Chapter 161: Burning the Portrait
Qi Fu Yanli looked up and saw that it was Xie Rin, the guard of His Royal Highness the King of Beihai, who was talking to him.
Subconsciously begging for Yanli's heart to tighten, he always felt like something bad was wrong. He hurriedly greeted with a complimented smile, "The Seventh Highness is also there?" ”
Xie Rin didn't smile at all, "Lord Captain, please." ”
Beggar Yanli had no choice but to follow him to Yabao.
In the private room, the King of the North Sea was drinking tea leisurely, and when Beggar Yanli walked in, the King of the North Sea did not raise his head, but looked directly at the water in the teacup.
Qi Fu Yanli saluted respectfully, "I have seen His Highness in my humble position." ”
Only then did the King of the North Sea raise his eyes and glance at him, and waved his hand lightly, "Sit." ”
Qifu Yanli felt a trace of panic, and the Beihai King's expression was so dark that he couldn't see what it meant.
As he sat down slowly, the King of the North Sea said with a smile, "The captain is also an elegant man, and he loves to stay in the Invitation Moon Tower. He raised his eyebrows and continued, "This Invitation Moon Tower is indeed a good place, and many celebrities in the capital like to run here. ”
Begging Fu Yanli didn't know what the Beihai King had come up with when he came up, what the meaning of the opening words was, and he was nervous in his heart whether the Beihai King would know about his relationship with Xiao Jingqi, and was afraid that his identity would be exposed.
This Yingyue Mansion is a property that Xiao Jingqi has purchased in this Pingcheng in recent years, and it is used to cover up the meeting place of his subordinates.
But Qi Fu Yanli knew that the house of the property was not written with Xiao Jingqi's name, but Gu Xi, the owner of this Yueyue Building, even if Gu Xi found out, he didn't have too many cases, but he was just a businessman.
Qifu Yanli was still very calm, not too worried, and he and Xiao Jingqi rarely met alone on weekdays. Even if they have met alone, they are still in this Inviting Moon Tower, and most of the people in this Inviting Moon Building are Xiao Jingqi's people. At this time, the king of Beihai did not move the Yuelou, and he must not have found anything wrong with the Yuelou.
Qi Fu Yanli immediately came back to his senses and smiled respectfully, "Your Highness is also an elegant person, and his humble position is just to hang out when he has nothing to do. ”
The King of the North Sea smiled faintly, "Since we have met, let's have a cup of tea together." ”
Qifu Yanli had to accompany him quietly, but the King of the North Sea did not mention any topics about Xiao Jingqi from beginning to end, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he finally left the scene.
But he came to find Hou Ye on purpose, but he was disappointed.
~~~~~~~~~
I stood in the courtyard of Zhaoyang Palace and looked at the plane tree in the courtyard, stunned.
At this time, a palace maid came over, saluted in front of me, and said, "Concubine Niangniang, please see the Empress Dowager." ”
I came back to my senses and looked at the palace maid, she should be the palace maid of the Taihua Palace, not very familiar, but I seem to have seen it.
Since I woke up from this injury, I haven't gone to Taihua Hall to see me, and I haven't done it well in terms of etiquette, Feng Shi came to remind me that I shouldn't go for many days, and I'm a little annoyed.
I smiled indifferently at the palace maid who came, answered her, and then went.
I was unusually calm and composed, and I took Yi'er with me.
Yi'er knows martial arts, she is still Xiao Jingqi's person, if the Empress Dowager Feng finds out what is different about me and wants to do something to me, Yi'er will definitely protect me.
I wore the dress that a concubine should have, and came to the Taihua Hall calmly.
When I walked into the hall, I deliberately took a closer look at the layout of the main hall of the Taihua Hall and how many palace maids and attendants there were.
I was still worried that the Empress Dowager Feng would recognize me that night.
She had seen me many years ago, and she had seen my martial arts, and if she really wanted to find out that it was me, she might have a fight to catch a turtle.
The Empress Dowager Feng sat on a low couch in the main hall, Yuetao stood beside her, and the eunuch Liu Asu was also on the side.
I relaxed my expression a little, just such slaves, if they really tried to catch me, it was impossible.
I knelt down and saluted, orderly and steady.
"Get up, the concubine is in good health, sit down."
The Empress Dowager Feng looked at me and said lightly.
The slave maid brought a chair, I sat down with a thanksgiving salute, looked up at her with a smile, "The concubine has lost the etiquette of the harem, and she has not asked the empress dowager to say goodbye in recent days, it is the concubine's concubine, and the empress dowager is also asked to punish her." ”
The Empress Dowager Feng smiled, and then straightened her complexion, "The emperor has come to ask the mourning family for instructions, the concubine is unwell, and if these etiquettes are exempted, the concubine will not blame herself more." ”
I hurriedly said, "The Empress Dowager is magnanimous. ”
"The concubine is in good health?"
I smiled slightly, "The concubine is no longer in the way." ”
"It's okay, otherwise the emperor won't be able to eat all day, which is not good."
"The concubine's fault." I lowered my eyes and whispered softly.
The Empress Dowager Feng frowned suspiciously, looked at me intently, and asked, "The concubine still can't remember what happened in the past few years?" ”
Of course, people still think that my memory stays before I returned to Pingcheng.
