Evil Phoenix: The Queen's Good Conspiracy

Chapter 6 Queen's Responsibilities (1)
On the other hand, when Concubine Liu learned that Su Muqing had been hit by a board in Feishuang Hall, her spirits immediately rose, and that undisguised joy stirred up a restless atmosphere in Xiaoyue Hall.As far as Liu Huirong was concerned, she was not interested in knowing why Su Muqing went to Feishuang Palace, she just thought it was Su Muqing who wanted to file a complaint but was blocked back.She spent a whole noon looking at the bronze mirror with a smile on her face to tidy herself up beautifully, then flicking her sleeves, she pulled the eunuch beside her and walked towards Feishuang Palace.

It was a great joy in Liu Huirong's life to have the opportunity to make trouble for Su Muqing!Liu Huirong twisted her waist, thinking about what she would say to Su Muqing later as she walked.Along the way, Concubine Liu kept imagining various scenes in her mind, her face was extremely rich, even the eunuch next to her who was spying on her master's mind couldn't help but blushed, thinking that her master would definitely reward her later.

Seeing that they were approaching Feishuang Palace, Liu Huirong suddenly said, "Tell me, how will I appease the queen later?"

When the little eunuch heard it, he knew that the empress only wanted to hear bad things about the queen, so he said flatteringly: "Anyway, no matter what you say, the empress, she has to listen honestly." The little eunuch said, his eyes flashed with pride, "It's the same as today's empress who asked the servants to teach Qinglanxuan's maids a lesson. Otherwise, the queen can only swallow her anger. If the emperor wants to speak for her, he won't reward her!"

Liu Huirong snorted coldly, and even revealed a secret joy: "I can't blame this palace for punishing that maid. Whoever asked her to serve that bitch? Just pay some money later and send her family members away. I don't want to make things big."

But when Liu Huirong finished speaking, the little eunuch paused, with a layer of surprise on his face.He hurriedly trotted a few steps closer to Liu Huirong, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty... This maid has no family members, and she was not from the palace before. The servant thought that Your Majesty knew, so..."

Liu Huirong frowned, and said angrily, "You know what? Isn't she just an ordinary court lady?"

This frightened the little eunuch, he swallowed his saliva, and said cautiously: "Mother, she is not an ordinary maid, she is from Prince Qi's residence..."

At this point in the words, Liu Huirong took a sharp breath, and a trace of paleness appeared on her face.Beating a dog depends on the owner, but I didn't expect to offend Prince Qi.But when did Prince Qi become Su Muqing's influence?Speaking of which, the last time the eunuch reported the pastry incident, it seemed that Prince Qi helped Su Muqing out of the siege.When did these two people...

The corners of Liu Huirong's lips twitched slightly, she tightly held the silk in her hand, and said arrogantly, "It's okay, I will let my father help and pray for the prince's ward, now, I just want to see the miserable life of that bitch." So." Knowing that Prince Qi was helping Su Muqing, Liu Huirong let out a muffled snort, so she quickened her pace, as if holding her breath and wanting to see Su Muqing's downcast face sooner.

When Liu Huirong and the little eunuch turned the corner, she suddenly stood still, with a fierce gleam in her eyes.Because the woman who robbed her of her position, Su Muqing, the woman who robbed her of everything, is right in front of her!

Liu Huirong sneered, and walked towards Su Muqing without hesitation.Su Muqing on the other side also paused at the sound, and looked sideways at Liu Huirong on this side.At this time, the wind picked up and rolled up some dust.Her eyes met hers, and there was a tense atmosphere gradually spreading, as if the arrow was on the string, and it was about to explode.

"Hey, isn't this the queen's sister?" Liu Huirong said, her tone was full of ridicule, and her winking eyes were full of irony.Su Muqing looked at her quietly, so calm that she didn't show any expression, just letting the breeze lift her hair at the temples.

"Ah, how dare you not reply to Concubine Liu's words, and you want to be beaten again, don't forget that you are wearing a sinful body!" The little eunuch said domineeringly, he spied on Liu Huirong's face from time to time, as if he was determined It is necessary to support the master.

Su Muqing just sneered, did not reply, and still looked at her quietly.The breeze blew, and once again brushed the hair on her cheeks, revealing a charming look.

Seeing that Su Muqing didn't take herself seriously, Liu Huirong twitched the corners of her eyebrows, and she couldn't calm down the fire in her heart. She was sure that Su Muqing's calm at this time was due to her disdain to be compared with her concubine.Liu Huirong gritted her teeth, making a slight noise between her teeth.

No, she was wrong.Su Muqing didn't have such an expression today at all, but no matter how much she tortured this woman, she always faced her with this expression.That's why she hated her even more, so much that she wanted to cut her into pieces!

