Chapter 7
A sharp look flashed in his eyes, and Su Lijin turned around the first time he felt the force, avoiding the hand of the person who came.

As soon as she stood firm, the latter was already standing in front of her.

Under the moonlight, the long sword exuding a cold light touched her neck.

"The empress has been in prison for a long time, so the old man must have handed over the things? Take out the things, and I will spare your life!"

The visitor wore a mask and only showed a pair of eyes, but the fierceness in the eyes was not fake. Presumably, if Su Lijin was not obedient, she would be murdered and robbed by the man in black and die.

Su Lijin knew that she was no match for the person in front of her, so she could only outwit this time.

Looking down, she glanced at her waist, and then asked suspiciously: "Things? What do you want from Ben Gong? Guo Shangshu has been friends with Ben Gong's father for many years, and Ben Gong just sent some food to the prison , but it makes you confused?"

The man in black moved the knife in his hand, but after a moment of pain, Su Lijin felt blood running down his neck.

Su Lijin said coldly: "I don't have anything on me, if you don't believe me, you can check it yourself."

After a pause, the man in black cut off the sachet on Su Lijin's body with a knife, but found that nothing fell.

"You dare to stop me today, and the power behind you is not bad, but if you really do something against Queen Liang, I'm afraid you will not have a good end, right?"

She looked at the man in black in front of her with a cold face, and just as she finished speaking, she took advantage of the man in front of her thinking and was unprepared, and yelled directly.

"Come on! There are assassins!!"

The man in black trembled in shock. Presumably, he was afraid of what Su Lijin said just now, so he gave a vicious look, and then flew away directly.

It wasn't until the figure of the person in front of him was hidden in the darkness that Su Lijin breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that it was the empress who rushed to forgive the crime, the soldiers who came in a hurry, Su Lijin waved her hand slightly, informed the supervisor of the situation and asked him to take care of Guo Tang, and then went back to the bedroom alone.

Inside Kunning Palace.

Su Lijin closed the door and took out the jade buckle from the sole of her shoe.

After hearing Guo Tang's unreasonable concern, Su Lijin became a little wary.

I didn't expect the man in the dark to be so impatient. He just went out and was threatened by the man in black.

Fortunately, before going out, she put the jade buckle on the sole of her shoe, just in case.

Thinking of this, Su Lijin had already placed the jade buckle in the dark compartment of the bedroom, and arranged everything properly.

She unconsciously recalled the scene when she saw Guo Tang today. In her previous life, Guo Tang died tragically in prison and was framed just like the Su family.

Su Lijin clenched her fist deeply and lived a new life. She must not make the same mistakes again.

"Miss!"

The servant's voice sounded from outside the door, bringing Su Lijin's drifting thoughts back.

She calmed down before she spoke, "What's the matter?"

"Congratulations, empress, today the emperor turned over the empress's brand name, and the servants are here to help empress to groom."

After the servant opened the door, he knelt down in front of Su Lijin, with a very respectful tone.

Xiao Shengyong?
A strange look flashed across his eyes, and Su Lijin unconsciously thought of the night before returning to Kunning Palace.

"it is good."

What should come is always coming.

Not long after taking a bath and changing clothes, the emperor's holy car arrived at the gate of Kunning Palace.

Su Lijin, who was dressed in red, stood at the door. The moment she met Xiao Shengying's eyes, she pursed her lips and smiled slightly, making her look very gentle and generous.

"Chen and concubine meet the emperor."

She bent down to salute, but she was interrupted first.

Warm palms wrapped her slightly cool hands, and a magnetic voice came from above her head.

"Jin'er, there is no need to be too polite."

The man's eyes fell on Su Lijin's face, he was focused and gentle, and then he led Su Lijin into the bedroom.

"Your Majesty, this is freshly brewed tea, try it and see if it suits your taste."

The man just nodded lightly, and then seemed to ask unintentionally.

"Jin'er went to the prison today?"

His seemingly plain words made Su Lijin's body pause.

Although he quickly returned to his usual appearance, Xiao Shengyun still took notice.

He didn't expose it, and there was a faint smile in his eyes.

"Yes, today I heard about the corruption of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and I was a little shocked, and my father has always had a good personal relationship with Guo Shangshu. Knowing that he has been locked in the prison, the concubine decided to go and have a look."

Speaking of this, Su Lijin said very sadly: "Seeing Guo Shangshu's appearance today, I still feel that there is something wrong with this corruption."

"Guo Shangshu is so loved by the common people, it is only a matter of time to go to a higher position, not to mention ranking among the three princes. Isn't it just a matter of time to get a high position through corruption and bribery, isn't it shooting yourself in the foot?"

Xiao Shengyun didn't speak, but he also understood Su Lijin's hint.

She wanted to make herself aware of Guo Tang's corruption, and felt that there was something hidden in it, for the sake of the country and herself, but the harem does not interfere with the government. If such a bold statement is heard by the speaker, she will definitely be involved in it.

It's not that I don't know what happened back then, it's just that there are many things, and it doesn't mean that sitting in the highest position can make decisions about everything.

Sometimes, the emperor is involuntary.

Frowning slightly hesitantly, Xiao Shengyun didn't speak, as if he was thinking about the corruption Su Lijin mentioned.

Even if he didn't raise his eyes, he still felt Su Lijin's expectant eyes.

The scorching gaze fell on him, so hard to ignore.

In the end, he still nodded slightly and said with a slight smile: "Since Jin'er has already said that, I also think it makes sense. The corruption case is indeed full of doubts and I need someone to retrial."

Xiao Shengyun's words made Su Lijin happy.

If the corruption case can really be vindicated, it means that Guo Tang still has a chance to leave the prison in a fair manner.

And at this time, inside Yikun palace.

The sound of the teacup falling to the ground and breaking came one after another. Wei Shu still felt puzzled looking at the mess she had caused.

She raised her hand and slapped the servant who just came to deliver the news.

The servant fell to the ground, and the palm was pierced into the flesh by shards, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

"Young lady, calm down!"

The rest of the servants were kneeling on the ground, even their voices trembled slightly.

"Calm your anger? Your majesty has been busy with government affairs for the past few days. Now that he has some time, he actually flipped that bitch's sign. Calm your anger, how can you let me calm your anger!"

"Your Majesty, if we are angry now, we will make that one happy. Why don't you think about how to make the Emperor notice your Majesty."

The servant kneeling at his feet bit the bullet and offered comfort.

This also calmed Wei Shu's originally agitated mood.

After she calmed down for a while, she seemed to have thought of something, and touched her abdomen vaguely, with a stern look in her eyes.

"Go, release the news, and send someone to tell the emperor, saying that I have a stomachache and are very scared, and I want the emperor to come and have a look."

The servant immediately understood Wei Shu's meaning, got up directly, and left Yikun Palace in a hurry.

"Su Lijin, even if the emperor flips your sign, I will still not let you get what you want. The relationship between us is just the beginning!"
