Chapter 343: Broken Reputation
The afternoon sun is lazy.
Liang Wan sat by the window, her whole body was warmly illuminated.
On the table in front of him, there was a half-way chess game.
She lazily turned the wax plum blossom on her fingertips, and every breath was full of faint fragrance.
Huang Tong was dressed plainly, simply combed his hair in a bun, did not apply any fat powder, and leaned down to bow respectfully.
"Thank you, mother."
Liang Wan put down the plum blossom and looked at her seriously, not without pity: "Have you really thought about it?" ”
Huang Tong raised his head, his eyes were firm: "The concubine has made up her mind." ”
Liang Wan nodded, turned her head and gestured to Xianglan.
Xianglan held the small wooden box that had been prepared a long time ago and sent it to Huang Tong.
Huang Tong straightened up and didn't take it, his watery eyes were full of doubts: "What does Niangniang mean by this?" ”
When Xianglan opened the lid, it was full of pearls, all round and shiny.
Liang Wan got up and walked in front of Huang Tong and personally helped the person up.
"When you leave the palace, you will always need it."
Huang Tong shook his head and refused, the smile on the corner of his mouth was indescribably bitter: "Since the concubine is a monk, how can she take these to a pure place again?" What's more, if the concubine still has these in her heart, why should she escape into the empty door? The mother is good, and the concubine understands it. ”
The attitude is very resolute.
"Besides, the concubine did this to help Ah Yue take revenge."
Having said that, Liang Wan is no longer reluctant.
Huang Tong took a step back and bowed again: "Take care, Niangniang." ”
Liang Wan nodded slightly.
Huang Tong hung his head and took a few steps back, turned around and left without hesitation.
Liang Wan looked at her departing footsteps, and she was simply resolute.
How bad is it to get out of such a quagmire?
What would you feel if you waited until the day you were supposed to leave?
It must be a wish fulfillment, relaxed and happy, right?
On the night of the Laba banquet, after Mrs. He'an returned home, she had inexplicable abdominal pain, and she actually saw red, which caused a heart palpitation attack, and then died suddenly.
The crowd was shocked.
It was later found that it was because Mrs. He'an had eaten saffron by mistake.
Saffron is unborn.
The Lou family, the Lu family, and the king of Guangping were greatly annoyed, and they were bound to strictly inspect the banquet meals that day.
The Queen Mother was even more grief-stricken and ordered a thorough investigation.
The queen needs to avoid suspicion when she holds the banquet, and the concubine is pregnant and physically inconvenient, so the matter falls on the head of Zhaoyi Lu.
This person is also in line with the popular desire.
But after three days, everything at the banquet was normal.
When she was distressed, Yuliangyuan Huang reported that saffron was found in the flower tea prepared by the queen for the ladies, and in the midst of the suspicion, Concubine Shu came out to testify and confirmed that the chrysanthemum tea in Zhaoyang Hall was indeed mixed with saffron.
On the same day, Concubine Shu only thought that it was an unintentional move by the palace people, so as not to provoke the wind and waves, she swallowed her anger and did not dare to make a noise, so she quietly put the tea aside and did not drink it.
Who knew that it was not only Concubine Shu who was pregnant that day, but also Mrs. He'an, who drank so confusedly, which led to a miscarriage.
The queen failed to murder Concubine Shu, but she killed Mrs. He'an.
Unexpectedly, this incident is only the tip of the iceberg.
A palace maid from Langhuayuan came out to testify that the queen first framed Concubine Shu for poisoning, and then blamed Zhao Hongde, and also bought the jailer and forged the blood book, so that Hongde and the Zhao family were unjustly killed.
At this time, there was a palace maid in the same hall as Zhang Xuanhui, who exposed the fact that the queen and Zhang Baoyue had done witchcraft together, and after the matter was revealed, Zhang Baoyue was forced to die in order to get rid of his guilt.
The wall fell and everyone pushed ......
The emperor remembered that the queen was the biological mother of the crown prince, and the Cao family was a loyal martyr, so he only abolished the queen's position, left her alive, and moved into the cold palace.
There was no Huang Tong in the hall for a long time, and Liang Wan was still standing in place looking at the empty doorway.
