Chapter 148: The bones are cold and the soul is as clear as waking up from a dream

Duo Lan asked vigilantly: "Otherwise, let Gonggong Xue lead the guards to take a look, Niangniang, people's hearts are unpredictable, we can't help but guard against it." You can't take any chances. ”

Lan Xin knew that she was worried about herself, so she felt a little more comfortable, and couldn't help but say, "It's okay, Xue Guining, you lead the guards to take a look, and come to the palace quickly." ”

"Huh." At the same time as Xue Guining responded, his spirit suddenly lifted up, and he hurriedly retreated.

Taking advantage of this, Duo Lan combed a simple bun for the queen's dressing. "Niangniang, you say, could it be that something went wrong in which palace? I have come so late to ask for your will. ”

"Hongu always feels that it is not so simple." Lan Xin looked at himself in the mirror by the dim light of the palace lamp, and was startled. How can in the dressing mirror of the gilded phoenix dance for nine days, his face will look so withered, and he will be like a wood. She's only twenty-five years old.

Duo Lan saw that the queen had something on her mind, and knelt beside the queen obediently, and knocked her knees with both hands with fists. Once or twice, the force is just right, and from time to time I will rub it with the palm of my hand to relieve the soreness. "Maybe the mother will think that the slave is too talkative, but Duolan always can't hold back her words."

Lan Xin closed his eyes lightly, sighed slowly, and then said, "If you have anything to say, just say it." In the past, Lan Xin thought that he was quite strict and decent, but he couldn't suppress Zhilan beside him. Now that Zhilan has been sent out of the palace, all those who can stay by her side and serve are all able to communicate with each other. Lan Xin also wanted to hear the voices in their hearts.

"Wei Lan's death, I really can't blame you." Duo Lan bit his lip and said worriedly: "If it weren't for the fact that there were always rights and wrongs in the Chengqian Palace, and even endangered the emperor's holy body and health, how could you be like this." It's not that the slave and maid are deliberately instigating right and wrong, the concubine and the concubine can't even look down on the people in her palace, and the emperor may not care about it once or twice, but it will go on for a long time......"

"Alright." Lan Xin's tone still couldn't hear the reproach: "This palace knows it." In fact, Duolan's words are not unreasonable, three times and twice, Lan Xin wants to give Concubine Xian a chance to please the emperor and support her to be favored steadily, after all, Concubine Xian used to be the woman the emperor cared about the most, and she has always accompanied herself in the mansion to help her side Fujin.

She still hopes that Concubine Xian can be the same as before. In fact, Lan Xin is not selfish, she can see that the emperor really cares for Concubine Xian, otherwise how could he condone it so much if there were accidents three times or twice.

"Mother, listen." Duo Lan heard the hurried footsteps of the group, and couldn't help but hang his heart: "It's Grandpa Xue and they are back." ”

Lan Xin couldn't help but be a little worried, and looked straight at the door with his eyes.

"The Queen." Xue Guining called out outside the door.

"Father-in-law, come in." Duo Lan got the queen's eye and hurriedly called people in.

Two guards entered at the same time, and together they stood an old woman in rags, whose hair was gray and dry, like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost, and her head was hanging weakly, and she could not see her expression at all.

"Alright, you go back on an errand." Xue Guining gave an order, and the guards teased people in front of the queen, and then retreated.

"This is ......" The queen couldn't help but be a little confused, looking at such a weak and weak old woman, could it be the same person who just slapped the palace door and smashed the sound of a bang? It's weird, what the hell is she trying to do?

When the old woman heard the queen's question, she fell to the ground and knocked three times, her movements were a little elegant, and her voice was hoarse but full of respect: "The queen mother is blessed with Jin'an, the slave and maid escaped from the leakage, think about it, only the Changchun Palace can protect the slave and maid, so it alarmed the queen mother." I hope you will forgive your sins. ”

She speaks slowly and logically, and the rules are not wrong, as if she has been a slave in the palace for a few years, but she is not an old woman from an ordinary family.

This made Lan Xin even more confused. "Who are you? Tilt your head up. ”

Listening to the queen's words, the old woman really raised her head slowly, and stroked the messy hair that blocked her face: "The slave has an ugly face, and she shouldn't have defiled the queen's phoenix eyes." But the slave maid is wronged, and only the queen can call the shots. ”

Lan Xin didn't know the person in front of her at all, although she guessed that she was from the palace, but she didn't match her age. "Long story short, what grievances do you have?"

"Slave maid......" The old woman glanced around vigilantly, for fear that Xue Guining and Duo Lan would be disloyal.

"Don't be suspicious in this palace, don't be suspicious in employing people, just say what you have to say." Lan Xin's brows tightened, the more cautious the person in front of him was, the more difficult it was to figure out.

"The slave maid is as cheap as Ying, and she is the nurse of the emperor today."

"What?" Lan Xin stood up suddenly, and said in astonishment: "You are the emperor's nurse." So, you know everything about that year...... But aren't you already old and returned to your hometown, and died of illness in your old rented house? How could it appear alive within the scope of the Forbidden Palace? It's incredible, how dare Lan Xin believe her words.

According to the queen mother's temperament, it is impossible for her to keep the handle and wait for someone to expose herself, and she is just an old woman, what ability does she have to break into the forbidden palace to complain? "Why does this palace believe you?" Lan Xin's cautious gaze swept across her haggard face like a sharp sword.

