Chapter 47 You finally got your head around it!

This time, being threatened by Mu Jingzhao again, Jiang Ning was obviously much calmer than before.

In fact, she knew very well in her heart that it was impossible for Mu Jingzhao to know her true identity.

If he knew, then he would definitely not be so relieved to tell himself so many things.

So she looked calm, "I can't remember." She raised her head slightly, as if recalling some unbearable past. What stimulus do you not want to think of? I don't know very well."

"but you--"

Just after Mu Jingzhao said two words, Lin Zheng's voice came from outside the door, "Your Majesty, the sedan chair is ready."

"Can you get up?" Mu Jingzhao looked at her waist with worry.

Jiang Ning thought in confusion.

If I tell him that I can go, then it is tantamount to admitting in disguise that I am pretending to be sick, but if I say that I can't go, then if Mu Jingzhao hugs me in public, it will be so embarrassing, and it will be me. so……

Mu Jingzhao didn't give her so much time to hesitate, he stepped forward in two steps, and hugged her horizontally.

Jiang Ning's body flew into the air in an instant, and she tilted her body, almost falling to the ground. In desperation, she could only wrap her arms around Mu Jingzhao's neck to try to stabilize herself.

"I didn't see it, you still have times when you feel embarrassed."

Jiang Ning raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw the beautiful curve of Mu Jingzhao's mouth slightly raised.

She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, she hurriedly looked away, and absent-mindedly cursed this person for being so self-indulgent that it made people stunned.

Mu Jingzhao took Jiang Ning to the door and put it on the prepared sedan chair, and turned his head to Lin Zheng as if he was worried, put his hand on Lin Zheng's arm, and whispered to Lin Zheng, "Take care Concubine Ning."

Just as the last tone fell, Lin Zheng felt Mu Jingzhao's strength on his shoulder suddenly tightened.

He looked up puzzled, and was still facing Mu Jingzhao's normal smile.

Just like that, Jiang Ning was sent back to the Leng Palace by the sedan chair. Along the way, she witnessed the chaotic and noisy scenes in the palaces and courtyards, and knew in her heart that the queen was investigating the suicide case of Fuling.

Although he was extremely curious, Jiang Ning still didn't dare to ask to go down to watch the fun, after all, this team was all from Mu Jingzhao.

"Your Majesty, you're back!" Just now when he reached the door of the Leng Palace, Zhe Liu leaned forward with a smile all over his face.

However, what she met was not Jiang Ning, but Lin Zheng.

"Commander Lin, my mother didn't cause any trouble, did she?"

Lin Zheng walked in front of her, stretched out his hand hesitantly, for a long while, but didn't know where to land it.

Before Lin Zheng could respond, Jiang Ning lost face.

After all, all the people present here are single men around her age.

In case she develops a forbidden love with one of them, when she leaves the palace, she will have money, freedom and love, and she will be a winner in life!

"Who are you targeting, you dead girl? Ah? What do you mean this palace caused trouble? Is this palace embarrassing you?"

However, Zhe Liu didn't pay attention to Jiang Ning's insults, her eyes bypassed Jiang Ning, and fell on the group of eunuchs behind her who were moving the bookshelves.

"Mother, empress, you stole the emperor's imperial study?"

This time Jiang Ning didn't even have the strength to curse people, she held her forehead, hoping that these young men would forget how they looked.

"The emperor's study room was damaged, and the books were difficult to store, so he wanted to temporarily put them in the cold palace." Lin Zheng defended her softly.

Zhe Liu stared at the bookshelf for two seconds, she seemed to chew on Lin Zheng's words for a while, and then gave Jiang Ning an appreciative smile.

That smile is very much like that of mother Sang watching her daughter finally enlightened, changing her tough attitude of swearing to the death and catering to customers actively.

The message Jiang Ning received from that smile was: Okay, ma'am, you can make a lot of money in a silent voice. Now that you've settled the emperor, won't we be prosperous?

"Come, come, please, please follow me!" Zhe Liu smiled happily and led the eunuchs who were moving the bookshelves towards the inside, completely forgetting that there was a master who couldn't take care of himself here.

Jiang Ning stared at Zhe Liu, waiting for Qiu Hou to settle the score, but also secretly rejoicing that she didn't contribute her bedroom.

"Let me help you back to the palace." Jiang Ning came back to his senses, only to see Lin Zheng's wrist lying in front of him.

Jiang Ning hesitated for a moment, and finally put his hand on Lin Zheng's wrist, and got off the sedan chair with his support.

"Actually, I don't usually do this." She defended herself in a low voice, praying in her heart that her hidden marriage would not sneak away because of this.

However, her voice was too low, and Lin Zheng was the only one who really heard it.

The difference in height between the two was so huge, Lin Zheng bent over, lost his upright and proud appearance in the past, turned one step into three, and followed Jiang Ning's steps carefully.

What Jiang Ning didn't know was that in this highly hierarchical imperial palace, the position of the commander of the imperial guards was second only to the existence of the emperor and concubines, and no one dared to order them.

Especially for a person like Lin Zheng, who has a prominent family background and is a trusted confidant of the emperor, even the empress Shen Qingrong would not dare to order him around like this.

"Your Majesty ventured into the imperial study today to look up the scrolls?" Lin Zheng supported Jiang Ning and walked slowly towards the house, "Even if your Majesty wants to investigate, she should put her body before this matter."

Jiang Ning didn't defend himself, but just sighed slightly.

"I have no other choice."

Lin Zheng's steps stopped, which made Jiang Ning, who was limping forward, stagger suddenly and almost fell down.

Lin Zheng's hand movements were suddenly withdrawn, and Jiang Ning's entire body fell on his wrist impartially, and their bodies were tightly attached to each other.

Jiang Ning struggled to get up, "I'm sorry." She raised her head and gave Lin Zheng a slightly apologetic smile, but was surprised to find that Lin Zheng's cheeks and neck were showing an astonishing crimson.

He froze in place, as if he hadn't recovered from what happened not long ago.

"Cough cough." Lin Zheng coughed twice, his expression returned to normal, "It's my negligence for not informing the empress in advance."

Before Jiang Ning could continue to open his mouth, Lin Zheng took out a bone whistle from his bosom and stuffed it into Jiang Ning's hand.

"If the empress needs it, you can blow this whistle. As long as the minister hears it, he will appear immediately." Sensing that his hand was tightly attached to Jiang Ning's, Lin Zheng withdrew his hand like an electric shock, "I wish the empress a helping hand." .”

Jiang Ning couldn't figure out if there was any conspiracy in it, but Lin Zheng's expression was too sincere, so she asked, "Why?"

Lin Zheng's expression was gloomy, "I failed to protect my mother's family back then, it was my dereliction of duty."

"Here I come—" Just as Jiang Ning was about to continue speaking, Mu Jingzhao's angry shout came from the door of Lenggong.
