"Hmph, don't think that just because you hold the gold medal given by the late emperor, you can ignore anyone. To put it bluntly, the late emperor has passed away after all. Now, both the palace and these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are mine. It's the master, do you understand? So don't have any wishful thinking that it will work this time." Nangong Ling suddenly thought of something, and her anger was suppressed instantly, and her eyes flickered with a strange and cold look.
Concubine Yun was a little stunned by Nangong Ling's sudden change of attitude, but she quickly recovered as before. She concealed the sharpness in her eyes, smiled lightly, and faced Nangong Ling without fear and said: "How powerful is the gold medal, Your Majesty?" You know it better than I do, don’t you?”
Nangong Ling's body froze, and her slender fingers were clenched together tightly. Damn you bitch, if I don't get rid of you, it will be difficult to relieve the hatred in my heart. But then again, why not use Concubine Yun as bait? , to lead Nangong Yu back? Concubine Yun raised him since he was a child, and it goes without saying that he was kind and nurturing. If Nangong Yu cares about Concubine Yun, he will definitely come back to save Concubine Yun. By then, a dragnet will be used to kill her on the spot. Hum, Nangong Yu, I want to see how hard your life is.
In this case, you can kill two birds with one stone. You can not only get rid of the bitch Yun Fei, but also kill Nangong Yu. Why not?
Thinking about it, Nangong Ling's lips curled up into a sneer, and she slowly loosened her clenched fingertips. She slowly stood up and walked towards Concubine Yun. She stopped three steps away from Concubine Yun and said coldly: "The Queen Mother and you. After fighting for so many years, there has never been a moment of victory, and I have turned a blind eye to you, but this time, I will never give you a chance to stand up again. You are just the late emperor's concubine. , I have survived for so many years with a gold medal and scheming, this ability still makes me admire a little, but everything ends here." [
Concubine Yun was startled when she heard this. She looked at Nangong Ling's eyes full of intrigue and ferocious expression. She couldn't help but tremble in her heart. She knew very well how much Nangong Ling hated Nangong Yu. This time, she might not win the gold medal. It has no effect anymore. In the palace, she is the only one who has a very close relationship with Nangong Yu. There is no reason why Nangong Ling would let her go.
"If you want me to die, I have to die, but if you want to accuse me, why bother, I can say what I say." After Concubine Yun finished speaking, she stood sideways, no longer looking at Nangong Ling, thinking to herself, even if the gold medal rises, It didn't work, and she had the entire Shui family behind her, so she didn't believe that Nangong Ling would actually kill her regardless of the Shui family.
Nangong Ling seemed to have seen through Concubine Yun's thoughts. Seeing that she seemed to admit her guilt, but was neither arrogant nor humble. She was obviously full of confidence and not afraid at all. She couldn't help but sneer and said: "Don't think that I dare not touch the Shui family. Although I am alive, In the royal family, but also half of the Chu family, the dispute between the Chu family and the Shui family has never stopped. You know this much better than I do, but now, even if I don't do anything, the Shui family will still be able to survive in Jinxi. It’s gone, haha.”
When Concubine Yun heard the last sentence, she immediately looked at Nangong Ling coldly, frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Nangong Ling raised her eyebrows slightly and scoffed with disdain: "What? Concubine Yun, who has always been well-informed, doesn't know what happened to the Shui family recently? Ha".
After hearing this, Concubine Yun's eyes darkened. She was clearly hit by Nangong Ling's words. The Shui family was already a powerful family of Jin Xi Dingli. Her younger brother married the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty as his first wife, and her second child was the daughter of the Minister of Etiquette. She is a woman with a rich family and a solid background. Her younger brother is busy with business. She has never worried that the Shui family will decline one day. Except for the lack of male children, there is nothing else. Unexpectedly, Nangong Ling's words today will make her heart He grabbed it.
Suddenly, she met Nangong Ling's eyes and asked coldly: "What do you mean by this?"
"Oh? You really don't know? Shui Yunheng divorced the prime minister's second daughter and raised his second wife to be his wife." Nangong Ling looked at Concubine Yun in a funny way. Seeing her surprised expression, her smile deepened.
"What did you say?" Concubine Yun swayed slightly, obviously shocked by the news. The prime minister's legitimate second daughter was divorced? How could the prime minister not be angry? Didn't the Shui family lose a backer?
Strike while the iron is hot, Nangong Ling raised a sinister smile, and said: "Since you want to know, I won't hide it from you. I will let you know clearly. I heard that Liu Ruyan, who was abandoned, is dead. The day before Shui Muyao returned to Nanyang County with Prince Xiang, the Prime Minister's Mansion carried the body back and resolutely refused to let Liu Ruyan enter the Shui family ancestral hall. However, Shui Yunheng didn't care at all and was intoxicated with Xinna's young lady from several rooms all day long. In the meantime, I was enjoying the romance, and I couldn’t think of Shu. I didn’t even go to the silk shop, and the shop was left to my servants to take care of.”
Concubine Yun was stunned, her body became unsteady, and she took a few steps back. After she stood firm, she felt as if her heart was blocked by something. She wanted to say something but couldn't. Her face gradually turned pale. At this moment, she , in front of Nangong Ling, she instantly lost her previous confidence and arrogance, "Are all these things you said true?" She looked at Nangong Ling again and said in a lower voice.
Nangong Ling curled up the corners of his lips and sneered: "Your life is already in my hands, do I need to do anything more? Haha", he did not allow Concubine Yun to speak, and then added: "Now, the Shui family's The business is getting worse day by day. The branches in the border towns have long been closed. The Chu family has secretly purchased the shops in other towns. They are obviously owned by the Shui family, but in fact they have long been under the Chu family's name. The rest is in the capital. It’s a pity that Shui Yunheng ignored the affairs of the shop all day long, and the Chu family tampered with it a little bit, and the business was even more miserable, losing money and making money all day long, hahaha.”
