Ah Yao looked back at Concubine Wan in confusion, and asked with a smile, "What is Niangniang doing?" ”

Li Lin was also puzzled by Concubine Wan's attitude, she tugged at Concubine Wan's sleeve and whispered, "Mother, what are you doing?" ”

"It's none of your business, don't interject."

After leaving a word, Concubine Wan walked straight to Ah Yao and Peony.

"The emperor has been in poor health recently, you should know better than anyone else, don't bother the emperor about this kind of trivial matter, this palace is a concubine in the harem, and this right to dispose of it is still there."

Ah Yao asked curiously: "Niangniang has rarely asked about trivial matters in the palace, why do you have to take care of the affairs of a cold palace maid today?" ”

"Presumptuous! Are you questioning Hongu? ”

"A-Yao doesn't dare, A-Yao just thinks it's strange and wants to ask Niangniang to answer her doubts."

When she saw Concubine Wan for the first time, she felt that Concubine Wan was amiable, and she was a friend of Soho, so she also had a kind and good impression of Concubine Wan.

But as she got along with each other later, she felt more and more strange about Concubine Wan.

Not only is Concubine Wan strange, but also the third prince who has a strange illness is also strange.

Especially at this moment, it was even more strange that Concubine Wan had to stop her from taking peony out of the palace.

Concubine Wan glanced at Peony coldly and said, "This palace is not to embarrass you and this palace maid, this palace is to maintain the rules of the palace."

If you take her away from the cold palace today, then others will follow suit, and in the long run, the rules of the palace will be gone. ”

"So Niangniang won't let me take the peony today?"

Concubine Wan said: "That's nature." ”

Peony looked at A-Yao with a nervous face, and almost begged her not to leave herself.

Seeing that A-Yao didn't speak, Concubine Wan said in a deep voice: "Peony, don't come over quickly, this palace will let the forbidden army send you back to the cold palace." ”

"Miss Yao......"

"It's useless for you to beg anyone, if you make a mistake in the palace, you will be punished according to the rules of the palace."

Peony's eyes turned red, but she was still standing behind Ah Yao.

Concubine Wan's face sank, and she scolded coldly: "Don't come over quickly." ”

Peony glanced at A-Yao and reluctantly took a step.

Yao grabbed her wrist and turned to look at her, "Wait." ”

"Girl......"

Ah Yao smiled and said to Concubine Wan: "Actually, I forgot to tell Niangniang just now that Peony was punished to the cold palace because of Feng Hai, and what happened back then was just a misunderstanding. ”

"Feng Hai is dead, you say a misunderstanding is a misunderstanding?"

"The Mother ......"

Li Lin stepped forward again, trying to persuade Concubine Wan, but was given a blank look by Concubine Wan.

Li Lin looked at Ah Yao in embarrassment, and moved her lips, "Ah Yao......"

A-Yao gave her a look and shook her head to signal her not to speak.

"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, let the emperor have the final say, I'll take the peony to see the emperor, explain the things of the year to the emperor, and the emperor will make the final decision."

"Stop!"

"Niangniang doesn't have to worry about the emperor's body, I am also a doctor, I will not let the emperor have anything to do."

After leaving these words, Ah Yao took the peony and walked straight towards the imperial study.

Concubine Wan stood in place in a fit of rage, her hands clasped tightly together.

Watching Ah Yao walk away, Li Lin approached Concubine Wan, "Mother, why did you ...... just now?"

"Shut up!"

Li Lin was taken aback by Concubine Wan's fierce appearance, in her impression, the mother concubine was gentle and never said a word to her.

What's going on today?

"Mother, are you alright?" Li Lin asked cautiously.

Concubine Wan gradually calmed down her emotions, and smiled at her with an apologetic face, "Linlin, I'm sorry, the concubine didn't rush at you just now, don't take it to heart." ”

Li Lin asked you to hold Concubine Wan's arm, "I know, I won't go to my heart." ”

Concubine Wan patted her hand and said softly, "Aren't you the best friend with A-Yao, what do you think of what happened just now?" ”

"A-Yao, she may really have her own reasons, so don't blame her anymore."

"Okay, then I don't blame her."

"Hmm."

Li Lin happily took Concubine Wan's arm and left, and the moment she turned around, Concubine Wan's face sank.

……

Ah Yao came to the imperial study with Peony and told the emperor the truth about Peony and Feng Hai.

After hearing this, the emperor's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.

Feng Hai is the person he serves closely, but he secretly interacts with the women of the harem, no matter who he interacts with, it is a big crime.

If such a thing spreads, where will the face of the royal family be? Where is his face?

He took a deep breath and looked at Peony, "Did you really see Feng Hai having a private meeting with a woman in the house back then?" ”

"Absolutely."

"Who's that woman?" The emperor asked.

"The room was too dark for the slave to see."

"Then you must be mistaken, Feng Hai didn't have any relationship with any woman." The emperor said.

"But the slave ......"

Ah Yao hurriedly interrupted the peony, "The father-in-law in the palace are all pure people, and sometimes they speak very much like women, you may just misheard." ”

Peony didn't understand what A-Yao meant, and looked at her with a confused expression.

She nodded to Peony and motioned for Peony to follow her words.

Peony could only nod, "Maybe the slave really heard it wrong, after all, after so many years, the slave doesn't remember it too clearly." ”

"Feng Hai is dead, this matter is over, don't mention it again in the future."

