Just when Jiang Ning was stunned, the palace maid named Mengyin slowly walked towards Jiang Ning with a mess all over the ground.

She walked slowly, with a dignified demeanor, the soles of her shoes gently stepping over the porcelain shards all over the ground, but her face was indescribably calm and peaceful.

"Mother, slave maid, help you get up and go to the back room first." Mengyin slowly helped Jiang Ning get up and walked inside.

Along the way, Jiang Ning saw the mess all over the ground, and felt that his heart seemed to be shattered into pieces with these gold and silver treasures.

Xu saw her discomfort, and Meng Yin smiled softly, "Niangniang doesn't have to worry about this, it's all outside the body." ”

Jiang Ning felt that her heart was instantly infarcted, and she watched herself and Mengyin holding each other's wrists, and her plain clothes were in stark contrast to Mengyin's exquisitely embroidered clothes.

For a moment, Jiang Ning gritted his teeth and sighed at the injustice of the world.

"Mother, lie down first." Mengyin helped Jiang Ning to a bed and lay down.

Jiang Ningwu lay on the bed, his thoughts chaotic.

The scene in the chamber lingered in her mind.

So, what exactly is the stuff in that room for?

Jiang Ning inexplicably thought of the long black whip on Liu Jinfu's side, the Dao whip marks on the stone pillars in the courtyard, and the extraordinary force that Liu Jinfu inadvertently displayed.

She vaguely remembered that when she first saw Liu Jinfu, Zheliu told her that the concubine was behind the gate.

All of this points to the answer that is about to come out.

This result made Jiang Ning a little reluctant to face it, she buried her face in the quilt as if she was escaping, and forcibly turned her thoughts to the vegetables and chickens in her yard.

"What do you think?"

She looked up in amazement and saw Liu Jinfu sitting on the edge of the bed looking at her.

Seeing Jiang Ning's face, Liu Jinfu was a little stunned, and then, she smiled helplessly.

"If you really like those gold, silver and porcelain, this palace will give it to you, why bother with a face for it?"

Jiang Ning didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only smile bitterly with her twice.

"Oh, this palace remembers, you feel sorry for that craftsman to react so much." Liu Jinfu blinked, and his face showed a rare girlish playfulness, "When the time comes, this palace will vent evil anger for you." ”

Seeing that she was not interested, Liu Jinfu stopped talking, and she lowered her voice and slowed down.

"Let Hongu show you your back injury." As she said this, her hands slowly stroked Jiang Ning's waist wound and gently pressed it down.

"Hiss-" The sudden dull pain made Jiang Ning gasp uncontrollably.

"In the morning, I repaired the roof for the emperor and broke my waist, and in the evening, I offended the queen in order to maintain the palace." Her palm was pressed against Jiang Ning's waist, which really soothed the soreness and weirdness.

"Jiang Qingyuan can teach such a daughter, but it makes the palace a little impressed."

However, at this moment, Jiang Ning had no intention of listening to the broken thoughts in Liu Jinfu's mouth, she raised her eyes, and from her point of view, she happened to see the green bamboo in the courtyard.

It's getting late and the temperature is dropping. The warm orange sunset fell unscrupulously on the tips of the bamboo leaves, leaving a sparkling light on the tips of the leaves.

A cold wind blew, and the bamboo pole was staggered, hiding in the shadows, and even the little golden light disappeared.

In an instant, Cuizhu stood up again, and regained the arrogance of not long ago.

In a trance, Jiang Ning felt as if he understood why the courtyard of this Frost Palace was full of bamboo.

"Do you know why the Japanese palace asked the emperor to punish you severely because of a peacock?"

Such a sentence seemed to instantly attract Jiang Ning's attention.

She straightened her waist, "Why?" ”

Liu Jinfu didn't say anything, and took advantage of Jiang Ning's momentary efforts to suddenly increase the strength in his hand.

Jiang Ning only heard a crisp sound of bones coming from his waist.

"Alright." Liu Jinfu clapped his hands, "There should be no problem with your back injury." ”

Jiang Ning held her waist and barely moved, but found that the pain in her waist had long since disappeared, however, her attention was completely on another matter.

"Why?"

Liu Jinfu squinted and smiled, his expression was like a cunning fox, "The emperor asked the palace to do this." ”

On the other side, Mu Jingzhao helped Shen Qingrong to sit down on a soft stool in the hall, he took off his hand and was about to leave.

Helplessly, Shen Qingrong leaned softly on his chest and sobbed in a low voice.

Her eyes were red, and her face was full of pity and helplessness.

Mu Jingzhao sighed helplessly, gently grabbed Shen Qingrong's arm and took her into his arms.

"You know that it is the heart disease of the concubine, why do you step on her sore spot like this?"

As soon as he said this, Shen Qingrong's sobbing sound was even worse, "The emperor knows that Ling Yue and his concubines have grown up together since childhood, and they are like sisters. Even if Ling Yue was indeed at fault, she didn't deserve to be humiliated like this. As Ling Yue's master, the concubine categorically couldn't let her suffer such a grievance. ”

Her sentence was cut to pieces by the intermittent sobbing sound.

"Such a good girl has become what she is now, how can Ling Yue get married?"

Mu Jingzhao fell into a brief silence.

Only Shen Qingrong's intermittent sobbing sound remained in the room, her injured hand hung weakly on her leg, and a faint red could be seen on the several layers of gauze.

"What's more." Shen Qingrong gritted her teeth, "Your Majesty, you have also seen the things in the secret room, and the concubines are worried."

As she said this, she cautiously raised her eyes from time to time to observe Mu Jingzhao's face.

Sure enough, the expected haze appeared on the other party's face.

"It's the concubine who lost her word."

Mu Jingzhao opened his mouth, and in the end, a touch of pity and pity appeared in his eyes.

"She's all like this now, why should I be so her-"

"The concubine is also for the sake of the country." Shen Qingrong raised her hand full of gauze and slowly pasted it towards the back of Mu Jingzhao's hand, she adjusted her posture and gently rubbed the back of Mu Jingzhao's hand in a small area wrapped in gauze.

It seems to be a compromise, it seems to be a reminder.

"This tiger wolf who has pulled out its claws is also a tiger wolf."

Mu Jingzhao didn't say anything more, he lowered his eyes, and his gaze was fixed on Shen Qingrong's gauze-wrapped hands.

The gaze seemed to pass through the layers of gauze and fell on the wound where the flesh was flying.

He let go of the hand holding Shen Qingrong and slowly got up.

"I suddenly thought that there was something important to deal with, so I said goodbye first, and you should take care of yourself."

He had only taken two steps before he stopped as if he had thought of something.

"As for the investigation, let's stop it for now."

Shen Qingrong didn't say anything more, only nodded and watched Mu Jingzhao leave.

Until Mu Jingzhao's figure completely disappeared into the palace, Shen Qingrong sat up straight in an instant, and the decadent aura on her face was instantly swept away, leaving only a smile that watched the show.
