Chapter 27 The scheme takes effect
A day later, there was an earth-shattering movement in the palace, and it is said that two palace maids accidentally fell into the lake of the harem yesterday, and there was green smoke rising in the lake.
By the time someone rescued them, they had burned to the surface of darkness, just like the stone statues in the burial forest, resulting in one death and one serious injury.
Originally, the stone statue of the burial concubine forest was already shocking enough to burn under the soil, and now two living palace maids burned underwater.
Some people also said that the medical officer had already woken up the seriously injured palace maid at that time, but the palace maid was already frightened when she woke up, and she would not say a second sentence except that Concubine Jiang knew witchcraft and asked the emperor to arrest her.
Later, it was said that the maid had lost her footing again this morning and drowned in the lake.
Everything is dark and terrifying under the control of someone with a heart, and I don't know who is rumoring that these two palace maids had come to my appreciation house before the accident.
I stayed in the room patiently embroidering the picture of the tiger descending the mountain in my hand, and listened to the big mandarin duck telling the story on the beams of the house.
Suddenly, she stopped talking, and the room fell silent, except for the faint sound of my needle and thread being reversed, except for a series of light footsteps.
I raised my eyes slightly and looked out of the door, only to see Xiaohuan happily holding a basket, running in front of me, and said, "Niangniang, do you know? Yin Ji's palace maid Xiaoyu just sent a basket of pastries. ”
She opened the basket, with a happy feeling of revenge between her eyebrows, and I raised my eyes to look at the pastry chef in the basket, and then said: "Xiaoyu and Yin Zhaoyi's message for the slave maid to bring to you, saying that Yin Zhaoyi is very grateful for the promotion of the mother in front of the emperor, if you need help in the future, just go to Yin Zhaoyi." ”
She said with her eyebrows fluttering, but when she talked about Yin Zhaoyi, she pursed her lips again, and said disdainfully: "But look at the slave, that Yin Zhaoyi is afraid of Niangniang's prestige, she is originally a timid and afraid of things, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, she must be worried that Niangniang's witchcraft will ruin her future, so she sent two plates of pastries to pat her ass, hum, Niangniang's kindness to her, which two plates of pastries can pass the matter?" ”
The embroidery work in my hand slowly hung down on my knees, and I watched Xiaohuan almost finish what I had to say, and then asked incorrectly: "Xiaohuan, how long have you been with this palace?" ”
My words were cold, and compared with Xiaohuan's excited mood, it was obviously auspicious for heaven and earth.
Xiaohuan didn't expect me to ask like this suddenly, ahhh ”
She still didn't understand what I wanted to say, in fact, what I wanted to say was that Xiaohuan had been with me for a while, even if she pretended, she should have figured out my personality, and she would pretend to be a person according to the personality I liked.
The reason why she only cares about her own disguise, whether I accept it or not, can only show that she is not sure to put it in her eyes at all, because in her heart, I am also a dead person.
Take the matter of Yin Ji, Yin Ji is obviously not as unbearable as Xiaohuan said, yesterday Xiao Yu watched coldly and even helped to abuse, that is Xiao Yu's behavior, not on behalf of Yin Ji.
Although Yin Ji is timid, but at least she is also a beautiful girl, and she will send Xiaoyu over today with a message, first, to apologize for yesterday's incident, and secondly, she has already made her position clear, she is on my side.
Now that this situation is developing, if she is really a villain, she should have dissociated herself from me a long time ago.
"Go down!"
I don't want to say anything to Xiaohuan anymore, she was not surprised at all when she saw Situ Jingyuan on Concubine Wu's birthday, which already shows that I already knew that Situ Jingyuan was in the good palace.
Since she already knows everything I want her to know, then what I want her to do should have already been done, so even if she stays by my side, it will only hurt me, and it won't help me anymore.
……
The bright sunshine stayed in the middle of the sky, and all the figures standing under the sky looked short and cute.
Just after noon, a large number of forbidden troops came to the Appreciation Courtyard, which made it impossible to penetrate the inside and outside of my Appreciation Courtyard.
Jiang Ren took the lead and walked into the courtyard, holding a holy decree in his hand, and read it as I knelt down.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor summoned and said, Concubine Jiang has a bad reputation, and she is a disaster in the harem, from today onwards, she will be sent to the prison to set an example! Chin this! ”
As I expected, I didn't feel a lot of surprise, and I bowed to the ground to receive the order.
Skimming my eyes, I saw that outside the door of the Appreciation Courtyard, there were a lot of palace people gathered, and my eyes suddenly stayed in the worried expression of the little mandarin duck, maybe now, only the people around Fu Jinyue will care about me.
