In the midst of all the thoughts, his mind also wandered to an unknown place, and a guard coughed as if he had no intention of it, which pulled Ah Qing back to reality, and when he raised his eyes, there were many people not far away, and it was actually the empress's honor guard. It stands to reason that the empress should not come back at this point, and when it happened suddenly, she instinctively wanted to report to the palace, and opened her mouth to make a gesture, but the words suddenly froze at the corners of her lips, and she quickly turned around, her expression indifferent and ruthless.

The empress's carriage and horse had reached the stone steps in front of the palace in a blink of an eye, Zhang Yizhi got out of the car first, and then opened the curtain to pull the empress out, the empress put her hand on the back of his hand, and strode up the stairs, with Zhang Yizhi's extremely soft voice in between, "You beware of some skirts." The empress said with a smile: "It's all complicated and cumbersome, and it will be pruned another day." ”

The conversation did not continue, the empress stopped outside the palace gate, and Ah Qing, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly got up and hunched over, and politely pushed open the palace door for the empress.

All this happened suddenly, and the door of the temple suddenly opened, and several pairs of eyes froze at the same time.

"What are you guys doing!" The Empress couldn't help but snap a sharp voice.

Zhang Changzong still maintained the posture of holding one hand around Wan'er's waist and the other hand on her neck, which obviously made people feel infinite reverie.

He didn't let go immediately, maybe he was frightened, or maybe he pretended to be calm, he moved slowly, and he didn't show a flustered heart, "Your Majesty returned so early, and the scriptures have not been copied yet." ”

Wan'er patted Zhang Changzong on the shoulder: "Liulang is petty, and the ink stains have splashed on the collar." ”

The two looked at each other and saluted the empress in unison.

Wu Cao knew what was going on, and she sneered, "That's how you copied the scriptures for me? No wonder my nightmares keep coming, you are my nightmares yourselves! It's been a long time since she called herself "I" in front of people close to her, and she's really angry.

Zhang Yizhi took two steps closer and pointed to his biological brother, who was clearly reproachful, but actually exculpatory: "You, if you don't grow up, forget it, how can you be such a ridiculous bastard and provoke Your Majesty to hurt your body!" Who are the Nesheers, don't you have the slightest respect? This is in the palace, not in the folk square, when will you know how to converge? It's not a naïve child, even if they get along well, they should be guarded against by men and women. He sincerely apologized to the empress and said, "Rokuro is rude, this is my fault, if you want to be punished, please let me accept it on my behalf." Although I am not the eldest brother, the sixth brother has been closest to me since I was a child, and I have been the most influenced by me, and I am really to blame! ”

Wu Cao was naturally reluctant, and for the sake of Zhang Yizhi's affection, there was room for him, "Take an explanation, otherwise you will not be able to go online." "You are only referring to Zhang Changzong and Wan'er.

Zhang Yizhi's eyes swept very quickly, and it was not suitable for idle people to watch the excitement here, but he deliberately left Aqing behind.

The empress acquiesced to his arrangement, and sat down on the wide seat, dressed upright, with a solemn expression, and she was going to hear this public case herself.

The tea was boiled by Wan'er before, Zhang Yizhi poured out a bowl, put it on the lacquer plate, and raised his hands in front of the empress.

The empress didn't want to drink tea, but she didn't want to embarrass Zhang Yizhi, so she took the tea bowl and put it on the right desk.

"Which of you will speak first?" Her voice was desolate but majestic.

Wan'er's brain turned quickly, and she immediately answered: "Please listen to your majesty's words." ”

"Say." The empress doesn't seem to have enough patience with Wan'er.

"Your Majesty's willingness to give the slave and maid this opportunity to speak is already a great kindness, and in order to repay this kindness, the slave and maid guarantee that every word they say is true, and there is no false exaggeration." Wan'er took the lead, whether she was justified or ignored, she had the upper hand, "First of all, it is true that the slave and the slave and the rokuro usually laugh and scold, but there is no behavior of crossing the thunder pool; Secondly, the slave and maid to Liulang, and the slave and maid to the slave and maid, are just old people who have been reunited after a long absence, and the slave and maid have known Liulang as early as the princess's mansion; In the end, the slave maid and Rokuro are both loyal servants of the empress, selfless and distracting, if there must be something, just sympathize with each other. "She's still organized.

The empress didn't ask about the deep meaning of "sympathy", she was afraid that she would be the most embarrassed if she asked too much, she was old but occupied the best young man in the world, and sometimes she would have a sense of violence, but these touches could only be hidden in the bottom of her heart, and if she said it, it would be her own humiliation.

Zhang Changzong waited for an opportunity to speak: "It's me who is frivolous and forgetful, and the inner house is not a casual person, but there is nothing to do with me." What the inner house said is exactly what I mean in my heart, in short, it's all my fault, it's too self-respecting! ”

This all-encompassing attitude did not satisfy Wu Cao, and her lover was equally intolerable for covering other women like this.

There was a chill in his voice: "Rokuro has a burden, but I don't like it." The Empress confessed.

