Chapter 131: Family
The queen looked gentle and dignified, but she didn't expect that she was not inferior to her master.
Yin Li lowered his eyebrows and smiled lightly, and his tone was cold and forceful: "Could it be that the queen mother resented her subordinates, so she hid the green plough and planted the blame?" ”
"You don't talk nonsense here and slander the queen, I'm afraid you can't afford to be guilty." Bingling's patience was also at its limit, and she wanted to get up and drop his head with a knife.
"Okay." Cen Mu Ning sighed: "I have already given you a chance, since you don't appreciate it, then don't blame this palace for leaving no room for things." ”
When Cen Muning's words fell, a guard walked into the hall and quickly tied up Yin Li.
The way they tie up is very special. It's not a big deal. Instead, he tied Yin Li's legs, and then firmly fixed his arms on the tied legs, so that his whole person presented a particularly stiff posture, and his entire chest and abdomen were attached to the ground and could not move.
Yin Li had never tried such an embarrassment.
"Speaking of grievances, it seems that this palace has never seen you, let alone offended. Why has it become a thorn in your side, this palace is also very curious. But now, you don't have to say anything, it's not too late to wait for the emperor to come and make the decision. ”
Almost as Bingling plugged Yin Li's mouth with a rag, Liang Bao's voice sounded outside the hall.
Zhuang Chenchen quickly stepped into the inner hall, looking confused: "What's going on?" ”
Cen Muning walked down with Bingling's hand and saluted him upright. The posture is as dignified and feminine as ever, but it takes more effort than usual to maintain. Her legs fluttered, and her whole body seemed to be stepping on cotton, as if she was going to fall down at any moment.
"Your Majesty, Qingli disappeared last night, and the concubine suspected that she had disappeared after she went to see Yin Li. So much so that before getting up early to go to the court, the concubines first went to the emperor's Qingxuan Palace. But at that time, the concubine didn't have any reason, and she didn't want to disturb the emperor's political affairs because of the disappearance of the maid around her, so she didn't say it directly. Now the emperor is tired of coming over, because he wants to make one thing clear. ”
Zhuang Chenchen looked at her eyes and wondered, "Is the queen suspicious?" ”
"Huang Sang is half right, but not all of them." Cen Mu Ning stiffened her face, and her tone was extremely serious: "The concubine is not suspicious, but sure that this person is not Yin Li." ”
"What ......" Bing Lingrao was stunned, looking at the person tied to the ground in disbelief.
"Bingling, go get a basin of warm water." Cen Mu Ning said firmly: "Only by dipping his face in the water, he will get the answer after a while." ”
Where did Bingling dare to delay, a gust of wind seemed to bring in a basin of warm water from the ear room. He soaked Yin Li's face into the basin of water.
Because Yin Li's hands were tied behind his legs, that posture couldn't be resisted. He didn't want to run away, his neck was desperately stiff, and it hurt terribly.
"Your Majesty, please take a closer look." Cen Muning took off the hosta on her sideburns and let Bingling pull Yin Li's bun. She used the tail of the hosta, which was not very sharp but enough to make a difference, and gently picked it along the wing of Yin Li's nose. After picking an opening, Bingling directly tore a layer of skin off Yin Li's face.
When his true face was revealed, Cen Muning was also so shocked that she almost bit her tongue.
"Cen Mufeng? How could it be you? ”
Bingling was also so shocked that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Wasn't the eldest young master sent to the sidelines? How could he appear next to the emperor in disguise? Even if it appeared, why did she bite Miss so hard, after all, it was a family, how could it be like this?
"Hmph." Zhuang Chenchen snorted with interest: "This is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple." Queen, don't you even recognize your own brother? ”
"Your Majesty, he is the brother of the concubine, but he is not a relative." Cen Muning's tone was slightly cold: "The most regrettable thing in my father's life is that he doesn't have a son-in-law. He is just a concubine born of the second aunt's wife. ”
"Uh-huh......" Cen Mufeng, whose mouth was gagged, struggled desperately, his eyes were round and big, and he wanted to kill Cen Muning.
"Your Majesty, the concubine really wants to know how he got into the palace and how he replaced Yin Li to serve by your side. And these days, he has covered it up so well, and he has not been able to let the emperor find out at all, this person must not be simple. Bao Qi, he was used by people with ulterior motives, and even did not hesitate to use the emperor's power to murder his concubines. When Cen Muning said this, his tone was quite cold, without the slightest temperature. The concubine even suspected that the accident encountered by the concubine was also caused by him, and even the current false rumors in the palace were also caused by him. Such a person categorically can't be let go so easily, and the concubine begged the emperor to send him to the prison, and tortured his words and deeds, he must ask the truth. ”
As soon as these two people met, they were tense. It shows that the relationship was not very good in the past.
Zhuang Chenchen was slightly contemplative, but nodded very lightly: "Just do what the queen says." ”
"Yes." Liang Bao hurriedly summoned someone to come, and used a pole to pass through the rope that tied Cen Mufeng, and the two guards carried one end each, and quickly carried him away from the inner hall.
