Chapter 183: Cattle Knife
In the prison, there was a strong musty smell. Even in winter, the smell is choking.
Cen Muning and his party walked into the dark prison in the depths, lit the lamp, and saw Chu Peiyuan sitting in the corner of the cell. He sat cross-legged with his upper body straight, looking extraordinarily focused. Although he was in a prison cell, he still did not lose his general's bearing. No matter how you look at it, it's a comfortable position.
"Youbu is on the cheap, and Weichen is tired of the queen." Although he didn't open his eyes and smell a faint fragrance, he knew who it was. "It's just that Weichen has been locked up for so many days, why did the queen mother think about coming over at this time? Could it be that you want to be a micro-minister? ”
Wearing a thick cloak, he was a little inflexible when he walked into the cell.
Before Cen Muning could speak, Chu Peiyuan laughed. "Are you afraid that people will see you so tightly? If you are so afraid, why do you want to come again? ”
"I'm here to tell you that I've found out Qu Yu's identity." Cen Mu Ning said this peacefully.
Qu Yu ...... You remembered her name! Chu Peiyuan's brows tightened, and his face became more and more gloomy: "You've already seen her, haven't you?" ”
"Not really." Cen Muning sighed softly: "Actually, I can't remember her name all the time." On the way here, I didn't remember it. But seeing you sitting like this, those two words suddenly flashed in my mind, and I finally remembered that her name was Qu Yu. You said that meeting her is the happiest thing in your life. ”
"Where the hell is she?" Chu Peiyuan frowned, and his tone was a little cold. "Tell me, where the hell is she? Why did the Queen Mother's people want to kill Bingling and take her away, and they still have to blame you? Queen Mother, what the hell is going on? ”
"I'm here to tell you the whole thing." Cen Mooning glanced behind him.
Bingling and Qingli retreated with a tacit understanding, and at the same time dismissed the redundant people in this prison.
"Queen Mother......" didn't know what was going on, Chu Peiyuan's heart was a little suffocated. He obviously wanted to know the reason for this matter, but at this moment, his brain was a little heavy, and he seemed to be unable to control himself.
He propped himself up and walked up to the queen with a pitiful look. "Queen Mother, we are also close relatives. When I was a child, you often came to the house with your aunt, and we almost grew up together. I'm an older brother, and I protected you a lot when I was young. Now that you have become a high-ranking queen mother, can you protect your brother once? Queen Mother, don't worry about anything else, I can not be a general, I can ...... I can leave the Chu family, leave the court, leave the hustle and bustle here, as long as you tell me where Qu Yu is, you tell me where she is, let me go to her, help me this time, okay? ”
Speaking of excitement, he grabbed Cen Muning's sleeve, which should be the position of his wrist.
Cen Muling didn't move, and the thick clothes wrapped her in extra concealment. Except for a pair of smart eyes, I can't see anything else.
Chu Peiyuan frowned and looked at her, his brows became tighter and tighter: "Queen Mother, Weichen begs you......"
Suddenly, his body shook, and before Cen Muning could react to what was going on, he was heavily pressed to the ground.
Because the clothes are thicker and because the floor of the cell is full of straw, even if two people fall on the ground, they don't make a special sound, and they don't hurt.
At this time, however, others were in prison.
Bingling and Qingli were feeling that something was wrong, and a familiar voice had appeared in front of them.
"Master." Qingli hurriedly saluted: "You...... What's wrong with it? ”
Zhuang Yanchen didn't bother to look at her, and walked straight inside, but the scene he saw was worth scrutinizing.
Bingling followed and glanced inside, and was immediately stunned. "This ...... This is...... Chu Peiyuan, you are so bold, you dare to offend ......"
"Chu Peiyuan." Zhuang Chen's tone was cold and warm: "Are you going to rebel?" ”
Chu Peiyuan's brain is still clear, but it seems that he can't control his soft body. I tried to struggle to stand up several times, but I couldn't do it. "The Emperor forgives ...... sins"
Finally, the man under him kicked him in the stomach. This kick was indeed not light, Chu Peiyuan was kicked away, and fell to the ground on all fours, and his painful face changed color.
"Cen Muning", who had been suppressed for a long time, stood up at this time, took off the cloak covering his head, and revealed his true face.
Ling Yechen was slightly surprised, and looked at her with staring eyes: "It's you?" ”
"The emperor forgives the sins." Bingling bent her knees at her: "The slave maid is according to Niangniang's orders, pretending to be Niangniang to meet General Chu at night." ”
At this time, Cen Muning, who was standing with Qingli, walked over quickly: "The emperor forgives the sin, the concubine just exchanged clothes with Bingling, I didn't expect such a big misunderstanding." But it's also a loss to exchange clothes. The dignified queen, in the middle of the night, was pressed by the general in the prison, this picture fell into the eyes of the emperor, it may not be just a rebellion. ”
Without waiting for Zhuang Chenchen to speak, she walked in front of Chu Peiyuan with an arrow step.
