Chapter 81
"Hey, there are assassins assassinating your mother, why did you get limed and seriously injured? There is such a person with such high martial arts skills by your mother's side, why recommend it to my son..." Duanmu said in a deep voice, stretching out his hand to shake a spoon Pass the soup to Wen Lanying.

"This..." Wen Lanying felt uneasy, she didn't know how to answer the words, so she hurriedly picked up soup to cover up.

"The Queen Mother is not feeling well..." Feng Mujin raised her eyes to Wen Lanying, who felt guilty, and asked in a cold voice.

"No..." Wen Lanying calmed down, wiped the soup from the corner of her mouth with a brocade handkerchief, looked at Duanmu Shi in a blink of an eye and said slowly: "Yi Ai's family sees that the assassin who assassinated Ai's family is the same as the Imperial Forest Army who assassinated the emperor. It was because they neglected the control of the imperial army and relaxed the guard of the palace, so that the assassins pretended to be the imperial army and sneaked into the palace to assassinate..."

"What does the empress mean..." Duanmu Shi waited for Wen Lanying's words, and was quite satisfied with Feng Mujin's cooperation.

"The empress dowager means that a group of imperial forest soldiers died in Zhaoyang Palace, and we will not pursue it anymore..." Feng Mujin answered calmly. The main reason why she cooperated with Duanmushi in acting was that she couldn't bear to see people posing in front of her. People are more disgusting than the stallion Duanmu.

"..." Wen Lanying twitched the corners of her mouth, Feng Mujin had said everything she had to say, so she could only pretend to be reasonable and nodded.

"That's very good, I also have the same intention..." Duanmu Shi nodded and said in a deep voice, this matter is just let it go, not bad!He is very satisfied!
"..." Wen Lanying's heart was in a panic, why did she feel that they dug a hole for her to jump down!Seeing the emperor and the imperial concubine becoming more and more suspicious, he shook his head with some headaches and said, "I'm tired of mourning the family. The emperor and the imperial concubine should go back after lunch..."

Feng Mujin got up neatly, knelt down to the empress dowager and the emperor, and walked out of the Jiaofang Hall with graceful steps. Wen Lanying was so angry that she couldn't breathe, she stared at the door.

Seeing this, Duanmu Shi was overjoyed, stood up and straightened the dragon robe for himself, nodded to the queen mother, and walked quickly to the gate of the palace, still shouting "My concubine, wait..." 
"Bastard..." Wen Lanying pointed at the door tremblingly and cursed angrily.

In the whole hall, only the court ladies and eunuchs peeping at each other and the empress dowager who threw bowls and chopsticks angrily...

"Feng Mujin, wait..." Duanmu Shi quickly caught up with Feng Mujin's pace, and stretched out his hand to grab her arm.

Feng Mujin frowned and stared at Duan Mushi holding her arm, raised her eyes to look at him and said coldly: "Let go..."

Seeing this, Duan Mushi withdrew his hand in embarrassment, reached out and took off the token on his waist and handed it to Feng Mujin, and said in a deep voice, "The token you want..."

Feng Mujin impatiently pulled the token in Duanmu Shi's hand, started to walk, but turned her head to see the scene in the imperial garden not far away, and stopped involuntarily.

At this time, two women dressed as concubines in the imperial garden were walking towards the pavilion, followed by a group of eunuchs and maids.And the back of the woman in white in the gazebo looked familiar, so Feng Mujin stopped in her tracks.

"What are you looking at..." Duanmu Shi was a little puzzled, following Feng Mujin's eyes, he happened to see Zhao Xiangran, and couldn't help frowning.I thought to myself: Ran'er is obviously not in good health, why did she leave Xianle Palace today, and wander around the Imperial Garden in leisure.

"Sister Noble Concubine, look at that, isn't that the newly conferred concubine Shu? It's been a while since I entered the palace, and I haven't greeted you before, I really don't understand etiquette..." said the concubine wearing a red and orange palace attire.

"Sister Concubine Xian is thinking too much. I am not in good health. I am bedridden and couch all the year round, so it is difficult to see guests! Even your usual greetings, I will avoid it! I think that Concubine Shu is a good one...cough Cough..." Zhao Xiangran lightly picked up the handkerchief, covered her lips and coughed lightly.

"That's my sister talking too much, sister noble concubine, let's go to the gazebo..." Concubine Xian didn't take it seriously, she pretended to support Zhao Xiangran and walked into the gazebo.

Su Ci was sipping tea and basking in the sun in the gazebo, he didn't want someone to come to him, looked up, feeling very restless, isn't this the imperial concubine?Didn't Zhao Xiangran stay out of the palace these few years?This one is really weird...

Zhao Xiangran realized that someone was looking at her, followed that line of sight, was startled, and murmured involuntarily: "Su Ci..."

Su Ci pretended to be puzzled and looked at Zhao Xiangran, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, pure and innocent peach blossom eyes, and said softly, "Are you calling me? I'm not Su Ci... "

"Bold, you are not polite when you see the imperial concubine, concubine Shu, you are so brave..." Concubine Xian said sharply, the thing she dislikes the most is a woman who looks too evil, especially this woman who looks like a human.

"Imperial concubine?..." Su Ci read these three words softly, looked at Zhao Xiangran with innocent eyes, then smiled slightly, leaned over and said, "Sister, concubine, sister ..." My heart is very contemptuous of calling myself elder sister and younger sister.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiangran was very satisfied with Concubine Shu's attitude, took a step forward to support Su Ci, raised a smile and said: "Sister, there is no need to be polite..." Then he turned to point at Concubine Xian and said: "This is Concubine Xian... "

"Sister Xianfei..." Su Ci twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, he admired himself very much for how well he dressed up as a woman.

