Silly Girl Allure

Chapter 24

The emperor glanced at Yongyue coldly, and the anger in his eyes surged aggressively, Yongyue trembled slightly in fright, then lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.

Only then did Bu Jingyu clear his throat and continued: "Father, my son was shocked when he saw such a scene, and the emperor's sister-in-law looked really pitiful at that time, her eyes were full of panic, as if It's like being greatly stimulated, although it's beating the queen, but the movements are chaotic and can't hurt people."

Yongyue was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he was talking with his neck stuck, when he thought of the emperor's cold gaze, he shrank his shoulders and knelt there resentfully.

Bu Jingyu's eyes shifted, he looked at the maids present, and slowed down his speech, "Father, as far as I know, in this harem, sometimes the maids will be punished if they do something wrong. Punishment, and this needle punishment is one of them. Therefore, this incident, I thought, maybe... such a thing happened to be encountered by the emperor's wife? She just recovered from a serious illness, and her physical condition is still It’s too stable, it’s unknown if you get sick all of a sudden.”

After he finished speaking, he sighed lightly, with a bit of regret and pain. He didn't say anything more, but it was worse than what he said. The maids couldn't help but bow their heads. For a while, The atmosphere in the house became a little depressing.

The wind outside the window blows in gently, and the floor-to-ceiling veil flutters quietly, like a cloud sleeve dancing alone under the moonlight, adding a bit of loneliness.

The emperor's heart was also a bit heavy. Although he was usually busy with state affairs and seldom asked about the affairs of the harem, it didn't mean that he hadn't heard anything about it. He just wanted to believe that the empress, as the master of the harem, should behave properly.

Qiao Yunxi keenly sensed some changes in the atmosphere. She was still admiring Bu Jingyu's flexibility, but she didn't expect that the atmosphere in the hall had changed a little.

Especially Bu Jinghan beside her, the aura around her was like a thousand years of ice, and the light in a pair of eyes flickered like cold stars in the sky and polar regions.

Yongyue knelt there, her face changed slightly, she did not expect that today's matter would develop to such an extent, it was a trivial matter, she thought that she could take Princess Chu down and vent her anger, it would be best to kill her, Why did things suddenly change direction after killing her?

She knelt and climbed two steps forward, kowtowed again and said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty is clearly aware of this! This matter is definitely not what the Ninth Prince said. The empress is lenient, and she treats slaves and maidservants more kindly. How could such cruelty happen? The matter? The injury on the old slave is really... really..."

She turned her head to look at Qiao Yunxi, but Qiao Yunxi was shrinking into the arms of the King of Chu at the moment, with a look of fear on her face, seeing her gaze, she shrank into the arms of the King of Chu again, so delicate and weak really made her angry I almost want to vomit blood!

Bu Jinghan's arms tightened again, through the thin clothes, Qiao Yunxi could even feel his muscles as tight as iron, and his heart beating like a drum, she twisted his waist with her fingers, acting doesn't have to be like this Let's... Do you want to eat my mother's tofu?

Bu Jinghan laughed inwardly, but his face was still cold. He really looked like a husband who protected his injured wife. You bumped in by yourself. What has it to do with me? "Okay!" The emperor waved his hand impatiently , "I am here today to investigate the Queen's poisoning. As for the rest, the Queen is the lord of the six palaces, so she should share my worries. When she wakes up and recovers, she will definitely give me an explanation."

Yongyue was startled, and his back felt a little chilly, but he didn't dare to say any more, so he could only say yes humbly.

"Imperial Physician He." The emperor looked at Imperial Physician He in a blink of an eye, "You just said that the Queen will wake up soon?"

"Back to the emperor, that's true." Imperial Physician He saluted.

"The poison was quenched on the needle and stabbed the queen, so that's why the queen was poisoned?" The emperor continued to ask.

"Yes."

"Very good." The emperor looked around, his eyes as cold as a knife's edge, "In this case, I will search all the people in this palace to see who has the mandala poison left on them, and whoever has the intention of poisoning the queen." Suspect!"

As soon as the emperor gave an order, the imperial guards standing under the porch rushed in one file at a time, the iron armor on their bodies slammed, and the cold iron radiated a cold light, pressing forward layer by layer.

The people in the palace couldn't help holding their breath, wishing that others would ignore their own existence, especially those who worked in the queen's palace, thinking of the queen's tricks in the past, couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, secretly praying to let themselves hide Get through this indiscriminate disaster.

"Father!" Bu Jingyu took a step forward, with a smile on his face as bright as the sun, "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome. My son has a way to find out who poisoned you!"

"Oh?" The emperor's expression relaxed slightly, but his eyes were still gloomy, "What can you do? Why didn't you mention it just now?"

Qiao Yunxi peeked at Bu Jingyu, then lowered her eyes to look at Bu Jinghan's fingers in his sleeves -- his fingers were clenched, and the knuckles were slightly white due to the force.

Suddenly, Qiao Yunxi's heart felt warm and sour. It seemed that the two brothers had a deep relationship. It was really rare to have such a deep brotherhood in the palace.

Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has been extremely tragic. Those ordinary people only envy those princes and princesses who were born with a golden spoon in their mouths and enjoy the supreme glory at birth, but they don't know that the blood and tears behind it and the bones of the body are dreaming back in the middle of the night. At that time, the wind was blowing, and a heart was grinding back and forth in loneliness and blood, until it became numb and ruthless.

