Chapter 45: Two Birds with One Stone

Originally, he wanted to keep his eyes open until dawn by the fire, but Mu Ling suddenly rose and fell, his eyelids were almost open, and he guarded the fire, and fell asleep little by little.

Throughout the night, she was shrouded in nightmares and slept very unsteadily.

As soon as it was dawn, she was awakened.

The sky was already a little dazzling, and the wind was cooler, Mu Ling looked down and found that the fire had been extinguished at some point.

Shiqin curled up in a ball, still sleeping.

Mu Ling searched around, found a wooden basin, went to the well to fetch water to wash, and his body was very uncomfortable.

It's just that when she waited by the water for a long time and returned to the main hall, Shiqin was still sleeping.

With red cheeks, Mu Ling subconsciously touched her forehead.

Boiling hot.

It burned up?!

There is no medicine in the cold palace, Mu Ling has lived here before, even if she is sick, she has to hand over a lot of silver money and hand it over to the inner supervisors to dredge, in exchange for a bowl of medicine residue that has been cooked I don't know how many times.

She frowned, took the wooden basin and went to the well to fetch water.

There is no medicine, and I don't know when someone will come to save her, but Shiqin's illness can't be delayed, the well water is cold, hoping to lower her body temperature.

Breakfast was brought long after the sun had risen, and the inner prisoners had brought it like pig food, with rancid swill and sour dry rice......

Mu Ling didn't eat anything, after eating this kind of thing, I was afraid that he would have returned to heaven if he didn't starve to death.

She ran into the courtyard, dug up some wild vegetables to eat raw, and fed the squire some water.

At three o'clock in the morning, the silent wooden door was finally opened.

"Lady Lady?" Chun Tao put his hands white, pushed open the door, looked around, and was shocked by Mu Ling.

The day before was fine, but I haven't seen it all night, Mu Ling's description is already very embarrassing, except that the clothes are brighter, and there is no difference between them and the other concubines in this cold palace.

Chun Tao, the big palace maid next to Concubine De.

"Niangniang suffered, Concubine De asked the slave maid to go over and take a look at you." Chun Tao said, carrying a huge food box in her hand.

She glanced at the stinking bucket of swill by the door, almost vomited all the overnight meal, and was a little farther away, and handed the food box over.

The person who knows the times is Junjie, although they all live in Yaohua Palace, but Mu Ling and Concubine De have never had any communication, and they should only be invisible to each other, and now she is in trouble, and Concubine De is the first person to come, no matter what the purpose is...... Mu Ling still took the food box, thanked him repeatedly, and began to eat.

Chun Tao wanted to speak a few times and stopped, Mu Ling finally filled his stomach, had some strength, and asked: "When Chun Tao girl came, you could see my handmaids?" I wonder how they're doing? ”

As if waiting for Mu Ling to ask this, Chun Tao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Sister Gongyan, they are fine, the queen mother was originally going to punish the crime, thanks to our mother, Sister Rongyan is still in Yaohua Palace, but they are not free." ”

That's why it's a spring peach.

It's good that he didn't suffer any grievances, Mu Ling thought and let go.

In addition to food, Chun Tao also brought some medicine.

While talking, Chun Tao looked at Mu Ling, and on her beautiful face, the red spots subsided, but she was still a little swollen, not very good-looking.

A trace of disdain flashed on Chun Tao's face, and she smiled reservedly, which made people mistakenly dazzled.

Mu Ling has no intentions, and she is still down, even a dog is more expensive than her.

Over the years, watching from the sidelines, Concubine De Niangniang is a soft-hearted person.

Of course, the premise is that Mu Ling didn't bump into Concubine De who came from Liang Chu the next moment he wore it.

The woman was not as gentle and harmless as she seemed.

Therefore, there must be other purposes for sending medicine and food this time.

But now that she is in the cold palace, what else can Concubine De use?

Mu Ling remembered the scene when she saw Concubine De Niangniang outside the cold palace before the death of the noble Duyun - her purpose, to kill the queen.

She is in the **, Concubine De thinks that this is made by the queen's mother, so she wants to mix with one foot?

