"Do you know why this palace brought you to the Eternal Longevity Palace at this time?" Ruyue was draped in a thick silk robe, leaning comfortably on the half-reclining Luan Feng chair, and asked with her eyes closed. The only faint fragrance of daffodils can be smelled indoors, which is faint and forgettable. It seems to be in a peaceful quiet year, without the slightest restlessness.

Concubine An knelt asidely indifferently, but compared with Concubine Ru, she had a completely different experience. There are cushions under my knees that separate the stiff floor tiles, but I still feel a slight stiff pain. She didn't dare to move, nor did she dare to raise her head, for fear that a slight action against herself would cause resentment like a concubine and cause trouble for nothing.

Qin'er and Pei Shuang were both by Ruyue's side, their heads calm, and there was no sound. In addition to the internal staff, the internal servants and rough maids also performed their duties and stood on the porch to wait. But there was not a single sound, as if there was no one in the void.

Such a night is very quiet, but also very eerie. It's so quiet that there is no movement, but it is strange that you can't see any thoughts of others. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean you don't have it. Ruyue sighed slowly, and it took a long time before she said: "Qin'er, go and help Concubine An up, I must be frightened when I was brought in." At this moment, she knelt down for a while, and Bengong was really afraid of hurting her knees! ”

An Concubine bowed to the ground again and again, and said mournfully: "The concubine doesn't dare, beg the mother for forgiveness." ”

"What sin do you have that need to be forgiven by this palace?" Ruyue asked calmly, the pain in her heart was very well concealed. If this An Concubine not only wanted to conspire with Liu Mianmian to suppress the Li nobles, but also participated in the death of the Jade Concubine, it would be impossible for her to leave the Yongshou Palace alive tonight.

In the past, the heart of forgiveness continued to bring disasters to himself and the people around him, but in the future, he will no longer be.

"The idea of framing the noble Li was conceived by the concubine and Liu Mianmian." An Concubine didn't dare to hide it anymore, and she was deeply afraid in her heart. But at that time, the concubine just wanted Liguiren to make mistakes and anger Shengyan, so as to lose the opportunity to accompany the emperor on the tour. After all, Liu Mianmian and I both know each other, such as the noble concubine, the favorite candidate in your heart is the noble person. ”

Speaking of this, Concubine An had already burst into tears: "But where could the concubine have imagined that this Liu Mianmian is so ruthless, she actually used the life of the jade concubine to frame her sister." I thought that while the Liu sisters were infighting, the concubines would be able to get closer to the emperor. In front of you, the concubine didn't dare not say what was in her heart.

But who would have thought that Liu Mianmian would be so vicious, and the death of the Jade Concubine Niangniang really frightened the concubines. Jasmine only thinks that she can have the glorious days in the past and become a person in the eyes of the emperor again, that's all. How dare you risk death to do such a rebellious thing, do you not know the consequences? If you are a concubine, you must believe in the concubine! ”

Ruyue opened her eyes, and the soft light in the room didn't feel very shaky. His gaze fell softly on An Concubine's face, and he pondered for a moment before saying, "Do you think this palace doesn't know your mind?" You are not convinced, and the matter of the nobleman's slippery tire in the spring of that year has affected you for no reason, causing you to fall to the bottom from the most beautiful time. But Jasmine, you also have to think about it, if you hadn't been in trouble at that time, would you have survived until now? ”

An Concubine was stunned all of a sudden, she had always had only unwillingness, only hatred, and only humiliation in her heart. But she never thought that if she hadn't experienced this, what kind of encounter would she have to endure today's life.

Not to mention the others, can the queen allow her to spend all these times happily? She never dared to forget how she betrayed the identity that the queen has today. Presumably, the queen is even more unforgettable than her.

Purssing her lips, Concubine An still nodded: "Maybe the concubine is already dead." Where can I rob the emperor of a little attention and a little mercy. ”

"If you know, it's good." Ruyue's tone did not have the temperature of Fang Cai, but was blunt: "But Bengong really regrets it." If you die in the cold palace early in the morning, you won't have all kinds of troubles today, and you can save a lot of planning and effort in this palace. ”

"Guifei Niangniang...... "Concubine An didn't know whether to beg her to spare her life or ask for a happy death. As soon as he spoke, the words were choked here.

"You don't have to talk anymore. The main palace has already seen it clearly. Standing up with Peishuang's hands, Ruyue slowly approached An Concubine's side. The queen must not allow you to live any longer, because she thinks that you have deliberately fulfilled the noble people to go on patrol. Or maybe your own mind is too shallow, and the queen will be afraid that the matter of the jade concubine will provoke the palace to think that she also has a share.

