The queen mother is charming

Chapter 42
It rains in spring.

On the day of Zhong Chuchu's death, Mu Qingchao stood outside Beiyuan with an oil-paper umbrella.

Looking at the deep courtyard inside, one cannot see the bottom at a glance, when the little eunuch brought the food in just now, he clearly hid a white silk under the plate.

According to the history books, Concubine Yu was also bestowed to death by a white silk.

Probably, it is the established fate.

Mu Qingchao suddenly remembered that when Zhong Chuchu first entered the palace, she was so lively and proud when she sat on the palanquin and swaggered on her toes.

She has always been proud, the eldest daughter of the Zhong family, Mrs. Zhong loves her like eyeballs, and there are many princes from aristocratic families around her.

When she and her mother entered Zhong's house for the first time, Zhong Chuchu looked at her with her head held high: "Your father is Mu Changting? The third-rank censor is not a big official.

Now that there are no people, it is even more useless. "

"You will follow me from now on, help me carry things, run errands and be a servant girl. If I am happy, I can take care of you."

…………

What an invincible girl in the past, now she ends up in such a place, with a careless ending.

Mu Qingchao sighed, but did not sympathize.

Madam Ma sent her daughter to die with her own hands. It was really painful, but why didn't she kill her family members with her own hands back then?

Her pain at that time was no less than that of Ma Shi.

Zhong Chuchu had the backing of the Zhong family anyway, if she had softened her heart that day, she might die without even a whole body.

In this world of cannibalism, either she dies or I live.

Mu Qingchao was not generous enough to sacrifice himself to help the enemy.

"Queen Mother, it's raining heavily, we should go back."

Mu Qingchao stood outside the cold palace for a while, listening to Chunya whispering in his ear.

Mu Qingchao nodded, said: "Let's go" and turned to leave.

She didn't see that in the courtyard behind, Zhong Chuchu was strangled by the eunuch from behind, her eyes were open, and her hands were struggling hopelessly in mid-air.

After a while, she finally exhausted herself, let go of her hand, and lay down on the wild grass, crushing a few peonies just born in spring.

The continuous rain washed her half-worn clothes.

Mu Qingchao returned to the palace accompanied by Chunya, by coincidence, he saw a little maid squatting in the imperial garden.

The maid kept wiping away her tears facing a cluster of camellias, when she suddenly heard Mu Qingchao's voice above her head.

"Which palace are you from?"

The little servant girl was startled, and when she raised her head, she saw Mu Qingchao. She couldn't help but turned around and knelt down towards Mu Qingchao: "Damn it, I didn't see the empress dowager, the empress dowager, forgive me, the queen dowager..."

"Aijia asked you, which palace is it?"

The little servant girl thought that Mu Qingchao was going to ask for a crime, so she was terrified, but she could only reply with a trembling voice: "Slave... slave girl, Si... from Sicui Palace."

Si Cui Palace, there are two masters living in Si Cui Palace, one is Concubine Hui, and the other is Zhong Meiren. I don't know who this girl's master is.

Mu Qingchao laughed casually and said: "This beautiful flower blooms so brightly, it has poured your tears for no reason, so you should stop worrying."

When the servant girl heard this, she was heartbroken and sad, and said: "This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die..."

Just at this moment, a voice came from behind.

"The Empress Dowager is really in a good spirits, she is still in the mood to go for a walk when it's raining."

When Mu Qingchao turned his head, he saw the money coming. If it wasn't Zhong Yingying, who was it?

Zhong Yingying was wearing a brocade skirt embroidered with moonlight, Su, and clouds. She was not like her elder sister who loved to wear gorgeous clothes. She wore plain colors, and her slender figure made her look even weaker, giving her an air of elegance.

Behind her, a maid held a basket full of broken flowers.

Thinking about it, she felt sorry for Chunyu's beating of the disabled, and couldn't bear it, so she asked the servant girl to put it away.

She has always had such problems. For example, when the swallows in front of the porch fly away, she will cry, and when the leaves fall in autumn, she will also cry.

