Chapter 129: Losing Proportion in Love
Su Man saw that Lu Yan was sitting back on the big kang by the window, so he breathed a sigh of relief and leaned on the pillow relaxedly.
"I really didn't see that you have such a big temper, you will pick a son and leave if you don't agree with each other, and you won't talk about it at all."
Lu Yan took a shallow sip of tea from the teacup, and then slowly said: "I'm just acting according to your wishes, if you think it's not in accordance with the rules, then I naturally have to retreat." ”
Su Man was blocked by Lu Yan's words, and choked for a while before he snorted: "I can see through you, I really don't eat at all." ”
Lu Yan didn't quarrel with her again this time, only chuckled lightly and got down to business: "Speaking of things in the palace, didn't you just ask me if anyone else knew about Queen Ji's unstable fetus." ”
Su Man heard that he finally got down to business, and he no longer dwelled on Fang Cai's episode, sat up, stared at Lu Yan, and asked, "Look at what you mean, there are indeed others who know." ”
Lu Yan chuckled and shook his head: "Speaking of which, it's not an outsider, but everyone in Jingyang Palace knows this matter very well." ”
"You are suspicious," Su Man propped his elbows on the couch, his brows furrowed slightly, "There are internal ghosts around Queen Ji." ”
Lu Yan bowed: "There is a very capable female official by Queen Ji's side, named Shi Wanru, do you have any impression of her?" ”
When Su Man heard this name, he dragged his cheeks and thought for a while, and the appearance of a woman who did not smile appeared in his mind.
"Oh, it's her." Su Man stroked his palms and shouted, "Some time ago, I entered the palace with my grandmother, and a rather cold-looking female official asked my grandmother and me to wait in the side hall, and was later reprimanded by Queen Ji. ”
Lu Yan nodded slowly: "Listening to your description, it should be her." ”
As he spoke, he raised his wrist to fill the tea cup of the two of them, and then raised his eyes to look at Su Man again, and said softly: "This Shi Wanru was originally the daughter of a county order under the jurisdiction of Taiyuan Mansion, and at the age of thirteen, she entered the palace because of the draft girl, and was arranged to serve in front of the emperor after losing the election, and later because the queen casually boasted, she was sent to Jingyang Palace by the emperor.
"She is indeed a clever person, and she has been able to do it in a few years of hard work, and she has won the trust of Queen Ji."
Su Man was a little foggy when he heard this, and asked puzzledly: "Oh, then this female official should not be short to stay by Queen Ji's side, so why did she want to harm Queen Ji?" ”
The smile on Lu Yan's face never broke, and his voice was very gentle: "It's not harmful, but I just listened to the words of others." ”
Su Man raised her eyebrows, a woman who has achieved the position of a high-ranking female official in the palace, would she easily believe what others said.
Lu Yan seemed to see her unbelief, and continued: "Most women are soft-hearted, and they are more likely to indulge in love and lose their usual transparency. ”
Having said this, if Su Man hadn't understood it, he would have gone a little too far.
She laughed and sighed, "So, she has a good relationship." ”
Lu Yan was still smiling, but there was a little more praise in the smile: "I'm afraid that the other party won't admit that it's her good friend at all now." ”
Su Man shook his head, very sorry that this woman called Wanru is not worth it: "Who is that scumbag, who has taken advantage of other girls' hearts, patted his ass and left after the matter is successful, this kind of person will definitely go to eighteen layers of hell." ”
"I don't know if he'll go to the eighteenth floor of hell, but you may have misunderstood what I meant." Lu Yan bent his eyebrows slightly, "I mean, he can't open his mouth now to admit whether he is Shi Wanru's good friend or not." ”
Su Man's eyes widened a little depressedly, and after a long pause, he figured it out: "Also, you people are more meticulous than the other, how can such a big handle still be kept." ”
Lu Yan chuckled lightly and continued: "If you want to say that this stone seems to be also a good eye, it is not like the palace maid next to her, fantasizing that one day she will be able to fly on the branches and become a phoenix. ”
"I sent someone to carefully interrogate the maidservants in Jingren Palace, and when I asked about this, everyone praised her, saying that she was a cold-faced and hot-hearted person, and the prince even praised her for knowing how to advance and retreat."
"Such a woman must not be a person in the sky, but a man who is more compatible with her."
Su Man was deeply impressed by Lu Yan's words, and she nodded: "So, you checked the guards in the palace?" ”
"Yes." Lu Yan was still smiling, "Most of the guards in this palace are the sons of nobles, and a few of them are selected through martial arts, and there are only a few who are of the right age and have no family. ”
Su Man thought about it, in fact, it is not impossible for this hospital and the people in the Hanlin Courtyard to be impossible, but as a female official in the harem, the most people who can be contacted are this group of guards.
Therefore, she didn't plan to listen to those irrelevant things, and asked directly: "It's not a trivial matter to die a guard in the palace, how was this matter hidden?" ”
Lu Yan originally planned to tell her in detail who this janissary was, but it seemed that Su Man was not interested in knowing, so he didn't mention it anymore and answered her question instead.
"This janissary is a warm-hearted person on weekdays, and when he is no longer on an errand in the palace, he will help his neighbors.
"On the day of the queen's funeral, he was not on duty, but it happened that on that day, there was a family member walking away from the water not far from where he lived, he went to help, and he went into the house to save people but did not come out again."
"That's a coincidence." Su Man's mouth opened wide in surprise, "Is it really him who ran to help himself?" It can't be knocked unconscious and thrown into the fire. ”
Lu Yan shook his head slowly: "I originally thought the same way, but there were too many people I saw at that time, and that person really ran in to save people by himself, and then the fire sealed the door, and he never came out." ”
Su Man was speechless, this coincidence was a bit excessive, but she remembered the key point before she could finish her emotion: "But then again, what did this stone female official do to cause the queen to have a miscarriage and collapse." ”
"Queen Ji's baby was conceived after secretly taking banned drugs."
Lu Yan's voice was very soft, but his words were like a thunderbolt that made Su Man's brain buzz.
No wonder the original owner didn't mention it, thinking that in the previous life, the queen was indeed not pregnant.
"The medicine?" Su Man looked at Lu Yan hesitantly, but saw Lu Yan nodding affirmatively.
"It was Shi Wanru who got it from the guard, and then secretly gave it to Empress Ji."
