Yun Xi stood in the main hall of the master bedroom of the left mansion, with a small courtyard and a side corridor outside. Zuo Hanqing looked at the dark sky outside beside him, and someone came to report after a while, Mrs. Dao was back.

Sent away, Zuo Hanqing glanced at the emperor: "Your Majesty, it's time to drive back to the palace!" ”

Yun Xi stared at him: "If Ming'er doesn't work, or if this matter goes out with a little wind, I will only take your family." ”

"How dare Wechen?" Zuo Hanqing bowed, "Wechen's family is willing to be a saint dog and horse, the saint has the grace of reinvention for Wechen, and the mother also has the grace of caring for Wechen." If the death of a micro-minister is not enough to repay the event, how can he do that little disloyalty and injustice? No one else knows about this matter except for the cheap, and the emperor can rest assured. Back then, Weichen was ordered by the emperor to be on the edge of the town, and he also saw a lot of these. Ouchi orthodoxy, how can you know this? It was the seven insects and seven flowers at the beginning, and they didn't know it all. But it's also a little bit cheaper! It's just that the emperor acted so suddenly, and he didn't inform him in advance, for fear that the mother would ...... when the time came."

"Your wife doesn't hide anything from you?" Yun Xi looked at him sideways when he heard this, with an extremely strange expression.

Zuo Hanqing was so frightened that she knelt on the ground when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "The emperor forgives the sin, it's not about the cheap matter, it's Weichen's broken mouth that always asks her!" ”

"I didn't say anything. Actually, that one is secondary, just to be sure. Yun Xi looked at the night sky outside again, "I never doubt her response. You just need to save her life first, but you have to hurry, don't let that Lin Kang escape! ”

"Please rest assured, even if he has three heads and six arms, Weichen will definitely arrest him!" Zuo Hanqing hurriedly responded, "Weichen will never fail to live up to the grace of the saint!" ”

Yun Xi squinted his eyes, it was a well-known thing that he came to Zuofu today, and he made it clear to the Queen Mother at noon that it was not strange that he sometimes went to the Mansion of Heavy Ministers. Moreover, Zuo Hanqing has made meritorious contributions all the way, and in addition to Zuo Hanqing, he has a lot of experience in foreign exercises, and his family collection of martial arts books is very rich. When the emperor toured the south, he listened to him and had a look, after the accident of the concubine, the emperor was in a very bad mood, and at the end of March, Zuo Hanqing took the opportunity to always respectfully invite the holy driver.

Yesterday, Zuo Hanqing mentioned it again, and the Queen Mother took the initiative to say that it would be good to let the emperor go out for a walk. Anyway, in the Imperial City of Beijing, it is not a big deal for the emperor to go out for a walk. So today, after the emperor finished taking care of the affairs of the court, he led Pang Xin and Wang Chenghai out of the palace to Zuofu.

As for Zuo Hanqing's wife, she has a fate, and she should have entered the palace to serve the Queen Mother at the beginning of each month. However, because of her notoriety, the Queen Mother also heard about it, so she simply didn't see her. Later, the blue double pool did not enter the palace, and the queen mother did not ask, just as there was no such person! At the beginning of April, the Queen Mother was so angry that she was not in good health because of this incident, and all the women asked for peace and service, and they had a lot of contacts. Lan Shuangchi led the order into the palace, and very few people from all the doors saw her. But Mrs. Zuo's reputation is outside, the Queen Mother has heard of her name, how can she be happy to see this person, I heard that she came to say hello and ignored it, Lan Shuangchi kowtowed outside the Shouchun Palace. The one who went out was a stand-in, her face was raw, and no one recognized her when she changed her clothes.

On the fifth day of the first month, he followed Chen Huaide and others into the Hui Palace to cook, after Mo Chengyong let the emperor kick him, he was afraid that the emperor would be annoyed and beat him, and because of the queen mother's orders, he was not very close to the body of the scarlet heart, so he had to give someone a handle. In addition, the emperor often comes, and he always relies on Wang, Chen and the servants in his palace to serve. So within a few days, Scarlet Heart naturally became the person brought by Qianyuan Palace. And so it goes, and the rest falls into place.

He never doubted Scarlet's response, and they understood each other with just one action. In this way, she only looks at tomorrow, and she can enter the game herself for the sake of loyalty. Then now, it's time to re-enter his game for the sake of sincerity!

There is no disgrief when this man is about to die, and the same is true of scarlet heart. If you rely on a fierce courage, you can also get a good time. But she still has to think about things in a very short time!

She only felt a wisp of soul wandering, as if she was returning again. The pain of paralysis in the tiger's mouth for a while, she endured it, her throat moved twice, and after a while, she let out a gentle "uh" sound.

When I raised my eyes, I saw the Queen Mother sitting on the edge of the bed. Roll up your sleeves and look at her with a gloomy face! Scarlet looked at her in a daze for a long time, and suddenly raised her lips and smiled: "Mother-in-law of the Queen Mother!" ”

As soon as she spoke, Ruan Xinghua was shocked, and the tone turned seven times and eight turns, and it actually brought a Huai'an accent! The scarlet heart has always been the official dialect of the correct tone, Jintai has an example, for example, all officials must learn the official dialect, otherwise the southern and northern tones are strange, and it will not become an individual. Le Zhenglonely got out of business after three years in Jintai, and has been strictly controlling his family since then. entered the palace with a scarlet heart, and never brought out a little southern language, how can it be ...... now Looking at her expression again, her eyes were cloudy, and it was a little brighter than the deep convergence!

Xinghua turned his head to look at Yun Xi beside him, and saw that his eyes were red like bloody tears, and he kept staring at the purple strangulation marks on Scarlet Heart's neck! I had mixed feelings in my heart for a while, and she didn't have the impulse to kill Scarlet Heart!

