Chapter 300: Chaos
After changing clothes, Cang Lian led a group of palace servants out of Weiyang Palace.
The strange thing is that the inner chamberlain who came to deliver the decree has disappeared at this time.
"What about people?" She asked the guards guarding the door suspiciously.
"If you go back to the imperial concubine, someone will come to deliver the letter, and the father-in-law is in a hurry to go back to his life. Please also ask the concubine to finish changing her clothes and quickly go to Qingxuan Hall to see the driver. The guards conveyed truthfully.
"Hmm." Cang Lian only nodded: "It's not that something happened." Why is the emperor so anxious? ”
The people behind her are a bunch of wrecks, and serving them on weekdays is silencing. At this time, no one dared to come forward to talk. They all cautiously lowered their heads like stuffy gourds.
"Let's go." Displeased, he walked out of the palace gate, and thought to himself, after this time, he must find a few people who can help to stay and serve. Otherwise, sooner or later there will be new people in the palace, and how much can she keep an eye on alone, someone has to share it.
Originally, the Qingxuan Hall in Weiyang Palace was not far away, but she actually met Concubine Gong halfway, which made her a little strange.
"Concubine Gong didn't mean to wait for the palace here, right?"
Lei Zhen saluted her dignifiedly, and smiled: "What the imperial concubine said is good, the concubine is ready to go to greet you." ”
"Greetings?" Cang Lian curled her lips slightly, and her tone was cool: "You designed to trap the concubines of the harem in the Chunsheng Palace, which is considered to be a bit capable." This palace only cares about you being pregnant, and it is inconvenient to put you under house arrest, so you are allowed to return to Peiyu Palace to have a baby. How? Knowing that something happened in the palace, can't you sit still? Concubine Gong, what kind of benefits should I give you, this palace knows in my heart, but if you want to grab it yourself, it's not appropriate, right? ”
Seeing that the concubine was afraid, Lei Zhen smiled warmly: "Niangniang misunderstood." The concubine did not have such a mind. What's more, now that the queen is gone, the entire harem is under your control, and even if the concubines want to rob it, they don't have the ability. Everyone knows that the emperor has only one in his heart. No matter how stupid the concubine is, she won't even be unable to understand this. ”
"Yes." Cang Lian was skeptical and looked into the other party's eyes: "Then what are you going to do?" ”
"The concubine heard about something." Lei Zhen took a step forward, leaned close to Cang Lian's ear, and whispered: "The woman who fooled Cen Xiang's father and son was rescued on the way to the palace. ”
"What?" When Cang Lianyi heard the news, she couldn't help but feel nervous. But if she thinks about it carefully, if Wen Ying is gone, it will only be good for her. After all, people did not fall into the hands of the emperor. Of course, on the surface, she was a little angry: "Didn't the emperor let Yu Linwei capture it?" How can people still be saved? These minions are becoming more and more unfavorable. ”
"The imperial concubine is angry." Lei Zhen's eyes rolled slightly, and the smile on her face became much brighter: "Why does the concubine think that this matter can be made a fuss." ”
"What do you mean?" Cang looked at her inexplicably.
"If the emperor knew that this woman was abducted by the queen, would you say that the emperor would be furious." Lei Zhen's smile was as cunning as a fox. "The queen mother robbed this person in order to force her to turn back and slander others. exonerate Cen Xiang's father and son and the queen herself. It means that she admits that she knows everything and is personally involved. No matter what kind of relationship she had with the emperor before, the emperor will not allow her to live anymore. ”
"It's a good idea." He said with pity, "But the woman has been saved." How can you blame the queen? Besides, the queen is now in the cold palace, and there is no one who can help except for a servant. said that people were taken away by her, will the emperor believe it? ”
"This depends on the imperial concubine, Niangniang, for your thoughtfulness." Lei Zhen lowered her eyebrows and said: "It's best to get the corpse back, so that the queen can't deny it." As long as the evidence is confirmed, it is impossible for the emperor not to abolish it. ”
Hearing her say this, Cang Lian couldn't help laughing. The laughter was shrill and harsh, and it did not sound very comfortable.
"Does the imperial concubine think that the idea of a concubine is not good?" Lei Zhen asked with a pressed heart.
"You're paying great attention, that's great." Cang Lian smiled and smiled, and suddenly his face turned cold: "It's just that you want to help the palace get rid of the queen, or do you want to take advantage of the fishermen and wipe out the palace and the queen, when I can't hear it?" It is up to me to come forward and go to the emperor, and the person who robbed the important certification halfway is the queen, and then let the queen go to the emperor to make a confession, and push everything onto the palace. I was entangled with the queen and argued, but it was a backwater. At this time, who can't give anyone a fatal blow, and the evidence of the crime will naturally be presented in front of the emperor. Neither I nor the Queen can be left alone. It's not like you're up in this palace. Concubine Gong, you are not stupid, and others are not stupid, do you think your mind can't be seen in this palace? ”
Lei Zhen shook her head again and again, and her face became a little pale: "To this day, does the imperial concubine still distrust the concubine?" The concubine was originally the person next to the queen mother, and the queen mother went against the queen mother as soon as she entered the palace, and by the way, even the concubines did not have good fruit to eat. Later, if it weren't for the queen's lonely palm, she couldn't deal with the imperial concubine, and then I remembered that there was such a person as a concubine, who could distract you from it, but I was afraid that the concubine was still trapped in the Peiyu Palace, how could there be today's day. The imperial concubine may not trust the concubine, but the concubine is a nobleman, as long as you are well, the concubine will naturally be fine. What's more, to tell the truth, the concubines are not valued by the emperor at all, and their only favor depends on the child in the womb. Even if the queen is removed, it is beneficial to the concubines, but what will the concubines use to compete with you? ”
"You know that." Cang Lian didn't bother to talk to her any more: "What you said, this palace will naturally think about it." You, it's better to hurry back to Peiyu Hall to have a good baby, don't think about what you have. ”
"The concubine obeys." Lei Zhen saluted her respectfully, and after seeing her leave, she turned around and returned to the Peiyu Palace.
