Chapter 289

Dong Rong was lying on the bed with her clothes on, looking at the birth of the blue curtain after the rain.Hearing this, he sat up suddenly.

She also vaguely guessed the identity of the person behind the scene in her heart before, but she was not sure.But now, after hearing the news brought back by Jia Yi, which finally confirmed her guess, she was still a little surprised.

Concubine Bo, the most powerful woman in the harem besides the empress dowager, is also the biological mother of the young emperor.The people of Daqi, no one knows that the emperor is extremely filial. Although he was adopted as the son of the first emperor and took over the country of Daqi, he still took his biological mother to the palace to support after the death of Prince Sheng'an.

However, Dong Rong still didn't understand that as the emperor's biological mother, Concubine Bo was so beautiful, why would she do such a murderous thing to their husband and wife?

But after thinking about it, she vaguely understood the key point.Although their husband and wife never took that high chair seriously.But Murong Huaide is deeply loved by the Empress Dowager, and he is known as a virtuous person. The most important thing is that in terms of blood, the current emperor does not have a husband with a pure blood.Concubine Bo was afraid that her son's throne would be unstable, so she tried her best to get rid of their husband and wife, so as to prevent future troubles.

Thinking about it now, Concubine Bo probably started to cast a net a long time ago, but unfortunately her net was a little weak, and she didn't get rid of the couple together at the beginning, and now she has another murder with a borrowed knife, using Da Zongzheng to strike again up.

However, Dazong is a member of the royal family, so it is normal for her to be able to contact and order him.But what is strange is how did the Maitreya Sect hook up with Concubine Bo?Moreover, she has won the trust of Concubine Bo, otherwise, how could the Maitreya Sect have the confidence to blatantly collude with the officials of the court and China, and work in collusion with each other?There must be some ulterior secret in it...

Just when Dong Rong couldn't figure it out, in the most luxurious Qingyuan Palace deep in the palace, the mother Guo who was so frightened that she dared not make a sound was serving her master to clean up with her own hands, and finally helped her sit down. On the imperial concubine's couch, the maids serving in the room were dismissed, and then she took out the letter in her arms and offered it with both hands.

"Your Majesty, the Zongzheng Mansion asked someone to bring in a handwritten letter. I'm afraid there is something to report."

Concubine Bo leaned lazily on the gold silk pillow and waved her hand lightly.

Seeing this, Mother Guo checked the secret note on the envelope, then opened it and read it lightly.

Under the slightly dim palace lamp, Concubine Bo's well-maintained face was slightly stern, and her brows were also frowned, "Show it to the Ai family."

Guo Nanny has been serving the master for many years, how could she not guess that the master is a sign of anger, so she quickly reached out to help the master up, and then lightly held the letter paper to her front.

There is absolutely no problem with the letter being checked by Nanny Guo, but Taifei Bo still read it in person to make sure that the secret note is intact, and then she looked down.

After a while, she slapped the letter paper on the small table with a "snap", and finally raised her hand to pick up the glazed bowl containing bird's nest on the brocade stool and smashed it out again.The two young maids on duty hurried in to serve upon hearing the sound. Seeing this, their faces turned pale with fright, and they quickly knelt on the ground without daring to breathe, for fear that the master would be furious and make them a target.

Nanny Guo stared, and waved her hand to signal them to get out quickly, and the two of them went out again like rolling and crawling as if they were pardoned.

Concubine Bo didn't seem to notice the interaction between Nanny Guo and the little maid, and cursed angrily, "Idiot, why did the Ai family pick on this idiot, who can't handle such a trivial matter?"

Concubine Bo's face was ferocious, her hands clenched unconsciously, as if she was pinching Da Zongzheng's neck, and instantly crumpled the letter paper until it was wrinkled.

Afraid that Concubine Bo's sharp nails would hurt her, Mother Guo hurriedly stepped forward to gently shake her hand, put it in her palm, and comforted her in a low voice, "Mother, please calm down, don't hurt yourself, you will be hurt too much." Body."

Xu Shi realized that he had lost his composure, so Concubine Bo tried her best to calm her emotions, trying to calm herself down.She straightened her back, sat upright, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, and when she opened her eyes again, the ferocity on her face had receded, and a gentle look had been put on her face again, but the occasional glare that overflowed from the corners of her eyes and brows was even sharper.

Mother Guo felt sorry for her master and cursed secretly.No wonder the concubine is angry, this Dazong is just an idiot, how can he write the whole story of Dong Rong's framing so straightforwardly?If it falls into the hands of someone with a heart, he will definitely drag the concubine into trouble and be criticized by others, no matter how he doesn't say anything.

"Taifei empress, don't be angry with such a fool. The seal on this envelope is complete, and this old slave is sure that today's matter will not be discovered. There will be absolutely no trouble!"

Nanny Guo confidently signed the ticket, Dou Concubine Bo relaxed her brows slightly, after all, she is an old man who has been by her side for many years, and she knows her heart best and is the most reliable.

