Chapter 189
"But since a palace maid sees it, it is inevitable that others will see it, Chen'er, will anyone see you when you send the body out of the palace?" Lu Huiling frowned and asked with a worried expression.
Now in this palace, there are only three of them, and it doesn't matter how they speak freely.
"Isn't my sister still worried about my errands? When I left the palace, it coincided with the start of the hunt, and the Imperial Forest Army was guarding there, plus, I am the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I am the younger brother of the Ming Concubine Niangniang, who will come to search my frame? As soon as the body was sent out, I asked Fang Lu to arrange for someone to lose it, and I hurried back, and no one would know that it was a corpse in my frame along the way. Lu Chen said to Lu Huiling with pride on his face.
"I don't know how the palace maid saw it." Lu Huiling was a little worried, afraid that there would be other people who knew their plan of action, if they said it when the emperor was strictly investigating this matter, it would be a big trouble, and it was not too early to be complacent.
The plan can't catch up with the changes, but fortunately, Lu Huiling didn't interfere in any of them, as long as he made sure that no one saw it, and those who saw it would always shut up, so it would be foolproof.
"Oh, my sister, left and right are just a palace maid, if she is really capable, she will sue the emperor directly, do you still need to risk your own life? You know, no one wants to get into trouble these days. Lu Chen looked at Lu Huiling with a worried look, and couldn't help but laugh at her for being unfounded.
If anyone really knows, they won't choose to go against Lu Xiangfu and Concubine Ming, even if this secret is known, it will rot in the stomach forever.
"What did the palace maid say before she died?" Lu Huiling thought about it carefully and still felt that something was wrong, if this matter was revealed, Mo said that she would never be able to help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again, and even her own life would be guaranteed.
After all, at the Chinese New Year's Eve feast, this kind of day when all nations come to the dynasty and the world celebrates together, she is obstructing it and doing something that makes it difficult for the Celestial Empire to step down in front of all nations, and she really can't let the emperor forgive, if she knows that it is her, I am afraid she will have to blame more.
It is precisely because of this that Lu Huiling felt that if she took a risk on this day, Concubine Mei would never have a day.
However, it is important to make sure that nothing goes wrong.
"I heard that the arrow pierced the heart, and the whole body was pierced by the arrow, where is there still life, I'm afraid I will die without swallowing a few breaths, and what strength will I have to speak." Lu Chen saw Lu Huiling so worried, and his heart was also extremely depressed, women always look forward and backward when they do something, unlike him, they don't think about it anymore, but this is why he always doesn't get the weight.
When Lu Huiling heard Lu Chen say this, he thought of such a scene, and couldn't help frowning slightly, making a disgusting look.
Mrs. Lu on the side was even more difficult to eat, the arrow was not easy to bring in, and she needed to be searched when she entered the palace, but she was the first lady of the order, and she was a woman, and the doorkeeper was not easy to search, so she hid in her clothes and brought it in.
She knows the power of the arrow, her family is a merchant from the business, every time she transports goods and silver treasures, she always has to worry that there will be mountain bandits on the road, the dart masters at home use this kind of three-pronged feather arrow, an arrow down, the blood can not stop at all, if it is not not injured in a fatal position, and finally do not get timely treatment, it will also bleed to death.
Although Mrs. Lu has been accustomed to seeing bloody wind and rain since she was a child, it does not mean that she can accept such a scene, as soon as she heard Lu Chen's description of the sound and color, she put the chopsticks on the table "snap".
Lu Chen and Lu Huiling on the side looked at Mrs. Lu in unison, what are you angry about?
"It's bloody to open and close your mouth, and you don't want people to eat a good meal?!" Mrs. Lu frowned and said, "The annual Chinese New Year's Eve feast was messed up by you, and now you don't even let a hot meal for your mother?" ”
Lu Huiling and Lu Chen glanced at each other, she could clearly feel that Mrs. Lu was not very happy, but she also knew in her heart that her current transformation made her worry and disappointed.
Lu Huiling accompanied the smiling face, after all, this is her mother, she can't be treated like others, she put a chopstick dish on Mrs. Lu's plate, and said with a smile: "Mother, this is the New Year, don't be angry with us, you don't like to listen, we won't say it, come, let's eat with you." ”
Since she was a child, Mrs. Lu has doted on Lu Huiling, and she is loved as the flesh of her heart, she was born in a scholarly family, so she will naturally receive the best culture and etiquette, she has been smart and sensible since she was a child, and Mrs. Lu and Lu Gaohong also have high expectations for her.
Lu Gaohong is quite satisfied with her now, but today's Lu Huiling is not as gentle and lovely as Mrs. Lu imagined, with a gentle and lovely appearance and virtuous quality, since Lu Huiling entered the palace, Mrs. Lu has become more and more ignorant of Lu Huiling, and her appearance seems to be getting more and more mean, far less lovely than the original with a little mellowness.