I nodded to the little mandarin duck, she should know what I wanted to say, and after that, I walked to Jiang Ren's side and said lightly: "Lord Jiang, let's go." ”
Jiang Ren didn't let people take me away immediately, but looked at me fixedly, as if he had something to say to me.
I stared at him sideways, once upon a time, I remember that every time he looked at me, there was a monstrous hatred in his eyes, but today, there was a look of regret in his eyes.
When did the crown prince of Jiang Kingdom change his opinion of me?
"You shouldn't be doing anything wrong in the palace." Jiang Ren said.
He and I are both citizens of Jiang Country, and in Jiang Country, he and I are indeed hostile, but here, we have another layer of relationship, that is, fellow villagers.
Perhaps, three months ago, I asked Xiao Hangzi to give him a letter, in which I told him that I had kept the evidence for his rehabilitation, and that I had not thought of using him at all, and that I had told him where the evidence was.
As far as I know, he hasn't gone to get the evidence, and the reason why he hasn't come to contact me is probably because of his own considerations.
Now, I am struggling in this good palace, and he will kindly remind me in his eyes that it should be human nature.
"Thank you, Lord Jiang, for your concern."
"Please!"
Jiang Ren didn't say much, he wasn't a person of many words, he made a gesture of please, but he gave me the greatest dignity, and didn't let the guards escort me away.
The prison of Liangguo is divided into two, one is set up in the imperial palace, and most of the people are imprisoned by the royal family and nobles, and the other is located at the foot of Luoxia Mountain in Yandu City, and the people who are locked up there are said to be high-ranking and powerful, and they are full of evil.
I thought that with my status as a palace concubine, I should be locked up in the palace anyway, but I didn't want to, but Jiang Ren took me out of the palace and walked all the way to the north, actually walking in the direction of Luoxia Mountain.
I didn't ask too much, thinking that since Xuanyuan Yi would decide like this, he wanted to suppress my arrogance.
Things in the palace have become like this, others can't see it, I believe he should be able to see it.
So it was a wise choice to transfer me out of the palace.
Unfortunately, the sky was not beautiful, and just as I left the palace, it was a sunny day, and suddenly it was pouring down.
Although Luoxia Mountain is also in the capital, because it is the place where the imperial court is imprisoned, it is also sparsely populated around.
I walked forward while drenched in the rain, and with a bump, I accidentally slipped and fell.
But what I didn't expect was that the person who grabbed me turned out to be Jiang Ren.
He helped me up, ignoring the attention of the guards around him, and said softly, "There is an intersection ahead, if you want to go, the road on the left is to leave Yandu City." ”
I was slightly stunned, not understanding what he was talking about, and when I turned my head to look over, he didn't look at me at all, as if he hadn't said what he had just said.
I was silent, and when I looked up, I really saw a fork in the road.
"If you want to be free, you can go now."
Suddenly, Jiang Ren said something again, and I chuckled in my heart, and finally affirmed that he was talking to me.
Jiang Ren was ordered by Xuanyuan Yi to escort me, and if I escaped halfway, he would not be able to escape responsibility.
He has just stabilized in the good country, and my relationship with him is not enough for him to sacrifice his life to save him.
So, the people who want to set me free, except for Xuanyuan Yi, I really haven't come up with a second one.
But if that's the case, does it prove that I've become Xuanyuanyi's outcast?
As strong as him, does he feel that he can't control the game?
"No need."
I didn't think much about it, I directly rejected Jiang Ren, and then said: "Please also ask Lord Jiang to help the palace thank the emperor." ”
Jiang Ren hesitated for a while, but he didn't say much.
At that moment, I suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and I stopped, glancing at the dense grass on either side.
This place is not far from the Heavenly Prison, and it is only separated from the Jingshi by a dirt road, if someone wants to rob a prisoner here, it must be the most unwise.
I glanced at Jiang Ren, raised my vigilance and asked, "This is also arranged by the emperor?" ”
Jiang Ren was obviously more nervous than me, grabbed me with one hand, protected me behind him, drew his sword, and ordered the other guards to stand by.
"Hahaha...... Prince Jingyuan, I really didn't expect you to become a traitor, run to a good country and become a Zhonglang general in a good country, and also be with the enchantress who killed you, hahaha......"
In the grass, a large wave of people suddenly jumped out, looking at this posture, there were hundreds of people.
They kept calling Jiang Ren the prince of Jingyuan, and it was obvious that this was Jiang Guo's people.
The guards of Liangguo were confused one by one, looking left and right for the trace of the prince of Jiang Guo, and finally set their eyes on Jiang Ren's body.
I've been staying behind Jiang Ren, thinking that Situ Zhen had repaired the book before, saying that some envoys would come recently, I'm afraid that my counter-plot three months ago would work, but these envoys chose to ambush Jiang Ren near the prison, would it be too stupid?
