Chapter 42: Xu Qingyan He Shiyao dies
"The queen is not feeling well?" He Guifei was stunned, and hurriedly got up, "Then the concubine won't bother the mother, just go to Shiyao by yourself, and don't trouble the mother." ”
Xu Qingyan waved his hand, "The palace has already ordered Xia Chan to find it, since the concubine is here, she will wait in Zhengyang Palace for a while, maybe Xia Chan will bring Miss He back in a while." ”
Concubine He Guifei looked hesitant, "But, Niangniang, you are not feeling well, if the concubine is still bothering you here, if Your Majesty knows, he will blame the concubine." ”
"The palace is fine, the concubine doesn't have to worry, Your Majesty is not an unreasonable person, and the concubine doesn't have to worry." Xu Qingyan smiled faintly. At the same time, he took her hand and gently pressed her shoulder, "Guifei just wait patiently." ”
He Guifei couldn't refuse, so she sat down and didn't mention leaving.
Xia Cicada's speed was very fast, and after a short time, he came back and said, "Niangniang, I have asked all the Niangniang's palaces, Miss He is not there, and no one has seen Miss He." ”
Xu Qingyan frowned: "It's not here, what's going on?" Send someone to find it again, the palace is so big, the palace doesn't believe that no one can be found. ”
"Niangniang, the slave maid thinks that there are many flowers and trees in the imperial garden, maybe Miss He is hiding in the flowers and trees, so she didn't find it?" Xia Chan's eyes flashed slightly, "Niangniang, why don't we send someone to search carefully in the Imperial Garden, maybe we can find Miss He." ”、
He Guifei suddenly reacted, "Niangniang, the concubine thinks what Miss Xia Chan said is reasonable. ”
Xu Qingyan nodded, "Then Xia Cicada, you go to the Imperial Garden to look for it, and you must find someone." "Serious look.
"Niangniang, you are not feeling well, and Miss Xia Chan still has to take care of you, so let the concubine go to the imperial garden to find it by herself, and you won't trouble Niangniang." As she spoke, Concubine He also smiled apologetically at Xu Qingyan, "Niangniang, the concubine will leave first, Niangniang will rest if she is unwell, and the concubine will come back another day to ask Niangniang for peace." ”
Xu Qingyan didn't keep her, "The concubine walks slowly, the palace will also send someone to continue to look for Miss He, and if someone is found, the palace will immediately send someone to tell the concubine." ”
Concubine He blessed her body, "Thank you Niangniang, the concubine said goodbye." After speaking, Concubine He Guifei took the hands of the palace people and left.
Xia Chan sent He Guifei to the door, and when she saw that He Guifei was far away, she hurriedly waved all the palace people away, then closed the door, and when she turned around, her face changed suddenly.
"Mother, the slave is not right......
Before Xia Chan finished speaking, Xu Qingyan took over, "Bengong knows what you found?" "He Shiyao, a good and decent living person, how could he disappear in the palace? Judging from Concubine He's performance, Xu Qingyan had already noticed that this matter was a trap set by Concubine He for her.
"The concubines and concubines of each palace, the slaves and maids have all asked, no one has ever seen Miss He, but there is a little palace maid in our Zhengyang Palace who said that she seems to have seen Miss He's back, just half an hour ago."
How strange this matter is, Xia Chan felt uneasy, so as soon as He Guifei left, she hurriedly told Xu Qingyan about it.
Xu Qingyan's eyes were slightly cold, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, thoughtfully, "He Shiyao had an accident, and it was in Zhengyang Palace." ”
Xia Chan's eyes widened, "This...... Who in Zhengyang Palace would kill her? ”
The queen mother did not kill He Shiyao, the palace people in Zhengyang Palace and He Shiyao have no grievances and no hatred, who will kill people?
"Look at the Zhengyang Palace, who has a grudge against He Shiyao?" Xu Qingyan's expression was calm, his eyes were flowing, and his eyes were as clear as a spring water.
Who has a grudge against He Shiyao? Needless to say, there is only Queen Xu Qingyan who has a little friction with He Shiyao.
"But you didn't kill people." Xia Cicada bit her lip tightly, and she directly felt a little chill all over her body.
Xu Qingyan sneered, "If this palace says no, will anyone believe it?" People only believe what they want to believe, this palace has His Majesty's only favor, and it is the queen of the main palace, which of the concubines in the palace is not jealous? As long as the palace is in trouble, I'm afraid that everyone will want to come up and step on the palace. ”
Law Zexiu gave her a relatively peaceful harem, but it was only relatively peaceful, and where there were many women, right and wrong were never indispensable. Xu Qingyan was born with a prophecy that she was destined to be a queen, so she was raised according to the queen's standards from childhood to adulthood, and she has always known the way of the harem.
"Mother, what should we do now?" A cold sweat had already broken out on Xia Chan's forehead, "Your Majesty is not in the palace right now, I'm afraid that Concubine He Guifei has already calculated it." ”
If the law is cultivated, no one can move Xu Qingyan, but now that the law is not cultivated, Xia Chan is anxious.
"Xia Chan, don't worry." Xu Qingyan smiled at her instead, "Brother Xiu is not here, I also have a way to protect myself, I believe that someone should come in a while, you can say whatever you know, you don't have to hide anything, and don't be afraid, everything has me." ”
"Niangniang, it's useless to be a slave." Xia Chan knelt down towards Xu Qingyan, feeling deeply sorry, she was not a clever maid and couldn't give Xu Qingyan any help.
