Chapter 49: Assassination

The group of black-clothed people took their swords and ran straight towards the Queen Mother and Concubine Li, Concubine Li blocked in front of the Queen Mother, and asked Mama Chang to leave with the Queen Mother first.

But the man in black was ordered, no one could escape, just at this critical moment, a few secret guards arranged by An Shuangchi came out of the shadows, and the leader of the men in black saw that the situation was not right and signaled them to withdraw, but An Shuangchi's secret guards were not vegetarians, and they ended the lives of other men in black in a few clicks, leaving the leader of the men in black to hand him over to the emperor for disposal.

The emperor heard from the Lama Temple that the Queen Mother was almost assassinated in the Imperial Garden, so he hurriedly ran over.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, are you okay?" The emperor helped the frightened Queen Mother and asked.

The Queen Mother shook her head: "The mourning family is fine." ”

Seeing that the queen mother was fine, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, turned to the leader of the man in black and said angrily: "Dare to assassinate in the palace, I see that you don't want to live anymore, and say who instructed you to assassinate?" ”

The man in black glanced at Concubine Li, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it was Concubine Liniang who instructed the villain to assassinate the Empress Dowager here today." ”

Concubine Li was innocently wronged, and she didn't know how to react for a while.

The emperor and the queen mother looked at Concubine Li in surprise, and Concubine Li shook her head: "Nonsense, this palace doesn't know you at all, how can you frame this palace?" ”

"Concubine Li, the conscience of heaven and earth, do you really not know the villain?" The man in black was still talking.

Concubine Li saw that she was speechless, and she was about to cry in a hurry.

"Who commanded you, do you not know in your own heart?" Suddenly, Mo Qingrou walked over from behind: "The slave maid visits the emperor, the queen mother, and the concubine Li." ”

"Gentle, do you know who instructed him?"

"Of course the slave and maid know who it is, that day the slave and maid heard that someone was going to murder the Queen Mother and Concubine Li, and the slave didn't know whether what this person said was true or false, so she didn't report it to the Queen Mother and Concubine Li."

"I want to see who murdered Concubine Li and the Queen Mother, don't be gentle with you to report it truthfully."

"The slave didn't know who it was, but he saw someone give him a token."

The emperor understood and said to the leader of the Praetorian Guard: "Search your body." ”

"No."

Soon, the Praetorian Guards searched for a palace card from the man in black, "Your Majesty, please take a look." ”

The emperor picked up the palace card, and when he saw the word 'Ning' on it, he was furious, "Come on, put this bold assassin in prison, torture him severely, and be sure to tell me the truth." ”

"No."

"Mo Qing, how did you find these men in black?"

Without waiting for Mo to speak softly, An Shuangchi walked out from behind, "If you go back to the emperor, Mo Qingrou happened to meet Weichen that day, Weichen felt that this matter should be taken seriously regardless of whether it is true or not, and Weichen privately mobilized the soldiers, and hoped that the emperor would forgive him." ”

An Shuang didn't say the true identity of those secret guards, after all, the companion is like a tiger.

"Where did An Qing say, if it weren't for your vigilance, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother and Concubine Li would have been murdered today."

The emperor and Concubine Li sent the frightened Queen Mother back to Cixiang Palace, while Mo Qingrou and An Shuangchi glanced at each other, and only they understood the meaning in their eyes.

After the emperor sent the Queen Mother and Concubine Li back to the palace, he went to Baoning Palace to question the queen.

"The emperor has arrived." The queen was reading a book in Baoning Palace, and she was a little incredulous when she heard that the emperor was coming.

"Queen!" As soon as the emperor entered the palace gate, he called the queen loudly.

The queen didn't know why the emperor was so angry, so she smiled angrily: "Who made the emperor unhappy?" ”

Seeing that she had no remorse, the emperor slapped her in the face: "Slut." ”

The queen was confused, and looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, what mistake did the concubine make?" ”

"Do you still want me to say the good things you did yourself?" The emperor threw Mama Xi's palace card to the queen.

"Today, the Queen Mother and Concubine Li were assassinated in the Imperial Garden, and I searched for this palace card on the assassin, presumably the token of no one in this harem except you is yellow!"

When the queen saw this palace card, she secretly clenched her fists, turned around and looked at the emperor with teary eyes, "The emperor's concubines are wronged, someone must be trying to frame the concubines, the emperor is clear!" ”

The emperor snorted coldly: "Who else in this palace is jealous of Concubine Li's favor from the queen mother?" Who else can steal the waist card in your palace? ”

The emperor's aggressiveness made the queen speechless to refute, and at this time Mama Xi hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, this is the waist card of the slave, I accidentally lost it yesterday, I must have picked it up by someone with a heart to frame the queen." ”

The emperor looked at this pair of master and servant indifferently, and put down cruel words to the queen: "The queen mother and Concubine Li are fine, otherwise your ten heads will not be enough to cut off, I will tell you today that if something happens to Cixiang Palace and Chuxiu Palace in the future, I will be the first to settle accounts with you." ”

After speaking, the emperor flicked his sleeves and left, the queen heard the emperor's cruel words, and sat down on the ground in fright, he has been married to her for many years, how can he be willing, how can he be willing!

