Seeing that Zhong Ling was suspicious of Concubine Min, the little girl who was still trembling suddenly snatched the sesame cake from Zhong Ling's hand, and stuffed it into her mouth without saying a word.

Zhong Ling naturally knew that there was no poison in this pastry, after all, Concubine Min was not stupid, and she personally sent the poisonous pastry to the East Palace, she was afraid that she would live too long.

But this time it's fresh, I didn't expect this little palace maid to look timid, but she is still a loyal protector, but it's a pity that she is not ladylike, she is really a good boy who is blind in vain.

Seeing that the little girl was almost swallowing, Zhong Ling walked over to her: "What's your name?" ”

Before the little girl could speak, she was worried that Zhong Ling would blame her, so Concubine Min simply jumped like thunder first: "Bold pothos, dare to make such a mistake in front of the queen mother!" ”

Zhong Ling was speechless: I was asking her and didn't ask you, and I learned to answer, really.

"Pothos, okay, this palace remembers you." Zhong Ling has always admired faithful people.

But the green pothos seemed to have misunderstood Zhong Ling's meaning, and knelt down again without saying a word: "Fang is a slave and maid who is reckless, and asks the queen to forgive her sins." ”

This is one of the reasons why Zhong Ling doesn't like the palace, the people here really can't talk well, they either kneel or beg for mercy at every turn, she is not a murderous maniac, where do you get so much thought of wanting to cut off people's heads?

"You'd better pray that the queen mother is magnanimous and uninhibited, otherwise you will suffer when you go back." Concubine Min's face was full of viciousness, looking at her arrogant and domineering appearance, she thought that Luluo was not less bullied on weekdays, and Zhong Ling really felt that it was not worth it for her.

"Okay, okay, this palace doesn't blame you, it was originally this palace that asked you to eat, and you just acted on orders, get up." Zhong Ling didn't go to help again, for fear of frightening the pothos again.

Only then did Lu Luo stand up with tears in her eyes, and Zhong Ling, who saw it, was so distressed: Such a good girl, she really cheapened this woman for nothing.

Seeing that Zhong Ling was not angry, Concubine Min breathed a sigh of relief, and then flattered her: "The queen mother is really open-minded, and the concubines admire her." ”

This woman said some hypocritical and sensual words from the moment she entered the door, compared to the previous appearance of the scolding shrew, it was like two people, and Zhong Ling was so uncomfortable.

"My sister praised it falsely, I don't know what is the important thing for my sister to come to the East Palace today?" Zhong Ling, the person in front of him, really didn't want to look at it more, so he simply went straight to the topic and made a quick decision.

Concubine Min then said in a hesitant manner: "Don't hide it from my sister, a few days ago, my father offended Your Majesty by a momentary gaffe, and now I am living like a year at home, and the concubine knows that Your Majesty has always responded to Niangniang's requests, I don't know if I can ask Niangniang to say a few words for my father in front of Your Majesty?"

Zhong Ling understands now, daring to love this woman is not reliable for the Empress Dowager and came to the enemy camp, so it seems that Zhong Ling really has some sympathy for the Empress Dowager.

A few days ago, Zhong Ling had also heard of Shen Yichi's disrespectful remarks, she didn't know Cao County's wolf ambitions, and now Shen Yichi finally set up a bureau to take him into an army, how could she spoil his hard work?

Zhong Ling then smiled slightly: "My sister is eager to save my father, this palace naturally understands, but the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, presumably my sister will not know it, the relationship between His Majesty and Lord Cao is a matter of monarchs and ministers, and it is really inconvenient for this palace to interfere." ”

Zhong Ling didn't give Concubine Min the slightest hope, and rejected her without thinking about it.

At this moment, Zhong Ling could see the trace of displeasure flashing in Concubine Min's eyes, but she didn't intend to please her, so what if she rolled her eyes to the sky? After all, this busy Zhong Ling said that he would not help anything.

Concubine Min had expected this to be the result, but it was not appropriate to tear her face on the spot, after all, if she hadn't offended Zhong Ling on the spur of the moment, today's matter would not be completely negotiable.

After being silent for a while, Concubine Min forced a smile and said: "The concubine has heard that the queen is magnanimous and righteous, so she rashly came to intercede with the mother, since the mother is so embarrassed, the concubine will not say more, the matter of the father is urgent, and today the concubine will retire first." ”

After that, before Zhong Ling could say anything, Concubine Min had already turned around and walked away.

"What an impatient one." Zhong Ling shook his head helplessly and sighed, turned around and returned to the inner hall.

After being choked in the East Palace, Concubine Min was furious as soon as she came out, and then she threw her anger towards the ready-made punching bag of pothos:

"You dead girl, how did this palace teach you on weekdays? What do you mean by that? Do you think that Hongu would be stupid enough to poison it? ”

Concubine Min said as she reached out and grabbed the pothos's ears fiercely, her face hideous.

The pothos was only sixteen or seventeen years old, her skin was still delicate, and she was about to pinch blood, but she didn't dare to complain even half a sentence.

