"Is it just trouble?" Nala sneered: "I'm afraid that I will lose my life. If I let Brother Six give me crazy medicine and push Concubine Jin into the water, any one thing can kill me.
Especially Hongshi is now at a time when he is out of power.
"But let me tell you, although Concubine Xi's trick is unexpected and ruthless, it still kills one thousand enemies and damages herself three hundred."
Nala said without surprise: "Are you talking about her taking advantage of Zhou Xing?"
"I don't know whether Concubine Jin has really recovered from her madness, but Zhou Xing must be the chess piece that Concubine Xi brought to force Haitang to show her weakness. The emperor must have noticed this. The emperor hates deception the most. Concubine Xi did this."
Undoubtedly, it violated the emperor's taboo. Although the emperor didn't say anything at the time, he probably wouldn't let it go easily. Maybe the emperor just asked Concubine Xi to go with him just because he wanted to ask her about this matter."
Nala suddenly sighed and said: "I have thought of it, but this will not shake her foundation. After all, the emperor's feelings for her are beyond the reach of anyone else."
Xiao Ningzi also understood this in her heart. As long as Ling Ruo didn't make a big mistake, Yinzhen would definitely not do anything to her. At most, she would scold her a few words and leave her in the cold for a while.
Xiao Ningzi changed the subject and said, "Master, what about the Liu family? Can we let her stay in Xinzheku?"
Nala thought for a while and said: "After this incident is over and the limelight is no longer so tight, you can ask the people in Xinzheku to take care of Mrs. Liu as much as possible. This woman is still useful."
Xiao Ningzi understood that the usefulness mentioned by Nala must be related to the sixth elder brother. Liu was also lucky. After the emperor ascended the throne, so many beautiful women entered the palace, but she was the only one to give birth to her elder brother. This time, if
If the master had not used Sixth Brother to impress the emperor, she would have died long ago.
"I'm tired, please help me go inside to rest for a while." After walking a few steps, Nala glanced at the Boshan stove where the white smoke was still there and said, "Take this to the bedroom as well."
Xiao Ningzi was a little surprised, but she still followed the instructions. She always thought that Nala didn't like burning incense, but she had a special liking for this incense. She would light some from time to time, and this time she even took it to the bedroom.
, this has never happened before.
According to Nala's usage, it seems that the incense he got last time will not last long, and he will have to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some more.
On the other side, Ling Ruo followed Yinzhen to the Yangxin Hall. Along the way, Yinzhen didn't say a word. It wasn't until he sat behind the imperial desk that he said: "Your Majesty, I ask you about Concubine Jin's madness."
Has it gotten better?"
From now on, when they get along in private, Yinzhen calls her "Ruo'er". Once she is called "noble concubine", it means that Yinzhen is angry.
Ling Ruo knelt down silently and said, "I deserve to die. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
It's okay if she didn't say it. As soon as she said it, Yinzhen's eyes were suddenly filled with anger, and he said coldly: "So, Concubine Jin's illness has not improved at all, and everything you said in front of me is also a lie.
?”
At this point, what else could Ling Ruo say? She could only say truthfully: "Yes."
"And Zhou Xing, too, right? He didn't see Concubine Jin being pushed into the water at all. Those words you said before were basically what you taught him to say." The more Yinzhen spoke, the angrier he became, and his chest heaved violently.
When Ling Ruo spoke, he slapped his palm hard on the imperial case and stood up.
He said: "My concubine, why are you doing this? I trust you so much and have never had any doubt, but you treat me like a monkey. What's wrong? Does this make you very proud? Because even the king of the country has been fooled by you.
Playing with the palm of your hand."
These words were really too serious. How could Ling Ruo bear it? She hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I have no intention of doing this. I just want to unmask the Liu family and the Queen so that the Emperor can see them clearly."
The true face of despicableness.”
"They are despicable, but what about you? What's good about you?" Yinzhen kept clenching and unclenching a hand behind his back, trying to suppress the anger in his heart and prevent it from exploding, "You know that I
What I hate the most is that people tell lies.
If you still want to violate this taboo, do you think that I love you and feel guilty for you because of some things in the past, so you unscrupulously challenge my limits. My concubine, what do you think of me? Do you regard me as your husband?
Look at it!”
At that moment, Ling Ruo almost shed tears, shook her head repeatedly and said: "I am, in my heart, the emperor is the most important person!"
Before he finished speaking, Yinzhen roared: "If it is true as you said, how could you lie to me like this? Even if I am not the emperor today, and I am not the emperor who reigns over the world, I still can't stand your deception!"
Although Mrs. Liu also deceived him, he had no feelings for Mrs. Liu. Cheating is cheating, and he should be punished and killed. There was no need to be too angry. But Ling Ruo was different, that was what he valued most in his life.
The woman was the woman he loved the most and gave him the most complete trust. Because of this, he couldn't stand Ling Ruo's deception.
Ling Ruo said with tears: "If I tell the emperor like this that it was the Liu family and the queen who caused Concubine Jin to be like this, will the emperor believe it?"
"You haven't tried it, so how do you know that I won't believe it, but now... I really have to think about whether to believe it or not. You keep saying that the queen also harmed Concubine Jin, and even gave her crazy medicine, but where is the evidence? The evidence is there
Where?" At this point, Yinzhen sneered and said: "In other words, this is another kind of deception of yours."
Ling Ruo was speechless, because she really deceived Yinzhen, which was equivalent to destroying Yinzhen's trust with her own hands, and this was the price she paid for exposing Liu's true face. It was a pity that the queen was not dragged into the trap as well.
She knew very well that no matter what she said at this moment, Yinzhen would not believe it, so she could only say: "I know that I am guilty, please forgive me!"
"You!" Yinzhen glared angrily. He wanted to deal with Ling Ruo, but he couldn't bear it. He hurt her, but he was actually hurting himself. How could he let it go!
After a long time, he punched the table with his fist and said sternly: "I just don't understand why you have to lie to me and why you do what I don't like the most."
Ling Ruo said sadly: "Because I have no choice, Mrs. Liu has caused such misery to my sister. I must avenge my sister and let her get the punishment she deserves. But in the end, the emperor spared me for the sake of my sixth brother."
Passed Liu's life."
Yinzhen said indifferently: "Death is only a momentary thing, but living is a long-term thing. I punished Liu family to Xinzheku not just because of my pity for Hongzhan. Only by living can she truly atone for her sins. As for the queen,
