"Niangniang, don't be angry, maybe the emperor is just confused."

"Get out of here"

The palace maid walked out quickly, afraid that after a while, Concubine Hua would be crazy like last time and implicate herself.

Concubine Jin sat on the bed, hugged the emperor's arm, and leaned on the emperor's shoulder: "Your Majesty, the concubines have been very irritable these days, if the emperor has time tomorrow, can you come to accompany the concubines and horseshoe crabs again?"

The emperor patted Concubine Jin's hand on his arm: "Tomorrow, if I have some to deal with, if Concubine Ai is in a bad mood, ask the maid guards to accompany her to relax." ”

Concubine Jin looked at the emperor with pitiful eyes: "Then won't the emperor come tomorrow and the concubine here?"

The emperor looked at Concubine Jin's pitiful appearance, his heart softened, and his tone was gentle: "I'll come over when I'm done, maybe later." ”

"It's okay, the concubine is waiting for the emperor. As soon as she heard that the emperor would come tomorrow, Concubine Jin laughed and couldn't hide her happiness.

On the second day, when Liuzhu was guarding the door outside, the Queen Mother sent someone again.

Liuzhu went in and reported: "Madam, someone from the Queen Mother's side is here."

"Okay, I'll go right away" Qin Luoyi thought to herself that the Queen Mother had already sent someone a few days ago, and she had reported her illness and refused, if she didn't go today, the Queen Mother might have to come again to urge her many times

When Qin Luoyi arrived, the Queen Mother was lying on a chair, and several palace maids were pinching her shoulders and hammering her legs.

Qin Luoyi owes his body: "See the Queen Mother"

"No need to be polite, get up" The queen mother waved her hand and told the palace maids to retreat, and sat up straight: "How is the matter of the magpie that the mourning family asked you to check?"

Qin Luoyi covered half of his face with his sleeves, turned his head behind him and coughed twice: "I'm still investigating, there are no important clues." ”

"Why, this disease is not cured yet, how did you get it" The Queen Mother inquired about Qin Luoyi's condition to see if it was serious.

Qin Luoyi pretended to cough twice: "It's nothing, it's just that it's infected with the wind and cold, and it's fine." ”

The Queen Mother educated Qin Luoyi earnestly: "That's not good, I don't pay attention to my body, who else can I count on, so I have to pay attention to recuperation, and the mourning family will call an imperial doctor for you to take a look."

Qin Luoyi opened his mouth to stop the Queen Mother from calling the imperial doctor: "No need, the concubine is fine, the Queen Mother is bothered." ”

"Well, since you haven't recovered from this illness, let's go back and rest, and the mourning family won't ask you."

Seeing Qin Luoyi's sick appearance, the Queen Mother was in no mood to say anything, so she asked her to go back first.

The Imperial Study.

The emperor is conspiring with his confidants.

"The old minister thinks that this time Hua Guifei did such a thing, the emperor has a reason to deal with her, just to extinguish the prince's prestige, why didn't he do it for a long time?"

The emperor thought for a while: "I think it's not the time yet, we don't know what forces are behind Prince Hua, and we can't rashly act to cause public outrage." ”

"What the emperor said is very true, it is the old minister who is negligent"

"It's okay, Aiqing go down, these words I said to you today must not be known by a third person. ”

"The minister understands," the emperor's confidant, the minister, clasped his hands into fists, bowed, and then retreated.

The emperor stood beside the bookshelf and began to ponder carefully, how to be smooth in this matter.

Concubine Jin Guifei called the palace maids and guards, and Zhang Luo wanted to go out of the palace to the temple to ask for a talisman for the emperor.

The group was on the road mightily, and when they arrived at the temple, everyone saw that Jin Guifei's posture was not simple, so they all avoided it and made way for her.

Concubine Jin walked into the temple, took the incense handed over by the little monk on the side, knelt in front of the Bodhisattva, muttered for a while, and then stood up and said to the little monk: "Little master, I want to ask for a peace charm"

"Donor, please," the little monk took her to another room.

Concubine Jin left with a group of people, and only these people who were incense dared to come forward, but they were all scared after the incense and left in a hurry.

"Donor, this is our abbot" The little monk brought Jin Guifei to the wing.

Concubine Jin looked at the old monk with his back to her: "Master, I want to ask for a peace charm"

The master turned his head when he heard the sound.

As soon as the master turned his head, Concubine Jin saw that this person was blind, and a blind man had become the abbot, and suddenly she couldn't laugh or cry: "It turns out that the abbot can't see anything."

this

The blind monk was the one who bumped into Qin Luoyi that day and then showed her his face.

"This donor, what is the difference between seeing and not seeing, the poor monk can feel with his heart, the donor asks for this talisman to please a powerful person."

Concubine Jin was stunned, and then put on a serious face, and her tone was a little horizontal: "You are a monk, what is the use of this talisman if I want it, you only say give it or not"

"The donor is a person in the palace, rest assured, the poor monk has no malice, just advises the donor, you have to spare people and spare people, so as not to be killed."

