Chapter 290: Murder in the Palace

"How?" Ning Shangmo saw that he didn't speak, and asked rhetorically.

"Just let you be grounded in this East Garden, let alone go out of the house." Ming thought about it lightly and replied seriously. This was the first time he had said cruel things to Ning Shangmo.

Ning Shangmo couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Do you think they can master me?" ”

"I just won't let you go anyway." Ming Qingyan made up her mind, since Empress Wu Qin sent someone to hunt her down, then she must hate her to the core, he couldn't let her go to Wu Qin to take risks, she was still pregnant with his child.

Ning Shangmo insisted on going, the two were at a stalemate, and no one could convince anyone.

In the end, Ming Qingyan could only give in and was willing to let her go with him, but she couldn't show her true face, she could only be his maid.

As long as he can go to Wu Qin, Ning Shangmo didn't care who he was pretending to be, so he nodded and agreed without hesitation.

She agreed so readily, but it made Ming Qingyan feel unsure, and couldn't help but look at her suspiciously, and asked out loud: "You don't want to play any tricks, do you?" ”

Ning Shangmo couldn't help but sneer when he heard this: "What tricks can I play in front of you?" It's really the heart of a villain, and the belly of a gentleman. ”

Ming Qingyan heard her say this, although his heart was still unsteady, but he had nothing to say.

It just so happened that Mo Bai wanted to escort the grain and grass back to Qinglong City to bid farewell to them.

Ming said lightly and asked him to bring a letter to Leng Qingrong and tell him that everything was fine in the imperial city.

He wants to go to Wu Qin with Ning Shangmo to settle a public case, and then go directly from Wu Qin to Qinglong City. If there is anything in Qinglong City, send someone to Wu Qin to find them.

Mo Bai saw that he didn't say anything or ask, just nodded and promised that he would definitely bring the words to Leng Qingrong, and then said goodbye and left.

Ning Shangmo planned to leave for Wu Qin the next day, but Ming Qingyan insisted on letting her rest at home for a day before leaving.

If it weren't for the fact that running long distances like this would be detrimental to the fetus in her womb, Ning Shangmo couldn't resist him, so he had to agree.

So the next day, she went into the palace to see Ning Yunni.

Naturally, the two sisters had endless whispers as soon as they met, and the two forgot the time to chat, until Yan Nanhao finished handling business and came to Ning Yunni's bedroom from the imperial study, and the two of them realized that it was time for lunch.

Ning Yunni and Yan Nanhao stayed in Ning Shangmo for lunch in the palace, Ning Shangmo did not refuse, and after lunch, they lay down in the side hall for a lunch break.

She was also tired these days, and was led by Chu Yue to hide in Tibet, and fell asleep not long after lying down.

But he didn't want to hear Ning Yunni's screams suddenly.

She woke up from her sleep, turned over and got out of bed, and as she walked out, she raised her voice and asked, "Sister Yunni, what's wrong?" ”

Ning Yunni's cries kept coming out of her bedroom, and when Ning Shangmo rushed in, he saw her rolling on the bed with her stomach in pain, and hurriedly asked the little palace maids serving next to her, "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

The little palace maids cried and replied: "After the concubine Niangniang had lunch, she suddenly had a stomachache when she fell asleep, and we don't know what's wrong. ”

"Didn't you call the Imperial Doctor? You just guard her like this, watching her hurt? Ning Shangmo couldn't help but say angrily.

"I've already called the imperial doctor and the emperor." The little palace maids replied.

Ning Shangmo stopped talking, reached out and hugged Ning Yunni in his arms, and said softly: "Sister, it's okay, let me see." ”

"Mo'er, my stomach hurts so much, is it going to give birth?" Ning Yunni gasped in pain and asked crying.

Ning Shangmo put three fingers on her wrist artery and held her breath to auscultate.

"Sister, it's about to give birth, don't be nervous." Saying that, she instructed the palace maids to help Ning Yunni to the bed, and then give her some preparations before giving birth, and asked people to call the emperor and the queen mother and the midwife.

So the palace maids acted separately, while she stayed by Ning Yunni's side.

"Sister, did you feel anything wrong when you slept?" She asked softly.

Judging from the pulse, the fetus is not yet full-term, but there are signs of imminent delivery, which should be stimulated by some external force, so she asked.

Ning Yunni thought for a while and said, "I was asleep, and I felt my hands on my neck, and I struggled desperately. At that time, I was so struggling that I forgot that I was pregnant, and it turned out that my stomach hurt as if I had suddenly broken my heart, and then I woke up. When I opened my eyes, there was nothing, but my stomach hurt so badly that I couldn't stand it. ”

Ning Shangmo heard her say this, and then looked at her jaw.

Seeing nothing, she reached out and gently removed her collar, and sure enough, she saw a red strangulation mark.

She couldn't help but sink down suddenly, could it be that someone came in this palace again? How could anyone enter my sister's dormitory in broad daylight and commit murder? Since the poisoning of Tuoba Yanling happened in the palace, it should be that the security has been strengthened, and no villains will be able to sneak in, especially in broad daylight, it is almost impossible.

Don't......

She broke out in a cold sweat.