She didn't want to investigate this case a few days ago, but she really turned over too many old accounts from her father! Although all kinds of evidence show that the concubine did hook up with the foreign ministers, and she had the most collusion with the Lin family. But those who were reported by Chang Fu Xiuling before were untenable. What the Queen Mother has always wondered about is why the concubine hastily confessed her guilt. The concubine is so hanging, I came to see her masterpiece again today, and the Queen Mother really understands everything!

Before, he said that the concubine was sick and asked the imperial doctor to consult, but in fact, it was just a matter of talking, and he didn't really let the imperial doctor come. But last night, Mo Chengyong suddenly came to report, and the Dao Guifei suddenly hung the beam! The emperor went to Zuofu yesterday, but as soon as he left, something happened! Originally, the Queen Mother was very uneasy in the past two days, she led Lin Xiao's wife in according to the emperor's wishes, but she didn't expect that Lin Xueqing would be so fast, and she couldn't sit still immediately, so she asked Mo Chengyong and Chen Huaide to take more care of her early in the morning!

The queen mother announced that the imperial doctor went to see, and then waited for the emperor to come back and cried to the emperor. turned out to be another muffled thunder, and the concubine was a little weird, as if she was hypothetical!

The Queen Mother panicked, and in the morning, the two came to see together. At that time, the concubine was hanging from the beam, and the Hui Palace was in chaos. They were all busy saving people and didn't care about anything else, and in the morning, Mo Chengyong saw a piece of paper under the corner of the table, and when he picked it up, it was actually a masterpiece left by the concubine. Hurriedly presented it to the two of them. When I saw that the queen mother understood everything, the emperor couldn't stand it, and when she was about to fall, the whole person was about to faint!

The queen mother's heart was fried and roasted in pain, and these emperors were so hard to rest every day. How many incidents are involved in an old feud? Da Sima's old accounts are inextricably linked, and if he really wants to calculate it, he is afraid that he will be wiped out. The Queen Mother is afraid and regretful, and this letter makes it even more difficult for the Queen Mother to deal with herself! But I never thought that she was a person with this heart!

Now that she woke up, the whole person was demented, and one mouth was out of the southern cavity? What face does Xinghua have to face the emperor again!

"Do you remember where this is?" The Queen Mother looked at Scarlet Heart and spoke softly.

"Remember, Mother-in-law!" Scarlet listened to her words and laughed again, "Hui Gong, right?" ”

The Queen Mother took a slight breath, got up for a while, and moved the screen to block the bedside. After looking at the emperor, the two of them went out together, stretched out their hands and summoned a few imperial doctors: "Why does the concubine look like this now?" ”

"The concubine's pulse is not smooth, she has phlegm obsession, her qi and blood are weak, her diet can't melt phlegm, and she can't melt phlegm......" Imperial Doctor Feng knelt on the ground and just said halfway, and the Queen Mother was already impatient: "Which one made you memorize these medicine scriptures?" Say what matters most. ”

"According to Weichen's humble opinion, I'm afraid it's a disease of delusion and phlegm!" Doctor Meng on the side hurriedly whispered, "The concubine is in pain and has come to her senses, but she is conscious. There is no madness and confusion. I'm afraid that it is because of the acute pain, and it is sluggish for a while. This symptom is not easy to grasp, so I have to take the injection first, take a few doses and then see. ”

"Maybe it's good? I still have something to say to her. Yun Xi became more and more impatient, and looked anxious.

"This ......"

The Queen Mother saw that several old vegetables and melon seeds were all embarrassed, and she was about to speak, but suddenly heard a noise inside. Yun Xi frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

After a while, Wang Chenghai came over and wiped his sweat: "Niangniang is hungry and wants to eat soup and vegetables!" ”

The Queen Mother was dizzy when she heard it, and she hadn't been born for a day in the past half a month. I didn't dare to look at the emperor's expression anymore, and I cried when I thought about it!

The emperor was busy comforting here, and his head was full of bags, which made this bunch of things mess around. After blasting the imperial doctor out of the ground, he said: "The queen mother must take care of her body, don't get sick again, it's ......"

"It's the mourning family who can't understand your heart, even she knows this when she has been in the palace for five years. It's that the mourning family has been dependent on you for 20 years, but you can't understand it! She recognized it so quickly, because she didn't want to cause the mother and son to be separated anymore, and she also took care of the dignity of the mourning family. The mourning family is almost fifty years old, and most of his life has been in the palace, and he has seen many storms and waves. But because of the resentment at this moment, the emperor was embarrassed inside and out! The Queen Mother couldn't cry and took his hand, "Now it doesn't matter if it's Lin Xiao, the concubine, or the two conspire!" The mourning family is just very uncomfortable! ”

The concubine's suicide note detailed the original story, because her family was slow in Huai'an, so she always wanted to encircle the ministers to find support. But Da Sima disdained to associate with him, and everyone was forced by Da Sima not to make any changes. Even Lin Xiao, who had received her favor, was powerless to help her at that time. She did have hatred because of this, and wanted to take advantage of the most-for-tat opportunity between the emperor and Da Sima to get rid of Da Sima! She took a fancy to Lin Xiao because Lin Xiao and Da Sima had always been at odds. In her early years, her family was engaged in business in various places, so she knew a lot about people in the rivers and lakes. She is willing to let her family build a bridge and let Lin Xiao go to the handover. But Lin Xiao refused to respond, she was unwilling, so she repeatedly asked Lin Xiao for silver.

After Da Sima died violently, she thought that Lin Xiao should not do it in the open, so she secretly did it, so she took the opportunity of promotion to ask Lin Xiao for payment, and Lin Xiao really paid her. Later, she enjoyed the money, Lin Xiao was given a high position, and the two had no contact.