"Mama Xi went to the palace to find out who it was!"

"No."

Mama Xi didn't know when her palace card was dropped, and she didn't know why she found it on the man in black.

In fact, all this credit is due to An Shuangchi, who ordered the dark night to take the palace card and put it on the man in black unknowingly while he was fighting with the man in black.

"The general's trick is really wonderful!"

Mo Qingrou and An Shuangchi walked on the way to Chuxiu Palace, and Mo looked at An Shuangchi with admiration.

"Is that how it should be?" An Shuangchi naughty thumbs up.

Mo laughed softly, he didn't expect An Shuangchi to learn so quickly.

The two of them came to Chuxiu Palace, Concubine Li was still in fright for a long time and couldn't come back to her senses, seeing them coming, after letting everyone in the palace go down, she asked: "Gentle, frosty, what's going on?" ”

"Back to Niangniang's words, the slave maid passed by a rockery in the garden yesterday and heard that the queen's mother next to Mama Xi discussed with the man in black today to harm you, so the slave maid wanted to report to you but met General An, and the general discussed with me to protect you secretly."

Don't tell things and things lightly and respectfully.

An Shuangchi also agreed: "Because we don't know when the queen will make a move, we didn't tell my sister in advance, and I hope my sister won't blame." ”

Concubine Li tightened her veil: "Is it really the queen who wants to frame me?" ”

Mo nodded softly, Concubine Li had a plan in her heart, "It seems that this palace can't be so careless anymore." ”

After coming out of Chuxiu Palace, An Shuangchi wanted to show his mind to Mo Qingrou, but he was interrupted by Qiao Hui, who hurriedly came to find her and said that Rong Fangxuan's fat powder had made a mistake and told her to hurry back!

Mo said goodbye to An Shuangchi in a hurry and left with Qiaohui, An Shuangchi looked at her back in a hurry and shook her head, it seems that she can only talk to her in the future.

In the Baoning Palace on the other side, Mama Xi told the queen what she had found out.

When the queen heard that it was the ghost Mo Qingrou again, she smashed the cup next to her in anger.

"It's Mo Qingrou again, this slut, since she is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, Mama Xi, come here."

The queen said a few words in Mama Xi's ear, and Mama Xi felt that it was inappropriate: "Niangniang, we might as well wait a few more days, now that the assassination of the Imperial Garden has not subsided, the emperor will definitely notice it, it is better to wait for a few days after the wind and waves are calm, and it is not too late for us to do it!" ”

The queen sat on the soft couch angrily and nodded: "Let her live for two more days for the time being!" ”

Mo Qingrou and Qiaohui hurried back to Rong Fangxuan, along the way, Qiaohui and Mo Qingrou told the general situation, it turned out that Jade made a bottle of fat powder, and felt pain after applying it to her face, and it didn't take long for red spots to appear on her face.

Mo Qingrou went back to take a look, as she said, Jadeite's face was covered with red spots, she took the fat powder made of jadeite, sniffed it carefully, and found nothing abnormal.

"Jade, what did you put in this fat powder?"

"I, I made it the way I normally would!" Emerald's face began to flush and swell.

Mo frowned gently, no, there must be something that shouldn't be added to it, otherwise this situation would not have happened.

"Show me what's left of the material."

Lan Xin next to him handed a plate of residue to Mo Qingrou, Mo Qingrou took the tweezers and rummaged through it, and sure enough, he found something unusual in the residue.

"Jade, have you ever touched alum?"

Jade nodded with tears in pain, "Recently, I have some phlegm, so I used alum." ”

"That's right, these things can't be mixed in fat powder."

Qiao Hui hurriedly said on the side: "Gentle, can that jade's face still be saved?" ”

Mo nodded softly and snapped his fingers, "Wrap it around me." ”

Mo gently asked Qiaohui to bring a basin of water, and asked Jade to clean her face with facial whey, and then Mo gently applied an aloe vera mask to her, and after the mask was removed, she applied some aloe vera cream.

"You go back to rest with the cream, and then use the facial whey to lower your face at night and apply the mask."

"Slave, thank you, Steward." Jade returned to her room accompanied by Qiaohui.

Mo Qingrou suddenly thought that she was going to talk to An Shuangchi about the semicolon of Fat Fan Zhai, and it seemed that she had to have time to talk to him again in the future.

At night, An Shuangchi and Mo Qingrou had their own concerns and couldn't sleep for a long time.

The next day, Jade's face really improved, and everyone had to admire Mo Qinglai.

"Do you have to remember to wash your hands whether you are making fat powder or mouth grease? Yesterday, it was good that Jade experienced it personally, otherwise such a bottle of fat powder would be taken to the palace ladies and little masters, and they would lose their heads, we must cheer up the spirit, understand? ”

"Thank you, Steward."

"Alright, let's get to work!" Mo Qingrou turned around and took Qiaohui to the imperial dining room, Qiaohui didn't know what Mo Qingrou was doing here, and she didn't understand why she asked the head of the imperial dining room for a bunch of carrots.

If she said that she wouldn't believe it if she took it to eat, so much was enough for them Rong Fangxuan to eat up and down for a while, so what did she use it for?
