What she has in her hand is the same brand that she took from Liu Ningyan and later used to threaten me.

I stared at the name tag with wide eyes, and the three words on it burned my sight like a soldering iron - Yan Qingqing, such a light name, but for my life, it was more like a mountain that could not be climbed, and it would be pressed on my heart for the rest of my life, and I could never get rid of it.

And now, this brand reminds me of a lot of things from the past, including the child I lost in the bloody night.

I looked at the woman in front of me viciously, clenching my fists desperately and gritting my teeth to suppress myself from jumping on her and fighting to the death.

When Shen Rou saw my bloodshot and red eyes, she was slightly shocked for a while, but she immediately calmed down, still holding the name tag and not moving, while I looked at the name tag, resisting wave after wave of impulses in my heart, and finally slowly calmed down.

After being silent for a long time, I reluctantly spoke, but my voice was still a little uncontrollable: "I didn't expect that after so long, the concubine Niangniang actually kept this." ”

Shen Rou seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, smiled slightly, looked down at this famous brand with poor workmanship, and the satisfaction in her eyes seemed to be holding the world's treasure, and said: "This palace is most interested in some things of unknown origin, even if the news of you jumping into the river and committing suicide came at the beginning, this palace did not plan to throw it away, but sent more people to investigate." ”

“……”

"Actually, I still haven't found out anything."

"......" I reluctantly smiled, "Well, what's the use of keeping it?" ”

"It's because you can't find out anything that it's more interesting." She walked up to me step by step and stared into my eyes: "Then it proves that someone used a shocking lie to cover up the secret of this famous brand, and this shocking lie can't even be found out, so how amazing will the facts behind it be." ”

I closed my mouth and looked at the solemn expression on her face, almost exactly the same as the expression on the night when I threatened me on the night of Rong Jingzhai.

I turned pale, and it took a long time before I said, "The concubine is really aware of everything. ”

“……”

However, according to the people's daughter, this famous brand has been somewhat damaged, and it has been a long time, presumably those things at the beginning have long been dusted, since it is already an old thing, why bother to study it again? It's better to think about the moment. ”

As soon as my words fell, Shen Rou's face showed a triumphant smile, and she clapped her hands lightly and said, "Okay, very good." ”

“……”

"Yue Qingying, I have to say that although this palace hates you from the first sight, this palace also likes you very much."

“……”

"This palace likes to talk to smart people like you, because smart people always know the current affairs and know what to do and what not to do."

"......" I moved my gaze from the name tag to her face, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what the concubine thinks, what should the folk girl do and what should not be done now?" ”

Shen Rou turned around and walked back to the soft couch and sat down, gently stroked her slightly bulging belly with one hand, and said, "You also know that this palace is pregnant now, and if this child is a boy, it will be the pride of the sky!" ”

I curled the corners of my lips slightly, but didn't speak.

Indeed, not only because the child's father is the emperor, but also because there is a mother who is a noble concubine, and a grandfather who is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, a grandfather who is a prince of the dynasty and a master whose henchmen are all over the court, this child can be born, and he is a veritable pride of the sky.

"Since you have also spent a lot of time in this palace, of course you should know a truth."

“……”

"The pride of the sky, one is enough."

"......," I looked up at her.

Shen Rou looked down at her belly, and there was a hint of softness in her eyes like spring water, but when she looked up at me, the spring water condensed into ice.

"Everything else is superfluous."

At this moment, my face suddenly turned pale, and my fingertips were so cold that I could hardly feel it. After a long time, he trembled and said, "You, you want to say to the eldest prince—"

Shen Rou smiled: "He? Bengong hasn't taken that little hairy boy in his eyes yet. ”

I breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the stone in my heart did not let go because of this, and I still said with a little trembling: "What you have to deal with is Concubine Li's...... Child? ”

Shen Rou smiled but did not speak.

It seems that my guess before was not wrong, she really has always been aiming at Nangong Lizhu's belly, although Nian Shen is the eldest prince, but he can almost be said to have no background, although there is a queen's adoptive mother, but obviously, an indifferent person like Chang Qing will not really do anything for his future, so Shen Rou does not take him seriously at all; Relatively speaking, Nangong Lizhu is Pei Yuanhao's most beloved woman, and her child, the emperor, will naturally look at it differently, and there is a great possibility of becoming the crown prince.

