As soon as the Queen Mother left, all the beauties dispersed and returned to the palace. Su Jinyu was set up and escorted to the Palace of Mercy and Grace, and when she passed by Ru Concubine's side, she raised her eyes and glanced at her, which was planted in her hands tonight.

Ru Concubine noticed Su Jinyu's eyes, deliberately stopped in front of her, and ordered several eunuchs to retreat to the side first.

"It's really as Bengong expected, you really appeared here, don't blame Bengong for being ruthless, if you want to blame it, you can only blame your bad life. Tomorrow, too, it's time for Hongu to see you crying. Ru Concubine stretched out her hand and gently groped Su Jinyu's cheeks a few times, and the sharp nails left red marks on her fair face.

Su Jinyu didn't dare to say anything, just looked at Ru Concubine, she never thought that the previous few grudges would make Ru Concubine resentful. This time, I am afraid that it was arranged early in the morning, she knew Ling Yun's temperament, and specially led the Queen Mother and other people to come here to arrest her.

No matter what it was for, appearing outside the city tower at this time was already hers. Even if there is a mouth to explain, how can Ru Concubine be a person who stops easily.

To Su Jinyu's relief, she did not alarm Ling Yun upstairs. If he really went down, then Su Jinyu really jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't clear the charge of seducing the emperor.

Ru Concubine didn't dare to lynch to relieve her grievances, looking at the face that was scratched, she laughed a few times, leaned over and whispered in Su Jinyu's ear, "This palace wants to see, in the emperor's heart, which is more important." ”

"Isn't Niangniang afraid of setting herself on fire?" Su Jinyu said bitterly, she looked sideways at Ru Concubine, and she really couldn't guess what benefits she could get by doing this.

Ru Concubine covered her mouth and chuckled a few times, as if Su Jinyu's words were a big joke. patted Su Jinyu on the shoulder, like a concubine leaving, what is she afraid of, remove this thorn in her heart, it is too late to be happy, how can she think about those things after her death.

When the eunuchs saw Ru Concubine leaving, they walked over again and escorted Su Jinyu and left the city tower.

The cold wind blew, sweeping away the few dead leaves hanging on the branches, and drifted away with the cold wind to the distance that could not be reached. When the dust settled, the peace was restored, as if nothing had happened, faintly, and a few cat meows could be heard.

Ling Yun slowly paced down the stone steps with Sydney in his arms, looking at the fire in the distance, and his heart stirred up a thousand waves. He should think carefully about how to safely rescue Su Jinyu from the Queen Mother, and looked sideways in the direction where Ru Concubine left, he was extremely disgusted with her, but he was afraid that this harem would no longer tolerate people like her.

In the early morning of the next day, after the concubine had washed up early, she came to the Ci'en Palace to say goodbye. When she came, the Queen Mother had not yet gotten up, so she was delayed outside the palace gate for half an hour.

The east shows the white of the fish's belly, and today is the first day of the new year. There are a lot of things in the palace that need to be taken care of, and this New Year is also exempt from the early court.

When the palace gate of the Palace of Mercy and Grace opened, there were already a lot of concubines waiting outside the palace gate, chatting from time to time, and more of them were afraid to see the joke that Ru Concubine said last night.

Because they were not allowed to play right and wrong in the harem, they naturally buried this matter in their hearts, curious to see how Ru Concubine would continue to follow.

Li Muyun was late, and her big red robe showed her unique status among everyone. Walking in front of Ru Concubine, she deliberately paused and said softly, "Stop in moderation, otherwise this palace will not be able to protect you." As she spoke, she looked at her like a concubine meaningfully.

led all the concubines into the Ci'en Palace together, and the Queen Mother and the Concubine were already sitting on the top waiting for everyone's greetings.

"The concubines see the Queen Mother and the Concubine Mother, I wish you two blessings and heaven."

"Excuse me." The Queen Mother stretched out her hand from her sleeve and gently waved it to signal everyone to get up and take their seats.

After a while, there will be a palace maid rushing in to serve the first cup of tea and carefully prepared pastries of the new year.

After drinking tea and using pastries, the queen mother and the concubine glanced at each other, then called the palace maid behind her, leaned over and muttered a few words in her ear, and hurriedly withdrew from the main hall.

Ru Concubine played with the tea cup in her hand, and looked at Li Muyun with her eyes, and the words she said outside the hall made Ru Concubine feel uneasy. It seemed that she had known in the morning what she would say today.

However, as soon as she remembered that she could pull out the thorn for herself, she trembled slightly, put the tea cup in her hand on the coffee table, and at the same time withdrew her eyes to look elsewhere.

No one spoke, and the atmosphere in the hall was slightly tense. The beauties didn't even dare to gasp more, they just made eye contact with each other, but they didn't dare to look at anything.

At the same time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, which caused everyone to throw out their eyes and settle on Su Jinyu in the eunuch's arm. It turned out that the Empress Dowager's order was to take Su Jinyu to the palace for questioning.

"The slave and maid knock to see the queen mother, the concubine mother, and the queen mother."

After being locked up in a small black room for one night, Su Jinyu knelt on the ground and kowtowed a little tired. After a night of deliberation, she also prepared a defense speech, and at the same time silently prayed that nothing would happen.

"The mourning family asked you, what were you doing in the castle tower last night? If there is half a point of deception, you should understand the consequences. The Queen Mother stared at Su Jinyu on the ground for a moment, and the Queen Mother did not know anything about her.

Su Jinyu bowed again, and knocked on the ground with her forehead, "Back to the Queen Mother's words, the slave maid heard the sound of fireworks, and ran over out of curiosity, but she didn't want to see the fireworks, but let the Queen Mother catch them back." ”

The Queen Mother bowed her head in disbelief, and then she fixed her eyes on the concubine beside her, cleared her throat and said, "Concubine Ru, if you have anything else to say in front of the mourning family, say it too." ”

For example, the concubine straightened her clothes, got up and blessed the queen mother, and walked to Su Jinyu's side with a light footstep, "Back to the queen mother's words, the concubine doesn't know whether to say something or not, especially in front of so many people, it really shouldn't be said like this, it's better to let the concubine inform the queen mother alone." ”

Of so many people here, more than half of them didn't know about the matter between Ling Yun and Su Jinyu. After hearing Li Muyun's words, Concubine Ru changed her original mind, after all, she just wanted the Queen Mother to know, and it didn't matter if the rest of the people knew.

was afraid that it would damage Ling Yun's face, so Ru Concubine had no choice but to invite this reluctant invitation.

The Queen Mother frowned, she stared at Ru Concubine's calm expression, and said slowly, "If there is any nonsense, you can do it yourself." With that, the Queen Mother got up and walked behind the screen.

Ru Concubine glanced at Li Muyun and Su Jinyu on the ground, and followed the Queen Mother with her steps.