Looking at Liu Huirong's expression of tense veins, Su Muqing just breathed a sigh of relief.She turned her eyes indifferently, and wanted to walk past Liu Huirong, her calmness seemed to tell her that Su Muqing had never put Liu Huirong in her eyes.

The moment the two of them crossed arms, Liu Huirong suddenly couldn't hold back, and stretched out her hand to grab Su Muqing.But before she touched Mu Qing, she felt that her wrist was being held by a huge force, and the next moment, that force mercilessly threw her aside, causing Liu Huirong to fall down in embarrassment, like a dog in the water like that.

"Who! Who dared to push me!!" Liu Huirong yelled like she was going crazy, and the little eunuch also rushed up, but was kicked to the ground unexpectedly, and lay side by side with Liu Huirong.

"If you dare to attack the queen, you will be beheaded according to the law." At this time, a voice said coldly.

Liu Huirong's face was full of anger, she turned her head, looked fiercely at the person who had just attacked her, and shouted, "You dog slave! How dare you..."

However, when Liu Huirong turned her head, she froze there.The person in front of her was wearing a neat suit, the exquisite robe was inlaid with red and black patterns, and the black belt was tightly tied around his waist, showing his slender figure.He stared at Liu Huirong silently, steady and unmoved.This person is extremely beautiful, with black hair hanging down his waist, which can even make women feel ashamed.But on that indistinguishable face, there was a completely inhuman indifference, especially since he also had a pair of cold and heartless eyes, which seemed even more unapproachable.On his body, even though it was covered by the fragrance of snow, it couldn't cover the blood that was full of it.As if, this person has no life at all.

Liu Huirong was a little shaken, and even forgot to get up.Because she knew this man, she had secretly met him at the emperor's side - Dongchang... Shangguan Yu!One of the emperor's most important confidantes.

Liu Huirong turned her head in disbelief, looking at Su Muqing who was still sideways facing her, Liu Huirong yelled like crazy: "Why!! Why!!! Why would the emperor...!!!! I don't believe it, I don't believe it!! !!!”

Su Muqing lowered her eyes and turned around slowly.When she raised her eyes, a gust of wind blew up her long hair slightly, making it a bit chilly.When Su Muqing's gaze completely met Liu Huirong's, the awe that had been restrained on her body for a long time inspired Liu Huirong for the first time, and even her body began to stiffen.

Su Muqing just stood quietly with her hands behind her back, with a slight smile on her face.She looked down at the pale-faced Liu Huirong on the ground, and said unhurriedly: "I often say that people must learn to leave a way out for themselves. In order not to be trapped in a cocoon in the future. Sister, what do you think of what Bengong said? right?"

Seeing Liu Huirong standing there stupidly not knowing how to answer, Mu Qing raised her brows slightly and ignored her.She turned her eyes back, and walked forward without stopping any longer. The long hair behind her was lifted by the wind, and she swayed lightly from side to side, soft but aloof, just like Su Muqing at this time.

Liu Huirong looked at her receding back, and slowly got up, but her feet slipped and she fell down again.

The little eunuch immediately went up to help, but was pushed away by Liu Huirong and shouted "Get out!".The little eunuch was startled, and didn't dare to provoke Liu Huirong any more, so he turned around and ran away.

Liu Huirong was like this, staring at Mu Qing's back, clenched her fists tightly, and even tore the silk handkerchief out of shape, "Su Muqing, wait and see!" After that, she staggered to get up, but just now She was about to take a step, but she sprained her foot so badly that she almost cried out in pain.She beat the wall angrily, almost going mad, then gritted her teeth, and said fiercely: "Su Muqing, it's still unknown who will die! One day, I will take your phoenix hairpin away with my own hands!"

When Su Muqing turned a corner and out of Liu Huirong's sight, she suddenly seemed to be drained of strength, and suddenly went limp.Shangguan Yu quickly supported her with his eyes, but the icy temperature from his fingertips made Mu Qing involuntarily shrink back.She frowned tightly, her face was extremely pale, and the sweat beads on her forehead involuntarily slipped down.

Forty big boards are really no joke, but how could she fall down in front of Liu Huirong!

Su Muqing took a few deep breaths and stood up as much as possible.She slowly pulled her fingertips away from Shangguan Yu's hand, wiped the sweat from her forehead with her cuff, raised her eyes and asked, "Don't you ask about the matter just now?"

Shangguan Yu was still indifferent and silent, but simply replied, "I shouldn't ask the slave, and the slave naturally doesn't ask."