Who calls them masters? couldn't help herself, and the pothos could only kneel down and beg for mercy again and again: "The slave knows that she is wrong, it is the slave and the maid who have affected the mother, the slave and the maid should die, and please let the mother calm her anger." ”

The pothos cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, this pitiful appearance really didn't let Zhong Ling see it, otherwise with her personality of pity and cherishing jade, she might not know how to teach Concubine Min a lesson. 360 Literature Network

Seeing that half of her feet had not yet stepped out of the East Palace, the green pothos cried like this in front of her, if she was looked at by outsiders, it would be really bad for her reputation.

Concubine Min was also panicked suddenly, although she taught her a lesson, Zhong Ling had no right to do anything to her, but now she had a request for Zhong Ling, and she should always pretend to be kind and friendly in front of her.

"Okay, okay, get up quickly, don't embarrass the palace outside, and don't spread today's events, if you are heard by the palace outside, beware of the palace picking your skin, do you hear?"

Concubine Min looked fierce and vicious, presumably because she was worried that her attachment to Zhong Ling would be known to the Empress Dowager.

The pothos was so frightened that she trembled, and hurriedly responded: "The slave maid obeys the instructions of the mother." Then the master and servant went back.

Lu Chaoge originally confined Concubine Min to the Qinghui Palace, which was the cold palace, but now that no one else is there, this harem naturally has no cold palace that belongs to him, so Concubine Min can come and go freely.

But at the moment, there is still no progress in the matter of Cao County, and looking at Zhong Ling's appearance, she doesn't want to help herself at all, so Concubine Min has to find another way: Zhong Ling, this palace has given you face, you don't want it, then don't blame this palace for being ruthless.

There was a faint crimson in the woman's deep eyes, and it seemed that she was planning to burn the jade.

At this time, Shen Yichi was still in the dark, he thought that temporarily disposing of Cao Xiangong would at least curb Concubine Min's arrogant personality and make her somewhat restrained, but he never thought that this would stimulate her resentment towards Zhong Ling.

Xu is busy and confused, Shen Yichi is full of thoughts on the post-sealing ceremony, where can he still take care of the father and daughter of the Cao family?

Seeing that it is only three days before the post-sealing ceremony, when Shen Yichi, the emperor, ascends the throne together with the empress, he will be the emperor who has pardoned the clouds and announced to the world and is justified, but in this way, he can't hide his fake death.

At night, Shen Yichi took care of the trivial things and came to the East Palace, Zhong Ling had a lot of tossing during the day, and Shen Yichi heard that Concubine Min had come to look for her, so he immediately panicked.

"Ling'er, Ling'er." Shen Yichi hurriedly came in, and he was relieved to see Zhong Ling sitting safe and sound in front of the rhombic mirror and disassembling the headdress.

Seeing Shen Yichi's appearance, Zhong Ling couldn't help but be surprised, and then got up and walked over to him: "Ah Chi, what's wrong with you, why are you flustered." ”

Shen Yichi smiled slightly and shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay if you're fine." ”

Zhong Ling didn't understand what Shen Yichi meant, and suddenly couldn't help laughing: "No, what can I do, what's wrong with you today, it's weird." ”

"I heard that Concubine Min came to you today? Why is it difficult to do so?" Shen Yichi asked with a worried face, asking so many questions at once, Zhong Ling, who asked, nodded or shook his head.

"Oh, don't worry, she came to me, that is, for the sake of Cao Xiangong, but I have already rejected her, she has asked me, naturally I don't dare to embarrass me, you can rest assured."

first gave Shen Yichi a reassuring pill, and then Zhong Ling asked again: "But you plan to leave Cao Xiangong alone like this?" Aren't you afraid that he will jump off the wall in a hurry?"

You know, no matter how well-behaved your pet is, it will inevitably go crazy, not to mention that Cao Xiangong is a wild and untamable wolf, if he is forced to be anxious, what will happen to Zhong Ling is really unimaginable.

But Shen Yichi seemed to have his own considerations, and saw him frown: "To tell you the truth, I always feel like I'm being watched recently." ”

Hearing this, Zhong Ling was startled at first, and after thinking about it carefully, she herself seemed to be the same, she always felt that her every move had been recorded by others recently, she was not sure before, but now that she heard Shen Yichi say so, it was a real hammer.

"You mean, this matter is also related to Cao County Gong?" Listening to Shen Yichi's words, this is probably what it meant.

But he shook his head: "I thought that the Cao family was monitoring the harem for the fetus in Concubine Baomin's womb, but recently, even the affairs of the previous dynasty seem to be clearly grasped by that person." ”

"The Cao family's power is so huge?" Zhong Ling's eyes widened involuntarily.

"That's not what I'm worried about." Shen Yichi's face was dark.

"That's ......"

"Yesterday, Lou Chen caught a deadpool outside the Qianqing Palace, and his body was engraved with the unique totem of Xia Ling Royal, I am worried that it was Shen Tianyu's doing."

Yesterday, the Deadpool was caught by Lou Chen and bit his tongue and committed suicide, refusing to reveal the slightest bit of information about the mastermind behind the scenes, if it weren't for Shen Yichi's sharp eyes and discovering the familiar mark on his shoulder, I'm afraid he wouldn't know Shen Tianyu's conspiracy until now.

"According to this, the Cao family not only united with the Empress Dowager, but also had something to do with Xia Ling?" The more Zhong Ling thought about it, the more he felt uneasy.
