Nie Qingwan put down her pen and took Wang Yunyao and Huandong Huanxi to come forward to salute.

Before Tuoba Mingyan came, Empress Chen Dedi was also thinking about how to get the emperor to open his mouth to lift the ban on the barren grass house, and then ask Nie Qingwan to come to her courtyard.

Being able to enter Shoude Palace is a great honor for a new beauty.

Before yesterday, Huamei may have been arrogant and did not accept the queen's favor, but today, she will definitely accept it.

It's just that before the queen can act, Tuoba Mingyan has already taken the lead and came to the Wild Grass House.

When she heard the news, Chen Dedi sneered and squeezed the hand of pandan cardamom, leaned crookedly in the phoenix seat, and drank tea.

After drinking a cup of tea, He Pinxiang took the cup.

After holding it in her arms, she said loudly: "Niangniang, aren't we going to do something?" Let Concubine Ming go to the Barren Grass House like this, the gorgeous people must be very grateful to her, and they will definitely help her vigorously in the future. ”

Chen Dedi played with her long fingernails and smiled indifferently: "If this is the case, then pull it out together with the Huamei, but, in my opinion, the Huamei is not a master to mess with, at first rejected Ming Guifei once, it means that Huamei people do not want to have anything to do with Ming Guifei, if you accept Ming Guifei's kindness today, it can only be said that Huamei is a person who is very good at judging the situation, and when she goes to Yanxia Palace, Ming Guifei may not be able to lower it, maybe she will indirectly help me get rid of this thorn in the eye." ”

She let go of her hand and said, "Let's just sit back and see what happens." ”

The queen wants to make a profit, but she doesn't know that she was in charge of the harem in the past, but now she can't be in charge of the harem.

After Tuoba Mingyan entered the barren grass house, Nie Qingwan led the confidant palace maid to salute.

Tuoba Mingyan stepped forward to help her up, and said with a smile: "I went to the queen to ask for peace that day, my body was a little unhappy, and then I heard that Huamei was sick and suffered from heat stroke, and I really wanted to come and see, but I really couldn't get out of bed, and I didn't have time to send the palace maid over, so I heard that the emperor was confined in the barren grass house, and it was hard to wait for my body to get better, I couldn't help but let myself come and see, and now, Huamei can recover?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "It's no longer in the way, Concubine Lao Ming remembers." ”

Tuoba Mingyan smiled: "They are all my own sisters, how can I not worry about it." ”

As she spoke, she took Nie Qingwan's hand and walked to the long table under the tree, and after she walked in, she saw rice paper on the table, as well as the four treasures of the study, and there were a few lines of small characters scattered on the rice paper, she didn't look at the small characters, but only turned her eyes and asked Nie Qingwan: "Are you practicing calligraphy?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Well, if you're bored, just pass the time." ”

Tuoba Mingyan said: "I live alone in the Yanxia Palace, and most of the time I am bored, is my sister willing to go to the Yanxia Palace to accompany me?" ”

Nie Qingwan raised her head and looked at the woman in front of her.

Since she was rescued by the rest of the Qiang tribe, it has been fifteen years, and fifteen years can change many things, tangible, intangible, face, years, or people's hearts.

Isn't it ironic that she used to call her sister, and now she calls her sister?

And feng shui takes turns, once Tuoba Mingyan knelt at Nie Qingwan's feet, praying for Nie Qingwan's help, and now, Nie Qingwan needs Tuoba Mingyan's help, but, sadly, whether it was in the past or now, Tuoba Mingyan is the first to bow his head.

Her condescension is already a sign that she has lost.

Nie Qingwan smiled lightly and said, "Concubine Ming said on the night I entered the palace that if I refute your kindness, there will be no second time, you are annoyed with me in your heart, why do you want to help me?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan leaned against the table, reached out and picked up the rice paper, and looked at the handwriting on it.

Unfamiliar handwriting, it still looks very lame.

The words of the county lord of Jindong are really ugly.

However, this sentence is very interestingly written - there is no storm, and the sailboat is nothing more than a rag.

Why did she write such a sentence?

Do you know what is happening outside, or do you know that this harem is like a vast ocean, the emperor dominates this sea area, and they look glamorous, but in fact, they are just a ship that only rides the wind and waves, and if they are not careful, the ship will sink into the sea, and the bones will be gone.

Tuoba Mingyan looked at that sentence and didn't say anything for a long time.

Slowly, she put down the rice paper, looked up at the twilight with mottled shadows of the trees, and a faint smile was hooked on the corner of her lips, and said, "I invited Huamei to live in the Yanxia Palace before, but I was too lonely." ”

At such a time, although Tuoba Mingyan didn't want to admit it in her heart, she had to admit that since the Queen Mother left, she had become a lonely person.

Tuoba Mingyan is the person who once followed the Queen Mother, so to speak, he is still a big celebrity.

When the Queen Mother was alive, as we all know, Ren Ji and Yin Xuan were the Queen Mother's two favorite generals, Tuoba Mingyan was by the Queen Mother's side, and she also rose with the tide, even if her status was humble and low, but because of the aura of the Queen Mother around her, she also became the right hand of God.

After the death of the queen mother, Ren Ji disappeared, Yin Xuan was in charge, and Tuoba Mingyan became the favorite of the new emperor, which made the concubines in the harem dissatisfied and dissatisfied, but they were dissatisfied and did not dare to say it in front of Yin Xuan, let alone blatantly chew the root of their tongue in front of Tuoba Mingyan, but they were not close to her, even if she was very favored.

