Chapter Seventy-Three: Artificial

The sky is deep and faintly black, Shen Qingjiao took Honeysuckle, carrying a long-handled sheepskin palace lamp and walking on the palace road, the oblique shadows of the two fell on the mottled palace walls on both sides, Shen Qingjiao had a gust of wind on the soles of her feet and sent a few petals floating from nowhere to her skirt, Honeysuckle looked back and said: "Little master, the Queen Mother let you go overnight, and the slave maid has a not very good feeling in her heart." What if the Queen Mother doubts you? ”

"There are not so many coincidental things in the world, and there are, and most of them are man-made." Shen Qingjiao raised her head lightly, and the light and shadow of the candle flame in front of her fell on her pair of silhouette autumn pupils, which was suddenly unfathomable: "It is inevitable that the Queen Mother will doubt me, she will doubt me, and she will also suspect Lu Zhaoyi, but the matter has been done, you have to continue to go down, give up halfway or panic yourself, it is really not good." Let's go, if you don't go faster, the Queen Mother should be in a hurry. ”

The sound of hurried footsteps was particularly abrupt in the quiet night, and without a cup of tea, the Qingping lamp outside the door of Ci'an Hall could already be seen, and the frost was guarding outside the door, and when he saw Shen Qingjiao's master and servant hurriedly coming, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "The little master is here?" The Queen Mother is waiting for the little master in the inner hall, so let's go in quickly. ”

Shen Qingjiao smiled at Sanshuang, even if she was Xie Yi, Xie Sanshuang could still uphold her former affection, how could Sanshuang not understand, she said, before Shen Qingjiao entered the inner hall, she sent a low sentence: "The Queen Mother doesn't look very good, the little master is careful." ”

The dull breath of the inner hall was really as Sanshuang said, but the queen mother was not the only one inside, and Luoyue smiled and asked Shen Qingjiao to say goodbye: "The noble little master is here, the noble man is safe." ”

In the middle of the summer night, the Ci'an Hall has long been on ice like the Qinzheng Palace, and the slightest coolness climbs on Shen Qingjiao's back and winds up, she takes care of herself and asks the Queen Mother to be safe, kneeling straight on the ground, the coolness of the celadon plate bricks also penetrates into the body along the bone cracks, and the black jade tassels on Shen Qingyao's sideburns sway out of fine floating light, and the sound of cicadas outside sets off the quiet and abnormal in the hall. πŸ…Ό.πŸ†…π•†πŸ…³π“£π•Ž.π˜Ύπ•†πŸ…Ό

After a while, the Queen Mother called out slowly: "The moon is falling, don't you bring a soft stool to the nobles?" It's cold at night, don't kneel on the ground for a long time, but you're sick. ”

"Concubine, thank you Queen Mother." Shen Qingjiao seemed to shrink a little.

The Queen Mother glanced at her cautious expression, and suddenly said, "Do you know what the mourning family asked you to do so late?" ”

"The concubine knows." Shen Qing's head was lowered a little more, and Qi Qi said: "The concubine did not complete the matter handed over by the Queen Mother to the concubine, it is the fault of the concubine, and I ask the Queen Mother to forgive her sins." ”

Shen Qingjiao raised her head in panic, her body fell to the ground as soon as she slid softly, and the panic in her eyes was slowly covered by calmness: "According to the instructions of the Queen Mother, the concubine has already put the medicine in the Luosang wine, and she also watched the palace maid place the white jade thermos on the banquet table of the concubine, as long as the concubine drinks the wine, she will definitely slip the tire, but the concubine did not expect that it would be ruined by Lu Zhaoyi today, Lu Zhaoyi's matter is indeed unexpected by the concubine, and the queen mother is also asked to forgive the sin!" ”

The Moyu tassel kowtowed heavily with Shen Qingjiao and hit her face, causing pain, but Shen Qingjiao didn't care about the pain, and sincerely admitted her mistake: "The concubine is not doing well, and I ask the Queen Mother for forgiveness." ”

The Queen Mother looked at Shen Qingjiao's extremely low posture in front of her, thinking of the fact that the moon had just fallen, she glanced at the falling moon and asked him to help Shen Qingjiao up, and then turned the double phoenix peony gold bracelet on her wrist, and said awe-inspiringly: "I don't think you dare to deceive the mourning family, whether there is medicine in the wine jug, the mourning family is clear." Since you have done it, it proves that the mourning family has told you, at least you don't dare to disobey it, but this matter has not been done in the end, and Concubine Xian's fetus is in her belly. Do you know why you can't do it? ”

"The concubine doesn't know, but the concubine begs the queen mother for teaching." Shen Qingjiao's face was solemn.

The Queen Mother looked at her for a long time, and after a while, she glanced at the falling moon beside her, and the falling moon immediately took a thin piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to Shen Qingjiao, Shen Qingjiao stepped forward to take it hesitantly, glanced at the Queen Mother, and then slowly unfolded it in her hand.

On the paper, there were several names written on it, the first one was the word Qiaoyan, and the corresponding was the three words Lu Zhaoyi, Shen Qingjiao's eyes suddenly set off a monstrous wave, her face turned white, as if the paper in her hand was heavy, and she fell straight forward, Shen Qingjiao quickly glanced at the remaining names, and while sneering in her heart, her fingertips were white, and her face was like earth.

She couldn't control her voice and said: "The concubine doesn't know that the palace people in her palace are the eyes and ears of others, and the queen mother needs to mention the concubine, so that the concubine can not be blinded in the dark." ”

Shen Qingjiao pointed to the word Qiaoyan and said: "This Qiaoyan is a second-class palace maid sent by the Shangyi Bureau, the concubine saw that she was active, so she let her serve in the inner hall, but she didn't want her to be Lu Zhaoyi's person, but the concubine could guarantee that the concubine had not mentioned this matter in front of her, and I really don't know how she passed the news to Lu Zhaoyi." This other person, the concubine saw that she was serving in general, so she didn't allow the matter of entering the inner hall, and she never thought that she was actually a virtuous concubine! ”

The more Shen Qingjiao spoke, the more frightened she felt, and she said in a deep voice: "If you are a concubine."