Su Muqing slightly moved her lower lip.It can be seen clearly that the emperor asked Shangguan Yu to guard her because of her consideration, but in fact it is clear that he placed a pair of eyes by her side.In this way, he can grasp everything about her, and even if one day she remembers where that thing is, she won't be able to act rashly.Accepting Shangguan Yu and not doing small things in private, this is also a condition that must be accepted to restore the queen's position.But in a word, Beitangfeng doesn't trust himself at all.

Su Muqing narrowed her eyes, then turned into a sneer.Compared with Bei Tangfeng, a man who is good at plotting and plotting, what is Liu Huirong's straightforward temperament?
There is a saying that the more arrogant and domineering a person is, the easier it is to deal with, because everyone knows the truth of shooting the first bird.But Beitangfeng was different, he hid himself very deeply, he pushed her into a dead end step by step, he had expected that she would come to him.As the saying goes, Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who wish to take the bait.Playing with her Su Muqing to applaud, presumably Beitang Fengzheng is enjoying it.

Su Muqing clicked her tongue in frustration, and turned to look at Shangguan Yu who was aside.She has an impression of the smell of this person, and she must have been knocked out by him on the first day of coming here.In a sense, she and him were old acquaintances, but she didn't expect that he was Shangguan Yu from Dongchang.

She had heard about Dongchang—directly subordinate to the emperor, which can be described as a dark thread for Beitang Feng to contain all the ministers.The Jinyi Guards of Dongchang are gathered together, and it is a frightening place where blood and power are concentrated.As for Shangguan Yu, he was the best at assassination and interrogation in the East Factory, so it was no wonder that he had an indelible smell of blood on his body.

"Let's go back to Qinglan Pavilion with Bengong first." Mu Qing said softly, then walked away caressing the wall by herself.Shangguan Yu just followed her quietly, not saying a word along the way.

Back at Qinglanxuan, Mingxue had already tidied up the house, and the injuries on her face had been treated briefly.Seeing Mu Qing's return, she was overjoyed, but was taken aback by Shangguan Yu who followed closely, and then she hurriedly turned her gaze back to Su Muqing, who was almost out of shape.

"Why is there blood all over my body..." Mingxue was a little flustered, and began to search for medicine bottles all over the room, accidentally touching her own wound, which made Mingxue's willow eyebrows tremble slightly.Enduring the pain on her body and face, she stuck out her fingertips again, but was grabbed by a pair of cold and slender hands.Mingxue's heart tightened, and she looked back to meet Shangguan Yu's narrow, long and clear eyes.

"Let me look for it." Shangguan Yu said concisely.He is one foot taller than Mingxue, and it is much easier to reach the height.Mingxue watched Shangguan Yu cautiously, rubbing her fingertips hesitantly in her sleeves.

The corners of Mu Qing's eyebrows were raised slightly, as if she could see the embarrassment, but she didn't think about it, she just quietly lay on the bed, intending to make up for the vitality that was "knocked out".Unexpectedly, before she touched the mattress, a little eunuch appeared out of nowhere and said that Su Muqing was going to pack up her things and go to sleep in Mingyang Palace.Mu Qing's body froze, and she shuddered suddenly, an unbelievable anger flashed in her quiet eyes.

Mingyang Palace is the emperor's sleeping palace, except for the empress, no concubines are allowed to enter casually, let alone sleep in the palace.This was originally a rule established at the Nanyue Grand Ceremony to respect the empress, but at this moment it has become a big knot in Su Muqing's heart.Of course, what is even more resentful to her is that she is almost inhuman and not a ghost, and she is even asked to sleep with her? !Does Beitangfeng still have humanity?
A series of questions reflected on Mu Qing's face turned into a few angry twitches.Mingxue looked at Mu Qing worriedly, and even Shangguan Yu, who was taking the medicine, inadvertently showed some sympathy.But the queen is the queen, the wife of the emperor's matchmaker, no matter how much displeasure she feels in her heart, she can't refute even a word.Because this is also one of the conditions of exchange.

Mu Qing took a deep breath, opened and clenched her five fingers hanging in the air, as if the remnant cloth between her fingers was the Beitang wind that tortured her to this point.She suppressed the emotions in her heart as much as possible, then raised her lips and smiled, and said to Mingxue: "If I can't come back, remember to chant sutras for me, so that I won't be tortured by someone in my next life." Mu Qing said , glanced sideways at Shangguan Yu, knowing that every word she said would pass through him to Beitangfeng's ears.

Su Muqing breathed a sigh of relief, and struggled to get off Jianbu's thin bed.She stood still, and brushed off the redness that had frozen on her hands.The eunuch beside him couldn't help but sneered, he couldn't figure out why the emperor favored the bloody queen.There was a smile in Mu Qing's eyes, as if she could see what the eunuch was thinking, she walked by and whispered in his ear like a feather falling: "I can't figure it out either."