The concubines in the harem either follow the queen's head, or they have their own lives.

Tuoba Mingyan couldn't lower his identity to win them over, so he simply became a loner.

That sounds weird.

Women who have always been favored by the emperor generally have many followers and supporters in the harem, whether they are sincere or false, they will take the opportunity to curry favor with the emperor more.

But in Dayin's harem, this is not the case.

Probably because Yin Xuan was too cold-hearted and cold-hearted, or because Tuoba Mingyan itself exuded the aura of 'don't enter the living', so some people who even wanted to come up to please were discouraged.

Over time, she really became a loner.

The reason why I want the county lord of Jindong to accompany her is because the county lord of Jindong is the same as her, a relict minister, the only difference is that the parents and people of the county lord of Jindong are still alive, and her Tuoba clan has long since ceased to exist.

As a relict minister, she felt that Huamei would be closer to her.

And because he is a relict minister, Tuoba Mingyan is not afraid of what North China Jiao will do.

Because in the eyes of the emperor, the bereaved ministers are not eligible for holy favor.

In addition, Pang Lin's death made Tuoba Mingyan realize that she alone, even if she has Yin Xuan's favor, it is difficult to live in the harem for a long time.

Hua Beijiao is the county lord of Jindong, even if she is no longer favored, she still has the entire Jindong as a backing.

What Tuoba Mingyan wants to get from Huabei Jiao is nothing more than this backing.

has been with the Queen Mother for many years, although he has not learned much, but there is one point, Tuoba Mingyan has learned, that is, what does not belong to him, if he wants it, he must spare no effort to snatch it.

The Queen Mother has been fighting for many years, sweeping down more than 100,000 tribes and summarizing more than 1 million territories, using this concept - snatching.

The Queen Mother is not a good person, but she used her fierceness to create a history of great achievements.

No one can surpass history.

She is really a god, the only god of Da Yin.

Tuoba Mingyan hated the Queen Mother in her heart, the Queen Mother saved her, but destroyed her entire Tuoba clan, making her a complete orphan and a captive, but the Queen Mother saved her and gave her half a life of glory, and she was grateful to the Queen Mother.

Now, Tuoba Mingyan also wants to follow the Queen Mother and plunder what did not belong to her.

It's a pity, if this person is someone else, Tuoba Mingyan will definitely succeed.

Unfortunately, this person is not an outsider, it is the hopeful and unattainable Queen Mother she once served.

Dancing with an axe in front of Luban's gate, isn't it self-cutting?

Nie Qingwan frowned and said: "I have a low status, Concubine Ming doesn't dislike it, and I don't care about previous suspicions, of course I'm happy to accompany it, but the barren grass house is banned, and the emperor said that without his permission, the people of the barren grass house can't go out, otherwise, he will destroy the entire Jindong." ”

Tuoba Mingyan said: "Don't worry about this gorgeous man, since I came, I will definitely bring the emperor's message." ”

Tuoba Mingyan raised his hands to the sky.

Nie Qingwan immediately knelt down to accept the order.

Tuoba Mingyan passed on Yin Xuan's message: "From now on, Huamei people can go to Yanxia Hall to accompany Ming Guifei, and whether the barren grass house can be lifted for a long time depends on whether Huamei can serve Ming Guifei." ”

Tuoba Mingyan finished reading the oracle and went to pull Nie Qingwan again.

Nie Qingwan stood up with her hand, and after standing up, she was a little scared: "I didn't serve anyone when I was in Jindong, if I didn't serve Concubine Ming badly, the emperor would blame me again, but how can I be good?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan said with a smile: "Huamei people are joking, the emperor's overall meaning is to let you accompany me, how can you really let you serve me, there are many people in my palace, you don't need to serve, you just need to talk to me, chat, and relieve boredom." ”

Nie Qingwan asked uncertainly, "It's as simple as that?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan smiled: "How complicated do you want to be?" ”

Nie Qingwan bent down and saluted: "Concubine Xie Ming." ”

Tuoba Mingyan was very happy, and she said, "Do you want to pack your things?" I'll let them help, let's go outside, you've been nesting in the barren grass house for a while, and it's stuffy, I've asked people to clean up the courtyard in the Yanxia Palace, you can live there, and the emperor will come at night after approving the folds, and we can serve the emperor together. ”

If other beauties heard this, they would be very happy.

What a precious opportunity to meet the emperor.

But Nie Qingwan didn't want to see Yin Xuan, she didn't want to take one more look, she didn't want to do it for a moment, but some things were unavoidable, so she went ahead.

Nie Qingwan pretended to be shy and lowered her head, and said softly, "I won't disturb Concubine Ming and the emperor to get along." ”

After speaking, he said that he had something to pack, Tuoba Mingyan immediately called Su He over and asked her to bring some people to help, Nie Qingwan said no, she didn't have many things, it was enough to have Wang Yunyao and Huandong Huanxi.

Tuoba Mingyan was not reluctant, she just asked casually.

When Wang Yunyao took Huandong and Huanxi to pack up their things, Tuoba Mingyan pulled Nie Qingwan outside.

As soon as I walked out, I met Concubine Chen, who rushed to hear the news.

Li Yuchen looked at Tuoba Mingyan holding Nie Qingwan's hand, looking like a sister, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Where are Ming Guifei going to take Huameiren?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan said with a smile: "The emperor gave a decree to let the gorgeous people move to the Yanxia Palace." ”

Li Yuchen's willow-like thin eyebrows were slightly hooked, and the barren grass house was banned, but her Xingchen Palace was not banned, and the entire harem knew about the 'herb killing' incident outside in the past seven days, not to mention the harem, even the officials of the previous dynasty now all knew about it.

