Chapter 276: It's all in the silence
Unable to catch anyone, the emperor demoted the commander by two ranks, and let the original deputy commander be the commander. personally condoled Cheng Wei, and only asked the new commander to strengthen his vigilance.
As a result, there were two more guards guarding the palace at night.
Cheng Tang thought that the leader was Cheng Wei's person at first, and secretly laughed at him for lifting a stone and shooting himself in the foot. After thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong, and after checking it, I learned that the new commander had been a military commander for two years under the Duke of Lingguo.
What a good strategy. If Cheng Lianjin is caught, as long as the minister goes to the table and says that the king of Chu assassinated his imperial brother late at night, this is a crime. Not allowed to be summoned by the emperor, entering the palace without permission is suspected of rebellion, which is a second crime.
Even if the emperor didn't believe it, he would be forced by the minister to get the title of King of Chu that cost Cheng Lianjin and be under house arrest for the rest of his life.
If you can't catch Cheng Lianjin, you can help your own people to the position of commander of the forbidden army. The Praetorian Guard is in charge of all the guards of the palace, and if something changes happen, Cheng Tang can only be at the mercy of Cheng Xuan.
Thinking about it, a sense of crisis struck, and Cheng Tang thought more deeply. Sleepless nights.
Cheng Lianjin returned to the palace and pretended to be fine. Qin Muyao still noticed his depressed mood, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Cheng Lianjin smiled and nodded, but the doting in his eyes did not change: "What are you going to do?"
"You come with me. Qin Muyao dragged Cheng Lianjin to the place where Zilin was being held. Ming Liang was also inside, but it wasn't Qin Muyao who caught it, he came to ask for guilt.
"Do you know who this poor Zilin is?" Qin Muyao looked at the two kneeling people. The pretense is mysterious, and the tone is full of irony.
"Why is Mingliang here?" Cheng Lianjin frowned, angry.
"I'm sorry for the prince. Ming Liang kowtowed and didn't speak again.
"Ming Liang liked Miss Zilin and released her privately. Qin Muyao said easily, "He came to ask the prince for his guilt." ”
Cheng Lianjin didn't speak, just stared at Ming Liang in disappointment, and the scrutiny was extremely meaningful. Ming Liang glanced at Zilin, who was still unconscious, and bowed his head and said nothing.
"Lord Wang, you haven't answered the question of the concubine. Qin Muyao's coquettish appearance made people can't help but want to pinch her twice.
Cheng Lianjin laughed heartily, sure enough, as long as you are here, I will come to the world again, and the things that disturbed me just now were all left behind, and there was only Qin Muyao's every move in my eyes: "Who?"
"It's the prince who guesses. ”
"Oh. But I don't know. ”
Qin Muyao threw him a roll of the eye, he really didn't cooperate at all, so he had to say it himself: "Liu Fenglan." ”
Cheng Lianjin was a little surprised, and felt that it was expected and unexpected: "Isn't she dead......?
"I'll have to wait until she wakes up and ask her. Qin Muyao smiled evilly and glanced at Xihua.
Xihua poured the water in the Mu basin on Zilin's face.
The stimulation of the cold water made Zilin wake up, exhale, choke on the hand that flowed into her mouth again, and coughed a few times.
"Is it because of me? Qin Muyao sat down, the indifference on her face was like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.
Zi Lin hated it so much, it was me who should have sat in that position. Obviously all this should be mine. Nails are deeply embedded in the palms of the hands.
"Am I late?" Yuan Zhen and Miao Sangsang walked in from outside the door, looking at the messy scene, with a smile on their faces, as if they had missed a good show.
Miao Sangsang carried the hem of her skirt, stepped over the water stains on the ground, and fell to the ground in a dashing manner.
"Sangsang, there's something to trouble you. He Mu Ru glanced at Zilin.
Miao Sangsang nodded, and Xihua whispered a few words in her ear. Holding something in his hand, he walked over, pinched Zilin's chin vigorously, and stuffed it in.
Ming Liang stood up, the muscles on his body trembled slightly because of his large movements, and he looked at Miao Sangsang vigilantly, but he didn't dare to make more movements, because Cheng Lianjin was there, so he had to ask roughly: "What are you going to do." ”
"Mingliang. Cheng Lianjin was a little displeased, and with a word, Mingliang took a few steps back and stopped talking.
Zi Lin only felt something crawling down her throat, giving her goosebumps. Miao Sangsang let go of her, and she fell down, clutching her throat and retching.
"Ahem, ahem. Zilin coughed loudly, even if her fingers stretched out further, she couldn't spit it out, her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked at Miao Sangsang with a hideous look: "What did you give me?!"
Miao Sangsang smiled at him and didn't speak. Zi Lin suddenly felt that her body was like falling into an ice cave, and the whole person was curled up together, and then she felt that her body was hot, her skin was red, and she was lying on the ground tearing her clothes, and her eyes were red.
As soon as Ming Liang touched her, he was shocked, knelt on the ground and begged Cheng Lianjin: "Lord, please let her go." Let me bear the punishment, I have rough skin and thick flesh. ”
"What's the hurry?" Cheng Lianjin threw back a cold look.
Zi Lin suddenly fell silent, and her body temperature returned to normal. Cheng Lianjin put his hand on his knee, leaned forward, and pointed at Zilin casually: "You like her?"
"Hmm. Ming Liang glanced at Zi Lin and said affirmatively.
"Then she'll give it to you. Cheng Lianjin looked at Ming Liang and was a little reluctant, "You will not be the king's person in the future." Take her with you. ”
Ming Liang looked up at Cheng Lianjin, he was reluctant, but Cheng Lianjin knew what he thought in his heart, fulfilled him, and was not hypocritical, only grateful in his heart.
