Listening to Mrs. Fucha's words, Ling Ruo took a sip of West Lake Longjing tea that exuded a strong aroma of tea, and said calmly: "These are just trivial matters, not worth mentioning. Speaking of which, I should thank Rong Changzai. If it weren't for Rong Changzai,
I don’t know that Ma Jia has many opinions about me and Zhaoqing, and even questions Zhaoqing’s origin.”
"I know that Ma Jia has always been a gossip, but I never expected that she would say such nonsense. I had already tried to persuade her, but she just couldn't listen, and she went too far.
I was excited for a moment and accidentally
He raised his voice, but he didn't expect that the fuss would be so big in the end, and Ma Jia was punished by the empress to go to Xinzheku." When Fucha said the next part, a trace of pride flashed in her eyes, very quickly, but she did not escape her attention.
Ling Ruo's eyes looked at her expression.
Ling Ruo blew the foam floating on the tea soup and said casually: "Is it really careless?"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Fucha's face suddenly became a little stiff, and she barely maintained a smile and said: "What do you mean by this?"
Ling Ruo stared at Mrs. Fucha, her eyes gradually becoming cold and stern, which made Mrs. Fucha dare not look directly, "I don't like talking in roundabout ways. I know whether Rong Changzai did it intentionally or not last night.
I understand, that’s why I say thank you, but if you continue to act smart, then there is no need for me and you to continue talking, so you can just kneel down and be in peace.”
Mrs. Fucha didn't expect that Ling Ruo had seen through her, and she was flustered for a moment. After calming down, she quickly stood up and knelt down and said: "I deserve to die, please forgive me, but I have no ill intentions towards your Majesty.
I hope your Majesty will learn from this."
Ling Ruo stared at her and said, "I know, otherwise I wouldn't have said so much to you. Tell me, why do you do so much?"
Her words made Fucha feel a little relieved, but she didn't dare to be clever anymore. She lowered her head and said, "I have always admired your Majesty. I only hope that I can follow you and serve you. I hope that I will not dislike you."
Her words of surrender had been expected by Ling Ruo, so he didn't even raise his eyelids. After she finished speaking, he raised his hand to support her and said: "Rong Chang is helping me like this, so why should I?"
I will dislike you, so get up quickly. I just spoke a bit harshly, I hope Rong Changzai won't take it off."
Mrs. Fucha was flattered and said: "Your Majesty, please don't say that. It is my honor to listen to your Majesty's instructions."
"That's good. It's just like I said, I don't like beating around the bush, so if Rong Chang has anything to say in the future, it's better to say it directly." As soon as Ling Ruo finished speaking, Mrs. Fucha nodded repeatedly.
He said: "I have written it down. Madam, please rest assured. I will definitely not do it again in the future."
Afterwards he said a few more words, and seeing that Ling Ruo was not very interested, Fucha said knowingly: "I will stop disturbing you, I will leave."
Ling Ruo nodded slightly and ordered: "Shui Xiu, send Rong Chang Zai out for me."
When Shuixiu sent Fucha away, Sanfu walked in and stepped aside to give him a slap. After he walked away, Sanfu said with a smile: "Master, this Rong Changzai is...
Come to show your kindness?"
Ling Ruo shook the palace fan in his hand and said, "What else can there be besides this? This Rong Chang Zai is also a person with a lot of thoughts."
"According to the slave, she is not only thoughtful, but also cold-hearted. The slave found out that she lived in the same palace with the Ma Jia family and had a very good relationship. However, the night before, she sold the Ma Jia family without any hesitation.
There was no hesitation. Looking at her, I thought of someone."
Ling Ruo raised her delicately painted eyebrows and said, "Oh, who is it?"
Sanfu whispered: "The former Wen nobleman - Wen Ruqing."
Ling Ruo will never forget these three words "Wen Ruqing" in her life. It was because of this treacherous and sinister woman that she killed Sister Wen. In her heart, even her own sister could be used and betrayed.
Seeing that Ling Ruo was deep in thought and silent, Sanfu continued: "Although I have not had much contact with Rong Chang Zai, based on this alone, I feel that Rong Chang Zai cannot be trusted."
Ling Ruo smiled sympathetically and said: "When did I say that I believed in her? Since she came to show her kindness to me, I will accept it. Otherwise, if she went to seek refuge with the queen, wouldn't it be giving the queen another chess piece?"
"Master is thoughtful, but this slave is too talkative." Before Sanfu could finish his words, Ling Ruo waved her hand and said, "One person is planning to be short-changed and the other is planning to make mistakes. It's a good thing that you help me think more."
Saying this, Ling Ruo raised her head and glanced at the sky, and said with a chuckle: "Although it is a little late, I haven't gone to pay my respects to our Queen after returning to the palace. If I don't go, I'm afraid I will say that I don't
I have put the Queen in my eyes. Let’s go, you accompany me there.”
"Hey." Sanfu didn't say much. He helped Ling Ruo to go to Kunning Palace as instructed. As soon as he stepped into Kunning Palace, he saw Du Juan leading several palace people in the courtyard, heading towards the trees and flowers.
Go, I don’t know what you are looking for.
Seeing Ling Ruo appear, Du Juan quickly stopped, knelt down and saluted, "I have seen Concubine Xi, and the concubine is very lucky."
Ling Ruo nodded and said curiously: "What are you looking for?"
Du Juan said anxiously: "When I get back to my wife, the slaves are looking for a Western dog. The Ministry of Internal Affairs just sent it not long ago. The master likes it very much and often teases it. Unexpectedly, when I got up early this morning, I found that the Western dog was missing.
The master was very unhappy and asked the slaves to find him. Alas, I don’t know where he went. I searched all over the front and back yards, but there was no trace of him."
Ling Ruo thought for a moment and said, "Could he have run out of Kunning Palace?"
"This palace has been guarded. If it ran out, someone would definitely see it. It must be hidden in some corner." After Du Juan answered, he looked at Ling Ruo and asked in a low voice, "I don't know, Madam.
Why are you here?"
Ling Ruowen said: "I have come to pay my respects to the Queen. I wonder if she is in the palace?"
"Master is here, please wait here for a moment, your servant. Please go in and report." After Ling Ruo nodded, she turned around and walked to the main hall. After a while, she came out and asked Ling Ruo to come in.
Although it is not yet Chenshi, it is not very hot, but ice cubes have been placed in the four corners of the hall, making the whole hall feel cool. Nala is sitting in the chair, with her ears next to her.
There is a bouquet of lilies in the vase. They look very fresh and must have been freshly picked.
Ling Ruo walked to the palace, bowed solemnly and said: "I, my concubine, see you, the Queen. She is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
"Concubine Xi, please get up." Nala's voice still sounded as gentle as before, "You have just returned to the palace not long ago. You should be taking a good rest. Why are you here in this palace?"