This incident seems to be just a murder caused by two subordinates competing for merit, but in fact, it is a battle between Empress Chen and Concubine Ming.

Pang Lin died, and Concubine Ming lost a game.

But the emperor gave the herbs to Concubine Ming, and he still spoiled her, it seems that the queen has lost again.

Now that the battle between Concubine Ming and the queen has started in the harem, at this time, Concubine Ming wants to bring Huamei to her palace, doesn't this mean that she wants to use Huamei as a gunman?

Huamei just entered the palace, and she couldn't figure out the situation in the palace, and she was confined for many days, and Huamei didn't know what was going on outside, but Huamei didn't know, it didn't mean that she Li Yuchen didn't know.

Li Yuchen had a trace of anger on her face, she didn't want to offend Concubine Ming, but she couldn't just watch the beauties in her palace being pulled away as gunmen, she glanced at Nie Qingwan and motioned for her to come forward and speak.

Nie Qingwan lifted the hem of her skirt and was about to take a step, but was held back by Tuoba Mingyan.

Tuoba Mingyan looked at Li Yuchen and said with a smile: "The emperor is still waiting in the Yanxia Palace, if Concubine Chen is fine, she can also go to the Yanxia Hall to sit, if there is something, then we will not delay Concubine Chen, go first." ”

Move the emperor out, even if Li Yuchen wants to stop him, he doesn't have the courage.

Li Yuchen watched Tuoba Mingyan take Nie Qingwan away in front of her.

Wang Yunyao and Huandong Huanxi packed up their things, and together with the convoy, they went to the Yanxia Palace.

This convoy passed through the West Garden, passed through the cold palace that no one cared about, and then went to the Yanxia Palace, which is now very grateful, and almost everyone knows it.

What does Tuotuo Mingyan mean, Nie Qingwan probably knows.

It is nothing more than a demonstration to the Empress.

And she chose Tuoba Mingyan today, then tomorrow will be the queen's sworn enemy.

Tuoba Mingyan is so exciting, it is nothing more than a warning to her, she chose this path today, even if it is a sea of swords and fires, and the wind and rain, she can only grit her teeth and swallow it in her stomach to serve her.

But in the end, being in the center of this power whirlpool, deceitful and unpredictable, who can really be knifed for whom?

In the harem, there are no eternal teammates, only you live and die.

Tuoba Mingyan still underestimated the queen and underestimated her.

Nie Qingwan lived in the Yanxia Palace, and Yin Xuan came over at night, so he naturally saw her.

Nie Qingwan stepped forward to salute and said words of thanks to him.

Yin Xuan looked at her and said without any emotion: "You don't want to thank me, but Ming Guifei, if it weren't for Ming Guifei begging me, I wouldn't have pardoned you, since you moved to Yanxia Palace, then you can serve Guifei well, if there is a mistake, then it is not as simple as confining you." ”

Nie Qing was blessed and said solemnly: "I will definitely serve Concubine Ming well." ”

Yin Xuan said: "It's good if you have this belief. ”

After Yin Xuan finished speaking, he stopped looking at her, pulled Tuoba Mingyan to him, and saw that her face was better than before and her mood seemed to be good, so he stood up with a smile and pulled her to the yard for a walk.

Tuoba Mingyan turned his head and shouted Nie Qingwan as well.

At the end, he turned around and asked Yin Xuan: "The emperor doesn't mind, right?" ”

Yin Xuan's naturally seductive and cold phoenix eyes glanced at her with a smile, and then glanced back at Nie Qingwan, she was wearing a blue palace dress, her black hair was light, her face did not have any rouge color, her head hung slightly, her body was not tall, but it was just right, if she reached out to hug her, it was probably the most comfortable position, she followed step by step, quietly like a transparent person, and the woman who had the audacity to ask him to give her the palace in the imperial study before was like two people.

Yin Xuan retracted his gaze and said to Tuoba Mingyan: "I don't care, it's good if you're happy." ”

Tuoba Mingyan asked Nie Qingwan to follow, don't fall behind.

The moon and stars are scarce, and on the night of midsummer in June, even in the palace, there are countless cicadas chirping, and the night wind is swirling, blowing on the sprinkled moonlight, and the ground is wanton.

Nie Qingwan looked up at the two backs walking hand in hand in front of her, her eyes were as cold as the cold moon in the sky.

Soon she restrained her coldness and followed quietly.

Yin Xuan didn't go too long, he went back to the house with Tuoba Mingyan to eat, and went to the imperial study, he was going to come to the Yanxia Palace in the evening, but the first-class palace maid Cai Fang in the Shoude Palace went to the imperial study and said that the queen was not feeling well, so Yin Xuan went to the Shoude Palace.

I didn't come out again.

