Helian lowered his head and laughed slowly after hearing the Queen Mother's words. The laughter was quiet and ethereal, as if it was not real.

No one has ever responded to her request with such an attitude, and the Queen Mother's face is cold and scary, and her tone is not good. "Why didn't the mourning family see that such a greedy person did not hesitate to die. What is the use of asking for so much silver? Dead flowers! ”

"The Queen Mother forgives her sins." Helian regained his usual expression, frowned, and said, "Don't you just dislike the queen and want her to fall off the phoenix chair?" There aren't too many ways to do this, so why use such a tortuous approach? In fact, all you need is a little powder, crisp and neat, isn't it better? ”

"Nonsense." The Queen Mother glared at him unhappily: "If it's so easy, I still need you." ”

Obviously, there was something in the words, Helian arched his hand and said: "Weichen is stupid, please also ask the Queen Mother to make it clear." ”

"What the mourners want is to leave no trace." The Queen Mother's eyebrows were slightly cold: "Life is short, the sky is not pitiful, and I can't complain about others." ”

"Wechen understood." Helian looked at the Queen Mother with interest: "If you follow what the Queen Mother said, it is not impossible." Just ......"

"Hmph." The Queen Mother knew that he wanted to be paid. "If you can do this well, the mourning family will give you endless glory for the rest of your life."

"The Queen Mother's words, Weichen naturally believed it. But as the saying goes, the three armies go first before they move the grain and grass. Wechen's habit is to take the silver first and then do things. Helian looked at the coldness in the Queen Mother's eyes, and his tone was not inferior: "Otherwise, I really didn't have the life to spend that silver, wouldn't Weichen be blind to death." ”

The Queen Mother snorted lightly and clapped her hands three times in a row.

Outside the door, Lei Zhen heard the movement before daring to step forward: "What does the Queen Mother command?" ”

"Go and bring the mourner's box." The Queen Mother looked at her with her eyes.

"Yes." Lei Zhen turned around and came over with a box, and handed it to Helian personally at the suggestion of the Queen Mother.

"Thank you for the kindness of the Queen Mother." Without hesitation, Helian opened the box and saw that there were several silver tickets inside. Underneath the silver ticket, there is also a booklet. Curiously, he put away the ticket and opened it and glanced at it. "What does the Queen Mother mean by this?"

"It is said that there is no doubt in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people, you have to mourn the family to trust you, and the mourning family must have a reason to believe in you. You can take this deposit first. The Queen Mother smiled slightly: "The mourning family is waiting for your good news, the more appropriate and faster things are done, the more generous the remuneration paid by the mourning family." See for yourself. ”

"Wechen, thank you for the Queen Mother's reward." Helian took out all the contents of the box, closed the box, and handed it to Rei. "Wechen retired."

The coolness of the autumn leaves poured into his body along the mouth of the leader of the clothes, and the few silver tickets that Helian carried in his arms were not enough to bring him warmth. It was the booklet in his hand that made him have an indescribable strange feeling, this is the palace.

This is what approaching imperial power should see.

For several days, Qingli did not come out of his wing.

Cen Muning and Bingling went to see her, but they were only told that she was asleep and turned away.

That night, she must have experienced a lot of things that she never wanted to remember in her life. Cen Muning was worried about her, but she also respected her choice. Sometimes, people always like to close themselves off, hide in a place that others can't see, and silently lick their wounds. At this time, no one else could help her, so she could only rely on herself to survive......

"Miss, don't feel bad." Bingling handed over a cup of bee syrup: "Drink some to moisten your throat." Qingli has survived so hard, and the slave believes that she will be able to stand up. ”

"Hmm." Cen Mooning also nodded. "Actually, I really want the emperor to hand over that person, but ...... I always feel that I can't even do anything for Qingli, and I feel very guilty. ”

"I see what you mean." Bingling frowned and said: "Qingli is the one who serves the emperor after all, and the emperor will definitely seek justice for her." Even if you don't say it, Miss, it doesn't matter. ”

"How the emperor does it is the emperor's business. But I don't say it, I always feel sorry for the green plow. Cen Mu Ning closed her eyes, the hatred in her heart was like mushrooms after the rain, desperately trying to arch out. Thinking of this, she just couldn't sit still.

"Are there any other pastries in the ice cream kitchen? You go and prepare two things, let's go to the Qingxuan Palace. Cen Muning still felt that she should seek justice for Qingli. Otherwise, it would be too unfair to her.