I raised my pale face and looked at her, "Do you want me to go - to deal with the child in Concubine Li's belly?" ”

Shen Rou smiled: "I heard that your daughter was kidnapped at the beginning, and she was also the one who got in the way, don't you want to return a tooth for a tooth and blood for blood?" ”

A tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood? I looked at the soft and charming face in front of me and said slowly, "Of course...... Think! ”

"Isn't that great?"

"The concubine Niangniang is too much of a people's daughter." I said lightly: "She is Concubine Li, what qualifications does the folk girl have to deal with her?" It's a blessing to be able to survive under her feet. ”

"This is not something that this palace should think about."

Shen Rou slowly raised her head and looked at me: "A 'madman' who has been secretly imprisoned by the emperor and Concubine Li for two years can actually walk out of the cold palace unscathed, get the protection of the queen mother, and now take on the responsibility of the eldest prince's living and eating, this kind of ability - Yue Qingying, it is difficult for this palace to despise you." ”

“……”

"Go down, use your brain to think about what to do and what not to do, after all, it has not been a few days since the emperor returned to the palace."

I stood silently in front of her and leaned over to say, "The folk girl knows...... Mother, if it happens, this brand-"

She looked at me: "What, want to take it back?" ”

I didn't answer her words, but sniffed in the air, looked at the incense burner with light smoke rising beside her, and said: "There is cinnabar in the incense used by Niangniang, which is a good medicine for concentrating on the mind, but I heard that if there is too much of a medicine, not only will the effect of the medicine be weakened, but it will even poison the user himself, and the same is true for cinnabar." ”

As I spoke, my eyes fixed on the name tag in her hand.

Shen Rou's face sank: "Are you threatening me?!" ”

"Don't dare. The folk girl just reminded the mother, cinnabar, it's not good to use it much. I smiled slightly: "Summer is coming, it is better to change some cool orchid, which is also beneficial to the fetus." ”

Her face became a little panicked, and I gave a light blessing, and then turned around and left the Chonghua Palace.

It wasn't until twilight fell that Shui Xiu came back from Yuwen, and Mama Wu looked at her haggard appearance, and the injury on her knee, her brows were twisted into a pimple, and she sighed while helping her change her dressing.

Shui Xiu turned her head and saw me sitting at the table all the time, so she asked softly, "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

Mama Wu glanced at me and said, "Today, Concubine Li and Concubine Guifei passed her over, and she went to the Chonghua Hall of Guifei. ”

"Huh? And then what? ”

"I don't know, the girl has been sitting there in a daze since she came back."

Saying that, Mama Wu said to me: "Girl, what happened today, you sue us, we can also have a discussion, is the concubine also to you-"

I looked back at her concerned eyes and shook my head gently, "It's okay, she just told me to talk." ”

"And what the hell did she say?"

I looked up and closed the doors and windows, and then said, "She wants me to deal with Concubine Li's child." ”

"What?!"

Mama Wu and Shui Xiu were all taken aback, and immediately said, "Then, how did you answer?" ”

"......" I was silent and didn't speak.

And the silence was already answered, and suddenly both of them were worried, and Mama Wu said in a low voice: "Girl, do you have any handle in her hands?" In fact, we have always wanted to ask you about the original incident, Ming Xu - obviously that incident has nothing to do with you, why do you confess your sin? Is she threatening you? ”

I glanced at her and nodded silently.

The two of them glanced at each other, their faces were all stunned, but they couldn't speak for a while, and after a while, Shui Xiu said slowly: "Girl, that-"

I said in a deep voice: "I sued you because I was afraid that you would be worried, but you should not ask about the specific matter." ”

Mama Wu thought for a while and said, "Then, girl, do you have any plans now?" ”

“……”

"Do you really want to help her deal with Concubine Li?"

“……”

"Girl, you have to think clearly, that's Concubine Li! Not to mention that we are just insignificant people in front of her, in the past two years, she has been favored in the harem, and the emperor holds her in the palm of his hand, whoever touches it is a mortal crime, and the queen dare not do anything to her! If her child has a what, it's not enough to be slashed! ”

Shui Xiu hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, girl, you must think clearly!" ”

"Besides," Mama Wu looked into my eyes and said solemnly: "What kind of person is Concubine Shen, girl, you know very well!" ”

“……”

Of course I know what kind of person Shin Rou is.

I was so cautious at the beginning, but the child still flowed away, not to mention that now she is facing Nangong Lizhu, and she can have hundreds of means, but she uses a means that is not in her hands - using me.

What is her plan, I know very well, once I succeed, her next step is to push me out, in this way, she will get rid of me and Nangong Lizhu at the same time, it can be described as killing two birds with one stone!

Such wishful thinking is too good!
