Cen Yun glanced at the concubine and didn't continue.

Cen Muning looked at Cang Lian with a very indifferent look: "What evidence do you want this palace to come up with to prove that this matter has nothing to do with this palace?" Or is it that no matter whether there is another mystery in this matter, you have recognized that the palace is colluding with the mother's family, colluding with the borderlands, and vainly trying to betray the emperor and the court? ”

The queen asked so, but the concubine didn't know how to answer. As if he couldn't understand it, he looked bitter and hateful. "The emperor has always been very kind to the queen's mother, and even tolerated the rebellious Chu family because of the mother. whitewashed the peace for the queen mother, and saved the Chu family. With this affection alone, Niangniang should not let Cen Xiangfu repeat the mistakes of the past. The concubines have not been able to serve the emperor for many years, and now they are envious when they think about it. Niangniang, you can become the most important woman around the emperor, from the Ruiming Palace to the deep palace, what is there about the emperor who can't stop you? Why is this person who betrayed the court ...... you?"

"There's no way she could betray the court." Cen Yun gritted his teeth and glared at Cang Lian with a reluctant look: "It is even more impossible to conspire with Cen Xiangfu." ”

"Why?" Mercy turned and made eye contact with him. "The love of parents is far-reaching......"

"That's enough." Cen Muning interrupted Cang Lian's words, and her tone was slightly cold: "You are turning it over and over, all of which are emphasizing that this palace and your mother's family conspired to commit treason. The ashes you hold in your hands are nothing more than what you have found yourself from the firewood room. Can the same thing be found in the Cen Prime Minister's Mansion now? ”

"This concubine doesn't know." Cang Lian turned to look at Zhuang Chen: "I have to ask the emperor to make it clear." ”

"I intercepted several letterheads sent from Chu's mansion. It's all like that. Zhuang Chenchen was slightly displeased, but he was not angry. May I ask the emperor, it's the same as these in the palace. Is it written in the text of the borderlands? Cen Mooning frowned and asked.

"Not really." Zhuang Chenchen frowned slightly: "It's a document of this dynasty." ”

Cang Lian was a little confused. "What does the queen mean by that? Isn't it possible to convey a message on ordinary letterhead? Do you have to use the words of the borderlands? ”

"yes." Cen Muning also hooked her lips: "Can't ordinary words convey news?" Is it the kind of text you find in the firewood room that can convey the message? ”

The two of them looked at each other, and Cen Mu condensed an ice cream.

Bingling stepped forward, saluted the emperor, and then picked up a piece of paper that had not yet been burned.

"What are you doing?" Cang Lian couldn't help but worry, and stepped forward to stop her.

"Don't be afraid, the imperial concubine. Slaves and maids will not swallow your so-called evidence and destroy the corpse in front of everyone's eyes. Bingling stared and said: "The emperor doesn't know that the queen mother has developed a habit when she entered the Ruiming Palace. There are a lot of spirit snakes in the Ruiming Palace, and there are always cases of getting lost from time to time. If these poisonous snakes are hidden in bookshelves or picture scrolls, they are not easy to be discovered, and it is not good to hurt people. Therefore, in the ink used by Niangniang, some realgar will be added to it. If the imperial concubine doesn't believe it, you can find the imperial doctor to come and verify. There must be no realgar in the ink on this piece of paper, and there must be it in the booklets and danqing written by all the mothers in the Fengling Palace. ”

Cang Lian moved her lower lip slightly, but she didn't rush to speak.

"The imperial concubine doesn't want to say that this letterhead was sent into the palace from outside, not from the queen's mother's handwriting, right?" Bing Ling's face was cold, and his tone was slightly cold. "If you want to say that, then the slave maid should ask you, how did you send people to keep an eye on the Fengling Hall these days. All the people around the queen mother have been removed, when can't such a letterhead be burned, and it has to wait for Yu Linwei to search the palace, and the slave and maid hide in the firewood room to burn? Also, your people and Yu Linwei are both looking at the Fengling Palace, how can anyone still send the letterhead in? Isn't that weird? With the evidence that someone sent the letterhead, it's not too late for you to accuse the mother of treason. ”

"Your Majesty, do you want to ask someone to check this ink?" Cen Muning asked at the right time.

"Not necessarily." Zhuang Chen's tone was affirmative: "What kind of ink do you are used to, I don't know." ”

"Yes, the emperor knows it, but the imperial concubine doesn't know." Bing Ling's resentful eyes glared at Cang Lian stiffly. "Imperial concubine, since you said this, the slave really wants to ask you, where did you find this ash from the firewood room? Is it in the stove, or in the medicine stove, or in the stove for boiling water? ”

"Your Majesty." Cang Lian said a little angrily: "The thing was obviously searched from the Fengling Palace, how can the concubine blame the queen." You know, the concubines have no family since they were young, and the queen mother trained the concubines, and what she taught was nothing more than some examples of rules, poems and songs. The concubines don't know this kind of writing at all, and even if they want to write it and burn it, it's too late to ......."

