"Slave and maid, see Your Majesty!"

Just as He Hongying was thinking about how to splash this dirty water on Zhu Jiu, she suddenly heard a report from a slave outside.

The palace maids of Changhua Palace have been carefully cultivated by her, and she knows that the other party is deliberately reminding herself that Xuanyuan Che is here, so He Hongying tidied up her clothes and went out to greet her casually.

"The concubines see Your Majesty, I wonder if Your Majesty has had dinner? If you came here so late, why don't you prepare a bowl of soup for you?"

As soon as the words fell, He Hongying glanced at the calligraphy and painting, and the calligraphy and painting were about to retreat, but Xuanyuan Che's eyes fell on He Hongying, and his tone was flat: "No need, Gu came here today because I have something to judge you."

Interrogation and interrogation are different, the former is based on definite evidence, while the latter retains some dignity for both sides.

For the sake of Zhu Jiu, Xuanyuan Che didn't even care about their friendship?

He Hongying was unwilling in her heart, put her fingers in her sleeves, and pinched her palms with her nails hard, before she reluctantly smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what you want to ask your concubine?"

While talking, he also glanced at Jianqiu and calligraphy and painting, but before the two of them could go out, they were stopped by Tang Yi.

Tang Yi glanced at them lightly: "Since Your Majesty has something to come over to ask Niangniang, this matter is related to Changhua Palace, and I also ask the two aunts to stay here and listen together."

Jian Qiu was more breathless than calligraphy and painting, and when he heard this, his body trembled, and he almost showed his flaws.

It was still calligraphy and painting that supported her in time, and took a step back with a respectful expression, so that Tang Yi did not make the next move against them.

Seeing that these two maids couldn't get out, He Hongying also knew that Xuanyuan Che might not give up if he didn't tell her a result this time.

He sat back at the table and poured a cup of tea for Xuanyuan Che.

Xuanyuan Che didn't sit down, but came to her side and looked down at her condescendingly: "I heard that in your palace, two guards went out today? What did you tell them to go out?"

"Your Majesty really cares about the concubines, and even knows who in the palace of the concubines is out."

He Hongying's heart tightened slightly, but she smiled quietly: "Since Your Majesty is here to inquire about their whereabouts, the concubine will call them up and let them tell them where they are going, so that Your Majesty can rest assured."

As soon as the words fell, she immediately looked at the calligraphy and painting, and said, "Calligraphy and painting, don't you call someone?"

"Yes, sis."

Calligraphy and painting lowered their eyes and walked outside the palace.

This time, Tang Yi didn't stop him, and Xuanyuan Che was also waiting in the room, knocking on the table one after another, but his eyes always fell on the bright moon outside the window, and he didn't look at He Hongying.

It was as if one more look at her would dirty your eyes.

Jian Qiu really felt that the atmosphere in this room was a little stiff and weird, so she lowered her head even more, and even slowed down her breathing, for fear that someone would notice her presence.

Whether it is Xuanyuan Che or He Hongying, none of these two masters were offended by her.

After a while, calligraphy and painting brought Jiang Yuan and Jiang Shao up.

"Your Majesty."

The two saluted Xuanyuan Che, and the smell of blood came from Jiang Yuan's body, Xuanyuan Che immediately looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly, "How did this injury come about?"

His wounds were in the waist and abdomen, as if he had been stabbed by brute force by someone who did not know martial arts.

As long as he is a master, this injury cannot be hidden, Jiang Yuan simply lowered his eyes, and said bluntly: "Today, my subordinates left the palace and clashed with a civilian, who was short-tempered and mistakenly thought that I was going to do something to his wife and children, so he stabbed his subordinates, but the subordinates did not fight back."

Jiang Shao lowered his head and did not speak.

He Hongying frowned slightly, and reprimanded him: "Look at you, I just asked you to go out of the palace to buy some rouge gouache and come back, but you can't even do this little thing, and it's a shame for the palace!"

He immediately saluted Xuanyuan Che and apologized: "Failing to restrain the people under his hands is the fault of the concubine, please forgive your majesty."

Xuanyuan Che looked at Jiang Yuan with a smile, "Where, when, and who did you have a conflict with?" One by one, I will tell Lone to listen, and Lone will ask someone to check it, if what you say is correct, Lone will not pursue your selfishness this time

Since leaving the palace, but if you have half a lie, you will be punished by the nine clans!"

Jiang Yuan is He Hongying's person, if he is punished by the Nine Clans for no reason, what will people outside think of her, Concubine He?

At that time, she is already isolated and helpless in the court, and it is even more impossible for her to get the help of other courtiers, even if she is pregnant with a dragon child, it is just to make a wedding dress for others, how can she give birth to this child at that time?

He Hongying's fingers clenched, and she couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Xuanyuan Che, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Your Majesty is really observant, but you have every opportunity, so leave this kind of trivial matter to the concubine."

Speaking of this, her eyes flashed slightly, as if she knew that Xuanyuan Che would not agree, so she deliberately said: "It just so happens that the concubine has also heard about some things recently, whether it is the sudden flood at the end of summer, or the successive illnesses of the ministers of the court and the central government for no reason, it seems that it is related to the queen mother."

"Your Majesty came over today, and I didn't see Mr. Wei following you, isn't Mr. Wei also sick?"

She asked knowingly, which made people angry.

Xuanyuan Che looked at this woman with a cold face, regretting leaving her alive countless times.

"Concubine He has something to say."

This Jiang Yuan Jiang Shao obviously still has a bloody aura on his body, he has just returned from an assassination mission outside, he has been a killer with Zhu Jiu for a period of time, and he knows and is very sensitive to the breath and demeanor of the killer.

If it were an ordinary person, He Hongying might be able to deceive her with this set of rhetoric.

But in his case, this set of rhetoric does not work well.

It didn't even work, it only made Xuanyuan Che more disgusted with her.

He Hongying didn't care at all whether her lies were exposed, and Jiang Yuan and Jiang Shao were not people who talked a lot, if they were really greedy for life and afraid of death, and were willing to betray He Hongying for their lives at this moment, then they had already been cut down by him long before they begged Xuanyuan Che for mercy.

Sometimes, talking less is also a life-saving ability.

As soon as Xuanyuan Che's voice fell, He Hongying looked at him with some hesitation, "The concubine does have something to say to you, but...... I'm afraid you'll be angry."

If the Son of Heaven is angry, not everyone can afford the consequences, at this moment, He Hongying wrote fear and pity on her face, although she is not as beautiful and moving as Zhu Jiu, nor as gentle and beautiful as Leng Qingxiu, but a pair of peach blossom eyes are particularly charming.

With tears in his eyes and a shaky look, it is indeed pitiful.

Xuanyuan Che was indifferent, and looked at her lightly: "Lonely forgive you for your innocence, but you say it's okay."

He wanted to see what tricks were waiting for him in addition to letting these two guards assassinate Wei Changshou!

Sure enough, as soon as his voice fell, He Hongying quickly told Xuanyuan Che what she knew.

It turned out that there were rumors among the people that the recent disasters and disasters in the Xuanyuan Kingdom were related to the new queen that their emperor married.

Everyone regards Zhu Jiu as ominous, so Wei Changshou's accident this time must have something to do with Zhu Jiu!