Tuoba Mingyan was extremely annoyed, Nie Qingwan sat in the chair below her, looked at her appearance, and said softly: "Niangniang can also take advantage of being unwell to let the emperor come to Yanxia Palace." ”

Tuoba Ming said: "No need, such a method can't hide from the emperor." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "That lady is angry because of this, it's really unwise, she is angry, and the queen is satisfied." ”

Tuoba Mingyan pinched the handkerchief, and his angry face was crooked: "She did it on purpose!" ”

Nie Qingwan lowered her eyes and said: "Even if it is deliberate, the mother can only endure it, although the queen is not favored, but the mother's family is tough, if you go against the queen like this, I am afraid that it will be difficult in the future." ”

Tuoba Mingyan frowned and looked at her coldly: "Are you telling me to let me attach myself to the queen?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "This is a proposal. ”

Tuoba Mingyan sneered: "You sit in my palace, but your heart is towards the queen, you are not afraid of death?" ”

Nie Qingwan smiled and said: "The queen has a strong mother's family to attach to, and you don't, although you have the emperor's favor, but you also see that the emperor will not snub his queen because of you, you are the only emperor in this palace, and the opponent is the entire harem, how can you win?" Relying on the emperor's little favor? ”

She sneered slightly: "Concubine Ming is not so naïve, is she?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan glared at her with a gloomy face.

Nie Qingwan was not afraid, and still said tepidly: "Concubine Ming rescued me from the Barren Grass Residence, just to let me help you, and all I can think of is to support the power of the imperial court." ”

Tuoba Mingyan glanced at Hong Luan and Su He, and Hong Luan and Su He immediately cleared all the palace people in the hall, leaving only Hong Luan, Su He, Wang Yunyao and Huandong Huanxi, Tuoba Ming Yan said: "Huamei people have a good plan? ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Since Concubine Ming Guifei brought me out of the barren grass house, she naturally has her own method, you can talk about your method first." ”

Tuoba Ming Yan said: "Support the mother family of Huamei." ”

Nie Qingwan raised her eyebrows: "Jindong's relics? ”

Tuoba Ming said: "Yes." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "I am very grateful to Concubine Ming for her support, but the relics of Jindong can't." ”

Tuoba Mingyan asked, "Why?" ”

Nie Qingwan thought to herself, why? Because they are the remnants of Jindong, not only in Yin Xuan's heart, they can't be reused, but also in the hearts of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military officials, they can't be reused, this has nothing to do with the question of faith and loyalty, but the Great Yin National Policy is like this.

The bereaved can enjoy all the glory and wealth in Dayin, but they cannot win power.

Nie Qingwan said: "Don't you know that Da Yin does not allow the remnants to hold real power? ”

Tuoba Ming said: "I know, but I have to try." ”

Nie Qingwan sneered: "What to try?" Take the emperor's favor to you? Then you really despise the emperor, in the emperor's heart, nothing is as important as his country, if you really do this, you will definitely lose the emperor's favor. ”

Tuoba Mingyan said affirmatively: "No." ”

Nie Qingwan raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a little puzzlement.

Tuoba Mingyan smiled: "Don't worry, no matter what I do, the emperor will not snub me." ”

In this sentence, she is really confident enough!

Nie Qingwan sneered in her heart, but her face was silent, and after a while, she said: "I heard Hong Luan say that her brother Pang Lin was involved in a murder case because of a medicinal herb, and was finally sentenced to death, and another related character, Wu Ping, although he was also dead, but he was on an errand in the Yanxia Palace, but he was the queen's person, right?" ”

This matter is no secret in today's harem, Nie Qingwan just came out, she may not know, but as long as she goes out for a while, she will definitely know, Hong Luan told her, and there is nothing wrong with it.

It's just that when did Hong Luan get so broken?

Tuoba Mingyan raised his head and glanced at Hong Luan lightly, Hong Luan lowered his head and said in a low voice, "The slave knows that she is wrong. ”

After saying that, his eyes turned red.

Tuoba Mingyan sighed lightly, thinking that Pang Lin had just died, she was sad and sad, probably happened to be seen by Nie Qingwan, so she said it, she didn't complain about her, what did she do with red eyes.

Tuoba Ming said: "You go down." ”

Hong Luan replied and stepped back.

Tuoba Mingyan said to Nie Qingwan: "That's right, there is such a thing. ”

Nie Qingwan asked Wang Yunyao to pour her a cup of tea, she slowly drank a cup of water with a teacup, and then said unhurriedly: "This incident sounds suspenseful, but in fact, after careful analysis, it is not difficult to discern the key points, the medicinal materials are from Wu Ping's hands, and Wu Ping is the queen's person, the queen's status is noble, and the mother's family is deep-rooted, it is not difficult to get a magical medicinal material, if you want me to say, that medicinal material is likely to be used by the queen as bait, plus there are people from his Chen family in the Criminal Department, no matter how much trouble this matter is, She is not afraid that she will not be able to close the scene, so I suggest that Niangniang take the lead in pulling out the nail of the criminal department, and now that things have not cooled down, take Chen Yu under the knife. ”

Chen Yu is a waiter from the Criminal Department of the Fourth Grade, and it is not easy to take him down, plus he is a member of the Chen family, it is even more difficult.