"Slave and maid, go get it." Bingling nodded though she knew that doing so might be a threat to Miss. After all, she knows Miss's temperament, and some things may be wrong, but if she doesn't do it, she will not be able to get over this hurdle in this life.

Before Ruan Ercai put the lotus seed soup in the bowl, she heard Liang Bao spread the word outside, saying that the queen had arrived.

She put down the bowl and stepped forward with Huanpei's hand: "The concubine asks the queen to say goodbye." ”

"Concubine Ying, too." Cen Muning is not surprised to see her here, if she can't see her so attentive, she will feel strange. "Concubine Ying's belly seems to be a little bigger, and it looks slightly bulging."

"Yes." Ruan Er smiled and said, "The concubine thinks so too. Although the clothes can still be worn, they will not look tight. But I can obviously feel that my belly is getting bigger day by day, and my body is bulky when I walk or do things. ”

Looking at her happy face, Cen Muning's heart was slightly cold. It can't be said that he is jealous, but it seems too hypocritical to say that he is sincerely happy for her. So she just kept a proper smile and didn't say any more.

"Your Majesty, you're here." Ruan Er happened to see Zhuang Chenchen come in and saluted him warmly. "The time is just right, the queen mother has just arrived and you are here."

"Say hello to the emperor." Cen Mooning turned around and saluted.

"That's it." Zhuang Chenchen is as peaceful as before, and he can't see his thoughts. "I'm just going to see the Queen."

This sentence instantly made Ruan feel that he was an outsider. She was also going to give the white fungus soup to the emperor, so that she could only withdraw silently by herself like last time. But every time she is like this, she is really unwilling.

"Then the concubine will not delay the emperor to talk to the queen, and the concubine will retire first."

She curts, but when she got up, she deliberately didn't stand firm, and her whole body tilted to the side, which frightened herself.

Zhuang Chenchen moved quickly, and immediately held her waist: "What's wrong with Concubine Ying?" ”

"The concubine lost her honor, and asked the emperor to forgive her sins." Although Ruan said this, he leaned on his strong mantis arm and did not mean to get up at all. "It may be that the concubine got up in a hurry when she saluted, and her head was a little dizzy."

Cen Muning looked at her soft appearance, frowned and said, "Dizziness can be big or small if you are pregnant." Your Majesty, it's better to let Helian take a look at Concubine Ying. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, but the deputy court judge is the imperial doctor who the emperor ordered to take care of your phoenix body full-time. How can the concubine be arrogant. Ruan smiled lightly, her eyes full of sweetness.

"It's okay." Zhuang Chenchen nodded: "Send Concubine Ying back to Piaoying Garden, and let Helian go over and take a closer look." ”

Without waiting for Ruan to speak, he frowned and said, "I have everything here, you don't have to come here every day." Your body matters. What's more, if it is bright today, it is the best policy to recuperate in peace of mind, and I hope that you can give birth to my eldest son. ”

Rouer moved her lips, but she didn't know what to say.

Huan Pei hurriedly helped her: "Niangniang, let's go back to the palace." ”

"Thank you for the favor of the emperor and queen, the concubine has retired." In her eyes, there was a loss that could not be concealed. Originally, she wanted to be a coquette, so that the emperor was reluctant to let her go. How do you know that being smart is mistaken by being smart, and it backfires.

Zhuang Chenchen reached out and shook Cen Muning's hand: "I just knew that you would come." But you're more composed, than I expected. ”

"Then the emperor knows why the concubines came, and does he think the concubines are ignorant." Cen Muning looked into his eyes, unable to figure out what he was thinking. Concubine Ying was obviously coquettish, but he cut off other people's thoughts and didn't allow her to come over every day. Such incomprehensible amorous feelings, is it indifferent, or does he not like Concubine Ying at all? If you don't like her, you still have a child with her......

Cen Muling pinched her palm with her fingernails to force herself to be sober, don't think about these useless things. "The Emperor's ......"

"You come with me." Zhuang Chenchen led her through the inner hall to an inconspicuous side room in the back garden.

Seeing the emperor come in, there were busy slaves and maids serving hot tea.

Zhuang Chenchen sat down and let Cen Muning sit beside him. "Do you want to know how I'm going to clean up the man who hurt the green plow?"

"Yes." Cen Muning said unabashedly: "Not only do I want to, but the concubine even wants to beg the emperor to hand over this person and let the concubine fall." ”

"Oh?" Zhuang Chenchen looked sideways and glanced at her: "Then how do you want to fall?" ”

"If he is a person who can be loyal to the emperor and has the ability to be loyal to the emperor, the concubine can only wait for him to be loyal before disposing of it." Cen Muning said truthfully: "But if he is dispensable at all, the concubine will make him worse than death." ”

As soon as the words fell, Yin Li came in with a person.