The silver branch beside him was a little aggrieved, and asked with a sour nose: "Why did Niangniang bother to please the imperial concubine, she made it clear that she didn't trust you." ”
"Naturally, she doesn't trust me, so how can I trust her." Lei Zhen smiled faintly: "But the situation has become like this, I don't want to please her, I can only wait for her to clean me up." Fortunately, the previous foundation was very good, after all, I did not violate her interests for my own interests, and I helped her several times. Now that there is no one around her who has benefited, and even such important news can only be conveyed by me, how could she be stupid enough to deal with me first. After all, it can be used. ”
Yinzhi nodded: "That's what Niangniang said." The slave maid just feels sorry for her mother, and she has to think about these things when she is pregnant, which is really hard. ”
"It's not hard to say it's hard." Lei Zhen stroked her abdomen and hooked her lips slightly: "Actually, I didn't expect to have today." But now that we've come this far, we have to keep moving forward. For the sake of this child, and for myself. ”
It has been her long-cherished wish to become the woman beside Zhuang Chen.
"Let's go back to the palace." Lei Zhen returned to Peiyu Hall with the hand of the silver branch, and only then entered the door of the inner room, and a long sword was attached to her cold skin.
"Ahh Silverbranch exclaimed in fright, but as soon as she exclaimed, she quickly shut her mouth, not daring to make any more noise. I was afraid that the long sword would cut Concubine Gong's throat in an instant.
Lei Zhen was calm and calm, smiling at people: "My heart is too heavy, I patronize and think about the situation in the palace, but I don't even notice that there are people in the room." But you too. Anyway, I saved your life in the past, even if you don't know how to repay your kindness, you shouldn't repay virtue with resentment, right? ”
Chu Peiyuan's tone was cold, and there was no warmth on his face: "You connived at that slut to harm the queen's family, is it possible that I still want to thank you?" ”
"Why do you blame me?" Lei Zhen said unhappily: "Since I saved you, since you recovered and were able to walk out of Peiyu Palace, how many days have passed, do you remember?" On the battlefield of Zhongnan, in this quiet deep palace, how many times have you had the opportunity to poison the people you resented in your heart, haven't you counted them yourself? Every day, every time, it is you who insist on giving up the opportunity to give others the opportunity to kill the queen step by step. The Cen family is just a funeral object for her resentful queen. Who does the government belong to, to put it bluntly, what does it have to do with us women. What we want is just to become the most beautiful one and the only beautiful one by our husband's side. ”
"Less nonsense." Chu Peiyuan hung in his heart, and his tone was slightly cold: "Say, why did the emperor capture the father and son of the Cen family into the palace?" Why was the queen sent to the cold palace? ”
"When I finish speaking, it is estimated that the queen's head has fallen." Lei Zhen smiled contemptuously: "Dare you not know anything these days, and you are drunk and unable to extricate yourself from the past?" ”
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Chu Peiyuan was angered by her: "If it weren't for the fact that you were pregnant with Liujia, I wouldn't have been polite to you." But Concubine Gong, don't really think that I don't dare to do anything to you. When you shielded me and saved my life, maybe the emperor wouldn't pursue this matter, but the imperial concubine you wanted to get closer to was different. If she knew that the whole thing was from you, would she immediately order you to end up with the queen? ”
"You...... Vile! Lei Zhen was poked in the sore spot by him, and couldn't help frowning: "Okay, since you want to know, then I will tell you clearly." Cen Xiang's father and son were killed by a woman, and I heard that it had something to do with the border. It's just that on the way to the palace, he was left. So I don't know the identity of this woman yet. But from the reaction of the concubine today, I can judge that this woman should have a great deal to do with the concubine. If you can take the first step, find the person, and come up with evidence to prove the innocence of Cen Xiang's father and son, then the queen will naturally be safe and sound. In the affairs of the palace, it was Xin Concubine who accused the queen of attacking the dragonborn. But Concubine Xin has never been the emperor's favorite person, and if she didn't have the imperial concubine to support her, she wouldn't be able to set off the storm. In the end, it's still you who blame you for not cutting the grass and eradicating the roots early. Otherwise, we'll all be safe and sound now. ”
"Wow, then I'll go cut the grass and eradicate the roots." As soon as the blade of the sword turned, Chu Peiyuan retracted the scabbard: "You'd better stay here." Don't think about it anymore. Otherwise, even if you had saved me, I would not have allowed you to do evil. Gong Concubine, climbing from the servant to here, only you know the difficulties best. Whether you want to give up your future and that of your children for the sake of so-called power, you weigh it yourself. ”
He turned away, his steps light.
Lei Zhen took a deep breath and slowly spit it out: "Yinzhi, go get the fetal pill." How can I be scratching like a cat in my heart, strange and restless. I'm really afraid that the current peace will collapse in an instant, and the palace is not peaceful, how can our mother and son be peaceful? ”