"There's an inner ghost!" A voice came, Ning Shangmo subconsciously looked up, and when he saw the emperor standing beside him, he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?" ”

"Concubine Yun's cry can be heard in the imperial study." Yan Nanhao's face was dark, and he raised his voice and ordered: "Come on, detain all the eunuchs and palace maids in this palace to the courtyard according to the roster." Tell the chief eunuch that if you can't catch anyone who wants to poison Yun Guifei, let him come to see me himself. ”

After giving the order, he knelt beside the bed, took Ning Yunni's hand, and said distressedly: "Aifei, it's my fault that I didn't protect you." ”

Ning Yunni endured the abdominal pain, shook her head and said: "The emperor doesn't complain about you, it's all the cultivation of the concubines, I hope you don't punish anyone, I just want my little prince to be safe." ”

Yan Nanhao nodded and said, "Okay, no one will punish you, our little prince will be born safely." ”

After speaking, he held Ning Shangmo's hand tightly, and then asked in a loud voice, "What about the midwife?" Why hasn't it come yet? ”

As soon as his words fell, someone at the door replied, "The midwife is here." ”

So Ning Shangmo hurriedly got up and let the midwife into the room.

The midwife looked at Ning Shangmo and said loudly: "This master is also a pregnant person, so I'm afraid there will be a conflict or leave." The emperor is the Ninety-Five, and he can't be in the delivery room. Also go out. ”

When Ning Shangmo heard this, he saw the midwife's eyes dodging, and he couldn't help but be suspicious.

Shen asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" Where did it come from? ”

The midwife hurriedly replied: "If you go back to the master, the slave is the midwife, who is responsible for delivering the baby." ”

Ning Shangmo sneered: "I see that your eyes are very raw, I know all the midwives in the palace, and I have told them some prenatal and postnatal nursing knowledge." Let's talk about who you are, if it weren't for the crime of murdering Yun Guifei on your head, I'm afraid that you won't be able to cut off a few heads. ”

When the midwife heard this, she immediately fell to her knees with weak legs, "The master spares his life, the slave and maid are forced to be helpless, if it is not for who dares to do this headless thing?" Please spare my life, master, for the man threatens me that if I don't agree to come in, he will kill my whole family. ”

As soon as the emperor heard that this midwife was fake, he was in a hurry to draw his sword and kill her.

Ning Shangmo hurriedly stopped him: "The emperor is angry, it's useless for you to kill her now." ”

As she spoke, she looked at Ning Yunni.

Seeing that Ning Yunni had been in pain for a while, and now she was much better, so she asked out loud, "Sister, how do you feel now?" ”

Ning Yunni responded weakly: "I feel much better now, it doesn't hurt anymore." ”

Ning Shangmo nodded, knowing that she was in the middle of contractions, so he said out loud: "Sister, that's not in the way, when you hurt again, tell us." ”

Ning Yunni let out a light "um" and agreed.

Ning Shangmo said to the midwife: "Tell me, who threatened you." ”

"It's a young man, he doesn't look like our big bullies, and he's dressed very weirdly." The midwife replied: "He broke into my house and threatened me, let me enter the palace to deliver the baby for Yun Guifei, and when the child is born, I must find a way to kill him, even if he can't die, he will crush his testicles." When the time comes, it will be said that it is stillborn or born with a disability. ”

Hearing this, Yan Nanhao couldn't control the anger in his heart again, and pointed his sword at the midwife to kill her.

Frightened, the midwife hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Ning Shangmo sighed: "Your Majesty, isn't this an interrogation?" Did it work for you to kill her? Nothing can be asked about killing her, and the fact of inheritance cannot be changed, and the main messenger behind the scenes will never be found. ”

Only then did Yan Nanhao withdraw his sword, stood aside with anger, and shouted to the midwife: "Say! Who is that man? and who brought you into the palace? ”

The midwife kowtowed vigorously and begged for mercy: "I really don't know who that person is, and I don't know either." ”

Ning Shangmo took out a portrait from his body and asked out loud, "Look at it, but this person?" ”

When the midwife saw the person in the portrait, she immediately nodded and replied, "Yes, this is the person, wearing such clothes." ”

Ning Shangmo said to the emperor: "It seems that it is Chu Yue. ”

Yan Nanhao's eyes spewed angry flames, and he asked puzzledly: "I have no grievances with him, why did he murder my concubine and prince like this?" ”

"Maybe it's because of me, he can't get me, so he wants me to watch my relatives suffer a hundred times more, I'm afraid it's the method I learned from Tuoba Yanling." Ning Shangmo sighed: "How could he do this if it weren't for him?" Besides, Da Ling is now allied with Xiliang, if it weren't for this reason, he would never dare to make a move. ”

"I'm looking for Emperor Xiliang to ......"

Before Yan Nanhao's words were finished, Ning Shangmo immediately said out loud: "Regardless of Xiliang's affairs, he is a person who does things alone, and Emperor Xiliang naturally disdains his behavior, and sent the crown prince and princess to arrest him back to China, but he was unexpectedly poisoned by him, those things have already been told to you, this time he escaped from Xiliang." If we turn against Xi Liang because of him, wouldn't it make him satisfied? ”

Yan Nanhao nodded when he heard this, "What you said makes sense." ”

Then he turned his head and asked the midwife, "Who brought you into the palace?" ”