"Yes."

Ah Yao and Peony replied at the same time.

Ah Yao raised her eyes and looked at the emperor, "What should I do with the peony?" ”

"If you want to take her out of the palace, take her out!"

There are countless palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, and one more or less is not much difference to the emperor.

Peony kowtowed to the emperor excitedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

The emperor didn't speak.

"Then I'll take her out first."

"Hmm."

Ah Yao glanced at the emperor and left the imperial study with the peony.

When she walked out of the imperial study, Peony had already burst into tears, she looked at the sky, breathed in the free air, and turned her head to look at A-Yao gratefully.

"Thank you."

Ah Yao smiled at her, "If you tell me the truth about what happened back then, I naturally can't go back on what I promised you." ”

"Thank you so much, I just met Concubine Wan, I thought it was ......"

The word Concubine Wan made Ah Yao frown slightly.

Concubine Wan's reaction today is really a little too abnormal.

She turned her gaze to Peony and asked, "Do you remember the voice of the woman who had a private meeting with Feng Hai that night?" ”

She originally wanted to ask Peony if the woman she had a private meeting with Feng Hai was Concubine Wan.

But I felt that it was inappropriate to ask such a question, so I could only change it to a tactful way.

"Didn't you say that the person who had a private meeting with Feng Hai was a father-in-law?" Peony Road.

Ah Yao glanced back at the imperial study, pulled the peony and walked forward, and didn't stop until she was far away.

"Whatever the emperor wants us to say, we have to say something, understand?"

Peony shook her head, "This is the palace, if there is news of a private meeting between the eunuch and the woman, do you think the emperor will be happy?" ”

"You mean ......"

Peony epiphany.

"This matter can only rot in the stomach, if you say it to the public, the emperor will not let you go."

Peony nodded obediently, "I understand. ”

"Do you think of something?" A-Yao asked again.

Peony shook her head, "Didn't think of anything." ”

"Forget it, you don't have to think about it, let's get out of the palace with peace of mind!"

"Hmm."

Ah Yao sent Peony out of the palace and gave Peony some silver so that she could live better in the future.

Watching her walk away, Ah Yao returned to Su Mansion.

As soon as she returned to the Su Mansion, the porter hurriedly stepped forward with a letter.

"Girl, here's a letter from you."

Ah Yao took the letter, the envelope was blank, and she could only open the envelope.

[If you want to save your mother, come to Xiao's house. 】

She clutched the letter and looked at the porter, "Who sent it?" ”

"No one sent it, so it was left at the door, and I found it when I was cleaning the door."

She took a deep breath and turned to leave the Su Mansion.

Rong Qianhan happened to come to the front yard and saw Ah Yao leaving in a hurry.

By the time he chased out of the gate, A-Yao was gone.

He looked back at the porter, "Where did Ah Yao go?" ”

"The girl got a letter, read it, and left."

"What's on the letter?"

The porter shook his head, "I don't know. ”

Without continuing to ask, Rong Qianhan looked around for Ah Yao.

……

On the plaque in the middle of the entrance of Xiaofu, there is still a white flower, and a pair of white lanterns are hung at the door.

Ah Yao stood outside the door of Xiao Mansion, looking at this deserted mansion.

Xiao Lao and Concubine Xiao died one after another, and Li Hao's brothers and sisters already hated her, and the people who asked her to come to Xiao's Mansion must be these two people.

She walked to the gate and found it unclosed, leaving a gap.

She pushed the door open and entered the Xiao Mansion.

There are also white lanterns and white cloths hanging in Xiao's mansion, and there are traces left by the aftermath everywhere, and there is no trace of the subordinates in the mansion, nor do I see the two brothers and sisters of Li Hao.

She looked around as she walked forward.

Hearing footsteps ahead, she immediately stopped.

Li Man appeared in front of her in white, his eyes glaring at her fiercely, "You're finally here." ”

"Do you know my mother's whereabouts?"

"Yes." Riemann said with a smile.

"Where is my mother?"

Riemann walked slowly towards her, "Don't worry, I'll tell you." ”

Ah Yao looked at Li Man vigilantly, judging from their current antagonistic relationship, it was unlikely that she would truthfully tell Yun Niang's whereabouts.

She must have had some other purpose!

"You asked me to come, didn't you just want to tell me my mother's whereabouts?"

Riemann was not such a well-meaning person, so naturally he had other purposes.

The corners of Li Man's mouth hooked up a sneer, "You have harmed our family so badly, you are embarrassed to pay nothing, and you want to return to your mother?" ”

"Don't go around in circles, let's talk straight!"

"Follow me."

Riemann walked towards the antechamber.

A-Yao followed her.

The two of them stepped into the front hall one after the other, and the tablets of Xiao Lao and Xiao Fei were placed in the front hall.

Glancing at the two tablets, Ah Yao looked at Li Man, "What do you mean?" ”

"My grandfather died because of you, my mother also died because of you, and there was not even a beautiful aftermath, shouldn't you apologize to them?"

Ah Yao explained angrily: "I have already said that Xiao Lao died because of Xiao Mu, Concubine Xiao is to blame, their deaths have nothing to do with me, I will not apologize to them!" ”

"I want you to apologize!" Riemann roared.
