Entering the house, the Queen Mother was sitting on a couch covered with thick cushions, playing with a string of carnelian bracelets in her hand, disgusted.

Seeing her coming, the Queen Mother smiled reluctantly, beckoned to her, summoned her to sit down, and then saw Fu Tan following behind her.

Fu Yingran introduced Fu Tan to the Queen Mother, "This is Fu Chen, who has been responsible for protecting me since I was in the palace." ”

The Queen Mother lifted her eyes and looked Fu Chen up and down with a critical and wise look.

Fu Tan was wearing the uniform of the small yellow door, slightly arched, his hands folded in front of him, his eyes staring at his feet, and his eyebrows were low.

Even if he behaves respectfully, he can't see the humility of the eunuch at all, his excellent appearance is eye-catching, and his cold and arrogant temperament can't be hidden.

The queen mother didn't comment on him, but just lightly admonished a few words, "In the future, you must serve the county lord well, and when you enter the palace, you must abide by the rules of the palace, and don't make trouble for the county lord." ”

"You were arranged for her by the county lord's father, and you are the closest and most loyal to her. But you also have to remember that just because you are the person next to the county lord, your words and deeds represent the county lord, and you must not make mistakes and lose the face of the county lord. Otherwise, even if you are the county lord's father, the mourning family will never show mercy. In the future, if the county lord needs anything, or if you don't understand anything, you can come to Fukang Palace. ”

He knelt down and made a big bow by touching his forehead with his hands.

"Before I came, the master once said that from now on, the master is the only master in my life, and my life is the master's, even if I try my life, I will protect the master's stability. Only the master's order is obeyed. ”

The corners of the Queen Mother's eyes twitched slightly, "That's very good." ”

After speaking, he didn't want to look at Fu Chen anymore, and turned to Fu Yan with a smile.

Fu Yingran looked at the two of them, and he didn't know what dumb riddles they were playing, but he always felt that there was something in his words.

"Your father sent a letter to the palace yesterday, knowing about your entry into the palace, and telling you to take good care of you, don't let people bully you."

The Queen Mother patted her shoulder with a smile, then restrained her smile and said seriously, "Controlling your subordinates is also a science, don't be overly indulgent." ”

The Queen Mother's words obviously mean something, there are already bad rumors about her and Fu Chen, if it is too special for Fu Chen, I am afraid that the rumors will never disappear.

Fu Yingran pretended not to understand, and responded absentmindedly, but in his heart he thought about the Dazai of Tianyang Kingdom.

Her father, who only heard of her name and did not know her, wrote a letter to the Queen Mother, but did not write a letter to her daughter.

Does he really care about her, or is it just the Queen Mother's words of comfort?

On the way back to Yinghui Garden, he has been thinking absentmindedly about a person.

After hearing about Imperial Doctor Hu, there was always a vague intuition, which was indescribable, but so real.

On the straight palace road, the two eunuchs saw her and immediately retreated to the side of the road, bowing respectfully.

From time to time, there were maids and eunuchs around, all of whom consciously retreated to the side, but they couldn't help but cast a warm gaze at them.

There is nothing more than him, he is really too eye-catching, that incomparable face, that pair of deep and sultry/human Danfeng eyes, can always attract people's eyes.

He indifferently endured the blatant or cautious gaze of those who turned a blind eye, and his eyes were only fixed on the person in front of him who suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

Fu Yingran stopped on the wide palace road for a while, and suddenly turned around and walked back, and the palace people behind him hurriedly followed.

"Where are you going?"

He reined in his steps, always keeping a distance from half of her body.

Fu Yingran glanced back at him and spit out two words, "Silkworm Room." ”

Fu Yingran went to find the little yellow door in charge of the silkworm room, but was told that the little yellow door had been sick and dead for half a month.

The estimated time was the day after Fu Ying went to the Silkworm Room and Tai Hospital, the same as the day when Imperial Doctor Hu was demoted from the palace.

The news was unexpected, but it seemed to be expected.

Fu Yingran's instincts told her that it was no coincidence, that both of them died because of her.

But why is that?

These two are just strangers who have only known each other for one day, and if they do something wrong, they need to pay with their lives.

"It was the Queen Mother who killed them......"

Fu Yingran frowned down, his face was covered with clouds, and he turned his head to look at Fu Chen, and his voice suddenly choked in his throat.

He stood straight beside her with half of his body behind, his expression indifferent, no surprise, and he seemed to have known it to heart.

"You already knew?"

Fu Yingran's throat was a little hoarse, and his breathing tightened, and after he asked this, his lips tightened.

He looked back at her faintly, without retorting or answering.

He acquiesced.

Today's weather is fine, out of the sun, but she can't feel the warmth of the sun, and the cold wind is still refreshing.

"Tell me why."

Why kill them?

"There are some things that you need to find out for yourself."

It was this unfathomable tone again, his eyebrows and eyes were deep, with a hint of distress, but he still didn't tell her anything.

The fire gradually swelled in Fu Yingran's chest, and he felt like a monkey, constantly being watched and played, completely in the dark.

Seeing her angry expression, his pupils shrank suddenly, and the muscles in the corners of his eyes trembled invisibly.

He quickly glanced at the remote garden he was in now, and drove the palace people who followed him into the distance.

Fuyan and Crescent retreated, guarding the entrances and exits of the small garden, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

"Not everything can be explained clearly, rather than others speaking the truth with various purposes, it is better to understand and explore by yourself, that is the most real answer."

He grabbed her shoulders and looked at her earnestly, his gaze parallel to hers.

"You were sent by my father, and what you did represented my father's attitude, so this is also what my father meant?"

"Everything I do is for you."

There was a flash of determination in her eyes, but she ignored it.

Fu Yingran took a few deep breaths and suddenly felt very lonely.

The people around her seem to have secrets, and only she is naked in front of everyone, with nothing to hide.

"You and my father fully trust the Queen Mother?"

She asked an interesting question.

The corners of Fu Chen's lips hooked slightly, and his restrained eyes lit up with a touch of light, "What's wrong with the Queen Mother?" ”

Fu Yingran snorted lightly and said bluntly, "If she killed Imperial Doctor Hu and Xiao Huangmen for me, why did she add fuel to the fire and intensify the Hu family's suspicion of me?" ”

Fu Tan hugged his arms and looked like he was listening.

"There is a saying that it is too much, and sometimes the more desperately you try to explain, the more empty your heart becomes. It is rumored that the Queen Mother loves me very much, and Mama Xi today is in full view of everyone today and categorically denies my relationship with the death of Imperial Doctor Hu, which seems to help me, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is the Queen Mother's intention to cover up. The Queen Mother has been in power for ten years, and she is not a stupid person, so she will not think of the difference. ”

"Makes sense."

Fu Yingran looked at his indifferent appearance, and she didn't know if she had thought of this a long time ago, or if she didn't take her thoughts seriously at all.

"Also, she's been too kind to me. I adopted me as my adopted daughter because my father entrusted her, but in fact we are complete strangers, and we are overly pampered by a strange girl, either because we have a plan or ...... Lift high and fall heavy. ”

A hint of appreciation flashed across her cold face, and she was still that smart.

Fu Yingran looked at him expectantly, hoping that he would say something.

Fu Tan smiled softly and brushed away her windswept forehead, "What kind of person the Queen Mother is, you can think for yourself." Trust your feelings. ”

"So I guessed right? The Queen Mother is selfish. ”

"It's time to go back."

Fu Tan didn't answer her words, his eyes fell on her waterfall-like black hair, and he pinned the two strands of hair that floated to his chest behind him, and his heart finally settled.
