Chapter 369: Departure
"What do you say? Did the Queen Mother punish the imperial concubine? After listening to the dark guard's words, the messenger slammed the table and said.
"Yes, when the subordinates came out, the imperial concubine was still kneeling in the queen mother's bedroom." The Dark Guard nodded.
The envoy's face darkened, and he said, "You can go into the palace with me to find the Queen Mother now." After saying that, he took the lead and walked out.
In the heart of the envoy, his sister can be used as a pawn, but it does not mean that others can be punished at will regardless of the face of themselves and the Dongying Kingdom.
In the queen mother's bedroom in the palace, the imperial concubine still knelt in front of the queen mother with her head bowed.
The Queen Mother, who was sitting on the main seat, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and then threw the teacup in front of the imperial concubine, and then the teacup shattered and fell apart.
The Queen Mother said sharply: "What an imperial concubine, you deceived the mourning family so hard, don't you think you should give the mourning family an explanation?" ”
The imperial concubine, who was already trembling with fright, looked at the broken and broken cup in front of her, as if she had seen her fate, and suddenly trembled even more.
As soon as the envoy came in, he saw his sister kneeling on the ground tremblingly, and suddenly his anger increased, and he hurriedly walked over to help the imperial concubine.
The imperial concubine, who had been keeping her head down, saw her brother coming, grabbed the messenger's hand tightly, and looked at the envoy's eyes full of help.
The envoy patted the imperial concubine's hand soothingly, and said, "Good explanation, should the queen mother give an explanation to the next one first!" ”
"Explain, haha, messenger, messenger, you actually asked for an explanation with the mourning family, why don't you ask your good sister first, what did the good daughter-in-law of the mourning family do?"
Listening to the envoy and herself asking for an explanation, the Queen Mother couldn't help but feel funny, she waved her hand to the grandmother standing aside, and the grandmother told the messenger word by word.
After listening to Mama's words, the messenger said: "So what, our goal is the imperial power, and for the imperial power, I can do whatever it takes, at all costs." ”
"The messenger is unscrupulous, at all costs, no matter how unscrupulous the mourning family is, it is impossible to have a child who is not related to the mourning family at all costs." The Queen Mother sneered.
"Blood, heh, didn't the Queen Mother forget, the current emperor has no blood relationship with you at all, or the Queen Mother, a cheap queen mother, has been in office for a long time, so she really did a fake show" The messenger mocked.
"What does the messenger mean when he says this?" The Queen Mother's face turned dark.
"I think about what I mean, I can understand the wisdom of the Queen Mother, and I still hope that the Queen Mother can think about the pros and cons of things." After speaking, the envoy helped the imperial concubine to a chair, and he sat opposite the imperial concubine, quietly waiting for the queen mother's reply.
And the Queen Mother was a little messenger, and instantly understood the pros and cons of the matter.
Yes, the emperor is not his own flesh and blood, even if the child in the imperial concubine's belly is not his, as long as he gets what he wants, what does other people have to do with him.
After thinking about it, the Queen Mother smiled and said: "Sure enough, the envoy understands the matter, even so, the mourning family is here to match the envoy and the imperial concubine, and I hope that the envoy and the imperial concubine will not blame the mourning family for being reckless." ”
Because the queen mother and the envoy are in cooperative relationship and have also made amends, the envoy is naturally not good at saying anything: "Naturally, I will not blame the queen mother for her recklessness for a while." ”
The imperial concubine has already recovered for such a long time, although she is extremely resentful of the queen mother, but she also knows that if she wants to survive in this deep palace, she still has to rely on the queen mother, so she can only show a smile and say: "The daughter-in-law naturally does not blame the queen mother." ”
After such a fuss, it was already noon, and the queen mother ordered people to set up a meal and invite the envoy and the imperial concubine to dine together.
The imperial concubine, who didn't want to stay, saw that the envoy didn't say anything, and she couldn't help the queen mother's face, so she agreed with a smile.
