After breakfast, Lu Nianjin asked the nurse Yu to hug Ji'er, Ji'er had several meals of milk a day, and recently added supplementary food, growing more and more white and fat, and when he saw her, he smiled and opened his two lotus-like arms.

Lu Nianjin hugged the heavy little guy in his arms, weighed his weight up and down, looked at the nurse Yu Shi and said, "Compared with the past few days, is Ji'er a little heavier?" ”

When Yu heard this, he smiled gently and said, "After feeding the little county king milk this morning, the slave and maid specially weighed that it weighed two catties, and the child just had to be fat to look good." ”

Lu Nianjin nodded sympathetically, "That's what the nurse said." ”

As she was talking, Yun Shu walked in from outside and stepped forward to say, "Crown Princess Qiqi, Mama Qin from the Qianyuan Palace is here, now do you want to let her in?" ”

"Mama Qin?" When Lu Nianjin heard these three words, he became overjoyed, with a smile on his face, and ordered, "Invite her in." ”

"Yes, Crown Princess!" Yun Shu took the order and retreated.

It didn't take long for her to walk in with Mama Qin, who was dressed in palace clothes.

Different from Lu Nianjin's joy, Mama Qin's face was more solemn and guilty.

"The old slave has seen the crown princess," she stepped forward with a calm step, and saluted with an extremely upright body.

Lu Nianjin saw the different color on Mama Qin's face in her eyes, but she didn't think much about it, just when she was tortured like this after entering the palace, there was even a touch of distress in her eyes, hugged Ji'er, and said softly, "Mama doesn't have to be formal, get up quickly." ”

Mama Qin heard her say this, but she didn't get up, but looked at Ji'er in her arms, a touch of softness finally appeared on her face, and she asked softly, "This is the little county king, the old slave is still the first time to see it, and he should kowtow to the little county king." As she spoke, she lifted her skirt and knelt down again, and solemnly kowtowed three times.

"Yun Jiang, quickly help Mama Qin up," Mama Qin kowtowed, Lu Nianjin said to Yun Jiang beside her, "Bring Mama a brocade again." ”

"Yes, girl." Yun Jiang agreed, and glanced at the little maid beside her, and the little maid immediately went out and brought a brocade pestle.

Mama Qin excused herself again before sitting down.

"How has Mama been doing in the palace this year?" After making the maid serve tea again, Lu Nianjin talked to Mama Qin seriously.

Mama Qin smiled and said softly and gently, "The emperor is a benevolent monarch, and the queen is also benevolent, and the old slave is naturally doing well in the Qianyuan Palace." ”

"That's good," Lu Nianjin said, paused, and added, "If there is anything bad in the future, Mama also remember to let people tell me, our master and servant, I will never ignore those who can help Mama." ”

"The old slave knows," Mama Qin nodded lightly with tears in her eyes, "These old slaves know." ”

Lu Nianjin smiled faintly at Mama Qin, looking at the cloudy tears flashing in her eyes, and after a while, she asked again, "By the way, Mama, I haven't asked yet, what is the matter with you leaving the palace this time?" ”

Mama Qin heard Lu Nianjin ask about the purpose of her leaving the palace, she pondered for a moment, and did not answer immediately, but glanced left and right.

Lu Nianjin understood what she meant, turned to Yun Jiang and said, "You take someone out first." ”

"Yes, girl," Yun Jiang took the order to leave, and before leaving, she added uneasily, "The slave and maid are guarding outside, if there is anything, girl, you can hear it." ”

"Go ahead." Lu Nianjin waved his hand at her, and Yun Jiang walked out.

The maidservants all withdrew, and only Mama Qin, Lu Nianjin, and Ji'er were left in the house.

"What does Mama have to say, I can say it now." Lu Nianjin smiled at Mama Qin and signaled that she had something to say directly.

Hearing this, Mama Qin slowly stood up and said softly, "Can the old slave get closer?" ”

"Naturally." Lu Nianjin nodded.

Mama Qin walked forward step by step, and did not stop until she was only half a step away from Lu Nianjin.

