Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 20 Two Faces
He turned his head, turned his back to the queen mother, seemed to wink at Su Lijin, and walked out of the imperial study.

When Su Lijin came to the temple, she bent her knees and was about to kneel. The maid next to her supported her and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is a daughter of gold, so you don't need to kneel. The slaves won't tell the Queen Mother."

Happiness came so suddenly, the light in Su Lijin's eyes flickered, she picked up the female ring on the chopping board, and asked tentatively: "Then this punishment?"

The maid reached out to take it, picked up the pen and paper, and copied it in the temple. "The queen is in the temple, is it still safe?" Xiao Shengyong blew off the froth on the teacup, and took a light sip.

The dark guard bit his lower lip, helplessly suppressing a smile: "The empress just ordered the imperial dining room to make a pastry and send it to the temple."

Xiao Shengyong almost choked on the tea he had just taken.

The queen mother punished her to copy the women's ring a hundred times, and she had to show it to the queen mother, but judging by the situation, Su Lijin might not even have time to copy it, otherwise she wouldn't have the leisure to eat, so happy!

Xiao Shengyun Qingmeng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Where's the queen?"

The guard's expression was half a smile but not a smile: "The little one quietly opened the door and took a look. The queen didn't even take the pen, so she asked the maid to copy it there!"

Hearing this, Xiao Shengyun couldn't help laughing.

Fortunately, a maid was arranged in advance to help, otherwise, with that concubine's temper, I really don't know how many times I would have scolded myself in my heart.

A smile appeared in Xiao Shengyun's eyes: "Continue to look at the queen, and if there is any disturbance, come and report to me."

Su Lijin was sitting comfortably on the coffee table in the temple, and she didn't notice a pair of eyes in the dark at all.

Xiao Zhaolin's confidant came to the temple disguised as a court lady, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Empress, the virtuous king asked Xiaodi to bring you a word."

Su Lijin swallowed the pastry in her mouth, patted the residue off her hands, and said, "What does he want to do?"

The confidant leaned down and whispered in her ear: "The master wants to meet the empress at the old place."

Su Li frowned, it had only been a few days without contact, Xiao Zhaolin couldn't bear his temper so quickly.

When she thought of Xiao Zhaolin's virtues, she was afraid that she would be a monster, but she wanted to see what kind of tricks he wanted to play: "I will go!"

Su Lijin sneaked out from the secret passage and came outside the palace.

Xiao Zhaolin had been waiting in the restaurant for a long time.

Su Lijin sat down on the dining table unceremoniously, picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks, and said calmly, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Zhaolin smiled slightly, his eyes fell on her, and he said love words: "Jin'er, why haven't you come to visit me for a long time, I miss you very much."

Su Lijin paused while holding the chopsticks, why did she feel so disgusted?
Su Lijin put down her chopsticks, cleared her throat, and said with an excuse: "It's not that the emperor is watching closely and won't let me go out of the palace."

These words are not false, Su Lijin is speaking the truth, and there is no clue on the surface.

Xiao Shengxun was very cautious, he was grounded by him just for showing his feet a little bit, and was punished by the Queen Mother for this!

Xiao Zhaolin himself also has cronies in the palace, so he naturally knew it was not a lie, and a trace of almost imperceptible emotion flashed in his eyes: "This king has something good for you."

A flash of disgust flashed in Su Lijin's eyes, and her expression quickly returned to normal: "What?"

He took out a palm-sized bottle from his sleeve: "You don't need to ask too much, as long as you put this in his meal, you don't have to worry about Xiao Shengying watching closely anymore."

Su Li raised her eyebrows, she really thought she was stupid, did she think she couldn't see it!
This is... he is going to poison Xiao Shengxun.

She stuffed the bottle into her palm with a smile on her face.

Don't worry, just pretend to agree first, let him relax his vigilance, and then slowly find a chance to deal with him!

Su Lijin said against his will: "Thank you, son, now I see how Xiao Shengyun grounded me! I think I can have a drink with you soon!"

Xiao Zhaolin agreed with a smile, and no more greetings after the goal was achieved, and Su Lijin didn't want to make false claims with him, the two chatted for a few words, and then went back home.

The hidden guard sneaked into the Tai Chi Hall, looked at Xiao Shengyong who was sitting on the imperial chair, and said with a stern expression: "Your Majesty, the Queen sneaked out of the palace today."

Knowing that Su Lijin would not be able to stay in the temple, Xiao Shengyun was not surprised when he heard the words, and waved his hand: "Let her go."

It's just going out of the palace, are you afraid that she will overthrow the palace?

The dark guard frowned in embarrassment, stepped forward and said: "I saw the Empress after returning to the palace, holding a medicine bottle and carefully hiding it in the bedroom, as if afraid of being discovered."

Xiao Shengyun lowered his eyes and did not speak.

The secret guard thought for a moment, and said: "I went to the restaurant with the empress, and I heard they said they were going to put it in the food..."

At this moment, Su Lijin's little maid rushed over.

When the dark guard heard the sound, he hid himself in a dark place to avoid being discovered, and the eunuch also approached again, pretending that nothing happened, and waited aside.

The palace maid bowed and said slowly, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager will cook in person and would like to invite the emperor to have dinner together."

Xiao Shengyun's brows trembled slightly. If it was different, Su Lijin would definitely not take the initiative to come to him.

Today is unprecedented?She never went into the kitchen, but she actually cooks by herself.

This is still her gesture of showing favor to him.

Thinking of the guard's words, Xiao Shengyun's mood became complicated.

There was no turmoil on his face, and he said lightly: "I know, step back."

After the maid left, the secret guard stepped forward again and said, "Empress Empress, I'm afraid this will be detrimental to Your Majesty..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiao Shengyun sharply: "Shut up! I have to say it!"

Although Xiao Shengyun said so, he closed his eyes deeply and thought.

Su Lijin is trying to poison him?
But he doesn't believe it!Obviously a few days ago, the relationship between the two had already begun to ease.

Or is it just that she thinks so, is she really ruthless now, and wants to put him to death?

Could it be that the smile on her face and the words she said were all fake?
Xiao Shengyun's face was gloomy, and the dark guard wanted to continue to dissuade him, but Xiao Shengyun had already walked towards Su Lijin's bedroom without looking back.

The aroma of food came from the palace, Xiao Shengyun pushed the door and entered the room, and saw Su Lijin came up with a smile: "Your Majesty is coming."

There was a layer of frost in Xiao Shengyao's clear eyes, through her smile, thinking of the words of the dark guard, he only felt heartache.

"Come and have a meal, taste the concubine's craftsmanship." Su Lijin pulled out the chair and put the bowls and chopsticks on the table.

Xiao Shengyun sat on the chair calmly, but his eyes stayed on her all the time.

With a faint smile on her face, she calmly added the bowls and chopsticks, without any clues.

Xiao Shengyun lowered his eyes, he only felt a chill coming from his heart, and his whole body was uncomfortable and cold.

"Don't the emperor try it quickly? The concubine has been cooking for a long time, and I'm afraid some of the dishes are cold." Su Lijin sat down facing him and urged.

This action aggravated Xiao Shengyun's suspicion. Was she so impatient to poison him?
