The queen's words seemed to trigger some specific memory mechanism.

Everyone in the hall looked at the petite girl who knelt down in the hall, and their eyes were a little more in awe.

That's right, no matter how she is, she is the concubine of Prime Minister Jiang Qingyuan's family, even if the emperor looks at Jiang Qingyuan's thin face, he doesn't dare to do anything with her.

Mu Jingzhao coughed lightly twice, "What the queen said is very true, it is normal for Concubine Ning to not understand the rules when she first arrives, if you want to be harsh, it will seem that we are a little unreasonable." He turned his head to look at Liu Jinfu, smiled slightly apologetically and reached out to shake Liu Jinfu's shoulder, "I am also very sad that something like this happened in Jinxiu, and I will definitely compensate you twice afterwards, okay?" ”

At this point, Liu Jinfu couldn't make any more trouble, so he had to twitch his shoulders slightly and nodded.

"Alright, let's all step down."

The people around began to disperse, and Jiang Ning heard the sound and pulled the willow to prepare to leave.

"Concubine Ning, you stay."

————

Mu Jingzhao took Jiang Ning to a side hall, dismissed his subordinates, and ordered Jiang Ning to close the doors and windows.

In the room with the doors and windows closed, Jiang Ning and Mu Jingzhao confronted each other silently.

Smoke continued to rise from the incense burner on the side, dissipate into the air, and was inhaled into her nose.

This was originally a fragrance used by the nobles in the palace to calm the mind and recuperate, but this aroma at this moment not only did not make Jiang Ning feel half peaceful, but instead evoked some unpleasant memories for her.

Seeing her distracted, Mu Jingzhao stepped forward and patted her lightly on the shoulder.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning bounced away like a frightened bird.

"Don't worry, I'm coming to you today to talk about something important."

Jiang Ning's eyes were palpitating when she looked at him, but despite this, she still found a square stool far away from Mu Jingzhao and sat down, "What's the matter?" ”

Seeing her reaction, Mu Jingzhao didn't say anything, and sat down with her.

Mu Jingzhao tapped his knuckles on the table, "I don't talk nonsense anymore, I hope I can cooperate with you." ”

"Cooperation?"

There was a heavy inhalation in the air, "To put it simply, I hope you can, kill me." ”

Jiang Ning raised his head and met Mu Jingzhao's eyes a little uneasy.

Inexplicably, she thought of her identity as the prime minister's daughter, and felt a little more confident in her heart.

So, Jiang Ning put forward his own advice to Mu Jingzhao very sincerely, "If you are sick, go to the imperial doctor." ”

Mu Jingzhao didn't speak, just glared at her expressionlessly.

Inexplicably, Jiang Ning felt a burst of imperial qi surging towards her like a tide, Jiang Ning's feet softened, he slid down from the chair, and knelt down in front of Mu Jingzhao.

"The villain knows his mistake, and the villain deserves death!" Jiang Ning knelt on the ground, nodding like pounding garlic.

Seeing her like this, Mu Jingzhao's gaze softened slightly, "Do you remember what you said to me on the night of your wedding?" ”

The girl's body, which trembled like a chicken cub, trembled suddenly, and she looked up hesitantly, "Does the emperor believe what the villain said?" ”

Mu Jingzhao was noncommittal, "With a family like the Jiang family, it is impossible for the daughter who taught her to kill chickens, farm the land, and twist hairpins." He paused slightly, got up, and paced towards Jiang Ning, "I listen to what you said in the cold palace every day." ”

A well-defined face suddenly approached Jiang Ning, and at that moment, she seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.

Fragments flashed alternately in Jiang Ning's mind.

"I'm with the emperor, but the childhood sweetheart who grew up together, the first time the emperor saw me, he clamored for me to be his wife."

"That year, the Lantern Festival of the Yuan Festival, the red lights were thousands of miles, and I was still young and climbed the city wall and accidentally fell. It was the emperor who was not afraid of life and death, and used his body as a shield to protect me in his arms, and at that moment, I was determined not to marry him. ”

"That year, I was just in time, and in order to wash my hands and make soup for the emperor, I almost burned the kitchen, and the emperor ate a whole table of charred food without changing his color, but his eyes were red when he saw the burns on my hands."

……

In the past, the words she put in front of the palace people were overwhelmingly attacking Jiang Ning, and she was dizzy, as if she understood what it meant to be a disaster.

Seeing Mu Jingzhao's face getting closer and closer, Jiang Ning suddenly knew everything in his heart.

This so-called cooperation is just that the emperor wants her to pay the price for her previous offense that she did not know the gravity of.

She looked at Mu Jingzhao's face getting closer and closer, and her whole body trembled so much that she almost burst into tears, "The villain knows that the emperor is wrong, and the villain no longer dares to arrange the emperor privately." ”

Mu Jingzhao didn't speak, just squatted down not far in front of her, he looked at Jiang Ning and put his hand in his arms.

Jiang Ning trembled and retreated, his eyes widened in horror, could it be that he wanted to kill someone?

