The next day, the Queen Mother heard that Concubine Zi had returned to the palace. Before Mu Ziyan went to greet her, she had already gone to the Amethyst Palace. At this moment, the atmosphere was a bit stalemate. Mu Ziyan knelt on the ground to greet the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother held her in her hands.
He sipped the tea slowly with his cup in his hand, and glanced at Mu Ziyan with the corner of his eye.
Maybe she felt that the atmosphere was enough and she was confident enough, so she gently wiped the water stains from the corners of her mouth and said in a weird voice: "Flat body, I have been kneeling for a long time. If the emperor sees it, he won't be distressed!"
Mu Ziyan's face was flushed. Don't misunderstand that it was caused by excitement or shyness. In fact, it was because of embarrassment. She could only say thank you and then stood up, but she did not dare to raise her head to look at the Queen Mother. She could probably guess what the Queen Mother would ask her next.
"It's not that she's not brave enough, but that her heart is not strong enough. She is used to being kind and honest, and has excellent cultivation. How can she lie to an old man who is over fifty years old?"
God, please forgive Zi Yan for her helplessness!
"I heard that Princess Zi was taken away by unidentified men in black on the night of the emperor's assassination. How did you return to the palace without any risk? Can you tell the Ai family how you escaped?"
As Mu Ziyan expected, the Queen Mother directly pointed the finger at this thorny issue. Fortunately, she already had something to say in her mind. However, she also knew that in front of the Queen Mother, it was not so easy to get away with just a few bluffs.
Not to mention that the Queen Mother was already suspicious of her. In order to have enough scenes, her expressions must also be rich.
In modern times, we have seen too many court dramas. The lucky heroine will always have a savior at the most critical moment. Unfortunately, this is not acting now. She has to take care of everything step by step.
Being taken away by a strange man in black must be full of fear, and you will also have lingering fears during the process of escaping. It is difficult for a first-class actor to fake such a profound psychological journey, and even a mere Mu Ziyan cannot fake it.
.
But, what should we do?
Recalling the entire escape journey, Mu Ziyan had mixed feelings, but the most heart-stopping scene was the scene where the carriage was shot through by thousands of arrows, and the moment when he was closest to death during the siege outside the inn. Mu Ziyan's face was finally stained with a trace of lingering fear.
"I only remember that when I woke up, I was no longer in the palace, but in a strange room. Later, some people appeared and threatened to kill me, but at the right time, I was taken away by a boy about thirteen years old.
"Although I don't know who the young man is, I haven't been able to escape the vicious hands of those men in black since he asked me to leave."
Mu Ziyan fell into memories, thinking that of course she was not in the palace when she woke up the next day. This is true. She was saved by Mr. Zhengtai, otherwise she would have died in that carriage. This is also true.
"The carriage we were riding in was pierced by random arrows from the men in black and fell off the cliff. Fortunately, I was pulled out of the carriage by the young man earlier, otherwise..." Mu Ziyan said this, squeezed out two tears, and won
The Empress Dowager's sympathy.
The Queen Mother frowned, and when she was about to ask who the young man was and why he saved her, Mu Ziyan rushed to continue: "For two days together, I kept asking about the young man's identity, but he never said anything.
, I just said that we were entrusted by someone. Later, we were quickly found by the man in black at the inn. The young man separated from me in order to save me. At that time... I had already fallen into the hands of the man in black.
, just when the man in black wanted to understand the concubine with a sword, Qingzhu and others arrived in time to save the concubine..."
Mu Ziyan said, and she burst into tears at the end. There were two lines of clear tears on her flawless white cheeks. The beauty's frail posture made even a woman's heart flutter when she saw it. The Queen Mother immediately waved her hands to comfort her: "Okay, okay,
Stop talking, just come back safe and sound."
Besides, I heard that Concubine Zi hurriedly went to see the emperor that night, but the emperor woke up suddenly after being in a coma for many days because of Concubine Zi's return. This was a happy event, and naturally it was not Concubine Zi who was doing harm to the emperor.
The assassin was trying to seduce him, not to mention that the emperor was awake and might know who the assassin was. She had nothing to do with this matter and continued to recite her scriptures and cultivate her Buddhahood!
"The Ai family is going to take a lunch break. Since everyone has returned to the palace, we should take good care of the emperor!" The Queen Mother stood up with the help of her nanny.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother!"
An interrogation-like 'greeting' ended without any danger. Mu Ziyan exhaled a long breath and finally got over it!
However, there is indeed a man in black who wants her life, and he also uses the shining name of Ye Yangchenhao. This is no joke. But he still doesn’t know the enemy under his tree. This enemy
Not in the dark, but in the deepest part of the dark!
"Your Majesty, are you worried about those men in black?" Yuqing is worthy of being Ambassador Zuo, and even more worthy of being the palace maid who has been chasing Mu Ziyan for months. She can tell what Mu Ziyan is thinking just by moving the corner of Mu Ziyan's eyes.
?
That seems to be true!
"Yes, no matter what, there is someone who really wants to kill me, and this person also knows something about me, but I don't remember offending anyone." To talk about offending, she and Li Miaoxue didn't know each other before.
And, could it be her?
No! It's understandable that Li Miaoxue wants to kill her, but it's too impossible to kill Shen Mengxi. Since it's not Li Miaoxue and it's not Ye Yangchenhao, then...
correct!
I have offended one person - my precious concubine!
