When everyone was gone, Shen Ning threw the kitchen knife with trembling fingers.

Where did she kill a fish......

My hands were shaking.

She did it on purpose to let people know that she was abnormal.

If Xiao Junhe is crippled and she can continue as usual, it is really abnormal.

She did this, not only to deceive the queen, but also to hide from Xiao Chengyin.

Let Xiao Chengyin believe it.

"Behind closed doors...... Nobody came. Shen Ning took a deep breath, and her steps were a little vain.

Xiao Junhe took the opportunity to hug Shen Ning and said with a smile. "Lady, eat fish tonight?"

Shen Ning's stomach suddenly turned over the river, found a corner and vomited.

"Miss!"

"Princess!"

Xiao Junhe was worried and wanted to get up from the wheelchair, but his legs were weak and he fell to the ground.

"Lord Wang......" subordinates are distressed in the past.

"Ah Xiao...... I'm fine, maybe the fishy smell is too heavy. Shen Ningtu's eyes were red, and he shook his head at Xiao Junhe.

Xiao Junhe smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. "Go down, all of you."

Everyone stepped back, and Xiao Junhe stretched out his hand to Shen Ning. "Come here."

Shen Ning walked over very obediently, squatted in front of Xiao Junhe, and lay in his arms. "In the future, I will never eat fish again."

"Good ......" Xiao Junhe just smiled and replied dotingly.

"I don't see them talking about you." Shen Ning whispered.

"Hmm......" Xiao Junhe looked at Shen Ning with a fixed gaze, playing with her hair.

"Xiao Junhyuk...... You have to believe me, okay......"

Recently, Shen Ning will be flustered for no reason.

What she wants to do is really for Xiao Junhe's good.

But she was afraid that Xiao Junhe would not trust her. "If Xiao Chengyin believes in your crippled matter, he will definitely take action, in order to prevent you from walking with Queen Liu, he will definitely find a way to start with me, I want to plan it...... If I have any dealings with Xiao Chengyin, do you want to believe me? ”

In her previous life, Shen Ning had experienced too much, and she had no sense of security.

She was always afraid of losing.

"Good ......" Xiao Junhe did not hesitate.

Even if Shen Ning came to deceive him, it didn't matter.

……

Palace.

Concubine Lian is sick.

The emperor's body is not good.

finally found a suitable excuse, he could come to Zhuyuan to see her in a bright light.

"Your Majesty...... Mother, please go back. But Concubine Lian didn't see him.

The emperor was still waiting outside, even if his body was so bad that he couldn't stand, he still stood outside.

"Your Majesty......" The old eunuch's voice choked, he felt sorry for the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the mother said that she is sick, her face is haggard, and it is not suitable to see people, so let's go." The palace maid beside Concubine Lian said in embarrassment.

The emperor did not speak, just stood.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing that the emperor's figure was unstable, the eunuch shouted in a panic.

The door of the inner hall was opened, and the palace maid inside spoke. "Your Majesty...... The mother said that she was rude and could not greet her in person. ”

The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and walked inside.

"No need to bow ......"

As early as when he was in the palace, he told Lianxin that he would never have to bow to him.

It's just that...... entered the palace, in order to protect her, he had to ...... It's going to be rusty.

"Your Majesty......" Concubine Lian leaned on the bed, trying to get up.

"Are you feeling better?" The emperor sat aside and shook his head at Concubine Lian.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to come again......" Concubine Lian lowered her eyes.

It is impossible to say that there are no complaints.

When she was young, she only had him in her heart, and although he was an unfavored prince, she was still willing to marry him.

Be his wife.

On the wedding night, he promised her that as long as she was alone in this life, he would never take a concubine.

But later, he still married someone else and became the queen.

Will her ...... Leave it behind.

"In this life, the people I am most sorry for are you and Junhe......" The emperor held Concubine Lian in his arms and whispered. Junhyuk's legs are useless, not necessarily a bad thing, at least ...... It can save his life. Shen Bozhong, if you promise me, you will definitely protect him......"

