After Chunlan left, the Queen Mother immediately asked Mama Liu: "What's wrong?" ”
"The Queen Mother doesn't know that Zheng Mengjing's father is Zheng Chengxian."
"That's the ......" The Queen Mother was surprised, seeing her mother nodding, she felt pity, "It's a poor child." ”
"Whether it is pitiful or not, it is someone else's life. The queen mother only cares about her body and waits for her grandson to take care of her old age. ”
"Don't worry, go to the Buddha Hall with the mourning family in a few days to pray for the queen," the queen mother's tone was flat, and the previous joy was for Chunlan to see, "However, that Cuifang is a poor child, the mourning family wants her to come over to serve in the mourning palace, you go, let the emperor have a free trip." ”
When Mama Liu arrived at the Heart Cultivation Palace, she saw that Feng Bao and many guards were waiting outside the hall, and the door of the palace was not open, so she stepped forward and asked, "Why is the door of the palace closed in broad daylight?" ”
"Hello Mama Liu, Zheng Cairen and the emperor are in it at this time." Feng Bao said and glanced at Mama meaningfully.
Mama Liu thought to herself that as Chunlan said, it was true that the emperor favored Zheng Mengjing, and asked: "Zheng Cai is not yet sixteen years old, how can he ......?"
"No, no, the emperor approved the excerpts, Zheng Cairen was just serving tea inside, and it was ordered by the emperor." Feng Bao knew that Mama Liu was not a fool of the Queen Mother's side, and added, "If Mama has anything to say, our family will pass it on immediately." ”
"Then there is no need to pass it on, it's just that the queen mother wants to see the emperor and let the emperor go to Cining Palace when he is free, Gonggong Feng, you can wait for the emperor to be free before passing the word." Mama Liu was originally a rule-abider, so she was a little dissatisfied with the emperor's recent irregularities, so she deliberately raised her voice and didn't leave after speaking, just waited in place.
Mama Liu's voice was so loud that both the emperor and the dream could hear it. Dream thought that the grandmother outside dared to be so loud at the door of the emperor's palace, the origin must not be simple, so he quickly retired. The emperor was also in a hurry to come out in person, and saw that Mama Liu was still waiting, although she was holding her breath in her heart, she didn't have a seizure: "The queen mother is looking for something to do with her son, and she wants Mama Liu to come and wait for me in person, Feng Bao, go to Cining Palace." ”
In the blink of an eye, evening came, and there was a lot of red glow in the sky. The dream took Yuzhi by the hand and walked towards the cold palace with some nervousness. Since the emperor had not been on the throne for a long time, he had not accepted too many concubines before, and Qin Xiangxiang was alone in the cold palace at the moment. In the dream, I saw some eunuchs coming out with whips from a distance, and when I went in, I saw Qin Xiangxiang lying on the ground, with open skin and flesh on his body, and his expression was extremely painful. Seeing that the dream was coming, he reluctantly sat up and looked at her with some defensiveness: "Why are you here, come to see my miserable situation?" ”
The dream didn't pay attention to it, and asked directly: "Why can't you get along with me several times?" ”
Qin Xiangxiang snorted: "The emperor pampers me on the surface, but he actually thinks about you, I can see it." Although I am a person who does not admit defeat, but you are not yet sixteen, and it is too late to accept favor, if this is the case. But you have long suspected that I killed Cuilan, and you are planning to denounce me, do you think I don't know? ”
The dream was strange: "I suspect you, I have never made it clear to anyone, and I have no intention of telling it!" ”
Qin Xiangxiang sneered: "Heh, in front of me, he pretended to be innocent who didn't know anything, but I heard people tell me it really well, on the night Cuilan died, how you and Wang Qiao and Li Jinghan talked about Cuilan's suspicions, how they thought about going to the queen to complain, I know all this!" ”
The dream was shocked, and he did say something suspicious, but the three of them were just guessing that day, let alone using this incident to report Qin Xiangxiang.
"If we want to denounce it, why don't we do it so long until now? Do you know you've been taken advantage of? Who is that man? ”
Qin Xiangxiang's lower body had been beaten by the whip with nails and flesh and blood, her hands were supporting the ground, and there was no good meat in her hands, even so, she still took a step forward, gritted her teeth and said: "I won't tell you, even if you didn't have this heart that day, you will harm me if I have such an end!" Cuilan's death is also exposed by you, and it is all your fault! Just guess, no matter how you guess, you will never think that it is her! After saying that, he suddenly got up and grabbed Dream Realm's hand hard. The dream was defenseless, and she tried her best to break free but couldn't get out, Yuzhi hurriedly went up and kicked Qin Xiangxiang hard, and she let go. Although he broke free, Dream Realm's arm was still scratched by Qin Xiangxiang's nails and oozed blood. Ignoring the dream, he only covered it with his hand and asked again, "Who is it?" Who eavesdrops on us? ”
The cold palace has not been cleaned for many years, the ground is thick with dust, and it has rained for so many days, and there is still some mud in some places. Qin Xiangxiang's hands were full of dried dirt stains and bloodstains, and she still struggled to sit up when she grabbed the ground, and her smile became more and more weird: "You will have retribution, hahahaha, who made you meddle...... Haha...... "Seeing her so crazy, Dream and Yuzhi were so frightened that the two of them hurriedly ran out.
After running out, the two of them were still apprehensive, who could have the opportunity to hear their conversation, and what was the purpose of attracting Qin Xiangxiang to target her like this?
On the way back to the palace, Mengjing's hand was scratched painfully and still felt strange when he thought about it, so he couldn't help but ask Yuzhi: "Yuzhi, who are the slaves and maids who kept vigil that day?" ”
"Little master, the slave and maid also suspect that someone was eavesdropping on that day, but after a long time, the slave and maid can't remember clearly. The situation was sudden that day, and the palace was in a mess, so the slave went back to look at the night booklet......"
"This matter, I have to take the time to go to Zhongcui Palace, let Sister Qiao and Sister Li think about it together......" The two went back slowly, and the sunset sprinkled on the Forbidden City, but they couldn't shine on the cold palace alone, the dark, damp and dirty place, whoever went in it would be ruined. Zheng Mengjing thought like this, and felt a little more pity for Qin Xiangxiang in his heart.
"Little Lord, what do you think of the Qin family's affairs?"
"She just wants to get ahead too much, she wants to win too much, but she didn't know that she was calculated early, and perhaps, we were also calculated by that person......"
