Chapter 79: Mercy
Hearing Emperor Yongchang say that she was ready to take the Seventh Princess to see the Empress Dowager Cui, Concubine Xian's hairs stood up for a while, but she immediately stabilized her mood and did not continue to show too much emotion, but asked a little happily: "Holy Lord, is the Empress Dowager awake?" ”
Her joy and happiness were just right, Emperor Yongchang stared at her for a while, nodded faintly and said yes, and asked Concubine Xian why she was so happy.
"Look at what you said, the Queen Mother's awakening is a great thing!" Concubine Xian smiled very sincerely: "The Queen Mother is very good to Xiaoqi, and she is also kind to Minghui and a few of them, and the concubines remember it in their hearts, and they can't wait to bow to the Queen Mother, and now that the Queen Mother has woken up, of course I am happy!" I just don't know if the Queen Mother is all right now? ”
She was apprehensive, but she tried her best to comfort herself.
No, Empress Dowager Cui should not have fully woken up, since she has not woken up, then it is impossible to speak.
Everything is still in time, there is still time to remedy.
Seeing Concubine Xian say this, Emperor Yongchang didn't say anything more, just said a few words lightly, and went out.
Gonggong Shi followed behind him step by step, and shouted softly to the saint, seeing that he stood still and did not move, he was a little panicked for a while.
Emperor Yongchang looked at the dormitory of the virtuous concubine behind him with a smile, turned around and asked coldly: "Do you think, is it the queen or the virtuous concubine?" ”
This question is really fatal, if you don't answer it well, you may really lose your life, Shi Gonggong swallowed his saliva, only felt that Rumang was on his back, and looked at Emperor Yongchang reluctantly and couldn't speak.
Emperor Yongchang didn't have to wait for him to answer, he glanced at him coldly, turned around and left.
And in the palace of Concubine Xian, as soon as she sent Emperor Yongchang away, she swept all the decorations on the table on the ground with a hideous face, and even the porcelain pieces crossed the palm of her hand as if she didn't feel it, and she only felt resentful.
Her personal palace maid Huan'er tiptoed forward to pack up all her things, and knelt down in front of her gently: "Niangniang take care of your body." ”
Concubine Xian woke up like a dream, and the whole person seemed to wake up with a thrill: "Yes, you have to take care of your body." I haven't lost yet, that old witch hasn't woken up yet, everything is still in time, this palace won't let her wake up! ”
She gritted her teeth and gritted her cheeks, stood up suddenly, and took Huan'er to the Ci'en Palace together.
There are almost ten steps and one sentry in the Ci'en Palace, and there are layers of guards, and they are all brocade guards, Concubine Xian's heart is shocked, and when she sees Cui Minglou standing under the corridor, her face becomes worse for a while.
But she still squinted her eyes, covered up the coldness in her eyes, and greeted with a smile: "Ming Lou." ”
Cui Minglou stepped forward with a lukewarm attitude and saluted: "Niang Niang Wanfu." ”
Concubine Xian bowed slightly, and when she saw that he was wearing a flying fish suit, she asked him where he was going.
Cui Minglou glanced at it: "Hui Niangniang, Xie Shanggong and Mama Wenhua are both locked up in the Shen Punishment Division, but the imperial doctor found out that this poison has been replaced, indicating that the person who poisoned it is still in this Ci'en Palace." The minister is leading people to search. ”
Search?
If Aunt Cui's head is found, won't everything fall short?
Concubine Xian smiled reluctantly and went in to take a look at Empress Dowager Cui.
There were too many people waiting, and Concubine Xian sat beside Empress Dowager Cui for a while, and then came out in a hurry.
As soon as she walked out of the door of the Ci'en Palace, she pinched her tiger's mouth to calm down, and turned her head to look at Huan'er: "You go to Aunt Cui's room." ”
Huan'er was taken aback: "Niangniang, when I go to Aunt Cui's room at this time, I'm just afraid of attracting attention." ”
"Afraid of what?" Concubine Xian's whole person suddenly calmed down again, revealing a murderous aura: "You just need to say that you are going to return Aunt Cui's shoes, and after you go, you remind Aunt Cui and let her be careful, and say that it is going to rain." ”
She said while looking at Huan'er quietly.
Huan'er was very scared, but when Concubine Xian said this, she didn't have the courage to refuse, so she could only be frightened.
Aunt Cui lived in the palace of the Queen Mother, Huan'er turned her head and walked back, she was worried all the way, very afraid that those people would stop her, but unexpectedly, she went smoothly all the way, maybe it was the dormitory of the Empress Dowager Cui who was heavily guarded by those brocade guards, and other places were much wider, she gradually relaxed her heart, and when she arrived at the door of Aunt Cui's room, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief and knocked lightly on the door.
It's just the first time I knocked on the door, but no one answered.
Is Aunt Cui not in it?
Huan'er looked puzzled, and couldn't help but knock again, but still no one answered.
She was a little anxious for a while, after all, it was not easy to come here, and it was already very high-profile to come here, if she didn't see anyone this time, she had to come again, it would be even more risky.
She couldn't help but reach for the door, only to find that it opened as soon as she pushed it.
The door is open!
She was not happy, so she hurried into the house, and looked around the house, but saw no one.
But everything is still normal.
What about people?
Huan'er frowned, staring at the furnishings in the room uneasily, seeing that there was still a cup of tea by the window, she thought about opening the teacup, stretched out her finger and flicked it slightly.
A bit of powder fell out of her fingernails and silently melted into the tea.
After doing this, she didn't mean to stay at all, and hurriedly turned around to leave, but at this moment, there was a sound behind the screen, followed by Cui Minglou turned out from behind the screen, and asked expressionlessly: "What are you doing?" ”
Huan'er was almost frightened, she never thought that Cui Minglou would be here.
How could this be?!
Why is Cui Minglou still here so late?
She was so frightened that she couldn't even speak, and her whole body seemed to have been drained of her soul, and she couldn't stop shaking.
Xiushui took a sharp step forward, pulled out the embroidered spring knife and put it directly on her neck, and asked sharply, "Are you dumb?!" Our Highness asked, what were you doing just now?! ”
Huan'er was so frightened that she trembled, this time she really couldn't help it, and her voice was choked: "I, I didn't do anything, I came to find Aunt Cui and return her shoes." ”
"Really?" Cui Minglou opened the tea with a smile and asked with a smile: "Then what's here?" Do you want me to find a doctor to come and check it out now? ”
He didn't look at Huan'er's almost frightened appearance, but said coldly: "You must know that there is only one chance, if you really don't tell the truth, then when I find out what you put here, you won't have a chance." ”
Cui Minglou is notorious, everyone knows what kind of master he is, and Huan'er cried out.
