Chapter 157: Surprised
"Concubine Wen is right, but you don't want to get in the way of me, and I don't bother to care about you. After a pause, she added: "We are now in the same poison, and at this point, I and Yu Guifei have discussed some experiences, and it doesn't hurt to talk to you." Then Chu Lianruo naturally revealed the topic that was almost a little depressed just now.
Both of them knew each other, and they both knew that they had come to this palace for another purpose, but as long as it didn't get in their way, they pretended not to know anything about each other.
Chu Lianruo told Shangguan Wenci all the previous conjectures, Shangguan Wenci obviously didn't know much about the intertwined forces in the palace, so although he was smart, he was also easy to fall into misunderstandings, and now after Chu Lianruo said it, he suddenly realized.
"Who are the daughters of ministers in this palace who can speak in the court now?" Shangguan Wenci asked with a star.
Since discussing with Xu Yang, she wanted to ask his opinion, but before she could say it, she was disturbed by these people, and now after hearing Shangguan Wenci ask herself, she was also dissatisfied and helpless.
"I've only been in the palace for a year, how much do you think I can know?" If Chu Lian shirked the words, she shouldn't have known so much, in less than a year, if she suddenly figured out the power of the entire court, wouldn't she tell Shangguan Wenci that she had power in the court? And isn't it small?
Shangguan Wenci obviously didn't expect Chu Lianruo to say that she didn't know, she looked at Chu Lianruo, but unfortunately Chu Lianruo's eyes didn't show the slightest flaw, so she let Shangguan Wenci's gaze linger on her.
When she finally withdrew her gaze, Chu Lianruo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Fang Liang, there was no one there, but Chu Lianruo didn't know, she just subconsciously wanted to get comfort from Xu Yang.
"Concubine Xi, what's so beautiful about this beam?" Shangguan Wenci actually noticed Chu Lianruo's movements, and then raised her head, she had never seen Chu Lianruo in a daze, so she subconsciously thought that there must be a thousand autumns on this beam, but she didn't know that it was just empty.
Chu Lianruo saw Shangguan Wenci looking up with her gaze, she was stunned in her heart, afraid that Xu Yang would be exposed, and just wanted to speak, she saw a puzzled look in her eyes, and then she was a little relieved.
If Xu Yang can be discovered by her, then it is not Xu Yang, but where is he in this room now? Now Concubine Wen is simply in her house...... Just like that night, which disrupted Xu Yang's meeting with her, she almost thought in her heart, this Concubine Wen did it on purpose, right?
"There's nothing beautiful on this beam, but the beautiful thing is the sky outside the glazed tiles." Chu Lianruo pretended to be profound, this was also the place she had wanted to see countless days and nights when she was Qin Zhaoxi.
"As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, does Concubine Xi regret it?" Shangguan Wenci heard Chu Lianruo say this, and the trace of doubt in his heart completely dissipated with the wind in an instant.
"It's not regretful, it's just that sometimes, I think like this." Chu Lianruo shook her head, she would not regret every step she made in this life. The words were firm, Shangguan Wenci turned his eyes away, and also looked towards the roof, there was once a person who allowed her to look at the sky with glazed tiles in this life, but now she locked the palace door and ......
"Hey." Shangguan Wenci sighed, Chu Lianruo's heart moved, but she didn't look over, as if she knew that this person would not be willing to let people see the face on her face at this moment, intuitively, she thought so. "Concubine Xi, sometimes I envy you."
Not wanting Shangguan Wenci to say such a thing, she asked suspiciously, "Why?" ”
Shangguan Wenci shook her head, she didn't tell Chu Lianruo, what was she envious? It wasn't until later that Chu Lianruo understood the deep meaning contained in this sentence of envy. She picked up the topic again, "Let's talk about it, this is a pity for people, right?" ”
"I don't know her, and I haven't heard of her among the people in the palace." Chu Lianruo was not entangled in Shangguan Wenci's words. "Perhaps, tomorrow we can send someone to invite Concubine Yu to come and continue."
"This is a good method, Concubine Yu has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and she should not only know about this person who cherishes her promise, but also have an idea about what is the daughter of the courtier." Shangguan Wenci also felt that this method was very good when she heard it, she was a smart person, and naturally knew that such a thing had happened, and Concubine Yu either avoided it and completely avoided this matter, or she took the initiative to find the culprit with them.
It is impossible to avoid it, after all, you don't look for trouble, but your own trouble will find you, the ancients often said, there is nothing wrong with the tree to attract the wind. Shi Yuyin is not only a big tree, but also an enduring old tree, some years, ups and downs, but still occupies the biggest position in the palace, how can it not attract jealousy.
"But there's one more thing I can't figure out?" Shangguan Wenci pondered for a while and said.
