Chapter 237
Baguio Palace
Liu Er knelt in front of Concubine Li, trembling, her head almost lowered to the ground, and she didn't dare to breathe.
Concubine Li sat on the ground, squinted at her, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then slowly asked, "If this palace is not mistaken, you are Liu'er, right?" ”
Liu Er didn't dare to hesitate, and replied in fear: "Hui Li Concubine Niangniang, slave, slave maid Liu'er." ”
"Do you know why Hongu summoned you?" She asked.
"The slave doesn't know ......," she replied in a voice like a mosquito.
When she was in Wangxian Tower before, Concubine Xian Niangniang taught Concubine Ning and Concubine Li's maidservants respectively for her, and slapped their faces in public. Liu Er thought to herself, is it because of this reason?
Concubine Xian Niangniang said that although she established her authority in front of those presumptuous palace maids, after this incident, their situation would be more dangerous, and she once told them to be cautious in everything.
They don't dare to embarrass the concubines, so they will naturally find opportunities to make things difficult for them.
But so many days have passed, and they have been peaceful. Unexpectedly, I was arrested today.
"Look up." Concubine Li ordered in a low voice.
Liu Er felt angry in her heart, and then raised her head, but she didn't dare to look at her directly.
"Why, are you scared of Hongu? Was Hongu born with an abominable face? She asked softly.
"It's not...... Slaves, slaves and slaves are just ...... Niangniang's status is noble......" Liu Er explained in trepidation as she looked up.
But she was suddenly stunned, what happened to Concubine Li? Why veil on a hot day?
Concubine Li's cold eyes suddenly swept away, and Liu Er hurriedly gathered her curiosity, lowered her eyes slightly, and was respectful.
Concubine Li glanced at her and asked leisurely, "Are you doing well in Guan Ju Palace?" ”
Liu Er was a little surprised, and didn't understand why she asked this, but still replied respectfully: "Xie Niangniang cares, the slave is very good......
"Really? What about Concubine Xian to you? ”
Liu Er chuckled in her heart, surprised, and faintly felt that she seemed to have something to say.
"Concubine Niangniang treats slaves and maids...... It's also good. ”
Concubine Li looked at her and asked with a smile: "How does it compare to this palace?" ”
Liu Er couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at her, her kind tone and obvious smile made her feel very frightened.
"How can you say that you have also served the palace, although the time is very short, but it is not only a master and servant, but also fate, do you say yes?"
She served the two mothers for about the same time, but the treatment was very different.
In Baguio Palace, be cautious, it is common to be beaten and scolded, no matter whether you have done anything wrong or not, anyway, if you are in a bad mood to catch up with the master, if you are unlucky, you will consider yourself unlucky.
In Guanju Palace, it is more like a family, eating at the same table together, and speaking is not so restrained, Concubine Xian Niangniang will always listen to their ideas, and basically will not restrict their freedom or corporal punishment of them.
As long as they don't make serious mistakes, Concubine Xian can tolerate them.
But she made an unforgivable mistake. She knew that after this matter was over, she would also be kicked out of Guan Ju Palace, and she had no way of knowing what kind of fate she would have in the future.
Perhaps, she will die. It's not a pity for her to die, but what she cares about most is her family.
Concubine Ning said that as long as this task is completed, not only will her family be released, but they will also be treated well. And Concubine Xian also said that as long as she cooperates, she will also ensure the safety of her family.
And at that time, she instinctively chose to believe in Concubine Xian.
The various masters in the palace are actually similar in nature. Fight for the wind and jealousy, and fight for power. Slaves are the most humble and insignificant inferior people in their eyes, how can they have any affection?
Liu Er knew it, but said: "It is the honor of a slave to be able to serve Concubine Li. It's a pity that the slave is stupid and stupid, and she doesn't have that blessing to stay with her mother......"
"Heh, I didn't expect to stay in Guan Ju Palace for a while, this mouth can talk a lot."
Liu Er heard her taunt, but lowered her eyes and pursed her lips without saying a word.
"I heard that your master is sick, how is it now?" Concubine Li suddenly asked.
"...... OK. The doctor said that as long as you take medicine regularly and recuperate quietly, your illness will gradually improve. Liu Er replied.
"Really? You're disappointed. ”
Liu Er's heart tightened, and she raised her eyes with some trepidation, "Slaves, slaves don't understand what Niangniang means......
"Don't you understand? Do you need this palace to make it clear? Concubine Li said coldly.
"Slave and maid are stupid ......"
Concubine Li slapped the table and reprimanded, "Do you still want to hide it in front of this palace?" Do you want to be punished by this palace to serve you before you are willing to tell the truth? ”
"Mother forgive...... Slaves, slaves and maids really don't know......" Liu Er knocked her head to the ground and pleaded guilty again and again.
"Don't know? Okay, then this palace will give you some hints. Is Concubine Xian's illness an accident or man-made? ”
Liu Er was shocked, and for a moment, she raised her head in amazement and stared at her eyes in surprise.
"Or maybe I want Motonomiya to be more clear. Did you poison it? ”
"No......" Liu Er just wanted to defend herself, but Ruyi interrupted her words.
"In front of the mother, you don't have to quibble! I saw you drugged in the soup with my own eyes! ”
Liu Er was dumbfounded, and her face was pale.
