The reborn concubine seeks the world

Chapter 224
I followed Yu Wenjin and walked out of Qianyuan Hall.

Naturally, Wang Shunxi was Yu Wenjin's personal eunuch, so he followed him to the Dongpian Hall.

Now the fourth prince has been taken care of by Lan Qiu himself, and Zi Yuan is naturally still busy back and forth in the house. In the past, I had doubts about Zi Yuan, but until now, I have taken all precautions against her.

The fourth prince hadn't slept in this room, and Lan Qiu was hugging him to bask in the sun in the yard. Yu Wenjin hugged the fourth prince from Lan Qiu's hands, and Fang said with some regret: "Father, I really hope that you can grow up quickly." , to relieve father's worries and labors, but you are still so young!"

I can feel that Yu Wenjin's tone seems to be full of sadness, but even so, I will definitely not forgive him!
The fourth prince was hugged in Yu Wenjin's arms, and he also had a smile on his face. From time to time, he would stretch out his hand to grab Yu Wenjin's collar and study the pattern on the collar. His eyes were focused and lovely.

After all, the fourth prince is Yu Wenjin's own flesh and blood. He has inherited the advantages of Yu Wenjin's appearance, combined with the advantages of Murong Qingfeng, the current fourth prince looks really handsome.

After Yu Wenjin came to see the Fourth Prince, he also stayed in the East Side Hall at night. Naturally, he dismissed everyone, and I sat face to face with him, feeling completely helpless in my heart.

"Your Majesty, why are you bothering?"

I couldn't help but say such a sentence, and then I saw Yu Wenjin looked up at me and said: "I just want you to take a good look at my heart, Zhou Ning, I was once confused and killed my beloved woman, now I will never do that again, you may give me a chance!"

Hearing Yu Wenjin's words, Zhou Ning was stunned, then she raised her head to look at Yu Wenjin and said: "Since the emperor knows the status of a slave, he should also know how important General Murong is to a slave. Once some things happen, they can never be undone!"

I mentioned Murong Lie at this time because I hoped that Yu Wenjin would stop wasting effort on me. Naturally, upon hearing what I said, Yu Wenjin's expression darkened.

"I really hope that the only thing you care about is General Murong, that's all, I don't say anything, you can eat more, your daily meals are no better than the meals I eat."

Hearing this, our side opened the mouth and said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

In the evening, Yu Wenjin left, and I returned to my residence. I haven't seen Yu Wenli in the past few days, so naturally I also know that he told me that he is planning to deal with the Queen Mother, but I don't know What the hell is he planning.

Seeing that the New Year’s Eve is getting closer, the weather has been clearing up day by day. On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, something happened in Xuegui’s palace. The peony was poisoned in Xuegui’s meal, which was discovered by Liu Wen. , Shaoyao was sent back to the Palace of Compassion and Peace to be disposed of by the Empress Dowager herself.

Originally, this Shaoyao was originally a person from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and the Queen Mother has always trusted her, but the Queen Mother never thought that the person who came out of her own palace had the intention of poisoning Xuegui, the Queen Mother was also out of breath, and directly executed peony.

Right now Xuegui is in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, crying until her eyes are red.

"Auntie, you have to uphold justice for me, Shaoyao almost killed me!"

Seeing Mrs. Xuegui crying like this, the Empress Dowager felt a little distressed. After all, she was her own niece, and she secretly caused her own niece to be barren. After all, the Empress Dowager felt a little guilty in her heart!

"Xue'er, don't cry, the Ai family will arrange a safe personal maid for you later, or let Du Juan go to serve you?"

Hearing this, Xuegui cried and said: "Auntie, these days I often miss my life in the Lin Mansion. At that time, the color screen of the maid beside me served me wholeheartedly. Can Auntie ask someone to give me a hand? The color screen is connected to the palace to serve me?"

Seeing what Xuegui said, the queen mother stretched out her hand to hold Xuegui's hand and said with a smile: "You silly girl, you tell aunt earlier, aunt will definitely bring the color screen into the palace early, don't worry, aunt will arrange People go to the Lin Mansion to pick them up, don't be so sad anymore."

Seeing what the Queen Mother said, Xue Gui secretly sneered.

Originally, Xuegui really thought that the queen mother treated her sincerely, but since she learned that the queen mother was the chief culprit for her inability to conceive, Xuegui had already regarded the queen mother as someone who must be guarded against.

However, Xue Gui said on the face: "That's how I thank you, aunt."

At this moment, Lady Xuegui didn't cry any more, the queen mother took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and immediately persuaded: "It's my aunt's negligence, I didn't expect that Shaoyao would dare to do such an outrageous thing to you, But Xueer, you must understand that aunt has painstakingly treated you, no matter what aunt does, it is all for your own good!"