"Tell me about it." Don't say that it is Shangguan Wenci, even if Chu Lian also has something that she can't figure out, I don't know if what the two of them think is the same place?
"Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence? Who would have thought that an assassin would go to the Shufei Palace, and how could he have thought that he would alarm the palace guards, and then the emperor would come to your Xiyan Palace, and this secretly hidden poisoner would appear in the second team of the Janissaries? This point is not bad with Xiao Feng's suspicions, including Chu Lianruo's thoughts.
There was no answer for a long time.
Suddenly, the wind was roaring, and the mountain rain was about to come, and the wind was full of buildings.
The day had changed, there was still a starry night sky, dark clouds, the west wind blew the windows rattling, and in a short time the rain was beating on the windows.
The two of them looked out of the window at the same time, and there was a faint shadow of a tree outside the house cast on the window by the light of the red candle.
At this moment, Chu Lianruo held her chest and suddenly spoke, "Maybe we all think too complicated." ”
"How?" Shangguan Wenci pulled the quilt on the soft couch and was pulled back into focus.
The raindrops were crisp, and the music was played on the glazed tiles, but at this moment, they could no longer disturb the two hearts that had become firm again, this Shangguan Wenci and Chu Lianruo were actually similar in their bones, and they would rather be cruel to themselves for one purpose.
"If you think about it, maybe this person has already placed people in every team of the Praetorian Guard, and has already given such an order, whether the assassins of that night are their people or not, it is an opportunity, if it is, the people behind it will have one less risk, if not, they will have one more risk."
"Then why, you and I were the only ones?"
"Or the people behind it want to wipe out the four of us, it's not necessarily, it's just that Concubine Shu has been seriously injured, and she was immediately protected, it's not easy to implement, and the people left from the Concubine Palace, they have no reason to wander in the palace, that night Liuli Palace, Xiyan Palace, and Yuhua Palace all entered the Praetorian Guard, maybe there was really such a coincidence, and there happened to be no one in the Praetorian Guard who entered the Yuhua Palace to search?"
This can also make sense, the words of each team are indeed a bit exaggerated, after all, there are thirteen detachments of the Praetorian Guard, and the first team led by the real commander went to Yuhua Palace to search, and she heard that this leader team was in the hands of the old emperor when she was Qin Zhaoxi, but it was the most unlikely to be placed in the characters, and it was said that it would never be replaced unless it was born, old, sick and died.
But she can't tell Shangguan Wenci about these things, just as soon as she explains this, everything will be solved, there is no coincidence, everything is just a human arrangement, it's just an opportunity for Concubine Shu's matter, sooner or later.
Among the few of them, no matter who was the bait of the assassin's assassination, it was actually impossible to survive, but Xu Yang went to test Concubine Shu on a whim, which is good, the plan was disrupted, and Concubine Shu was only seriously injured.
There is no one in the glazed hall, Yuhua Palace is going to the leader's team, and a Chu Lianruo in Xiyan Palace can't make too many waves, but the heavens are still biased towards the people behind them, and Shangguan Wenci and Chu Lianruo stay together.
Yu Guifei can be framed later, which is not a difficult matter.
But they didn't want to, but now they and Shi Yuyin are twisted into a rope.
The people behind this should not have imagined that Xu Yang would be secretly looking for an antidote behind his back, and there was a little-known but well-known Fengqing Embroidery Cloud Pavilion Pavilion Master outside the palace.
"It's not bad for you to say that, but it's useless for us to discuss here now, so we have to find an opportunity to talk to the emperor about this matter." Shangguan Wenci listened to Chu Lianruo's analysis and agreed very much in his heart, it should be like this.
"Don't worry about this for the time being, the prince of the wind should come over tomorrow, and I will listen to him when the time comes." If Chu Lian knew that Xiao Feng was the main person in the investigation, she would naturally come to ask her as a person, and it was not enough to find the concubine behind this, the scum in the Praetorian Guard would also have to be found out, at least she could hold a trump card when she overthrew Xu Rong in the end.
"Feng Shizi seems to be a little different to you!" Shangguan Wenci said conclusively.
Chu Lianruo's eyebrows frowned slightly, "What does Concubine Wen mean by this?" ”
"It's not interesting, I just think that Feng Shizi still respects you a lot."
"I'm Concubine Xi, you're Concubine Wen, you don't believe that tomorrow will take a look, treat you and me with the same respect." Chu Lianruo was too lazy to distinguish Xiao Feng's attitude with Shangguan Wenci. And it can't be distinguished.
This night is extraordinarily enchanting, the rain baptizes the earth, baptizes the filth inside and outside the palace.
