Chapter Seventy-Three

As soon as Ye Zichen returned to the room, he saw that Mu Ranyue was in a trance, and her expression was not very good, so she walked over and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Suddenly hearing someone speak, Mu Ranyue was taken aback coldly, "When did you come?" ”

"Just now, but what happened?"

Mu Ranyue told Ye Zichen what happened in the palace.

Ye Zichen also heard about this today, and as for the inside story, he thought he probably knew it.

"So, you want to save the Queen?"

Mu Ranyue nodded, but now that she lives outside the palace, she doesn't know much about the situation in the palace, so she doesn't know where to start.

And Ye Zichen thought about it, and said: "You don't have to worry about this matter, Your Majesty will not treat the queen like this, after all, she is still pregnant with a dragon heir." ”

"However, Sister Han can't be wronged like this." Mu Ran Yue said.

"It's nature. Don't worry, I'll let someone find out about it, you don't have to worry. Ye Zichen touched her head and said with relief.

"You can also check the matter of the harem?" Mu Ranyue looked at him suspiciously.

Ye Zichen chuckled, "Why, don't believe in your husband's ability?" ”

Mu Ranyue shook her head, of course she knew that Ye Zichen's ability was not small, but the greater his ability, the more uneasy she was in her heart, and this uneasiness started from the story he told him about the jade pendant.

Recently, she looked at Ye Zichen carefully, and the love in his eyes didn't seem to be fake, but there were still many things in his eyes that he couldn't understand.

Three days later, Mu Qingyi suddenly came to the door, which caught Mu Ranyue off guard.

"Sister Huanghuang, why are you here?" Mu Ranyue greeted him in surprise.

"Naturally, I came to see you." Mu Qingyi said with a smile.

Mu Ranyue smiled, took Mu Qingyi into the house and sat down, and ordered someone to serve tea.

Mu Qingyi took a sip of tea and slowly said the purpose: "The queen was grounded, presumably my sister also knows about it, right?" ”

Mu Ranyue nodded, "I wonder what the imperial sister thinks about this matter?" ”

"I naturally believe that the queen is innocent, and I have been with the queen for many years, and I also know her character. And because of the fact that Niangniang was grounded, there are now people in the Yasukuni Mansion who are panicking, not only worried about the Niangniang in the palace, but also afraid that His Majesty will be angry with the mansion. Mu Qingyi sighed.

"These royal sisters don't have to think about it, the queen is pregnant, and Your Majesty will not treat her in terms of the child's morality. And this will happen that day, so I went to the palace to find the imperial brother. There was disappointment in the tone of the imperial brother, but more than that, he couldn't believe it, so I think the imperial brother should also believe in the imperial brother's selfish heart. Mu Ranyue said lightly.

"Hearing you say this, my heart will be half relieved. It's just that the queen can't suffer this grievance in vain, what does my sister think? "After all, the queen came out of the Yasukuni Mansion, and she must not be accused of murdering the emperor's heir.

Speaking of this, Mu Ranyue suddenly felt bored, although Ye Zichen promised that he would be able to return the queen's innocence in a few days, but he was really uneasy in his heart, so he went to the palace again and asked some relevant people, but he only understood the whole story.

On that day, Han Susu and the concubine went out for a walk, and met by the river, the concubine proposed to say a few words alone with Han Susu, Han Susu was not easy to refuse, so the palace people retreated, and at this time, only the two of them were left by the river.

Who knew that it didn't take long for the concubine to fall into the river, and the child was naturally gone, and the concubine claimed that the queen pushed herself into the river, and there was no one else around them at that time, so the people in the harem also believed her words. After all, tiger poison does not eat children, and the concubine will never gamble with children.

Mu Ranyue told Mu Qingyi about it now, and Mu Qingyi was also very shocked, if this is the case, then the children in the concubine's father and son are all killed by herself, except for the queen, but who can believe that a woman will kill her own child with her own hands?

So, this is really tricky, because there is not even a witness to it.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside: "Your Highness, Xiao Lizi asks to see you, and all important matters are reported to Your Highness." ”

Xiao Lizi is the person who served Mu Ranyue in Chaoyang Palace before, and now he is working as an errand in Qiande Palace, although he is not the number one, but he is also a second-class eunuch, and Mu Ranyue has always trusted him.

And in the past few days, Mu Ranyue asked him to help him pay attention to the miscarriage of the concubine in the palace, and if there was any news, he would go out of the palace to report.

Now that he is here, Mu Ranyue is very excited.

"Let him in." Mu Ranyue hurriedly commanded.

"Yes."

Xiao Lizi was sweating profusely, very eager, but her expression seemed to be full of joy.

Just as he was about to salute, Mu Ranyue couldn't wait to stop him: "Okay, little Lizi, don't be polite, if you have anything to say, say it quickly." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Xiao Lizi wiped the sweat from her face and said with some excitement, "Your Highness, the queen is fine." ”

"Nothing? What's going on? Could it be that the royal brother found out something? Hearing this answer, Mu Ranyue and Mu Qingyi were naturally pleasantly surprised, but at the same time, they were also full of doubts.

