Chapter 176: She wants to ask clearly
Shi Yu's expression remained unchanged, and he slowly walked to the side and sat down.
"Qiushuang is the grandmother by my side, what is the queen mother looking for her?"
When she came back from the Pingyang Hou Mansion, she immediately instructed Qiushuang not to see the Empress Dowager Lin again, and at the same time asked people to protect her.
After all, once the matter of pretending to be seriously injured is exposed, it is very likely that Empress Dowager Lin will suspect that Qiu Shuang has betrayed her, so she will find trouble with Qiu Shuang.
"The emperor still don't pretend anymore, you pretend to be close to deceiving the mourning family, do you dare to say that Qiushuang doesn't know about this matter?" Empress Dowager Lin was full of anger and stared at Shi Yu.
If it was really poisoned, how could it suddenly be alive.
There is also the news that her brother sent someone to hand over to the palace, she was terrified when she saw it, if this matter was a trap for the Lin family from the beginning, then Qiushuang had definitely betrayed herself!
"Why didn't the queen mother believe it, it was Lin Huaijin who developed the antidote in time and detoxified me."
"Humph!" Empress Dowager Lin snorted coldly, "The mourning family has already inquired clearly, it was Nie Qingsang who asked you to go to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion to save people, and you came out of the Hanguang Palace, and before that, there was no rumor that you had been detoxified." This kind of nonsense, the mourning family will not believe it! ”
"Well, it seems that you can't fool the queen mother." Shi Yu shrugged his shoulders lightly and sighed seriously, "It's really a pity, after all...... He took ten thousand taels of silver from his mother. ”
"Nie Shiyu!" Empress Dowager Lin slapped her palm on the table on the side of her, "How could the mourning family give birth to such an unfilial son as you!" ”
"Instead of reprimanding me here, the queen mother should think about what kind of person you are in the matter of being a mother."
Shi Yu picked up the teacup on the side, took a slow sip of tea, lifted his eyelids and looked at Empress Dowager Lin.
"You threaten me with autumn frost while planting chess pieces around me. You asked her to get rid of Nie Zhaoyi, but I fell into the hands of the bandits. And this time the poisoning, although it was fake, but after the queen mother heard about it, did she feel a trace of guilt in her heart? ”
Empress Dowager Lin choked, and her eyes revealed a little weakness.
"The mourning family doesn't want to do this, it's just ......"
"Enough!" Shi Yu put down the teacup in his hand, "I don't have time to play any tricks on this mother, to discuss who is right and who is wrong, in short, Qiushuang can't be handed over to you." The son also advised the queen mother to toss less, so that she might be able to live longer. ”
"Bastard! You dare to threaten the mourning family, you ......"
"Come on, send the Queen Mother back to Ci'an Hall!" Shi Yu commanded outside.
The next moment, the guards walked in, and with them came in Qiushuang.
"The slave has seen the emperor." Autumn Frost bowed.
Shi Yu frowned, in the matter of the Lin family, Qiushuang is a witness, and nothing can happen.
But...... If you don't ask some words clearly, I'm afraid that Qiushuang will never be able to make up her mind.
"Just ask." Shi Yu stood up and spoke to Qiushuang, and after speaking, he glanced at the Empress Dowager Lin again, "I advise the queen mother not to act rashly, if something happens to Qiushuang later, I can't guarantee that the queen mother will leave here alive." ”
"You dare!" Mrs. Lin's color changed sharply.
"I do what I say." Dropping this sentence, Shi Yu walked out directly.
The maidservants who followed the Empress Dowager Lin were already guarding outside the palace, leaving only the Empress Dowager Lin and Qiushuang.
"You, you dare to betray the mourning family, aren't you afraid that the mourning family will ...... your son?"
"Is he still alive?" Autumn Frost suddenly spoke.
"What?" Empress Dowager Lin was stunned for a moment, then reacted, lowered her face and spoke, "You already know?" ”
Although he had already known this result, but now that he heard the words of Empress Dowager Lin with his own ears, Qiushuang's legs were still weak, and he suddenly fell to the ground.
"He, how did he die?"
Empress Dowager Lin looked at Qiushuang's appearance coldly, and her expression was unmoved, "I fell into the well and drowned because I was playful." ”
Qiushuang's breathing was stagnant again, and the dense pain in the heart was like a needle prick, and after a while, he raised his head hatefully, looked at the Empress Dowager Lin and said: "The Queen Mother, the slave has served you for many years, why are you so ruthless and keep the slave in the dark!" ”
"Joke, even if you serve the mourning family for a long time, you are only a slave after all, and the mourning family can keep the life of your evil seed, which is already a great mercy. What's more, he fell into the well for a short time, what does it have to do with the mourning family, and why does the mourning family want to tell you! ”
The more she talked about the back, the faster Empress Dowager Lin spoke, as if like this, she could take advantage of the reason and have the upper hand.
"But you know!" Qiushuang suddenly said loudly, "But you know it...... Knowing that he is my only hope, I have done so many things for him, why is this happening......"
For that child, she has guarded the Queen Mother's secret for so many years and helped her cover it up.
For the sake of that child, she even did not hesitate to deceive and betray another child, a child she grew up watching.
But the result?
She obeyed the order to harm the five princes, but her child had already lost her life!
"Oh, retribution, what retribution!"
Empress Dowager Lin looked at Qiu Shuang, who was falling to the ground and laughing constantly, looking sad and crazy, her hands in her sleeves were clenched, and her heart swelled with a little nervousness.
"You don't have to resent the mourning family, in fact, you should also know in your heart that if you didn't have that child as a handle, the mourning family might have gotten rid of you a long time ago!"
Although Qiushuang has always been by her side, she won't even trust the Lin family when it comes to pretending to be a prince, how can she trust a slave.
Qiushuang was stunned for a moment, Empress Dowager Lin's words made her seem to remember something, and gradually stopped laughing.
"The Queen Mother, the slave and the ...... back then Did you already know about him? ”
Empress Dowager Lin narrowed her eyes, "The mourning family doesn't understand what you're talking about." ”
"At the beginning, after the slave and his affairs were exposed, instead of blaming the slave and maid, you acquiesced to our dealings. Until the slave maid was pregnant, he was transferred away for violating the palace rules, is this really accidental? ”
Every time Qiushuang said one more word, the coldness in his heart increased, and the whole person seemed to be frozen.
The evasion, fear and suspicion in her eyes seemed to be pulling each other, and in the end, she couldn't help but want to know the truth, stubbornly tilted her head and stared at the Empress Dowager Lin intently.
Empress Dowager Lin secretly took a breath, and seeing that things had come to this point, she finally spoke.
"So far, it doesn't hurt to tell you, the chance encounter between you and that guard was arranged by the mourning family. If you don't hold on to your handle, how can you ensure that you can hide the secret for the mourning family! As for the later ......"
Empress Dowager Lin paused slightly, and her eyes swept the autumn frost frozen on the ground with contempt, like an ant sweeping through the dust.
"Being pregnant, the child in your womb has become the best handle, and that guard naturally has no need to continue to exist. So the mourning family let people get rid of him under the pretense of being transferred! ”
