Chapter 24 The general heroine who has been in the cold palace (12)
As soon as Mu Xing returned to Yangxin Palace, he vomited all over the place.
He pressed his stomach and tried to vomit out all the dinner he had eaten today, but to no avail; he had to pour the antidote he had prepared from a small porcelain bottle and swallowed it in one gulp.
When swallowing the medicine, Mu Xing's hands were trembling: Xiao Zhen, this lunatic, really wants me to die!
Seeing this, the palace maid who was arranged to administer the medicine knew what had happened and asked, "Your Majesty, what's going on?"
Mu Xing only felt that his stomach was still a little queasy. He held back his nausea and said, "I went to the Queen's Palace for dinner——"
The palace maid pretended to be exclaimed: "Ah! What did the queen say?"
"She must have found out about the poisoning, but she didn't tell her clearly." Mu Xing said with a gloomy face, "I guess she doesn't dare to fall out with me. I have plenty of ways to cure her."
"Your Majesty, what's your plan?"
Mu Xing snorted coldly: "Poisoning will definitely not work. Let me think of a more comprehensive solution..."
Until Mu Xing comes up with a perfect solution, he still has to live in Lin Zhen's shadow with his tail between his legs.
In order that the lie he had just told to the Queen would not be revealed, Mu Xing took the antidote and rested for a while, then another message from the imperial court came: "Go to Concubine Shu's palace."
Concubine Shu was very unhappy about this.
She originally made an appointment with Concubine Xian and the two nobles to play cards together tonight, but Mu Xing came over inexplicably. She couldn't play cards, so she had to serve him carefully. Who could bear this?
?
But she was only depressed for a while, and then she put on a professional smile and welcomed Mu Xing into the palace: "I am here to see your majesty. How come your majesty has time to come to my concubine today?"
Wouldn't it be better to fight your crickets during this time?
Mu Xing did not hear Concubine Shu's faint impatience, but felt that Concubine Shu's submissive attitude made him feel comfortable.
He held Concubine Shu's slender and soft hand and said: "When I have free time occasionally, I want to come and see you. In this palace, you are the only one who wins my heart the most!"
While making tea for Mu Xing, Concubine Shu said softly: "How virtuous and capable I am, how dare you be praised by Your Majesty like this?"
Mu Xing took the tea that Concubine Shu had brewed for him, shook his head and sighed: "If the queen were half as virtuous as you, I wouldn't be like this -"
Concubine Shu couldn't help but frown: No, don't get me involved in your quarrel with the queen! I still want to live for a few more years!
She quickly changed the subject: "Speaking of this, when the queen sent someone to convey a message to the concubine's palace today, she said that your majesty was left by the queen today and would not come to my palace to have a meal——"
At this point, she tugged on her handkerchief with a puzzled expression: "But, Your Majesty didn't agree to come to my concubine's palace for dinner before?"
Mu Xing suddenly became nervous and asked, "How did you answer?"
Concubine Shu knew something was going on here as soon as she saw his expression. She secretly kept an eye on it and replied: "I said that I know about it, so the queen doesn't have to worry about me."
"That's all you said?"
"Well, the palace maid left after delivering the message and didn't ask any more questions."
Mu Xing felt relieved. He nodded and changed the topic: "What kind of person do you think the queen is?"
The direction of this topic is getting more and more dangerous.
Concubine Shu rolled her eyes and said: "I think the Queen is very good, kind, virtuous and generous. Your Majesty is really lucky to have such a good wife like the Queen!"
Mu Xing snorted coldly from his nose: "You said Xiao Zhen is kind, virtuous, and generous? I think she is arrogant and domineering, unable to recognize her own identity, and does not take me, the emperor, seriously at all!"
This is normal. If I had the skills of the queen, I wouldn't take a fool like you seriously.
Concubine Shu thought so and comforted Mu Xing: "The Queen was born as a general, and she also made great achievements in the military. She may have a bad temper, but she must respect Your Majesty in her heart. Why are Your Majesty so angry?"
."
But Mu Xing could no longer listen to such words.
He looked at the gentle and graceful Concubine Shu in front of him, and he couldn't help but have an idea that he thought was brilliant -
He held Concubine Shu's hand and asked: "My dear concubine, do you want to be the queen?"
Concubine Shu was so shocked that she almost slapped his hand off: Oh my god, please don't hurt me!
She reluctantly showed a wry smile: "Your Majesty, the Queen has worked hard and achieved great results. How could Your Majesty have such an idea?"
"I can't stand Xiao Zhen anymore," Mu Xing gritted his teeth and said, "She doesn't see me as an emperor at all. In her heart, I'm just her puppet who controls the court!"
"Then...what are your Majesty's plans?"
Mu Xing revealed his plan: "In a few days, you call your mother to the palace, and I will draft an imperial edict. You ask your mother to take the edict out of the palace and give it to your father."
Good guy, such a plan! If the Queen finds out, not to mention Mu Xing’s fate, his whole family will also be dragged into the water!
Concubine Shu seemed to see the place of execution waving towards her, where her family was confiscated and her family was exterminated, and she couldn't help but shudder.
To confirm, she asked: "Your Majesty, what should be written in the imperial edict?"
Mu Xing looked very proud of his plan and said, "Of course the way to do this is to order the courtiers to enter the palace and get rid of Xiao Zhen!" In order to win over Concubine Shu, he painted a cake for her, "If this happens, I will seal you
For the queen!"
Concubine Shu did not accept this trick. She fell on the ground and kowtowed: "I have neither talent nor virtue. I would never dare to have such an evil thought."
I don’t want to be a queen! If this doesn’t work out, I’m going to lose my head! Concubine Shu roared in her heart.
Mu Xing just thought that Concubine Shu was trying to catch her, so he stretched out his hand to pull her up, and continued to describe his plan to her.
Concubine Shu looked at the way he talked about his plan in a confused manner, and she secretly made up her mind.
The night was particularly long today.
Concubine Shu was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Thinking about what Mu Xing said, she felt as if needles were pricking her back, and she kept her eyes open until dawn.
The Queen should have gone to court by now, right? She calculated the time silently in her mind: I heard that the Queen would go to court at noon every day, and then go to the imperial study to approve memorials. She could go to the imperial study to find her at that time.
But she didn't expect that Mu Xing could sleep until noon.
Concubine Shu looked at Mu Xing who was lying on the bed, sleeping heavily. She couldn't help gritting her teeth, reluctantly stepped forward and pushed him, and said softly: "Your Majesty, it's time to get up."
Mu Xing was suddenly shaken awake, his mind was still a little confused, and he shouted angrily: "How outrageous! Anyone who dares to disturb my clear dream will be pulled down and beheaded!"
Concubine Shu knelt down with a "pop" sound.
"Your Majesty, forgive me."
Mu Xing sat up, rubbed his temples, and finally remembered: he was in Concubine Shu's palace now, and he still had something to ask Concubine Shu to do!
He quickly stood up and helped Concubine Shu up, "My beloved concubine, get up quickly. Oops, I was so sleepy that I forgot that my beloved concubine was here. Don't take it to heart."
Concubine Shu showed him an understanding smile.
She dressed Mu Xing meekly and helped him wash up. At the same time, she very carelessly mentioned that someone in the palace had gotten a big new cricket.
As soon as Mu Xing heard the news, he obviously couldn't sit still. He only had a few bites of rice in Shu Fei's palace, and then hurried to the imperial garden.
After finally seeing off Mu Xing, Concubine Shu hurriedly sent the sedan chair, "Quick, I'm going to the imperial study room!"
