After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 54
Just when Jiang Ning was in a daze, the maid named Meng Yin walked towards Jiang Ning slowly stepping on the mess all over the ground.

She walked slowly, with a dignified demeanor, the soles of her shoes lightly stepped on the porcelain shards all over the floor, but her face was filled with unspeakable peace and security.

"Your Majesty, I will help you get up and go to the back room first." Meng Yin slowly helped Jiang Ning to get up and walked in.

Along the way, Jiang Ning saw the mess all over the ground, and felt that his heart seemed to be broken into pieces along with these gold and silver treasures.

Xu Shi saw her uneasiness, and Mengyin smiled softly, "Your Majesty, don't worry about it, it's all outside of your body."

Jiang Ning felt her heart stop for a moment. She watched herself and Meng Yin supporting each other's wrists. Her plain clothes were in stark contrast to Meng Yin's exquisitely embroidered clothes.

For a moment, Jiang Ning gritted his teeth, lamenting the injustice of the world.

"Your Majesty, let's lie down first." Meng Yin helped Jiang Ning to lie down on a bed.

Jiang Ning was lying on the bed, his thoughts were chaotic.

The scene in the secret room is still lingering in her mind.

So, what exactly was the stuff in that room for?
Jiang Ning inexplicably thought of the long black whip beside Liu Jinfu, the whip marks on the stone pillars in the courtyard, and Liu Jinfu's inadvertent display of extraordinary force.

She vaguely remembered that when she saw Liu Jinfu for the first time, Zhe Liu told her that the imperial concubine was the queen of the general.

All of these points to the answer that is ready to come out.

Such a result made Jiang Ning a little unwilling to face it. She buried her face in the quilt as if she was avoiding herself, and forced her thoughts to turn to the vegetables and chickens in her yard.

"What do you think?"

She looked up in astonishment, only to see Liu Jinfu sitting on the edge of the bed looking at her.

Seeing Jiang Ning's face, Liu Jinfu was a little stunned, and then she smiled helplessly.

"If you really like those gold and silver porcelain, I will give you all of them. Why do you have to make a bitter face about it?"

Jiang Ning didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only follow her with a wry smile twice.

"Oh, I remember, you reacted so badly because you felt sorry for the craftsman." Liu Jinfu blinked, with a rare girlish playfulness on his face, "Then I will vent my anger for you."

Seeing that she was not interested, Liu Jinfu stopped talking, and she lowered her voice.

"Let Bengong come and show you your waist injury." She said, slowly caressing Jiang Ning's waist injury with both hands, and pressing down gently.

"Hiss—" The sudden dull pain made Jiang Ning gasp uncontrollably.

"In the morning, I broke my waist while repairing the emperor's roof, and in the evening, I offended the queen to protect the palace." Her palm pressed gently on Jiang Ning's waist, which really relieved the soreness strangely.

"Jiang Qingyuan can teach such a daughter, which makes me a little impressed."

However, at this moment, Jiang Ning was not in the mood to listen to Liu Jinfu's broken thoughts. She raised her eyes, and she happened to be able to see the green bamboo in the yard from her angle.

It's getting late and the temperature is dropping.The warm orange sunset fell unscrupulously on the tip of the bamboo leaves, leaving dots of light on the tip of the leaves.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the bamboo pole was overwhelmed, hiding in the shadows, and even the little bit of golden light disappeared.

In just that moment, the green bamboo stood upright again, and regained the arrogance it had not long ago.

In a daze, Jiang Ning felt as if he understood why the courtyard of Shuanghua Palace was full of bamboos.

"Do you know why the Japanese Palace asked the emperor to punish you severely because of a peacock?"

Such a sentence seems to have instantly attracted Jiang Ning's attention.

She straightened her waist, "Why?"

Liu Jinfu didn't respond, and took advantage of Jiang Ning's flashy moment to suddenly increase the strength in his hands.

Jiang Ning only heard the crisp sound of bones coming from his waist.

"Okay." Liu Jinfu clapped his hands, "Your back injury should be fine."

Jiang Ning supported her waist and barely moved, but found that the pain in her waist had long since disappeared. However, her attention was completely on another matter.

"Why?"

Liu Jinfu squinted his eyes and smiled, his expression was very like a cunning fox, "It was the emperor who asked me to do this."

On the other side, Mu Jingzhao helped Shen Qingrong to sit on the soft stool in the hall, and he let go, and was about to leave.

Helpless, Shen Qingrong leaned softly against his chest again and sobbed softly.

Her eyes were red, and her face was full of pity and helplessness.

Mu Jingzhao sighed helplessly, and lightly embraced Shen Qingrong's arm, pulling her into his arms.

"You know that it's the imperial concubine's heart disease, why bother to step on her sore spot like this?"

As soon as he said these words, Shen Qingrong's sobs became even worse, "The emperor knows that Ling Yue and my concubine grew up together and love each other as sisters. Even if Ling Yue is indeed at fault, she should not be humiliated. Concubine Chen As Ling Yue's master, she absolutely cannot be wronged like this."

Her words were cut to pieces by the intermittent sobs.

"Such a good girl has become what she is now, how does Ling Yue get married?"

Mu Jingzhao fell into a brief silence.

The only sound left in the room was Shen Qingrong's intermittent sobbing, her injured hand was hanging limply on her leg, and a faint redness could be seen on the several layers of gauze wrapped around it.

"What's more." Shen Qingrong gritted her teeth, "Your Majesty, you have also seen the things in the secret room, and my concubine is worried."

As she said so, she carefully raised her eyes to observe Mu Jingzhao's face from time to time.

Sure enough, the expected haze appeared on the other party's face.

"It's the concubine who made a slip of the tongue."

Mu Jingzhao opened his mouth, and finally, a touch of pity and pity appeared in his eyes.

"She has become like this now, why do I have to force her so hard—"

"The concubine is also thinking about the country and the country." Shen Qingrong raised her gauze-covered hand, and slowly pressed it towards the back of Mu Jingzhao's hand. She adjusted her posture, and gently touched Mu Jingzhao's hand with a small area wrapped in gauze. Jing Zhao rubbed the back of his hand.

Like a compromise, like a reminder.

"This tiger wolf with its claws and teeth pulled out is also a tiger wolf."

Mu Jingzhao didn't say any more, he lowered his eyes, and his eyes fixed on Shen Qingrong's gauze-wrapped hands.

That gaze seemed to pass through layers of gauze and land on the bloody wound.

He let go of Shen Qingrong's arm and slowly got up.

"I suddenly thought of something important to deal with, so I will leave first, so you can take care of yourself."

He had only taken two steps before he stopped as if thinking of something.

"As for the investigation, let's stop for now."

Shen Qingrong didn't say much anymore, just nodded and watched Mu Jingzhao leave.

Until Mu Jingzhao's figure completely disappeared in the palace, Shen Qingrong sat up straight in an instant, and the despondency on his face was instantly wiped away, leaving only a happy smile.