"The queen mother actually knows something about the events of the year, so she is already suspicious of the emperor when she wants to come." Ruying smiled bitterly, as if she expected the queen to be worried: "There is a small birthmark on the emperor's left shoulder, which is oval, about the size of a small fingernail, and it is still a faint vermilion. ”

"What does this mean?" Lan Xin knew that she was right, but after all, it was not a great secret that the emperor had a birthmark on his shoulder. "The grandmothers, nurses and even eunuchs who serve the emperor have seen it. Based on this argument alone, you want this palace to believe you such a ridiculous statement? ”

"As the queen said, the slave maid is really an old man who has been waiting for the emperor for a long time, and the emperor grew up drinking the milk of the slave maid." Ruying sighed in a low voice, but there were no tears: "The slave has been imprisoned in the palace for a long time, and he refuses to die with hatred, just looking forward to the day when he can make the mystery of the emperor's life known to him."

It's not that the slave has no evidence, but that the evidence is no longer on the slave and the maid at all, otherwise the mother thinks that why can the slave and the maid live to this time. What kind of role is Concubine Xi, although she is now the queen mother, but for this reason, she doesn't want the slave to shake out her shocking secret...... "Ruying wants to speak and stop, just because the matter is too big, and if she pierces the hole, maybe the sky will fall." Therefore, she really did not dare to speak until she had the full trust of the queen.

Lan Xin was so excited by her words that she shuddered, and her skin was densely covered with a layer of small bumps, which was heart-wrenching. Reason told her that she couldn't take any risks based on Ruying's one-sided words. can't help but fully believe her words in her heart, if she really has the secret of accusing the Queen Mother in her hand, then it is reasonable that she is imprisoned in the Forbidden City.

I can't suppress the heart-wrenching pain, and uncomfortable people can't help but be a little anxious. Lan Xin didn't want to believe that this was true, the Queen Mother could imprison a good person, and she must have failed to gamble on her mouth. But in order to pry her mouth open and tell where the evidence is, she will inevitably do everything......

Ruying saw that the queen's eyebrows were deeply locked, worried and flustered, and couldn't help but smile: "The queen really doesn't have to worry about the slave maid, the slave maid is a person who has stepped into the coffin with one foot, and she is alive just for the emperor." The emperor grew up drinking the milk of slaves and maids, and to put it disrespectfully, slaves and maids selfishly regarded the emperor as their own flesh and blood.

That taste, if you want to come to the queen, you must understand. The emperor was kind to the slave maid, how could the slave and the maid bear to watch him being kept in the dark. The Queen Mother, from beginning to end, was not the emperor's concubine, the Queen Mother was just forcibly picked up from someone else by her grace and begged the emperor's grace......"

"Shut up." Lan Xin's five fingers pressed on her chest, only to feel so stuffy that she was about to lose her breath. "Until there is no evidence, this palace will not believe a word of your words."

Duo Lan and Xue Guining were so shocked that they couldn't help but tremble, how could they have expected that in the middle of the night, someone would say that the emperor was not the flesh and blood of the queen mother's relatives. It's too creepy, isn't it a dream?

"It should be. Ruying understands the queen's difficulties. "I had expected the queen to say this, Ruying was finally calm." The evidence of the slave and maid is still there, as long as the queen wants to help the slave and maid get the evidence, the slave and maid can expose the shameless behavior of the pseudo queen mother in front of the emperor. ”

Lan Xin knew that the emperor was originally suspicious of his life experience, and he never stopped secretly sending people to collect evidence. If Ruying is really the emperor's nurse, then the emperor will definitely be able to recognize her when he sees her.

But before she could speak, there was a deep sound of knocking at the palace door.

Xue Guining was excited, and hurriedly said: "Minion, let's go and see what's going on." ”

"Don't." Ruying was obviously excited: "It must be the queen mother who got the letter, knew that the slave and maid had escaped, and searched around to find the ...... of Changchun Palace" After a pause, she hurriedly crawled to the queen's feet: "Niangniang, the slave and maid are not afraid of death, they have endured humiliation and burdens over the years, and they have long been accustomed to all kinds of cruel punishments." But Niangniang, how can heavenly principles be hidden, and how can grievances be buried? ”

"Don't say it, this palace knows it." Lan Xin glanced at Xue Guining and said calmly: "You go to deal with it, no matter who it is, you are not allowed to open the palace door and let it in, just say that the palace has a nightmare, I am shocked, and I am about to breathe." In short, you have to delay as much as possible, and there are the guards who brought people in just now, and all those who have seen Ruying must keep their mouths shut. ”

"The minion understands." Xue Guining's face was serious, and when he hurriedly retreated, he couldn't help but glance at Ruying suspiciously.

"Duolan, is there any place in our palace where people can be hidden. If it is indeed the Queen Mother who sends someone to search the palace, I am afraid that the palace is not selfless, and it will not be able to stop it after all. Think about it. "Lan Xin's anxiety is not unreasonable, in the harem, it must be the queen mother who covers the sky with one hand.

Turning his face suddenly, Lan Xin realized something, his eyes lit up angrily, and he took a step towards Ruying: "You can't deliberately deceive this palace, right?" ”