"Chu Peiyuan, you are still a general. Soldiers don't get tired of cheating, don't you know? The food was drugged and he didn't even know it. Cen Muning didn't give him a good look: "A woman will abolish all your martial arts and wipe out your fighting spirit." How can the Chu family have unscrupulous descendants like you. If I were you, born as a man, I would inevitably have to fight bloodily for the court and the Chu family, and I would never live in the world like you. ”
After collecting her emotions, Cen Mooning gently returned to the emperor and smiled at him. It seems that the one who scolded Chu Peiyuan just now is not the same person at all as a little bird like now. The two emotions are extremely fast and natural, which makes people a little unbearable.
Zhuang Chenchen looked at her dressed as a palace maid, frowned and said, "What are you making trouble again?" ”
"Where do the concubines dare to make trouble, they just want to prove one thing." Cen Muning smiled slightly: "Someone sent news to the concubine, and there was a purpose for the concubine to meet General Chu Shao at night." It seems that the concubine's guess is completely correct. ”
Bingling served Cen Muning every day, and it was not difficult to learn to imitate her body and voice. In addition, the dungeon was dimly lit, and Chu Peiyuan was not clear-headed, so it was not surprising that she was mistaken for the queen.
"Who is so bold?" Zhuang Chenchen asked with a frown.
The concubine couldn't say clearly for a while. However, this person has now been taken by the concubines and detained in the Fengling Palace, and the emperor will be able to find out if he asks in person. Cen Mooning smiled slightly. She was sure of that. In order to prevent Liu Shun from committing suicide, she asked Bingling to pour him with drugs, and at this time he was still sleeping in a daze.
"Then go to the Queen's Palace." Zhuang Chenchen leaned close to her ear and frowned, "Why do I think that you are changing your tricks to let me accompany you?" ”
"The emperor said so, and the concubines can be wronged." Cen Muning pursed her lips: "It's late in the middle of the night, isn't it good to sleep peacefully?" Tossing this out, Concubine Qi Min's sister still blames the concubine for being the queen, not caring for the concubine, and thinking about competing for favor. ”
"Isn't that it?" Zhuang Chenchen stretched out his hand and hugged Cen Muning's waist.
There was some resistance in his heart, he had just spoken softly beside others, and suddenly warmed up with himself, which was not a good feeling.
Cen Muning quietly walked out of his mantis arm, looked serious, and said, "Your Majesty, without further ado, strike while the iron is hot." ”
"Drive the Fengling Palace." Zhuang Chenchen commanded Liang Bao on the side.
Qingli and Bingling accompanied the queen to the phoenix chariot and followed the emperor's chariot.
"Niangniang, who did you say gave the medicine to Major General Chu?" Bingling asked in a low voice.
Cen Mu Ning shook his head, feeling indescribable.
"It doesn't seem to be the Queen Mother." Qingli said bluntly: "If it is the queen mother, she can also say that she is poor in donkey skills." Even if you want to wronged Niangniang, you have someone else in your heart and are disloyal to the emperor, you won't choose Chu Peiyuan...... Everyone knows that he is now detained in the prison, which is equivalent to being under the nose of the master, and if he does this too blindly, he will definitely not succeed. ”
"yes." Bingling nodded approvingly: "It's not the Queen Mother, is it ...... Min Fei? ”
"How can you be suspicious of Concubine Min?" Cen Muning was a little curious.
"It's Niangniang, you insist on letting Concubine Min manage the harem for you, I heard that the people in front of you think that Concubine Min is more trusted, and the more powerful she is. The number of people who go to Concubine Min's mother's house every day has increased several times. Bingling thought so, so he said: "Concubine Min has been pushed to the forefront, presumably the emperor only waits for the opportunity to extinguish this fire, just to set an example for the people behind." But Concubine Min must also understand this, if she understands, she must have a grudge against Niangniang in her heart. ”
"And that's a natural thing." Qingli frowned and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, if this is really done by Concubine Min, then she will use her own future to compete with you." The master didn't like Concubine Min's mother's style, so he would inevitably be harsh at all. I'm afraid, I'm afraid, there are other reasons for this......"
Qing Li will think more, also because of the figure of the assassin. I don't know why, she has been feeling uneasy since that night.
Cen Muning was thinking that at this time, the emperor hurriedly came out of Concubine Min's palace and went to her Fengling Palace...... What would Min Fei think? What is she doing at this time?
The night breeze is slightly cool, and Yang Yunbi is not the only one who can't be peaceful.
Cang Lian stood on the high sky, looked at Yin Li who was in a daze on the side, and frowned: "I can't complain that the queen mother is afraid of the queen deeply, it turns out that the queen is really not to be underestimated." ”
"If you want to see the emperor, just go directly, why do you have to do so many tricks?" Yin Li said dissatisfiedly: "Aren't you afraid of provoking fire?" ”
"Looks like you're really not happy with me coming back." Cang Lian turned her head and glanced at him. "Yin Li, I remind you one last time, don't forget what you have done. Also, my fight with the queen has just begun, this time it's just a small test, you see, the queen's throne will be mine sooner or later. ”
