Hongli glanced at Ling Ruo, saw her nodding slightly, rolled up the portraits one by one and said, "I'll go over there right away."
After Hongli left, Yinzhen took Ling Ruo's hand and sat down together, asking with concern: "How is it? Have you suffered any grievances in the Shenxing Department?"
Ling Ruo turned her head and smiled and said: "The emperor deliberately asked Hongli to go to Cining Palace just to ask about this matter?"
At this time, the sky was getting late, just like what was painted in Hongli's sunset painting, the tired birds returned to their nests, the afterglow was deep, a few dragonflies fluttered among the flowers and trees in the courtyard, and the childlike palace servants stretched out their hands
He went to catch it, but Dragonfly turned around to avoid it, and the catch was in vain. When he tried to catch it again, the older palace man had already walked over and stopped him, asking him to continue doing his own thing.
Yinzhen looked at this scene silently and said with a faint smile: "Hongli has always been filial to you. If he knows that you have been imprisoned in the Sentence Department, he will have to worry again. What, can you answer me?
?”
Yinzhen's words made Ling Ruo feel a warm current in her heart. She smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have nothing to do with you. No one from the Shenxing Department dared to make me suffer. Later, the Queen came to pick me up in person."
go out."
"That's good." Zhenwei nodded and said with some displeasure: "The Queen has always been prudent and pragmatic in her work. How could she be so reckless this time? She ignored you indiscriminately and left it to her subordinates.
The palace servants framed you. I really don’t know if she was stabbed by Nian’s knife so much that her brain was injured, and she no longer had the caution and tolerance before."
These words coming from Yinzhen's mouth are considered very serious, but Ling Ruo did not take this opportunity to add insult to injury. After what happened today, she had already cornered Nala.
He was not one to jump over the wall in a hurry, so he said warmly: "The Queen must have been confused for a while, and she was also angry about Sanfu's affair with Jade, which is why she was like this. The Queen made it clear after she took the concubine out of the Shenxing Division."
After hearing Ling Ruo's words, Yinzhen said: "How about it, have Sanfu and the others settled their affairs? Are you satisfied with being a matchmaker?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ling Ruo sighing heavily, and couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong? Could it be that the queen still doesn't agree and is deliberately making things difficult?"
Ling Ruo shook his head and said: "That's not true, but when the queen ordered people to pass on the jade, she was found to have committed suicide by throwing herself into a well. Therefore, although the emperor had some mercy and granted them a favor, they were separated by Yin and Yang and had no chance to meet each other.
Together."
Yinzhen was surprised and said strangely: "Throw yourself into a well? Why do you do this?"
"The queen said that she committed suicide out of fear of crime, but I still find it strange. Jade and Sanfu are so devoted to each other, why would they abandon Sanfu and leave first?" When saying this, Ling Ruo looked at her carefully.
Yinzhen glanced at it and said slowly: "So I always feel that there is something fishy in this."
"What do you mean by something strange?" Yinzhen looked at Ling Ruo intently. At that time, the palace servant was bringing in a plate covered with silver and placing it on the table. Although the cover was not opened, there was still a trace of it.
The aroma comes out and lingers in your nose.
Ling Ruo bit her teeth gently and said with a hint of solemnity: "I am wondering whether Jade Cui did not commit suicide, but... someone harmed her?"
Yinzhen's eyes flashed, and he said solemnly: "Who does Concubine Xi refer to, the queen?"
"I don't dare, I just think something is fishy." Ling Ruo's words just now were intended to test Yinzhen to see if he still had some trust in Nala. If he really had no trust at all.
It can be said that
She doesn't mind taking the risk of being the one to add insult to injury. Maybe Nala will find a way to counterattack, but as long as Yinzhen doesn't stand on her side and let her try her best, nothing will happen, let alone threaten herself.
It's a pity that Nala's decades of meekness and prudence are not in vain. Although Yinzhen is still dissatisfied with her now, it is not to the worst point. "Although the queen is confused this time, judging from her true intentions,
He is not a vicious person, and Feicui has been with her for so many years, how could he harm her? Concubine Xi, you are overthinking."
"Yes." Ling Ruo agreed helplessly. Once a person has a preconceived idea, it is not easy to change his mind. "There is also another thing. Because of Jade's death, Sanfu did not want to stay in Kunning Palace to see things and think about people.
, wants to follow my concubine, the queen will hand him over to my concubine after fifty strokes."
Although Yinzhen felt that fifty walking sticks was a bit too much, he didn't say anything. After all, Sanfu was Nala's servant. Now that he wanted to follow someone else, Nala's agreement was already a special favor.
After nodding to show his understanding, he said: "Okay, don't talk about this anymore, come and have a meal with me. So many things have happened during this period, and I have never had time to sit down and have a good meal with you."
After the palace official lifted the silver cover, Ling Ruo said with a smile: "Isn't it true? Even if the emperor has time, he still goes to see Mr. Qian, so how can he have time to spend time with his concubine?"
Yinzhen laughed when she said it, "You girl, you are always confusing right and wrong. Aren't I accompanying you now? You, eat more, take good care of yourself, and then spread your wings for me like Runyu."
, I will be happy if I have a daughter.”
Ling Ruo brought the filled soup to Yinzhen and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is thinking too far ahead. I don't even have a shadow of my concubine yet. You are thinking about having a daughter. If you can't give birth, you will
Shouldn’t we still blame my concubine?”
Yinzhen said with certainty: "I believe that you and I will have a daughter."
Ling Ruo smiled and shook her head. She really didn't know where Yinzhen got her confidence, but no matter what, this was a beautiful expectation. If it could come true, she would be grateful for the rest of her life.
After the meal, because Yinzhen wanted to see Mrs. Liu, he didn't stay overnight. Ling Ruo had expected this, but she was still a little disappointed when she saw Yinzhen leave.
Seeing her depressed look, Shui Xiu couldn't help but said: "Master, since you don't want to leave the Emperor, why don't you ask the Emperor to stay."
"I stayed this time, but what about next time and the next time?" Ling Ruo sighed heavily and said: "The emperor is not the emperor of this palace alone. I cannot be too greedy."
Shuixiu was silent for a while, then suddenly remembered something and lowered her voice: "Master, did you say that Lord Qian discovered the problem of Jade Guanyin? If he discovered it, why is it so quiet in Xianfu Palace that there is no sound at all?
No."
Ling Ruo looked at her and asked without answering, "Then what do you think it should be?"
"That's..." Shui Xiu glanced around, and then continued, "That's musk. It's the most dangerous to the fetus. Qian Gui should make a big fuss about it, but Wen Gui won't let it go."
." Ever since Ling Ruo tampered with the Jade Guanyin that Wen Ruqing gave to the Liu family, they have been sending people to secretly watch the Xianfu Palace, but everything is the same as before.