I think life is so good, there is really nothing to worry about, I can only hurt a little spring and sad a little autumn.

It's just that those princes and grandchildren love this set most, saying that she has a delicate mind and infinite talents.

Once, in order to curry favor with her, a son of a noble family picked up for her the first crabapple flower that fell on Mount Jiyue in autumn.

Are you saying it's ridiculous?
At this moment, Mu Qingchao looked at Zhong Yingying walking in front of him step by step, and raised his head: "Miss Zhong, when you entered the palace, there was no mother to teach you the rules?"

What this means is that Zhong Yingying should kneel down and salute when she sees her.

Zhong Yingying's complexion changed.

Naturally, she didn't want to kneel. The scene of Mu Qingchao returning to Zhong's house that day and humiliating the whole family was still vivid in her memory.

While hesitating, she heard Mu Qingchao say with a smile: "Miss Zhong Mei just entered the palace, so she probably hasn't heard about what happened to Concubine Yu that day?

It was said outside that Concubine Yu was domineering, but the second young lady of the Zhong family was docile, intelligent and sensitive, and she was superior to Concubine Yu in everything.

But the Ai family looked at it today, and it was nothing more than that.

Same thing... stupid. "

By saying this, Mu Qingchao was threatening Zhong Yingying with what happened to Zhong Chuchu that day.

There were so many people in the palace that they couldn't hide anything, the story of the Empress Dowager slapping Concubine Yu to teach her manners spread throughout the previous dynasty.

Although many people criticized Mu Qingchao for bullying others, in the end, it was Zhong Chuchu who suffered.

Zhong Chuchu was in the concubine position that day, and she still couldn't please Mu Qingchao here, let alone Zhong Yingying is just a mere beauty now.

Zhong Yingying was not as impulsive and irritable as her elder sister. Even though she felt unwilling, she lowered her head and said, "My concubine pays her respects to the empress dowager."

Mu Qingchao smiled: "If that's the case, you're considered good."

In a word, it was like training a dog, which made Zhong Chuchu feel even more ashamed.

She took another two steps forward, almost reaching Mu Qingchao, and said something in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"The empress dowager looks very proud of herself.

But what is the momentary scenery?Do you really think that I will be a beauty for the rest of my life, and be a little fugitive in front of you?

People still have to take a long-term view, and the winner is the one who laughs at the end. "

Mu Qingchao understood Zhong Yingying's words, which meant that she had the background of the Zhong family, so she would not be under others for a long time.

She has ambitions and means, and it is only a matter of time before she gets favored. When she has a prince, she will be able to firmly put Mu Qingchao under her feet.

However, Mu Qingchao pretended not to understand, took two steps back slightly, and his voice was clear and clear.

"Of course the Ai family doesn't want my sister to be a beauty for a long time, we are a family whose bones are broken, of course the Ai family hopes that my sister can take the position of queen step by step.

In this way, it will not be in vain that the Empress Jade Concubine specially vacated the position for you.

Come to think of it, if Empress Yufei knew about it, she would be happy for you. "

As soon as Mu Qingchao finished speaking, Zhong Yingying's face collapsed.

Others don't know, but Zhong Yingying still doesn't know?

What is a special position?
Her sister hated her because she entered the palace.

If it wasn't for hating her, he wouldn't have cursed every night, and ended up being strangled to death by a piece of white silk.

Zhong Yingying and Zhong Chuchu are biological sisters, and their relationship has always been very good. How can I not feel bad when my sister died because of her?
Because of this layer of discomfort, it seems that my expectations and ambitions for the future have also been covered with a layer of unhappiness.

However, Mu Qingchao poked her directly at her sore spot, telling her that your future prosperity is also paid for by your sister's life, so you are so vicious.

Zhong Yingying was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, Mu Qingchao had already walked away with her hair in a bun, twisting her waist.

The verbal battle between the two of them missed the front of the machine.

Zhong Yingying looked at the back of Mu Qingchao's charming Qiaoqiao, and only hated her teeth.