"Back to His Royal Highness, His Majesty found out that it was the concubine's own miscarriage and framed the queen's mother, and immediately became angry, and said that such a femme fatale woman was not worthy to stay in the palace, so he killed the concubine. And the queen mother was lifted from the ground, and His Majesty also said that the mother was wronged in this matter and gave a lot of things down. ”

"And do you know the specifics?" Mu Ranyue asked again.

"Back to His Highness, His Majesty sent all the palace people out that day, and the servants thought about His Highness's orders, so they listened carefully outside. Only then did I learn that the concubine should be a fine work sent by another country. ”

Hearing this, Mu Qingyi was surprised, "Fine? How is this possible? Isn't she the daughter of a tobe squire? ”

And these little plums don't know, after all, he didn't work as an errand in Qiande Palace, so he didn't know a lot of things.

However, Mu Ranyue was also very happy to get the news that the queen was safe, and as for the rest, it was not something she could manage.

"Okay, you're doing a good job." Mu Ranyue asked Yun Sheng to bring him a bag of silver.

Holding the heavy silver, Xiao Lizi happily thanked him and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, if there is anything in the future, as long as the slave can do it, he will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire." ”

"Okay, this palace knows your loyalty, and there is no need to say more polite words, you can step back first."

After Xiao Lizi left, Mu Qingyi sighed: "I really didn't expect that concubine to be a fine work, and His Majesty has been very fond of her recently, I don't know how much news she has passed out." ”

"yes, but fortunately, it was found out." Mu Ranyue sighed, and thought to herself that her exposure should be inseparable from Ye Zichen. It's just that I don't know how Ye Zichen knows this.

But Han Susu cleared up her grievances, and they were naturally very happy, so the two talked about other things after this topic.

In the evening, Ye Zichen returned to the room, and Mu Ranyue immediately asked him about the concubine.

Ye Zichen already knew that she would ask, because she replied: "When I was a child, Master took me to travel to other countries, and I also have an understanding of the differences between people in various countries. So when I first saw the concubine, I felt that she was not like a Chu person. ”

"Is that so?" Mu Ranyue was skeptical.

Ye Zichen's heart jumped, stroking the hair on the top of her head, and her expression was still faint: "What, don't believe me?" ”

Seeing that Ye Zichen's expression was the same as usual, there was nothing wrong with it, and her eyes revealed her doting, Mu Ranyue couldn't help but shake her head, she thought, even if she didn't believe anyone, she shouldn't believe him.

Now, the matter of the concubine has come to an end, Mu Ranyue has also counted a matter of concern, and then went to the palace to see Han Susu, this time Sister Han was wronged, and she must be very uncomfortable.

But Ye Zichen's mood is getting more and more complicated, he knows that his life experience can't be hidden for long, and he has looked at Mu Ranyue several times, he wants to tell everything and everything, thinking that if he tells it himself, she should be considerate of himself.

It's just that he still didn't say it after all. Ye Zichen couldn't help laughing at himself, when did he become so timid?

The matter of the concubine really made Mu Xuanche angry, but he didn't expect that the woman he had spoiled for so long was actually a spy. In a fit of rage, he ordered him to be executed, but when he calmed down and thought that he might be able to ask something from the woman's mouth, he kept her secretly.

It's just that I didn't expect that the concubine was a strong woman, no matter how she was tortured, but she refused to say anything, and after seven days, the concubine finally seemed to be unable to hold on, and offered to see him and tell him a secret.

The concubine was already dying, and with the last trace of strength, she said softly: "Your Majesty, Marquis Wucheng ......"

Before she finished speaking, the concubine ran out of breath.

Just these few words shocked Mu Xuanche's heart, but before he could think about it, he heard the waiter report: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent document of eight hundred miles from the border gate." ”

Hearing this, Mu Xuanche stretched out his hand and took the paperwork.

And when Mu Xuanche read this document, his face became more and more ugly, and after reading it, the anger in his heart simply grew like a vine, and he didn't pay attention to Fang Cai's matter.

The document said that Yunguo suddenly sent troops to attack Muzhou on the border of Chu State, and the soldiers stationed in Muzhou were overwhelmed and lost Muzhou. Yun Guo officially declared war on Chu State in this way for no reason, which can be regarded as showing the world its emperor's ambition to dominate.

Mu Xuanche immediately ordered the civil and military officials to enter the palace to discuss.

At this moment, Ye Zichen was dealing with affairs in the study, while Mu Ranyue was sitting on the side painting, looking up at Ye Zichen's beautiful side face from time to time, only to feel that her heart was rippling, how do you say something? Men at work are the best-looking, and that seems to be true today.

And Ye Zichen also seemed to feel the admiration of the woman beside him, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up a smile.

The room is quiet and silent, filled with a warm atmosphere, and the time is quiet.

However, a small servant suddenly came in and broke the silence.

Ye Zichen frowned unhappily.
