Chapter 24: Suspicion
Fusheng paused his hand to change his clothes: "Why did the master say this?" But did she do anything strange, the queen? β
The things she did were more than strange.
It's just that Xiao Chenyu didn't bother to say much, and at this time he felt suffocated in his chest, and he was injured internally when he was about to make a move.
The person who can enter the eyes of the Queen Mother and secretly guard in Cining Palace is really not an idle person.
Although he was temporarily advantaged, he did not take advantage of it.
Fusheng was about to ask again, when he suddenly heard Xiao Chenyu's cough.
The voice was muffled, and he was a little panicked at the moment: "Is the master injured?" The minions are going to pass you ......"
"If you have an internal injury, can you call the Imperial Doctor to see it?" Xiao Chenyu glanced sideways, "It's okay, I'll raise it for a while." But there is another thing, you remember clearly, you have to check it carefully. β
Fusheng was still worried about his body, but after thinking about it, today, he was raised in the deep palace every day, how could he suddenly suffer internal injuries in the middle of the night, this matter cannot be passed on to the imperial doctor, otherwise once the news leaks, the queen mother will guess that it is the master who saves people outside the Cining Palace, and as for the woman who visited the Cining Palace at night, except for the queen, there will probably be no one else.
In this way, there is nothing to hide.
Fortunately, there was a healing medicine in the Dongnuan Pavilion, so Fusheng dispelled the idea of passing on the imperial doctor, and then changed Xiao Chenyu's clothes, and asked again: "What does the master want to do?" The slave will bring the internal healing medicine that he got last time, and you will take one pill first. β
Xiao Chenyu hummed and said yes, and then told him about Su Lingyue: "I have seen the queen these times, and I feel that she is very different from before, plus last time she punished Concubine Dong and Concubine Shu, and dealt with the matter of Sanfu, all of them added together, which made me feel that something was wrong." Fusheng, you sent someone out of the palace, and then carefully inquired about the queen's life experience, she went home to save her relatives, and somehow changed as if she was a person, here, I am afraid that there is something boring, and the Su family should be the location of the secret. β
Fusheng twisted his eyebrows: "The master is saying that the queen seems to have changed into a different person?" β
Xiao Chenyu nodded and said: "So I asked you to check, don't alarm anyone, find out the back and forth, maybe it's me who has a lot of heart, but maybe, all the things about the former queen were made for me to see, she is not a weak and inactive person at all in her bones, as for why she hides her temperament and actions, that's a story later." β
Zhilan was worried for a night, and then waited for Su Lingyue, who was in a mess, to come back.
At that time, Su Lingyue's hair bun was also a little scattered, the green silk in her ears was hanging down, and she was sweating all over her head, and when the cold wind blew at night, the sweat fell, but the obviously soaked green silk was attached to her cheeks, and the whole person looked embarrassed.
As soon as Zhilan saw her look like this, her heart rose to her throat: "Niangniang, what's wrong?" Is there some kind of trouble you are in? Looks so embarrassing......"
"It's a little bit of trouble." Su Lingyue also tossed for a night, it was dangerous and exciting, she was almost found out of her true identity, and then she met such an unobtrusive man, and now she went back to the palace, and when she saw Zhilan, she breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person felt exhausted.
She lifted her legs and moved in the direction of the meditation chair, and the whole person almost collapsed in the chair.
Seeing this, Zhilan thought she was injured, so she hurriedly stepped forward: "Is Niangniang injured?" The slave maid will help you fetch water and bathe, and change your clothes to check for you......"
"You go fetch water, I'll wash my face, let's take a shower tomorrow, it's the middle of the night, don't alarm people anymore, didn't I say I had fallen asleep before?" Su Lingyue was really too lazy to move, so she only rolled her eyelids and instructed Zhilan.
Zhilan thought to herself, it must be alarming to take a bath when the movement is too big at this time, so she nodded and went to get hot water to ask Su Lingyue to wipe her face.
When Su Lingyue cleaned up, the night clothes on her body had already been changed, she was wrapped in plain clothes, and she put on a red gauze on her head, and called Zhilan: "Cining Palace is not what I expected, there is indeed a problem." β
Zhilan sighed, put the copper basin back in its place, and looked back at her: "Did Niangniang find something?" β
But Su Lingyue shook her head and said no: "I didn't find any clues, so I wanted to go outside the dormitory to investigate, but as soon as I approached the queen mother's dormitory, a man with strong martial arts came out." And the man found me, but he didn't say anything, it seemed that he didn't want to alarm the guards patrolling the palace. If I'm not mistaken, that man is also hiding in the shadows, quietly guarding the Queen Mother and Cining Palace, so you see, if there is no ghost in his heart, how can he put a person with strong martial arts to protect him in secret? β
Where did Zhilan still listen to this, she only knew that she had alarmed people, and she was still a man with strong martial arts.
