Chapter 381: Exploitation (1)

The old princess got up abruptly and said hurriedly: "How is it possible, I heard that the regent attaches great importance to you, and now that you are trapped in the palace, it is impossible for him not to leave you a way out——"

As soon as these words came out, she was also shocked to realize that she had lost her manners, so she coughed and sat back down.

He Xi still lowered his eyebrows, stared at the tips of his shoes, and said softly: "Xihe doesn't understand these rights disputes, and he doesn't know what arrangements the prince has, as for the old princess, the queen mother wants to get rid of the regent, even if it's true, Xihe can't do anything-"

The old princess suddenly laughed twice, in such a deep night, it seemed abrupt and weird, she smiled: "Okay, a very good Mu Xihe, the regent is very affectionate to you, but you are so cold-hearted, I have seen what is the most poisonous woman's heart today——"

He Xi looked at the old princess, not caring about her judgment of herself at all, but said puzzledly: "The concubine has already chosen Prince Kang as her son-in-law for the county lord, even so, how can it still be like the old princess and want to get rid of Prince Kang's mansion?" ”

The old princess sneered and looked at her and said, "Is marriage glorious?" Jiang Li'er, that kid is just a chess piece—"

He Xihu had a plan, maybe she wanted to get close to Jiang Li'er, and the woman in front of her could help her-

Thinking like this, she leaned down and said, "Maybe someone can help us—"

The old princess Xu was shocked by He Xi's changes before and after, and she wondered, "What do you mean by this?" Fang Cai was still powerless, and planned to withdraw from the matter, and at this time he looked like he was the same enemy——"

He Xi smiled, not hiding the calculation and sparkle in her eyes, she said: "The concubine is indeed no one to rely on in this Xiliang Palace, and you are the old princess, but there is one person who is not-"

There was bewitchment in her voice, and the old princess said in disbelief: "You are the county lord?" ”

He Xi nodded and said, "The county lord has grown up in the palace, and no one is more familiar with everything in this palace than her, as long as we can serve the county lord, we are sure that we can save ourselves." ”

The old princess is still skeptical of her words, after all, He Xi's performance just now made her really think that she wanted to leave it alone, she stared at He Xi's expression with heavy eyes, not wanting to miss any clues, what is true and what is false?

She couldn't tell the difference, such a realization made her back can't help but feel a cold sweat.

The frustration of not being able to grasp the direction of things almost made her lose her mind.

After a while, she heard her own voice say, "How to persuade her?" ”

He Xi hooked her lips and smiled, the cinnabar mole between her eyebrows was red like a bead of blood in the candlelight, and she said: "As long as the old princess can find a way to let me meet the county lord, I will naturally handle the rest of the matter——"

The old princess still didn't believe it, and said, "Is it as simple as just seeing it?" You know, that kid is really good, she's—"

He Xi put her index finger to her lips, made a silent movement, and then said in a low voice: "What will happen if a person finds out that the person she trusts and loves the most is actually using her to achieve her own goals?" ”

The old princess had a clear smile on the corner of her mouth, and said, "Naturally, she will be disappointed, even resentful, and even revenge-"

He Xi bowed, and the old princess said: "Okay, I'll do this thing, but I may not give you much time, you should prepare well." ”

At this time, Jiang An said outside: "Old princess, Sister Mu, Your Majesty sent someone to ask, are the two of you frightened?" Do you need to send an imperial doctor to ask for peace in the pulse? ”

The old princess said: "We are all fine, but the fire is extinguished?" ”

Jiang An said respectfully: "Back to the old princess, the fire has been extinguished, but Sister Mu's side hall has been burned down for most of it, Your Majesty, let Sister Mu move to Hanyue Tower to live, when the Buddhist hall is repaired, and then move back."

The two of them are not very familiar with the Xiliang Palace, and they don't think there is anything wrong with this Hanyue Tower, but it is Yikun Palace, after the Queen Mother of the West knew about it, she was angry and said: "But Your Majesty personally?" ”

Zi Ke and Xing'er stood on both sides of the left and right, Xing'er was quiet and less desired, Zi Ke had also restrained a lot since the lesson of the last time, and just said in a deep voice: "Yes, when Niang Niang sent the slave maid to see the situation, she was bumping into the inner servants around His Majesty and all the people in the side hall went to Hanyue Tower." ”

Empress Dowager Xi frowned and said: "Originally, I arranged her in the side hall, thinking of putting her under our noses, but now it's okay, this Hanyue Tower is so far away from Yikun Palace, one east and one west, what does Hong'er think?" ”

Zike persuaded: "Xu felt that the Queen Mother needed to recuperate, so she moved to Hanyue Tower." ”

Empress Dowager Xi asked a little puzzled: "Zike, you, are Hong'er perfunctory?" He didn't want to get rid of the regent? ”

Zike frowned slightly, she couldn't figure it out, there were so many idle palaces in this harem, how could His Majesty choose Hanyue Tower for that Sister Mu to live in, but after thinking about it, she felt that if Your Majesty had the heart to protect the regent, he could leave the regent in the capital for any reason.

