Chapter 162: The Enchantress
However, the queen's voice was soon drowned out by the cacophony of music, and she repeated it again in a loud voice, but still no one paid attention to her, and even more presumptuously, a dancer guessed the hem of her dress and bumped into her as she twirled and jumped.
"—" The queen stood up, raised her hand and knocked the dancer to the ground, and the dancer was caught off guard, and rolled on the ground several times, her white arms were stained with wine juice, and the dress that was not much covered was torn wide.
At this moment, everyone in the dormitory quieted down and looked at the queen in unison. The emperor sat up straight, and when he saw that it was the queen coming, his face changed, "What are you doing here?" ”
The queen endured her anger and said: "Your Majesty, according to the regulations set by the Honorable Room, today is the fifteenth day of the first month, the emperor and queen should have dinner together, and the emperor needs to sleep in the middle palace. ”
The emperor was obviously drunk and fainted, and stood up tremblingly, and Qi Mei and Luan Meiren hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "What did you say?" Can't I hear clearly? How do you talk to chickens, grunting, ahahaha......"
The homonym of the chicken is the same as "prostitute", this word is often used in the market to scold people, many dancers in the palace hide their faces and snicker, and the queen's face can't hang up, "Your Majesty!" Please take care of the dragon body, don't be bewitched by these demon girls, if it is spread out to outsiders, the world will be in chaos, and the country will not be protected! ”
The emperor said angrily: "Shut up for me!" I see that you are the one who deceives the people! But is it because I didn't go to your bed? Promise you'll go tomorrow, okay? Is it okay for the queen to leave now? ”
At this time, Qi Meiren helped the emperor massage while soothing him, and Luan Meiren also said delicately: "Your Majesty, the concubine obviously just wants the emperor to be happy and forget the troubles in the court, so the queen scolded the concubine as a demon girl and slandered the concubine...... It is difficult for the concubines to survive in this palace anymore. ”
The emperor couldn't see the beauty crying, so he hugged the two of them, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, no one dares to touch you, good." He turned his head and saw that the queen was still standing there, quite dissatisfied, "What does the queen want to do?" Why don't you leave?! Do you want to see me and the beauties having sex here? Or does the queen want to join in? ”
The queen only felt that the scene in front of her broke her heart, and she was disgusted, and she couldn't help but feel sad. She thought about when she was young, it was many years ago, the emperor had not become an emperor, just a prince, and she was the only concubine in the palace.
Who would have thought that people's hearts would really change.
"Niangniang, what should I do in this situation now?" The palace maid beside the queen also hesitated, the queen was so angry that she almost slapped the palace maid again, "This palace does not raise you to ask questions, but to solve problems!" ”
The palace maid was aggrieved in her heart, and muttered to herself: It's the emperor who doesn't like you, why is it on my head again?
"What are you doing in a daze?! Let's go! The queen flicked her sleeves and left the emperor's bedroom with a group of people, and the two people lying on the beam of the room saw her departing back, looked at each other, and jumped to the ground together. Before the guards guarding the corridor could find out, the two of them jumped at the same time, and landed on the other side of the beam closer to the palace gate.
Those two were Mo Jingli and Mo Yufei. Today, Qi Mei and Luan Mei suddenly danced in the imperial garden, and it was their idea to drag the emperor back to the palace. It's a pity that today is unfortunately the fifteenth, and the queen is involved again.
They waited outside the palace for a long time, only then did they see Qi Meiren come out secretly, coughed a few times, and said to the guards outside: "The emperor has decreed, now you all go to the outer hall to guard, no one is allowed in this courtyard, whether it is a palace maid, a eunuch or a guard, all go out, if there is news, just send one person in to report." ”
Those guards originally didn't believe the words of Qi Meiren, but everyone saw it, even if the queen came, it couldn't compare to these bewitching women, and they were not angry alive, not to mention their petty officials, who saluted and left immediately. Soon, there was no one near the dormitory.
After Mo Jingli and Mo Yufei were sure that they were safe, they went to the ground, and the two beauties came out and said that the emperor was drunk and unconscious, and the queen was also driven away, and no one would come for a while.
The four of them hurried into the dormitory and searched for the secret room. Mo Yufei knocked almost every tile in the dormitory aside, but he didn't hear which one was hollow, and he was so anxious that he jumped around. The two beauties also moved the porcelain vases and utensils, and pressed them on the protruding parts that looked like switches, but there was still no change.
The emperor's secret room is really hidden deeply!