In the imperial study, Shangguan Wenci's elder brother, who had been silent since he was taken away, was still spread out in the center of the imperial study.
"Shangguan Wenjing, if you want your sister to stay in the palace safely, then do what Gu explained to you with peace of mind." Xu Rong stood behind the table and did not sit on the dragon pattern chair.
His eyes were fierce, as if he was very dissatisfied with the sudden appearance of the man, but for some reason he couldn't kill the killer.
The man below didn't answer, still in the same position, if it weren't for the even breathing and the occasional spill of injured breath that would almost make one think he had lost his life.
'Bang, pop' sounded, Xu Rong slapped his palm on the table, the burning candles jumped three times, the tea cup was shaken, and the friction between the lid and the body of the cup made a piercing sound, which made Gonggong Li, who was waiting outside the house, feel tight.
Then, he heard Xu Rong's angry voice, "Shangguan Wenjing, Gu is talking to you, did you hear it?" ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen has never been deaf, but you also said that you would let Wen Ci stay in the palace well, but the day she returned three years later was only a month away, since she was hit on the seventh day, do you think I can do what you arranged with peace of mind?" Three years later, he was able to return to Beijing.
This time, he didn't report to Xu Rong, after all, it was the original promise, and he didn't dare to guarantee that Xu Rong would remember, or that he would be allowed to return to Beijing after passing on the secret letter, so he deliberately came back on his own.
It was precisely because of this time that he overheard the entire capital talking about the matter of finding seven days in the emperor's list, and he also had some people in the court, even if the news was blocked by Xu Rong, it was still undeniably secretly spread.
At this time, he knew that his beloved sister had been poisoned, and what Xu Rong promised three years ago was simply a goose without a trace.
"Shangguan Wenjing, you are so bold, don't think that what you are doing now has to be yours, Lone can replace you at any time." Xu Rong was extremely dissatisfied with Shangguan Wenjing's half-threatening words, and said through gritted teeth.
"Then the emperor will replace Weichen, whether it is a prison or a dungeon, my sister doesn't recognize me anyway, this matter is really thanks to the emperor to let her treat me like this now, and I can't wait for these two places." Shangguan Wenjing looked like a broken jar.
"Hmph." Xu Rong snorted coldly, "If you want to go, you will be alone." He flicked his sleeves fiercely, "Someone." ”
A guard pushed the door open and said, "Drag him to the dungeon." ”
Shangguan Wenjing didn't resist, like a puppet, let the guards bring him into the rain curtain, the door of the house was not closed, Xu Rong looked at the body that was getting farther and farther away in the rain curtain, he had arranged this chess piece for so long, naturally he would not let him break it so inexplicably.
"Father-in-law Li."
"The old slave is here."
"Go to the dungeon and say that this man is not to be tortured, and after seven days wait for Lone's order." Speaking of which, this person is addicted to sisters, if he is allowed to stay honestly for seven days, I am afraid it is impossible, so it is better to detain him.
Although Gonggong Li was surprised in his heart, he had no choice but to go on this trip with hard work, not only that, but he also had to bring a imperial doctor to this Shangguan Wenjing, he had found out before that this person had a smell of blood, and he was unloaded by Lin Su when he was in Xiyan Palace, he guessed that the person Xu Rong valued should not be so useless, and it was intentional.
At this moment, braving the heavy rain, a figure came running, and collided with Gonggong Li, who was about to leave.
"Hey, hey." Gonggong Li and the man both slid to, "What is this that scares away on a rainy day that doesn't have long eyes?" After all, he is a celebrity around Xu Rong, and no one dares to yell at him on weekdays, let alone knock him to the bottom.
The umbrella had been knocked off, and the rushing rain blurred Grandpa Li's vision, and he only saw someone who seemed to be from the Tai Hospital.
Yes, someone happened to come, and when I thought about it, I grabbed the hand of the person who came, and you dragged me to stand up together, "Hey, isn't this Imperial Doctor Chu?" ”
After Gonggong Li stood up, he saw that this person was Chu Jingxuan, and he didn't dare to drag him to the dungeon, after all, Chu Jingxuan came to find Xu Rong at this point, it must be the one in Xiyan Palace who had something wrong, and he didn't dare to delay if he was given a hundred dares.
"Imperial Doctor Chu, what's wrong with you being in such a hurry?"
Chu Jingxuan didn't answer Gonggong Li's words, but just made a slight gesture and ran away.
Gonggong Li looked at this posture, and his heart trembled, don't be the two in Xiyan Palace, what happened to the two in Xiyan Palace, it is really complicated to say that things in this palace are really complicated, but it is only two or three days of hard work, there are so many things on this Xifei concubine, should it be said that Xifei is jealous, or is it really a red face?