When a catastrophe comes, of course, it is self-preservation. Even if you want this palace to spare you today, it will be in vain. The queen wants you dead...... You know her methods, don't you? ”

"Niangniang...... "Concubine An really doesn't know what it's like, her heart is full of stuffed things, and she only chokes her very nauseated." The concubine has been with the queen for so many years, can't she still see through her thoughts? But the concubine is really unwilling to die like this. Since Niangniang has repeatedly forgiven the concubines a little time, I beg Niangniang to give the concubines another chance and point out a way to live. ”

"Phew!" Pei Shuang only felt disgusted: "Concubine An's calculation is extremely good. When the queen lifted you, you had the same heart with the queen, and now the queen can't tolerate you, and you come to beg our concubine again. When the food in this Yongshou Palace is delicious, everyone wants to stretch out their chopsticks! What's more, since you know the mind of the concubine, why do you want to gang up with that willow Mianmian? Act recklessly! ”

An Concubine listened silently, not knowing what to say. Pei Shuang's words were like a knife stabbed in the heart. Even if she didn't participate in the murder of Concubine Yu, she was the queen's person from beginning to end. There has never been a trace of goodness for Ru Guifei, only hatred, resentment, and resistance to death. Why is life at stake, when life and death are on the line, come to beg the concubine for mercy with a shy face?

"My aunt is right, the concubine really shouldn't come to beg the mother......"

Pei Shuang wanted to continue, but Ruyue stopped her. "That's enough, let's go and help Concubine An up."

"Yes, miss." Pei Shuang nodded slightly, hiding the disgust in her heart, although she didn't like An Concubine, she also knew that it was inevitable to do so. If you want to take her life, why bring people into the Eternal Life Palace. "Concubine An, get up."

Concubine An stood up along Peishuang's hands, and couldn't stop the trembling of her legs: "Niangniang......"

Ruyue didn't speak for a long time, but in fact, it didn't matter whether she left An Concubine or not. After all, the emperor's deep meaning of letting Sister Yushu be buried as a concubine is already clear to him. Besides, my sister must also like this arrangement. Therefore, it is already possible to find out the murderer of the Jade Concubine, and there is no need to rehabilitate or let the emperor be buried as a concubine.

It's just that now it is Liu Mianmian who is accompanying the emperor and not a noble person, but An Concubine doesn't seem to know this, so An Concubine may not be able to debunk Liu's tricks.

When he was hesitating, he suddenly heard Le Xi'er gently knock on the door. Qin'er hurriedly walked over and asked what Concubine Ru meant, and when she got the promise, she called Le Xi'er in.

"Master, a word has just come out from the cold palace, saying that the one inside is alive for ...... Starved to death. Le Xi'er's voice was not heavy, nor was it light, but in the end, she felt sorry, she didn't understand why Li Guiren was so stupid. Obviously, the concubine is already very gracious, but she still has to die for a bad sister who framed her in every way.

An Concubine couldn't help but tremble: "Liu Mianmian starved to death? I don't know why she always feels a little incredible: "How can a woman as high as her heart die so willingly?" Mother, this is too strange. The concubine always felt that it would not be so simple. ”

Qin'er handed the color to Le Xi'er: "Just do what you have to do, such a small matter, you really don't need to worry about it." ”

"It's a heart." Pei Shuang muttered.

Ruyue sneered, and said to Concubine Shang'an's bright eyes: "People are sometimes strange here, they think they are tough, but they easily succumb." He is humble, but he can endure the torment of body and mind and survive. You are the latter, but the one in the cold palace is the former. It's not a big deal. ”

"That's exactly what Niang Niang said." Concubine An smiled bitterly: "Maybe there is still hope for not dying, but if you die, you don't even have to suffer the current suffering." It's just a matter of destiny, after all, it's your own mind, and others can't force it. ”

"Let's go, the palace is also tired." Ruyue motioned to Pei Shuang to send Concubine An out and let her go back to the palace by herself.

But instead of leaving, Concubine An knelt in front of Ruyue again: "Concubine Niangniang, the queen Niangniang went to see the noble lady today." With the concubine's understanding of the queen, it will inevitably set off another uproar. At present, you and Mei Guiren are pregnant, if there is anything wrong with Mei Guiren at this time, you will be the most suspicious. You need to prevent it sooner. ”

Ruyue didn't speak, but the soft light reflected on her face, as if she could see a thin coolness.

"The concubine knows that the slave who betrays the master and seeks glory is the most untrustworthy. Niangniang, you don't trust your concubines, and it's understandable. Concubine An made a big gift of throwing herself to the ground, but there were no tears: "Thinking about it this way, in fact, life and death are already doomed, I just ask Niangniang to remember that the concubine has been in the palace for so many years, and let go of the concubine's family." That's enough. ”

"Concubine An thinks too much." Ruyue smiled indifferently, without joy or sorrow: "This palace is really tired, and I may not have the experience to take care of the things next to me." If you can survive, you can live well, but if you can't, this palace will save you once, but it won't save you for a lifetime. Or in your own words, after all, it's your own mind! ”

In a trance, Concubine An seemed to finally understand Concubine Ru's thoughts, and her tossing heart gradually smiled. "Niangniang is virtuous, the concubine has nothing to repay, and she will live up to your hard work." After saying that, An Concubine kowtowed three times heavily, and finally left Yongshou Palace.