Tuoba Mingyan frowned and said: "Your idea is really bold, first, Chen Yu is a member of the Chen family, if you want to take him down, you have to spend a lot of effort, even if you take it, the Chen family will not let me go, what is the status of the Chen family in the court now?" Not to mention the people of the Chen family, even the people next to the Chen family, they have to lift their heads. ”

Nie Qingwan smiled: "Don't you dare? ”

Tuoba Mingyan choked, her face was not good-looking, she pursed her lips and said coldly: "You don't have to provoke me, the current Chen family is not something you and I can move." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "The only way to completely solve the crisis is to uproot the Chen family, only in this way can you really sit back and relax." ”

Tuoba Ming said: "Needless to say, I won't do this." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "I didn't say let Niangniang do it, such a thing, of course, it is best to stay out of the matter." ”

Tuoba Mingyan twisted his eyebrows and sneered: "Looking at the entire court, no one dares to go against the Chen family. ”

Nie Qingwan smiled: "Really? ”

She put down the teacup in her hand, took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth, and then said in a lukewarm voice: "Now the current officials are extremely stammering, slapping horses, and the Chen family is not a heinous family, the dictatorship and confusion of the government or something must be punished, the Qing officials will not provoke right and wrong for no reason, and the faint officials only look to their horses, and want to find someone who dares to attack the Chen family and is willing to attack the Chen family and has the ability to bring down the Chen family, there is really nothing." However, don't forget, in Dayin, there is also a Nie clan. ”

The word Nie came out, Tuoba Mingyan was so frightened, she jumped up from the chair seat directly without any image, her whole body was cold, her eyes widened in horror, and she trembled and said: "You, you, don't tell me, you want to use the Nie family!" ”

Compared to Tuoba Mingyan's frightened look, Nie Qingwan was much calmer.

She said lightly: "Exactly." ”

Tuoba Mingyan endured the frightened breath in his throat, grabbed Nie Qingwan's hand, and said sharply: "Dispel this kind of thought, let's not talk about whether you have the ability to contact the Nie family, even if you have, the Nie family is not something you can use if you want to, even if the Nie family has disappeared from the court, but the bones and soul of the Nie family are still standing, not to mention that you are the daughter of a relict minister, even the emperor, and you can't see the current head of the Nie family, you actually dare to talk about using the Nie family, do you take yourself too seriously or are you really not afraid of life and death?" ”

Nie Qingwan laughed out loud.

Life-and-death?

She has already experienced life and death, so why be afraid?

Nie Qingwan raised her head lightly and looked at Tuoba Mingyan, at that moment, it was clear that Tuoba Mingyan was standing, she was a concubine of Ming, and the woman sitting there was just a beauty who had just entered the palace, whether it was her current standing posture or her identity, she was much taller than the woman sitting there, but her action of raising her head, the eyes that shot over, made Tuoba Mingyan feel a chill for no reason.

This feeling, this feeling...... A look of indifference and disdain, and a gratuitous awe...... Why is it so familiar?

Thinking of that person, Tuoba Mingyan's eyes turned red.

But just because she thought of that person, the tip of her heart seemed to be planted with thorns.

Impossible, how can the daughter of a relict have the momentum of that god-like queen mother!

Tuoba Mingyan went to grab that look again, but Nie Qingwan lowered her head, took the teacup from Wang Yunyao's hand, and then looked up, the look was soft and ordinary.

Is it a delusion?

Tuoba Mingyan breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking that Nie Qingwan had mentioned the Nie family just now, her heart rose again, and she said: "Today is in my palace, I shouldn't have heard it, and I won't let anyone spread it, but you must remember that if you want to live safely in the palace, you have to mention it again." ”

She stepped back into the chair behind her and waved her hand, "I'm tired, you can stand down." ”

Nie Qingwan put down the teacup she had taken two sips of, stood up and said goodbye.

When she returned to Chunming Courtyard, Wang Yunyao grabbed her and rushed into the inner room.

As soon as she entered the inner room, Wang Yunyao shook her off and almost asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Nie Qingwan flicked her sleeves, looked up and asked with a smile, "What are you doing?" ”

Wang Yunyao said: "You are instigating Concubine Ming. ”

Nie Qingwan raised her eyebrows, glanced at Huandong and Huanxi, who were standing there and wanted to speak, and asked, "You two think the same way?" ”

Huandong said: "Little master, don't you know what the Nie family means in Dayin?" ”

Nie Qingwan supported her chin lightly, thinking a little, but she didn't seem to know how to answer after thinking for a long time, she used to know what the Nie family meant in Dayin, but now, she really didn't know, she asked rhetorically: "Huandong, what do you think it means?" ”

Huan Dong said: "It means taboo." ”

Huanxi nodded in agreement: "Yes, little master, what Concubine Ming said today is right, let's not mention the Nie family in the future." ”

Nie Qingwan calmly 'oh', thinking to herself, it turned out to be a taboo, and yes, now the Nie family, I'm afraid that no one dares to mention it again, and no one dares to fight the idea of the Nie family.

Nie Qingwan smiled and said, "I know." ”

Huandong Huanxi and Wang Yunyao finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her listening, the little master really beat the idea of the Nie family, which was even more serious than the emperor snubbing her!

Seeing that it was getting late, Huandong stepped forward to ask Nie Qingwan if she wanted to rest, Nie Qingwan stood up and followed into the inner room.

Huanxi didn't go in, and stood outside with Wang Yunyao.

Huanxi said: "How could the little lord think of letting Concubine Ming use the Nie family, she simply startled me when she said this. ”

Wang Yunyao said: "I'm also scared, haven't you seen Concubine Ming?" She was scared. ”

Huanxi said: "But the little master seems to be very calm. ”

Wang Yunyao squinted, yes, it was very calm, the calm was weird, but she had to admit that her proposal was very good, and now in the court, there is really only the Nie family who can resist the Chen family and dare to resist the Chen family.

However, how can the county lord be able to invite someone from the Nie clan?

If you don't say that you can't be invited, even if you mention it, you shouldn't dare, but she has no scruples, where does she have the courage and confidence?

