He Zaimei instantly understood that the cushion sitting under her was originally prepared for Angelica. didn't expect that the crime of "sitting on a red mat at a national funeral" would affect her anything, but it was also a handle in her hand - just such a little careful thinking, but in turn it killed her?

No, she didn't believe it, and she definitely never wanted to die!

"He Angelica, call He Angelica for me!" He Zaimei yelled at the wind bar, and there was a delicate figure standing behind her, "Tell her that I have the bargaining chips to exchange, in addition to Peng Jian and the two little eunuchs, I also pinch the lives of her half-brothers and sisters!" ”

The woman behind the windbar wears a hood that covers the bridge of her nose and only shows the corners of her mouth. After He Zaimei was tied up and escorted in the direction of the cold palace, the hooded woman walked out and walked to the emperor Zhu Yunwen and saluted respectfully, "Long live my emperor, long live my concubine, I don't know if I can talk about it in front of the holy car." ”

Zhu Yun shook his head and said relatively gently: "Concubine Tai said it." ”

The woman in front of her, Qi Muer, I don't know if her luck is too good or too bad, on the second day when she was favored by the emperor and named a concubine, the emperor returned to heaven, and Qi Muer directly became a concubine.

As soon as the emperor was out of breath, the situation was unpredictable, Zhu Yunwen slipped away to the imperial study alone to look for two important letters, and he couldn't turn them over for a while, and when he was in a hurry, footsteps sounded outside again, it was Jinyiwei's person. Zhu Yunwen was in a dilemma, but Qi Mu'er's gentle voice came from outside the door, and a few words took away Jinyiwei.

Because of this incident, Zhu Yunwen was a little grateful to her, and Zhu wrote a batch of pens outside the funeral range.

I only heard Qi Mu'er say: "Please Your Majesty send the county lord of Qingning out of the palace." ”

Zhu Yunwen was silent in confusion.

Qi Mu'er explained: "The concubine understands the personality of the county lord of Qingning, so she will not mishear the rumors in the palace and think that she is a woman who charms the lord. But most people don't know about her, these days, the rumors in the palace are too fierce, and the impact on His Majesty is very bad. ”

Zhu Yunwen furrowed his eyebrows and asked with deep displeasure: "What are they preaching?" What do they dare to preach! ”

"Everything stems from the fact that the county lord has too many privileges in the palace," Qi Mu'er said without fear, "Let me ask a married woman, what kind of reason can she use to be in charge of the harem?" It's too suspicious, and it's hard for people inside and outside the palace not to think crookedly. ”

Zhu Yunwen was a little annoyed, he was big enough to deal with state affairs, how could he have the time to personally clean up a harem left by the emperor's grandfather? He Angelica is still his own person, of course, she is the first choice to help!

Qi Mu'er seemed to know his mind, and even knew what he was thinking, "For example, just now, the concubine also heard a little, Your Majesty, you are dealing with military affairs in the imperial study, and the county lord didn't even report it, and went straight in, and you don't even hold her accountable." What she told you, the concubine didn't know and didn't dare to guess, but is it too child's play for you to put down the state affairs at hand and rush out just to deal with a former imperial concubine? ”

Zhu Yunwen said with a calm face: "Filial piety is the foundation of people, and if Concubine He disrespects my imperial grandfather, I will naturally be severely punished." ”

"Filial piety is something that everyone in the palace knows," Qi Mu'er paused, and said with a little timidity in her voice, "But I'm afraid that as soon as it spreads outside, this matter will gradually be spread, and the concubine and the county lord will not be in harmony, and the county lord will move out of the emperor, and then ...... The emperor helped the county lord execute the concubine of the former emperor. ”

The implication is that the emperor is shaken by the woman, and the woman who kills the emperor's grandfather is a great unfilial piety!

At first glance, it was really very convincing, and Zhu Yunwen was immediately shaken, because the facts were not much different from what Qi Mu'er said, that is, He Danggui came to complain, saying that Concubine He used Dahong during the national funeral, and urged Zhu Yunwen to solve it.

After a little groaning, Zhu Yunwen instructed the people around him: "Go and release Concubine He, and order her to think about it in her palace, copy and pray for the emperor's grandfather, and not leave the palace for a hundred days." ”

"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Qi Mu'er kowtowed.

He Angelica commanded a group of people to search all the palace rooms and secret passages that could be searched in the palace, but they did not find Peng Yan.

At this time, Qing'er ran over like a wind, told He Angelica everything that happened over there, and stared at He Angelica's face with a little worry. I blamed myself in my heart, but she was still unkind to do things, so that Qi Mu'er took advantage of the loophole and slandered the emperor. Damn, Qi Mu'er in my impression is just a little white rabbit, where did she cultivate into a rabbit spirit and come back!

He Angelica patted Qing'er on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, just think of other ways." It's just that Qi Mu'er asked the emperor to take me out of the palace, and I may not stay here for long. ”

"What else can you think of?" Qing'er walked around anxiously.

