The concubine is poisonous

Chapter 88
At the same time when everyone decided to deal with Gu Xinning, Ying Keqing had already received a secret letter from Mo Luotang, which said that Ye Junyan would be in a coma for a few days, and that in the court of Zhaoxuan Kingdom, There will be chaos for several days, let Ying Keqing take advantage of the leaderless opportunity to send troops to attack Zhaoxuan State.

After Ying Keqing received the secret security, he immediately notified the clan chiefs to prepare the army and prepare to attack the border at night.

At night, Zuo Haobai quietly put down several guards and eunuchs guarding outside the Hall of Qinzheng, after which Chang Kong quietly entered the Hall of Qinzheng with a big sack on his back.

As soon as Zuo Haobai and Chang Kong walked into the Qinzheng Hall, Gu Xinning, who had been eroded by soft gluten powder and weakened all over, opened her eyes and stood up.She complained to Zuo Haobai: "Look at what bad idea you have, you have made this lady all white." Although it was a complaint, Gu Xinning tried to keep her voice down. Spread out very far.

Zuo Haobai took a look at Gu Xinning's white face from head to toe, and couldn't help laughing out loud, even Chang Kong who came in behind couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

Seeing the two laughing at herself like this, Gu Xinning felt very displeased, she pulled her cheeks and said, "Laugh again and wait until I get out, and sew both of your mouths shut." Due to the white face, Gu Xinning even The face is deliberately elongated, but the expression is not obvious.

Zuo Haobai suppressed a smile, waved his hands and said in a low voice: "Don't laugh, don't laugh, I just thought that you would scare them with words and make them afraid of you, so I sent the imperial doctor to give you a pill of cartilage. Or stick a few needles to seal the acupoints or something, who would have thought they would be so careful that they wouldn't even dare to touch you, but actually use this kind of thing, poof. Hahahaha" Zuo Haobai couldn't help laughing again as he spoke.

Seeing Zuo Haobai's gloating expression, Gu Xinning became more and more annoyed, clenched her fists tightly, as if she was about to punch her once she got out of the iron cage.

Zuo Haobai and Chang Kong laughed for a while, and finally remembered the business to do, so he quickly found the key to the iron cage under Ye Junyan's desk, and opened the cage. As soon as the door opened, Gu Xinning punched Zuo Haobai hit his face, Zuo Haobai lightly raised his hand and grabbed Gu Xinning's fist and said, "Grandma, now is not the time to rebel in the nest, you should first check how your substitute is doing."

After speaking, he opened the sack that Chang Kong was carrying, and there was a person in it. When Gu Xinning saw the appearance of this person clearly, he couldn't help admiring: "Like, it's so similar, it's like looking in a mirror." As shown in the picture, Chang Kong, the master hand, really lives up to his reputation."

Inside the sack was a woman who was exactly the same as Gu Xinning in terms of appearance and clothes. Chang Kong heard Gu Xinning's praise, and said a little embarrassedly: "Miss Gu, it's just a small skill."

Gu Xinning said again: "You go out first, let me change this white clothes with her."

After Zuo Haobai and Chang Kong went out, Gu Xinning took off her clothes and swapped them with the clothes of the woman who looked exactly like her now, then picked up a small cloth bag from the ground and opened it, which also contained some The white powder, which Gu Xinning secretly collected when Doctor Liu was spreading soft gluten powder on herself, took advantage of the fact that the cage was covered in white and others couldn't see the situation clearly.

Gu Xinning evenly sprinkled the collected soft gluten powder on the fake Gu Xinning's body, then put the fake Gu Xinning on the chair, put the fake Gu Xinning on the table in the same posture as before, and then closed the cage door again. After the key returned to its original position, he quietly exited the hall.

When the two saw Gu Xinning come out, Zuo Haobai stepped forward and asked: "Everything is arranged inside? Then the medicine powder of Yuyu Liu really works? Don't tell her to wake up and talk nonsense when she wakes up."

Gu Xinning shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I've checked it. Compared with some medicines in the Jianghu, this so-called soft gluten powder is not as effective, but it is more than enough for a weak girl who doesn't know martial arts. Are you going to the palace?"

Ye Junyan shook his head and said: "Not yet, after Ye Junyan was poisoned, the number of guards and forbidden troops in the palace has increased by more than three times than usual, so hide in the cold palace first, and wait for me to arrange some small chaos later. Leave in disorder."

Gu Xinning looked at Chang Kong with a bitter face and said, "Can't it be easy?"

After hearing this, Zuo Haobai smiled and said: "Haha, so you are afraid of this! Miss Gu, who is fearless, is afraid of Yirong? If this matter gets out, how can you have the face to be a quack! "

Gu Xinning pouted disdainfully and said, "I see whoever dares to criticize me, whoever dares to criticize me, I will poison them to death."

Zuo Haobai shook his head and said, "Let's go, I'm not serious, these people are about to wake up, and they have to seize the time to change your face when they get to the cold palace."

"Ah~ I still need to disguise myself!" Gu Xinning said painfully, and then followed closely behind Zuo Haobai, dodging left and right all the way, and finally reached the cold palace that Zuo Haobai had mentioned.