"Hey, wait, look at that picture!" Mo Jingli suddenly shouted, holding the hilt of his sword and pointing at a mural directly opposite the emperor's bed. They had never been to the emperor's bedroom, so they asked the two beauties, "Has that painting been hanging there all along?" ”
The two beauties pondered for a long time, but Luan Meiren said with conviction: "It has been changed many times in the past, although the content is different, but the size and shape are the same, and they are all hanging here." If it were to be removed one day, it would be strange that something was missing here. ”
Mo Yufei jumped onto the bed, carefully bypassed the emperor's body, and touched the mural lightly. Sure enough, the back was empty, and the secret room must be inside. He tried to remove the mural, but the mural was heavy and large, as if it was inlaid on the wall, and he couldn't move it at all, so Mo Yu had to come down again and look at Mo Jingli.
"It's definitely not that simple, there must be other mechanisms." Mo Jingli pinched his chin and said, "We're looking separately, we must have missed something." ”
On the other side, the queen was angry in the emperor's bedroom, and she had nowhere to spread her belly, and she didn't go back to the middle palace, so she walked casually in a nearby garden, which was supposed to be a walk after dinner. And the emperor's bedroom in that garden was very close, only separated by a sparse small forest, and the queen stood in the small forest and looked in the direction of the emperor's bedroom.
Of course, you can't see the inside, but you can see the gate. She thought that maybe the emperor would find out in his conscience in a while, regret driving her away, and then send someone to summon her.
Who knows, the emperor didn't wait, but saw a group of guards and palace maids and eunuchs coming out of it, all standing outside the palace wall in a regular manner, and the grandmother reminded that those were the guards and palace maids who were guarding outside the emperor's bedroom, and they were somehow sent outside.
The queen felt a strange uneasiness, and said in her heart, now that only the emperor and those demon girls are inside, nothing will happen to the emperor, right?
The queen thought of the men who were killed by women in bed mentioned in the history books, and she was panicked at the moment, and walked quickly back to the gate of the dormitory to ask the guards.
The leading guard replied: "It is the holy oracle passed down by the Qimei people, let me and others stay outside and do not set foot in the courtyard, if anyone comes, only send one person in to report." ”
"Kimi?" The queen's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "In other words, none of you heard the emperor's personal orders?" ”
The guard was stunned for a moment, then said, "No." But when his subordinates see that Qi Meiren often accompanies His Majesty, what they say should not be ......."
"Should?!" The queen was furious, "This is how you protect the emperor? This palace asks you, where was the emperor when Qi Meiren said this? Have you seen him and heard his voice? ”
The guards were yelled at by the queen, and they also felt that something was wrong. In previous years, the emperor did not take the concubine back to his bedroom, but he never retreated everyone. The emperor is actually very insecure when he sits in such a position, he has to take a group of personal soldiers with him wherever he goes, and the imperial guards are also personally selected by himself, so he can't be careless, but now he has sent them away......
"Besides, even if you are sent away, why are these dancing female musicians also sent away? Is there only Qi Mei and Luan Mei around the emperor now? The queen's brow furrowed even deeper when she caught a glimpse of the dancing musicians standing behind the guards and palace maids, trembling.
"What do you want to do with this palace!"
The guard hurriedly replied: "Hui Niangniang, at that time, only Qi Meiren came out to tell his subordinates about this, I haven't seen His Majesty come out before, it should still be in the palace, as for the voice...... The subordinates didn't seem to hear it, but perhaps His Majesty was asleep at that time. ”
"Asleep? Don't get killed! As soon as the queen pushed away the guards and was about to go inside, the guards thought about it and stopped her, "Niangniang, please don't embarrass your subordinates, regardless of whether Qi Meiren's dictation is true or not, but since she said that it is the holy oracle, we should abide by it, please allow your subordinates to go and report it." With that, he trotted all the way into the inner sanctum.
At this time, Mo Jingli, Mo Yufei, Qi Meiren and Luan Meiren were still looking for the mechanism, but no matter how they searched, they couldn't find it, and when the four of them were in a hurry, Mo Jingli was the first to hear the footsteps coming from outside, and opened his big hand and waved it into the air, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"Someone's coming." He whispered. Qimei hurriedly closed the door and waited quietly. Sure enough, not long after, I heard a guard from outside, "The queen mother is here." ”
"Why did she come back again?" Luan Meiren scolded angrily, "This damn stalker, this time to spoil our good deeds!" ”
Qi Meiren messed up her clothes, pushed the door out, and deliberately whispered: "Your Majesty has already slept, let Niangniang come back tomorrow." ”
The guards probed their brains to see the situation inside, but Qi Meiren kept blocking his vision, and he had no choice but to retreat and report to the queen. Qi Meiren re-entered the dormitory, her face was very ugly, "It seems that the queen is suspicious, and the guard is dishonest when he probes his brain, and he obviously wants to verify something." ”
This situation was something they didn't expect, and Mo Jingli judged: "If the queen is really suspicious, she may break in desperately, and we don't have much time." ”
