On the evening of the third day after the poisoned alcohol incident, the young eunuch from Cihua Palace came to Tingfangzhai to deliver a message that the Empress Dowager invited her to accompany her for dinner.

Zhuo Ye secretly sighed in his heart, it really came...

Cihua Palace.

The Empress Dowager and Zhuo Ye briefly exchanged a few words of politeness, and then ordered the meal to be passed on.

Zhuo Ye remained calm and observed secretly, the queen mother was obviously absent-minded when eating.

Soon the Queen Mother finished eating, and Zhuo Ye hurriedly put down her chopsticks. When she came to Cihua Palace to eat, she didn't expect to be full.

After the maid served the tea, the Empress Dowager gave a wink, and the people who waited on her left and right retreated knowingly.

Zhuo Ye was taken aback when she saw this, and then raised her eyebrows slightly, she thought that the Queen Mother was going to secretly ask something from her mouth, now that she is acting like this, do you want to have some direct topic?

Probably not...

Even if they know each other well, those dark things can't be brought out on the bright side!

Regardless of these, the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it!Zhuo Ye could tell that the Empress Dowager was still very afraid of her identity, even if the Empress Dowager really opened up and told her some things she shouldn't listen to, I believe she would not dare to silence her.

The two of them chatted one after another, the queen mother didn't talk about the topic, Zhuo Ye also followed suit, and responded appropriately.

"I heard... on the day of the palace banquet, you were the first to find out that there was something wrong with the glass of wine that Yulin Lang Jing Jin had served?" The queen mother suddenly asked.

Here comes the topic!Zhuo Ye cheered up, nodded and said: "The words of the queen mother were discovered by the women first."

"Oh?" The Empress Dowager asked calmly, "How did you find out?"

"It's just a feeling." Zhuo Ye replied calmly: "At that time, my intuition told me that there was something wrong with the glass of wine in Yu Linlang's hand."

"Induction? Did you sense that the glass of wine was poisonous?"

"Yes, Empress Dowager." Zhuo Ye blushed and said out of breath.

If this word comes from other people, it is a joke, no one will believe it, but from Zhuo Ye's mouth, most people will not doubt, who made her have a "fake fairy" aura...

In fact, her identity itself is a joke...

A lot of things in the world are like this, if the false is true, then it will be true, and if the true is false, then the false will be true...

Zhuo Ye observed the Empress Dowager's expression, it was obvious that the Empress Dowager believed her nonsense lies!

"Linge's child, although he has been through a lot of troubles and disasters, he is still considered lucky." The queen mother sighed faintly: "This time, it is thanks to you..."

"Ministers don't dare to take credit." Zhuo Ye smiled and said, "King Jin is a person favored by heaven."

"Blessed by God? Is that so?" The Queen Mother's expression changed slightly when she heard the words, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.

However, Zhuo Ye also caught the imperceptible subtle changes of the Queen Mother just now, and was shocked in his heart, that's terrible!She said the wrong thing! The words "Blessed by God" may have caused a misunderstanding for the Queen Mother. In the hearts of people in this feudal time and space, the person most favored by God should be the True Dragon Emperor!

"Of course, God will treat every kind and kind person generously..." Zhuo Ye hurriedly made up for his mistake.

"Oh, that's it..." The Queen Mother's facial muscles relaxed after hearing this.But immediately, his expression became a little gloomy again.

Is it because she is not kind enough, and she is too harsh?So God doesn't want to see her. Although she is the most powerful and noble woman in the country, her late husband never loved her, and the only woman who once regarded her as a friend has also left. Her endless resentment and jealousy...

Now, even her two biological sons have turned against her...

"Empress?" Zhuo Ye saw that the Empress Dowager's expression was getting more and more sad, and she was silent for a long time, so she couldn't help calling softly.

The queen mother came back to her senses, and sighed at Zhuoye: "The child of Linge, although not my own, grew up by my side, and it is no different from my own. I have been worried about him a few years ago. The poison on his body has been cured now, and someone wants to harm him again, the Ai family really can't stop worrying about him, his mother and concubine are watching from the sky, I'm afraid they can't rest assured..."

"You don't have to worry, Queen Mother. I said before that King Jin is a blessed man. He will be happy and have a long and safe life in the future." Zhuo Ye knew that what the Queen Mother said was a temptation, but she was just waiting for her temptation. ...

"Is that so? Are you sure? It's not in the heart of Kuanai's family, is it?" When the Queen Mother asked this question, she stared closely at Zhuo Ye's eyes.

"Yes, Empress Dowager, I swear by my identity, I am sure!" Zhuo Ye met the Empress Dowager's eyes, and said very seriously, neither humble nor overbearing.

The queen mother was silent for a moment, and then breathed out quietly: "With your words, the Ai family can feel relieved." After a pause, she said to Zhuoye: "It's getting late, you go back and rest..."