"I can't eat, I want to go and take a break." Mrs. Lu didn't seem to be very satisfied, and she never picked up the chopsticks to eat a bite of food, so she said this coldly, got up and went to the dormitory arranged for her by Lu Huiling to rest.
Lu Huiling also stood up, she didn't understand why Mrs. Lu was suddenly unhappy, and she obviously didn't say anything more.
But seeing that his mother didn't want to see him now, he gave Lu Chen a look and asked him to follow and comfort his mother's heart, he still had some things to deal with, and it wouldn't be long before Qi Bingyu would thoroughly investigate this matter.
After Mrs. Lu and Lu Chen left, Lu Huiling sat down, facing the table full of delicacies, she didn't have the heart to move her chopsticks at all, she turned her head to Xu Lan behind her and said, "Send these dishes to Lan Yuan Pavilion that I haven't eaten, and in addition... Tell the nobles not to drop the chain at a critical time. ”
Now she has nothing to worry about, just at this last moment, Qi Bingyu will investigate this matter thoroughly, and she will have everything ready by then, which has nothing to do with her, but it is closely related.
Xu Lan summoned a few palace maids, put these plates of exquisite delicacies into the food box, and personally sent them to the nobles.
After Xu Lan left, Qin Xin came forward to pinch Lu Huiling's shoulder, Lu Huiling leaned comfortably on the chaise longue, resting with her eyes, the hustle and bustle outside the palace were all caused by her, but she looked like it had nothing to do with her.

Xu Lan braved the severe cold and bypassed many crowds, for fear of being discovered, and came to Lanyuan Pavilion in secret.
If someone asked along the way, Xu Lan cleverly said that Concubine Ming was sympathetic and sent some snacks to each palace, just like that, no one doubted it, and came to Lanyuan Pavilion safely.
Even on Chinese New Year's Eve, the Lanyuan Pavilion is as lonely as usual, the weeds growing in the brick cracks in the corners of the wall have not yet come to clean up, this is desolate, far from the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor will not come to the Lanyuan Pavilion, I think this is the same silence as the cold palace.
Xu Lan knocked lightly on the door, and it was Ah Xun who came to open the door, and Ah Xun was eating the freshly made rice balls with the nobles, implying reunion.
Today, there are many masters, and the imperial dining room is also close to those noble and important concubines and guests first.
"Are you eating?" As soon as Xu Lan came in, she could feel a trace of warmth, and seeing that they were on fire, she thought that she had burned all the charcoal fires in the future.
After all, you won't need it anymore.
Ah Xun looked at the nobleman who was sitting at the table and bowed his head to eat rice balls, and then said to Xu Lan: "Aunt Xu Lan come in and come in." ”
Xu Lan naturally walked in unceremoniously, smiled at the nobleman, and then took out the dishes in her food box one by one and put them in front of the nobleman, and said with a smile: "Nobleman, don't eat your glutinous rice balls, Concubine Ming specially asked me to send them to you, it's still hot, eat it while it's hot." ”
The nobleman watched her bring out the exquisite dishes one by one, and then slowly put down the spoon in her hand, and stood up to look at the table full of dishes, fragrant.
Seeing that the nobles looked at these dishes intently, Xu Lan said with a smile: "These are all imperial gifts, and Concubine Ming is reluctant to eat them, so she specially gave them to the nobles to try them, and the nobles should eat them quickly." ”
The nobleman raised his head and looked at Xu Lan, looked at it for a while, stared at Xu Lan and felt cold, and then slowly said: "Did Concubine Ming take Yin Xue as a beggar?" ”
The nobles could see that the dish of steamed fish was obviously taken away, and it was thought that Concubine Ming couldn't finish it, so she asked Xu Lan to reward herself.
Maybe in the past, the nobles didn't care about this, and they wouldn't say such things that made the other party unable to get off the stage, but now it's different, at this last moment, Lu Huiling doesn't want her to have an accident, so she naturally wants her to go according to the original plan.
As soon as Xu Lan heard this, her face instantly couldn't hold back, she was stunned for a while, smiled awkwardly and said, "What did the noble man say...... Concubine Ming also said that you will be able to adapt to your own situation when the time comes... Don't... Don't spoil her good deeds...... The nobleman ate first, and since the slave and maid had arrived, they left first. ”
After speaking, Xu Lan fled as if she wanted to go back to Minghua Hall, the eyes of the nobles seemed to see through her, she had never seen such a look, desperate but with a trace of undeniable dignity.
After Xu Lan left, Ah Xun slowly approached the nobleman, looked at the table full of delicacies, and said, "The noble... Or maybe you have some... After all..."
After all, this may be the last meal.
When the emperor condemns Mei Guifei, Mei Guifei will inevitably say that it was Xue Guiren who instigated her to implement this game system, and the emperor will definitely not be able to spare her at that time.
