The Queen Mother was annoyed, and her eyes were full of disdain: "If you really think about him, if you really have a heart like water as you say, and you have no intention of power, then why didn't you take him out of the palace and ask him to be a comfortable person?" ”

Just by virtue of Huai'en's status in the palace at the beginning, it was effortless to send the child out quietly.

"You were the one who pushed him out in the first place, and it was you who were greedy and pushed him into this position! At that time, you didn't ask him if you were willing, and now you have pushed him to the point of no return, and you don't care what he intended at all - you keep saying that it is for his good, but you just want to use him to make him rich, and you only want to win, but you don't dare to lose! ”

"Now that I see that the situation is out of control, I began to think of a way out for myself, although you still have one or two sincerity towards him, but the remaining eight or nine out of ten are all selfish!"

"No...... Concubines are not......"

Concubine Yun's eyes changed, and she shook her head with tears streaming down her face.

"The concubine was really soft-eared at the beginning, and she didn't stand the persuasion of the people around her, so she revealed her identity to the world...... But the concubine has long regretted it, and the concubine knows that she has made many mistakes, but she has never had the heart to gamble on anything...... The concubine is now copying scriptures day and night to pray for Ji'an, and the concubine-"

This time, before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the Queen Mother.

"Didn't stand the persuasion of the people around you? Why don't you say that you can't beat your own greed-" The Queen Mother was almost laughed at.

She looked at the thick hand-copied scriptures on the table behind Concubine Yun, and sneered, "Pray for Ji'an? Don't kid yourself! According to the mourners, you are afraid that you have done something wrong, and you are self-righteously redeeming for yourself, so that your conscience will be better! ”

“……”

Concubine Yun hung her head and was already crying uncontrollably, and she could only shake her head tremblingly at this time.

The Queen Mother looked at her quietly for a moment, and when she spoke again, her tone gradually calmed down.

"You have been safe and smooth in the Xianfu Palace all these years, even if you were assassinated in the Kaiyuan Temple, you can also get out of the whole body, do you really think it is by your so-called natural prudence, or are you lucky? If you hadn't been in peace, how would you have been destined to push him into the abyss—"

The Queen Mother looked straight at him and asked, "If you really have such selfless intentions as you say, why didn't you stand up and explain the true events of that day when Ji'er had an accident?" ”

Concubine Yun's trembling figure stiffened slightly.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the Queen Mother say: "On that day, it was clear that 'dim sum must be eaten while it was hot', and politely rejected Ji'er's proposal to bring dim sum back to Changchun Palace, but when Ji'er left, you pretended to be a good person again, and personally carried the food box to him——"

Concubine Yun's face turned red and white for a while.

"Concubine...... The concubine saw that it was not easy for the six princes to get closer to Ji'an, so they thought about passing through the six princes...... I may be able to take this opportunity to show goodwill to Changchun Palace on behalf of Ji'an, and the concubines and the six princes said a lot about Ji'an's good ...... The concubine just wanted to tell the Changchun Palace that the concubine's mother and son had no intention of holding a grudge......"

"The mourning family doesn't want to hear your stupid thoughts - the mourning family is asking you, why didn't you tell the truth about this?!"

"The concubine and Ji'an are one...... Even if you say it, it definitely can't prove anything......" Concubine Yun cried slightly, and added: "Besides, even if the concubine doesn't say it, she will definitely say it...... The concubine had no intention of concealing it. ”

"Really?" The Queen Mother looked at her condescendingly, and said with disappointment in her eyes: "But the prince never mentioned it, and the mourning family found out about it themselves." ”

Without thinking about it, it is impossible for the prince to be untouched by this.

Concubine Yun's expression was slightly sluggish.

"Whether others believe it or not is someone else's business. But as a mother, you can't help but say—"

The Queen Mother looked at her and said almost word by word: "Shen, you are not worthy of being a mother at all, let alone such a good child." ”

At this time, she was not so much disappointed as she felt worthless for the prince.

The woman in front of her, no matter how much she said and was full of excuses, she deceived herself, but she couldn't hide the selfishness in her bones.

"If you listen to the words of the mourning family, you should immediately go to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and in front of all the ministers, you should truly admit your mistake to the emperor."

Concubine Yun raised her head slowly.

She opened her mouth, and it took a while for her to speak: "I'm afraid that the concubine will say it, and no one will ......believe it."

The Queen Mother sneered: "Whether it's useful or not, this is what you should do - the mourning family doesn't expect you to help the prince anything, and they will never use your duties as a mother to blackmail you." It's just that since you still have a breath of air, then what you took from him should be as much as you can return! ”

Don't think of using those 'useless' excuses to cover up your selfishness and cowardice!

Concubine Yun didn't know whether she was ashamed or afraid, her eyes trembled, and she knocked her head down.

"Empress Dowager Xie's teachings, the concubines understand ......"

The Queen Mother took one last look at her.

"You don't need to understand." The Queen Mother turned around slowly: "People like you, for a while, can't really understand." ”

“……”

Concubine Yun knocked her head lower, her forehead touched the ground, and tears raged.

"The concubine sent the queen mother ......"

"Niangniang, the Queen Mother has already gone away, the slave maid will help you up......" A little palace maid bent over to help Concubine Yun and whispered.

The suffering and fear of the past few days are almost exhausting Concubine Yun's strength.

The palace maid helped the person into the couch with a little difficulty.

Concubine Yun leaned on the couch, hiding her face and crying, and the words of the Queen Mother kept echoing in her ears.

Those words, word by word, were like the tip of a needle, constantly piercing her heart, and she wanted to think deeply, but she did not have the courage to face them at all.

The palace maid handed over a half-dried warm towel and said softly: "Niangniang, wipe your face...... Be careful not to cry and break your body. ”

Concubine Yun put her hand down and subconsciously raised her head to look at her.

After a short period of confusion, Concubine Yun reacted.

This palace maid was originally in the outer hall, but after Tourmaline left, she began to replace Tourmaline to serve her closely.

Thinking of Tourmaline's death again, Concubine Yun couldn't help but fall into a trance.

There are some things that she still can't figure out.

After a while, the palace maid brought another cup of hot tea.

"Niangniang, you can have a cup of tea."

Concubine Yun subconsciously took it and held it in her hand, her eyes glazed.

The palace maid stood quietly beside her for a moment, and then said, "Niangniang, this tea is going to be cold, do you want the slave maid to change it for you?" ”

Concubine Yun came back to her senses, sensed the warmth under her fingertips, shook her head, and slowly brought the teacup to her lips.

Seeing this, the palace maid lowered her head again, looking well-behaved.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came in.

"Mother, slow down, this tea can't be eaten!"
