Hearing this, Mrs. Liu forced out a smile and said: "Returning to the imperial concubine, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent kumquats before. I tasted a few and thought they tasted very good, so I brought some to the emperor to taste. I didn't want to
It is indeed a coincidence that I met my empress here."
Ling Ruo's smile did not change and she said: "I see, I just thought that Concubine Qian came to talk to the emperor. Now that we have met, why don't I go in with you? It just so happens that Hongli also has something to say to him.
Huang Ama said."
From the moment she saw Ling Ruo, Mrs. Liu knew that she had missed a great opportunity. Her movements were already very fast. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Niu Hulu's reaction was not weaker than hers. At this moment, she had already chosen the best path.
The right path instead of wandering on the wrong path.
Mrs. Liu endured the annoyance in her heart and forced a smile and said: "Since the fourth elder brother has something to tell the emperor, I can't disturb you, so I went back first. As for these kumquats, I ask the empress to hand them over to you."
"I will hand it over to the Emperor with my own hands." Following these words, Shui Xiu took the food box containing kumquats from Jin Gu.
After Mrs. Liu left, Shuixiu whispered: "Master, I feel that the humble concubine and the drunkard are not interested in drinking."
"I know." Ling Ruo looked at Liu's leaving figure and said coldly: "She must be here for Hongli's affairs. Fortunately, I came in time, otherwise I don't know how she would arrange Hongli's affairs in front of the emperor.
." With that said, she looked at Hongli who was standing behind her, "Remember, after entering, just tell your emperor what happened. Don't make it too obvious about your guesses and ideas.
, do you know?"
"I know." Hongli nodded solemnly. After letting Si Xi pass the report, Ling Ruo entered the Yangxin Hall with him. Yinzhen had just finished approving the last memorial, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
After they saluted, they chuckled and said, "Why are you two, mother and son, here together today?"
Before he finished speaking, Hongli knelt down with his knees on the ground and said, "My son, I came here specifically to apologize to Emperor Ama."
"Excuse me?" Yinzhen has been in the Yangxin Palace all day today. He still doesn't know what happened in the palace, so he asked in surprise: "Why do you apologize?"
Hongli lowered his head and said nothing, but Ling Ruo said: "Hongli, just tell your Majesty's Majesty the matter, your Majesty's Majesty will definitely believe what you say."
"Yes." With that said, Hongli told what happened in Zhongcui Palace again, but this time he said it for a long time and did not add any subjective guesses. He just discussed the matter. Even so,
This was enough to surprise Yinzhen. Later, he stood up directly, walked to Hongli, and said in a deep voice: "You said that La Xianyue tore your clothes on purpose?"
This statement is really unbelievable. Nala Xianyue is not only a woman, but also a beautiful girl. No matter what, she should not do such a self-destructive thing. If you look at it according to normal thinking, it should be...
"Yes." Hongli suppressed his hatred for Nala Xianyue and said: "Huang Ama, the situation was indeed like this at that time. I didn't know what she wanted to do. Later, other beautiful girls came in and thought that I
I am so scornful of her, and it is hard for me to defend myself. Your Majesty, I can swear to God that I really did not do anything inappropriate, let alone belittle her."
When Yinzhen was silent, Ling Ruo said from the side: "Your Majesty, when Hongli said this to me just now, I also felt a little incredible. How could a good woman do such a shameless thing? But Hongli
Li was born and raised by my concubine. I know his character very well and will not lie to others."
Yinzhen nodded, stared at Yinzhen and said, "Then do you know why Nala Xianyue did this?"
"The situation was very chaotic at that time, but Erchen heard her say that she wanted to be Erchen's direct descendant." Before Yinzhen could speak, Hongli said eagerly: "In fact, Eniang had already told Erchen that she wanted to be his direct descendant."
When I chose Fu Jin for my son, I said that I would only marry Fucha Mingyu, and I would never marry anyone else."
"Nala Xiayue..." Yinzhen murmured the name. He knew that this was Yingge's young daughter and Nala's niece, but he had never seen this woman. After thinking for a while, he thought about waiting for him.
Xiao Wu on the side said: "Go to Zhongcui Palace immediately and bring Nala Xianyue. I have something to ask her."
"Hey!" Xiao Wu responded and quickly left the Yangxin Hall. After he left, Yinzhen also said to Hongli who was kneeling on the ground: "Get up and wait until Nala Xianyue comes.
"
Ling Ruo understood that Yinzhen wanted to confront Nala Xianyue face to face, so as to truly clarify the matter. Xianyue may be really shrewd and the city is very clear, but compared with Nala, she is still less
With a certain amount of fire and experience, it is impossible for him to deceive Yinzhen like Nala.
If Yinzhen can control Xianyue and the entire situation before things get serious, Hongli will have a great chance of averting the danger.
After waiting for a long time, Xiao Wu finally came back, but he didn't see Nala Xianyue. Yinzhen said displeasedly: "Didn't I ask you to pass Nala Xianyue on? Where is she?"
Xiao Wu ignored the sweat on his forehead and knelt down and said: "To return to the emperor, I was ordered to go to Zhongcui Palace to convey to the young master Xiayue, but the steward aunt said that just before the servant went, the young master Xiayue was there.
He hanged himself in the house. Fortunately, he was discovered in time, otherwise he would have died by now."
"Is there such a thing?" Yinzhen frowned. Just now, he had roughly concluded that Xianyue did this, but now that he heard Xiao Wu say that she hanged herself, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken. If it was really her fault.
, the purpose is to become Hongli's direct descendant Fu Jin, he should be having his way, how could he hang himself, it really doesn't make sense.
Xiao Wu said quickly: "What I said back to the emperor is absolutely true. It is precisely because the little master Xianyue is still in a coma that I failed to bring her."
Compared to Yinzhen, this incident touched Ling Ruo more. The whole incident happened one after another, starting from Xianyue's acceptance of Hongzhou until now. This situation has never stopped. It seems that this time Yingge
He made up his mind to marry Xianyue to Hongli.
She is not surprised that Yingge regards Xianyue as a pawn. What is strange is why Xianyue would be willing to become a pawn, sacrificing the next few decades and marrying a person who does not love at all, or even hates, just for the sake of the Nala family.
?
While Ling Ruo was still thinking, Yinzhen said, "Have you ever asked the imperial doctor to see you?"
Xiao Wu lowered his head and said, "When I return to the emperor, the steward's aunt has already asked the imperial doctor to take a look. It should be fine."
After Xiao Wu retreated, Hongli said: "Huang Ama, my son..."
Before he could continue, Yinzhen raised his hand and said, "Okay, I know this well. You and your mother-in-law should go back first."