Thinking of this, she whispered: "Your Majesty should be distressed that the Queen Mother is sick, and you have to take care of the Buddha worship for her, and besides, if you really don't want to get rid of the regent, why does Your Majesty agree to the marriage between you and Prince Kang's Mansion?" ”

Since the marriage, the Queen Mother Xi felt a burst of stuffiness in her heart, she took a deep breath, and said, "How is Li'er doing lately?" ”

Zike shook his head and said, "The county lord still wants to see His Majesty and you, and refuses to calm down, and the slave maid has brought out the food that has been sent in recently." ”

The Empress Dowager Xi was distressed and annoyed in her heart, she slapped the edge of the bed under her fiercely, and said with hatred: "Is she trying to be angry and mourn her family?" The mourning family has raised her for so many years, and this is how she repays the mourning family? The mourners are really—really—"

Her heart suddenly stagnated, her blood and qi surged, and she couldn't breathe, Zi Ke hurriedly said to Xing'er: "Quick, pour a cup of tea-"

Xing'er was quick with her hands and feet, and handed over a cup of tea at the right time, and the Empress Dowager Xi drank some of this Zike's hand, but the symptoms were not alleviated, Zike was a little panicked, and wanted to go out to call the imperial doctor, but was stopped by Xing'er.

Xing'er just shook her head slightly, Zi Ke stopped suddenly, there was some struggle and hesitation in her eyes, but it was only for a while, Xing'er had already taken out the slack cloth bag from her arms, and then quickly dropped the needle in several big points on the Empress Dowager Xi's body, and then slowly twisted her index finger and thumb, advancing little by little.

Empress Dowager Xi only felt that there was a crispy tingling sensation in the place where she was pricked by the needle, but after a while, all those feelings dissipated, and instead of a coolness, from various acupuncture points, poured to the meridian Zheng

She took a deep breath and finally calmed down, Zi Ke hurriedly smiled: "Great, Miss Xing'er is really amazing-"

The Queen Mother of the West also looked like she had survived the catastrophe, and Xing'er said: "Although the Queen Mother's symptoms have improved now, all the causes are from the back injury, the meridians are blocked, and the breath is unstable.

The Empress Dowager Xi bowed slightly, which was regarded as a promise, Zike kept wiping the sweat on her forehead for the Empress Dowager Xi, and it took a stick of incense before Xing'er pulled out the silver needle from the body of the Empress Dowager Xi, but the Empress Dowager Xi did not see the purple-black blood stains stained on each silver needle.

Zike just glanced at it, then turned his face away, and said, "How does Niangniang feel?" ”

The Empress Dowager Xi looked a little tired, but she also reluctantly lifted her spirits and said: "It's much better, by the way, you have been more concerned about the mourning family during this time, if there is any situation, you will immediately go back and forth to the mourning family, and you can't let her have an accident before the matter is completed——"

The lower her voice became, and before the words fell, she fell asleep.

Zike half-supported the Empress Dowager Xi and called tentatively: "Niangniang? The Queen Mother? ”

However, the Empress Dowager Xi seemed to be asleep and breathed evenly.

Xing'er put the silver needle under the candle flame and looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It's useless, it's collapsing now, and she doesn't know it-"

Zi Ke relieved her heart at this time, she frowned and looked at Xing'er and said, "You are too reckless, if you are discovered, you and the old princess are in danger in the palace, do you know?" ”

Xing'er changed her humble and silent appearance in the past, she glanced at Zike lightly, and sneered: "Do I still want Aunt Zike to tell me what is the most suitable time?" Aunt Zike has been in this palace for decades, and she almost broke something, and in the end, she almost lost her life to regain her trust, what about next time? Do you repeat the old trick? ”

How could Zike not hear the mockery in her words?

Her face was pale, unwilling to be taught a lesson by a stinky girl at her age, she slammed the tea cup in her hand on the table, and said angrily: "If I hadn't spoken in front of her many times, do you really think that this marriage can be so logical?" ”

Seeing Xing'er's arrogant look of reluctance to take care of herself, she became more and more annoyed in her heart, so she coughed lightly and said, "What kind of medicine is on your silver needle?" ”

Xing'er wiped every needle clean, and then said faintly: "The juice extracted from the hook grass, just a little, can paralyze the nerves, if you add a little more, it will be difficult to breathe——"

Zike suddenly understood that the Empress Dowager Xi was poisonous, and Xing'er was indeed detoxifying.

She couldn't help but mutter, "When did you—the Imperial Doctor had come to check the pulse two times ago—"

Xing'er mysteriously leaned closer, and said softly: "I took the head oil of the Queen Mother of the West as a massage that day, and put the juice of the hook grass into there a little, the Queen Mother of the West pays attention to her demeanor, even if she is sick, she also dresses her hair every day, and the hair oil is essential, and it slowly penetrates into the skin, which is such a scene." ”

Zike shuddered suddenly, it turned out that so early, she started, she suddenly understood why she was the one who could enter the palace, she was ruthless and decisive, and she was indeed a sharp knife.
