her steps and walked in with her little father-in-law.

All around were airtight, obscured by black cloth, and only a few lights were burning, emitting a dim glow.

The air was filled with the smell of bitter medicine, presumably to treat the Queen Mother's sleep, Jiang Yingxue paid attention.

Following the light, I saw the Queen Mother leaning on the side of the bed, her face was pale, and her lips were bloodless.

And Jiang Linlin, who entered first, had already knelt on the ground, not daring to squeak like a quail, and her forehead was close to the ground.

The atmosphere, like the black cloth around it, blocked out all the sunlight, leaving only tension and a heavy sense of oppression.

"The Queen Mother, Wanfu Jin'an." Jiang Yingxue walked forward quickly and saluted the Empress Dowager Lu.

Jiang Yingxue's voice was soothing and relaxed, and after people listened to it, the frizziness on her body was smoothed out.

Empress Dowager Lu naturally can't forget Jiang Yingxue, let alone the throne that they can threaten her emperor, the current emperor.

Empress Dowager Lu cheered up, looked at it, and said in a deep voice: "Get up." ”

Jiang Yingxue responded, and then slowly got up, still calm as usual.

And Jiang Linlin's palms on the ground were sweating, she had not suffered, but without the order of the Queen Mother, she did not dare to get up.

"Jiang Yingxue, why are you here?" Empress Dowager Lu glanced at her coldly, with a deep disgust, and did not hide her thoughts.

"It was Miss Jiang Linlin who said that the Queen Mother wanted to see Mrs. Liu, so Mrs. Liu followed." Xiaoqing walked over quickly and said flatly.

"It's time for the Queen Mother to drink some water, and the slave maid will go." Xiaoqing saw that the Queen Mother's lips were chapped, so she patted her head in annoyance, and quickly brought tea.

Jiang Linlin looked at the ground in front of her, guessing the queen mother's thoughts, sweating like rain, and trembling in fear.

The Queen Mother took the teacup and took a sip, her eyes spicy.

Empress Dowager Lu went through the blood rain of the deep palace, and she could see at a glance what kind of low-grade Jiang Linlin was, and when she learned that she was still lying about herself, she strengthened her inner thoughts.

"Jiang Linlin, she's a good girl." The Queen Mother deliberately reread the three words, killing intent flashed in her eyes, and said coldly, "Raise your head." ”

Jiang Linlin's heart was about to jump out of her heart, she gritted her teeth and raised her head, and said obediently: "Queen Mother, the courtiers really don't know how to pick time, but they just want to come to the Queen Mother to say goodbye." ”

The Queen Mother stared at her silently, Jiang Linlin felt the thorn in her back, her voice became smaller and smaller, and she tried to explain: "The courtier also invited her sister to greet the Queen Mother together, but it was misinterpreted. ”

"You mean it's not your fault that the mourning family was woken up, Jiang Yingxue came to blame you for the mourning family?" Empress Dowager Lu's eyes were cold, like a poisonous snake, which made people timid.

Seeing that the more she explained, the worse it became, Jiang Linlin panicked, waved her hands anxiously, tears were about to be scared down, and shook her head and said: "That's what the courtiers don't mean, it's the courtier's fault." ”

Jiang Linlin secretly regretted that if Xiao Dezi followed her, he would definitely speak by himself and let the Queen Mother know that the emperor valued her.

Maybe it won't be so bad, Jiang Linlin hated it.

Empress Dowager Lu felt that she was just a little girl, if she let the emperor play, Jiang Linlin shouldn't have used the emperor.

Empress Dowager Lu was in the deep palace, but she heard her father mention it, and when she learned that Jiang Linlin's purpose was not pure, she could no longer tolerate sand.

"Get up, you don't look good when you kneel on the ground, you will always be laughed at when you see it." Empress Dowager Lu waved her hand casually and sneered, very disdainful of her.

As soon as she heard this, Jiang Linlin's tears were like a river bursting its banks, gushing out of her eyes and flowing down her cheeks.

"Empress Dowager Xie." Jiang Linlin hurriedly wiped it off with her sleeve, she knew that she had no dignity anymore, and she was trampled and broken.

Jiang Linlin's mind was blank, she was like a lost bird, she could only move forward desperately, but she didn't know where her destination was.

Empress Dowager Lu knew that for an idiot like Jiang Linlin, it would not be too late to clean up, but Jiang Yingxue was different.

"Jiang Yingxue, you always surprise the mourning family, why did you go back to Beijing, could it be that Tian Jiang has been governed?" Empress Dowager Lu gritted her teeth and said, throwing away the teacup and sprinkling the tea at Jiang Yingxue's feet.

Seeing Jiang Yingxue's indifferent expression, fair face, and fluttering white clothes, Empress Dowager Lu couldn't stop feeling jealous and hateful.

Empress Dowager Lu hated the first emperor, hated Jiang Yingxue, and hated herself even more, she felt like a lamp that was about to be empty, and it was about to disappear.

Empress Dowager Lu is in a high position, and the only one who can't rest assured is her emperor.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the flooding of Tianjiang has been solved, and the subsequent construction will be completed by Lord Zhao." Jiang Yingxue was not surprised, her eyes were firm, and she said seriously, "The courtier's wife entered Beijing this time to ask for orders to go to the barracks. ”
