Chapter 69: Hiding a knife in a smile
Miss is a miserable person, so why force her to do something she doesn't want to do!
Yan Yan didn't say anything anymore, and the three of them were silent all the way, walking in the direction of Muxiyuan.
By this time, the night had come up, and black was like splashing ink, staining the whole land.
Walking to the Imperial Garden, Mu Ling suddenly didn't want to go any further.
The night was thick, the full moon was bright, the night breeze was slightly cool, and the faint starlight was twinkling and blinking.
Mu Ling took a deep breath, stretched out his limbs, and said, "Let's sit in the small pavilion here for a while!" Shiqin, you go to the imperial dining room and bring the wine and food, and the three of us have a drink here to celebrate my mother's resurrection! ”
Mu Ling's words were more shocking than the last.
This time it wasn't just Shiqin who was stunned. Even Yan Yan looked at Mu Ling in a daze.
"Mother, this is not good! You are a concubine, just eat here, how can you still drink! If someone else sees it and sues you from the queen, then we will be in trouble! ”
Yan Yanba said with a bitter face.
Because Shi Qin was trained by Mu Ling just now, he had palpitations and didn't dare to speak.
"Yes, mother, let's go back! Back at Muxiyuan, you can drink as much as you want! Shiqin said.
Mu Ling was blown by the night breeze, and his whole body was comfortable, and he completely ignored those damn rules, to hell with it!
"It doesn't matter! Hurry up! I'm waiting for you here! ”
Mu Ling said, rubbing Shiqin's head, as if he felt that his tone just now was a little heavy.
Shiqin was rubbed by Mu Ling's head like this, and the embarrassing atmosphere just now was gone.
Seeing that Mu Ling was resolute, Shiqin had no choice but to go down and go to the imperial dining room.
Mu Ling sat down in the small pavilion, leaned on the railing, and quietly watched the flowers bloom in the night.
Yan Yan didn't bother her, and stood quietly behind Mu Ling.
Suddenly, a concubine walked from the direction of Yaohua Palace.
With a graceful posture and a coquettish expression, he walked as if he still had a burst of fragrant wind.
In the dark night, even butterflies are surrounding her.
Mu Ling straightened up violently and looked carefully at the person coming from the front.
Tao Mingyue!
Mu Ling's pupils suddenly constricted, and he looked at Tao Mingyue who came vigilantly.
At this time, it was already night, and few people in the palace moved around except for the palace maids and eunuchs on duty.
At this time, in the direction Tao Mingyue came, there was only one palace, and that was Yaohua Palace!
Yaohua Palace now lives in Concubine De, and Mu Ling has just been promoted, Liang Chu has not rewarded her with the palace, and Mu Ling also lives in Muxiyuan in this Yaohua Palace.
And Tao Mingyue can't come to find herself, there is only one possibility, Tao Mingyue is here to find Concubine De!
Mu Ling's eyes grew cold, and the relationship between Tao Mingyue and Concubine De didn't know when it was so good!
Yan Yan also secretly felt strange, during the period when Mu Ling was in a coma, a lot of things happened, and Mu Ling didn't know it.
"Niangniang, this Concubine Lan won't go to find Concubine De!" Flue.
Mu Ling sneered, these two don't know what to do when they hook up together!
"Niangniang, this Concubine Lan and Concubine Guifei have obviously defected to the queen, and everyone knows about this, this Concubine Lan is visiting Yaohua Palace at night, I don't know ......" Yan Yan paused.
"Yan Yan, I don't know much about Tao Mingyue and Tao Mingzhu, you tell me everything you know!" Mu Ling looked serious.
"Good! Concubine Lan and Concubine Guifei defected to the queen as soon as they came, and when the two of them asked the queen to say goodbye, they choked with Concubine De, and finally got Concubine De to leave with her sleeves brushed away. ”
Mu Ling frowned, if according to the situation of that day, the relationship between Concubine Lan and Concubine De should be incompatible, but now it seems that it is obviously not like that.
"Moreover, according to the palace people, Tao Mingyue confessed to assassinating her mother when she was in prison, but she said that it was Concubine Lan's idea."
"Oh?" Mu Ling raised his eyebrows.
"But the strange thing is that the Shen Criminal Division only symbolically interrogated Concubine Lan, and the matter was closed. And Tao Mingyue died that night. By the way, that night, Concubine Lan also went to see Tao Mingyue. ”
Mu Ling looked at Concubine Lan who was gradually coming this way, her eyes flowing, this matter is getting more and more interesting!
"What is the relationship between Tao Mingyue and Tao Mingzhu?" Mu Ling asked.
"I don't know the real relationship, anyway, in the eyes of outsiders, the relationship seems to be good. Moreover, Concubine Lan gave Tao Mingyue the first opportunity to serve the emperor at that time, which can be described as a deep sisterhood! ”
The time that Yan Yan has been in this palace is not too short, and of course she knows that what she sees with her eyes is not necessarily true.
"Tomorrow, let Cui Yan investigate the matter of Tao Mingyue and Tao Mingzhu, and finally check the situation of the Tao family for me!"
Mu Ling watched Concubine Lan get closer and closer, stood up, and ended this conversation with Yan Yan.
Mu Ling walked out of the pavilion, holding his hands, standing safely, his eyes were unwavering, and he couldn't see a trace of emotion.
Tao Mingzhu walked in this direction, with a graceful back and a swaying posture.
Seeing Mu Ling, the surprise in Tao Mingzhu's eyes flashed, and then she regained her composure, she didn't seem to expect that she would meet someone so late.
After just a short pause, Tao Mingzhu greeted him and said to Mu Ling with a smile: "Concubine! That's nice! Bengong just went to Muxiyuan, and when I heard that Concubine Shuniang woke up, Bengong came to take a look. ”
Mu Ling smiled quietly and suppressed the contempt in his eyes.
"It's really annoying that Concubine Lan has a heart, it's so late, and I have to trouble Concubine Lan to go. This night, I can't see the road clearly, Concubine Lan has to be careful! ”
Mu Ling played with a bouquet of flowers, and his tone was a little cold.
Tao Mingzhu was obviously stunned again, in her perception of the palace, shouldn't all people hide knives in their smiles? How can it be so straightforward and embarrassing!
Tao Mingzhu smiled awkwardly, as if she also knew that Mu Ling was suspicious of her words.
Tao Mingzhu turned his head and said to Chunya behind him: "Chunya, take out the pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets we gave to Concubine Shuniang!"
Chunya was obviously stunned, and then laughed, and said, "Niangniang, why are you getting more and more forgetful!" When I went to Muxiyuan just now, the lady concubine was not there, you were afraid that the slave would lose the bracelet, so you put it away yourself! ”
"Oh! Right! Look at my brain! ”
Tao Mingzhu laughed, patted his head with a smile, took out the dragon and phoenix bracelet from the water sleeve, and handed it to Mu Ling.
"Concubine Shuniang, this palace thinks that there must be a lot of bird's nest shark fin or something in your place, and this palace will not join in this excitement, so I was lazy and directly transferred the dragon and phoenix bracelet given by the emperor to this palace to Concubine Shu, and I hope that Concubine Shu will not mind!"
Tao Mingzhu had a sincere smile on her face, laughing, looking at that look, it really made people feel that what she said was true.
