Chapter 76: The confrontation with the Queen Mother
"Master Su really likes to laugh, how can I accuse you of anything? You help me take care of the prince, Yun Ji is too late to be grateful! What complaints will I have against you? Yun Ji's eyes flickered incessantly, and there was a bit of hatred in her eyes, which completely fell on Qin Susu's eyes.
Qin Susu smiled coldly, with a hint of imperceptible mockery in her words, since Yun Ji had already recognized her, there was no need to pretend to be anything. Furthermore, five years ago and five years later, the woman in front of her had always been her opponent, so she had a kind of hostility towards Yun Ji herself.
"Huh...... Master Su is really good at laughing. Yun Ji smiled, lowered her head slightly, a touch of broken hair on her forehead covered her eyes, and a fierce color flashed in Yun Ji's eyes.
Seeing that Qin Susu and Yun Ji had some competitive meanings, the corners of Baili Cangming's lips suddenly curved, and he glanced at Qin Susu, who was wearing dark blue guard clothes, and walked out. "Let's go, it's not too early now."
Qin Susu naturally followed behind Baili Cangming, with a sword at his waist, and he really looked like a guard.
Pursing her lips, Yun Ji clenched her hands tightly, looked at the two figures in front of her, and suddenly sneered, it's been five years, it's been five years......
The sun in the morning is not so strong, but warm on people.
Baili Cangming and a few people left the palace, the housekeeper had already prepared the chariot, Baili Cangming strode over, got on the chariot, and Yun Ji also walked up with lotus steps after a while.
Qin Susu hesitated, she is now a guard, she can't follow them to get in the chariot together, right? After weighing the pros and cons, Qin Susu still decided to stand next to the chariot and wanted to go all the way to the palace.
Looking at Qin Susu standing under the sun, Yun Ji bent her lips and smiled, and suddenly said in a strange way: "Master Su is going to work harder today......
"What's the point of working hard for the prince?"
Qin Susu said without blushing and without a heartbeat, even if this was not her truth, but when facing Yun Ji, she still said this. The grievance between her and Yun Ji is cut and straightened out, and there are invisible thorns in the words of the two, Yun Ji stabbed over, how can Qin Susu not stab back?
"Come up." Baili Cangming, who had been quiet for a long time, suddenly spoke, his eyebrows twisted, and he looked at Qin Susu, who was a little ruddy from the sun, and couldn't help but shake his head for a moment.
Although she was wearing men's clothes, although she was wearing a human skin mask, it was still difficult to hide Qin Susu's beauty, Qin Susu frowned when she heard this, she was a guard and went up on the chariot, isn't it right?
What is in the heart of Baili Cangming? Why is she getting more and more incomprehensible? Or did she not want to understand him at all, understand him?
With a wry smile, Qin Susu still lowered his head, "My subordinates don't dare to cross the rules." ”
In fact, whether they didn't want to go out of the way or not, both of them understood that Qin Susu just wanted to alienate him.
A wisp of bitterness crossed Baili Cangming's eyes, but in an instant, his eyes became extremely shrewd again, and they became the decisive and sharp Baili Cangming again.
"Come on, this king doesn't want to say it a second time."
Baili Cangming's face remained unchanged, but before there was a sudden increase in a little violence in his voice, Yun Ji saw this, and looked at Qin Susu with a smile in her eyebrows, "Master Su, since the prince has spoken, you can come up." ”
Bei Ya bit his lower lip, Qin Susu frowned, and finally got into the chariot and sat next to Baili Cangming. Qin Susu didn't know how he was feeling now, in short, it was just a sentence, it was very complicated.
The chariot slowly walked towards the palace, and along the way, the atmosphere inside the chariot was very wonderful. Qin Susu and Yun Ji sat on both sides of Baili Cangming respectively, looking a little weird.
Just when he was about to arrive at the palace, the chariot suddenly shook, Qin Susu frowned and fell into his own contemplation, and was so shocked that he almost leaned forward.
Baili Cangming's sword eyebrows were horizontal, and his eyes and hands quickly surrounded Qin Susu, which saved Qin Susu from the danger of falling. Yun Ji on the side almost fell straight into Baili Cangming's arms, but was let by Baili Cangming without a trace. Just hit the wall of the carriage on the side, and Yun Ji groaned in pain.
"What's going on?"