Lu Nianjin looked at Mama Qin, who was standing on his right, and smiled with curled lips, "Mama can always talk about it now." ”

A flash of struggle flashed in Mama Qin's eyes, and the tears in her eyes were even thicker, Lu Nianjin looked at it, and was about to ask her what grievances she had suffered in the palace, but the next moment, Mama Qin took out a cold short dagger from her sleeve, screamed, and stabbed Ji'er in Lu Nianjin's arms in the chest.

Lu Nianjin didn't seem to expect Mama Qin to suddenly make a move, and when she saw the dagger stabbing at her, she subconsciously hugged Ji'er and turned around, and used her arm to face Mama Qin's dagger.

Then, only to hear a crisp sound, when Lu Nianjin turned around again, the dagger in Mama Qin's hand had already fallen to the ground, and Yun Jiang quickly entered from the outside, cut her arm backwards, and then pinched her chin hard, unloading her chin.

Her set of actions is smooth, saying that it is too late and that is fast, from beginning to end, at most it is a few breaths.

Lu Nianjin hugged Ji'er tightly, she sat up straight, with a touch of coldness in her eyes, she looked at Mama Qin who was kneeling on the ground with a sad face and couldn't raise her head, "Concubine Jing asked you to come, right?" ”

Mama Qin lowered her head and didn't move, like a dead person.

Lu Nianjin looked at her like this, his heart ached violently, and while patting Ji'er in his arms, he looked at her and said, "If you confess now, I can still allow you a whole corpse in the previous master-servant relationship." But if you refuse to recruit people, then I can only hand you over to the prince. ”

When Mama Qin heard Lu Nianjin say this, she slowly raised her head, looking like she wanted to speak.

Lu Nianjin met her eyes, pondered for a moment, turned to Yun Jiang, and said, "See if she has poison hidden in her mouth, don't let her commit suicide in fear of sin!" ”

"Yes, girl!" Yun Jiang stepped forward, rudely broke Mama Qin's mouth open, and after carefully inspecting it, she pulled out the two teeth that Mama Qin had just filled, and turned to Lu Nianjin and said, "Girl, sure enough, there are two new teeth that hide the poison sac." ”

Lu Nianjin didn't say anything, and motioned with her eyes to help Mama Qin put her chin back.

Yun Jiang did so, she pinched Mama Qin's chin tightly, only to hear a click, and the next moment, Mama Qin's chin was loaded back.

Lu Nianjin looked at her indifferently, and Mama Qin coughed violently twice before she spoke, "Crown Princess Rongyu, today's matter has nothing to do with Concubine Jing, it is all because Lu Guifei forced the old slave to do this." ”

Lu Nianjin listened to her empty white teeth, and pulled up Lu Guifei with one mouth, revealing a thick disappointment in her eyes, and then, she glanced at Yun Jiang and said, "Drag it out and hand it over to the prince to dispose of!" ”

"Yes, girl!" Yun Jiang replied sharply, and the next moment, with a gentle clapping of hands, Yun Xun and Yun Hui walked in from outside.

The two of them also followed Yun Jiang outside just now, and listened to the words in the bedroom really, yes, there was no need for Lu Nianjin and Yun Jiang to say more, the two of them left and right, blocked Mama Qin's mouth, pulled her and walked out.

Lu Nianjin watched Mama Qin being dragged away, thinking of her crazy move just now, she breathed a sigh of relief in fear, and then looked at Yun Jiang and said, "Thanks to you just now!" ”

Yun Jiang smiled, but didn't dare to take credit, "This is all hinted at by the girl." ”

Yes, Yun Jiang didn't say it casually when she went out just now, she was hinting at Lu Nianjin that she understood what she meant, and she was also beating Mama Qin.

But unfortunately, Mama Qin finally chose to go her own way.

On the other side, Xiao Xun happened to be Xiu Mu today, and when he learned about the assassination of Mama Qin in Luoshenyuan, he just entered the study and sat down behind the desk.