Wang Yunyao felt that something was wrong with Hua Beijiao since she woke up, judging from all the things that happened after entering the palace during this period of time, Hua Beijiao was really wrong.

Wang Yunyao frowned, waved his hand at Huanxi and said: "We serve the little master, no matter what the little master says or does, we just listen and do it, if we have any doubts in our hearts, the little lord will give us answers in the future, the little lord is the lord of Jindong, everything she does is all for the sake of Jindong, if it is just not favored, it is nothing, but if it is used as a gun, we can't watch it, the little lord has his own heart in his heart, and he is bold in speaking and doing things, but in this deceitful harem, if the little lord does not strike first, It will definitely be eaten by mermaids, and when the time comes, not to mention that your and my lives will not be guaranteed, even the county lord and the entire Jindong will be in danger. ”

Huanxi listened, his heart sank, and he said: "What does the king mean, do you agree with the little lord to instigate the Ming concubine to use the Nie family?" ”

Wang Yunyao looked at Huanxi.

Huanxi was inexplicably looked at, touched his head, and said sullenly: "Why does the king steward look at me like this?" ”

Wang Yunyao retracted her gaze, turned her head to look at the moonlight hanging high in the air outside the Xuan Corridor, and murmured: "Since the death of the Queen Mother, this is the first time that someone has mentioned the Nie family so justifiably and blatantly, and said that they want to use the Nie family, I just think that the little master's heart is a little unfathomable." ”

Huanxi nodded in agreement, thinking to himself, the previous little master was not like this.

After Nie Qingwan lay down, Huandong turned off the lights and retreated to go out.

When the girls outside saw that the lights were out, someone went to report to Tuoba Mingyan.

Tuotuo Mingyan hadn't slept yet, because Nie Qingwan mentioned the Nie family today, her mood was too fluctuating, and closing her eyes after lying down was what had happened, and she remembered it vividly.

She called for Soho to come in and serve.

Su He picked up the lamp, lifted the curtain, and saw Tuoba Mingyan sitting on the head of the bed, not sleeping at all, so he couldn't help but be slightly startled, and whispered: "Why is Niangniang leaning here?" ”

Tuoba Ming said: "I can't sleep." ”

Soho asked, "Is it too hot?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan shook his head and stretched out his hand, Su He then gently pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed, first put shoes on her, and then helped her up, seeing that Tuoba Mingyan was going outside, Su He said: "Niangniang, it's getting late." ”

Tuoba Ming said: "It's okay, just walk in front of the porch." ”

Soho had no choice but to pick up a lamp to keep up.

Standing in front of the corridor, Tuoba Mingyan leaned crookedly on the pillars and beams, holding on to the wooden railing with both hands, and she asked Suhe, "Did you hear what Huamei said today?" ”

Su He bowed his head and whispered, "Niangniang." ”

Tuoba Mingyan turned around and looked at her: "Suhe, although you and I are the master and servant, I have always regarded you as the most trusted person, and others dare not say it, and I don't want to say it, I hope you can say it." ”

Su He said: "Since Niang Niang trusts Su He so much, Su He will not let Niang Niang down, what Hua Mei said today, the slave and maid did hear it clearly, and the slave felt that although Hua Meiren's words were bold and presumptuous, it was worth listening. ”

Tuoba Mingyan rubbed his fingers and said in a low voice, "Go on." ”

Su He looked left and right, took a step forward, and whispered: "Niangniang, in the past three years, we have fought with the queen many times openly and secretly, and each time we didn't get cheap, although the emperor is very fond of the mother, but the queen attaches the same importance to the queen, this is nothing more than because the queen has a strong maternal family, if there is no maternal family, she will not be able to sit firmly in the queen's position." ”

Tuoba Mingyan said with a smile: "You think so, others also think so, but the Chen family has been one of the nobles of the three princes since the period of Emperor Yin Zu, and shared the court with the Nie family and the Xia family, although later the Nie family had a queen mother, the Chen family and the Xia family were far from catching up, but in the end, the Chen family was an important minister during the period of Emperor Yin Zu, not to mention that there is no Nie family and Xia family in the court today, only the Chen family is dominant, even if the Nie family and the Xia family are still there, this Chen family is not something we can afford to provoke." ”

Su He said: "But because of this, I have to pull out the Chen family." ”

Tuoba Mingyan understands what Suhe means, but she is not a casual twenty-eight woman, she has experienced violence, murder, escape, rescue, extermination, scenery and other life situations, and has followed the Empress Dowager Da Yin for so many years, no matter how bad she is, she still knows what to do and what not to do.

Indeed, if the Chen family does not fall, Queen Chen will never fall.

But if you want to bring down the Chen family, it's not a matter of one or two sentences, it's possible that the Chen family didn't bring it down, but she herself was uprooted.

This is a very dangerous move.

It's not that she didn't dare to take risks, thinking that back then, she helped Yin Xuan kill the Queen Mother, which was also a risky move, but she still did it without hesitation, she dared to do it at that time, and she dares now.

It's just that at that time, she trusted Yin Xuan.

But now, she can't trust North China Jiao.

The daughter of a relict minister, how can he be able to use the Nie family and bring down the Chen family?

Oh, that's a shame.

Tuoba Mingyan said: "I understand, but with only one North China Jiao, do you think we can succeed?" ”

Soho pursed her mouth.

