Chapter 28: The sword light coldly approached Ning Ke's chest
"The concubine visits the queen mother, and the queen mother is blessed with Jin'an!" Concubine Tingting stepped forward in a curling manner, and the etiquette was thoughtful and she bowed, showing her charm in every word and deed.
The Queen Mother's eyes swept over her luxurious and gorgeous palace dress, then over the enchanting and delicate makeup, and then over the jeweled body, and then her face sank, and her tone was a little displeased.
"Why does Concubine Shu have time to come to the mourning family today?"
After the concubine heard that it was raining, the queen mother was not happy again, so she came to take a look. Concubine Shu explained with a soft smile, and motioned to the palace maid to offer the tray, "The concubine also brought some high-quality old ginseng over to make up for your body." ”
Ning Ke drank tea quietly, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of this lady's gorgeous dress, and he couldn't stop sneering in his heart.
Since ancient times, no mother-in-law likes to show off her flowers, especially when her mother-in-law is sick, she dresses so gorgeously, is this to show off?
The Queen Mother waved her hand lazily, and let people take it down without looking at it, and mentioned lightly, "Well, I have a heart." Come, give a seat. ”
Concubine Shu sat down on the lower side, her eyes naturally fell on Ning Ke, as if she had just seen her, and covered her mouth in amazement and exclaimed, "Ah, isn't this Ke'er?"
Ning Ke took a sip of tea and sighed - it's just a lack of IQ, how can even her acting skills be so poor! Such a future mother-in-law is not competitive!
"Back to Niangniang, Ke'er came early in the morning. Ning Ke smiled faintly, and his words sounded quite polite, but when the smart person heard it, he knew that there was a mockery in his words - she came early in the morning, but you didn't see it!
Concubine Shu smiled lightly, her eyes fluttering, "I heard that you were seriously ill before, but now it seems to be better." Ke'er is really filial, and as soon as she gets well, she comes to visit the Queen Mother. As he spoke, he seemed to remember something sad, and he choked up when he pulled up his handkerchief, "This palace doesn't have this blessing, since Yuxuan was ordered to think about it, our mother and son haven't seen it." ”
The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Shu's crying appearance, her face sank, and her tone became a little colder, "Ke'er was called by the mourning family, you can't blame her for this! As for Yu Xuan, if he hadn't gotten close to Miss Nan Ning Er regardless of etiquette and made a fuss outside, the emperor would not have been like this! As Yu Xuan's mother, you should discipline more in the future, so as not to cause gossip again!"
Ning Ke secretly glanced at the Queen Mother, and was a little more moved in her heart, the Queen Mother really loved her.
Concubine Shu was afraid that she didn't expect the Queen Mother to be so partial to Ning Ke, her face changed, and she said unconvinced: "Yuxuan is definitely not that kind of person, the rumors cannot be believed, maybe it is a conspiracy of someone with a heart!"
The Queen Mother glanced at her coldly, "Whether the mourning family is a rumor or not, but now it is rumored to be boiling, if he is really innocent, how can he be caught in the sore spot? When such a thing happened to the prince, where did this make the royal face go? Where did Ning Guogong's face go? This marriage contract was also proposed by the mourning family, you let the mourning family be so worthy of Ke'er?"
Concubine Shu's willow eyebrows froze, her face was displeased, "The queen mother's words seem to be serious! It's just a rumor from someone who doesn't know!"
"Concubine Shu, pay attention to your identity!" the Queen Mother was annoyed and shouted, "Don't think that you can be presumptuous in front of the mourning family with the support of your relatives!"
Concubine Shu bit her lip, looking unconvinced, but she didn't dare to say anything more.
Ning Ke watched from the sidelines, and he had already seen the situation clearly.
Although the queen mother is the mother of the son of heaven, but is not the emperor's real biological mother, the emperor's biological mother died at an early age, so the young emperor was fostered under the knees of the queen mother who had no children and no daughters, and then the emperor ascended the throne, and the queen mother naturally became the queen mother.
But the Queen Mother was originally a pawn used by the Xishu Kingdom to stabilize politics, and she did not help in the court, if she hadn't lived to this day with extraordinary means for many years, she would have known what happened to be harmed by those concubines.
Even so, there are still many people in the palace who don't take her seriously, such as the powerful concubine in front of her.
Looking at the old man with white temples in front of him, Ning Ke was a little sour, and gently pulled the Queen Mother's hand, "Queen Mother, how can I blame you for this?
At the beginning, the Queen Mother also proposed marriage to the emperor because of her kindness, everyone thought that this was a good marriage, but who knew that Chu Yuxuan would be that kind of person?
The Queen Mother patted her hand and sighed, "Hey, it's good that you don't blame the mourning family." ”
"Naturally not, don't think about it too much, Queen Mother. ”
"Ke'er, what a good girl, hey......"
The two held hands and sympathized with each other, and those who didn't know thought they were kissing mother-in-law and grandson, and they were very close and harmonious.
Concubine Shu sat on the side like an outsider, and when she heard those words, her face became very ugly.
Listen to that meaning, or is his son not worthy of Ning Ke's ugly bastard?!What are you kidding!
No matter how Chu Yuxuan is, he is also the second prince, and he will soon be promoted to the crown prince! As a noble concubine, her relatives are powerful, which is a great help for the second prince to compete for the throne.
And Ning Ke is just a concubine without a mother, and she is ugly and incompetent, how can she be worthy of her own son?
Chu Yuxuan and Ning Yu got close before, she didn't know it, but she just turned a blind eye, and then she heard that Ning Ke was dead, she was happy for a few days, but she didn't expect to sit here now!
In this way, Chu Yuxuan's marriage contract with Ning Ke will have to continue! And Ning Ke will definitely become the laughing stock of Chu Yuxuan's ridicule and an obstacle to ascending to the throne!
No!
She can't let that happen!
With Concubine Shu watching from the side, the Queen Mother didn't have enough fun to chat, and seeing that it was not too early, she reluctantly asked Ning Ke to send her out.
"Queen Mother, don't bother, Ke'er is not a three-year-old child, Ke'er knows the way. Ning Ke rejected her kindness, but had other plans in his heart.
Concubine Shu has waited so long, she has to give people a chance to hurt people, right?
"Queen Mother, Ke'er is right, you are not in good health, it is better to keep some people around. Concubine Shu took the opportunity to say kindly: "The concubine may not have seen Ke'er for a long time, and she wants to talk to Ke'er if she has some close words, so she will send someone to send her out of the palace later." ”
The Queen Mother looked at Concubine Shu, then at Ning Ke, and saw that Ning Ke had no objection, so she nodded.
The corners of her mouth hooked slightly, and a trace of murderous aura flashed between Concubine Shu's red eyebrows, and then she affectionately took Ning Ke's hand out of Yiyang Palace and walked all the way out of the palace.
Ning Ke didn't care, let Concubine Shu hold her, whatever Concubine Shu said, Ning Ke should do anything, very cooperative.
The smile on the corner of Concubine Shu's lips became stronger, and soon she walked to the other side of the palace gate, which was long and long, dim, no one, only the night wind whistling strangely.
"Hey, are you going the wrong way?" Ning Ke asked with an innocent expression.
Concubine Shu sneered, "It's not wrong, it's where you should go!"
As soon as the words fell, Concubine Shu's sharp nails instantly pierced the skin on Ning Ke's arm, Ning Ke only felt numb all over his body, and his limbs reacted half a beat slower.
The next moment, a black shadow suddenly rushed out of the darkness, and the sword light in his hand was cold and straight to Ning Ke's chest.
"Die!"