"Yes, the empress dowager also rested earlier, and the daughter of the people will leave." Zhuo Ye got up, walked to the door, suddenly turned around, and called out hesitantly: "The empress dowager..."

"Huh?" The queen mother raised her eyes: "Do you have anything else to say to Ai's family?"

"Queen Mother, in fact, it will be very tiring to stick to something that is impossible to achieve, and it will make yourself more extreme. Sometimes, let go, and you can live more easily and feel the happiness you already have. Then On that day, Zhuo Ye also said that you are also a blessed person..."

The topic just now involved the poisoning of Feng Linge. The Queen Mother may have dismissed the servants just out of caution. However, she was also giving Zhuo Ye the opportunity to make such bold remarks. Although it is not too straightforward, it is still The meaning is very clear, and it is not easy for other people to hear.

Zhuo Ye believed that the queen mother would understand, and she didn't want to see the queen mother's reaction after hearing this, so she quickly walked out of the room.

After hearing Zhuo Ye's words, the Empress Dowager's complexion really changed. At first she had a gloomy look of anger, but she quickly controlled her emotions and did not attack.

After Zhuo Ye's figure disappeared, the queen mother had already calmed down, and then her expression became a little dazed...

Is it easy to live by letting go?

The Queen Mother was in a daze for a while, and finally a faint wry smile appeared on the corner of her lips. Could she not let go of that matter?Her two good sons are already trying to suppress and deprive her of her power...

Now, she is just an old woman trapped in the deep palace waiting to die...

However, the unwillingness of this life has been deeply planted in her heart, how can she let go...

Zhuo Ye came out of the Empress Dowager's dormitory, followed the little eunuch who led the way, not far away, and saw a figure flashing past not far away, as if, looking back at her!

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and Zhuo Ye could only see a blurry purple figure, but it gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity...

Zhuo Ye frowned suspiciously, it should be a woman, but who is it?She doesn't know many people in the palace...

All the way back to Tingfangzhai, Zhuo Ye still couldn't figure out why, so he temporarily put that figure behind him.

Waking up in the morning, Zhuo Ye went for a walk in the plum garden, and when she reached the gate of the garden, she suddenly stopped in her tracks. She remembered why the figure from last night seemed familiar to her!

The posture that floated away in a flash was exactly the same as the posture of the court lady who pretended to bump into her and slipped a note to her that day!

Zhuo Ye was startled, how could she forget this person?Who is this person?Who instructed her to send the note to herself?What is the purpose of this?Will it be a conspiracy?If the Queen Mother knew about the note, her lie today would be exposed...

Zhuo Ye didn't care about taking a walk anymore, and hurried back to Ting Fang Zhai, dismissed several eunuchs and maids, and called Qiao Ling into the room alone.

Qiaoling knew that Zhuo Ye had something to say to her, so she didn't ask any more questions, just waiting for Zhuo Ye to speak.

"Qiao Ling, can the people in this palace find a way to investigate?" Zhuo Ye asked solemnly.

When Qiaoling heard this, she was taken aback: "Who does the girl want to check?"

"I don't know who she is, she should be a very young girl, wearing purple clothes, with strong martial arts." Zhuo Ye paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and said: "You can check with the Queen Mother first."

That woman knew that someone was going to kill Feng Linge, and she appeared near the Cihua Palace last night. No matter who she is or who is behind it, it is very likely that she is placed next to the Empress Dowager.

"Purple clothes?" Qiaoling said while thinking, "If that person wears the dress of a court lady, and knows martial arts... She should be a guard maid in the inner palace, and ordinary court ladies don't know how to wear it." The purple dress..."

"Oh? A maid of honor?" Zhuo Ye raised his eyebrows, but the scope narrowed down.

Qiaoling continued: "If this is the maid of the imperial guard next to the empress dowager, then there is no need to send someone to investigate. As far as I know, there are two maids of the imperial guard beside the empress dowager, one is in her thirties, and her name is Zili, one is about my age, named Zisu."

"That Zili can be ruled out." Zhuo Ye had heard that person's voice before, he was very young, and his figure also looked like a girl: "That Zisu..."

Zhuo Ye pondered for a moment, then looked for a pair of scissors, went to the table, cut a piece of rice paper, and said to Qiao Ling: "Come here, write a few words for me."

There is no way, her calligraphy is too ugly...

Qiaoling stepped forward suspiciously, studied the ink, dipped the pen into the ink, and asked Zhuo Ye: "Girl, what do you want Qiaoling to write?"

"On this note, write 'come to me'."

"Only write these three characters?" Qiao Ling asked.

"Yes." Zhuo Ye nodded.

Qiaoling wrote it down, put down the pen, dried the note, and handed it to Zhuo Ye.

Zhuo Ye did not reach out to take the note, but said to Qiaoling: "This note, you should find a way to let that Zisu see it, but don't let her find you."
