"Concubine Qian is thinking too much again. If I thought this way, I wouldn't remind you." With a carefree smile, Ling Ruo turned around and sat down, "Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't leave Concubine Qian to talk more."
Already."
"Concubine, please leave." Ms. Liu casually bowed her knees and turned to leave. When she crossed the threshold, she almost tripped.
Shui Xiu handed the tea she had held in her hand for a long time to Ling Ruo and said, "Master, this time you and Concubine Qian have officially broken up."
Ling Ruo opened the lid of the cup, looked at the rising tea mist and said, "Isn't that great? It saves me the trouble of having to deal with everything."
"I'm afraid that Concubine Qian will jump over the wall and stab the Emperor desperately. That Liu Changming..." Before Shui Xiu finished speaking, Ling Ruo shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I don't have any evidence in her hands.
If she complains to the emperor, not only will she be unable to do anything to this palace, but she will also make the emperor think that she intends to frame her. Moreover, once Liu Changming's matter is revealed, do you think the emperor will still have a good attitude toward Liu?"
Shui Xiu agreed and said: "My master is right. This kind of person who robs civilian girls is known to the emperor. He must be cut into pieces."
"So what we have to worry about now is not the Liu family, but the Shu Mulu family. According to the letter sent by Li Wei, the 120,000 taels of silver that Shu Mulu Gongming embezzled has never been found. If the silver is not found, his
It is difficult to convict him of the crime. When the time comes, if the Shumulu family asks the queen to clear his joints in Xingchong, he may be able to escape with his life." At this point, Ling Ruo knocked on the armrest and murmured: "What will he do?
Where do you hide the money?"
Li Wei has searched all possible places, but he can't find this large sum of money. He has also asked the bankers in Jiangzhou, but there is no clue at all.
While he was deep in thought, Yang Hai hurriedly walked in and said: "Master, I just learned that Hui Gui has gone to the Queen's Empress."
"As expected, she went to ask for the queen." Ling Ruo was not surprised by the news. Since the Liu family couldn't get through, the only way to go was the queen. Even if the Shumulus family knew that the queen had bad intentions, they could only bite the bullet.
Go and ask.
Shui Xiu asked in a low voice: "Do you think the Queen will help Hui Gui?"
Ling Ruo licked her broken hair to her ears and said calmly: "The Queen took such a big risk to reset the Shumulu clan to deal with me. Now that I have not fallen, how can she be willing to abandon this pawn, but she may not be sure in her heart.
No other ideas."
Yang Hai thought for a moment and said, "Then should we tell Mr. Rong to be careful about the people on the Queen's side?"
Ling Ruo sneered and said: "Why be careful? How many people from the Nala clan are serving in the court, and they have already quietly infiltrated the six ministries. If these forces are made public, they will never be among the Nian family in the past."
middle."
Her words made Shui Xiu slightly anxious, "Then let the queen do something secretly to save Hui Guiren's Amma?"
Ling Ruo was not as worried as she was, and said calmly: "As long as we can find the 120,000 taels of silver hidden by Shu Mulu Gongming, even if the queen has extraordinary abilities, we will never be able to save her!"
Yang Hai said in embarrassment: "But I've been looking for it for so long, and I still don't have a clue about the money!"
"We have to keep searching even if we don't have any clues. It took us so much effort to find out the evidence of Shu Mulu Gongming's crime. We can uproot this family. We must not waste all our efforts." Ling Ruo's voice was still light, but it was softer than before.
With an added layer of coldness, he said, "Also, ask Liu Hu to try to keep an eye on the Queen's family. If there is any news, report it immediately."
As for the Liu family, they returned to Yongshou Palace full of resentment. Although Haitang did not go, she knew from the look on Liu's face that she must have been offended by Concubine Xi. She carefully brought the lotus seed soup to Liu family.
, "Master, this lotus seed soup is freshly stewed. It is sweet and soft. Please try it."
Mrs. Liu took the lotus seed soup and just took a spoonful. Remembering what Ling Ruo said before, there was no smell at all. She placed the colorful porcelain bowl heavily on the table and said angrily: "You can let me eat it now."
Phoenix meat
, I have no appetite. Concubine Xi, she had already guessed that I had formed an alliance with the Shumulu clan, but she still pretended to be confused, and did not say anything until she sent my brother to prison. This thought was really tight.
"
"Master, the matter has come to this. It's useless for you to be angry anymore. It's better to think about how to save the young master." Aunt Jin came from the Liu family and still kept the original title for Liu Changming.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu became even more angry and shouted: "He has caused such a big disaster, and how can he ask me to save him? It's not like you didn't hear what Concubine Xi said, she will never give up this opportunity."
, As for the Emperor... If the Emperor knows about my brother, it will only make him die faster! Humph, I have told him how many times to restrain himself, but he just refuses to listen and only gets worse. Now, he will die at any time.
.”
Jin Gu sighed and said: "This slave also knows, but the master and his wife only have one son, the young master. If he dies, the whole mansion will collapse."
Madam Liu said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I'm already annoyed enough, so don't make me feel more troubled."
After Mrs. Liu got up and walked back and forth in the room several times, she finally managed to think of a way and said to Jin Gu: "I am absolutely not allowed to come to the Emperor's side. I can only find a way outside the palace. You go out of the palace."
Tell Amma to use money to buy off the entourage who accompanied his brother to the woman's husband's house that day, and let him
Only in this way can I save my brother's life, but he will inevitably be imprisoned. In addition, let Amado stuff some money into Shuntian Prefecture. Although Concubine Xi is watching, Shuntian Prefecture Yin can't
He is too biased to help us, but as long as he takes the money, it will be good for us."
Jin Gu hesitated and said: "I'm afraid that at this juncture, Shuntian Prefecture Yin won't dare to accept you."
Mrs. Liu twitched her lips and said: "The money he collects from us is not enough. Besides, we didn't let him offend Concubine Xi. What's the big deal? In short, just ask Amma to do as I say.
Can."
"Yes, slave, go now!" After Jin Gu went down, Ms. Liu swept the steaming lotus seed soup to the ground with one palm. Looking at the messy ground, she secretly swore: today's revenge will be the same tomorrow.
She must ask Niu Hulu, Lingruo and Guarjia to get her back, otherwise she will not be a human being!
In the next few days, Yinzhen never turned over Shumulu's brand, which made her suffer from waiting night after night, and her heart became colder and colder at the same time.
Yinzhen has been deeply poisoned by the drug. It must be very hard for him to endure it without calling her for so many days. He would rather embarrass himself like this than call her. There is only one reason, that is, he has made a certain order for Ama.