Baili Cangming's words, with a slight anger, his hands still maintained the posture of surrounding Qin Susu, and he didn't seem to have the intention of putting it down.
The voice of the guard sounded outside, "Lord Wang, there is a big stone in the relatively hidden place on the road just now......"
"Big rocks?"
Baili Cangming sneered, I'm afraid someone did it deliberately, "It's none of your business, continue to go to the palace." ”
"Yes."
The guard replied respectfully, and then the chariot walked towards the palace without hurrying.
There was silence in the chariot, and what Baili Cangming and Qin Susu didn't know was that when the chariot shook just now, Yun Ji's forehead hit the frame on the side, and now there was still a little redness on his forehead.
It's just that no one knows about it, and no one cares......
Yun Ji's eyes suddenly became extremely gloomy, she bit her lip tightly, squinted at Qin Susu's hundred miles of life, and incomparable hatred grew in her heart. This time, is Baili Cangming still treating her like this? Or is it just that she is an object of exploitation? She was not reconciled.
"Lord Wang, it's time for you to let go." Qin Susu frowned slightly and said coldly.
Hearing this, Baili Cangming's face changed for a moment, and then let go of Qin Susu.
After a long time, the chariot arrived at the gate of the palace, and after some inspection, the long sword on Qin Susu's waist was left behind, go to the palace, even if you are a guard for hundreds of miles, you must put down the sharp weapon.
After entering the palace, Qin Susu still helplessly followed behind Yun Ji and Baili Cangming, but she always remembered her identity, but she was just a guard in the palace.
After walking through the imperial garden and going around a few more circles, Baili Cangming and others finally arrived at the queen mother's bedroom.
As soon as I entered the queen mother's bedroom, a scent of smoke lingered on the tip of my nose, and every few steps, I saw a somewhat huge figure, but I saw Baili Cangyan twisting that somewhat huge body and walked over, and when I saw Baili Cangming, there was still a smile on my face, "Brother Huang, are you here?" ”
Baili Cangming nodded, "Well, come and see the Queen Mother." ”
Hearing this, Baili Cangyan smiled more and more happily, "Seeing you coming, the queen mother will definitely be very happy." ”
"Really?" A dark light flashed in his eyes, and what was mixed with that period was all cold.
"Oh, Brother Huang, I still have something to do in a while, so I won't accompany you, I'll leave first."
Baili Cangming nodded slightly, and then took Yun Ji and Qin Susu and walked towards the Queen Mother who was sitting on the collapsed place.
Although the Queen Mother is a little older, her charm still exists, especially her grace and luxury, which cannot be imitated.
Xin'er stood next to the Queen Mother, and next to her stood an old woman, who was holding a tray with crystal clear purple grapes on it.
Xin'er took a grape from the tray, carefully peeled off the grape skin, and then put the grape into the queen mother's mouth.
"See the Queen Mother."
Several people saluted the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother on the collapse raised her eyes to look at a few people, her eyes stayed on Yun Ji, and nodded, "Yes, Cangming has vision." ”
"Empress Dowager Xie." Yun Ji turned sideways.
The Queen Mother waved her hand at Yun Ji, "This is Yun Ji, come here to mourn the house." As he spoke, he pretended to squint and looked at her carefully, "It's really like a flower, no wonder Prince Ming will take a fancy to it and ask you directly from the emperor." ”
Yun Ji had a smile on her face, stood up straight and walked towards the Queen Mother, and then sat elegantly next to the Queen Mother, with her hands on her legs.
"Lord Wang, do you want to bring a guard with you when you come to the Queen Mother?"
Xin'er wiped her hands that were full of water stains because of peeling grapes on the cotton cloth, and when she turned her head, she saw Qin Susu, who was standing behind Baili Cangming with a straight back like a gun, and suddenly frowned, and couldn't help but say loudly.
Because she said this, everyone turned their eyes to Qin Susu behind Baili Cangming, Qin Susu's face did not change, but Baili Cangming's face was a little ugly.
"She's the king's personal bodyguard."
Baili Cangming said in a low voice, this voice, as if it came from the underworld, made the domineering heart feel a pang in his heart.
Xin'er unconsciously took a step back, in the final analysis, she was just a maid, and she was arrogant and domineering with the favor of the Queen Mother.
She bit her lip and turned her head to look at the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother quietly gave Xin'er a look, Xin'er seemed to have found a strong support, with the Queen Mother's backstage, what else was she afraid of?
