Chapter 58: A Deliberate Counterattack (7)
She asked Cen Er to be supported by Si Qingge from left to right, her face was still pale, her eyes were a little haggard, and she looked like a sick beauty.
"The concubines see the emperor." She was just about to salute, but before her legs could bend down, she was held up by Miyazawa-kun.
"You're not in good health, what are you going to do now, beware of being hit by the wind again and having a headache at night."
Mo Ran didn't really want to kneel on him, and stood up straight.
"I'm fine, I'm here to see."
Come and see? What to see, to see the court concubine defend herself? Or do you want to see how the emperor punished the court concubine severely? Or did he come to see the emperor to avoid him from protecting the court concubine?
Everyone has their own thoughts.
But Miyazawa Kun didn't think about it so much, took off the cloak on his body and put it on Mo Ran's body.
"Weichen see Concubine Li."
Among so many people, Mei Liangyu was the only one who remembered that Li wanted to salute her, and his greeting brought everyone's thoughts back to the matter of the court concubine.
"Your Majesty, since Concubine Li is here, I have to give an explanation to my mother." He went on to say.
Miyazawa Kun looked at Mo Ran's already weak body, because he was poisoned, he was even weaker at this time, and the slender hand hidden under the cloak was also cold and piercing, and it was even more distressing that he didn't come.
"I'll do you justice."
Mei Liangyu seemed to be very satisfied with his answer, turned to face the court concubine, and said, "Niangniang, you can see this tree, there is no problem, didn't you say that you saw it with your own eyes?" ”
"Bengong, Bengong ......" Now she really has nothing to say.
"Vicious woman! I dare to murder Concubine Li under my nose! Miyazawa Kun said this fiercely, and the frightened court concubine collapsed to the ground with a weak leg.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the concubines are just a momentary ghost, Your Majesty!"
"Concubine, concubine didn't poison concubine, concubine didn't! The concubine put croton in the wine, it was croton, and the concubine just wanted Concubine Li to suffer, but she didn't think that she really wanted to kill her! ”
She was right, according to her original plan, the snow toad poison would only make Mo Ran infertile for life, and would not endanger her life, to say that this Nanqi poison really has nothing to do with her.
"At this time, he is still talking nonsense! Concubine Li took a trip to the Ghost Gate yesterday and almost returned to the West Heaven, you poisonous woman still said that it was just Croton?! ”
"Really, really! Your Majesty, the concubines are not so ruthless, and the concubines swear by Qi'er that the concubines definitely have no intention of killing the concubines! ”
Miyazawa Kun didn't believe her oath, but her words reminded him, and also reminded everyone present that she had a son, the only prince of Northern Xia now.
It's not a pity that Concubine Ting's death is no longer useful to the He family now, and the He family will not openly oppose the court for an abandoned son, but the child is different, she is dead, and no one can replace her mother's place.
He Huai's originally extinguished heart ignited a glimmer of hope again, "Your Majesty, the court concubine Niangniang has a kind heart, is gentle and kind, and will not do such a thing that harms people's lives, this matter must have been taken advantage of Niangniang, replaced Croton, and tried to kill Concubine Liniang!" ”
Miyazawa Kun, who originally wanted to order the execution of the court concubine, also meditated at this time.
He originally had a guilty heart for Concubine Ting, and the person who didn't want to poison was Concubine Ting, but when the facts were found out, he would definitely give Mo Ran an explanation, but Concubine Tingfei insisted that she had not been poisoned by Nanqi, and He Huai also said so.
He still wants to keep Concubine Ting's life, after all, there is still Qi'er.
Seeing that he was silent, Mo Ran's hands hidden under the cloak were tightly clenched together.
"Miyazawa-kun, why don't you spare her the death penalty, and let her raise Qi'er to grow up."
Everyone present was a little surprised by her words, first, she actually called the emperor's name, and second, she actually interceded for the court concubine.
Only Mei Liangyu shook her head gently in the crowd.
"Ran'er, do you really think so?"
Although Miyazawa Kun has decided not to execute the court concubine, he still feels a little guilty and weak when he hears her say this.
"Let her live until Qi'er grows up, and then let her forgive her sins for what she has done, after all, Qi'er is still young and can't do without her mother."
This is half-true, but at least Mo Ran has expressed his attitude.
Today, these ministers watched a royal farce, and it ended with a sigh.
"Ran'er, I have wronged you in today's affairs." Miyazawa Kun is still guilty, yesterday he also said that he would give her an explanation, and today he broke his promise.
"I know, it's not easy for you." The He family was so easy to bring down, but she had to wait.
He Huai was still below, looking at their picture of partridges, he only felt a wave of anger in his heart, and he didn't have a good tone when he spoke.
"Now that the matter has been discussed, the minister will retire first!" After speaking, without waiting for Miyazawa Kun to respond, he went directly out of the courtyard of the study, making the ministers look in a cold sweat, for fear that his actions would anger the emperor.
Fortunately, Miyazawa Kun didn't bother with him, nor did he implicate others, so he directly let them go back.
"Let's disperse, and come back tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Weichen retired."