I smiled apologetically, "The concubine is helpless, I still can't remember." ”
The Empress Dowager Feng looked at Liu Asu, "Is there a way for the imperial doctor in the palace?" ”
Liu Asu hurriedly replied, "Imperial Doctor Jia has already tried many prescriptions, but the concubine still can't remember it." ”
Empress Dowager Feng shook her head, "This is not good, how can the concubine forget what she has experienced, presumably the emperor is not willing, how many emperors want to remember what they have forgotten." ”
Then she looked at me, "Did you say that concubine?" ”
I smiled and nodded, "That's what the Empress Dowager said." ”
The Empress Dowager smiled, "Since the concubine also wants to remember, it is better for the mourning family to send someone to find Doctor Cui, although I heard that Doctor Cui has been missing for several years, but the mourning family believes that he must still be alive, if you can find him, there must be a way to make the concubine better, concubine, don't you say?" ”
I smiled and saluted, "That's good." ”
Coming out of the Taihua Palace, I was indifferent and melancholy. From the words of the Empress Dowager Feng, it is obvious that she wants to see if I know Master Cui, wants to see my reaction, and wants to know if I know the news of Master Cui.
But I understood one thing, Master Cui was not in the palace, and the Feng family didn't know where he was. If Cui Shibo was really under house arrest in the palace by the Feng family, she wouldn't have to tell me this today.
But back then, the Feng family once invited Cui Shibo into the palace, and I lost the news of Cui Shibo, and later saw Cui Shibo in Li Yi Cemetery, and he saved me. Rescued me back to the Frost Water Pavilion and lost to my internal strength, but I was seriously injured, and in the end I still died.
After I died, I had no way of knowing where Master Cui was.
Feng Shi once again mentioned that Master Cui, who had been missing for so many years, must have saved my life this time because of the pill that Uncle Shi left me.
She must have learned where the pills came from.
Back then, the Feng family invited Shi Bo into the palace, and I already knew a little bit about what it was at this time.
She coveted the elixir of the uncle, and the uncle must not have given it to her back then. Now, she may have thought that again.
I can't be wrong in my guess.
I looked back at the three big characters of Taihua Palace, and walked towards my bedroom with a chuckle.
Still on the bluestone road of the palace, Tuoba Hong hurriedly walked over. He seemed to be relieved when he saw me, grabbed my hand, and said softly, "The Empress Dowager asked you to come in to see me, why don't you let people come to me, I can accompany you." ”
I smiled softly, "What is the emperor panicking, the empress dowager is just looking at the concubine's body." ”
"The Empress Dowager really didn't embarrass you?" He frowned slightly and wondered.
I sneered, "Really not, why is the emperor so nervous, is it possible that he is afraid that the queen mother will harm her concubines?" ”
That night, I still remember vividly, it was the arrow that she Feng Empress Dowager let Yulin Jun release, although Feng Zhaoyi's eyes were vicious, but it was the Empress Dowager who gave the order. She really wants my life......
I still know a little bit about what the reason for my life was.
Tuoba Hong was so nervous that Feng would be bad for me, it was because he also knew that the Empress Dowager Feng wanted to get rid of me that night.
Now that night, I can't die, and the Empress Dowager Feng won't kill me easily anymore because she has no chance.
Even if she thinks I'm in the way of Feng Zhaoyi, she won't kill me at will, there must be a reason to kill someone.
Am I a concubine, or Gao Yang's daughter, I am afraid that it is difficult to say that I am an assassin, that night has passed, this is already an afterthought, can she say that I am an assassin again?
Maybe the palace forbidden army didn't know me that night, but at this time, I knew the identity of the concubine, and no one would slander me at will.
For my question just now, Tuoba Hong smiled, afraid that I would think too much, so he changed the topic, "I am worried that the Empress Dowager is the rules of the harem, and it will be difficult for me." ”
I smiled slowly, "The Empress Dowager is very good to her concubines, and the emperor is too worried." ”
"I will accompany Rong'er back to Zhaoyang Palace." His tone was extremely gentle.
I smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”
On the long road, the palace maids who walked on both sides stopped and knelt on the ground, waiting for me and the emperor to walk by.
I casually glanced at the palace maid kneeling beside the road, and saw that Cai Yue, who was next to Feng Zhaoyi of Yong'an Palace, was also kneeling in the palace maid.
I glanced at her and looked away from her.
~~~~~~~~~
After Tuoba Hong had dinner with me, he didn't let me sleep, and I didn't keep him. He was worried that my health was not yet well, and I didn't want to sleep.
Facing him every day, I'm already at the limit.
The reason is, of course, - am I just Gao Zhaoyang Rong Guifei at this time?
Late at night, I came to the study room of the side hall, and looked at the portrait that Gu Shanxiu painted for me many years ago, hanging in this palace in such a grand manner, I suddenly felt very ridiculous.
"Take it down." I said indifferently to Yi'er who was following me.
Yi'er took the portrait off the wall and placed it on the desk.
I looked at the portrait quietly for a long time before I said, "Burn it." ”
Yi'er didn't ask why, nodded in response to me, and took the portrait to burn it.
Such obvious evidence is here, how can I let it happen, my identity can't be revealed yet.
And at this moment, I suddenly felt the figure shake.
I whispered to the window, "Who? ”
I watched vigilantly, and a person came out of the dark place in the hall with a half-ring, it was Nangong Ni.
She was actually in my Zhaoyang Palace, and I looked at her suspiciously, "Why are you here?" ”
She looked at me with a strange look on her face, slowly approached me, and smiled lightly, "Niangniang's memory should still be very clear, Niangniang still understands who she is." ”
She said yes.
"So what?" I said indifferently.
Nangong Ni shook her head, "Niangniang should be stronger than before, and she knows who she is better." ”
I looked at Nangong Ni's face in the candlelight, a normal cold face.
"What do you want to say?"
"Niangniang should clearly remember who she is, so she knows more clearly why her family died, and she should also have a strong **."
The corners of my mouth twitched, stunned, and looked at her coldly.
