Chapter 31: Thoughts
"Niangniang, Niangniang, please wake up, the slave has something urgent." Cui Ying's slightly flustered and anxious voice whispered in Mrs. Li's ear.
Mrs. Li, who was lying lazily resting on the chaise longue, stiffened, and suddenly opened her cold eyes bursting with cold light, she blinked her eyes slightly to remove the terrifying cold light, looked at Cui Ying, who looked flustered, frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" So flustered. ”
"You go down first." Cui Ying waved her hand to the little palace maid who was sitting in front of the low couch and gently beating Mrs. Li's legs.
The little palace maid immediately bowed respectfully and withdrew.
"Mother, that person took things out." Cui Ying whispered cautiously in Mrs. Li's ear, afraid of being heard.
"Who?" Mrs. Li couldn't understand who Cui Ying was talking about, and raised her eyebrows suspiciously, her eyes glowing with doubt.
"It was the man, the one who asked him to leave, but he didn't leave at all." Cui Ying hurriedly explained, she frowned anxiously, shook her hands uneasily, and her face looked a little pale.
Mrs. Li's face sank, her eyes narrowed, her pupils constricted, and she said coldly: "Where did you know that he didn't leave." ”
"He still has contact with the people in the palace, and he lost the gambling money with Zhang Huwei of the Shenwu Sect, so he took the pearl necklace as collateral." Cui Yingxiang told Mrs. Li everything she knew.
Mrs. Li frowned when she heard this, her eyes were cold and shining, and she still didn't believe it again, she didn't believe that person dared to be disobedient, and she still stayed here, "You saw it with your own eyes?" ”
"Well, I saw with my own eyes, that Zhang guard was handed over to Xiufang to help him keep it, they are fellow countrymen." Cui Ying nodded, proving that she had seen it with her own eyes, and she continued, "The slave is afraid that he will lose the gambling money, so he bet all the things, then ......"
Most of Niangniang's items are given by the emperor, and they all have files, if they are sent out...... The more Cui Ying spoke, the more frightened she became, cold sweat broke out, and cold sweat broke out in her palms, she looked at Mrs. Li anxiously and worriedly, hoping that Mrs. Li could think of a way.
Mrs. Li's black pupils were constricted, her face was gloomy, and a fierceness flashed through the corners of her eyes, her slender jade hands were clenched, and her thin nails were sunk deep into her palms, leaving red and swollen dents.
Even the body that was lying comfortably became hard in an instant.
"Niangniang, the slave is afraid that he will lose all the money, so he will come back to Niangniang and threaten Niangniang, it is a bottomless pit." Cui Ying looked at Mrs. Li, who was silent, and hurriedly said what she was worried about, and then she frowned and continued.
"When the slave and maid looked at him, they must have wanted more, so they didn't leave the capital, he was really an insatiable person." As he spoke, his expression became hateful, and he gritted his teeth and wanted to tear that life alive.
Mrs. Li's eyes blinked when she heard this, and the remnants swept her eyes, making her originally gentle face look ruthless and cold, making people's hearts beat when they looked at it.
Cui Ying's expression was shocked, her heart couldn't help shaking, such a mother looked a little terrifying, that ruthless and cold appearance made Cui Ying think of the poisonous snake that swallowed the letter, her heart trembled, and her expression became frightened, she hurriedly lowered her head, and the fear that appeared in her eyes and face, she didn't dare to show a little fear in front of Mrs. Li.
Otherwise, Mrs. Li who she knew would definitely deal with her, after all, she knew and shouldn't know, although Mrs. Li didn't do anything to her now, it was because she still had use value and could help her, and she didn't find anyone else who could use it.
But what about later? What about when she has no use for it, and when she finds something more helpful to her? Who guarantees that she will not kill people.
The more Cui Ying thought about it, the more frightened she became, and a cold air surged up from the soles of her feet, spreading all over her body in an instant, making the cold air of her limbs penetrate the bone marrow, and the hand holding the handkerchief also trembled gently, and she quickly put her hand into the cuff to cover it.
Take a deep breath of air, suppress the panic and fear in your heart, and stand calmly.
"You secretly ask someone to ask Zhang Huwei, they usually gamble there for money." Mrs. Li twisted her eyebrows and pondered for a while, and then explained to Cui Ying.
"Yes, slave and maid go now." Cui Ying quickly agreed, turned around and wanted to walk out.
"Wait." Mrs. Li suddenly called Cui Ying back.
"Well, what else does the mother have to say?" Cui Ying hurriedly turned around and respectfully waited for Mrs. Li's instructions.
"Well, don't ask, they definitely aren't in the Forbidden City, they must be outside, you just find someone, give money and he will go with them, it's okay to lose money, see if it's him, if it's ......" Mrs. Li's jade hand crossed her neck and made a killing motion.
"Yes, slave understands." Cui Ying forcibly suppressed the fear in her heart, nodded immediately, and was smart not to ask why she wanted to kill him.
"Find a reliable one, don't look for another one." Mrs. Li's cold words came over, and Cuiying was so frightened that she knelt down with a "snap", did she dare not kneel? Didn't Mrs. Li tell her clearly that she was not doing things well?
"The slave must find a reliable one this time, and there will never be such a thing again." Cui Ying quickly assured, afraid that she would be too late to make Mrs. Li unhappy and her life would be in jeopardy.
"Well, you go down." Mrs. Li looked at her deeply, and then continued to squint her eyes to rest.
"The slave and maid retired, and the slave and maid asked Xiaohong to come in and beat your legs." Cui Ying asked respectfully.
"Hmm." Mrs. Li answered lazily, not opening her eyes at all.
Cui Ying quickly retreated, and the little palace maid who had just withdrawn walked in gently, sitting on the low couch and beating Mrs. Li's legs.
Mrs. Li, who seemed to be calm, felt like a galloping horse, and couldn't calm down.

Cui Yuxuan
"Little master, it's done over there." Zhou Anju whispered a report.
"What about Mrs. Li?" Yun Xiaoxiao looked up at the blue sky outside the window, the bright and transparent blue sky, as if it had been splashed and washed, it was refreshing to watch.
"Mrs. Li also received the news, and she also sent Cui Ying out to find someone." Zhou Anju quickly told the news he had found, and he watched the person go out.
It was also he who watched Cui Ying find the guard, and the guard also obeyed Mrs. Li's words, and was trying to find a way to catch the guard so that he could check if it was the person.
"Well, I see, thank you." Yun Xiaoxiao turned his head and glanced at Xiaojuan.
Xiaojuan was very acquainted and personally served Zhou Anju a cup of tea.
Zhou Anju was flattered and thanked Xiaojuan again and again, "Sister Xiaojuan, don't dare to be a slave." ”
"This is the little master's reward for you, you can drink tea with peace of mind." Xiaojuan also came over with a few plates of dim sum, "You missed the time to eat, and now you haven't eaten for a while, let's eat this to cushion your stomach first."
Here, Xiaojuan personally greeted Zhou Anju, but Yun Xiaoxiao over there was thinking about how to stab this matter into Nangong Qing's hands.
Only Nangong Qing can come forward to catch the sore spot of Queen Cheng Lingyue and Mrs. Li, what should she do?