"There will always be." He Angelica comforted Qing'er softly, "It's not without gain today, at least I know two things, one is the approximate reason why He Zaimei killed my mother, and the other is that the hostages in He Zaimei's hands should be hidden in the palace, not outside the palace." When He Zaimei had an accident, her henchmen and palace maids were wandering around the palace, but no one left the palace. ”

"Huh? You know why that woman killed your mother! ”

He Angelica squinted at the palm grove in the distance, and said slowly: "My mother returned to Yangzhou fourteen years ago, and in the past fourteen years, she has never been to the capital openly, and the only few times she went to Beijing was also sneaky. I asked my mother why, and my mother said that she had received a favor from a person and promised that person that she would never set foot in the capital again. This time, the mother changed her name and surname and settled in the capital as the Lan family, but she was unfortunately discovered, and then she was killed. ”

Qing'er guessed: "You mean, who is the person who made a contract with your mother?" But why didn't she let your mother go to Beijing? ”

He Angelica shook his head: "I don't know, my mother didn't reveal it, it may be that she has some unknown secrets about He Zaimei, He Zaimei is afraid that she will say it, so she will stop talking...... I only blamed my mother for being too stupid, and secretly ran to see the woman alone. ”

"Do you want Nie Chun to help you check? He must have recovered from his grief, right? ”

He Angelica shook his head again and said, "No, I don't want to trouble him about this matter, He Zaimei's post when he went out was written by his ex-husband He Jingxian." After the mother received the post, she kept it hidden, deliberately hiding it from Nie Chun, not letting him know, and then quietly went to the appointment alone - no matter what the reason, it really hurt Nie Chun's heart. I feel very sorry for him, I don't want to see him for the time being, and I don't want to mention his sadness again. ”

Qing'er held her chin thoughtfully, and after a while, she suddenly said, "I remembered something, about Uncle Mei." ”

"What?"

Qing'er waved her hand: "Uh...... Don't say it, you're angry when you hear it, anyway, it has nothing to do with your mother's business. ”

He Angelica smiled and said, "How can a word make me angry? Say it quickly, don't sell it. ”

"Then I'll just say, last month my brother took me to a banquet, a very luxurious big restaurant, with Gao Jue, Duan Xiaolou and so on, anyway, a lot of men drink together. I didn't want to stay in the box, so I went out for a walk by myself, and when I passed by another box, I glanced casually and saw Uncle Mei through the crack in the door, taking his son and daughter, eating with Zhu Di, the king of Yan! ”

He Angelica repeated suspiciously: "He Jingxian, and King Yan." ”

Qing'er said: "Yes, I also felt strange, so I looked at it twice." Uncle Yan Wangshuai knows me, he often comes to my house to find my brother, and I am an uncle, so I gradually got acquainted with him. He saw me through the crack in the door, and beckoned me to come in and sit down. I went in and stared at the two boys and girls surnamed He, who were about your age, beautiful, with talking eyes and a dimple on his left cheek. ”

“……”

"Yan Wang drank too much, and thought that I had a crush on that boy, so what did I say to be my master, and I promised to promote a good relationship, so that my brother was also satisfied and relieved. I was embarrassed and said casually, 'I only need angelica from the He family!' Then He Jingxian said, "I only have two children, Jun Hao and Shang Yu, and I don't know the one Miss Liao said." Speaking of this, Qing'er looked at He Angelica's reaction.

"Finished? That's it? ”

"Well, I also think Uncle Mei is too good, so I borrowed urine to leave on the spot. Xiaoyi, are you angry? ”

He Angelica said: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, I don't feel anything after hearing it, the only thing I think is that the relationship between King Yan and the He family has been so good for decades that they can still eat together!" ”

"Huh? Do they have a good relationship? ”

faintly reminded, "I don't remember mentioning that at the first birthday banquet fourteen years ago, He Jingxian presented my jade pendant to King Yan?" ”

"Oh, yes!"

As he was talking, the person who searched the palace wine cellar brought back an empty wine jar, He Angelica took it and looked at it carefully, frowned slightly after a while, and put the wine jar in Qing'er's hand and let her see it too.

There are two lines of blood writing at the bottom of the altar, one of which reads, He Zaimei's secret is hidden in her feet, and she killed someone in order to keep the secret. Another line reads, Brother Zhu was rescued, he hid in the scrap blacksmith house on Eighteen Streets, go and save him, he is about to starve to death!

He Angelica sighed: "This is the words written by Peng Yan. ”

The man who found the jar said: "There are broken porcelain tiles, blood stains, and ropes that bind people in the cellar, and people should have been locked up, but they were removed." ”

Qing'er knew that He Angelica must be very worried, so she deliberately clapped her hands and said happily: "Fortunately, I already know the whereabouts of my brother Zhu Fat, and if I don't save him, I can only save one 'Zhu Thin'!" Xiaoyi, you should leave the palace and go to Eighteen Streets! ”

"I'm going?"

"Yes, you leave the palace, and I will continue to look for Peng Yan and Wei Ge'er in the palace." Qing'er analyzed empathetically, "Qi Mu'er said bad things about you and didn't let you stay in the palace, the emperor didn't immediately order you to leave the palace because of face, but sooner or later he will make an order." At that time, it will be more difficult to go now! ”

He Danggui thought about it for a while, and felt that what Qing'er said was good, so he nodded and agreed, and instructed Qing'er: "You are careful in everything, if you have something urgent, you can go to Cicada Yi to discuss, or Duan Xiaolou." ”

"Don't worry, I have the gold medal from the emperor to avoid death!" Qing'er pretended to pat the empty pocket.