But as she and the emperor have a deep relationship every day, she is also afraid that this incident will affect the relationship between the two. wants to control the harem by rectifying the bureau, and from now on, her serious discrepancies in income and expenditure will not be leaked. After the emperor's southern tour, the two of them have a deeper relationship, although she is in the deep palace, she also knows that the world is difficult to control. I regret very much that I took advantage of my high position to ask for a huge amount of money. In March, Mo Chengyong searched the palace to get evidence, she knew that the East Window incident had happened, and she had the intention to recruit Lin Xiao, but she had a lot of correspondence with Lin Xiao that day, and she was afraid that it would involve the Huai'an family again. didn't want to implicate others anymore, so he simply ordered Chang Fu and Xiuling to denounce the Queen Mother and confess their guilt at the same time! Later, because the emperor was unwilling to give up due to the emperor's careful investigation, he felt more and more ashamed of the emperor's grace, and now he vomited everything he knew, and was willing to die to save the royal face. The family was far away in Huai'an and didn't know about it, and only begged the emperor to protect his family's reputation!

If this masterpiece had been a few days earlier, the Queen Mother would not have believed it at all. But now that things have been investigated, her previous evidence is full of loopholes. And Chang Fu and Xiuling, the two key figures, are always inconsistent and suspicious when they ask questions. At that time, the Queen Mother was furious, where did she think so much. Now that I think about it, this Changfu and Xiuling have both entered the palace since childhood, and they should have known for many years in the palace that once the master is defeated, it will be difficult for the slave to escape. How did you get so excited?

The concubine thought that it was really possible to take Lin Xiao's pigtail and be greedy for money from Lin Xiao. But she is a harem woman, no matter how careful the layout is, what kind of character is Da Sima, where can she kill when she says it? After checking for so long, my father's past is full of ironclad evidence, and more than 100 human witnesses have been involved. It's even more outrageous than the concubine's behavior! Even though the concubine is greedy and hateful, she is also driven crazy and stupid at this time. She has only been in the palace for five years, and she also understands that this kind of thing is not clean, and she is willing to save her family if she dies, so it is better to be loyal to the emperor! But it's her Ruan Xinghua, who has been the queen mother for nearly 20 years, but she doesn't understand the truth that the dust has returned and it is useless to dig again.

The more Xinghua thinks about it, the more ashamed he becomes, and the more he thinks about it, the more he regrets it. For the sake of their Ruan family, the emperor has already done his best, but she still has shortcomings, and now she is a mess of her father. The more she thought about it, the more ashamed she became, the more she thought about it, the more she felt pain, and the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. It was right that the emperor didn't check back then, and if he didn't check, he didn't indulge the real murderer, he simply ensured that Sima was clean!

hated that Lin Xueqing, and was jealous and poisonous for a while, regardless of the family's life, he poked out the silver two. Now she wants to force the concubine to death to protect her whole family! If it wasn't for Lin Xueqing, a fool, how could she Ruan Xinghua be connected to Ruan Danqing's matter again?

What a deep love the emperor had with the concubine when he toured the south, and now he is forcing people to this role, so how can the emperor's love be embarrassing?

Xinghua sat in the main hall of Shouchun Palace, driving away unrelated people and others. Yun Xi, who was sitting on the side, had a pale face, and Xue Qing, who was kneeling on the ground, had tears on his face! Xinghua looked at Yunxi's cold-eyed appearance, and her heart ached, and even the corners of her lips twitched slightly!

During these days, life tossed their mother and son to the point of no peace. Xinghua sat in the middle palace during the period of the first emperor, and there were many concubines of the first emperor, but it was not as troublesome and heartbreaking as it is now. She entered the Hengyong Forbidden Palace when she was less than sixteen years old, when the first emperor was still in the East Palace, after the first emperor ascended the throne, a large number of beauties filled the palace, and as soon as the concubine entered the palace, it was the beginning of her Ruan Xinghua pepper room. The first emperor favored Concubine Shu alone, why didn't she feel pain at that time, and why didn't she hate? She entered the palace at a young age, devoted herself wholeheartedly to the royal family, paid how much blood and sweat for the harem, and poured her tenderness into the first emperor, but it was difficult to resist the beauty of the concubine!

The first emperor once wanted to abolish her and set up Concubine Shu as the queen, but fortunately, she had no loss of morality, and the Ruan family was behind her, so she barely managed to maintain her status! Since then, she has also been disheartened. Concubine Shu can only live in the favor of the first emperor, fragile as a greenhouse delicate flower. The harem is colorful, how can the first emperor be long-lasting? Concubine Shu was later depressed, and she died in the palace less than two years after giving birth to Yunxi.

Yun Xi was the youngest son of the first emperor, who was getting sick and faint at that time, and the court was in turmoil. The kings are fighting for the position of the crown prince, how can anyone take care of this little child! It was she who raised Yun Xi in the Zhuxin Palace regardless of her previous suspicions. Of course, she has her plans, but there is also warmth in them. This child became her most powerful weapon, and she knew at that time that only Fu Yunxi was on top. She can keep the glory of the Ruan family! She has no children, a childless queen mother, no prince can ascend the throne to respect her like Yun Xi, who was raised by herself!

Moreover, at that time, some older and meritorious princes, such as Yun Xi's eldest brother and second brother, had always been at odds with the Ruan family, and they had the right to trick people. If any of them were in power, where would they take her, a childless widow, into account? But at that time, it was difficult for those two to succeed. After all, they are adults, and everyone's eyes are on them.

At that time, the situation was chaotic, and the two of them were not elders, and the other was not sisters, and it was difficult to suppress the crowd when the DPRK and China were opposed. It was she who knew the benefits and the stakes, and maneuvered around them, so that instead of fighting for the court and losing both, it was better to retreat and turn their heads to support their younger brother! Supporting Yun Xi, at least their mother's compatriots, is more beneficial to them than other brothers, and even some of the younger brothers of the first emperor. With the support of the two kings, coupled with the power of the Ruan family, Yun Xi, who was less than seven years old, ascended to the throne.