Bing, as usual, carefully sorted out the folds and newspapers on the desk, and after finishing it, he noticed a piece of paper that Xiao Xun had upside down, so he casually asked, "Uncle Shi, what is this?" ”

Xiao Xun flipped over the page in his hand and said, "A puzzle." ”

"Puzzles? What puzzles? "Bing is interested.

Xiao Xun had lost interest in asking others after hitting a wall last night, so he didn't say much at the moment, and directly gave him the page of rice paper.

Bing took it and read softly: "I'm above, you're below, you don't move, I don't move, when I move, you hurt, you get out of the water, I'm happy......"

"Isn't this what Master loves to do, fishing!" After a while, he muttered quietly.

Xiao Xun's eyes lit up when he heard him say this, he sat up straight, looked at him and said, "Bing, what you say, you say it again." ”

Bing glanced at his uncle suspiciously, and then said, "I said, isn't the answer to this puzzle fishing!" ”

"I'm on top, you're down, you don't move, I don't move, when I move, you hurt, you get out of the water, I'm happy...... Yes, how did Hongu not think that the answer to this puzzle is fishing! Xiao Xun said with a sudden realization, he flicked his sleeves, stood up suddenly, and walked around the desk to go out.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside, Xiao Xun stopped, he put one hand behind him, looked at the door of the study, and said in a deep voice, "Come in!" ”

The next moment, the guard of the study walked in from the outside, stepped forward and said, "Prince Qiqi, Yun Xun and Miss Yun Hui beside the princess of Luoshenyuan have something important to see, and I look forward to the prince's time." ”

"Let them in," Hearing that it was about Lu Nianjin, Xiao Xun paused and said.

The guards bowed down and retreated, and not long after, Yun Xun and Yun Hui walked in with Mama Qin in their arms.

Xiao Xun was slightly shocked when he saw Mama Qin, whose hands were cut behind her back and her chin was removed, and then asked in a solemn voice, "What's going on?" ”

Hearing this, Yun Xun arched her hand and spoke, and said the succinct and concise Mama Qin's assassination of Xiao Ji.

After Xiao Xun listened, his face immediately turned cold, his eyes seemed to be frozen with ice, he looked at Mama Qin coldly, and called "Come to the minister"!

The words fell, but after a few breaths, the minister appeared in the study, and asked Xiao Xun on the main seat, and arched his hand, "Master, please command!" ”

Xiao Xun's eyes were cold, and he looked at Mama Qin and said, "Give this person to Zhang Jiu, so that he doesn't have to show mercy to his subordinates, and make sure that she pours all the ingredients clean!" ”

"Subordinates take orders!" Laichen replied with an awe-inspiring expression, he took over Yun Xun and Yun Hui, picked up Mama Qin and walked out.

And Zhang Jiu in the palace received a summons from the ministers not long after, and quickly went to Zhuangzi outside the city.

"Go back." After solving Mama Qin, Xiao Xun waved his hand at Yun Xun and Yun Hui.

"Wow," Yun Xun and Yun Hui said in a low voice, turning to leave.

Xiao Xun walked between the two, his face became even more gloomy, and his eyes were cold, he hadn't seen it before, Concubine Jing had such a skill.

Dare to let Mama Qin assassinate Ji'er, does he think he is an ornament? Hum! Since she dared to poison his wife and children three times and twice, don't blame him for asking Xiao Ze for a leg!

What Xiao Xun did that day, no one knows, others only know, on the second day, when the fourth prince Xiao Ze came out of the wall in Meng Siqing's mansion, he accidentally broke his leg, and even the imperial doctor in the palace could not guarantee that he would be disabled.

In the Chonghua Palace, Concubine Jing listened to the report from the people of the Four Princes' Mansion, and immediately changed her face, "Did the imperial doctor really say that?" ”

The eunuch close to the fourth prince nodded tremblingly, and said, "Back to Niangniang's words, the housekeeper invited a few imperial doctors and a few Langzhong, they all said so!" ”

"My son, my son......" Concubine Jing murmured in a low voice, her face pale.

When the eunuch saw Concubine Jing like this, he trembled even more, he was afraid that Concubine Jing would blame him, just like Lu Guifei treated the personal eunuch of the third prince, and unknowingly killed people.