Tuoba Ming said: "If the Chen family is so easy to eradicate, then this great Yin is not at the mercy of others?" ”

Su He whispered, "That's what Niang Niang said. After a pause, he suddenly frowned, snorted, and said, "If it weren't for the fact that this gorgeous woman had just entered the palace, didn't know much about the situation in the court, and was a little stupid as a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, the slave would have thought that she was thinking of harming her mother." She asked quietly, "Niangniang, this gorgeous woman can't be the queen's spy, right?" Do we need to be careful? ”

After Wu Ping's incident happened in Yanxia Palace, Tuoba Mingyan instructed Hongluan and Suhe to check all the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, but all those who came from unknown sources, or who did things casually, and were not loyal enough to her, were all arranged to leave unconsciously, and now the palace maids and eunuchs on errands in Yanxia Hall are all loyal to Tuoba Mingyan.

The queen wants to be a demon again, but she can't do it.

If this gorgeous woman is openly close to her, but secretly helps the queen to do things, then she will really dig a pit for herself.

Thinking of the last time she invited this gorgeous woman to live in Yanxia Palace, she refused softly and firmly, and personally ran to the imperial study to find the emperor to give the palace, making it clear that she didn't want to have anything to do with her, but today, she came without hesitation.

Maybe today she is trapped and can only cling to her.

But in the end, this woman's loyalty is debatable.

Whether she was forced to live with her because she had no choice but to be commensurate with her sisters, or whether she had already set her heart on the queen and lived in her palace, just pushing the boat down the river, it was really hard to say.

Tuoba Mingyan narrowed his big eyes with a little amber and sneered: "Whether it's the queen's person or not, let's try it and find out." ”

Soho asked, "How do you try?" ”

Tuoba Mingyan said: "Didn't she want to use the Nie family to deal with the Chen family?" Then let her do it. ”

Soho was shocked, "Huh? ”

Tuoba Mingyan said lukewarmly: "Don't be surprised, Chen Yu killed Pang Lin, I really have to settle this account with him, since Huamei people have the heart to punish this Chen Yu, then leave it to her to do it, tomorrow morning you go to Chunming Courtyard, and say to Huameiren, if she can drive Chen Yu out of the criminal department with her own ability, and let no one find out about Yanxia Palace, then I will make a proposal to the emperor, so that the remnants of Jindong have the opportunity to come to the court to be officials, make contributions, and no longer have to be a vain prince and general." ”

Su He whispered, "Yes." He glanced at the sky again and said, "Niangniang, it's really late, it's time to sleep." ”

Tuoba Mingyan turned around and entered the house in the night.

At dawn the next day, Suhe went to Chunming Courtyard, at this time Nie Qingwan had just woken up, and she was not fully dressed, and when she saw Suhe coming, she was very surprised and asked, "Is Niangniang awake?" Do you want me to come and serve now? ”

Su He smiled: "Although the rank of the little master is much lower than that of my mother, but in the end he is also half a master, how can I let you serve?" My mother hasn't woken up yet, I'm just here to pass on a word to the gorgeous people about my mother's mother, and I'll leave after passing it. ”

Nie Qingwan was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, Huandong was pulling her hair, Huanxi was putting a silver basin on the washstand, and after listening to Suhe's words, the two looked at Suhe in unison.

Nie Qingwan didn't turn around, only glanced at Su He through the reflection of the bronze mirror, and said with a smile: "You say, what does Niangniang command." ”

Su He said: "It doesn't count as an order, my mother said, ......"

Su He said what Tuoba Mingyan told her last night, and did not hide it from Huandong and Huanxi, Nie Qingwan did not let Huandong and Huanxi go out, and when Suhe finished speaking, Huandong was shocked that she didn't take the comb well, and the comb 'snapped' and fell to the ground, she immediately knelt down to ask for guilt, Nie Qingwan brushed her hand and asked her to pick up the comb and go down, fortunately, Huanxi had already put the silver basin on the washstand, otherwise, the silver basin would have to fall and the water would be spilled on the ground.

Huanxi stood there, his eyes staring straight at Suhe.

Su He didn't look at her, only looked at Nie Qingwan, and said with a smile: "This is what my mother said, now that I have passed it on to Huameiren, then I will leave first." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Tell Niangniang, I will not disappoint her." ”

Su He's eyes tightened slightly, and he said, "Very good, I will also tell the mother of the little master's answer as it is." ”

After Su He left, Nie Qingwan called Huandong in again and asked her to continue combing her hair.

Huanxi came back to his senses and took a towel and soaked it in the basin.

Huandong didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Huanxi didn't dare.

It wasn't until Nie Qingwan packed up and went to the dining hall to eat that Wang Yunyao knew about it, and Huandong and Huanxi didn't dare to speak.

One master and three servants sat in the dining hall, the door of the dining hall was closed, all the palace maids and eunuchs were locked out, Wang Yunyao was angry and didn't know what to say, this was obviously Ming Guifei's 'trick', why did the little master respond in one bite?

Wang Yunyao said with a cold face: "Without the help of the power of Yanxia Palace, without the help of the name of Concubine Ming, how can you drive that Chen Yu out of the Criminal Department with the daughter of a relict who is not favored and has no foundation and is still surviving in the cracks?" Even if you can, the Chen family can't let you go, Concubine Ming is thinking about beauty, if she succeeds, she will reap the benefits of the fisherman, if she doesn't succeed, she doesn't care, hang high, this harem woman, there is really no good thing! ”

Huandong also said: "Little master, why didn't you hesitate to agree?" ”

Huanxi said: "Chen Yu is in the Criminal Department, we can't touch it even if we have great ability, let alone kick him out, little master, this is not something we can do, you go and tell Niangniang, let someone else do it, right?" ”

Nie Qingwan took a spoon and quietly ate the lean porridge in front of her, and when she saw that the three maids were so worried about this matter, she comforted: "Don't worry, since I should go down, I know it." ”

She stirred it in the bowl with a spoon, raised her head and said to them, "You can eat too, you don't have to talk so much about the rules when the door is closed, and when we are done, we will go to the mother to say goodbye, and then go to the queen to say goodbye." ”

Wang Yunyao looked at her, she really couldn't understand, why wasn't she worried!