As soon as Nangong Ling finished speaking, Concubine Yun sneered and said: "I am careless, I didn't expect you to slowly start from the outside of the Shui family. When the Shui family has no power and I have no shield, we will deal with you again." I and King Yu, oh, this move is really wonderful."
"You are wrong. I was not involved in it, but it just happened at the right time, didn't it?" As he spoke, Nangong Ling looked at the door of the hall and shouted: "Come here."
Immediately after four guards came in, Nangong Ling pointed at Concubine Yun, and suddenly became powerful, "Concubine Yun looks at people regardless of their superiority or inferiority, and is extremely disrespectful to the Queen Mother. Later, she let the imperial concubine go without permission, which is a treacherous minister." The crime of being an accomplice of the thief will be increased to one level. Relying on the gold medal given by the late emperor, he ran rampant and committed crimes in the palace. His crime will be increased to two levels. Concubine Yun will be forced into the inner palace prison and will be interrogated by the Queen Mother herself." Because of De Yun The concubine belongs to the female family members of the inner palace, so she can only be judged by the Queen Mother.
"Yes", the four guards took the order and walked to Concubine Yun. One of the guards pointed to the palace door and said to Concubine Yun: "Concubine, please leave by yourself."
At this time, Concubine Yun had regained her composure. She looked at Nangong Ling gloomily and saw a proud smile on his face. No matter how angry she was, there was nothing she could do, but she would never accept her fate and turned around to guard on both sides. Following her, she slowly walked out of the hall. Standing at the entrance of the hall was her personal palace maid Song'er. When she saw Concubine Yun coming out, she was about to step forward, but was stopped by the guards.
Concubine Yun looked at Song'er, blinked at her, and then sternly scolded: "You bitch, how dare you have the nerve to come to see me? Is it possible that you want to wait for me to skin you?" ?Get out of my way quickly, go back to your Chengxiu palace, you are a scumbag, you are a vile thing, I will be disgusted when I see you."
Song'er saw Concubine Yun blinking at her, but didn't understand what it meant. After hearing Concubine Yun's scolding, she couldn't help but understand. Although she had only followed Concubine Yun for a few years, she was extremely loyal to Concubine Yun. , and was very smart, and immediately sneered and said: "The lesson you taught me is that I will return to Chengxiu Palace now. However, what happened to your Majesty this time? She was escorted by the guards? Oh, it seems that your Majesty is not in a good mood. That's great, I won't bother you anymore, I'll leave." [
Song'er chuckled a few more times, turned around and left Yunzhao Palace. At this moment, Nangong Ling heard the sound and walked out of the palace. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Concubine Yun and said: "You are not very powerful in this palace. What? What? This girl has been following you for several years, and yet you scolded her like this?"
Concubine Yun snorted coldly, looked at her retreating figure, and said disdainfully: "She dreams of flying up a branch and turning into a phoenix. She dares to seduce King Yu. How can I tolerate her?" As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she had lost her composure and returned to indifference. With an expression on his face, he ignored Nangong Ling and continued to walk out.
Nangong Ling looked at Concubine Yun's back for a long time before the doubts in her eyes gradually faded away.
At dusk, the spectacle of burning clouds appeared on the horizon. Shui Lianyue stood in the yard, staring at the red clouds in the distance. The desire for freedom in her phoenix eyes increased again. If she was watching on the mountain or the edge of the cliff, It must be even more spectacular than now. The scenery of sunrise and sunset is actually very beautiful.
At this moment, the door of Jing Xuexuan was opened, and Nangong Ling flashed in front of her like the wind. His handsome face was extremely gloomy, but his sharp and sharp eyes flashed unexpectedly. Joy said, "Huh, I forgive you for not daring to run away." As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Ling took Shui Lianyue's wrist and walked towards the house.
"Let me go, Nangong Ling, what are you going to do? If you don't let go, I won't be polite." Shui Lianyue tried her best to break free from Nangong Ling's hand, but she didn't expect him to be very forceful. However, just when she was about to use her inner strength At this time, Nangong Ling let go of her wrist at the right time and asked, "Have you always stayed in Jingxuexuan?"
Shui Lianyue was slightly startled, then looked at Nangong Ling coldly and said: "What do you mean by this? I have been locked up here by you, and you still doubt me"?
"I'm just asking you, how can I say it's suspicion?" Nangong Ling saw that her expression was not abnormal, and her tone softened a lot. She thought to herself that maybe she really was overthinking it, but the two guards guarding Jing Xuexuan The disappearance of the secret guard always made him feel vaguely uneasy.
"I miss you, so I came to see you. However, your attitude makes me a little disappointed. When will you change this attitude? The queen of the mother world has always been tolerant and kind, how can she be like you? Seeing me like this is like seeing an enemy." Nangong Ling quickly looked around the room, and then his eyes fell on Shui Lianyue's cold face. She felt a little annoyed, but did not show it, and said in a gentle tone.
"I've always been like this and I can't change it. If you don't mind, just find someone else to be your queen." Shui Lianyue snorted coldly and said angrily. She was afraid that Nangong Ling would threaten her with her mother again, so she didn't Too tough. He will leave tomorrow night. Nangong Ling must not let Nangong Ling discover anything unusual at this time. It would be better if he could relax his vigilance.
When Nangong Ling heard her words, there was a hint of pretentiousness. He did not refuse as bluntly as before, as if he accepted it? He curled up the corners of his mouth, showed a faint smile, and raised his hand to hold her hand. , but found that she did not move away, he was still holding it in her hand, stroking it gently. The white catkins were slightly cold, and the slender fingertips were white and translucent, which made Nangong Ling's heart flutter.