In the emperor's bedroom not far away, Jiuhu, Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan gathered around to eat.
"Zhao Yun and I are going to go back to the Central Plains." Lin Kite, who was eating, stopped moving.
"Well, when will you leave?" Jiuhu nodded, not stopping the chopsticks in his hand.
Nine Fox wasn't surprised, because he knew that the Gu poison had already been made, so he wasn't surprised that they planned to leave.
"Finish lunch and leave." Lin Kite replied.
"So fast!" Nine Fox didn't expect them to leave so soon, thinking they would stay for a day or two.
"Originally, I set off after the Gu poison was completed, but Lin Kite was a few days late because he was worried about you these days." Zhao Yun on the side answered, and also sandwiched her favorite dish for Lin Yuan.
"Well, then you should be careful on the road, and I will see you off after dinner."
Lin Yuan and Zhao Yun nodded and did not speak again, so the three of them had lunch quietly.
After lunch, Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan were ready to leave.
Before leaving, Zhao Yun told Jiuhu: "We are not here, you should pay more attention to the movements of the Queen Mother, the Imperial Concubine and the envoy, and you should be more vigilant." ”
"Got it, let's go." Nine Fox nodded.
Seeing Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan get into the carriage, the carriage got farther and farther away, until finally it was no longer visible, Jiuhu sighed and said, "I am the only one left in this deep palace." After speaking, he turned around and walked into the deep palace.
Because Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan knew the urgency of the matter, they basically didn't stop except for eating and resting along the way, and soon arrived in the Central Plains.
In the carriage, Lin Yuan opened the curtain and looked at it twice, then put it down, leaned on Zhao Yun's body, yawned and said, "Finally arrived in the Central Plains." ”
"What, tired?" Zhao Yun clasped Lin Kite's waist with one hand to prevent her from knocking it, and touched Lin Kite's head dotingly with the other hand.
"Hmm." Lin Kite adjusted a comfortable posture and replied with squinted eyes.
"It will take a while to get to the Prime Minister's Mansion, you can rest for a while while while you rely on me."
After waiting for a long time, Zhao Yun didn't hear Lin Kite's answer, and he didn't know that Lin Kite had fallen asleep until he heard a steady breathing sound.
Zhao Yun smiled helplessly, and told the coachman that he drove more smoothly, so he stopped talking, for fear of waking up Lin Kite, who had just fallen asleep.
About an hour later, the carriage slowly stopped at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The prime minister just wanted to step forward to greet him, but he hurriedly silenced after seeing Zhao Yun get out of the carriage with the sleeping Lin Kite in his arms.
Zhao Yun glanced at the prime minister and said with his mouth: "Room." ”
The prime minister nodded, and hurriedly asked the housekeeper to lead Zhao Yun to the guest room in the mansion, while he went to the front hall to wait for Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun followed the housekeeper to a bedroom, gently put Lin Yuan on the bed, pulled the quilt for her, lightly imprinted a kiss on her forehead, and came to the front hall.
Seeing Zhao Yun coming in, the prime minister hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, have you got the Gu poison?" ”
"I've got it, now I have to find a way to give the pavilion master a Gu." Zhao Yun nodded, sat on a chair and said.
When the prime minister heard this, he was very excited, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he became serious again, although the Gu poison was obtained, the most important thing was how to enter the palace and put the Gu on the body of the pavilion master.
"It's easier to find a woman, it's easier to let a woman come than a man." The prime minister thought for a moment.
"This idea coincides with mine, but there is no suitable person right now." Zhao Yun thought for a long time and didn't find a suitable person, he raised his eyes and looked at the prime minister.
"I don't have the right person here." The prime minister knew what Zhao Yun meant, thought about it and replied.
There was no suitable candidate, and both of them fell into deep thought helplessly, thinking about whether there was a suitable candidate or other way.
Just then, a female voice came from outside the door: "I'll go." ”
As soon as he heard this, a touch of surprise instantly crossed the prime minister's face, and it was best for the prime minister to have someone go voluntarily.