"Why didn't Concubine Shu tell her the truth, this really doesn't look like your style."
There was a hint of playfulness in the laughter.
Liang Wan turned around and looked over, the luxurious and bright palace was full of rare and exotic toys, whether it was the sun in the day or the candle flame at night, they could be illuminated with golden light and dazzling, like living creatures.
The person who came out of the inner hall stood with a long body in a black robe, his thick black hair tied with a golden crown, his gloomy and pale face, his eyes were cold and dark, bottomless, and the whole person was lifeless.
Liang Wan glanced at the door again, walked back to her seat and sat down, looking up at him slightly.
"Since she thinks that Zhang Baoyue was wronged and killed, then the concubine might as well fulfill her, and besides, the witch Gu matter, although the queen is not the mastermind, she is also an accomplice, and the concubine is not wrong to blame the good people."
Gao Qian smiled and sat down opposite her: "You seem to be reluctant to be a good lady?" ”
Liang Wan glanced at him: "A game against each other, during which it must be constantly falling and rising, just get used to it." ”
Gao Qian's half-truth: "If you are reluctant, let her stay with you." ”
Liang Wan picked up a white child and raised her eyebrows to look at him: "What?" Can Your Majesty's same seed be used twice? ”
Gao Qian raised his hand and dropped a child, and laughed sullenly: "For the sake of Concubine Shu, Lone is willing to give it a try." ”
Liang Wan glanced at him coldly, she would continue to put a pair of his eyes in front of her because of a problem.
Although I don't know when Huang Tong began to be loyal to Gao Qian, it is not surprising at all, perhaps from the beginning, Gao Qian instructed her to take the initiative to approach her......
Liang Wan sighed and dropped the white son in her hand: "The concubine is curious, Your Majesty is willing to let her leave alive." ”
Huang Tong also knows a lot of inside information.
Gao Qianzi's hand paused, and slightly hooked his lips: "Isn't this what Concubine Shu wants to see?" ”
Liang Wan's chest suddenly suffocated, and she couldn't breathe, twisting her brows and lowering her eyes.
Gao Qian lowered his head and frowned at her: "Uncomfortable again?" ”
Liang Wan clutched her chest and nodded: "It's strange to say, sometimes I feel relaxed inexplicably, and sometimes I feel depressed and uncomfortable." ”
Gao Qian straightened up, staring at her with dark eyes: "Do you still want to go to the outside of the palace for a consultation?" ”
Liang Wan frowned, there is no shortage of talented people outside the palace, but it is not easy to see, after several years of accumulation, her medical skills are not bad, she can't see the clues, and ordinary doctors may not be able to see it.
Leaving the palace without a purpose is also a trip in vain, it is better to let Song Tan usually help pay attention to it, there is really any news of a famous doctor, and it is not too late for her to go again.
"Queen-" Liang Wan slowed down and changed her words, "Cao Ruomi's matter has not been completely concluded yet, if you really want to leave the palace, it will be a few more days." ”
Gao Qian poured some hot water into her cup, and said lightly: "Her guilt before and after combined, could have been punished with capital punishment-"
He sighed softly, his eyes in thought.
Keeping Cao Ruomi's life for the time being is just a move to stabilize his maternal uncle's family and the Zhou family.
Selfishly, Gao Qian doesn't want to leave trouble.
Liang Wan glanced at him, then looked away and fell back on the chessboard, he was still so ruthless, and he didn't change at all.
However, she was happy to help him once, as long as she found an opportunity to confirm that the second prince was not born from Gao Qian, Cao Ruomi would definitely die, and if she did a good job, she might be able to serve her mother and uncle together.
Liang Wan softened her voice: "Your Majesty has to take into account the face of the crown prince, in the end, he is the prince of a country." ”
Gao Qian didn't answer, and looked at her: "Why did you want to attack Mrs. He'an in front of the Queen Mother?" Aren't you afraid that if the matter is revealed, Lou and Gao Hun will make it difficult for me? ”
Liang Wan grinned: "I was the only one who was pregnant that day, no matter what the others ate or drank, it didn't matter, and no one knew that Mrs. He'an was pregnant." ”
She paused, and then said, "Besides, does Your Majesty really think that it is saffron that kills people?" ”