"I dare not be ashamed, my sister is from Piaoxiang Tower, I really can't afford it. I heard that the emperor has been staying in Shuning Palace for the past few days, and the grace is in full bloom! This palace is not capable of this..." Concubine Xian said sarcastically, Seeming to have bumped into something dirty, he backed away involuntarily to distance himself from Su Ci.

"This..." Su Ci lowered his head in embarrassment, couldn't help but rolled his eyes, squeezed the brocade handkerchief tightly, pretending to be at a loss.

"Concubine Xian is joking, sister Concubine Shu, let's go to the lotus pond over there to enjoy the flowers, the lotus blooms very well this summer..." Seeing the scene, Zhao Xiangran took Su Zhi's hand and walked towards the lotus pond.

Concubine Xian curled her lips when she saw this, and walked on the other side of Zhao Xiangran, disdainful for Concubine Shu and Zhao Xiangran.Who in this palace doesn't know that the imperial concubine has no natal background and only has the title of imperial concubine, but she will never become a queen, and she is still a sick child, she doesn't bother to do anything to her.As for Concubine Shu, a girl from Qinglou who came from a humble background and served others in Israel, she has no need to take action.She has only one enemy, Prince Jin from Xunbei...

"Sister, look at this flower, ahem...it's so beautiful!" Zhao Xiangran coughed, took Su Ci with one hand and Concubine Xian with the other, and stood by the lotus pond.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Zhao Xiangran gently took Concubine Xian's hand to cover Su Ci's, and said softly: "For the sake of this palace, sister Xianfei, don't embarrass Concubine Shu anymore..."

"..." The corner of Su Ci's mouth twitched, the feeling of being eaten tofu by two women was really creepy.Su Ci couldn't help complaining about being eaten tofu, and continued to smile.

Seeing this, Concubine Xian waved her hand as if infected with the plague, trying to break free from Zhao Xiangran's hand, but she couldn't break free, she couldn't help looking at Zhao Xiangran in shock, seeing her weak, pale and pitiful, she murmured in her heart: " How is this going……"

Concubine Xian struggled again, but she couldn't get rid of it no matter what, at this moment Zhao Xiangran suddenly let go, and fell like Su Ci unsteadily.Su Ci, who was standing on the edge of the pool, instinctively reached out to support her body.

However, when Su Ci went to help her, Zhao Xiangran quickly stepped on Su Ci's foot, Su Ci's body was unstable and was pressed by Zhao Xiangran on his body, and fell into the lake.At this moment, Zhao Xiangran seemed to see the bright yellow figure, afraid of being seen through, he panicked and pulled Su Ci's hand, took a small step and missed, and both fell into the lotus pond with Su Ci.

"Bah..." The two fell into the water, splashing water, and then there were two cries for help: "Help..."

Concubine Xian who was standing on the shore was stunned, and shouted in panic, "Come here! Come here! We've fallen into the water, we've fallen into the water..."

At this time, a gust of wind passed by, and a black figure jumped into the water with a sound of "呯..." splashing water again, before Concubine Xian could react, it was like a gust of wind again, and a yellow figure jumped into the water "Bang..." splashed water all over Concubine Xian's face...

Su Ci splashed a few times in the water and drank a few sips of water. He was a landlubber. For him, marching and fighting, wielding knives and guns was no problem, but he couldn't swim.The more he struggled, the more he sank, making him unable to breathe, his body seemed to be covered with lead, and he became heavier and heavier. He felt that he was going to die, and no one seemed to be able to rescue him, maybe that was fine!So I stopped struggling, closed my eyes, and listened to the water waves piercing through the eardrums and the wings of the nose...

Feng Mujin eagerly searched for Su Ci's figure underwater, and she didn't know why, so she just jumped into the water regardless of the consequences.Seeing a figure not struggling not far away, my heart tightened, and I speeded up to swim in her direction, hugged her waist tightly, and supported her body to swim up...

"Huh..." Feng Mujin held Su Ci's head out of the water, swam to the shore and landed, patted her face nervously, frowned and said in a low voice, "Wake up...wake up, Cixiang!"

Seeing that she was unconscious, Feng Mujin thought of an emergency measure, pressed her chest secretly, watched her reaction nervously, repeated it two or three times in a row, only heard "噗呵..." and spit out a few words. saliva.

Su Ci opened it in a daze, and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face, especially the heartfelt smile at the corner of her mouth, which made him stunned!The corners of his eyes turned hot, and he murmured: "Xiao Jin..."

Feng Mujin frowned, somewhat displeased that she was crying, helped her up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, patted her back as if comforting, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay..." Then she realized She was weak, so she quickly stood up and pointed to the eunuch beside her and said, "Take off your clothes..."

The accused eunuch couldn't contain the aura of the imperial concubine, so he took off the eunuch's robe without spine and handed it to Feng Mujin.Feng Mujin took the clothes, put them gently on Su Ci's body, and said in a cold voice: "It's very cold, it won't be cold if you put it on..."

Su Ci was stunned for a moment, her mind went blank, she only remembered the care she had put on her clothes, the worry in her eyes, and the heat in her heart.Is this the feeling of being cared about? Why does he feel so warm? Is this an illusion?