At this time, the cold sweat on Cen Muning's back spine slowly flowed down. She never thought that this person would be her brother. What the hell is going on?
"The queen's face is not very good." Zhuang Chenchen walked over and shook her hand. "Your hands are so cold, your palms are covered with cold sweat, are you okay?"
"Thank you for the emperor's care, the concubines stayed up all night because they were worried about Qingli. I don't know why the person who was arrested as a suspect turned out to be Cen Mufeng. As she spoke, she covered her chest with her other hand, gasping slightly. It's all the concubines who are not good, which makes the emperor worried. ”
"When I came, I had already ordered people to go around looking for the green plow. The queen can rest assured. As for Cen Mufeng, I will interrogate him in detail, and I will definitely not wronged him, nor will I condone him. After Zhuang Chenchen said this, he simply hugged Cen Mu Ning. Look at you like this, your face looks whiter than paper, but your cheeks are red with anger. Instead of seeing the beauty of the red plum reflecting the snow, I feel sorry for the sin you have suffered. The guy named Helian can't do it with medical skills? How can I see that after so many days of healing, the wound on my head is healed, but my body is weak. ”
"A money-grubbing man is arrogant about his medical skills." Cen Muning really didn't like Helian, so he said, "It's good to change him." The concubine didn't like people like him to serve around him. ”
"It's going to be changed, but not at the moment." Zhuang Chenchen carried her into the inner room and placed her on the bed. "I have three chapters of the law with him, and I must not interfere with how he treats you. Until he heals you, I must not change or interfere with it at will. What's more, the prescription he prescribes doesn't have to be seen by the hospital. ”
"......" Cen Muning looked puzzled: "What method did he use to move the emperor?" The emperor actually gave him such grace. ”
"Because when I am helpless, only he can save you." Zhuang Chenchen pinched the tip of her small nose and frowned: "In those days, I came every day, and I am here to accompany you when I come." It's really unpleasant to watch you fall asleep and you can't hear you talking. ”
He simply took off his boots and carried her into the fluffy quilt. "Is it cold?"
Cen Muning was hugged by him like this, and she was no longer cold. "It's because the concubine is too negligent that she will be framed."
"The people around me have been replaced, and I haven't noticed it. Some negligence is also unavoidable. Zhuang Chenchen looked at her slightly reddened eyes and asked suspiciously: "I didn't even realize that he was not Yin Li, how did you find out?" Is it because he shows resentment and resentment towards you? Or is there something else going on? ”
"The emperor doesn't know anything, in fact, Yin Li has never treated his concubines very well. The concubines are used to it. Recently, things in the palace are all directed at the concubines, even if Yin Li's attitude is more harsh, it is not enough to arouse suspicion. Cen Muning gasped: "The reason why the concubine noticed it was because she went to face the saint this morning. The emperor was busy with the court, but he was still worried about his concubines, and ordered him to send his concubines back to the palace. When he walked down the jade steps, the concubine almost fell, but he subconsciously helped the concubine, but when he was a little closer, the concubine actually smelled a fragrance of osmanthus on his body. ”
"The scent of osmanthus?" Zhuang Chenchen was a little puzzled: "It's autumn now, and osmanthus flowers are blooming everywhere. What's wrong with this floral scent? What's more, the palace has always used this kind of flower to make porridge and make pastries, maybe it is because of the food. ”
"Your Majesty, Yin Li has served you for many years, how have you ever worn a sachet?" Cen Mu smiled warmly: "When I was in the house, Qingli embroidered a sachet for Yin Li, don't let him return it intact." He also said that he hated the fragrance of flowers on his body the most, saying that it was not conducive to hiding. How could such a cautious person become so careless after entering the palace. ”
Zhuang Chenchen still has a mystery in his heart: "That's the case. But even so, how did the queen know how to remove the mask? ”
"That's thanks to my mother's story." Cen Mooning smiled and said: "When I was a child, my mother always liked to tell me stories, she said that there is a very well-fitting human skin mask, which can be worn every day, but it is rarely recognized, but the method of removing it must be soaked in warm water and picked from the nose...... I don't know why, the concubine just thought of it today, but I didn't expect that there really was such a mask in this world. ”
"Maybe there is a master in the dark." Zhuang Chenchen took her in his arms: "You're tired too, just sleep like this." ”
"The concubine is sick, and I'm afraid that I will give the emperor a sick breath." Cen Muning didn't know why, and suddenly felt that his belated companionship was not as effective as it was at that time. "The emperor is strong, and he may not be sick if he is contaminated, but Concubine Ying's body is weak...... Hmmm......"
His strong and domineering kiss caught him off guard. Cen Muning frowned, and she didn't have the strength to struggle.
"I know, I don't want to see Concubine Ying." Zhuang Chenchen brushed away her somewhat messy shredded hair, and her slender fingers gently brushed away the cold sweat from her forehead. "Is it right here with you?"
"Okay." Cen Mu Ning closed her eyes, but a terrible thought flashed in her mind. If it wasn't for his instructions, how could Cen Mufeng pretend to be Yin Li?
But why did he do it? She really couldn't see through it.