Concubine Lian slowly closed her eyes, her voice choked. "If you have a choice, the concubine would rather ...... I haven't met you, I married an ordinary family, and I don't have to let my son ......"

So suffering.

"It's me who is not good......," the emperor hugged Concubine Lian's hand tighter.

The Xiao family no longer has real power in the Qin State, and the power is in the hands of the Liu family.

He, the emperor, is simply a puppet.

He has too much to do.

Originally...... If he didn't obediently be the puppet of the Liu family, how could he keep Concubine Lian and Xiao Junhe safe.

Everything he did, with a clear conscience.

"Your Majesty, He'er is stubborn, and the concubine has a bony body...... I don't know how long it will last. "She didn't want her son to be an emperor.

I just hope he lives well.

"Jun Hyuk is the child who is most like me......" the emperor nodded.

Before he dies, he will definitely pave the way for Xiao Junhe.

Even if you can't hand over the world to him, at least keep him safe.

"Your Majesty, go back." Concubine Lian was always in a hurry to drive him away.

"That's it...... Don't you want to stay a little longer? "The emperor was a little disappointed.

Concubine Lian didn't speak, her tears were hot.

She didn't want to keep him.

For so many years, she thought about it day and night, hoping that he could come to see her, even if it was good to accompany her.

But the result?

After Junhyuk was born, he didn't come once.

Didn't even come to see the kids.

Over the years, she swallowed her anger and whirled around the conspiracy of killing people in this deep palace without seeing blood, and her heart had already ...... It's cold.

"That kid named Shen Ning...... But are you really willing to follow Junhyuk? His legs are useless, how can she be willing. Concubine Lian was a little worried.

I have long heard that Shen Ning is unwilling to marry Xiao Junhe, and once cried and wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the river.

The emperor didn't say anything, and he didn't know how much Shen Ning had feelings for Xiao Junhe.

"The children's thing...... It's not for us to worry about. The emperor patted Concubine Lian's back soothingly. Lotus Heart...... Remember...... The scene when we first met? ”

Concubine Lian nodded. "Yes."

How could she forget.

She and the emperor also met at the City God Temple Fair when they were young.

The two of them signed the same red rope and came together......

At that time, he was still an unfavored prince.

She is also just an official woman.

"Your Majesty...... The body and bones of the concubine, the concubine is very clear...... Concubines...... I'm afraid it won't last long. "She knew she didn't have long to live." Concubines are just ...... Don't worry about Huer. ”

"Don't be afraid...... Don't worry. "Soon, I'll be with you, too.

……

The first snow after the beginning of winter came a little faster.

After the City God Temple, it is late autumn.

On the tenth day of Xiao Junhe's return, it was winter.

"It's snowing." Shen Ning held the stove and walked into the room. "Junhyuk...... I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my heart. ”

She always felt that something was going to happen.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The sound of the death knell came from the location of the palace.

Three rings in a row.

This is the etiquette that only the queen has when she dies.

Xiao Junhe's fingers stiffened, inexplicably...... A tingling in the heart.

"Lord Wang!"

Outside the door, the hand stumbled in.

"Lord Wang...... Concubine Lian, I went to ......"

"Smack!" The stove in Shen Ning's hand fell to the ground and fell apart.

In her previous life, she did not marry Xiao Junhe but chose Xiao Chengyin, and Concubine Lian hanged herself not long after.

In this life, she thought that she had changed Concubine Lian's fate.

"I heard that someone deliberately told Concubine Lian Niangniang the news that you were seriously injured, making her seriously ill and unconscious, and then ...... The bones of the body are not as good as day by day. ”

Shen Ning's fingers clenched until he trembled.

In addition to Xiao Chengyin, who else can there be.

His plan from the beginning was to get rid of Xiao Junhe's mother.