If back then, she only remembered her personal grievances, and only remembered the many injuries that the love enemy of Concubine Shu had done to her, how could she have where she is today?

In the palace, power and emotion cannot be separated. It's not enough to be affectionate or just understand scheming! She and Yunxi can be said to use each other. But the mother-son relationship between them must not be overlooked.

She hadn't thought about these past events for a long time, but now she was all hooked up again. That's how it is in the palace, and everyone comes here like this. Which is more pitiful than the other? That Lin Xueqing has only been in the palace for two years, and in the first year, she was infinitely beautiful, and she began to make waves when she was slightly dissatisfied. is so stupid and jealous, and Xinghua is now making such a scene with her. I have to dig out those past that made the emperor embarrassed, and almost ruined her hard-working business for more than 20 years!

In the past, Xinghua has always felt that although his father is dedicated, he is at least loyal. He has great military achievements and even more merits to assist the emperor, the emperor should not be so ruthless and let his father die in vain. But now after investigation, I know that my father really has no objection, but what he did is not tolerated by the royal family at all, and the crime of exterminating the clan in the sole hegemony is not exaggerated. The emperor didn't check, it wasn't that he was ruthless, it was he who cared about the mother-son relationship with her! The palace is not a river and lake, where can I be happy to have revenge? How many grievances and grievances are simply insignificant. The concubine pleaded guilty at the time, because she was afraid that it would be difficult to explain that it was too much involved, and in the end, her reputation would be ruined and her family reputation would be affected. is afraid of their mother and son, and then increase the suspicion because of this, it is better for her to bear it alone, and she will die!

It's because she didn't think through this, and she was furious when she saw the concubine confessing her guilt, but she couldn't understand the concubine's thoughts! Lin Xueqing came over last evening and had a quarrel with the concubine, but the concubine hung the beam at night! It is a loss to find it early, otherwise it would not have been saved.

Xinghua became more and more angry, Concubine De, a fool, was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, as soon as her mother entered the palace, she immediately used her means. If you want to come to her Lin family, it won't be clean! Thinking about forcing the concubine to death, this is the end of the matter! She is so bold, she pretended to pass on the holy decree and pretended to be a royal pen, and now she wants to force the concubine to death.

Xue Qing didn't admit it, she only said that it was the emperor's imperial pen, and when she saw that the emperor was missing, she kindly sent it. It was to see the emperor, but who knew that the concubine died that night, when she left, the concubine was fine, everyone saw it, she didn't take anything away, she went straight into the palace and handed it over to Mo Chengyong! She cried as she spoke, and wiped the sentence that Mo Chengyong said that it was the emperor who asked her. only said that she saw the picture of the royal pen in the pavilion, and cried so much that the pear blossom brought rain.

Xinghua sneered in her heart, looking at what she called the "imperial brush": "The painting is expressive, and I don't know which one you are looking for, but it is exactly like life." Xinghua glanced at the emperor, "It's a pity that the emperor was brought up by the mourning family since he was a child, he never knew how to draw figures, he was only good at working on fine buildings, and occasionally painted some landscapes!" This is not only known to the mourning family, but also the close ministers of Wenhua Xinghua, Danqing, and the wife of the two pavilions, which one does not know? If the emperor has such a handiwork, how can there be no ink treasure in Yihua Building? As she spoke, she threw away the painting and glared at Xue Qing with a look of astonishment.

"Don't you believe it? Can the mourning family mix it up here? You are a dignified concubine, in front of the mourning family and the emperor, you can still have red lips and white teeth, open your eyes and talk nonsense, you really lose the face of the great power of the Celestial Empire! Xinghua looked at her expression, she has only been in the palace for more than two years, how can she know this, she thinks it is seamless, but it is full of loopholes.

"You pretended to give her a holy decree, but you gave her Ayako. Mo Chengyong is a minion, dare to search your body? You enter the Hui Palace, disperse the minions, speak ill of her, and force her to ashes! The mourning family has warned the palaces about this matter, and the concubine is seriously ill and cannot visit the palace again. Even if she lives soon, it won't be your turn to rush her life! Xinghua gritted his teeth, "The concubine's collection of 200,000 taels of silver is not clean, and your Lin family is even more unclean!" ”

Xue Qing's brain is booming, the emperor can't draw characters? Unexpectedly, people in the palace said that the emperor couldn't draw characters! He did it on purpose, he drilled her in a cloth sleeve. The concubine will die sooner or later, and he can't save it, so even if she dies, she has to drag one to avenge her!

She couldn't even shed tears, and her brain was booming. Suddenly ringing in my ears, what Scarlet Heart said yesterday, from now on, no one will treat you sincerely! The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, she was not afraid of death, and she did not complain when he condemned her guilt and gave her death. But with this method, he was telling her that she was a complete idiot who was being toyed with!

The emperor and the concubine are the same, one tells her with actions, and the other tells her directly. Her eyes were black, flakes of light. Yesterday, she lied that it was sent by the emperor, but the thing was real, and it was a portrait of the concubine. Even if the emperor knew, he would just scold a few words, and he would never be able to say anything. So today, the Queen Mother passed on to her, and when she learned that the concubine was hanging last night, she was a little surprised, but she was not afraid. But I didn't expect it to be so!

She remembered Scarlet Heart's words, and indeed, Scarlet Heart was right. She's been too smooth since she was a child, so she's stupid! Now it's useless to say anything anyway, no matter how calm she is, no matter how organized her words are. The evidence is that the emperor can't draw characters, this portrait is fake!

