"Who is it?"

Concubine De's not too big eyes revealed a fierce light: "Who killed the concubine's grandmother?" ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows, his dark eyes met her gaze, and his tone was calm, and he couldn't empathize with her sadness: "It's the Zhu family." ”

In four simple words, there is no need for the emperor to explain the reason.

It was the Chengguo Mansion that first sent a killer to assassinate the queen's father, the head of the Zhu family, and the old lady beat the queen to serious injuries with a tiger cane.

Although it was the fire that took the queen's life, Jiang Xinyue, who was also trapped in the fire, was able to escape, why couldn't the queen?

In the final analysis, it was because of his physical injuries, so he did not have the physical strength to escape.

Isn't it natural for the Zhu family to seek revenge on them?

Emperor Xuanwu took it for granted, so he didn't think about comforting Concubine De at all, but was worried about what Jiang Xinyue just said: "I came here today to ask you, have you seen Chu Jieyu from Xin Zheku?" ”

Chu Jieyu?

Jiang Xinyue didn't react, Chu Jieyu?

When she first crossed over and lived in the Lotus Washing Palace, Chu Jieyu who was cut off by her?

Didn't you ask Xiao Ronghua?

Emperor Xuanwu rubbed the back of Jiang Xinyue's hand twice with his thumb, signaling her to be restless.

Concubine De was obviously panicked, she thought that the emperor was going to ask Xiao Ronghua at first, but suddenly a Chu Jieyu popped up, she really didn't think about how to answer.

"Chu ...... Chu Jieyu? ”

Concubine De was about to say that she didn't remember who Chu Jieyu was, and the emperor had blocked her back road: "Before the imperial concubine entered the palace, Chu Jieyu had been following Concubine Li, and she was disrespectful to you, the queen and Concubine Yu. However, two days ago, the steward of Xin Zheku reported to the Internal Affairs Office, saying that the sinner Chu had disappeared half a year ago. This ...... who sees no one alive and no corpse who dies"

Naturally, it is necessary to start with the suspicion of people who have had conflicts with her.

And Emperor Xuanwu deliberately said "before the imperial concubine entered the palace", just to pick Jiang Xinyue clean, after all, she and Chu Jieyu have also had several head-on conflicts.

He was reminding Concubine De not to try to pull Jiang Xinyue into the water.

Concubine De took a deep breath: "As a mother, the concubine does not allow her to hurt the concubine's children like this. As the emperor's concubine, she is just a Jieyu, and the concubine is one of the four concubines, how can she be so presumptuous? It is the right of the concubine to teach her a little lesson. ”

"Are you serious, haven't you seen Chu Jieyu?"

"The concubine didn't."

Emperor Xuanwu's dark and calm eyes were full of coldness, but they were hidden in the depths of tenderness, making it difficult to distinguish.

Concubine De was reluctant to dwell on this issue, and pleaded softly with her eyes: "Your Majesty, the concubine ...... The concubine begged the emperor...... The concubine wants to leave the palace and go home...... Go home and see your grandmother for the last time. ”

It means that I want to go out of the palace to attend the funeral of the old lady of Chengguo.

The emperor still held Jiang Xinyue's hand and stood calmly in front of Concubine De: "The old lady's funeral is about to be held, but I am about to leave for the Qinzhou Palace to escape the summer, whether to attend the old lady's funeral, or go to the palace with me, you should think about it yourself." ”

After speaking, his tone changed: "Today, the imperial concubine is enjoying the lotus in Yanqing Palace, I heard that not only are the lotus flowers blooming beautifully, but even the fish raised in the pond are very good, I also want to go and see, you don't have to come with me, I have Wang Dequan and Tang Shiliang in front of me to serve enough." ”

first mentioned Chu Jieyu, and then mentioned the fish in the lotus garden, every word and word of Emperor Xuanwu was so cold and ruthless, which made Concubine De's heart tremble.

The eunuch in charge of taking care of the lotus garden is a mute and illiterate, but Concubine De is kind-hearted and willing to take in such a wasted person.

For some reason, Jiang Xinyue looked at a few pale pink lotus flowers, and always felt that they seemed to be more gorgeous and blooming than when they came in the morning.

"Whoa!"

"Wang Dequan, bring a knife."

Although he didn't know what the emperor was going to do, what he wanted, the king had to give everything.

"Brush!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

Crimson blood dripped from Emperor Xuanwu's fingers and fell into the pond, and Jiang Xinyue and Wang Dequan exclaimed at the same time.

"Whoa!"

A big fish with a vicious face jumped up from the water with the smell of blood, Jiang Xinyue was startled, but because the emperor was on his side, he couldn't pull his legs and run.

She screamed while directly protecting the emperor with her body, revealing sharp and smelly teeth in the fish's mouth, and when she was about to bite her, the emperor hugged the back of her head, turned over, and the knifed guard responsible for protecting the emperor's safety kicked the ugly fish out of the air, and fell into the pond.

Jiang Xinyue, who was frightened, was beating straight with a "bang", which shook Emperor Xuanwu's throat.

He chuckled: "How dare you protect me when you're so scared?" ”

Jiang Xinyue glared at him: "Fear is fear, the body does not obey the command of the concubine, what can the concubine do?" The concubine didn't mean to save the emperor. ”

It means that her brain tells her to run, but her body gives instructions faster than her head, telling her to save the emperor regardless of her own life or death.

While the emperor smiled, he looked at the lotus pond with gloomy and indifferent eyes, and said meaninglessly: "My harem is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. ”

There are those who are good at making incense, and there are also those who are good at making poison, gathering people together, and they are also proficient in eighteen kinds of martial arts.

A good yellow-lipped fish, turned into a piranha, smelling blood, is already so excited, if you leave a corpse behind, wouldn't you go crazy?

"Mother's ......"

Lu Yin's eyes were worried, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.

Concubine De's breath was a little heavy, and her plan was disrupted by the emperor, which made her very angry.

What does it mean that she has a holiday with Chu Jieyu?

Didn't Concubine Yu have it? Didn't the imperial concubine?

The two of them even had more conflicts and contradictions with Chu Jieyu on the surface, so why did they question her alone?

Or has she been acting too radically lately and causing the emperor's dissatisfaction?

"Plop!"

A sack with stones tied to it was thrown into the pond, and the stones sank quickly with the contents of the sack, until they disappeared and there was no trace to be seen, and the two eunuchs left with their heads shrunk in their heads.

It was nightfall, and it was dark, and no one could see their faces.

Behind the door of the Lotus Palace, Mu Tan revealed a pair of surprised eyes, and then slowly, gently closed the palace door, and ran back with a smoke: "Niangniang...... Empress...... Someone threw something in the pond in front of us, so big that the slave and maid had just closed the door and found it halfway through. ”

Jiang Zhaoyi drank the tea slowly: "Mu Tan, things that have nothing to do with us, don't care so much, so as not to get into trouble." ”

Her grace in this life has come to an end, and this thing is definitely not used to frame her.

As long as she doesn't hurt her, she doesn't care about anyone's idle business.