"A stinky monk, what nonsense believe it or not, this palace killed you" Jin Guifei is vicious by nature, and the most can't see others say that she is not, and what is even more hateful is that someone cursed herself today, and Jin Guifei's anger came up.

"In the land of Buddhism, please also ask the donor to accumulate virtue, don't make a taboo" The old monk smiled and called the little monk on the side: "Go and get a talisman for this donor"

Concubine Jin took the talisman and couldn't wait to leave this temple, but she met the old monk, which was really unlucky

In the evening, the emperor really responded to the words promised to Concubine Jin yesterday and came to her palace.

"See the Emperor"

As soon as the emperor came, there would be a crowd of people kneeling at the gate of the Jin Guifei Palace.

When Concubine Jin heard the voice, she immediately came out to greet her: "See the emperor"

"Get Up"

The emperor waved his sleeves, and then walked into the palace with Concubine Jin.

"Where did Concubine Ai go today" The emperor held Concubine Jin's hand and looked at her with a pampering face.

Concubine Jin was happy in her heart, so she showed it on her face: "Today, they accompanied me to the temple"

"In the temple" The emperor looked at Concubine Jin with suspicious eyes: "What did you do in the temple?"

Concubine Jin was angry when she thought of the blind old monk she saw in the temple today, but she couldn't show it in front of the emperor, so she could only suppress her anger and laugh at the emperor: "The concubine went to ask the emperor for a peace charm."

As he spoke, he took out a dark yellow triangular talisman from his sleeve, and a red rope was tied to it.

The emperor took a look, smiled with relief, and then put it away: "The concubine has a heart"

"Has the emperor had dinner?" Concubine Jin asked intimately.

The emperor stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples that were faintly painful, and his voice was full of tiredness: "It's been a busy day, and I haven't yet"

Seeing this, Concubine Jin immediately called her subordinates: "Go and make something to eat for the emperor and send it over" and then detoured behind the emperor and rubbed his temples.

Concubine Jin rubbed it for a while, and the emperor's pain was reduced a lot, and she asked casually: "Has Concubine Ai had any conflicts with the concubines of other palaces recently?"

Jin Guifei thought about it and decided to make a dozen small reports from Hua Guifei, that woman couldn't even do the trivial matter of winning over the queen mother, she was stupid to death, and keeping such a useless thing was just a disaster, so it was better to eradicate it as soon as possible: "I don't know if the emperor has heard about the maid magpie next to the third prince's concubine recently."

The emperor nodded: "Well, I heard some things from those who were on the sidelines. ”

"Then the emperor thinks that if the murderer of this matter is not Sister Hua, then who will it be" Jin Guifei first deliberately aroused some interest of the emperor, and then slowly said that Hua Guifei was not.

The emperor's eyebrows, which had just relaxed, wrinkled again, and he didn't make his own remarks: "Then who should it be in the opinion of the concubine?"

The concubine thinks it should be Sister Hua, although the concubine doesn't believe that the murderer is her, after all, what does she want, why kill a maid, this has nothing to do with her at all. But if it weren't for her, the concubine couldn't think of who it was, the emperor, think about it, this gorgeous concubine was the last person the maid magpie saw before her death, and there was a lot of conflict between the two people. ”

Seeing that the emperor didn't react and motioned for herself to continue, Concubine Jin continued: "Judging from the injuries on the maid magpie's body, this murderer is indeed Sister Hua, it may be that the magpie has some handle in Sister Hua's hand, Sister Hua wants to spend money to buy her and tell her not to say it, but the magpie doesn't listen at all, so she let her go first, and then find an opportunity to kill her secretly." ”

"It makes sense, but why did Concubine Hua confess her guilt after killing someone So, obviously, she didn't know about this matter. ”

Seeing that the emperor was a little partial to Concubine Hua, Concubine Jin added fire again: "The emperor must not be blinded by the superficial phenomenon, often the person who is the least like the murderer is the murderer, this may be the cleverness of Sister Hua, after killing someone, to confess, let us mistakenly think that she is not the murderer, but she is the real murderer, and the spearhead of all this is pointed at Sister Hua."

Dinner was delivered, and the emperor called Jingui

The concubine stopped and sat down to eat together: "Isn't the Queen Mother investigating this matter?"

"It's checking, the queen mother also thinks that the murderer is Hua Guifei, but the third prince's concubine somehow persuaded the queen mother and her old man, your majesty, don't you plan to meddle in this matter" Jin Guifei saw that the emperor didn't care much about this matter, so she was anxious.

"This is a matter of the harem, everything is the sole responsibility of the Queen Mother, I don't ask"

It seems that the emperor really has no intention of doing this, but Concubine Jin doesn't know that the emperor is only doing this for a more careful plan in the future.

"If the truth is found out in the end, Sister Hua is really the murderer, what does the emperor plan to do" Concubine Jin Guifei didn't plan to let go of Concubine Hua, so she wanted to get rid of her with the emperor's hand: "Sister Hua's family is powerful, so she has the courage to do such a thing in the harem." ”
