Chapter 101: Movement
It's night, Zhuang Chenchen has never come to Fengluan Palace.
It was as if the Queen Mother was poisoned and unconscious, and he didn't know it at all.
That girl named Ruan Er must be very similar to the posture he dreamed about for a long time......
Cen Mooning poured water into her teacup, and her mind was completely absent, so that the water spilled on the table and dripped to the ground, splashing the peony embroidered shoes without noticing.
"Niangniang, let's let the slave come." Bingling took the kettle from her hand and set it aside, took out the silk and squatted down to wipe the upper of her shoes. "Don't worry, Niangniang, the imperial doctor said that the Queen Mother's poisoning is shallow, and it was discovered in time, as long as it is carefully recuperated, it will get better."
"Hmm." Cen Mu Ning nodded: "That's good." β
In fact, Bingling knew where her heart went, and deliberately didn't mention it, just because she didn't want her to feel uncomfortable. "The slave maid was just curious, the imperial doctor and the inner attendant were about to turn the entire Fengluan Hall over, and all the places were checked. The Queen Mother eats and wears it, and she doesn't let go of a place. It is strange that the cause of the poisoning has not been found. How thoughtful does it take to be so thoughtful? If such a person is still in the palace, he is afraid that he is a terrible threat. If she is deliberately trying to blame her mother, how should she deal with it? β
"Actually, this time, you don't have to think about it to know that it came at me." Cen Muning's tone was slightly cold: "The Queen Mother has done so many things before, isn't she just trying to drive me away from her eyes." I'm just curious, what did I offend the Queen Mother, the emperor has only been on the throne for less than a month, and she is so impatient that she even uses the bitter meat trick. β
Speaking of this, Cen Muling looked into Bingling's eyes and asked, "What do you think is the reason why the Queen Mother did this?" β
Bingling moved her lips, but shook her head again: "Are you afraid that the emperor and the abolished emperor will be sincere to their own queen, and they are afraid that it will be difficult to control it in the future, so they will not be able to tolerate you more and more?" β
Cen Muning didn't say any more, just got up and walked to the small stove where the medicine was boiling, and gently opened the lid of the medicine jar. "Almost, pour the medicine into the bowl. The palace went to feed the queen mother to take medicine. β
"This kind of thing, don't work for the queen's mother, the slave can." Lei Zhen walked over quickly, grabbed the handle of the medicine pot with a thick wet cotton towel, and poured the bitter medicinal juice into the jade bowl on the side. "The queen mother has also been here with the queen mother for a long time, so she should take a good rest."
"At this time, I don't know what the emperor is doing." Cen Muning deliberately said: "Why didn't Miss Lei Zhen go to the emperor and never invite the emperor over?" β
As soon as Lei Zhen heard this, she immediately drooped her face: "The emperor is served, how can the slave and maid see it." If the queen thinks that the slave is useless, why don't you go and invite the emperor to come over in person? β
"Why are you talking to your mother like that?" Bingling could hear that her tone was full of ridicule, so naturally she wouldn't let her.
"That's right." Cen Muning hooked her lips slightly: "The palace almost forgot, the queen mother chose a maid and gave it to the emperor." The palace is just curious, the maid was not selected from the palace, looking at the dust, as if she had just been brought in from outside. But when it comes to intimacy, how can a woman who has just entered the palace be as intimate as someone who sees the emperor every day. Especially those who are still serving by the side of the Queen Mother and are loyal. Such a person will naturally know how to serve the emperor better, right? β
These words were obvious enough, and Lei Zhen's face turned red. "Queen Mother, the slave is going to feed the Queen Mother. I won't talk to you. β
"It's fine." Cen Mu smiled and said, "The Queen Mother woke up and saw you serving so diligently." Maybe when my heart warms, I will grant your wish. β
Lei Zhen walked a few steps with the medicine bowl, and when she heard this, she turned around suddenly. The decoction in her hand was shaken by her, and she spilled a lot, burning her fingers. "When the queen mother says this, is she making fun of the slave?"
"Where's the teasing." Cen Mu Ning looked at her quietly: "This palace is just curious, the queen mother has always been wise and delicate, how can she not even understand the maid who gets along with her day and night." What you have in your heart, this palace is still clear. The Queen Mother was unaware. Is it because the Queen Mother is not happy that you are close to the emperor with such an identity, or are you not in the eyes of the Queen Mother at all? β
"The queen mother's words are too much. A slave is a slave, and it is already a great blessing to be able to serve the Queen Mother well. How dare you have your own mind. Lei Zhen saluted her angrily: "The slave maid still has to serve the queen mother with medicine, and she has no time to talk to the queen." β
Being exposed to her mind has already made Lei Zhen ashamed. It's just that the queen still wants to be so humiliated. even said that the queen mother had never looked at her in her eyes, and her status was not worthy of serving the emperor......
Why!