Concubine Li looked at her and said, "Don't worry, this palace will not expose you, nor will it embarrass you." What you want to do with that woman is none of the business of this palace. As long as you tell Hongu honestly who instructed you to do this, Hongu will let you go back. ”
"Slave maid......" She seemed to have scruples.
"What you said today is only known by God, you know me, and half a sentence will not be passed out of this Baguio Palace, so you don't have to worry about the people behind you who will condemn you. On the contrary, if you don't confess truthfully, then this palace does not guarantee that this matter will not be known to your master. You say, the emperor loves Concubine Xian so much, if the emperor knew that someone was deliberately plotting to kill his concubine, how would he react? ”
Concubine Li paused and said, "If you want to be punished by the Nine Clans." ”
When Liu Er heard this, she was so frightened that she hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Niangniang, the slave said, the slave said everything, please don't tell the emperor." ”
Concubine Li pursed her lips in satisfaction.
Hmph, a cheap maid is a cheap maid, and she doesn't shed tears when she doesn't see the coffin.
"It's Concubine Ning! Concubine Ning asked the slave to do this! The emperor goes to Guan Ju Palace every day, and Concubine Ning is not angry, so she wants to teach Concubine Xian a lesson. ”
When Concubine Li heard this, she asked, "So, the medicine was also given to you by Concubine Ning?" ”
Liu Er nodded and replied: "The slave didn't dare to take the medicine at first, in case Concubine Xian Niangniang has something long and two short, our entire Guan Ju Palace people can't get out of it." But Concubine Ning said that this medicine will not poison people. She just wants the emperor to alienate Concubine Xian. Concubine Ning also said that this medicine was specially made by her to find someone to practice, and even the imperial doctor would not find anything suspicious......
Concubine Li narrowed her eyes, and she asked in a cold voice: "So the medicine is exclusively secret, only she has it, right?" ”
Liu Er said: "The slave and maid don't know, the slave and maid just obey orders. But Concubine Ning said that when the emperor is established, she will give the antidote to the slaves. The slave and maid were also forced to be helpless, otherwise they would not dare to do such a head-killing thing! Concubine Xian Niangniang treats the slave maid very well, the slave maid originally thought, this medicine can't kill people, and when the emperor is established, Concubine Xian Niangniang will be fine......"
Immediately?
Concubine Li's mind sank, and then she realized something, and her chest was suddenly filled with a raging anger.
All right! She finally got it.
No wonder she suddenly contracted a strange disease when the grounding period was approaching, and she planned to use the same way to make the emperor dislike her, dislike her, so that she would not have a chance to be elected.
This Concubine Ning is simply hateful!
However, even if she doesn't have a chance, there is still Concubine Lan. Why is it that she is fine, but Concubine Lan is fine?
Concubine Ning is just a little concubine, and she has nothing to do, and her mother's family has no power. No matter how it turns, it won't be her turn. Unless she gets rid of all the women in the harem.
She pondered.
Don't......
Concubine Li pounded the table.
Concubine Ning would never have the courage to murder her, unless there was someone with a higher position behind her who instructed her.
And that person......
Except for Concubine Lan, there is no second suspicious candidate.
This Concubine Ning must have taken refuge in Concubine Lan.
Now that Concubine Lan is in charge of the Six Palaces, she is already in control, and the other concubines are not competing with her. The only one who can compete with Concubine Lan is her.
Therefore, Concubine Lan wanted to take advantage of her grounding to cultivate her own power. She had just taken power and couldn't kill people in the harem, so she used such despicable means!
The more Concubine Li thought about it, the more determined she became.
Damn woman, she's not going to let her get away with it!

Guan Ju Palace
Ah Jiu sat idly in the gazebo, taking the fish feed into the lake, looking at the koi fish rushing up to grab food, slightly hooking his lips, very comfortable.
"Mother." Liu Er came behind her.
Ah Jiu glanced at her sideways, "All said?" ”
Liu Er replied: "It's all according to Niangniang's orders." ”
Ah Jiu asked casually, "Are you suspicious?" ”
"Not yet. Concubine Li was very angry, she should have believed it. ”
Ah Jiu praised: "Well, this time it was a good job. ”
Ah Jiu sprinkled all the feed into the lake, then straightened up, touched a hosta from his head and handed it to her.
"Niangniang......" Liu Er looked at her with some surprise and didn't dare to take it.
"You'll be rewarded."
Liu Er waved her hand again and again, "No, don't ...... slaves"
"Whatever you want, I'll take it for you. There are many places to use money when you go out in the future. It also takes money to run away, so don't expect me to send someone to protect you all the way after you get out. Save some money for yourself, so you can get a bodyguard to escort you home later. ”
"Niangniang......" When Liu Er heard her say this, she was so ashamed that she wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake to apologize.
"Niangniang can give the slave and maid a chance to redeem their merits, and the slave and maid are already very grateful, and they dare not expect anything more."
Ah Jiu couldn't help but stuff her, turned around and left.
Liu Er froze in place, and then heard her muttering as she walked, "I hate you people who grind and trumble the most......"
Liu Er looked down at the hairpin, her nose was sore, and tears fell down.
"Hey, do you still believe in this Liu'er?" After Ah Jiu entered the house, Gong Wuwen jumped out and asked suspiciously.