What it feels like to be in despair, she has experienced it! She was booming, and suddenly remembered what Scarlet Heart said lastly, and she couldn't help but tremble. As she shook her body, her tears welled up again, and she had endured enough now. In fact, it's too tiring to pretend to be another look, and the concubine can actually pretend to be the former concubine for three years! The more she cried, the more painful it became, and her face was wrinkled, which made the Queen Mother stunned for a moment. No matter how much I cried just now, it was pitiful, but it wasn't like it is now, it was desperate!

"The concubine hates her, and she has always used the concubine. She doesn't treat her concubine sincerely, and the concubine wants to scold her when she is angry! As for the other concubines, I don't know at all! Xue Qing suddenly screamed, "The painting was taken on the pavilion, and the concubines didn't see the emperor's painting, but the emperor looked at it." The emperor spoke coldly to the concubine again, and the concubine was really angry, so she took the painting to her. I thought that I had a story when I saw the minion! Who knew that when she saw her, the concubine felt pitiful for her and didn't scold anything. It was she who grabbed the concubine's ear, and the concubine patted her twice in a hurry. The concubine's ears made her purple, the concubine really didn't take medicine to harm her, she was about to die, what did the concubine mean in harming her again! Woo woo woo ...... "Xue Qingren cried softly, and he couldn't kneel when he fell to the ground.

The Queen Mother was quiet when she saw this, this is the real Lin Xueqing, who doesn't understand scheming and acts indiscriminately just with a fire of jealousy. If you are angry, you will be angry, and if you want to laugh, you will laugh. I want her to be in the palace for two years, and I see her step by step. Even if her father has a plan, he won't tell her everything, so why bother dragging his daughter down again? If Lin Xue knew the truth, how could he dare to report it like this? looked at the emperor for a while: "Looking at her like this, it doesn't look like something you can count on." It's really that the mourning family didn't watch anyone yesterday, and the emperor has no objection to what to do with the mourning family. Now this matter is so messy, the mourning family is old, and I can't care about these thousands of threads anymore! "It's her father who is involved, and the more she investigates, the more painful it becomes. Now I know that the emperor is the only one she relies on.

"Whatever is said, the false proclamation of the decree is true. You go back first, and you can't leave the Laiyin Palace for half a step without my command. Yun Xi looked at Lin Xueqing, snorted coldly, and didn't look at her again.

On April 20, Lin Kang's cronies were arrested and confessed under severe torture. In November last year, Lin Xiao's wife sent a ward to him, saying that Concubine De wanted to pull the concubine off the horse with 200,000 taels of silver the year before. Lin Kang was afraid of being affected, so he entrusted his life not to go to the first month, and then fled with death. admitted that all the money was from Lin Kang's account, but the ticket was handed over to his brother, and he didn't know anything else.

The emperor replied to Lin Xiao and asked him what happened in front of the queen mother. Lin Xiao was extremely afraid, and pointed to the heavens and said that he had never participated in the killing of Da Sima. Lin Xiao admits that he has dealings with the concubine, but he is a foreign minister after all, and his daughter has already entered the palace, so why bother to help the helpless concubine do such a rebellious thing? So I didn't agree at all at that time, but the concubine was kind at the beginning, and he didn't want to be too embarrassed by the concubine's face, just gave some money and did it! Moreover, he has always been known to be incompatible with Da Sima, and Da Sima is the most protective of him and his protégés. Not to mention 200,000 pieces of silver, even one million, it is difficult to move Da Sima.

The Queen Mother listened, Lin Xiao's family is in Beijing, and it is inconvenient for him to do it, but it is very convenient for his brother to do it. His brother is an imperial merchant, and he looks at the royal jade mountain, how much more than one million silver taels are passed over every year? If you are just afraid of 200,000 taels, why do you cheat to death when you hear the news? And if Lin Xiaozhen didn't do anything, then he would be willing to give such a large amount to the concubine?

It can be seen that the suicide note left by the concubine is true, and the concubine is murderous, but Lin Xiao should not have anything to do with her. But then Da Sima died, and the concubine thought that Lin Xiao did it, so she used this to extort money from him! At the beginning, the concubine confessed because she thought that the matter of 200,000 taels could not be explained clearly, and she was afraid of the whole family. Besides, it is still difficult for the emperor to do it after digging deeper, so he simply admitted it himself!

But Lin Kang ran away, and Lin Xiao refused to admit that he was pointing at the heavens and the earth. The suicide note written by the concubine can only be used as circumstantial evidence, after all, the concubine did not see Lin Xiaomai's murder with her own eyes! Besides, after a careful investigation these days, why not Lin Xiao who thinks that Da Sima is dead? There is no evidence, Lin Xiao doesn't admit it now, and there is no way to hand this matter over to the sect for trial, let alone pass through the Beijing Imperial Criminal Division, otherwise my father's reputation will not be saved!

Although it is nine times out of ten that Lin Xiao instructed his brother to do it, it is estimated that there are other officials involved. I'm afraid that once the hall is over, one hundred and eighty people will be brought out, and my father will be angry and resentful at that time. At that time, it will be difficult for the emperor to help her cover up!

If Lin Xiao is only killed, who will take the lead in the emperor's major affairs? If the emperor kills Lin Xiao for her, knowing the inside story, those officials will understand how Lin Xiao died, and then not only will it be difficult for the emperor to respond, but she, the queen mother, is afraid that she will be pointed out by a thousand people! What's more, now that the emperor is suffering for her like this, how can she bear to spoil the emperor's big things!

The concubine has affection for the emperor, and she knows that she sacrificed her ego to protect the overall situation. So why isn't Lin Xiao loyal? Da Sima has repeatedly violated the saint, is dictatorial and dictatorial, and there is nothing that can not be done in public and private except for this traitor.

