Chapter 226: The Missing Female Corpse
"Your Majesty, it's a big deal, it's a big deal....... it's not good" The voice of the fifth princess trembled a little, Xue Yi and Emperor Cheng looked at each other, and the two of them were stunned.
The fifth father-in-law is an old man in the palace, who has served two generations of kings, what major events have he not experienced? On weekdays, he is also the most serious person, if even he is so flustered, this matter must be very important.
Emperor Cheng's thick black eyebrows gradually locked, and he got up to go out, when he suddenly found that the corners of his clothes were pulled by something, and he turned around and just met Xue Yi's earnest eyes, Xue Yi stared at Emperor Cheng and said: "Your Majesty, Xue Yi hopes that as long as the emperor needs it, Xue Yi will be next to the emperor." ”
Looking at each other, Emperor Cheng bowed his head and said, "Fifth Father-in-law, come in and talk back!" ”
The fifth father-in-law bowed down and trotted into the door in a hurry, and almost tripped over the threshold at the door, but fortunately, Liu Nong quickly stepped forward to help him.
The fifth father-in-law wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and smiled apologetically in the face of Liu Nong: "Thank you, girl, it's May's gaffe." ”
"You're so out of shape! What's wrong with you today? What happened to make you panic like this? Emperor Cheng glanced at the fifth duke dissatisfied.
The fifth father-in-law knelt down and replied, "Huh....... Your Majesty, just ......" The fifth duke suddenly stopped and glanced at Xue Yi from the corner of his eye.
Emperor Cheng understood what the fifth prince meant, and said coldly: "If there is anything you say, only I can know, and Concubine Xue can know." ”
"Yes."
"Fifth father-in-law, slow." Xue Yi interrupted the fifth duke, turned to Emperor Cheng and smiled: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, the harem cannot interfere in politics, looking at the appearance of the fifth duke, it should be something big happened in the previous dynasty, according to the concubines, the emperor is still good at driving the imperial study." ”
Emperor Cheng patted Xue Yi's hand: "Now that the harem is troublesome, I will give you to enter and leave the imperial study at will at any time today!" ”
"Your Majesty," Xue Yi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Emperor Cheng.
The fifth father-in-law kowtowed and said, "Niangniang is too careful, the old slave is just afraid that this matter will surprise Niangniang's phoenix." ”
"Don't be verbose, what's the matter?" Emperor Cheng waved his hand impatiently.
The fifth father-in-law hesitated for a moment before he said, "Yes....... Just now, the waiter came to report that Concubine Rou was gone. ”
"You....... What did you say?! You repeat! Emperor Cheng almost fell from his seat, and the tea cup in his hand was shattered.
Xue Yihua's face was pale, and she stared at the fifth princess and asked repeatedly: "Fifth princess, what is the disappearance of Concubine Rou?!" Concubine Rou ....... Didn't she go?! ”
"Your Majesty......" Xue suddenly grabbed Emperor Cheng's arm, and her body trembled.
Emperor Cheng's face was pale, his thin lips were pursed, and he stared at the fifth duke in distraction, and only said after a while: "I know, have you ever sent someone to investigate?" ”
The fifth father-in-law nodded: "The old slave has already arranged for someone to investigate this matter, and I don't know what the holy will is, so I have come to report to the emperor." ”
"Does the Queen Mother know about this?" Emperor Cheng seemed thoughtful.
The fifth father-in-law shook his head: "The incident happened suddenly, and the old slave didn't have time to go to Shouning Palace." ”
"Then you go now, maybe the Queen Mother knows the whereabouts of Concubine Rou!" Emperor Cheng stood up suddenly.
"Yes, the old slave will go." The fifth father-in-law bowed and withdrew.
Xue Yi's face was pale, and she didn't notice a faint trace of blood oozing from her bitten lips.
"Xue Yi, don't be afraid, this matter must be the Queen Mother's troublemaker again, I will go to the Queen Mother's Shouning Palace to ask for clarification now." Emperor Cheng seemed to be sure that this incident was done by the Queen Mother, so he didn't care about comforting Xue Yi, and left in a hurry.
"The concubine sends the emperor." Snow is still in debt.
Emperor Cheng's back disappeared, and there was a muttering sound in the Chenhui Garden.
"Have you heard? Concubine Rou is gone. ”
"Didn't Concubine Rou lose last night? What's all the fuss. ”
"Stupid, what I'm talking about is not dead, but the body is lost after death!"
"Oops, it's scared."
"Haven't you heard? Some people say that Concubine Rou is blind to death and was framed by others. ”
"Don't say it, it's scared to death."
The discussion made Xue Yi frown.
Liu Nong saw it in his eyes, walked out of the dormitory, and shouted to stop the palace maids who were talking in a low voice: "Are you all idle today?" Xiaoqing, are the mother's clothes ready? Xiaoying, have you received this month's moon silver? And you, Xiaoyue, Niangniang is asking you to go to King Yu's mansion and ask King Yu what is the matter with the parrot that doesn't like to talk? Can you see why? ”
Seeing that Liu Nong was angry, everyone lowered their eyebrows and stood with their heads lowered, and the palace maid called Xiaoyue whispered: "Back to Sister Liu's words, the slave maid has been there, but the people in King Yu's mansion said that King Yu traveled far away and was not in the palace, and the slave and maid had already left a message, and when the prince returned to the house, he would ask again." ”
"That means you don't have anything to do, do you?! Go and disassemble and wash all the bedding and clothes of our kilometer, and also, the phoenix tails on both sides of the mother's Qiangong jasper bed are old, and you are limited to re-play it within three days! ”
"Sister, how can you do it for three days?"