Only then did Zhilan understand why her master was so embarrassed when she came back, and the whole person looked tired, it turned out to be like this.
So Zhilan was even more worried, lest she expose her whereabouts, and even more afraid that she would suffer a secret loss at the hands of others and be injured, but she was afraid that she would be worried and unwilling to speak out.
She stepped forward a few steps, squatted down, and squatted beside Su Lingyue: "If Niangniang is injured, you must tell the slave maid, the slave maid knows that Niangniang has superb medical skills, but you always have to let the slave and maid know, don't hide it from the slave maid, and the master of Cining Palace, did he see Niangniang's face?" Have you seen through the identity of the mother? If he sees it, Niangniang will have to think about how to deal with the Queen Mother tomorrow! β
Su Lingyue saw that she was panicked like this, but she was actually worried about herself, so she put her palm on the top of her head and rubbed it twice: "Look at what scares you, people are strong in martial arts, if I am injured, can I still sit here and tell you this so unharmed?" Rest assured, I wasn't hurt, and he didn't see my face, let alone identify me. β
When her voice fell, she saw the corners of Zhilan's mouth twitching, obviously having something to ask.
Su Lingyue didn't have to listen to her, and she knew what she wanted to ask, so she opened her mouth in front of her and stopped her from talking behind: "I went out of Cining Palace and met a man, he saved me, but I don't know who he is, he covers his face and is also wearing night clothes, but his martial arts seem to be above the person in Cining Palace, I can't see the specifics, I only know that he beat that person and vomited blood with one palm." But don't worry, this man hasn't lifted my veil and doesn't know who I am, so in generalβ"
She sat up slightly, solemnly and solemnly, dragged out the tail note, lowered her head and stared at Zhilan intently, and slowly withdrew her hand: "There is nothing to do tonight, although it sounds dangerous, but nothing happens, speaking of which, I still have something to gain, at least there are ghosts in Cining Palace, this is certain, as for what secrets are hidden in Cining Palace, that is something that will be investigated slowly later." β
Zhilan was in a cold sweat when she heard this.
It's all like this, and you still want to investigate Cining Palace?
The master in front of you is really ...... She didn't know what to persuade for a while, let alone what to say, but she felt that the master's courage was inevitably too big, knowing that Cining Palace was guarded by a master, and she had to investigate Cining Palace, so she was not afraid of hitting someone else's hands one day.
Su Lingyue obviously saw the worries and worries in her heart, and sighed: "Then you see, I also visited Cining Palace tonight, and I also alarmed the people of Cining Palace, and I took risks, is it just to get this clue?" Let's be careful, if we really encounter trouble, can't we just stop it in time? I'm still the queen of the middle palace, with this identity as a cover, the queen mother may not think that I dare to visit Cining Palace at night, and even if something really happens in the future, there is the letter left by my sister, Sidu and Chunrong are indeed slaves who have served in Cining Palace, I want to check Cining Palace, it is also reasonable, there is nothing unreasonable, even if the queen mother is suspicious, she can't do anything with me, at most she is embarrassed by me, but if she wants to say that it is more powerful, she must also be afraid of the clan relatives and courtiers. β
Li'er is such a reason, but it's not like this after all.
What the Queen Mother has done over the years, in fact, Zhilan knows more or less, when the first queen is there, although she is silent on weekdays, but she is like a mirror in her heart, how the queen mother handles the emperor and how she treats the emperor, Zhilan knows how much.
A ruthless person, and an unreasonable person, it is clear that it belongs to the emperor, but the queen mother even refuses to serve the last wish of the first emperor, and blindly wants to hold her own son to the throne, in the end, the abolition of the king and the death of the rebel, she blames the emperor for all this, which is too unreasonable.
Such a person, her master now says that even if something happens, the Queen Mother can't do anything to her......
How is this possible?
But Zhilan understood that her master had made up her mind and would not change it again, so she had to sigh: "Since Niangniang has decided, the slaves and maids will listen to you, and the time is not too early, the slaves and maids will wait for you to settle down." β
said that it would be placed as soon as possible, but Su Lingyue was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, and couldn't sleep.
She kept thinking, why did the man who suddenly appeared outside Cining Palace tonight go, and who was it?
When the man rescued her and took her all the way to the remote palace, he said something strange, saying that she was bold and dared to approach the queen mother's dormitory, that is to say, her every move tonight had actually fallen into the eyes of the man, but he didn't stop her, and he didn't even remind her that there was a master in Cining Palace, until she was almost caught, he still didn't show up.
And the man saw very clearly that when she was at the gate of Cining Palace, she had injured the people in Cining Palace in some way, and once again bought herself time and opportunity to escape, and in the end, she still couldn't get out, so the man stepped forward and rescued her.
Every time she thought of this, Su Lingyue couldn't help but feel creepy.