This matter was not mentioned at all, but Lin Xueqing couldn't tolerate anyone, so he exposed the matter of the concubine receiving money. The concubine also knew that Lin Xiao was getting more and more involved in the end, and there was an obstacle to the court, so she simply admitted it to the queen mother without saying anything. Da Sima is so autocratic, the emperor still takes care of the feelings of the past, and now the concubine is like this, how can the emperor not be in pain! And as the queen mother of the current dynasty, how could she bear to force the emperor to cut off his arm?

Even if Lin Xiao does it, what about it? My father made so many enemies that the world is innumerable. After his father's death, there were few people who were willing to say good things for him. This is an unsolved case, and it was found out that it was the royal family who was injured, and it was the dignity of her Ruan family that was injured, what else could be checked and asked?

Scarlet looked up at Yun Xi, and he didn't see it for several days. He was much haggard, his eyes sunken, and he grew deeper and deeper. He sat bent over by the spice pool, where there were several small pools, and Scarlet Heart was soaking in the medicine pool at this time. The temperature of this small pool is very high, and the work of a while is a sweat in the head.

In the past few days, the marks on her neck have faded a little, but it is still a deep scar of purple and purple blue, which is very shocking to look at. Yun Xi lowered her eyes to wipe her sweat: "The smell of this dried ginger and codonopsis mixed together is not very good." ”

It's been a month, and seeing him running countless times for her worries and suffering, he didn't dare to show too much discomfort when he looked at the heartache. Lying on the side for a while, he answered: "It's sweating happily, maybe it's effective." ”

Yun Xi pursed her lips and smiled: "I didn't tell you what to do before, but your letter is still very appropriate." Now the Queen Mother doesn't want to check anymore, she has been in the harem back then. I just heard about some of the big Sima's domineering, but I don't know the facts! Besides, at that time, the ministers were afraid of Ruan Danqing, where were they willing to tell her too much. But now it is different, Ruan Danqing has all kinds of things, and it can be said that the clan is wiped out. She finally understands now! ”

"This is what the emperor said that day, life is two-sided." Scarlet nodded her head, "The Queen Mother is now also going to protect Ruan Danqing's reputation." ”

"Yes, now that you lead the matter to Lin Xiao's side, he has his own way of dealing with it. If the Queen Mother wants to take revenge, killing the big people in the court is a name, and if she really wants to kill Lin Xiao, I'm afraid that the court will change! Yun Xi touched the top of her head, Lin Kang, Zuo Hanqing had already found it, but it was not handed over to the Queen Mother. Lin Xiao understands best that the future and fate can only be tied to the emperor, not to the queen mother.

Scarlet didn't speak, the Queen Mother must now take care of the emperor. The emperor finally put this case like this, so that the Queen Mother could see the facts clearly, and the Queen Mother herself could not investigate. Although in the past few days, she only cares about pretending to be crazy and stupid, and she doesn't know the situation outside.

But as soon as Lan Shuangchi arrived on April 16, she already understood his methods. The large-scale strict investigation but did not know what to say, which caused the ministers to be frightened. tightly pulled out a bunch of officials to connect with her, so that the queen mother had no way to start, so that there was no need to say it explicitly, and the evidence before the scarlet heart was self-defeating, and Lin Xiao gradually surfaced. As soon as Xue Qing appeared, her heart was about to die, and the Queen Mother was even more thoughtful, and this murder case naturally transitioned to the Lin family. Lin Kang's fraudulent death and escape will only deepen the suspicion of the Queen Mother, how can it be only for 200,000?

Yun Xi wiped her sweat again: "If you want to show loyalty, this loyalty will not only be seen by me!" Now the Queen Mother has also seen it. The evidence of your involvement in the murder of Da Sima is insufficient to cancel it, but your greed for money and entrapment of foreign ministers cannot be canceled. If you guess my intentions, it's just a matter of not mentioning the following. It's just that you have to suffer again! ”

Scarlet shook her head and cried, understanding what he meant, he didn't tell her anything at that time, life was a test for the two of them. But she understands the psychology of the Queen Mother, who can accept her loyalty, but cannot tolerate her dancing power. The harem of the Xuanping Dynasty does not tolerate this kind of woman! The queen mother is now such a strangulation and digging out the liver, and the emperor will do everything to help the queen mother check and take care of her face, and her affection is even deeper. Without the Ruan family, the royal family is the only one that the Queen Mother can rely on. Without the emperor, who can respect her so much? After more than 30 years of ups and downs, how many in-laws she has experienced have been disabled, revenge is secondary, and how to balance is more important!

But after all, he was unwilling, and the murderer was in front of him, but he couldn't deal with it because he was an important minister. But the concubine who danced for personal gain was still in the palace, such a woman was too dangerous, and now the emperor was affectionate to her, if one day the emperor loved someone else, she hated it in her heart, but it was much more harmful than that Lin Xueqing. So once the Queen Mother opens her heart knot and starts thinking about the emperor, she must be strictly guarded against!

But she was stupid, and the Queen Mother couldn't ask her anything anymore, otherwise she really had to ask her where the 200,000 taels was, and she wouldn't be able to explain!

Scarlet sobbed and asked, "What did Lan Shuangchi let me drink at that time?" I didn't even have time to ask. ”

"That's the one who protects the pulse and protects the heart, I'm afraid you won't be able to die if you don't get angry! By the way, it can make your pulse different and help you pretend to be more like! Yun Xi held her hand and trembled a little, "Your body is really unsettling, but I know that you are definitely a person who can do it, just in case ......"

Although she didn't kill Ruan Danqing, she had a plan and kept enveloping foreign ministers. If he doesn't pull out those people, he can't naturally present Ruan Danqing's ironclad evidence of authoritarianism in front of the Queen Mother. But pull it out, then she must be a woman who is extremely dangerous to the royal family in the eyes of the Queen Mother! As he said, people have two sides, and if the Queen Mother has a dislike for him, it will be difficult for the two of them to benefit the imperial power. But if the Queen Mother has nothing to do with him, then as the most noble woman in the harem, the Queen Mother has the responsibility and power to eliminate all those who endanger the imperial power and even the emperor!

