Chapter 870: The Wicked Sue First
Everyone was taken aback by Bai Zhi's sudden change of words.
Nangong Qing's face sank, and he looked at Yu Chi Lianqing's calm and slightly angry appearance, and his eyes swept away and fell on Bai Zhi like electricity: "Talking upside down, one moment east and one moment west, and dare to wronged the master at will, this is a capital crime!" ”
"Good! actually poisoned Concubine Yao, the grandson of the mourning family......" The queen mother beat her chest anxiously, her face was anxious and angry, staring at Bai Zhi, and then she was furious: "If you don't recruit from the truth, the mourning family will definitely punish you!" ”
At this point, Bai Zhi was simply speechless, panicked like an ant on a hot pot.
"The slave, the slave didn't lie, it's really Concubine Lan'......"
"Shut up!"
Yu Chi Lianqing coldly interrupted Bai Zhi's defense, and said indifferently: "Just now, in front of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, you clearly said that the Queen Mother asked you to send pastries to Concubine Yao, and also said that the Queen Mother wanted to show her concern...... Did you say something like that? ”
"Slave maid ......" Bai Zhi was speechless.
"But now you deny it, saying that this palace asked you to send it, you are really fast! In front of His Majesty the Queen Mother, you can say whatever you want with this mouth, and you dare to bite the head of the palace, and if someone else comes, do you still want to bite other people? ”
"No, Concubine Lan, the slave doesn't have ......"
Bai Zhi kowtowed again and again in fright, regretting that she was not at the beginning, but it was too late.
With a pale face, Nangong Qing no longer had any patience, and shouted gloomily: "Come on, drag this down and torture her, and you must make sure she confesses who is the one who murdered Concubine Yao!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Sun Dafu hurriedly waved his hand, and immediately came in a few forbidden soldiers and dragged Bai Zhi, who begged for mercy and shouted for wrongs, down.
With a deep sigh, the Queen Mother looked gloomy, grieved in her heart, and returned to the Empty Ming Hall after a few words of relief from Long Ning. She really couldn't accept the news, even if she had already understood that Concubine Yao was born prematurely, she still couldn't accept it. This long-awaited grandson made her unhappy and was born prematurely in two days, and this blow was not as deep as one or two.
"Alas......" Nangong Qing also let out a long sigh.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he comforted Long Ning softly: "Don't be sad, Concubine Yao, you are still young, wait until you are well ...... the child will have in the future."
Long Ning didn't say a word, only tears flowed for a long time, and the whole person was stupid, and he didn't even look at Nangong Qing.
Nangong Qing only thought that she was heartbroken, although she was also sad, but when she thought that she was born prematurely in her first pregnancy, her heart still softened. Glancing at Concubine Lan, meaning to ask her to help persuade and comfort her, Nangong Qing got up and stood up and walked aside.
Yu Chi Lianqing came over knowingly, and asked softly: "Sister Yao, what's wrong, just say what you have to say." Your Majesty will promise you what you want to eat and use, but don't be so sad, it's not good for your body. ”
Although the two have their own ghosts, after all, they have been together for a while, how can they not understand what each other means? With just a few words and a look, Long Ning understood what Wei Chi Lianqing meant, which was exactly what she wanted.
"Since Your Majesty has no intention of the concubines, then what are you doing with the lives of the concubines?" Long Ning wiped away another handful of tears with grievances, sobbing and sobbing: "Your Majesty, let's go, don't worry about the concubines......"
"Concubine Yao, don't you want to be like this, how can I not care about you?"
"Then why did Your Majesty only punish the palace maid, but did not mention it to the queen mother?" Long Ning's eyes were cold, he stared at Nangong Qing, gritted his teeth and said: "Obviously, that palace maid is the queen's person, and she also said it herself, she sent pastries to the concubines because of the queen's order!" But His Majesty did not interrogate the queen, which is clearly a cover-up! ”
"The concubine understands, even if Your Majesty knows that it was the queen who harmed the concubine and the concubine who was born prematurely, Your Majesty will not blame the queen, right? Because she is the queen, and the concubine is just a concubine! ”
Long Ning's face turned cold, and he covered his face sadly and cried.
"Sister Yao! Sister Yao, don't be like this......"
After deliberately calling two sentences, Yu Chi Lianqing also turned her head to look at Nangong Qing, very disappointed: "The concubine has always thought that Your Majesty is equal to each of us, even if she is the queen, Your Majesty will care about the concubines and others and love us." But now, the concubine finally understands that the queen can be lawless and arbitrary, even if she kills Concubine Yao's child, she can not be punished in any way......"
"Enough, no more!"
Hearing this, Nangong Qing was restless, and finally made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Come on, immediately send someone to the Chu Palace, and let the queen return to the palace immediately to investigate this matter thoroughly!" ”
I wanted to send someone to ask Su Yi privately if she had done such a thing, but now it seems that unfair treatment is not good.
If Su Yi did this kind of thing because she was jealous of Concubine Yao, even if she was the queen, no matter how affectionate he was to her, he couldn't help her to be so presumptuous!
The holy decree soon arrived at the Chu Palace, but it was still silent, and no one dared to disrespect.