Everything is in a word, a look is enough to express all the feelings in his heart, Ming Liang kowtowed heavily, this is the first kowtow to Cheng Lianjin: "Thank you, Lord Xie." "Search
Mingliang got up and hugged Zilin, and Qin Muyao added: "She doesn't remember anything." In the future, all of her memories should be you, right?"
"Thank you, Princess. Ming Liang turned around, thanked him, and took Zilin out of the palace overnight, and Changxu sent it to the door.
Since then, no one knows the news of the most powerful craftsman Mingliang.
The next day.
Xihua took a small bamboo tube and handed it to Qin Muyao, and Qin Muyao remembered that this was left to her by Uncle Xiong.
That day, he got out of this body, and when he woke up, he forgot about it, and asked Yuan Zhen to take his pulse last night, and he only said one sentence: "You are in good health." ”
It made Qin Muyao's heart a little colder, and she cherished the current time more and more, thinking about what she didn't do every day.
Slowly opened the bamboo tube, and every time he looked at a line, his face became a little dignified, and finally he directly blackened his face, pinched the paper into a ball, and went out with the wind.
"Princess, where are you going?" Xihua followed behind, only hearing Qin Muyao's voice, "Prepare the car and go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Xihua ran out from the side door, and Qin Muyao bumped into Cheng Lianjin who had just entered the door when she was discharged from the hospital.
His face was squeezed on his chest, Cheng Lianjin took advantage of the situation to hug her tightly, and his magnetic voice was soft: "Where is my wife going?"
"Hmm. Qin Muyao was so out of breath that she was hugged by him, and finally raised her head, but before she could speak, her mouth was blocked by him.
That's a bad thing. Qin Muyao couldn't pretend to be anything else in his mind now except him. The anger in my head just now dissipated.
"Huh?" Cheng Lianjin left her lips, and the corners of her mouth raised a beautiful arc.
"I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Qin Muyao's mind turned, remembering what she had to do, and left Cheng Lianjin's embrace.
As soon as he walked out a few steps, he was held by Cheng Lianjin again, with an aggrieved look: "Don't you take your husband with you?"
"You can't go today. Qin Muyao suddenly turned back and raised her hand mysteriously.
Cheng Lianjin saw the thing in her hand with sharp eyes, spread his hands at Qin Muyao, and snorted twice. Qin Muyao didn't want to hide it from him, so she obediently handed over the letter.
He was also the same as Qin Muyao, the more he looked at his expression, the more solemn he became, he took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and looked at Qin Muyao with a worried look: "I'll go with you." ”
"No, it's my family business, and I'm going to figure it out for myself, don't you have other things to do? Qin Muyao hurriedly waved her hand, she couldn't laugh when she thought of it, and without waiting for Cheng Lianjin to answer, she strode away.
And Cheng Lianjin was going to the palace, and in the morning he learned that Cheng Wei was seriously injured, no wonder he was making trouble catching the assassin, but he was also curious about who injured Cheng Wei.
He really couldn't think of anyone else who could hurt Cheng Wei, or if it was time to go to the palace. There are so many people waiting for him in the palace.
He also wanted to meet Concubine Long, Concubine Long treated him like this, and what Concubine Long did to his mother, he could figure it out, but Cheng Tang was in the middle. When I think of this, my heart hurts a little, and the brothers who are so close to each other may be strangers in the future.
Of course, if he can't take that step, Cheng Lianjin won't take a step.
The two husbands and wives, each with apprehension, went to the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial Palace.
Cheng Lianjin deliberately asked the coachman to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and when Changxu asked him if he wanted to go in. He just lowered the curtain and said, "Go to the palace." ”
Qiao'er in the palace was happily dressed up, since she knew that Cheng Lianjin was seriously injured, she knew that Cheng Lianjin would definitely enter the palace today, and finally be able to see him.
Yun Yu also wanted to meet and think about cooperation. Prince Yunmeng will naturally not be idle, he has come to Dayong for many days, and his relationship with Cheng Wei has stopped at greetings, and now it is time to express his sincerity.
At that time, with Cheng Wei's help, it will be easy to get rid of Yunyu in Dayong.
Qin Muyao looked at Xiao Xiaoxiao who stretched out her hand to herself, smiled, and turned her eyes at Miao, she was really wary of me.
"Mother, sister, don't sit still, this is a pastry that I have specially made. Mu Jun pushed the plate, and in private, he called Qin Muyao sister.
"Good. Miao smiled with her eyebrows, she didn't have to choose now, she would have to rely on Mu Jun in the future. It's just that he suddenly wanted to give up Qin Muyao, and he was a little reluctant.
"What is Mother looking at?" Qin Muyao asked unconsciously when she saw Miao Shi looking at her in a daze.
At this time, there were only three of them in the pavilion, and the guards and maids were waiting outside. And Murper is still in court.
"You've lost weight. Miao blurted out, she liked the daughter in front of her very much, but ......
Qin Muyao sneered in her heart, if you say this, won't your conscience hurt? He lowered his head and replied, "The weather has been hot and dry recently, so I can't eat much. ”
"Then I'll eat more when I come back today. Mu Jun pushed the pastry in front of her, looking loving.
"Hmm. Qin Muyao saw Mu Juncai smiling happily, and suddenly remembered Mu Quan's coming, and asked, "What about the second brother, why didn't he come?"
Speaking of this, the expression on Mu Jun's face stiffened, and he scratched the back of his head: "I'll go see him." ”
"Hmm. "Qin Muyao's original intention was to take him away. Mu Jun is gone, then there will only be the two of us here, my good mother.
"How is my mother doing lately?" Qin Muyao looked at the stone table, and there was no emotion in her tone.
