The little palace maid sent refreshments and fruits, and Concubine Su De couldn't eat a bite, so she took some silver taels from the cabinet to make some points, but she heard from the palace people who came back from the court that Zhixia was just locked up, and there was no execution or interrogation.

"Why not interrogate?" Concubine Su De felt strange again, in her impression, there was no palace maid who had done ugly things that had not been interrogated.

"Xu has already been convicted of the coffin?" The little palace maid replied incomprehensibly.

What is this called? Zhixia is her close maid, will people believe that she is greedy for money to steal? Anyone who asks people to think about it will feel that this matter is instigated by her, the master. As for why she instigated, she must be jealous that Concubine Chen gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, and it is not terrible to be caught by others, but what if Nan Jingpei also believed this nonsense?

Concubine Su De's heart gradually tightened again: "Have you seen Zhixia?" ”

The little palace maid shook her head: "The head of the court said that it was the meaning of the above, and no one was allowed to see Sister Xia." ”

What does the above mean? Which one is above? Concubine Su De asked anxiously, but that's all the little palace maid knew.

The only way to do this is to wait, wait until the emperor finishes his military affairs, or wait for Shen Yunzhen to return by boat with the prince. She also asked someone to go to Lantai Palace to keep an eye on her, as soon as Shen Yunzhen came back, she would report to her immediately.

In the evening, the eunuch who was watching came back, but according to what he said, only Qingluo and Ah Ruo took the little prince back to the palace, and did not see Concubine Shen and Liu February. The eunuch did not dare to inquire, so he hurried back to report to her.

Concubine Su De asked someone to prepare a sedan chair to go to Lantai Palace, Ah Ruo had already beckoned the little prince to sleep, and only Qingluo entertained her. Concubine Su De stared at Qingluo, watching her pour tea and water in front of her and send snacks, and unconsciously remembered the past.

Back then, they were so harmonious and like-minded, they dealt with Concubine Shu together, and they dealt with Nan Yinglin together. What's going on now? Inexplicably, although everyone didn't say anything, they always felt that there was a layer of estrangement in the middle. The gap between the invisible and the tangible, but the real one.

Qingluo sent another plate of chrysanthemum cake, but Concubine Su De still didn't move.

"Qingluo, does Concubine Chen know about Zhixia?"

Although he was prepared in his heart, Qingluo was still stunned by Concubine Su De's sudden question. She shook her head at first, and then tilted her head a little more in a panic: "As soon as I came back, Wei Wei reported the matter of Miss Zhixia to his master." ”

Since Shen Yunzhen listened to Wei Wei's report, he went to the court without stopping. When she arrived at the court, Qingluo was sitting in the violent room with his knees crossed in a daze.

There were a few steamed buns and two bowls of vegetables piled up on the table next to Qing Luo, but Qing Luo didn't move, she was stiff like a stone statue, and she wanted to skip her breath.

Wei Wei had already used a satin box to hold the pair of bracelets, Shen Yun really touched Wen Ran's jade bracelet slightly with his fingertips, and asked Wei Wei again: "Did Zhixia say anything?" ”

Wei Wei shook his head: "No, she hasn't even said a word since she was locked up in this room. ”

"Open the door." Shen Yunzhen commanded abruptly.

The bronze lock was suddenly pried open by the small key, and the iron door lacked the infiltration of oil and water, making a creaking and rubbing sound.

Shen Yunzhen's figure attracted Zhixia's attention, and she finally couldn't sit still and jumped off the bed. Zhixia's hands and feet were bound by iron, and every step made a rattling sound.

She glared at Shen Yunzhen, and after a long time, she said in a low voice: "It's you, it's you who hurt me." ”

Shen Yunzhen stared at Zhixia silently, only to feel that she was becoming more and more strange.

"It's you who hurt yourself." Shen Yunzhen said.

Zhixia was stunned for a moment, and then let out a sneer, she raised a hand to herself: "Me? Am I hurting myself? ”

Shen Yunzhen's attitude was still indifferent: "Zhixia, you are a palace maid, what the palace maid has to do is to serve your master well, not make decisions for your master, especially the question of who to befriend and who to befriend." You, don't have that qualification. ”

"I don't understand what you're saying." Zhixia turned his face away, emphasizing that it was low and cold.

"You understand," Shen Yunzhen pulled Zhixia's arm: "You have provoked discord between the palace and Concubine De several times, do you think the palace can't see it?" ”

The corners of Zhixia's lips twitched slightly, and her eyes dodged unconsciously, maybe the other party's gaze was too sharp, or maybe she was really shallow, in short, she couldn't pretend to be able to do it.

"Haha!" Zhixia laughed mockingly: "Shen Yunzhen, you still talk about me?" ”

Zhixia suddenly smiled: "When you were a little palace maid, didn't you also turn your hands into clouds and rain and stir up the harem?" Aren't you also sowing discord among a few concubines? Didn't you also make that decision for Tian Meiren that made her regret it for the rest of her life? Are you too embarrassed to accuse me now? ”

Zhixia listed Shen Yunzhen's "several major crimes" in a row, and then laughed. She laughed more and more wildly, her whole body trembled, her facial features were extremely distorted, and she had an ugly face that Shen Yunzhen had never seen.

"You are just the daughter of a imperial doctor, how can you sit in the position of Concubine Chen?" Zhixia stared at her fiercely: "My master is also pregnant with a boy, why does the emperor want to canonize your son as the crown prince?" ”

Shen Yunzhen was suddenly stunned, she vaguely remembered that Nan Jingpei told her that he wanted to make a prince. But she was disturbed by something else at the time, so she didn't take this sentence to heart at all.

"You're acting like you're not in the know now? Hehe, didn't you ask the emperor to do this? Zhixia gritted his teeth and looked at her: "Do you know that my master is pregnant with a boy and deliberately embarrasses her?" Do you want everyone in the world to know that you Shen Yun really can't help but take away her man, and you can also take away the crown prince that her son should have!? ”

Liu February, who couldn't stand listening to it outside the door, rushed in and said: "Zhixia, you are also hateful, the emperor can canonize whoever he wants to be the concubine, and whoever the emperor wants to be the prince will be the prince, can you also ask about national affairs as a palace maid?" ”

"Didn't she ask about state affairs?" Zhixia took a few steps to Liu February's side: "Why don't you ask her, why did the emperor want to solve the Xiao family so quickly?" Isn't she the one who is in the way? Only her state officials are allowed to set fires, and my people are not allowed to light lamps? ”

It turned out that she wanted to be Shen Yunzhen's second. Shen Yunzhen stared at this Zhixia indifferently, but unfortunately, her trick was over before it began. Such a trick has no qualifications to fight her.

Shen Yunzhen finally snorted and met Zhixia's gaze: "It's the palace that underestimates you, and I thought you just wanted to fight for Concubine Su De, but I didn't expect your mind to be so vicious." ”

"Am I vicious?" Zhixia raised her eyebrows.