When these words came out, Cang Lian immediately understood. A pair of eyes stared at the queen vigilantly: "The concubine understands." It turns out that the queen deliberately left evidence for her concubines. Mother, your trick to lure the snake out of the hole is really ingenious. ”

"Imperial Concubine." Cen Muning glanced at her: "The lost person of the bead string is you." The one who avoids all of us and returns to the Phoenix Ling Hall is also you. Yu Linwei has already searched the entire Fengling Palace, why didn't they find these ashes, but you can easily take the incriminating evidence and present it to the emperor. Now, you are instead blaming the main palace and saying that the main palace led the snake out of the hole, isn't it ridiculous? ”

When the words fell, Cen Mooning didn't give her a chance to ridicule her, and arched her hand at the emperor: "Please also ask the emperor to uphold justice for the concubine, the concubine is suspicious now, and the person who colludes with the border behind her back is the imperial concubine." Inevitably, there was some negligence, and the concubine implored the emperor to order a search of Weiyang Palace to set the record straight. ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't ......" Although Cang Lian was angry, she still pretended to be weak. The queen is simply ......"

Cen Mooning raised her eyebrows slightly: "Imperial concubine ......"

"Queen." Zhuang Chenchen followed and interrupted Cen Muning's words.

"Your Majesty." Cen Mooning turned to look at him: "What do you command?" ”

"Although I decreed that I would be crowned as the imperial concubine, the Internal Affairs Bureau did not arrange a canonization ceremony. Nor has she heard your teachings. Now it is inappropriate to call her the imperial concubine. Zhuang Chenchen's words were to reassure her.

Sure enough, Cen Muning felt a ray of warmth from him, and the smile on his lips couldn't be hidden for a moment. "The emperor's lesson is that it was the concubines who were negligent."

"The Emperor...... Emperor. Pale Pity's face alternated red and white. It's all at this time, the emperor still has the heart to say such a thing, does he really believe the queen?

"The queen's Fengling Palace can still be searched, but the concubine's Weiyang Palace can't." Zhuang Chenchen raised his chin slightly, frowned and said, "Yin Li, you personally take someone there." ”

"Yes." These days, there is no such comfortable errand. Yin Li suddenly felt better.

"The station has also been stationed, and it has been said, and you must be tired." Zhuang Chenchen frowned slightly: "I will go to change clothes first, come to people, have some food and fragrant tea, and let them rest for a while." ”

"Congratulations to the emperor." Cen Mooning saluted him, but did not follow.

But Cang Lian is in a dilemma. Should she follow the emperor to change her clothes, or stay where she is to monitor Cen Xiang's father and son to collude with the queen, or should she go back to her Weiyang Palace to take a look, lest someone plant and blame the blame.

Just when he was hesitating, Zhuang Chenlin came out and said, "Concubine, how can I remember that you are also proficient in border writing?" It seems that I have taught you before. ”

"Your Majesty, no, the concubine was young at that time, and she had long forgotten about ......it" Cang Pian glared at the queen unwillingly, and followed after the emperor.

In the inner sanctum, her voice can still be heard.

It was Cen Muning, who walked down calmly, facing Cen Yun, with a serious face. "You tried to say it twice, but I stopped you. It's been so long since your mother died, do you still want her to be upset? ”

Cen Yun was questioned by her like this, and he was immediately annoyed: "Queen Mother, haven't you seen it yet?" Why is the Cen Prime Minister's Mansion suffering today? Isn't it the turmoil you caused in order to compete for favor, suppress concubines, and control power? Do you want to look at the hundreds of lives in the Cen Xiang Mansion, and you will be satisfied with the loss of life? Why can't the old man tell the truth? ”

"What is the truth?" Cen Muning gritted her teeth: "That's all your wishful thinking and self-righteousness." ”

"You're self-righteous." Cen Yun shouted in a very deplorable voice: "Your mother admitted it herself, otherwise do you think I am willing to think so?" ”

"Mother would never do anything to be sorry for you. She is so angry with you that she will not choose to speak. Cen Muning's angry pupils were irrepressible anger, and her burning heart trembled. You can deny me, you can even kill me, but you can't throw dirty water on your mother. Don't try to use this excuse to justify that I will not conspire with you, I tell you, as long as I have a breath of air, you will not want to burden my mother with such a stigma. ”

She trembled with anger, but there was nothing she could do. If the person on the other side was not Cen Yun, she would have let Bingling stab him to death with a sword.

"Do you think you can cover her up?" Cen Yun took a long time to say this.

"I didn't hide it. It's a fact. Cen Mooning took a step closer and looked into his eyes: "Do you think I'm your daughter?" Why did I marry into the Ruiming Mansion in the first place, don't you know better than me? ”

"You're crazy to say such things here!" Cen Yun was frightened by her, and his face turned faintly blue.

"You're scared too?" Why Cen Muning married into the Ruiming Palace, Zhuang Xianchen knows. It's a pity that this father who planned this didn't know that it was no secret between her and the emperor.

"What to fear!" Cen Yun said with a tense face: "Queen Mother, if you can't avoid this catastrophe, no one should think about it." ”

"I'll tell you too." Cen Muning said with hatred: "If you make your mother uneasy, even if you can escape this catastrophe, I will pull you on my back." ”
