Chapter 66: Temptation
In the early spring, the wind and rain are slightly soft, blowing all over the place, so that everything is moist and born, and the spring is beginning to appear.
Only half a month after the abortion of the eldest princess of Rongfu, Sheng Changqiong, the culprit was caught.
Sheng Changning listened to the people below say that it was a laundry maid in the internal affairs workshop, and she was a palace maid in the White Snow Palace, and later Sheng Changqiong punished her for entering the internal affairs workshop, and since then she has held a grudge......
With such a reason, it is easy to harm people who can kill themselves dozens of times, Sheng Changning doesn't believe it, and the palace maid thinks that it is also a proper substitute for the dead ghost.
The replacement is naturally the one from Huangyang Palace.
I just don't know if Sheng Changmu participated in the matter of finding a substitute to cover up the crime......
Maybe she thought too much, Sheng Changning leaned on the edge of the couch and pinched his index finger phalanx, Sheng Changmu was not so stupid that he couldn't see the clues of the concubine, and if he could see it, he wouldn't do anything to defend the person who wanted to kill him.
"What happened to the palace maid in the housekeeping workshop?" Sheng Changning asked in a condensed voice.
Since he died for someone, he must have relatives or a handle in the hands of Concubine Yi, and if he searches along the vine, he may be able to find out who the man who conspired with Concubine Yi is.
Lixia hurriedly replied: "The palace maid has been imprisoned in the prison, and I heard that it is still His Majesty's will." β
Sheng Changning frowned slightly, "Let's go, go to the North Hall and have a look." β
Lixia was still a little stunned, and couldn't come back to his senses, "Princess, you, are you going to see Your Majesty?" β
"Yes...... But the slave maid heard that His Majesty has come to stay overnight in Huangyang Palace recently, but I am afraid that you will not be able to find anyone when you go to the North Palace......"
Sheng Changning's eyebrows were a little softened, and she said as she walked out of the Shufang Hall with steps, "It's okay." The royal brother is now the king of a country, and all important political matters of the court need to be reviewed in the North Palace, and the royal brother will naturally not delay political affairs because of beauty. β
Since Sheng Changmu is so incomprehensible, it is better for her to go through it herself,
Lixia didn't dare to refute her words anymore, and hurriedly followed with broken steps, but as soon as they reached the door, the two met Bai Lu.
"Come along."
Sheng Changning didn't hesitate much, and directly ordered Bai Lu to follow.
I thought that I would be left out like a few days ago, but suddenly I heard the princess's voice, Bai Lu immediately couldn't help but rejoice, she showed a big smile, and answered "No" crisply.
On the way to the North Palace, I didn't meet anyone again, at most some palace maids, although I didn't recognize Sheng Changning's identity, but when I saw Sheng Changning's gorgeous clothes, they all lowered their eyebrows and saluted her.
"It's Princess Fengningβ"
Walking to the gate of the North Palace, Sheng Changning was stopped by a person, and listening to the voice, it was obvious that she knew her. Sheng Changning raised his eyes and saw that he was a white-faced and beardless little chamberlain.
He was squinting at her at this time, smiling, and it was hard to see what he meant.
Sheng Changning looked at him a little familiar, and thought quietly for a moment, only then did he remember this person, when she came to the North Hall for the first time after she was reborn, she was also stopped by this person who looked down on people with dog eyes.
"It was Gonggong Fu."
Sheng Changning half-hooked the corners of his lower lip, revealing a smiling appearance, as if he was stopped and very impatient.
Father-in-law Nafu was not annoyed, his smiling gaze swirled around Sheng Changning's body, and then said: "Slave, please Fengning Princess Da'an, if the princess wants to come to find Your Majesty, please go back, Your Majesty has been staying with the concubine all these days, and you can't find anyone in the North Palace." β
"Father-in-law Fu has gone through the previous time, but he hasn't learned to be obedient?" Sheng Changning didn't give him half a point in his eyes, smiled and said unceremoniously.
ββ¦β¦β
Gonggong Fu was choked unceremoniously, and he couldn't speak for a while, and after a long time, his tone was a little hard: "Why doesn't Princess Fengning believe what the slave said?" Your Majesty wants to go to which mother, which palace, how can a slave decide, your words like this, isn't it embarrassing for a slave! β
Sheng Changning glanced at him, her eyes condensed, and she smiled slightly, "Really...... As my father-in-law said, Your Majesty went to Concubine Yi? β
Father-in-law Fu was stunned by her eyes, and unconsciously began to stutter his words, "Self, naturally...... Minions, minions, where dare to talk half-heartedly......"
It's just that before he finished his words, his pupils unconsciously widened, and he saw that the elegant Princess Fengning in front of him was obviously still smiling, but her hand pushed straight open the closed palace door!
In the hall where the candles are lit, the lights are bright, and the golden dragon is hovering above the beams and pillars, and there is a magnificent wall under it. On the high platform, someone's gaze was sharply projected.
"Father-in-law?"
The smile on Sheng Changning's face was very faint, and Gonggong Fu, who was mentioned by her, couldn't help but want to hang his head so as to avoid the sight of Princess Fengning and His Majesty who could kill people......
The door of the hall was closed again, Sheng Changning stepped forward step by step, knelt on the ground, and made a big salute, until Sheng Changmu made a voice to let her get up, but she still didn't want to get up.
"Sheng Changqing, you are too bold! Two or three times of trespassing into my dormitory, do you know what the crime is? Sheng Changmu was indeed a little annoyed, he was looking at Changning's face, so he would give Sheng Changqing such a name and treatment, but it did not mean that she could flout the palace rules in the palace and act arbitrarily at will!
"Changqing is guilty."
Sheng Changning pleaded guilty lightly, and did not refute, but the king in the high position choked unconsciously.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Sheng Changmu has recently been attacked from both sides in the harem of the former dynasty, it can be described as "burnt out", and now Sheng Changqiong's matter has not completely subsided, and the king of Yonghuai, who is far away in Jiangbei, still needs to be appeased.
Sheng Changning lowered his eyes, "Changqing is here for the matter of the eldest princess of Rongfu. β
"Changqiong? It's normal that you've heard about her, but you don't have to worry about it. Sheng Changmu said lightly, but the meaning of the words was obvious, that is, he didn't want Sheng Changning to meddle in this matter.
"Then Your Majesty, do you know that the palace maid who murdered the fetus in the womb of Princess Rongfu used to be an errand in Huangyang Palace?"
Hearing this, Sheng Changmu frowned, "Don't you want to say that this matter still involves the concubine?" β
When Sheng Changning's words fell, he raised his eyes and looked up, and the face of the king in the high position had no other emotions, only a slight surprise and disbelief, with some irritability.
Sheng Changning let go of some apprehension, it seems that Sheng Changmu did not know about the poison of Concubine Yi.
"Changqing has something to say to His Majesty, and I hope Your Majesty will be polite."