The man was covered in blood, but his clothes were intact. Thinking that it was for the sake of facing the saint, he deliberately changed into a clean dress.

"Say hello to my master." When the man had said this, he fell to his knees.

Zhuang Chenchen didn't say anything, just looked at Cen Muning.

"Raise your head." Cen Mu frowned and looked at the person kneeling on the ground, his face gloomy and blue.

When the man heard this, he raised his head.

"You took the green plough that night?" Cen Mooning asked.

"Yes." The man replied calmly.

"It's also because of you that Qingli has been missing for several days?" Cen Muning asked again.

"Yes." The other party still didn't quibble, and answered very quickly.

"Then ......" Cen Mu thought for a while, and glanced at the lotus on his skirt with low eyebrows. The moon-white silk thread is mixed with a faint pink, outlining the nobility of the gentleman in the flower who is not stained by the mud. "Watching the car crack."

Yin Lirao was stunned, glanced at the queen in disbelief, and forgot to glance at the master.

Zhuang Yanchen said with a calm face: "The queen has made a decision for me, just do it." ”

"Yes." Yin Li retracted his undeserved expression and prepared to carry the man out.

"The master spares his life, the master spares his life, and the queen spares her subordinates. The subordinates are willing to carry the sedan chair to marry Qingli as a wife, give her the status of a wife, the subordinates will definitely treat Qingli well, the queen begs you to spare your subordinates, and also give Qingli a good future. ”

"Shut up." Cen Mu condensed the fire, and finally couldn't help but vent. "What is a good future, you ruined her happiness for a lifetime, and you are embarrassed to say this to this palace? When you were cruel to her, why didn't you think that she might just die? Now in order to survive, anything can be said casually. You simply want to forgive your sins, you just want to live. If I let Qingli marry you, I might as well kill her directly. ”

Zhuang Chenchen had never seen her so angry. That kind of anger is like trying to burn everything in front of you. Such a weak body, such a clear gaze, turned into a shocking force at this moment, as if she could do anything as long as she wanted.

"Drag people down." Zhuang Chenchen commanded.

Yin Li's elbow struck hard, knocking the begging for mercy unconscious. Dragged him out of the room smoothly.

The moment he opened the door, he saw Qingli standing outside the door, his face full of tears.

"Qingli, why are you here?" Yin Li asked with some concern.

Cen Muning heard him shout Qingli's name and walked out of the wing room quickly. "Qingli, didn't you let you have a good rest and don't have to wait?"

She walked over and shook Qingli's hand: "It's still early, let's go back to sleep again." You don't have to worry about anything else, I've got you covered. ”

"Queen Mother, the slave is fine." Qingli's eyes were staring at the person she hated poisoning. "The slave maid wants to see him being divided by five horses, and she asks the mother to fulfill it."

"Okay." Cen Muning agreed in one bite. "Yin Li, you take her with you. If you have seen it, you have to send her back properly. ”

"Yes." Yin Li immediately agreed.

"Bingling and I will prepare your favorite dishes and wait for you to come back in the palace." Cen Mooning wiped away the tears from her face for her: "There is nothing that cannot be passed." ”

"Thank you, master, thank you for the grace of the queen." Qingli gritted his teeth and followed Yin Li.

Cen Mu Ning closed her eyes, frowned tightly, and held back her tears. It would be nice if a person's death could erase the pain in another person's heart, and make her heart as if it had never been hurt.

Unfortunately, the pain is like a brand, once it is branded, it can never be erased. That's why she was reluctant to use Helian's ointment. She doesn't want to forget that she almost died under her father's whip for revenge, and she doesn't want to let herself forget that her mother's tragic death is a pain in her heart that can never be healed, and only by taking revenge and finding the truth can she be qualified to live for herself.

"Mu Ning......" Zhuang Chenchen called softly in her ear: "You don't have to suppress yourself like this. ”

"The concubine didn't." When Cen Muning opened his eyes, the light under his eyes was still clear. "The concubine only hates herself for being too stupid, and many things are better than solving them when they happen."

"Don't worry, it won't happen again." Zhuang Chenchen stared at her: "I don't allow such an accident again." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The little bird is a human, and she is soft and snuggled in his arms. If he knew that she harbored evil intentions, would he still accept her with such a warm embrace? Maybe she's the one who suffers from the crack.

"It's going to be fine." Zhuang Chenchen gently rubbed her back.