Mei Liangyu was the last to go, and he looked at Mo Ran for a long time before looking away, not knowing whether it was pity or pity. Mo Ran met his eyes coldly, his heart palpitated, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his mind.
"Ran'er, let's go inside, it's cool here." It was Miyazawa-kun's words that pulled her back.
"Yes." She whispered yes, but her thoughts drifted to two hours ago.
In the Qingli Palace two hours ago, Mei Liangyu came to Mo Ran with the results she had found.
"Niangniang, the person who poisoned her is the court concubine, and the minister has found conclusive evidence of her." He had wanted to be the first to tell her to comfort her heart, but he didn't want to hear a piece of news that shocked him even more.
The news was so heavy that he didn't say anything.
"Mother is saying that you took the poison yourself?" Could it be that Mo Ran also began to compete for favor like those women in the harem?
"Yes, Brother Mei, the poison I drank myself, and the medicine under Concubine Ting's medicine is far from enough to make me like that."
These words made his heart go back a little, but Concubine Tingting was really drugged, but Mo Ran lost 800 self-inflicted injuries and injured 1,000 enemies like this, is it really worth it?
"Why did the mother tell the minister?" Shouldn't such a thing be rotten in the stomach and not let others know, once others know, let alone deal with the court concubine, Mo Ran himself will not be able to eat and walk around.
Mo Ran sat aside very dejectedly and said, "I don't know...... But I always feel that I did something wrong, Brother Mei, am I a bad woman, how can I do this......"
The indescribable loneliness in his tone, he felt that he understood.
It's like when he killed the first person in the tribe, his classmate and friend wanted to kill him instead, so he stabbed the knife mercilessly, and the blood flowed all over the ground.
Long after, it was his nightmare.
But if you don't kill him, he will kill you, and he will not do this.
"Niangniang didn't do anything wrong, Niangniang did it right, but this matter is too dangerous." These words were not to comfort Mo Ran, but after he heard her say what kind of medicine Concubine Ting gave her, he had the heart to break her body into thousands of pieces.
"So I'm afraid, I'm afraid that things will fail, and I'm afraid that things will succeed." In the end, Mo Ran is still soft-hearted, even if he knows what Concubine Ting has done.
"Did Niang Niang mean to harm her?" Mei Liangyu asked suddenly.
"Huh?" She was stunned when asked, "How come, I'm just, just ......" What is it, in the way of others, to return the body of others.
"Niangniang is not a heart, it can only be said that the court concubine has suffered the evil consequences by herself, and it has nothing to do with Niangniang."
"Brother Mei, will that Qi'er be affected by her?" After all, he is still a child and has just been born, and the grievances and grievances in this harem have nothing to do with him.
"Don't worry, the ministers will try their best to protect the prince, besides, the tiger poison does not eat the child, and the court concubine will not pull her child into the water." Mei Liangyu's mind flashed, but the figure of the child was expressionless.
Mo Ran nodded, she didn't want to implicate innocent people, just let her bear the fault of Concubine Ting.
"Niangniang, you have a good rest in Qingli Palace, leave the rest of the things to the minister, and Niangniang can wait for the news of the minister in the palace."
Of course, he was not only referring to the poisoning of the court concubine, but also .......
"Niangniang's body is not well, let's go back and rest, the minister can go out by himself, don't bother Niangniang." Seeing that Mo Ran was about to get up and come out to see him off, he stretched out his hand to stop her.
"Brother Mei has helped me so much, it's just a small thing."
Mei Liangyu was not honored that she refused, grabbed her shoulders with both hands and pressed her to the stool, staring at her misty eyes.
Seeing the blush on Mo Ran's face, he realized that his movements were really a little out of line, and immediately let go of his hand.
"Take care, the minister has taken his leave." He suppressed his voice, not wanting her to hear that something was wrong with him.
"Well, Brother Mei go slowly." In comparison, Mo Ran's expression was much more normal.
Mo Ran saw him leave and wanted to go out and call Cen Er in, but as soon as he got up, he saw that Fang Cai's person had gone and returned.
"Brother Mei, why are you ...... again?"
Mei Liangyu didn't care about her surprised look, and interrupted her before she could finish.
"After that, leave such things to the ministers." You don't deserve to have those bloody things on your hands.
Mo Ran raised his head suddenly, not understanding what he meant by saying this suddenly, thinking about his words.
"Brother Mei, you ......" was originally said by Si Qingge, she didn't think that other people would say the same to her.
"The minister doesn't ask the reason for the mother, as long as one day, the mother speaks, the minister will never give up, the mother just needs to remember this sentence."
It is rare for him to say such a thing, he is cautious on weekdays, and every word he says has to be scrutinized, but this sentence is said by him from his heart, without scrutiny.
As soon as he went out, he felt like something was missing in his heart, and those words had been on his lips a few times before, and he really couldn't help but say them today.
Maybe he'd never say anything like that again, so he thought she'd remember.
"Brother Mei, thank you."
"You're welcome."
Thou art the seven drops of blood in my heart, and the joy of my heart, which I keep from being known.
So, no thanks.