The deeper his love for her, the more the Queen Mother felt that her heart was in danger. It's not folk, and it's not like any kind of woman that my son likes. This is the court, the concentration of imperial power! So for the time being, she has to be foolish, so that she loses her sharpness, so the Queen Mother will be relieved.

Scarlet Heart's face was flushed, but he smiled at that embarrassment. Yun Xi reached out and touched her face, feeling that the hour was about the same, he reached out and fished her out of the pool, stood up and paced two steps, and put it in a clear water spring pool on the side. The temperature here is a little lower: "Now you don't have to explain anymore, just settle down and get rid of the root of the disease." If you have a belly fight, and you have another one, then it is foolproof! ”

Scarlet Heart's eyes widened, and he was talking nonsense again. Her belly is not angry, he knows best! He rubbed her face: "So let you treat both inside and outside, cured, where are you afraid that you won't be able to conceive?" ”

"Where's that right?" Scarlet muttered.

"You're so good to give birth to a, just pretend to be stupid." He saw that her whole body was powdery, very tempting, and he wanted to take it out and take a bite.

Scarlet shrank her neck: "The concubine is already pretending, but it's difficult." ”

Yun Xi picked up her hand and saw that the pinholes in her hands were all blue. The problem of delusion is that the meridians are blocked and the blood is lacking, so she has to suffer a few injections these days. She couldn't bear to get pricked, and her hands were always blue and purple, which made him feel so painful that he panicked. For a while, he gritted his teeth: "It's difficult to pretend, you used to pretend to be Ruan Hui, and you pretended to be Ruan Hui for three years, and you looked like you." Now, you continue to pretend to me, pretending to be stupid and stunned for a while. I'm so tired to do this, you don't want to die! Otherwise, I won't keep one of Lezheng's family, so you won't have a good name! ”

There were tears in her eyes, and she nodded without saying a word. Yun Xi stroked her hand and suddenly asked her, "What did you tell Lin Xueqing the day she came?" ”

Scarlet was stunned for a moment and muttered, "I didn't say anything." ”

"Didn't say anything, why did she pretend to be the same as usual all of a sudden?" Yun Xi lowered her eyes and stared at her, "Is it strange that she can have this consciousness by herself?" What the hell did you say? ”

"Still self-contained!" Scarlet moved her eyelashes slightly and lowered her eyes, "At that time, the emperor didn't tell his concubines any news. She suddenly came to see the concubine, and the concubine said a few words to her......"

"Lezheng is scarlet!" Yun Xi glared at her, suddenly called her name, and reached out to pinch her face, "You don't come to arrange me, who does it matter if you die?" Why are you so much going on? ”

Scarlet Heart was pinched by him and grinned, and kept grabbing his fingers: "The concubine can understand the queen mother's heart, if the concubine is changed, he will definitely not want the emperor to be surrounded by people with swords and axes, anyway, ...... in this palace"

He stared into her eyes, "I said that I spent my life with you, didn't you understand?" I thought you would really get into the country after the Southern Tour. But I didn't expect it...... Are you unwilling to grow old with me in the palace, for fear that one day you will follow in the footsteps of others......"

"When a person is about to die, he thinks the most, if he asks the concubine what he regrets the most, he only regrets that when he was in Huainan, he failed to do his best!" She turned her face to look at him, tears falling from her eyes, "The concubine knows that the emperor will definitely save the concubine's family, so there is no need to worry about this." The queen mother will only be in a secret place, and the name of the concubine can be sent! But the most regrettable thing is that I didn't grasp the time of those months! ”

Yun Xi smiled suddenly, her eyes were a little red: "You slap a little less and give a sweet date!" You don't have to regret it, you entered the palace that day for the sake of your family. He looked at her and swept his fingertips over her eyebrows, "Now, it's all for me, right?" ”

As he spoke, he fished her out of the water again, and he was covered in dampness. He didn't care, looked at her dewy eyes, pecked her lips lightly, and pressed them, tasting her softness little by little, remembering her taste. He slowly provoked her response, like the time when she suddenly became curious about his face, gentle as a pool of water, but as thick as an urn of wine.

Scarlet tightened around his neck, following his example in search of a warm entanglement. She went deeper and deeper, more active than him, and it was he who taught her what liking is, what sincerity is, and what love is!

She has never liked or disliked anything, her mother likes it, and her father likes it. Not to mention love or not, she never distinguishes between true and false. But now he has taught her, in many ways, to let her go deep into the bone marrow bit by bit. It hurts when there is love, but it's real!

Yun Xi felt her response, her little tongue swept into his teeth, making him feel like his teeth were also numb. He hugged her tightly and was reluctant to let her go no matter what. He will let her go easily, and he will keep her by his side. He was so tired that he came to life to see a little bit of fruit. If you really want to let her go, Wang Chenghai can do it alone, why do you need this? But how can you keep her away like this? So, he would rather take a harder path.

The two hugged each other, and he reached out to touch her. She's soft and fluffy, and it's hot! Let the Queen Mother see her loyalty, let the Queen Mother see his feelings, and let the Queen Mother know that if he loses this woman, he will die halfway! Now the Queen Mother already knows that the facts are true and false, involving nearly 30 officials, it seems that the concubine is greedy and greedy, but in the future, as the day deepens, the Queen Mother will see that what the concubine wants is a comprehensive grasp of the news, and the plot is secondary. She scattered money in the palace to win people's hearts, not because she wanted to do anything, her first thought was to stay in the palace and keep it. These are indeed true. It is only when he sees this clearly that he is willing to give her absolute trust. Therefore, he also wants the Queen Mother to see clearly!

