Chapter 53 Reason

As he was talking, a team of maids rushed in, well-trained to set up the lunch, and then quietly retreated, without a trace of superfluous movements in the whole process, and even Ling Jun showed appreciation.

"It's okay to do anything, you can also eat with me. The beauty said lightly.

Zhiying originally wanted to excuse himself, but he heard it again: "There are no rules in the Lingxi Palace, and I am also an outlier now, no one has the leisure to pick my fault in this, that son, what do you think?" The last sentence was asked by Ling Jun.

And so it is. Ling Jun nodded.

The three of them had dinner at one table, a harem concubine, and two outsiders, which was also a strange anecdote, but it was probably difficult to spread this matter, there were only three of them in the palace, and the others were sent out. This lady is not ordinary, she doesn't need to be served by anyone when she eats and dresses, and she will do what ordinary people are used to, I don't know if it has always been like this, or if it has been honed by the cold palace life.

Eating silently, sleeping silently, the three of them ate quietly. Seeing that the dishes on this table were exquisite and luxurious, not like the treatment that the concubines of the cold palace should have, she was a little puzzled, was she afraid that she would make trouble again, so she was eating and drinking to provide for her?

After the meal, a maid came in and collected the leftovers, served new tea, and automatically withdrew. The beauty took a sip of the teacup, and then said: "It's this year's new tea, I didn't expect me to come back from the dead, and there would be unexpected benefits in making a fuss." She looked at Zhiying, "You probably don't know, on the second day after I beat the forbidden army, His Majesty issued an order to make me a concubine, and all food and clothing are from the concubine position, but I still live in the Lingxi Palace, and I am not allowed to move around at will." ”

I see, if you can't beat it, you will be imprisoned in disguise, it is not a good way, Concubine An is not what it used to be, she is provoked, and it is not a problem to wash the harem in blood, it is better to take advantage of the fact that there is still room for redemption, take a step back, and not be too embarrassed.

"That lady, you haven't thought about leaving now that you're capable, or are you really reluctant to give up the emperor's favor?"

"You don't believe this yourself, why bother to ask me? Not to mention that Your Majesty's age is enough to be my father, just because I have never been favored in the past few years in the palace, and I have no husband and wife, what else can I talk about? Do you think I am willing to stay here and wait for my red face to turn dry, I am all people who have died once, and I still covet these flashy things, but as soon as I enter the palace, it is as deep as the sea, where is it to come when I want, and leave when I want, not to mention the title of an imperial concubine, which family is not dead, dare to have anything to do with me?"

I really didn't think about it, and she wasn't a real county lord, so she didn't know anything about royal life. It turns out that her ability is not omnipotent, no wonder she stays here honestly.

"Who invited you here?" asked Concubine An.

"It is Biyou Mountain that General Wang Jian went to by order. "Holding the Ying Road.

"I know that there is probably no second person besides him who will ask His Majesty for this decree. ”

"How do you say that?" Could it be that Concubine An and General Wang are very familiar?

"My mother's surname is Wang, and Wang Jian is the same clan, to this generation except for a surname, nothing else has anything to do with it, the concept of his clan is deep-rooted, and he always thinks of himself as a cousin, and he doesn't know how to avoid this kind of thing, but fortunately I bluffed them, otherwise even he would have to suffer together. ”

It turned out that there was such a kinship, and Zhiying rubbed her forehead, feeling that her head was a little insufficient. The intricacies of the family are not just talking, and even a little concubine in the cold palace can pull out so many twists and turns.

"If I used to, I might have rushed to get on good terms with him, but now, I don't want to get too close to anyone. By the way, don't you want to know why I became like this, in fact, I can't say the specifics, but when I was about to wake up, I heard a voice tell me to do something for him. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Find a key, a key that can unlock an ancient artifact. ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire hall immediately fell silent.

Zhiying was shocked, who was it, how could he know about the key, and why did he choose Concubine An, what is the connection between this?

Seeing that the two people on the other side didn't speak, Concubine An wondered, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's fine, it's just a little unbelievable. By the way, what characteristics does the person you are talking about, such as whether he is male or female, age, clothing, general outline, etc. ”

"You don't have to ask about the face and clothing, anyway, I didn't see it, the age, listening to the voice, about thirty years old, it's a man. ”

Zhiying listened and looked at Ling Jun and said that he had no clues, but Ling Jun lowered his head and pondered, not knowing what he was thinking.

The three of them gossiped a few more words, and seeing that it was not early, Ling Jun said goodbye and went back to resume his life.

Out of the Lingxi Palace, Zhiying asked Ling Jun: "What do you think about this?"