She lay comfortably on the imperial concubine's couch again, her gestures were elegant, full of nobility, and her beautiful face was gentle, but her words were extremely vicious, "It seems that this Dong family is absolutely not allowed to stay. I thought it would be good to just get rid of King Zhongshan, and it might be useful to keep her. After all, the title of Grandma God of Wealth on her head is not in vain. But it seems to be impossible now. Now that the wild cat has shown its claws, I can’t think about taming him anymore. Forget it, send him on the road no matter what, just to reconnect with King Zhongshan under the Nine Springs, and save King Zhongshan from being lonely there.”

"The concubine is kind. It is a blessing that the concubine of Zhongshan can be remembered by the concubine in several lifetimes." Mother Guo didn't realize how vicious it is to take someone's life, so she smiled and agreed with her master.

"Well, the Ai family is not at ease to whom this matter will be entrusted to. Let Da Zong make arrangements there, or the nanny will send her on the road in person." Dowager Bo seemed to be deciding on the dishes for dinner, and she made the decision in a few words Dong Rong's life and death.

"Yes, the old slave must have done it neatly. No one can escape the eyes of the old slave, don't worry, the concubine."

Under the blurred palace lanterns, Mother Guo lowered her head halfway, and no one could see her expression clearly, but her wrinkled forehead, white hair neatly coiled behind her head, and her indigo jacket made her look It made her even more terrifying and eerie like a ghost floating out of hell.

Not to mention how Dou Concubine Bo's master and servant conspired, but only said that in the Palace of Compassion and Ning not far away, most of the lights have been turned off at this moment, and the little maids retreated to the outside room to wait, leaving only the cronies of the Empress Dowager in the inner room The eunuch stood respectfully in the corner, and waited for the empress dowager to finish reciting Buddhist scriptures before the old eunuch hurried forward to help her up.

"What's the matter?" The Empress Dowager asked the old eunuch with a frown while counting the beads in her hand.

"Oh, nothing can escape the eyes of the Empress Dowager." The old eunuch pursed his lips, and his words were a bit leaky due to his age, but he didn't waste any time trying to be cute.

"You, as you get older, why are you more glib and tongue-tied than those little monkey cubs? It makes you feel old. The Empress Dowager smiled and complained, but in fact it was rare to have fun with her confidants. sentence.

"Look at what the empress dowager said, no matter how old this old slave is, he is a lucky boy in front of you." The old eunuch's face wrinkled and smiled like a flower.

The empress dowager walked slowly to the bed by the window and sat down. Then the old eunuch murmured in a low voice, "There was a message from Qingyuan Palace that someone outside the palace had sent a letter to Nanny Guo. The dowager read it." After receiving the letter, there was a lot of anger. In addition, today the princess of Zhongshan also sent a message through the Ministry of Internal Affairs, wanting to enter the palace to greet the elderly." The eyes of the Empress Dowager flashed brightly, and she raised her hand slightly.

The old eunuch quickly took out the post in the sleeve, held it in both hands, and presented it to the Empress Dowager respectfully.

But the Empress Dowager opened the post, glanced at it and put it aside, as if she was not surprised at all. After a long silence, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said in a low voice, "The Ai family really underestimated her."

The old eunuch changed his mind, unable to figure out what the master meant, so he said in a low voice, "Empress Dowager, Qingyuan Palace is probably going to do something to the concubine. Now the whereabouts of the prince are unknown, and the concubine's life is in danger. How about bringing the princess into the palace to stay with you for a few days?" The old eunuch was very worried about Dong Rong's situation, and it was rare for her to say a few good words for her.

It's not that he has received many benefits from the Zhongshan Palace, it's because people with physical disabilities like them have the most sensitive minds.On weekdays, he bowed his knees and served his master, feeling extremely inferior in his heart.Although Dong Rong did not enter the palace many times, she treated him very kindly every time, without any disdain or contempt in her eyes.He couldn't help but feel close, so he couldn't help talking too much now.

The Empress Dowager shook her head, and said with a light smile, "No need, that brat Huaide is very capable. Although the previous assassination was more dangerous, how could he die so easily? Aijia doesn't believe that he is already dead. If not, he would not have stopped the emperor from issuing an edict. As the saying goes, you must see people in life, but you must see corpses in death. In the past six months, he has not heard anything about him. That brat hid himself tightly, without his wife by his side There might be a squeeze of water around him, and it's just to let Concubine Bo make his precious daughter-in-law suffer, so that he can be forced out earlier."

"Then what if the prince doesn't come out?" The old eunuch was careful not to speak clearly, but the meaning was self-evident.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter if he doesn't show up. His wife is not someone who can be bullied and bullied. With the skills of the Qingyuan Palace, she may not be able to beat her. Let's sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, mourning the family Just take a closer look, what is so special about her that Huaide can willingly let go of his country and marry her alone."

Of course, there is the most important sentence that the old lady never said.That is, what kind of ulterior secret does that Qingyuan Palace man have? If he is so willing to die, he will also put Zhongshan Wang and his wife to death.

"The empress dowager is wise." The master said so, and the old eunuch naturally couldn't refute, so he responded respectfully.

The Empress Dowager waved her hand to signal him to step back, but fell into deep thought again.If it was really a matter of life and death, she would naturally not care about Princess Zhongshan's life or death. After all, she was Huaide's daughter-in-law and the mother of three great-grandchildren, and she looked at the Buddha's face instead of the monk's face.