She curled into a ball with her hands on her head, but the expected knife did not fall on her.

Opening his eyes with some hesitation, Jiang Ning saw that a huge gold ingot was lying in Mu Jingzhao's outstretched palm.

"Most of the scenes in the story in your words take place in the folk, as far as I know, Jiang Qingyuan's daughter is not out of the door, if she only relies on fabrication, it is impossible to make up such a vivid picture."

Jiang Ning didn't seem to be able to listen to Mu Jingzhao's words anymore, she stared at the shining gold ingot in Mu Jingzhao's hand.

"I've found someone to investigate everything you said, and it's true."

Mu Jingzhao looked at him with interest, and his palms suddenly closed, as if he held Jiang Ning's entire fate in his hands.

"I know everything about you."

————

A month ago, in the imperial capital, on the corner of an inconspicuous wall on North Street.

Dozens of residents of different ages and different clothes sat on low benches lined up with melon seeds and tea, and were looking intently at the corner of the wall.

In the depths of the crowd, Jiang Ning, a girl dressed in plain linen, cleared her throat and spoke to everyone with a nervous expression, "I saw that the thief was holding a spear and let out a loud shout, and the spear stabbed straight towards the female general's face, and the head of the spear broke through the air, making a sharp sound, rolling up a gust of air in the air, which made the female general's hair fly. ”

Everyone instantly held their breath, and even the old man who was eating melon seeds the most vigorously at the end of the crowd twisted the empty melon seed shell in his hand and held his breath.

"However, the spear suddenly stopped when the female general was about to reach an inch in front of her forehead, and the thief was startled, and looked up at the female general, only to see——"

Everyone's eyes widened instantly, and they stretched their necks to look in the direction of Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning, on the other hand, closed his mouth quietly at this time, took a big sip of the tea in his hand, and stopped talking.

"See what?" The girl in the front row got up angrily, took out a copper coin and threw it on the bamboo plate in front of Jiang Ning.

As the protests continued to sound, the audience in the seats got up one after another, reluctantly took out copper coins and put them into the bamboo plate in front of Jiang Ning.

"What did you see?"

"Good girl, just talk about the latter point, just a little."

As the screams continued to sound, the emotions of the crowd continued to become fierce and indignant.

What's more, he grabbed the corner of Jiang Ning's clothes and began to beg.

However, even so, Jiang Ning only smiled faintly and resolutely fell off the board.

Ignoring the sighing audience, Jiang Ning happily packed up his outfit and prepared to leave.

"I'll see you all here at the same time tomorrow."

Jiang Ning carefully packed the silver, moved his aching limbs, waved his hand at the audience, and walked towards the alley behind him.

Jiang Ning walked in the alley with the money bag in her hand, and at this hour, she usually went to a wonton stall in the depths of the alley to eat hot wontons.

It was getting late, and the color of the small piece of sky in the alley began to become rich, and the smell of food from nowhere filled the entire alley, with the occasional few vendors hurrying past with their poles.

Jiang Ning walked briskly towards the corner with a happy face, and the moment she turned the corner, she heard a muffled sound coming from the back of her head, and then, she lost consciousness.

She didn't know how long she had been asleep.

By the time she woke up again, the pain in her head hadn't completely subsided.

After a period of dizziness, Jiang Ning subconsciously raised his hand, wanting to rub the back of his head with a dull pain, but suddenly realized that his hands and feet couldn't move.

A hot tingling sensation embedded in her wrist, Jiang Ning lowered her head to see that her hands and feet were tightly tied by finger-thick hemp rope.

To be precise, her whole body was tightly tied with hemp rope.

Jiang Ning tried to struggle for a while, and found that the rope had no room to loosen at all.

She opened her mouth to call, but found that her mouth was tightly gagged with a sackcloth.

Jiang Ning exhaled deeply, trying to calm his mind.

Soon, she accepted the fact that she had been kidnapped.

But what Jiang Ning couldn't figure out was that she was just a small person on the street who lived by storytelling, with no money, no power, no color and no appearance, what was the reason why the person who kidnapped her went to such great lengths.

She hung her head, trying to breathe, and suddenly realized that she was too panicked, completely unaware of the unusual nature of the kidnapping.

Although there was a piece of cloth in front of her eyes, she could vaguely tell from the subtle light of the cloth that it was a red cloth.

And what she was wearing at this time was talking about a red wedding dress with exquisite embroidery.

The ground under his feet shook, and the cheers and suona in his ears were endless.

Jiang Ning shook suddenly, and she suddenly realized that she was on a sedan chair.

She was in the queue to be sent off.

She combed through her memories before she fell unconscious, trying to find some clues.

However, no matter how much she recalled, she couldn't find any information about the kidnapping.

In desperation, Jiang Ning tilted his body violently and fell to the side.

Despite this, the hijab on her head was still strong on her head, and only a slight red light leaked out.

Just when Jiang Ning was lying in the sedan chair at a loss, the sedan chair gradually stopped and landed.

The curtain of the sedan chair was slowly lifted.