"Why did Niangniang say that, could it be that Lei Zhen ...... to the emperor" Bingling's face turned pale: "This is really interesting." β
"Originally, when the emperor was in the palace, he could only see him once when he entered the palace to ask for peace. Now, if the emperor doesn't come, she can also go to Qingxuan Palace, and she can meet every day. The mind is becoming more and more unable to hide. What's more, the Queen Mother is anxious to envelop the emperor, and selects beautiful women everywhere to send to the palace to serve, how can she have no ideas in her heart. Cen Mooning smiled lightly: "That's good." The Queen Mother has always been cautious, and the maidservants around her are the most trusted. If there is a disagreement between this master and servant, let's just watch the play. β
"That's what the mother said. It's just that the queen mother's methods are vicious, just like this, the slave and maid are really unwilling. Bingling frowned slightly, lowered her voice and said, "The slave seems to know, what is Niangniang's next plan?" β
Cen Mooning and Bingling glanced at each other, and saw some unusual traces in her eyes. It seems a little unfamiliar, but it seems to be a reasonable change. "Of course, the one who blamed me. Whoever she is. β
"The slave and maid understood, so she went to comb through what she had checked." Bingling looked at the sky and said, "It's so late, the slave will ask Sister Qingli to bring some food." β
"Wait." Cen Muning stopped her by taking a step: "Look at you, you have said that you should use some velvet flowers, but you don't listen." The fluff of this flower core is so little, but it still falls off badly. The clothes were stained. β
Cen Mooning flicked the fluff on her shoulders for her: "I have a good one, I'll give it to you when I turn back." β
"Thank you, Miss." Bingling smiled slightly, and then quickly retreated.
After feeding the medicine, Lei Zhen walked to the side hall worriedly. Let the small stove be moved here, and the medicine jar will be replaced with new medicine, and the boil will continue.
She didn't want to deal with the queen, so she deliberately hid here to boil medicine. He took a fan and fanned the fire in the stove one by one.
On a summer night, even though some wind blows in, it is still hot. Especially since there is such a stove here. Roasted people are impetuous. The more Lei Zhen fanned, the more angry she became. Thinking of the queen's words, the whole person was shrouded in dark clouds.
Is it true that the Queen Mother didn't even give her the opportunity to serve her master because she disliked her background?
Is the queen's words true?
As soon as this medicine was boiled, it took a stick of incense to boil, and it was indeed about the same. She got up and returned to the inner chamber and pulled out a small jade bottle from her bosom. When she unscrewed the cork and approached the tip of the Queen Mother's nose, she couldn't help but hesitate.
If the Queen Mother is like this, she goes to plead with the emperor and serve in front of the emperor, will the emperor nod his head because she is the queen mother?
Of course, this is just a thought. She sat on the edge of the bed and sent the bottle to the tip of the Queen Mother's nose, which was the only way to make the Queen Mother wake up as soon as possible. "Cuckoo ......"
A bird chirped outside the window, and the startled Lei Zhen turned her head suddenly.
A black cloth suddenly fell from the sky and covered her whole body. Before she could react, she was hit with a blow to the back of her head, and the whole person instantly wiped off consciousness.
Here, Qingli was accompanying Cen Muning to dinner, and before he took a bite of the pastry, he heard the hurried footsteps of a servant.
"Queen Mother, it's a big deal, the Queen Mother is ...... Go check it out. When Qingming walked in, his face turned blue.
Cen Muning hurriedly put down the pastry, grabbed the silk and wiped the corners of her mouth, and followed him to the queen mother's bedroom.
In the dormitory, Lei Zhen fell to the ground, unconscious. The Queen Mother on the bed had a sharp dagger stuck in her chest, and her face was pale and terrifying.
"Did you go to inform the emperor?" Cen Mu frowned and asked Qingming.
"Back to the queen's mother, such a big thing happened, and the inner room of Fengluan Hall went to see the emperor in a hurry. But they were quite tight-mouthed, if it weren't for the minions who felt that something was wrong and came in to take a look, I was afraid that the emperor would come, and we would know that something was wrong here. β
Ming Qing said in a panic: "The matter of the Queen Mother's poisoning has not been investigated yet, and this assassination has passed away, the queen mother, the slave is worried that we can't wash off this basin of dirty water......"
Cen Mu froze and walked to the bed with a frown. The dagger was inserted in the heart of the Queen Mother, and just by looking at it, it made people feel creepy. It's too cheap for her to die like this. Mother's matter, she has not yet admitted it personally. Who the hell is it......
She frowned, trying to touch the dagger, when she suddenly noticed something so familiar. "It's ......"
"The emperor has arrivedβ"
Before Liang Bao's voice fell, Zhuang Chenchen's figure had already appeared in front of everyone.
Cen Muning hurriedly stepped forward to salute, her face was ugly: "Your Majesty, all the concubines are useless, and they have failed to serve the Queen Mother well......"
"What the hell is going on?" Zhuang Chenchen walked to the side of the bed in three or two steps, his eyes sharp: "Yin Li, search the palace immediately, be sure to catch the assassin." Hurry up and call the imperial doctor. β
"Call the Imperial Doctor?" Cen Muning looked at him with some surprise, the Queen Mother was pierced through the heart, how could she still live? It was also because of this that she didn't expect to call someone to invite the imperial doctor over.
Zhuang Yanchen pressed the artery of the queen mother's neck with his hand, and said for a long time: "The queen mother is different from others, her heart grows in the chest hall on the right side. The knife, though dangerous, was not fatal. β
Hearing such words, Cen Muning didn't know whether to be happy or not. But she let out a long sigh of relief: "Thank God, if anything happens to the queen mother, the sins of the concubines will not be atoned for." β
"The queen has been in Fengluan Hall and has never left." Zhuang Chenchen's face was full of suspicion: "You can attack the unconscious queen mother under your nose, and this person is hiding in this palace." Maybe it's the people around you. You really didn't hear any movement? β