With a cold sweat on his head, he said tentatively, "Niangniang, there is another sentence, the slave doesn't know whether to say it or not!" ”

Concubine Jing glanced at him and said nothing.

Aunt Huai beside her glanced at the eunuch coldly, and said sharply, "It's all here, don't hurry up and listen to what you have to say, and then hide it, be careful of your dog's life!" ”

"Yes, Auntie!" The eunuch trembled for a while before he spoke, "Yes, that's right, after the fourth prince woke up, he said that he didn't accidentally fall off the wall, but was hit in the heel by someone, so he didn't stand firm, and fell hard......"

Concubine Jing listened to his report, the whole person was even more silent, originally when she learned that Ze'er broke her leg, she had some suspicions that this matter was done by the prince, but now after listening to Ze'er's personal eunuch's words, her heart is even more determined.

This thing was done by Xiao Xun!

He didn't do anything else, just to make Xiao Ji angry, and by the way, to shock her again, he wanted her to know that it was not so easy for her to harm him, but it was easy for him to let Xiao Ze lose his arm and leg, or even die, after all, no one knew how much power he had accumulated when he was a national teacher.

"Stand down! Serve well by the side of the four princes, and the palace will find a way in the palace to let the emperor send a capable doctor over. Thinking like this, it took a long time for her to come back to her senses, and she held her breath in her heart, and said to the eunuch mournfully.

As soon as the eunuch heard that Concubine Jing was willing to let him go, he was busy kowtowing and thanking him, and promised that he would take good care of Xiao Ze.

"Go ahead!" Concubine Jing waved her hand, and her eyebrows were gloomy.

The eunuch withdrew.

Aunt Huai saw that her master's brows were furrowed terribly, and took the initiative to stand behind her and help her rub her temples.

Her ancestors were doctors, and when she was a child outside the palace, she often served her grandmother who lingered on the sickbed, and her massage skills were very skillful.

Aunt Ah Huai was also watching the sadness on her master's face fade a lot, before she said softly, "The legs of the fourth prince, I don't know what Niangniang has in mind?" ”

Concubine Jing had been thinking about this question for a while, and when she heard Aunt Ahuai ask, she squinted her eyes slightly, and said softly, "Naturally, whoever was injured will be responsible." ”

"What do you mean by Niangniang, let Miss Meng go and ask the prince?"

"Hmm." Concubine Jing nodded lightly, thinking of Meng Qingting, her brows wrinkled unconsciously, if it weren't for the fact that she knew a lot of secrets, and Ze'er liked her very much, she really didn't want this daughter-in-law, it was too stupid!

"Then the slave maid, let people invite Miss Meng into the palace."

"Go ahead!" Concubine Jing said, "No matter what excuse she uses to refuse, she refutes it all." ”

"Yes, sis!" Aunt Huai took the order and retreated.

Mon Province.

Meng Qingting is also uncomfortable at the moment, although Xiao Ze broke his leg on the wall of the Meng family, and there are many faults on him, but as his fiancée, she is still affected and punished by her father to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Looking at the ancestral tablet in front of her, feeling the shade in the inner room, she gasped.

Since she was reborn, she hadn't knelt in the ancestral hall for a long time, before, she knelt for three days in a row without any discomfort, but now, only half a day, her knee hurts as if it wasn't her own.

She was distracted, and suddenly there was a brisk footstep outside, and then the voice of her personal maid Rong Yao sounded outside, "Grandma Sun, someone is coming from Chonghua Palace, you want to take Miss into the palace, open the door." ”

"Yes, yes, Miss Rongyao." Grandma Sun said flatteringly, and soon, she opened the door of the ancestral hall, and in the next moment, the warm sunlight shone in, and the entire ancestral hall lit up.

Meng Qingting squinted, looked back, and saw Rong Yao walking towards her with small steps, helping her up in distress, and said, "Miss, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." Meng Qingting shook his head gently, she was reborn, and there were many people who wanted revenge, but only Rong Yao was not among them, because in her previous life, Rong Yao was the best person in this world for her, no matter whether she was proud or frustrated, Rong Yao was always by her side, and in the end, she died for her.