Gu Xinning looked at the entrance, the plaque on the palace gate has long been taken off, and the original name of the place is no longer known. The inside and outside of the palace walls are overgrown with weeds, obviously no one has cleaned them all year round. After entering the courtyard, a dilapidated and desolate place comes into view .

Gu Xinning looked at the scene in front of her, nodded and said, "Well, there must be very few people coming to such a place except for the maids or eunuchs who deliver food. It is indeed a good place to hide." Haobai's sleeves smiled and said, "Brother Haobai. Since there is such a good place to hide, why don't you want it?"

When Gu Xinning said this, Zuo Haobai already knew what Gu Xinning wanted to express, but Gu Xinning was still unwilling to be disguised by Chang Kong, Zuo Haobai immediately tapped Gu Xinning on the forehead and said: "Of course not, if someone looks at you Now that we're here, do you think that no one will come to the Leng Palace? Let's go, your room is over here."

Hearing what Zuo Haobai said, Gu Xinning had no choice but to continue pouted, followed Zuo Haobai, and walked to the room Zuo Haobai said.

When Gu Xinning saw the incomparably exquisite tools being taken out by Chang Kong from revenge again, Gu Xinning's heart almost collapsed. In the eyes of others, each piece seemed incomparably exquisite and could not be made without the hands of a master. In Gu Xinning's eyes, the exquisite utensils produced seem like demons trying to erode her soul. If Zuo Haobai hadn't repeatedly promised to help her change her original appearance after leaving the palace, Gu Xinning would really be Ning Wouldn't even die to do that.

After Chang Kong finished applying the liquid that Gu Xinning saw last time on his hands, Chang Kong first rubbed his hands back and forth to let the skin absorb the liquid, then stretched his hands towards Gu Xinning's delicate face, and Gu Xinning subconsciously closed her eyes After that, she felt a pair of cold and smooth hands begin to gently rub her face, kneading, pinching, and pulling, but the movements were very light.

Maybe it's because Gu Xinning hasn't had a good rest recently. As Chang Kong's hand was gently kneading Gu Xinning's face, Gu Xinning gradually felt sleepy. Lost consciousness.

When she opened her eyes again and woke up, Chang Kong had disappeared, only Zuo Haobai was still sitting by the bed, looking at her quietly.

Gu Xinning rubbed her eyes and asked, "Why did I fall asleep?"

Zuo Haobai looked at Gu Xinning with pity and said, "Probably because you haven't been sleeping well recently."

Gu Xinning sat up and asked again: "Is my face finished?"

Zuo Haobai nodded, and took a mirror from behind and handed it to Gu Xinning. Gu Xinning looked into the mirror, and what was reflected in the mirror was a face that she had never seen before. It was a face that looked only in her 20s. The face, however, has been marked by vicissitudes of life, and there are obvious wrinkles at the corners of the eyes. This face should have been beautiful, but the haggard and perennial despair made the eyes on this face empty and lifeless, and the expression has become rigid And numb.

When Gu Xinning saw this face, she couldn't help being taken aback. Knowing that Zuo Haobai once again assured Gu Xinning that as long as she left the palace, she would be able to return her face, Gu Xinning's mood gradually calmed down.

On the same night, on the border of Zhaoxuan Kingdom, a battle between guards and invaders was unfolding.Although Zhaoxuan Kingdom is ready to face the battle at any time, after all, in the middle of the night, people are inevitably sleepy and slack, and the enemy is here to attack, so everyone is full of energy. In the first battle, they have already gained the upper hand. The soldiers of Zhaoxuan Kingdom Hastily confronted the enemy and once fell into a bitter battle.

By the noon of the second day, the 35 defenders of Zhaoxuan Kingdom had died and less than 10 remained, but only tens of thousands had been lost in southern Xinjiang. Report to the imperial court to report the military situation.

At this time, the empress dowager had ordered to tie the weak 'Gu Xinning' in the iron cage to the execution ground. The empress dowager and Ran Yunmo personally attended the execution, and Zhao Yuning also followed in the team to see Gu Xinning's head fell.

Seeing Gu Xinning kneeling softly on Xingtai, the Empress Dowager and Ran Yunmo looked at each other, nodded and smiled, showing extremely satisfied expressions.

As soon as the time came, the supervisor and beheading officer asked people to come forward to verify that he was behind him, and then Zhu approved and ordered the execution.

The Empress Dowager and Ran Yunmo laughed and left only after seeing Gu Xinning's head cut off with a single knife and rolled on the ground for a long distance.

After returning to the palace, Zhao Yuning hurriedly asked Ran Yunmo, "Sister, Gu Xinning is dead, when can I resume my status as Concubine Ning?"

Ran Yunmo chuckled lightly and said: "Sister, it depends on the emperor's decision, let's talk about it after the emperor wakes up."

"Oh." After Zhao Yuning listened, she responded sullenly, and then stopped talking.

In the past few days, Ran Yunmo's attitude towards Zhao Yuning has obviously become less intimate than when Xiang used Zhao Yuning to suppress Gu Xining. Sometimes Zhao Yuning would ask Ran Yunmo to chat, but Ran Yunmo would often use some excuses to push her away, and Zhao Yuning had gradually I feel some clues, but I am humble now, and I dare not say anything, I can only plan in my heart to get back my own status as soon as possible, so I don't need to look at Ran Yunmo's face.