But come to think of it, Hongyan may not be thin, so many things have happened these days, starting from the changes in the palace, Chu Lian will be safe and sound, and then it will be the matter of chronic poison, but it is still found in time, if these Chu Lian survived, I can't say that this poisoning can also be resolved safely.
After standing for a while, thinking wildly, he hurried towards the dungeon, not too late, some people who have nothing to do should be lynched.
"Your Majesty." Chu Jingxuan shook off the rain and knelt on the ground.
Xu Rong's body that had just sat on the golden chair moved, "What happened?" His question was not urgent, but his tone was quite bad.
"Not only is there no seven-day grass in the palace today, but even the other flavors of medicine that relieve seven-day red are gone!" After Chu Jingxuan finished speaking, he knelt on the ground without daring to breathe.
Today, he thought that maybe Xu Yang would find the Seven Day Grass, so he planned to collect a few other herbs first, but the medicine he usually grabbed turned out to be empty.
Although Xiao Feng and Xu Yang got the news in the light wind, they felt that it was better not to say such a thing, and wanted to let the palace find out on their own, but it was Chu Jingxuan who didn't want to find out first.
"Say it again." Xu Rong got up and finished almost word by word.
Chu Jingxuan complained bitterly in his heart, the people behind this were too ruthless, and they actually destroyed the six flavor medicines to the brink, what kind of ability is this.
Could Chu Lianruo really be in danger? Can Xu Yang find the antidote on time? There were too many doubts weighing on his heart, and he was tired.
"Back to the emperor, now all the antidotes in the prescription that can unravel the seven days of red are gone, please order the emperor to collect them in the whole city." After Chu Jingxuan finished speaking slowly and clearly, he lowered his eyes, he didn't know what Xu Rong would do when he was angry, but he had to come and report.
"Is this a place where everyone can do something now?" Xu Rong was almost furious, "Lone ordered you to imprison all the old doctors in the Tai Hospital, and you are not allowed to go out of the Tai Hospital without Lone's permission." ”
Unexpectedly, Xu Rong was still sensible, knowing that if he did something irreparable in anger, he would make waves again in the former harem that had finally settled down.
Chu Jingxuan didn't expect Xu Rong to trust him at all, probably because he was young, and he was loyal when Die Guifei rebelled, and he didn't have anything to do with anyone, so it's okay, imprison those people, maybe there will be an unexpected gain.
He hadn't forgotten that the extra deadly herbs in Chu Lianruo's medicine cup, maybe he could take this opportunity to find clues to this matter.
I have to say that Chu Jingxuan's thoughts coincide with Chu Lianruo's thoughts on pulling down those imperial doctors who had assassinated her.
Later, when Xu Yang's message came, he had already found some clues, and he was thinking about what kind of method to trip them, with Xu Yang's method of transmitting the message, it was very simple for them to pull down the imperial doctor.
Of course, everything is still in the process of brewing and planning, tonight is not a peaceful night, the rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, Chu Jingxuan led the palace guards to directly guard the rooms of the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital, including Imperial Doctor Lin, after all, Xu Rong said everything, the play must be done, and the horse's feet cannot be exposed.
At the same time, in Yuhua Palace, there was another person who was tortured by Shi Yuyin.
Since the pothos was taken away from Xiyan Palace by Shi Yuyin, her face has been like ashes.
At this time, in a dark secret room, the green pothos was lying on the ground, and Qin Sang was standing beside Shi Yuyin, his eyes were dark and uncertain.
"Green pothos, if you die with the Waste Queen, maybe you have been reincarnated as a good person today, and you don't have to suffer from me here!" Shi Yuyin's face was like a flower.
The pothos gasped, there were no scars on her body, but she was abused a lot, there are not a few methods of secret abuse in the palace, Shi Yuyin, as one of the leaders, has naturally used a lot.
When Shi Yuyin mentioned Qin Zhaoxi, a disdainful light flashed in her eyes, and it was fleeting, even Shi Yuyin, whose eyes always fell on her, did not notice it.
Then, I saw her eyes half-open, and said weakly, "Concubine Yu, if you treat me like this now, the Queen Mother will definitely punish you if she knows it." ”
"Really? I'm so afraid, the Queen Mother really loves you, but you are just a person who is used to serving people, and now the Queen Mother is still there, and the old lady is also there, you are just a dispensable person, really think you are a treasure? Shi Yuyin's eyes were hideous, she couldn't see the pothos seducing Xu Rong earlier.
Now, this opportunity was sent to the door by the pothos himself.
The color of the green pothos eyes changed slightly, she knew that Shi Yuyin was right, even if she was killed by her today, this Shi Yuyin was just reprimanded by the Queen Mother, and she couldn't punish a jade concubine because of a little concubine.