Xu Qingyan smiled, reached out to help her up, and patted the back of her hand, "Don't blame yourself, you're fine." ”
"Bengong is a little tired, you help Bengong to lie on the bed for a while."
Xia Chan nodded and helped Xu Qingyan to lie on the bed......
Not long after, a shout suddenly came from outside, "The Queen Mother has arrived." ”
Xu Qingyan slowly opened her eyes, and sure enough, she just closed her eyes, but in a moment, someone came, and the person who came was still the Queen Mother, and then thinking of the behavior of He Guifei and He Shiyao these days, Xu Qingyan instantly figured out all the tricks.
"Xia Chan, help the palace up." Xu Qingyan's voice was faint and a little lazy.
Xia Chan helped Xu Qingyan up, Xu Qingyan looked down at his outfit, and he was not too rude, so he walked out.
"The concubine has seen the queen mother, I don't know what the queen mother has to say?" Xu Qingyan saluted the Queen Mother in a formal manner.
The Queen Mother looked at Xu Qingyan, although her clothes and makeup were not rude, but she was a little embarrassed, the corners of her skirt were slightly wrinkled, and the bun on her head was not neat.
"The queen is just resting?" The Queen Mother did not immediately explain her intentions, but asked Xu Qingyan what she was doing.
Xu Qingyan nodded, smiled and apologized, "Please forgive the queen mother, the concubine has been a little unhappy in the past few days, and her body is especially lacking today, so she lay on the bed for a while, which delayed the salute to the queen mother, and asked the queen mother to forgive her sins." ”
Her attitude was sincere, and the Queen Mother didn't say anything more.
"Queen, originally you were the queen of the middle palace, but the mourning family is old, and you don't want to take care of the affairs of the harem." The queen looked a little serious, "But today's matter, the mourning family has to come forward." ”
Xu Qingyan looked puzzled, "What happened today?" What did the Queen Mother say? The concubine was stupid, and asked the queen mother to make it clear. ”
"You don't know?" The Queen Mother's brows furrowed, and deep folds appeared on her forehead.
Xu Qingyan looked confused and shook his head, "The concubine doesn't know." ”
As soon as the words fell, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked, "What the Queen Mother said about Miss He's disappearance?" The concubine has already sent someone to look for her, I believe there will be news soon, Miss He is a big living person, she won't be lost in the palace, right? ”
"Queen Mother, you pretend to be true, you obviously know where Shi Yao is, but you don't know, and pretended to send Xia Chan to find it, Queen Mother, you are really a good queen." He Guifei hadn't walked in yet, but the voice arrived first.
Xu Qingyan turned his head and looked at He Guifei, "Guifei, what do you mean by this?" How does Hongu know where Miss He is? Concubine He, this palace has been unwell recently, and she has never left the door of Zhengyang Palace, and she has not even gone out of the dormitory, where did she see Miss He in this palace? ”
However, Concubine He ignored her, but walked to the middle of the main hall and knelt down towards the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, Shi Yao is no longer angry, ask the Queen Mother to be the master of Shi Yao." As she spoke, Concubine He also wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with an embroidered handkerchief.
"What? Miss He is dead? Xu Qingyan's face was stunned, and he hurriedly walked to He Guifei, "He Guifei, you make it clear, how could Miss He die?" How did she die? ”
Concubine He raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Qingyan fiercely, "How did Shi Yao die, doesn't the queen mother know?" ”
"Queen Mother, you are so ruthless. Yes, this palace admits that Shi Yao is very angry and wants to enter the palace as a concubine, so she always wants to be able to enter His Majesty's eyes, but the last time she was hit by the board, Shi Yao was also afraid, and she didn't dare to get to His Majesty's side again, and she couldn't dodge when she saw Niangniang, but why did you refuse to let go of Shi Yao and kill her, Queen Mother. Queen mother, you are a queen, as a queen, be virtuous and virtuous, but what about you, what have you done! ”
In the face of He Guifei's sharp accusation, Xu Qingyan's lips were tightly pursed, and his face was faintly pale.
"Queen, even if you are the queen, you don't want to do whatever you want!" He Guifei reprimanded again, and then kowtowed deeply to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, please be the master for Shi Yao and the concubine." ”
"You talk nonsense!" When Xu Qingyan spoke, her voice trembled a little, she covered her heart, and her face was as white as a piece of paper.
"Queen Mother, Miss He was not killed by the concubine, if it weren't for the concubine who just said so, the concubine wouldn't know that Miss He was dead, ask the Queen Mother to learn from it." Xu Qingyan also knelt down on her knees towards the Queen Mother.
She didn't say much, she just shouted for herself, but she knelt on the ground, her back was straight, her eyes were clear and firm, and she looked straight at the Queen Mother's scrutinizing eyes, and she didn't mean to dodge.
Xu Qingyan's reaction made the Queen Mother's heart a little uncertain, she couldn't see any weakness in her eyes, only calm, her eyes burning, it seemed that all filth could not be invaded.
Such a person, either she is really wronged, or she is very deep in the city and is extremely good at covering up. For a while, the Queen Mother couldn't figure out if Xu Qingyan was lying?
