Qiao Cheng looked at the cup of red bean porridge that was splashed on Liu Jing's body, dyeing his white robe a dark red color, so she had to swallow her anger but said to him in a cold tone: "The concubine is rude." ”

The palace people who came to report the death of King Pingchang had never seen anyone dare to splash soup on His Royal Highness, and they were so frightened that their legs became weak, and they quickly knelt on the ground.

Liu Jing put the jade cup back on the case and said absentmindedly, "It's okay." The widow went to the dormitory to change his body. So he strode out of the Yongtai Temple. Since he got married, he didn't want to see Qiao Ji and Ling Zi. Because as soon as he saw them, he couldn't help but think of the peach blossom tree where he had returned from outside the city, and there was once a woman from the rivers and lakes, in front of the three of them, swords and flowers flowing, dancing and flying. So he left in a hurry, out of sight, out of mind.

In the Yongtai Palace, Qiao Cheng looked at the palace people who were still kneeling on the ground with a dead breath. The palace people were staring at and trembling, Qiao Cheng came back to her senses, took a deep breath, swallowed the thousands of grievances in her heart, and said to the palace people: "You go." ”

The palace people hurriedly ran away, and Qiao Cheng was left alone in the palace, looking around at a loss. She knew that her brother Qiao Yun had no military merits, and he was not as wise and brave as his father. After today, it will be difficult for the Pyeongchang Royal Mansion to make a comeback. The Empress Dowager Qiao is old, and I am afraid she will not live long. If she can't be the queen of the Song Kingdom, the Qiao family and the five generations of nobles will be down.

She involuntarily walked towards the warm couch of Yongtai Hall. Although canonized as a beauty, Liu Jing never went to her bedroom. The throat that had just choked was now endlessly bitter. Her husband probably didn't know where her bedroom was.

Walking to the warm couch, a corner of piercing white pierced her eyes. Your Highness, I want to see what secrets you have.

Seeing that there was no one around, Qiao Ji hurriedly took out the white paper that was pressed under the pillow. She hurriedly opened the neatly folded paper, and couldn't help but lose her face. The person on the paper, although he is dressed in men's clothes, but the delicate painting will outline a touch of red lips to the heartstrings. On the painting, it is clearly a woman with willow eyebrows and sideburns, shallow dimples, tactful eyes, and charming posture!

Moreover, she has seen this person!

Qiao Cheng didn't dare to look at the painting again, but memorized the inscription on the painting. She folded the portrait and pressed the paper back under the pillow, leaving no more white corners exposed.

She staggered back to Liu Jing's case, standing blankly beside the red bean porridge that had been sprinkled on the ground. She pondered in a trance, and the words on the drawing were clearly written by His Royal Highness himself. Could it be that the painting was also painted by his own hands? Your Highness, you can still paint? And the brushwork is still so delicate and real? Authentic to ...... I could tell who she was at a glance!

She is the Chen Guoshang you brought to the Jade Capital from Zhao Guopingliang! She is the fake broken sleeve who returned Curie and stepped on the Xuannu step in front of us and danced with the king's sword! She was the woman who fell in front of my carriage and on my scarlet carpet! At our wedding feast, she fought so hard that she put her sword around your neck, but you ...... Actually hid her portrait under the pillow?

Qiao Cheng suddenly couldn't hold back anymore. She squatted in front of a puddle of red bean porridge, crying with anger, crying with resentment, and crying with hatred.

At this time, another palace person hurriedly ran into the Yongtai Hall and saluted Qiao Cheng: "Qiao Meiren! There is an urgent report in the army, can Qiao Meiren know where His Highness is going? ”

Qiao Ji turned her back to the palace people, wiped away her tears, stood up, turned her head and asked, "What urgent report?" I'll pass it on. ”

