Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Man Behind the Scenes
"Back to my lord, the slave really doesn't know." Qin Zixin looked at Xue Lingxiao uneasily, would he believe it?
"It turns out that you really don't know, you have to wait for a while in this palace."
Su Xue'er walked in in a navy blue moire dress and a phoenix crown, her delicate face and bright eyes full of smiles. Qin Zixin and Zhou Ping looked at Xue Lingxiao inexplicably.
"Aifei, what are you?"
Xue Lingxiao also looked at her with a puzzled expression, this outfit was only qualified to be worn by the queen of the main palace. What's wrong with Xue'er today, although she has plans to make her queen, why is she dressed like this before the holy decree?
"Your Majesty, can't you see it? Xue'er is going to be a queen! Su Xue'er rushed towards Xue Lingxiao, and a silver dagger sank into Xue Lingxiao's abdomen.
"You!" Xue Lingxiao looked at the suddenly unfamiliar woman in front of her in amazement.
"Su Xue'er, you dare to assassinate the emperor! Someone came to arrest Su Xue'er! Zhou Ping slapped Su Xue'er to the ground with one palm.
"Your Majesty, how are you?" Qin Zixin ran over and helped Xue Lingxiao.
"Hehe, you are shouting, look who you can still shout." Su Xue'er waved her hand, and a group of guards rushed in and pressed Zhou Ping to the ground and tied him up.
"Su Xue'er, do you know what you're doing?" Qin Zixin shouted while helping Xue Lingxiao.
"Of course Hongu knows what he's doing. Qin Zixin, I have good news for you, the people of Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion were killed as soon as they arrived at the border. It's a pity that your damn brother Yue Wuchen escaped. ”
Su Xue'er sat on the Taishi chair beside her, her eyes full of sarcasm.
"What do you say! You're lying! Su Xue'er, your father doesn't have such a big shili, I won't believe you! Qin Zixin forced her composure and said, maybe she was just bluffing to scare herself.
"Why should I lie to you? My dad doesn't have such a big shili, and he has the third prince, why, don't believe it? Su Xueer tasted the tea in the cup, anyway, the overall situation has been decided, so I will play with them.
"Is it Xue Lingjing? You tell me what's going on! Qin Zixin had just received the news of her family's survival from Xue Lingxiao, and before she could rejoice, her happiness was shattered.
"Miss Qin, don't act rashly." Xue Lingxiao grabbed Qin Zixin, who was about to get up.
"Still don't understand? It was your father who was too loyal to Xue Lingxiao who blocked the way of the third prince, do you understand? As the emperor's right-hand man, the Prime Minister's Mansion must be destroyed! And he had to borrow the emperor's hand to destroy it himself, who knew that the emperor would secretly come to such a hand. Su Xue'er looked at Xue Lingxiao.
"Not only did he find a substitute ghost for Qin Huai from the Heavenly Prison, but he also arranged for the Fifth Prince to personally escort the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the frontier, so we had to go to the frontier to do it again." Su Xue'er raised her chin lightly and looked at Xue Lingxiao defiantly.
"Su Xue'er, it turned out to be you, it was you and Xue Lingjing." Qin Zixin sat on the ground dejectedly, it turned out that the emperor had always been on his father's side, and his father's judgment was also right. "Niangniang, the third prince is almost starting to act." Hearing the palace maid's words, Su Xue'er smiled.
"You are plotting rebellion, and you are going to punish the Nine Clans!" Qin Zixin ignored Xue Lingxiao's stop and said angrily.
"Hehe, then the emperor should also be counted in it." Su Xue'er looked at Xue Lingxiao, whose face was getting paler and paler, and said.
"Su Xue'er, do you know how much the emperor loves you! How can you do that! Qin Zixin grabbed Su Xue'er's hand.
"You let go of the mother!" Several guards walked over.
"Stand down!" Su Xue'er snorted softly.
"Love me? It's really funny, he knew that the person I loved was the third prince, but he forcibly named me the imperial concubine, this is love? Su Xueer shouted.
"You're wrong, the emperor knew that you had drugged your meal, but he still drank it without hesitation, doesn't that count?" Qin Zixin let go of Su Xue'er's sleeve and looked at Xue Lingxiao.
"If I guess correctly, I will obviously condemn Prime Minister Zuo and send me to the cold palace to prove the emperor's love for you, right?" Qin Zixin stared at Xue Lingxiao's eyes with tears in his eyes, only to see that he did not dodge, but there was a hint of shame.
"Shut up! What do you know? Someone will lock up this side hall for me and burn it down! Su Xue'er pushed Qin Zixin to the ground and took a cadre of people away.
"Su Xue'er, you can't do this! Do you hear it, you quickly open the door! Qin Zixin got up, but saw that the door had been locked.
"Your Majesty! Miss Qin, quickly untie my rope. Qin Zixin heard Zhou Ping's shout, and when she turned around, she saw that Xue Lingxiao had already begun to look in a trance.
"Your Majesty, don't sleep." Qin Zixin untied the rope that bound Zhou Ping, and ran to Xue Lingxiao's side and patted him on the face.
"Lord Zhou, you can see if there is a way out, I will help the emperor stop the bleeding first." Qin Zixin took off his coat, tore off his sleeves and folded them into squares, and then tore the sheets into strips and put them beside Xue Lingxiao.
