"Yes." The Queen Mother slowly closed her eyes and rubbed her eyebrows.
Outside Cining Palace, Li Dehai had ordered someone to bring the jade chariot. Dugu Chen and Fang Guiren got into the jade chariot. Fang Guiren wiped away the tears on his face and lowered his head, not daring to look at Dugu Chen.
Dugu Chen took a deep breath. This noble lady is the daughter of Zuo Xiang. She was the daughter of Zuo Xiang. Now Zuo Xiang has contributed a lot to her. Naturally, he can't treat her badly, let alone let her have anything happen to her in the harem.
"There is no one here now, you can tell me what exactly you heard" Dugu Chen looked at her and asked in a deep voice
Fang Guiren was slightly startled, then nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I dare not to say anything unreasonable, but your Majesty should know who is so intolerant of me and who hates me so much. As the saying goes, the debts of the father are repaid by the son. I will do this.
As my daughter, I have to pay some price for all the grudges and grudges I had made..."
Although he didn't say it directly, his words made it very clear.
Dugu Chen was slightly startled when he heard this. What she meant... was Lin Xueyao? How could he have forgotten Lin Xueyao? Yes, the hatred of killing the nine tribes was not only for the left prime minister, not only for the noble Fang, but also for himself and Qingyi.
On that day, the Queen Mother and Lao Jiu begged each other hard, and Xue Yao was her sister who had grown up together, so she couldn't bear to kill him in pain. However, he understood what a terrible emotion hatred is and how powerful it is.
"You don't have to be afraid. Now that things are getting serious, they won't dare to take action," Dugu Chen comforted.
Seeing Dugu Chen comforting herself, Fang Guiren felt warm in her heart and turned slightly red, "Thank you, Your Majesty. With Your Majesty here, I won't be afraid anymore."
"Even if I want to protect you, I can't be by your side all the time. You have to learn to protect yourself, as if it's for your father and for me," Dugu Chen said lightly.
"Yes, I obey," Fang Guiren nodded and responded.
…
Cining Palace, Concubine Wan hurriedly walked into the silent hall with the palace attendants
While she was sleeping, she heard Guo'er anxiously calling her to wake up, saying that someone was going to kill Fang Guiren, which caused a storm in the palace. The Queen Mother then asked someone to come over and ask her to go to Cining Palace.
Walking into the palace, she leaned over to say hello, "My concubine, please say hello to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with peace and happiness."
Her voice echoed in the silent palace until silence returned. On the couch above, the Queen Mother had her eyes closed. The candlelight shone on her graceful face that was already slightly weathered, making it impossible to see her emotions clearly.
"You should have heard about it," the Queen Mother asked calmly.
Concubine Wan hesitated for a moment and said: "Although I don't know what the Queen Mother is referring to, I did hear about Fang Guiren's sister Fang just now, and I don't know what happened."
"I don't know what happened?" The Queen Mother sneered, slowly opening her eyes and looking at her, "You did a good thing, but you don't know the result?"
Concubine Wan's face hardened and she knelt down on the ground, "I don't know what your Majesty means..."
"How dare you say that this matter has nothing to do with you?!" the Queen Mother said angrily.
Concubine Wan looked at the Queen Mother in surprise and said: "This matter is indeed related to my concubine, but..."
As she said that, she looked around, hesitated for a moment, and said boldly: "But it was clearly your command to do this..."
"How dare you!!" the Queen Mother angrily scolded, looking warily outside the palace, "How dare you slander the Ai family!"
Concubine Wan kowtowed in fear, "My queen, please calm down. I don't dare to slander my concubine. Today, Miss Xueyao came to Chuxiu Palace and said that my empress asked me to get rid of Fang Guiren. I dare not disobey you, but... I still don't dare to disobey you."
