Qin Changning's face also changed slightly, Sima Jiao stood a few steps away from them and looked at them deeply, because there were palace maids and eunuchs around, she didn't deliberately pay attention and no one approached, she didn't know if this Sima Jiao listened to the conversation between her and Sima Ningrou just now, if she listened, it would be troublesome.

Sima Jiao, who hasn't seen her for two months, is completely different from before, although she is still wearing silk and satin, and her head is still shaking with a golden hairpin, but these can't hide the haggard on her face, and she has lost a whole circle of weight, and even her eyes are sunken.

She looked at Qin Changning and Sima Ningrou at this time, her face was not very good, and even with an indescribable emotion in her eyes, Sima Ningrou pursed her lips and greeted Sima Jiao, "Eighth Emperor Sister." ”

Sima Jiao didn't pay attention to Sima Ningrou at all, but looked straight at Qin Changning, Sima Ningrou pouted, but thinking that the queen mother said that Sima Jiao was a poor person without the blessing of her mother, she couldn't bear to say sarcastic about Sima Jiao like before, but pulled Qin Changning to leave, Qin Changning patted Sima Ningrou's hand, looked at Sima Jiao, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Sister Eight Emperor should have something to do with Changning?" ”

Sima Jiao walked towards Qin Changning step by step, and said in a deep voice, "I heard everything you just said. ”

Qin Changning's eyes narrowed, she raised her eyes and glanced at Sima Jiao, seeing that Sima Jiao was still expressionless, as if she was narrating someone else's affairs, she took Sima Ningrou's hand and whispered, "Rou'er, you go to the Tai Hospital to prepare first, I will come over to test you in a while, I still have something to discuss with the Eighth Emperor Sister, go quickly." ”

Sima Ningrou glanced at Sima Jiao vigilantly, the last time Sister Changning and Sima Jiao were alone, and then Sister Changning was poisoned, and she was still recuperating in Qingcheng Mountain for a month before her injuries recovered, she reluctantly pulled Qin Changning and said in a low voice, "Sister Changning, we don't understand the Eighth Emperor Sister, anyway, now that Concubine Shuniang is not by the Eighth Emperor Sister's side, the Eighth Emperor Sister doesn't dare to do anything to us." ”

When Sima Jiao heard Sima Ningrou's words, her eyes narrowed, and she glanced at Sima Ningrou coldly, Qin Changning pulled Sima Ningrou down behind her and glanced at Sima Jiao, Sima Jiao returned to her expressionless appearance, Qin Changning patted Sima Ningrou, "Obedient, go quickly, I have something to talk about with the Eighth Emperor Sister, and you also said that the Lady Concubine is not here now, so the Eighth Emperor Sister will not treat me like this, go." ”

Sima Ningrou sighed, and then walked over to the Tai Hospital with his palace maid step by step, at this time Zisu also came from the queen mother's palace, Qin Changning asked her to wait on the side, and he and Sima Jiao walked to the end of the palace corridor and walked to the pavilion above.

Sima Jiao looked at Qin Changning's calm and calm appearance, her eyes were cold, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you with poison this time?" ”

When Qin Changning heard Sima Jiao's words, the corners of her mouth hooked up with a smile, she looked back at Sima Jiao, her cherry lips opened slightly, "I think the Eighth Emperor Sister is not such a person who can't judge the situation, since you just chose to use that sentence to lure me over, it naturally means that you want to make a deal with Changning, and naturally you will not have the intention of harming Changning, do you say that what I said is right?" ”

Sima Jiao looked at Qin Changning deeply and did not speak, Qin Changning also looked at Sima Jiao, I haven't seen her for two months, Sima Jiao is more mature than before, but she is also deeper than before, she seems to have seen Sima Xuan's shadow in Sima Jiao, Sima Jiao has not spoken, Qin Changning raised his eyebrows, and asked softly, "Eighth Emperor Sister, do you think what I said is wrong?" ”

"Qin Changning, you are so smart, how could you not have thought that the tea was poisonous at that time?" Sima Jiao looked at Qin Changning and said indifferently, "You are so smart, why in my Jiaoyang Palace, you can't think that there is poison in that tea." ”

"Because I know that Concubine Xiao Shu wouldn't dare to poison me so blatantly." Qin Changning looked at Sima Jiao and said calmly, "So I drank that cup of tea, it was out of... My trust in myself is also my trust in you, Eighth Emperor Sister. ”

Sima Jiao automatically ignored Qin Changning's later words, and said with a little excitement, "You know that my mother concubine would not dare to poison you so blatantly, she will not poison you in my palace, so why don't you make it clear to your father, seeing that my father has sent my mother into the cold palace!" ”

Qin Changning raised his eyebrows and looked at Sima Jiao, who was a little excited, the corners of his mouth hooked, and said, "Why?" ”

Sima Jiao was stunned for a moment, Qin Changning took a step forward, looked at Sima Jiao and asked coldly again, "Why?" Why should I help your mother intercede, I was poisoned because your mother asked me to drink tea, although your mother will not be so stupid to give me the poisoned tea in person, but I did drink the tea she gave me to be poisoned, since you can't find the real murderer, then your mother should naturally pay the price for what she did! ”

Sima Jiao was forced by Qin Changning to take a step back, she looked up at Qin Changning, "Do you know that it wasn't my mother who poisoned her?" Do you know who poisoned it? ”

Qin Changning raised his eyebrows, "No, I don't know, I only know that I was poisoned in Jiaoyang Palace, and then fell into a coma, and was sent to Qingcheng Mountain to recuperate for a month before the residual poison in my body was removed, I don't know if it was poisoned by your mother." ”

"You..."Sima Jiao swallowed back the words that came to her lips, took a deep breath and looked at Qin Changning, "Okay, since that's the case, let's start making a deal." ”

Qin Changning looked at Sima Jiao indifferently, but he was a little surprised in his heart, today's Sima Jiao is indeed much more mature and stable than Sima Jiao in the past, and his mind is also much more thoughtful, knowing that he will not confide in half a word about the previous things, he immediately changed the topic.

Qin Changning turned around and sat down on the stool in front of the round table, looked up at Sima Jiao, raised his hand and made a request, "What does the Eighth Emperor Sister want to do with me, what kind of deal?" ”

She wasn't sure if Sima Jiao had really heard her conversation with Sima Ningrou, so she had to answer in the affirmative.

Sima Jiao saw the confusion in Qin Changning's eyes, and smiled coldly, "The county lord thinks I just said that I heard you talk to Sima Ningrou and lied to you?" ”

Qin Changning couldn't deny it, Sima Jiao smiled and said, "If my grandfather or my imperial brother know that the crown prince killed Miss Yan of the Champion Hou Mansion, does my sister think that the prince can continue to live in the East Palace like this?" ”

Qin Changning's eyes narrowed slightly, it seemed that Sima Jiao had really heard the conversation between her and Ning Rou.

Raising his eyes to look at Sima Jiao, who was looking at her with a determined face, Qin Changning's eyes narrowed slightly, and asked, "Eighth Emperor Sister, what deal do you want to make with me?" ”
