Chapter 378: Suspicion of He Jingjing
The mountain where Qingyunguan is located is really complicated, here, there is no one to find at all, Leng Yan soon realized that this kind of search is too inefficient.
Before they found Zhao Qiujin, maybe Zhao Qiujin had already had an accident.
And he has been restless for the past two days, so he still decided to go down the mountain to have a look.
Chang'an immediately said: "Then it's better to be like this, I'll ask people to look for it on the mountain, and then as soon as there is news, send it to us immediately, I will accompany the emperor down the mountain together, this time we must go to Shangshu Mansion to find out." ”
Leng Yan heard Chang'an say this, nodded after thinking about it, he really needs someone to take care of him at the bottom of the mountain, and he doesn't know if He Jingjing took someone away, and who is the person she took away, is it one person or two people she took away?
No one knew about these, so Leng Yan specially sent a team of people to look for He Siya on the mountain.
The things on the side of the nunnery couldn't be hidden from the palace, and soon King Qi knew that Concubine Shu was missing in Qingyunguan, and on the day that Concubine Shu disappeared, He Jingjing actually went to Qingyunguan!
He Jingjing was in the palace at the moment, with a comfortable look on his face.
She has already asked Xiao Qi's dead girl to be placed in Shangshu Mansion, and when the time comes, with her own mother watching, she will naturally not be discovered, and everything will be taken care of by her mother, and her father will not know about it.
Thinking of this, He Jingjing couldn't help but feel a little proud in her heart, feeling proud of her cleverness.
However, Taohong was a little worried in her heart, and heard that the emperor was now suspicious of the two of them.
"Mother, how can you still be so calm now? I heard what Grandpa He said, the emperor has been asking about these things in the past few days, and they are all asking why you and your wife went up the mountain, when the time comes, how can we explain it to the emperor! ”
Looking at Taohong's sad face, He Jingjing snorted coldly, with a mocking look on her face, and directly threw the teacup in her hand to the ground.
The teacup shattered in an instant, and she glanced at Peach coldly: "You dead girl, why are you so nervous now?" Do you want the emperor to know that this matter has something to do with me? As long as you don't say it, the emperor won't find out that this matter is related to this palace.
You can rest assured, my mother will help me hide this matter, and the people of Shangshu Mansion will not find out about the existence of Xiao Qi, when the time comes, let's push two, five or six, this palace is just to accompany my mother to go up the mountain to incense, there is nothing else, do you remember? ”
Looking at Liji Niangniang's gloomy expression, Taohong immediately nodded, nodding like pounding garlic: "Niangniang, you know, you know, the slave will definitely not be exposed, Niangniang can rest assured." ”
The two of them pretended to be calm now, but the emperor quickly found out about this side and asked He Jingjing why he went to Qingyunguan that day.
"Liji, I remember it clearly, there are a lot of Taoist temples nearby, why do you and your mother go thousands of miles to Qingyun Temple, Qingyun Temple is very far away, there is a Jimin Temple near here, why don't you go to Jimin Temple?"
Seeing that the emperor's face was gloomy now, He Jingjing was also a little scared in her heart, but she kept reminding herself in her heart that she must not show any panicked emotions now.
Otherwise, it will only make the emperor more suspicious of her.
Thinking of this, she secretly gritted her teeth, and then said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the concubines and concubines chose to go to Qingyunguan because my mother said that she wanted to visit my sister, although the relationship between my mother and my sister has not been very good over the years, but my mother always wants to save the relationship with my sister, and, Your Majesty, didn't you say that in the future, I will make my sister the queen, this matter actually has a great impact on us, so my mother has always hoped to ......"
Speaking of this, He Jingjing didn't continue to speak, but she pretended to be hesitant and embarrassed, she was like this now, and her performance was very real. absolutely
According to the character of the group of people in Shangshu Mansion, it is indeed possible for them to do such a thing, and they will stammer He Siya.
Seeing that the emperor seemed to be considering whether what she said was true or false, and seeing that the emperor didn't speak, He Jingjing knew that the emperor must be thinking about this issue.
She simply said directly: "Your Majesty, to be honest, my sister's whereabouts are unknown now, and there was an accident, this matter will hurt our He family the most, otherwise, there will be a queen in our He family, and in the future, my sister will inevitably take care of me in the palace, how could I do such a thing?"
The concubine knows what the emperor is thinking, does the emperor suspect that this matter is related to the concubine? However, this matter was really not done by the concubine. ”
He Jingjing said, with a sincere look, instead of letting the emperor directly say what he doubted her, it would be better for her to have a preconceived idea and directly admit this matter, which would be better.
Qi Yuanheng didn't speak, but he looked at He Jingjing in front of him, what He Jingjing said was quite true, but whether it was true or false, this matter was also ambiguous.
"You ......"
He frowned and squinted, but the woman in front of him was unwilling to admit that she had done something.
He Jingjing's mind was obviously faster, and she also knew that the first thing the emperor suspected now was her and her mother, after all, they went to Qingyun Temple that day, but this didn't mean anything.
After all, no one has seized on the evidence that they really did anything.
He Jingjing lowered his head slightly, pretending to be aggrieved: "Your Majesty, the concubines will tell the truth, and the concubines also know that the emperor has a lot of suspicions about the concubines in his heart, but no matter what, the concubines are the sisters, how can the crystals be willing to hurt their own families." ”
She said with sincerity, so that Qi Yuanheng had to believe what she said.
Seeing that the emperor still didn't speak, but there was clearly a loose look in his eyes, He Jingjing continued: "Your Majesty, in fact, now that my sister has an accident, my heart as a sister is also very uncomfortable, the concubine wants to do something for my sister, if the emperor really doesn't believe in the concubine, then you can let the concubine also go to Qingyunguan for a while, it just so happens that the concubine also goes to see, where did my sister go, how could it be...... A good person is gone. ”
Seeing He Jingjing's sincere look, Qi Yuanheng still couldn't bear to say anything cruel after all, and even opened his mouth to comfort He Jingjing.
"Well, in the recent period, there may be a lot of these rumors, you don't have to take it to heart, the clear ones are self-clearing, and the turbid ones are self-turbid. When this matter is over, it will naturally pass. I'll find a way to find your sister, and I won't let anything happen to your sister. Don't worry! ”
He Jingjing nodded.
However, Qi Yuanheng didn't stay in this palace for a while because of her, and even after talking about Zhao Qiujin, he turned around and wanted to leave.
He Jingjing originally wanted to stop the emperor, but it was a bit inappropriate to stop Qi Yuanheng at this time, after all, Qi Yuanheng was running for the sake of Concubine Shu now, if she stopped the emperor, it would seem that she was ignorant.
Thinking of this, He Jingjing could only secretly clench his fists.
She was unwilling for a while, the emperor was still thinking about He Siya's slut in his heart after all, even now that He Siya was gone, the emperor was thinking about it, and all the people he thought of were her.
He Jingjing was full of jealousy, but she could only helplessly look at Qi Yuanheng's back as he turned away.