She thought about it very thoroughly, pretending to be stupid for a while, so that there was no need to mention the matter of dancing power and making money! They will always be the best buddies and understand each other without words!

He knows best what Scarlet Heart is. She is old-fashioned, old-fashioned, has a negative attitude, and is passive in her ways, and he knows all these weaknesses in her character. Later, he always used her weaknesses to force her to change little by little. Whenever she has a little Jinyi, it will always bring him new pleasure. And so on, bit by bit, it was built into his heart.

She is steady, thoughtful, long-term, and decisive in her decision, and he is clear about the advantages of her character, and because he sees her loyalty, he has complete trust in her. He can rest assured by her side, because no matter how scheming, greedy, and powerful she is, he is completely at ease with her. In this world, who can make him completely trust and completely let go of suspicion, she is the only one!

Although Yun Xi is very tired of being so strict with this investigation, he can also do one thing by the way. Recently, he wants to promote a new policy, and it is good to deter the ministers first. As for Lin Xiao, his self-interest and loyalty are in conflict with Da Sima, and he has the closest relationship with the concubine, and it is most suitable for him to be involved in the end. Lin Xiao understands people's hearts, knows how to schem, and has talent and vision. It is true that he has some problems, greed and luxury, so at that time, Yun Xi would let his brother master the Jade Fang, so over the years, Yun Xi knew the benefits from the royal family. If Lin Xiao doesn't cooperate at this time, he will only die a more ugly death. Because his daughter has spoiled his affairs first!

To plan is to understand people's hearts. Scarlet Heart was aware of the Queen Mother's heart at that time, and she quickly confessed her guilt and closed the case quickly. transferred all the hatred to her, abandoned the pawn to protect the handsome, and rebuilt the relationship between the queen mother and the emperor.

And now, he is starting from the other side of the Queen Mother, rather than avenging Ruan Danqing and finding out the real culprit and punishing him, more importantly, she needs to maintain the glory of the Ruan family over the years! Lay out another game on top of the scarlet heart, investigate carefully, peel off layer by layer, and let the Queen Mother deeply understand that under this killing, it is the struggle between imperial power and people's hearts!

At the beginning of December last year, she has been in poor health since she got the fetus, and he has the heart to let her have a good life and recuperate, but he has always pressed her and not touched her. Who would have expected that this incident would happen in March, and on the day he came back, he was anxious, panicked, and in a state of grief, he just wanted her to empathize. Between the forced demands, she almost lost her life in his hands, and he was half happy? Later, I went to the Hui Palace to see her, and at that time, Mo Chengyong and other servants of the Shouchun Palace were also there, and they always refused to be alone with her in order to avoid being honest. It's just beating and scolding here, half for play, half to see her as peace of mind. This month, he can be said to have no time to sleep and eat, and he can't be at peace for a moment. He went around the case in a big circle and got her out of the assassination lawsuit. She cooperated well, and now she pretended to be stupid to avoid this front, so that his heart and liver that had been hanging could be put back a little. The heart is a little calm, and the gentle fragrance and silkiness set off his fire in an instant.

In addition, she is rarely well-behaved at this time, and she no longer makes him grind his teeth in a formal manner, which really makes him more and more bloody. He felt her hand caress around his neck, making his whole body **, and his arms were tightly wrapped around her. She squirmed around his neck, her lips burning, her brain was dizzy, and she didn't unbutton him for a long time. Yun Xi didn't bother to look elsewhere, so she directly put her on the carpet by the pool, and her body was half-propped up and half-covered to look at her red and pink, and the flames in her eyes burned until the tip of her heart.

I still remember that a year ago, he drunk her in the Mufang Hall of Qianyuan Palace, making him ecstatic and just want to be obsessed with her all the time. Nowadays, it is still a spring with warm water, and even if you don't drink alcohol, you can get drunk. He kissed her again, and his hand wandered between her legs for a moment, making her more and more limpous.

Scarlet only felt that the pupils of his eyes were a little unable to focus, and his fingers unconsciously wanted to unbutton his clothes, and he lay on the ground behind him, but his hands were more and more inaccurate, and he couldn't untie them after touching for a long time. He didn't mean to help her at all, he just kneaded every inch of her skin as if it were about to burn. She felt that the kitten in her heart was tickling and numb, and her limbs were a little uncontrollable, and her hands couldn't help scratching at the hem of his clothes, and she began to flirt with a piece of the hem of her clothes.

Suddenly she heard him smirk, his head buried in her neck. This smile made Scarlet come back to her senses a little, and found that she was hooking his neck with one hand, and pulling the hem of his clothes with the other hand, and her legs were hooked to his waist! The scarlet heart was so ashamed that the whole person was a little trembling, and she was just about to let go and close her legs, when suddenly her whole body palpitated and she didn't scream. His hand clasped between her legs, his fingers hooking her so that she shuddered for a while, and her throat was a little out of control. He pouted on her earlobe and whispered in her ear, "Do you know it's wrong?" ”

As soon as Scarlet heard him say this, tears were about to flow out. His body was tense, his breath was hot, and he had to treat her like this, her hands couldn't be clenched, and she felt that the sudden electricity made her scalp numb. He suddenly loosened his lips and looked up at her, his eyes already dark and bottomless, and he looked at her wrinkled face, his lips rubbing against the tip of her nose. A layer of fine sweat rose from her forehead, and even her whole body was as red as crystal seductive. Her eyes were foggy, and her throat choked for a long time: "I know it's wrong!" "The voice is hoarse, and the sound it brings out is like **.

"If you mess with it again......" he gritted his teeth and whispered as he stared at her expression.

She hooked his neck, half-raised her head and cried: "Don't make your own decisions anymore!" He looked into her eyes and took a slight breath: "Remember what you said yourself!" As he spoke, he no longer suppressed his lust, he just wanted to eat her alive!
