The entire hall fell silent at once.

Everyone listened quietly to the queen's story, looking at each other one by one, as if they already had the answer in their hearts.

After all, they hadn't seen the bloody scene with their own eyes, and their sanity had not yet been dominated by terror, and it was easy to analyze it to get the answer.

There are only two people who can wantonly kill people in the palace.

One is the emperor, the other -

Some people's eyes have been vaguely cast on Jiang Huaiyin's back.

The emperor also calmed down, and looked at the empress with a gloomy face, without the slightest pity.

can provoke Jiang Huaiyin to kill in the palace, and the queen can be regarded as capable!

"Since it is a matter of the harem, then retreat from the dynasty first, stay with the commander, and go to Changchun Palace with me!"

When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to be curious about the struggle in the harem, and they left one after another.

Li Xiang and Shen Guogong glanced at each other, and they both saw a complicated look in each other's eyes.

After the queen's participation, Lord Xu was saved.

But the New Year's ceremony should also be the final word.

When everyone left, Jiang Huaiyin's immobile figure slowly turned around.

He felt a little itchy on the back of his hand, and crossed his hands in the wide sleeves, scratching shallowly as he walked.

The emperor stepped down from the high platform and couldn't help but stop Jiang Huaiyin, "Ninth brother, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Jiang Huaiyin stopped in front of the queen, and from a distance, it seemed that the person who the queen knelt down to worship was actually him.

There was an indescribable coldness in his slightly drooping eyes, and he shook his head and said, "Since only Changchun Palace has died, then the queen must have done something wrong, right?" ”

The queen subconsciously looked up at Jiang Huaiyin, and she seemed to see a strong killing intent in Jiang Huaiyin's indifferent eyes.

couldn't help but retreat in horror and stayed away from Jiang Huaiyin.

"This palace is not, this palace has always been upright-"

"Dignified?" Jiang Huaiyin sneered and interrupted the queen's words.

The back of his hand became more and more itchy, as if Murong Xi was right next to him, blowing wind in his ear and expressing his refutation of the queen's words.

Scratched the back of his hand casually, "That is the case, that king has the courage to guide a clear path for the queen." ”

He paused, leaned over slightly, his long narrow phoenix eyes were like hungry wolves in the dark night, and every flicker was a mockery of his prey.

"There are countless people in Changchun Palace, why did these seventeen people die? The queen might as well go back and check it out. ”

After that, Jiang Huaiyin brushed his sleeves and left.

Silence returned to the Taihe Temple.

The queen sat slumped on the ground, stunned and looking up, her red lips trembling slightly.

"No, it can't be, I don't think that's the case."

The emperor looked at the mad empress, his face full of disgust, "What did the empress do?" ”

Not long ago, the eldest prince had just offended Jiang Huaiyin and entered the Zongren Mansion for a while, and in order to protect the eldest prince, the emperor ordered him not to appear in front of Jiang Huaiyin's eyes before the end of the year.

As soon as the son stabilized, the queen made another fuss.

Do the mother and son have to force the emperor to kill everyone in the palace to keep the secret for them?

"No, the concubine is all for Your Majesty," the queen came to her senses, knelt down and crawled towards the emperor, grabbed his dragon robe fiercely, and told the emperor about yesterday's medicine.

After hearing this, the emperor was silent.

Jiang Huaiyin is not close to women, which is a well-known fact throughout the country.

It is also the reason why he is reluctant to move Jiang Huaiyin for the time being.

A regent who has no heirs, as long as he slowly draws it up, the country will still be in his hands after all.

But just in case.

What the queen said was true, Jiang Huaiyin touched Murong Xi, and then Murong Xi had an heir-

The emperor's face was completely gloomy.

Throwing the dragon robe, he snorted coldly at the queen: "The queen has been frightened a lot today, from now on, she will recuperate in Changchun Palace, and the New Year's ceremony will be fully handled by Concubine Li." ”

The empress stared at the emperor in disbelief, "Your Majesty, the concubines are just in a panic, and the matter of the ceremony will never be delayed." ”

The largest palace banquet of the year has always been presided over by the queen.

Now she wants a concubine to steal her limelight?

The queen's heart was indescribably cold.

The emperor said, "I see that you are not in a panic, but in a moment of confusion!" Who do you think Jiang Huaiyin is? Why do you think your good son was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion? ”

In a few words, the emperor almost gritted his teeth, and the thoughts of waste that were pressed in his heart spread to his brain again.

"If it were him, he would kill the emperor as soon as possible!"

After the emperor finished speaking, he kicked the queen away, called Xiang Commander and Ji Gonggong, and drove Cining Palace.

Before leaving, he left a sentence: "Before I allow the queen to be grounded, go to see the emperor and ask the truth about the Zongren Mansion!" ”

The queen looked at the emperor's back with a disgraced face, her lips pursed, and her heart beat abnormally.

Did she miss something?

-

With the help of Shen Yue and Bai Lu, Murong Xi was busy all afternoon before he could make a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings that could be handled.

Eyes flushed with excitement.

Raising his arm and wiping his nose with his sleeve, Murong Xi turned his head to look at Rust, "What time is it?" Why hasn't the prince returned home? ”

Rust: "It should be soon, my subordinates will go and take a look." ”

After Rusty finished speaking, he ran away.

Shen Yue raised her eyes to look at Murong Xi, and just wanted to praise her princess's ingenuity, only to find that Murong Xi's delicate little face was full of white powder, and the clothes on her body were no exception.

"Princess, while the princess has not returned to the house, the slave maid will wait for the princess to change clothes, right?"

Murong Xi lowered her head and patted the hem of her skirt, stirring up a white dust.

The embarrassment is a little embarrassed, but the victory is to show her "good intentions".

Relying on this little detail to add points, I can get back Gyokuro paste in one fell swoop!

"No, you don't." Murong Xi showed a sly smile and stared at the hem of her skirt.

Feeling that it wasn't enough, grab the remaining cornstarch and "embellish" it on the skirt.

The egret immediately understood and proposed, "Princess, do you want to sprinkle some on your sideburns?" ”

"Yes." Murong Xi's eyes lit up, "Quick." ”

Shen Yue also understood the thoughts of the two, and after the three of them operated, Murong Xi instantly became a "face person".

She asked the two proudly, "How is it?" Can you see that I'm working hard? ”

When the egret and Shen Yue heard the sound, their expressions froze for a moment, and they suddenly knelt down.

Murong Xi opened her arms in surprise and looked down at the skirt stained with cornstarch, "What's wrong?" It's too boastful—"

"Slave and maid see the prince!" The egret suddenly interrupted Murong Xi's words, making Murong Xi stunned on the spot.

Because he was standing behind the door, Murong Xi didn't see that Jiang Huaiyin had come to the kitchen.

I didn't hear anything.

I don't know how much he saw the previous show.

Murong Xi's lips trembled slightly, she cursed a few words, and when she turned around, she changed her face with a respectful and gentle smile, and she was not surprised to see Jiang Huaiyin standing outside the door, "I've seen the king—"

"What's wrong with your face, Lord Wang?" Murong Xi's smile froze on her face, and she exclaimed uncontrollably.

I saw that Jiang Huaiyin's fair and handsome face was covered with dense red rashes at the moment.

Even the neck suffered!

Murong Xi's heart skipped a beat, who came to tell her that Jiang Huaiyin definitely didn't become so miserable because of the jade dew cream!