She couldn't help it, stretched out her finger, and gently hooked his hand.

Her fingers are white and slender, weak and boneless, and her nails are as smooth as pearl shells. On his big palm, the fingers are slender, and there are slight thin spots between them, which are caused by years of using weapons. the shortest distance between.

Bu Jinghan's heart trembled, he lowered his head, wanting to see her expression, his cheeks brushed her hair, it was slightly itchy, and the tip of his nose was her refreshing hair fragrance.

Everything, but only for a moment.

As soon as Bu Jinghan moved, Qiao Yunxi withdrew his mind, secretly cursing himself for going crazy, why did he do such a thing for no reason?

She withdrew her fingers abruptly, and muttered to herself, it must have been possessed by the idiot Yunxi just now, and it has nothing to do with her, um...it must be like this.

No one noticed the small movements here, and Bu Jingyu over there smiled embarrassedly and said: "Father, my son was frightened just now, and I didn't know at first that the queen was poisoned by mandala. Hearing the mention of Imperial Physician He, Erchen suddenly remembered that he had heard from his master before that Datura is a specialty of West India, and it has a unique fragrance. After being made into poison, the fragrance still lingers, but people can’t smell it. However, the garden The little bees in it can still smell it."

"You mean..." The cloud in the emperor's eyes slowly receded, and a few traces of tenderness flashed across.

"My son thought that he could catch some bees, and whoever has mandala fragrance on his body will attract the bees, so he is the relevant person."

The emperor nodded and said: "Come here, do as the Ninth Prince said."

"Yes." The guard at the door immediately took the order and left.

"Physician He, go in and have a look. Why hasn't the queen woke up yet? Didn't you say you'll wake up soon?"

"Yes."

Qiao Yunxi looked at layers of curtains fluttering gently in the hall, with a slight sarcasm in his eyes, Empress, I am afraid you have already woken up, but because the development of the situation is not under your control at all, that's why you made this decision , procrastinating not to wake up?

Her lips curled up slightly, and she felt two eyes staring at her. She searched for her eyes and met Bu Jingyu's clear eyes, but there was a hidden smile in those eyes .

Ok?
Qiao Yunxi's brain cells became active rapidly, there is a problem... This kid is weird, suddenly proposed such a method, is there something bad hidden?
Time is not long, footsteps are heard outside, the eyes of the court ladies and eunuchs in the palace are lowered, and they can't help but look around with the corner of their eyes curiously, Qiao Yunxi, Bu Jinghan and Bu Jingyu are slightly jumping in their hearts , Waiting for a good show.

Following the emperor's order, dozens of bees flew out with a "buzzing" sound. The sound that he would not pay attention to at ordinary times was like the sound of a drum urging his life, making people's hearts tremble.

Yongyue leaned on the ground, not daring to move. Ever since Bu Jingyu proposed this method, her heart began to panic, her hands were tightly retracted into her sleeves, sweat was slightly oozing from her forehead, and there was a "pop" It dripped onto the bluestone board with a sound and disappeared without a trace.

But at this moment, the sound of the bees flying together made her feel as if she was stung by a bee. If it wasn't for the presence of the emperor, who prevented her from moving casually because of the rules, she would have jumped up and ran out long ago.

"Aiya! Aiya!" Qiao Yunxi cried out suddenly, broke free from Bu Jinghan's embrace, pointed at the bees with big eyes blinking and said: "There are so many little bees—is it because the temple is very fragrant, so they are attracted? coming?"

As she spoke, she secretly moved her limbs. This step frightened her body so much that she froze. Bu frightened the black lines all over her head. Seeing her pretending to be stupid again, she was angry and funny, and her palms were empty. , just a trace of the soft and sweet fragrance lingers on the fingertips, as if... the heart is also empty.

Everyone's already tense hearts were immediately raised by her call, almost jumped out of their mouths, and then they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard her words again.

"Oops! Oops!" The crowd was like a roller coaster, just as they stabilized, Bu Jingyu who was on the side yelled again.

"Yongyue! What's going on with you?" Bu Jingyu continued to shout, his voice was full of astonishment, everyone followed suit, and dozens of gazes pierced her like sharp arrows.

"The old slave doesn't know! The old slave doesn't know!" Yong Yue yelled, his voice was full of panic, and he waved his hands indiscriminately, "Go away! Don't look for me! Go away!"

Looking at Yongyue's panicked look, Qiao Yunxi instantly understood what Bu Jingyu's wicked smile meant when she looked at her earlier.

She rolled her eyes, and simply called out: "Oh! Oh! How did the bee fly to the inner hall?" Her voice raised a bit, "Would the bee not sting the empress?"

Bu Jingyu secretly admired the intelligence of the emperor's wife, and also jumped up and shouted inside: "Oops! The empress has been poisoned by the mandala, the bees must have smelled her too!"

As soon as his words fell, there was an exclamation from inside: "Ah!"

Immediately, he heard the voice of Imperial Physician He: "Empress Empress, you..."

"Go away! Come on! Come on! Hurry up and blast these damn bees out of this palace!" The queen's voice changed a little, it was sharp and thin.