The palace people hesitantly glanced at the empty Yongtai Palace, but they knew that the matter was urgent, and Qiao Meiren was not an outsider, so he replied: "General Lu Hui of Xiaoxiao Camp reported urgently, saying that he captured the left forward female general of the Qi army alive, Yan's." General Lu said that the revenge thief army may have other plans. Surrounding Yudu may not be their final plan. Na Yan refused to reveal the plan of the thief army in the prison, and threatened to ask His Highness to personally interrogate her, so she would say. General Lu was waiting at the gate of Dongxing Gate, wanting to ask His Highness if he wanted to interrogate the female general of the Qi army. ”

Qiao Cheng sneered and said, "This is ...... His Highness has just learned. I, the monarch of the Song Kingdom, can she be called by a thief in the prison? You use heavy torture to interrogate first, and as for whether His Highness will be tried or not, it depends on how long her cheap life can be saved! ”

The palace man hesitated for a while, and muttered in a low voice: "Qiao Meiren, this female general of the Qi Kingdom is not an ordinary traitor, but the wife who is married to the leader of the Restoration League. If the punishment is too severe...... I'm afraid ......"

Qiao Cheng raised her eyebrows and said, "No matter what kind of background she is, as long as she is left with a cheap life, she can be used as a hostage." As for the rest...... His Royal Highness has long said that the traitors who are imprisoned in the prison should not be missing the punishment of interrogation in the prison. Otherwise, where is the face of my Song Kingdom and where is the law? If the law does not exist, how can the country be safe and the people be safe? ”

Gong Ren thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case. Qiao Meiren's cousin committed a crime before, and His Royal Highness didn't save face, so why should he go to see a traitor in person?

Qiao Cheng saw that the palace people were still not leaving, so she persuaded her kindly: "I saw that you entered the palace earlier than me, so you should know more about our Highness's temper than me, right?" His Highness had just learned about this, but he didn't pay attention to it at all, but went to rest. Your Highness has been toiling in the autumn barracks for several days, day and night, and if you disturb his rest because of this trivial matter that he does not want to pay attention to, I am afraid that your errand in the palace will not be able to save tonight. ”

The palace man asked cautiously, "So...... Jo Beauty ...... How can the little slave reply to General Lu in Dongxingmen? ”

Qiao Cheng said impatiently: "Let's just say that the traitor who is imprisoned in the prison should have the punishment of interrogation in the prison, and there is no less." This is what His Royal Highness personally said to Lord Zheng of the Criminal Department when my cousin committed the crime a while ago, is General Nalu special than Lord Zheng? Don't hurry up and reply to General Lu! Shall Your Highness personally condemn you for delaying military affairs? ”

The palace man nodded hurriedly and left in a hurry.

Qiao Cheng closed her eyes. In front of me, it is a painting under Liu Jing's pillow. Miss Yan, General Yan, whether you are a merchant of Chen or a traitor of Qi, you robbed my husband's heart, and your husband killed my father. I don't share the sky with you.

The palace people stumbled towards Dongxing Gate, but on the way they met another beauty in the palace, Ling Zi.

Ling Zi saw that the palace people were running in a hurry, so she chased after him curiously, grabbed him by the collar, and asked, "You, if you don't salute me when you see me, did you do something bad that is unseemly?" ”

The palace man shook his head and said, "Ling Meiren, please calm your anger." The little slave was ordered to report to General Lu of Dongxingmen, so he left in a hurry, but he really didn't see Ling Meiren. ”

Ling Zi let go of the palace man's collar and asked, "Is it a matter of the battlefield in the southern suburbs?" How's going on in the southern suburbs? What is the important thing for General Lu to go to the palace gate in person to wait for the decree? ”

The palace man replied: "It was General Lu who captured the female general of Qi alive and came to ask His Highness what he planned to do." ”

When Ling Zi heard that it was the female general of the Qi State who was married to the leader of the Restoration Alliance, she became interested: "How does Your Highness plan to deal with a female traitor?" ”

The palace man bowed his head and said, "Your Highness didn't bother to pay attention to this matter, and the little slave didn't see Your Highness." But Qiao Meiren passed on the meaning of His Royal Highness in the Yongtai Palace, saying that the punishment in the prison cannot be less. ”

Ling Zi let out an "oh" and waved his hand: "You go!" But he thought it was interesting, and he had a plan in his heart.