Wan'er argued a few words: "Zhang Liulang's words are not credible, it is the slave maid who is not solemn and out of proportion, and Liulang is reckless, and the slave maid is impure." "The Empress may be more willing to take the blame.

Zhang Yizhi penetrated the mystery and agreed with Wan'er's approach, "The inner house has always been serious, but this time it is really confused, our brother needs you to mention it everywhere, but now this situation is embarrassing." Those who understand naturally know that this is definitely not adultery, but more people only look at the appearance, so how can His Majesty's face exist? ”

"Fifth brother! You have to be pertinent—" Zhang Changzong shouted, and wanted to continue to refute, but was stopped.

"It's not a credit, what are you fighting for?" The empress said in disgust, and picked up Zhang Yizhi's words, "It's not as serious as Gorou thought, and my face won't be wiped out like this." I only hate you for being so ignorant? I also believe that you are just confused and confused, after all, you are still young, you are all eye-catching characters, and there are nothing that is not a big deal, how can I be quite unreasonable and narrow-minded! ”

That being said, no one took it entirely seriously.

Zhang Yizhi pulled his salary at the bottom of the kettle and said: "Neisheren, you only need one word, this misunderstanding can be easily resolved, why bother others?" He paced in front of Wan'er, leaned over slightly, and suppressed his voice, "Since it's not wishful thinking, there must be a who's right and wrong, and it's a smart decision to make a big thing small." ”

Ah Qing was closer to him, and he was surprised that Zhang Yizhi could play tricks under the eyes of the empress, but the empress seemed to be unaware and resigned to it. She began to regret it, if she could ventilate the news in time, she would not push Wan'er into such a dangerous situation, Wan'er treated her well, and bit by bit began to revive in her heart, and Zhang Changzong had ever given her a little sincerity? It's stupid to hurt an important person for the sake of an outsider!

Such a hint was clear to Wan'er as soon as she heard it, the empress would never punish the Zhang brothers, but for the farce to end, they must all be happy. didn't think about it anymore, and said suddenly: "It's all slaves and maids who can't hold back their loneliness, looking at today's good timing and seducing Liulang." ”

Zhang Changzong, who was beside him, finally reacted, looked at the expressionless brother, and then looked at Wan'er with a silent face, and finally cast a discerning glance at the empress sitting on a high place.

The empress was very satisfied with Wan'er's reply, since Xue Huaiyi was killed, she had been thinking about the time to warn Wan'er, at this time she seemed to be angry, her long sleeves flicked, and she was murderous, "Come on, put Shangguan Wan'er in the women's prison of the Inner Servant Province, and wait for the fate!" ”

Wan'er was very calm, and without waiting for the palace people who came to obey the order, she took the initiative to cooperate, and before leaving, she saluted the empress without saying a word.

Zhang Changzong was anxious when he saw Wan'er being taken away, but under the suppression of Zhang Yizhi's eyes, he didn't dare to show too much, and his chaotic mood twisted into a dead knot, and the whole thing seemed to be suffocating.

Ah Qing looked at him, not knowing what to do, and suddenly she found that she had stayed here like a waste person from beginning to end, she had never spoken, she had not been sent, and where was Zhang Yizhi's intention to leave her behind? Cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, and there were only two words in his head - "Trap." ”

Aqing, who was not very conspicuous, was also noticed by Zhang Changzong at this time, and he wondered what kind of opportunity she shouldn't have appeared at all?

Empress Wu Cao also understands that all accidents are only inevitable in the final analysis.

He was glad that there was such a small mistake as Aqing, and the original plan was to have another person to make up for the lack of guarding the inner prison, after all, the inner prison was not eaten badly, but was given croton...... However, with Aqing, this is even more perfect.

Shangguan Wan'er, even your henchmen are betraying you, and this is a cruel resentment to others. Zhang Yizhi sighed silently.

"Gorou, let's go!" The Empress said angrily.

Zhang Yizhi took a look at the remaining two people in the hall and waited for the empress to get up and leave.

Zhang Changzong still wanted to speak, but Ah Qing approached him at some point and pulled his clothes.

When the hall was silent, Ah Qing said slowly: "Don't make any more unnecessary excuses. She lowered her eyes and did not dare to look at him, if she said that in the past it was because of shyness, but now it is because of remorse.

Zhang Changzong looked at her wantonly, as if he wanted to see her through.

"Unexpectedly, Ah Qing, you can really surprise people." He taunted her.

Ah Qing's head was lowered, she could have pretended to be stupid, but said, "I didn't mean to." ”

Zhang Changzong snorted a few times in a row: "Now you are satisfied?" Are you all happy now? ”

She didn't understand his words very well, and was really stunned: "What do you mean?" ”

"Ah Qing, do you like me that much? What do you like about me! He was a little unreasonable, and his angry voice tore the air around him.

"I, I'm ......" she began to hesitate, knowing that this was the case, she should have followed the queen out of the palace.

"Can't answer, do you?" Zhang Changzong vented all his resentment on her, "I'll say it for you!" ”