Sun Dafu, who announced the decree, stood in front of the hall, didn't even dare to read the holy decree, respectfully presented it to the queen Su Yi, and whispered: "Queen Mother, this is Your Majesty's will, please take a look at the Queen Mother." ”
He was so frightened that he had never been so careful with his decree.
The first to sit was Nalan Ye, his handsome face was indifferent, but it invisibly revealed a momentum that was not angry but mighty, which made Sun Dafu tremble and dare not be angry. Luo Qingluan, who was sitting on the lower head on the left, was drinking tea, and he didn't look at Sun Dafu, just chatting casually with Su Yi.
Seeing that Su Yi took over the bright yellow holy decree, Luo Qingluan asked casually intentionally or unintentionally: "The queen mother is having a good time with me, why does Your Majesty miss the queen so much that he even sent the holy decree to invite the mother back to the palace?" ”
She covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at this majesty, can't you leave Niangniang for a moment, it's only been a few days, and you miss Niangniang so much." ”
Sun Dafu was nervous when he heard it, and his mood was up and down.
Your Majesty doesn't miss Niangniang, it's Niangniang who has committed something and wants to be taken back by His Majesty for questioning and investigation, if it weren't for thinking that Niangniang is in the Chu Palace, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother would have sent someone to escort Niangniang back!
But where did Sun Dafu dare to say such a thing, he didn't know how to answer, so he could only laugh dryly.
Slowly unfolding the holy decree, even though Su Yi was mentally prepared, she still couldn't control her twitching.
Your Majesty, you really still doubt her!
Suspect that she caused Concubine Yao to give birth prematurely!
From knowing the news to now, it has only been half a day, if it weren't for Luo Qingluan's relief that she would be fine, Su Yi would have been flustered a long time ago. She held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that His Majesty would believe that she was innocent, and pretended to be calm and ignored the matter. But only two hours passed, and she actually waited for the holy decree!
"Your Majesty let me, let me go back to the palace."
Su Yi's face was ugly, and she reluctantly plucked up a smile and said to Luo Qingluan, "Anyway, I've been out of the palace for so many days, so I won't stay longer." Qingluan, I'm going back. ”
Luo Qingluan's eyes turned, staring coldly at Su Yi's disappointed and sad face, word by word: "Think about it, do you really want to go back?" ”
According to Su Yi's temper, he was afraid that he would be threatened by Long Ning after he went back, and he would be beaten upside down, and he would not be able to argue.
Biting her lower lip, why did Su Yi want to go back?
But if you don't go back, you can't do it!
The holy decree has been issued, does she still dare to disobey the order? She understood that if it weren't for the fact that she was in the Chu Palace, with the face of Nalan Ye and Luo Qingluan, she was afraid that this time it was not Sun Dafu who politely invited her, but the forbidden army came directly to take her back.
Standing up, Su Yi said with a wry smile: "There is such a big thing in the palace, how can I, as the queen, ignore it?" Besides, this matter has something to do with me, and I have to go back and make it clear. ”
"What if Your Majesty or Concubine Yao have to say that you did it?" Luo Qingluan stared at her and asked.
“……”
Do you have to wronged her? Hehe, if that's the case, she will admit it.
But she won't admit it!
She will only accept her fate, the man who used to miss her in her heart no longer belongs to her. When he has a new love, he forgets her old love, even if she is his queen. She was tired and didn't want to fight with other women anymore, she had already left the harem and didn't want to see those upsetting things, but those people still didn't let her go.
In this case, she should go back, whether His Majesty wants to give her death, or the Queen Mother wants to dislike her, or send her to the cold palace and suffer for the rest of her life, she does not want to compete for any more favors.
Boring!
With a hint of tiredness in his eyes, Su Yi said quietly: "If that's the case, then I'll die." However, I will not admit what I have not done, even if I die, I don't want to curry favor with people anymore and linger. ”
"Good!"
Luo Qingluan suddenly smiled and said briskly: "Su Yi, just have your words, don't worry, I'll accompany you back!" Whoever dares to wronged you, I want her to look good! Nangong Qing dares to forget his feelings, and you will dump him! ”
……
The dead Luoshui Palace, as if with a dull pressure, makes people breathless. Nangong Qing didn't say a word, he pondered calmly, and his face was very ugly. Long Ning and Yu Chi Lianqing whispered, comforting each other, but secretly exchanging glances.
Finally, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and Yuhu came in and said, "Your Majesty, the queen mother is here." ”
"Let her in!"
As soon as Nangong Qing's words were finished, Yuhu added with a sneering face: "Your Majesty, the princess of Chu and Chu are also here!" ”
"What, Princess Chu......" Nangong Qing was stunned.
Long Ning's eyelids jumped, and before he could speak, he saw Queen Su Yi and Luo Qingluan walking in side by side.
The two of them are almost the same height, the same peerless and beautiful face, one is bright and moving, generous and smiling, like a delicate begonia flower. A cold face, slightly away from the gaze, like a hollow valley orchid, difficult to find in the world.
From the moment Luo Qingluan and Su Yi came in, Long Ning's heart sank.
Luo Qingluan is actually here!
Suddenly, his face changed again and again, Long Ning secretly gritted his teeth, looked at Su Yi resentfully and sadly, and cried with red circles in his eyes: "Queen Mother, since the concubine entered the palace, she has always been respectful to her mother, and she dare not slack off, but why did the queen mother harm me like this?" ”