Ling Jun shook his head, "There are too few clues, and I can't make a conclusion for a while." ”

When they returned, the emperor was still sitting on his throne with his head bowed, and when he saw them come in, he was anxious to know what was going on. The two of them told everything they knew in detail, and at the end, Zhiying said: "This matter is indeed bizarre, but Concubine An will definitely not be a monster." ”

When the emperor heard this, he frowned and thought for a moment, and then said, "In that case, how should this matter be resolved according to your high opinions?"

Zhiying and Zhijie looked at each other, and they didn't know what to do next, but they couldn't tell the emperor that they were helpless, so what to ask them to do. was in trouble, Ling Jun on the side spoke: "Your Majesty, this matter is ostensibly the work of evil spirits, but I am afraid there is a deeper meaning. ”

"What kind of person is the emperor, Ling Jun reminded him, and he immediately thought of the relationship between the court and the harem. A little concubine of the cold palace came back from the dead, and it is really terrible to have a skill, but who stole her body, and who resurrected her and gave her a skill? She was born in the Wang family, but she is not close to the family, and the Wang family is only a medium family, and she is not capable of doing this kind of thing, otherwise Concubine An would not be favored after entering the palace for several years, and even be beaten into the cold palace, if it were not for the fact that this incident was too bizarre, she would only be unknown until she died.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a reluctant request. ”

The three people present were shocked when they heard this. Emperor, the true dragon emperor said that there is a "reluctant request", it must be a very tricky matter, if you really have to be stupid, people outside their side ignore mundane things, to put it bluntly, even the change of dynasty has little to do with them. However, they have already come to the palace, it is difficult to ride a tiger, if they refuse directly, the end can be imagined, they are not stupid to that point.

He arched his hand and said: "I can't wait for popular things, if Your Majesty has an order, I can only do my best." Lingjun Zhiying also means this, it is really difficult to do things in areas that he is not familiar with.

The emperor probably knew that it was difficult for the strongman, so he didn't mind, and just said, "Just do your best." Then he told what he was thinking and what he was thinking, and the three of them listened with different expressions.

"Your Majesty, a strategy is a good strategy, I will do my best, as for the rest, there is really no need. Zhiying said bitterly. I thought that she pretending to be the county lord was just an expedient measure, but now the emperor really wants to make her the county lord, how can this be good.

The emperor obviously didn't understand what she meant, "I Chrysostom Yuyan, you are the lord of Zhiying County, and after this incident, I will tell the world that all your expenses in the future will be treated as a clan girl." ”

"But..."

"No, but," the emperor said majestically: "Zhiying, you are still young now, you can't ask for immortals all your life, and when Shaohua passes away in the future, you can only sigh in the air, if you live in the present, the husband and wife will be perfect in the future, and the descendants will be around the knee is the right way." ”

Zhiying was dumbfounded by these words. She grew up in Biyou Mountain since she was a child, and she learned martial arts every day, and she didn't have any ideas about the things next to her, if she hadn't met Lingjun a few months ago and shared hardships and hardships, she didn't even know much about the word "love", and now she was let be the county lord, it's really...

Ling Jun and Zhijie glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes, but it was inconvenient to ask at the moment, so they could only put it aside before discussing it.

The three of them were arranged to live in the palace, and under Zhiying's repeated insistence, they were finally able to live with Ling Jun.

"Your Majesty is so strange, we help him solve the trouble, why do you have to make me the county lord?"

"This matter will be discussed later, let's think about how to solve Concubine An's matter first. Zhijie said with a headache. If he knew that it was so troublesome, he shouldn't have agreed at the time, he really regretted not doing it at the beginning.

"Concubine An doesn't even know who did it, how should we check, should we find the queen first or the concubines who had a holiday with her first?" asked Zhiying.

"The queen is the head of the harem, we should still start here and see if we can ask anything. Ling Jun said.

Zhijie also agreed, "Yes, the queen should have a certain understanding of each concubine, since this is the case, then we will go to see the queen tomorrow." ”

The next day, the three of them came to the queen's dormitory, Yukun Palace, the queen was leisurely arranging flowers, and they didn't react much when they saw them, which was somewhat unexpected.

The queen is no longer young, but her atmosphere is calm and unfazed, which is incomparable to other young concubines. The current Concubine An can be said to be unique, but compared to the queen, it is still a lot worse.

"The palace knows a little bit about your intentions. The queen put down the work in her hand, wiped her hands, and leaned on the pillow gracefully, "Although this palace is a successor, but I dare not forget my responsibility at any time, and now that such a thing has happened, this palace is deeply saddened." Concubine An was just a five-grade talent, her appearance was beautiful, and she had some talents, but she was not in contention with the world, and she was not pleased with His Majesty, so she was a little depressed, and later made a mistake and was punished in the cold palace, probably also disheartened, and chose to break herself, as for later, I don't need to say that everyone is also clear. In a few words, the queen told Concubine An's experience of entering the palace for several years, and there was nothing special in it.