She stood up with Rong Yao's hand, step by step, painfully and happily walking out.

In the front hall, the palace people of Chonghua Palace were negotiating with her father, and they were respectful to their uncles.

When her father saw her come in, he gave her a look, with a little pride on his face, and raised his chin and said, "Since Niangniang wants to see you, you can go to the palace with Aunt Wang in the Qing Court." ”

"Yes, father." Meng Qingting replied in a low voice.

Aunt Wang had already seen the master, so she offered to leave, "The slave and maid have to go back to the palace to restore the mother's life, so I won't bother the uncle." ”

Meng Siqing arched his hand, "I'll let someone send Aunt Wang." As he spoke, he glanced at the old butler beside him.

The old housekeeper understood, made a gesture of please, and walked out with Aunt Wang and his eldest lady.

Outside Meng's mansion, there was already a carriage waiting, Meng Qingting had not officially married into the royal family, so she and Aunt Wang were in a carriage.

After getting into the car, she smiled gently at Aunt Wang, took off a jade bracelet with a good head, stuffed it into her hand, and asked, "Auntie, do you know why Niangniang summoned me into the palace?" ”

Aunt Wang took the bracelet, and the smile on her face deepened, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't say anything useful, only officially, "The fourth prince was injured, and the place where the accident happened was the county lord's mansion, and the mother was worried that the county lord was too guilty." ”

Meng Qingting was reborn and knew how strict the rules of Chonghua Palace were, so he was just a test, but now that he saw that Aunt Wang was really strict-mouthed, he only smiled and thanked him, and then said no more.

An hour later, the carriage stopped at the palace gate.

Aunt Wang served Meng Qingting and changed the sedan chair, and staggered for two quarters of an hour before arriving at the inner palace.

When he arrived at the inner palace, he had to get off the sedan chair, Meng Qingting finally felt better on his legs after recuperating all the way, and then followed Aunt Wang, so it was not so difficult.

After another quarter of an hour, I arrived at Chonghua Palace.

In the main hall of Chonghua Palace, Concubine Jing was still sitting in Fang Cai's position, and when she heard the report that Meng Qingting had come in, she immediately said, "Please let her in." ”

"Yes, sis!" Yougong people walked out quickly, and it didn't take long for Meng Qingting to be led in.

After arriving in front of Concubine Jing, she was about to bow to her, but Concubine Jing stood up from the phoenix seat before she paid her respects, and helped her to say, "But I haven't been here for a while, why did I become so polite!" ”

Concubine Jing said, and asked people to move the brocade over and put it under her phoenix seat.

Meng Qingting sat down at the signal of Concubine Jing, she lowered her head, and said with red eyes, "When something like this happened to the fourth prince, Qing Ting originally thought that Niang Niang would not want to see Qing Ting. ”

"How could you think that!" When Concubine Jing heard her say this, she immediately lightly scolded her, and said unhappily, "Although Ze'er is Bengong's own son, but in this matter, Bengong still feels that what he did is wrong, how can a guy sneak away to his fiancée's house in the middle of the night!" I can't even like it anymore! According to the palace, he deserved to fall this time! Qing Court, you really don't need to feel guilty, you have the right to teach him a lesson! ”

"Niangniang......" Meng Qingting really didn't expect that Concubine Jing didn't blame her at all, she thought that she called her into the palace just to reprimand her!

I didn't expect ......

She couldn't help but reddened her eyes, held Concubine Jing's hand tightly, and said with tears falling like rain, "Niangniang, you are so good to me, just like my own mother...... You also know that my mother was gone when I was four or five years old, all these years, I have been thinking about her very much, originally I thought that no one in this life will ever cherish me like her, but now, facing you, I feel in a trance that my mother is back again! ”

"Silly girl!" Seeing that she was in deep love, Concubine Jing's eyes also turned red, and she held her hand harder, and said, "Do you know that in the heart of this palace, I have long regarded you as the biological daughter of this palace." ”