Anyway, if something happens, there is the queen mother in the background. As long as the Queen Mother is in one day, she can be arrogant for one day.
"The personal guards, the prince deserves to be the prince, and they all brought the personal guards to the queen mother's bedroom, this defense is really seamless." There is something to say in my heart.
"This king repeats, she is this king's personal guard, what do you disagree?" Baili Cangming suddenly looked at Xin'er, those eyes were as sharp as a goshawk, "Besides, you are just a maid beside the Queen Mother, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at the king's personal guards?" ”
"It seems that the Queen Mother can't even train a little maid well, since that's the case, then the king will come to train and train." Baili Cangming took a step forward, his eyes were staring at his heart, and his heart suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart, and this ominous feeling gradually expanded, so that Xin'er's face was a little frightened.
"Come on, take this lawless and lawless to the king, and kill him with a rod."
In the queen mother's bedroom, only the slightly angry voice of Baili Cangming sounded. After a while, two rows of guards with knives walked in and walked towards Xin'er. Xin'er looked at the Queen Mother with fear on her face, and the Queen Mother was her only support.
"Lord Ming, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, this is in the mourning family's bedroom." The Queen Mother suddenly stood up, with anger in her voice, she had been in the harem for many years, and the words she said were only majestic.
Those guards with knives who walked towards their hearts hesitated, on one side was the prince Ming, and on the other side was the queen mother, and they couldn't afford to offend the people on both sides.
"Didn't you hear what this king said?"
There was some warning in his voice, he raised his eyes lightly, and his eagle-like eyes looked straight towards the two rows of guards with knives, and the guards with knives were suddenly shocked in their hearts, and they all continued to walk towards Xin'er.
"Presumptuous, this is still the territory of the mourning family, are you impatient to live. Now that you are lawless, is it possible to drag you out and kill you with a rod? ”
The Queen Mother's chest rose and fell one after another, which was enough to show her anger, and the person in front of her really didn't put her in his eyes. She is the queen mother, is it possible that she can't cure these two people? Moreover, one of them is still that Qin Susu, the Qin Susu she dislikes so much!
Yun Ji helped the Queen Mother to sit down, "Queen Mother, you are angry, after all, this Lord Su is the prince's personal guard, and the prince spoils him very much, who knows about this matter, and blames this maid for saying the wrong thing." Yun Ji said with a knife and a stick, obviously adding fuel to the fire, wanting to make the Queen Mother more angry.
Qin Susu on the side listened to her words, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, full of mocking arcs.
Seeing the guard with the knife walking towards Xin'er, the Queen Mother's eyes suddenly kicked, and the palm with the jade ring slapped on the collapse.
At this time, the guards with knives had already walked to Xin'er, but they were still hesitating whether to take Xin'er away and kill him with a cane.
At best, they are just some guards with knives, but the Queen Mother and Prince Ming, these two are not easy to mess with, and if they provoke one of them, they don't know how they died.
"Queen Mother, you have to save the slave." After all, Xin'er panicked, and when he saw those guards approaching him, he was so frightened that he stepped back. Who doesn't know the style of Lord Ming? Ruthless, cold, cruel. If it was really planted in his hands, she was afraid that 10,000 deaths would not be enough.
"Lord Ming, thinking about the face of the mourning family, how about sparing my heart once today?" The Queen Mother finally slowed down her tone and seemed to be discussing.
Baili Cangming just raised his eyebrows slightly, and then the corners of his mouth hooked a bloodthirsty arc. "This king remembers when the Queen Mother became so soft-hearted? It seems that all along, Empress Dowager Qiao, you are also vigorous and resolute, when you were still the queen, everyone praised you for having a set of methods for governing the harem, is it because now that you are old, your heart has also become softer? ”
The meaning of these words is no matter how obvious it is, maybe others can't hear anything, but Empress Dowager Qiao can hear it clearly and truly. His face suddenly became more and more pale, and he stared at Baili Cangming with hatred.
"What a prince, do you think the mourning family really can't do anything about you?"
"Queen Mother, you are angry-" Yun Ji suddenly patted her on the back, and then persuaded her gently and considerately. But while they were not paying attention, they whispered something in the Queen Mother's ear, and listening to Yun Ji's words, the Queen Mother's complexion eased slightly.