Of course Nie Qingwan wasn't worried, she had nothing to worry about.

The Chen family dared to support the army back then, but now they have to bear her anger.

Chen Yu is just the first step.

A small waiter in the criminal department, she doesn't even have the interest to do it, but when she comes back from rebirth, she always has to move her wrist to make some people remember some things they dare not recall, and then recall some people who dare not remember, and then let them understand that the debts owed must be repaid.

Nie Qingwan drank porridge and ate vegetables calmly, and didn't take Suhe's words to heart at all, but Wang Yunyao and Huandong Huanxi had to rest assured, but seeing that Nie Qingwan was so calm, they seemed to have been moved, and slowly calmed down and sat down to eat.

After eating, the group went to the main hall of the Yanxia Hall to greet Tuoba Mingyan.

After asking for peace, we went to greet the queen again.

Yin Xuan has come back from the morning court, is in Shoude Palace to accompany the queen to eat, the queen did have a little illness last night, but it is not a major illness, but she ate something bad, had a stomach, tossed for an afternoon, and in the evening the whole person was weak, after Yin Xuan went, seeing her like this, she couldn't bear to leave, so she stayed in Shoude Palace.

Early in the morning, Dou Fuze came once.

At that time, Yin Xuan had just gotten up and was about to go to the court, and Suihai was serving.

Dou Fuze took Chen Dedi's pulse, and said to the emperor that there was no big problem, and he would have breakfast later, see the situation, and if he still had stomach trouble, he would prescribe some medicine, if he didn't make trouble, it would be completely fine.

When Yin Xuan heard this, he also put his mind at ease, went to the court, and when he went to the court, he came to Shoude Palace to accompany the queen to dinner.

In this way, the concubines came to say goodbye.

Before Chen Dedi left to meet the concubines, Yin Xuan asked Dou Fuze to take her pulse again, and after Dou Fuze was diagnosed as fine, Yin Xuan went out with Chen Dedi.

The concubines didn't expect the emperor to be there today, and they were almost terrified and overjoyed.

The news of the harem has always spread quickly, and the queen was unwell last night, and the whole harem knew about it.

Li Yuchen asked with concern: "The queen's body is okay, right?" ”

Chen Dedi said with a smile: "Thank you Concubine Chen for your concern, there is nothing wrong with this palace." ”

Li Yuchen said: "It's okay." ”

Tuoba Mingyan sneered and hooked the corners of his lips, thinking, what kind of physical discomfort is simply an excuse, seeing that the emperor went to her palace again, she was not happy, so she used this small means to get the emperor into her palace, and the queen, I really don't know the general situation.

Although I think so in my heart, I can't say it in my mouth.

If Yin Xuan hadn't sat here today, Tuoba Mingyan might have been able to say some words about the Queen of Qi.

But Yin Xuan is sitting here, and Tuoba Mingyan can't help but give the emperor a son.

Tuoba Ming said: "It's a hot day, and the queen loves to eat cold fruits, so it's normal to have a stomach, but although you like it, you have to avoid some mouths, after all, the body is important." ”

She said, looking up at Chen Dedi.

Chen Dedi said with a smile, "Yesterday I was greedy, what Concubine Ming said is that although I like it, I have to be jealous, and I can't be too greedy." Then he looked at the concubines in the house and said, "There are still some cold fruits here in the palace, which will be distributed to you later, these are rare fruits that have been paid tribute from all parties, and they are unique in the world, but they can't be put aside for a long time. As he spoke, he asked Yin Xuan again, "The emperor also sent some there, right?" ”

Yin Xuan said: "No need, I don't like things that are too sweet, you can share them with them." ”

Chen Dedi said: "Yes. ”

The concubines immediately stood up and thanked them.

Nie Qingwan stood behind Tuoba Mingyan, and also thanked her with her blessings.

When he looked up, his gaze fell on Yin Xuan, neither lukewarm, neither hot nor dry, as calm as stagnant water, but such a weightless gaze still made Yin Xuan notice something abnormal, probably a natural intuition, and probably no matter what Nie Qingwan became, as long as her soul reappeared, it would definitely make Yin Xuan's heart feel different, he suddenly raised his head, and then crashed into a deep gaze.

Looking at each other, Yin Xuan narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Nie Qingwan smiled faintly and staggered her gaze.

The action, not panicked, calm and natural, with an indescribable disdain.

Disdain?

Yin Xuan raised his eyebrows, and was about to call her to him, but was interrupted by Sui Hai's words.

Sui Hai said: "Your Majesty, Li Donglou asks to see you." ”

Li Donglou didn't serve by Yin Xuan's side for the past few days, because Li Donglou was sent by Yin Xuan to find out how the medicinal herb appeared, and when Yin Xuan heard it, he got up and left.

The queen and the concubines hurriedly stood up and sent them off.

When he was about to step out of the threshold, Yin Xuan suddenly turned around and said to Nie Qingwan, "You, come here." ”
