After marrying wrongly, I became the general's white moonlight

Chapter 348 Where did the handkerchief come from?

I don't know if it was because of the recent major events, but everyone in the palace became more cautious in their words and deeds. Compared with the previous few months, the huge palace has added a bit of solemnity.

First, the truth about the late Concubine Ru's death came to light, then the empress was thrown into the cold palace, then the case of Suzhou Lu's corruption was overturned, and finally the big and small officials who had transactions with the Huo family were dealt with.

During the troubled times, no one noticed that the imperial concubine had been 'ill' for more than a month.

When the emperor asked, the second prince only said that the imperial concubine's condition has not improved for a long time, and she still needs to rest for a while.

In this way, the imperial concubine, who was usually in good health, could not afford to be ill for a long time.

At this time, the imperial concubine was still talking to Murong Qing.

"What's the scene outside now?"

The imperial concubine asked, speaking of it, even she herself couldn't count how many days and nights she had been locked up in the Huichun Palace.

Murong Qing thought for a while, but did not tell the noble concubine about Fang Anren's marriage, "It is almost the end of August, and the weather is getting colder. Your empress should remember to add clothes. By the way, the emperor took the Huo family's mines as state-owned and sent A group of troops went to Xiliang to guard and mine this mine, and besides, there is nothing serious in Beijing.”

The imperial concubine nodded. It turned out that she had been imprisoned for more than 20 days. Was it so long?
"What about the second prince, has he done any great things?"

Murong Qing replied, "I don't know about that, anyway, the second prince goes up and down as usual these days."

The noble concubine sighed after hearing this. It would be nice if she heard that her son showed some guilt. It seems that she still thought too much. At the same time, she was more and more disappointed in her son. He and his son can become strangers complaining to each other, even enemies.

At this time, the two people in the Huichun Palace didn't know that the person they were talking about was rushing towards them.

When the second prince stepped into the vermilion gate of the harem, a guard walked towards him nodding and bowing.

"Has Huichun Palace been patrolled, is there anyone suspicious?" the second prince asked.

The guard thought for a while, and replied flatteringly, "Of course not, the little one is well guarded, not a single fly can fly in, so don't worry, Second Highness."

The second prince was suspicious. He didn't intend to come to the palace, but he heard the report that Murong Qing's carriage had entered the palace. He was afraid that Murong Qing was here to find his mother and concubine, so he decided to go to the palace to see it in person. look.

"Is it true? Did you see the general's wife enter the palace?"

The guard patted his chest, and promised solemnly, "How dare you lie to the Second Highness, you little one, I really didn't see anyone visiting the harem."

The second prince heaved a sigh of relief, "That's good."

As he spoke, he took out a purse and threw it to the guard, "I've rewarded you, work hard."

The guard smiled brightly, "Thank you, Second Highness, I will do my best!"

The second prince thought he was here, so he might as well go and see the concubine mother.

Thinking of his mother and concubine, the second prince had a headache. He didn't feel that what he did was wrong, but was troubled by it, thinking that his mother and concubine had become his burden. On the one hand, he couldn't directly kill his mother and concubine. After all, the world would not allow a brutal man who killed his mother to sit on the throne. On the other hand, it was in his best interest for his mother to live.

So it's not right to kill now, if you don't kill, you will be frightened, the second prince is extremely irritable.

Thinking about it, he unknowingly came to the gate of Huichun Palace.

"Meet the Second Highness!"

The guards outside the door are all sent by the second prince. They know the second prince's unpredictable temper, and they are afraid that if they are disrespectful, they will lose their heads. Therefore, every time the second prince comes, they have to greet him loudly. This is unintentional. It reminded Murong Qing who was in the room.

Originally, Murong Qing was having a good talk with the noble concubine, but the voice from outside the door startled them all.

It was Jin Yu who was the first to react, and she said sharply, "The second prince is here, Mrs. General, you should hide!"

"it is good."

Murong Qing hurriedly got out of bed and put on his shoes. There were intermittent voices coming from outside the door. He couldn't hear what it was, but he probably guessed that it was the Second Prince asking the guards guarding the door.

"Unlock the lock, my prince will go in and see the concubine mother."

The second prince's voice was low and cold, and Murong Qing shivered unconsciously as he wanted to carry the dampness from hell.

"Quick, hide under the bed!" Jin Yu's hands were trembling.

The sound of metal chains colliding outside the door resounded continuously, like a note urging death, Murong Qing didn't care if he didn't clean up, and crawled under the bed with both hands and feet.

Fortunately, the sheet on this bed covered the bottom of the bed, and Murong Qing hid inside, so he wouldn't be found unless the sheet was lifted.

The imperial concubine was lying on the bed, pretending to be sleeping.

After hiding well, the wooden door opened with a 'squeak', followed by the second prince's footsteps.

Under the bed, Murong Qing held his breath, his heartbeat became more and more intense, as if it was going to jump out of his chest.

"Mother Concubine, why don't you eat? What if you're starving!"

The second prince Xu Shi saw the untouched food on the table, and spoke in a very impatient tone.

It was clearly a word of concern, but Murong Qing seemed to hear the hiss of a poisonous snake in these words.

Is it the way the second prince always talks with the imperial concubine?It's because of the recent quarrel, Murong Qing murmured in his heart, hearing the second prince's tone, it seemed that the evil contained in it had always been this bad.

The imperial concubine didn't speak, Jin Yu spoke first, "Second Highness, do you really want to do this? If the world knows that you treat your own mother like this, won't you be afraid that the world's spittle will drown you?"

"Ah!"

The second prince sneered, and quickly walked towards the noble concubine on the bed.

The footsteps sounded like Murong Qing's flustered heartbeat.

"Mother Concubine, if you want to starve to death, then next time, I will tell my servants that I don't need to bring you food. What do you think?"

The noble concubine propped herself up on the bed, crying blood every word, "Are you just looking forward to the death of the concubine mother?"

"Haha!" The second prince laughed, "How can my concubine say that? This is not a poison. Don't be afraid, my concubine. This medicine is specially made by my son and minister. It is not poisonous. Mother and concubine can take it at ease. will hurt you!"

"you you……"

The imperial concubine was so angry that she couldn't speak, she could only hold her aching heart, what Murong Qing said to her just now rang in her mind again.

Thinking, the imperial concubine feels better, forget it, just look away, such a son is not worth it, anyway, she still has a chance to escape.

The second prince had his hands behind his back, and he was ready to be scolded by his concubine mother, but at this moment, concubine mother suddenly became quiet.

He looked suspiciously at Concubine Mu lying on the bed, but found the white handkerchief clutched in her hand. He squinted and said, "Concubine Mu, why do you sleep with a handkerchief?"

The imperial concubine followed his gaze, only to realize that the handkerchief Murong Qing had given her hadn't been hidden, her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously hid the handkerchief behind her back.

But this move is undoubtedly that there is no silver 300 taels here.