But the focus of what Zhao Yun heard was not this sentence, but this person's voice, so his face changed instantly, and he stopped him in a commanding tone: "No, I don't allow you to go." ”
Lin Yuan, who had just stepped in, didn't expect Zhao Yun to talk to her in such a tone, so she was obviously stunned for a moment.
"I said I'll go." Lin Yuan thought that Zhao Yun didn't hear clearly, so he repeated it.
It turned out that Lin Yuan woke up after Zhao Yun had just left for a while, and when he saw that Zhao Yun was not there, he asked the maid on the side of the road all the way and came to the front hall.
But inadvertently, Lin Yuan heard the conversation between the two in the house, so he volunteered to enter the palace to play Gu for the pavilion master, wanting to share some things for Zhao Yun.
The prime minister didn't know that this person was Lin Kite at first, but now when he saw that it was Lin Kite, he suddenly secretly said that it was not good in his heart, afraid that Lin Kite and Zhao Yun would quarrel.
Seeing that Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, Zhao Yun realized that his tone was wrong, so he slowed down his tone, but he still said firmly: "Kite, no, you can't go." ”
"Then I'll go out first, you guys talk slowly, just call me if you need to."
The prime minister felt that there was already a strong smell of gunpowder in the air now, and there was only one fire left, so he hurriedly got up and retreated, leaving space for the two of them.
Seeing that the prime minister had gone out, Zhao Yun walked to Lin Kite's side and hugged her in his arms, and changed the topic and said, "Kite, you are awake, are you sleepy, do you want to sleep for a while." ”
"Ah Yun, don't divert the topic, I said that I would enter the palace to poison the pavilion master." Of course, Lin Yuan couldn't go along with Zhao Yun's wishes, and she Lin Yuan had to do what she Lin Yuan believed.
"Iris, I don't allow you to go, it's very dangerous in the palace, if something happens to you, what should I do?" Zhao Yun knew that this matter could not be prevaricated, so he had to answer positively.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself and won't let anything happen to me." Lin Kite reassured.
"Kite, have you forgotten that the pavilion master knows you, and you can't get close to him at all." Zhao Yun then made excuses.
"Ah Yun, have you forgotten? I've got skin, a mask! It's going to be fine, don't worry. Lin Yuan blinked and looked at Zhao Yundao.
"No, I won't allow you to go, no matter what you say." Zhao Yun saw that Lin Kite was going to go no matter what, so he let go of Lin Kite and turned his back on the tough road.
Today is the second time that Zhao Yun has spoken to Lin Yuan in such a tone, and Lin Yuan suddenly lost his temper, feeling that Zhao Yun didn't want to let him share the burden for him.
"Why don't you let me go, don't you want me to share the burden for you?" Lin Yuan said in a cold voice.
"No, I'm just worried about your safety." Zhao Yun's cold voice came.
"I said I wouldn't be fine, why didn't you let me go." Although Lin Kite's voice was cold, her eyes seemed to be able to speak, and slowly there were only three words, "let me go".
"Kite, I don't dare to bet, if something happens to you, I will blame myself for the rest of my life, so don't say it, I won't let you go, if you're bored, go to the garden in the prime minister's mansion, I'll go to the prime minister to discuss other ways."
Zhao Yun didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly walked out, the reason why he turned his back was that he didn't dare to see Lin Kite's eyes, he was afraid that if he saw Lin Kite's eyes for a while, he would not be able to hold on.
"Zhao Yun, you know, no one can change what I insist on, of course, including you."
Looking at Zhao Yun who was evading, Lin Yuan was even more sure that Zhao Yun was unwilling to let himself share the burden for him, Lin Yuan was angry in his heart, so he said hurtful words, of course, hurting others and hurting himself.
Zhao Yun, who had already walked to the door, heard Lin Kite's words, his footsteps paused obviously, he smiled self-deprecatingly, raised his legs and walked out.