"Yes, in three days, we can't finish half of it!"
Liu Nong's voice lagged behind, and several palace maids objected in unison.
Liu Nong didn't say anything without smiling, but just turned left and right around them, staring at the pores of several little palace maids standing up. Liu Nong roared: "Don't you want to sleep anymore?!" Three days is not enough, and two days is not enough?! ”
Several little palace maids saw that Liu Nong was really angry, and ran out of the smoke.
Liu Nong walked back to the dormitory with a snort, Xue Yi smiled and covered her mouth and nose and looked at Liu Nong: "I don't know if Xiao Yu will be afraid of three points when she sees our Liu girl's mighty appearance?" ”
"Mother, when is this?! You still have the heart to make fun of the slaves. Liu Nong's face was full of redness, thinking of the things in Shouning Palace, and he couldn't help but worry about Xueyi.
Xue Yi didn't seem to pay attention to it at all, leaned back casually, picked up the biography and read the book.
Liu Nong stomped his feet and sighed: "It's really a mother who is not in a hurry, and I can't care about anything, so I just withdraw my hand." ”
Liu Nong didn't have the anger to slam the teacup on the table.
Xue Yi turned the pages of the book and said with a smile: "I really spoiled your little hoof, and now I dare to fight, seeing that Xiao Yu comes back, I don't ask the emperor to appoint a beautiful woman to him as a princess." ”
Liu Nong glanced at Xue Yi and said, "Hmph, the current matter has not been resolved, could it be that the Queen Mother really let us go lightly like this?!" Still daydreaming here? ”
Xue Yi put down the book, squinted at Liu Nong and asked playfully, "Are you worried that you will never see your sweetheart again or are you worried about my safety?" ”
Liu Nong saw that Xue Yi just didn't tell her the truth, so she had to give up and glared at Xue Yi: "The slave knows that you are the master and I am the slave, you don't have to discuss anything with the slave and the maid, but you have to let the slave know if you are really okay!" ”
Liu Nong was really worried about Xueyi, and said sincerely, and couldn't help but redden.
Xue Yi put away her grinning smile and whispered: "Liu Nong, it's not that I don't believe you, it's really that there are so many eyeliners of the Queen Mother and the Emperor in this Chenhui Garden, now, I can't tell you that I have something to do, I can only tell you that the Emperor and the Queen Mother will not come to us for trouble recently, because we will not be their biggest trouble, do you understand?" ”
Liu Nong nodded as if he didn't understand.
Xue Yi got out of bed, took Liu Nong in her arms and whispered: "Liu Nong, I understand your heart, my heart has not changed, you will always be my closest family." ”
"....... As long as the mother is safe, the slave is just too worried about the mother......" Liu Nong choked up, tears falling in pairs.
Xue Yi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "I know I know, I always know, okay, don't cry, I don't dare to bully you, the princess-to-be." ”
"!"
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to talk about it. Let's get down to business, I ask you, what's going on with that cold cream? How can I see that she never comes on an errand? Xue Yi changed her words, and seemed to ask normally, but in fact, her eyes did not leave Liu Nong's face for a moment.
When Liu Nong heard Xue Yi ask about the cold frost, her little face immediately sank, and she said, "The slave and maid wanted to ask the mother for this matter early in the morning." ”
"Oh? What's going on? Xue Yi deliberately raised her mouth and pretended to be curious.
"Alas, this matter is a long story, when I was in the palace, Leng Shuang begged the slave maid to serve the mother, at that time there were too many things in the palace, and there was no chance, and the slave and maid forgot, and later after Du Ruo's sister left, we really lacked a person who was able to do it around us, just this Leng Shuang came to beg me, I agreed to her, and got her into the palace, but who knew that she was sick for three days and two days, and she didn't have a serious day of errand!"
Xue Yi nodded: "When Leng Shuang was in the palace, did you want to be an errand by my side?" ”
"yes, is there something wrong with this cold cream? Or is she the Queen Mother's eyeliner? Liu Nong looked at Xue Yi.
Xue Yi smiled: "Nothing, I'm just asking casually." ”
Liu Nong suddenly slapped his head fiercely: "It must be like this, it must be like this!" Mother, do you suspect that I am in league with Cold Frost?! It's no wonder that these days, the slave thinks you are weird to the slave! ”
Xue Yi took Liu Nong's hand and hurriedly denied: "What are you talking about?!" How could I doubt you? Even if it's about cold cream, I also ask casually, I don't know if she's the queen mother's eyeliner, don't think about it. ”
Liu Nong doesn't know Xue Yi very well, but she has been by her side for nearly two years, and she knows that her master will not jump to conclusions if she is not very sure, and it is superfluous no matter how she explains, and it was very hasty to take Leng Shuang under her own hands at the beginning.
Xue Yi also knows Liu Nong very well, she knows that if she wants Liu Nong to feel at ease, the best way is to let her do things, and now she wants to be anti-customer-oriented, and it is when she needs people, so she decided to take a risk!