No matter how much she wants, it is also a groundless speculation, and she has to inquire quietly. However, Chun Tao, as a first-class palace maid in Yaohua Palace, is not stupid.

After asking a few words, Mu Ling felt that this girl's slippery hands were not slippery.

"The lyre girl has a fever?"

Chun Tao saw that Mu Ling was feeding water and medicine to Shiqin, but the latter didn't react at all, so she took the initiative to ask.

"Yes," Mu Ling thought for a moment and said apologetically, "I wonder if I can ask the girl to help find a doctor to take a look?" ”

Chun Tao was stunned, and said with a smile: "If you don't want to be invited, the slave will go." ”

Originally, the master's intention was to find out the origin of the red spots on Concubine Shu's body, and this time, it was with her.

After the people are gone, the cold palace is even more boring.

Mu Ling was very idle, thinking of Tao Mingyue last night, compared to Concubine De who hid needles in the mian, she liked the former more.

She smiled softly, held the grass in her mouth, and watched the clouds roll in the sky.

waited from noon to noon, but did not wait for the imperial doctor, but waited for the angry queen Su Nianru.

Since she moved to Yaohua Palace, the queen has stopped thinking about making trouble with her, as if she is afraid of being planted in the hands of Concubine De.

Su Nianru raised her eyebrows coldly, and raised her hand at Mu Ling to hit.

Mu Ling was not stupid again, standing there and letting her beat, bending down and saluting, just to avoid the palm wind.

"The concubine visits the ...... of the mother"

Su Nianru staggered, stretched out his hand and kicked Mu Ling, who fell backwards, full of eyes: "Niangniang......"

Su Nianru was rampant in the palace, and the battle was only the power of the Su family.

She wanted to beat someone, and Mu Ling could only show weakness.

"Cheap things, I don't know how to be honest, but I dare to pour dirty water on the head of this palace." Su Nianru scolded hatefully, obviously with a belly of bad luck.

"The concubine doesn't know what the mother means."

"I don't know? You people, who are accustomed to pretending, cry to Your Majesty at every turn, saying the rights and wrongs of this palace! Seeing that I said a few words to my brother at home, I dared to report to the Empress Dowager of Shoukang Palace, what else do you dare not do, you don't know?! Su Nianru's eyes were particularly angry, and there was a looming murderous intent.

But now, she must not do it herself. If you are angry again, you must hold back.

Mu Ling didn't hear anything else from her words - she had never seen the queen's brother, how could she ever see the two talking?

Involved in Shoukang Palace again, Mu Ling instantly understood that the crux of the queen's desire to kill her before was actually here.

There were tears in her eyes, and she was innocent and pitiful: "The concubine entered the cold palace directly from the Qianqing Palace last night, and she was ignorant, and she didn't know why she had a rash on her body, which made Her Majesty angry, how could she have the time and opportunity to splash dirty water on your mother?" ”

Su Nianru looked at her coldly, full of hesitation.

Mu Ling continued: "As for what to report to Shoukang Palace, the concubine doesn't understand even more - when the concubine is at home, the door does not go out, and the second door does not step, so I really don't know which one is your brother." Besides, if you talk to your brother, why should the concubine report it to the Queen Mother? ”

Su Nianru's anger was like being poured a scoop of cold water, and she looked at her in a daze-yes, how could Mu Ling know her brother?

That day, Su Nianru remembered it very clearly.

She was summoned by the Queen Mother, only saying that when she and her brother bought and sold officials and traded money, they were discovered by Mu Ling - the Queen Mother nodded a few words and did not tear her face, but she still endured the pain and gritted her teeth and sent millions of taels of silver tickets to Shoukang Palace......

Even, in order to kill Mu Ling, the informant, and add the insider, she also put the Duyun nobles and Hui Concubine in!

, at that time, Concubine De stared at her so tightly, just to catch her, she hurriedly took care of Mu Ling, and almost fell into the hands of Concubine De......

The queen mother's strategy of killing two birds with one stone is really vicious.

Now that she looked at Mu Ling, she obviously understood, I was afraid that Mu Ling had inadvertently learned some secrets of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother would use her own hands to get rid of her who was still Mu Guiren at the time.

Su Nianru figured this out and broke out in a cold sweat.