Seeing what the Queen Mother said, Xue Gui nodded slightly, "Xue'er knows that Aunt has always treated Xue'er like her own daughter, and Xue'er will not have a grudge against Aunt just because of Shaoyao!"

Hearing what Master Xue said, the Queen Mother felt a little relieved.

Seeing her, she said again: "Since that's the case, you should go back. I'm afraid the news about Shaoyao has also reached the emperor's ears. The emperor will definitely come to accompany you tonight."

Seeing what the Queen Mother said, Xue Gui pretended to be shy and said: "Auntie, Xueer really wants to give birth to a prince for the emperor, can aunt help Xueer think of other ways?"

The Empress Dowager looked at Lady Xue in a daze. Did she make a mistake when she ate so many safflowers before? The Empress Dowager knew that her niece had always been stubborn but stubborn. What's more, seeing her growing affection for Yu Wenjin, the queen mother regretted sending her to the palace and to the emperor's side.

"Xue'er, I can't remember such things as being pregnant. Are you still taking the medicine that Aijia asked Taifu Fu to prescribe for you?"

Suddenly hearing what the Queen Mother said, Xue Gui was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Don't worry, Auntie, Xueer has been taking the medicine prescribed by Doctor Fu!"

Seeing what Xuegui said, the queen mother nodded slightly, "You have been taking that medicine for more than a month, and it seems that it will not have much effect on your pregnancy. You should stop now, and I will let people inquire about it later. , but there are other prescriptions that will help you conceive the emperor's child."

Hearing these words, Xue Gui pretended to be grateful and said: "Yes, aunt!"

At this moment Xuegui came out of the Compassionate Ning Palace with a completely cold expression on his face.

After taking the medicine for more than a month, she was told to stop just now. She has already lost the ability to conceive, even if she stopped the medicine, it would be useless.

Fortunately, Shaoyao was removed by her. Every time she thought that Shaoyao belonged to the Queen Mother, she would hiccup and panic.

Now I heard Xiao Hezi talk about Shaoyao in front of the Qianyuan Hall, and I was relieved, thinking that Murong Yuan really moved very fast, and now that Liu Wen has gained the trust of Xuegui, it is almost impossible to do anything It's as easy as flipping the palm of your hand, but Liu Wen is the apprentice of Imperial Physician Fu after all, I'm afraid Xuegui won't trust him for too long, but I can do it if I can get rid of the minions of the Queen Mother beside Xuegui.

Mr. Xuegui, I have made up my mind a long time ago that I must do it myself.

In the evening, Yu Wenjin turned over the signboard of Xueguiren. I stood in the Qianyuan Hall and watched the father-in-law in the respect room leave, and went up to exchange a cup of tea for Yu Wenjin.

Seeing me doing this, Yu Wenjin frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you just change this tea, why did you change it again?"

Hearing this, I lowered my head and respectfully said: "My servant saw that the emperor drank Longjing all day long, and it is difficult to sleep at night, so I changed the quilt for you to chrysanthemum tea. It is also good for your body, Your Majesty."

In fact, there is a reason for me to say this, because in this cup of chrysanthemum tea, I gave it to me by the queen mother!
Hearing what I said, Yuwen Jinfang smiled and said: "It's still you who do things according to my heart!"

Seeing that Yu Wenjin had reached out to pick up the teacup and was about to drink it, suddenly I exclaimed, and Fang knelt down again.

"Your Majesty... Slaves... Slaves deserve to die!"

Seeing me doing this, Yu Wenjin frowned slightly, "What are you doing?"

Hearing this, I turned my head to look at Wang Shunxi who was still waiting in Qianyuan Hall, and Yu Wenjin immediately said, "Wang Shunxi, you go out first!"

Hearing this, Wang Shunxi said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Wang Shunxi from this chamber went out, I pretended to be terrified and said: "I beg the emperor to pour out the tea in his hand, there is a very poisonous crane crest red in it!"

Suddenly hearing what I said, Yu Wenjin looked at me in shock and said, "What did you say?"

Immediately, I pretended to tremble, and Fang said again: "Your Majesty, it's the Empress Dowager and Xue Guiren. The two of them once threatened the servants. If they want the fourth prince to live, they will let the servants poison the emperor's tea!"

In fact, this matter is naturally not related to Mrs. Xuegui, but Murong Qingfeng died because of her, how could I let her go!

Because, I have confirmed Yu Wenjin's thoughts for me again and again in my heart, so now I take the initiative to admit that he will not do anything to me. He sees that I don't want him to die, and he is afraid that it is too late for him to be happy!

"Zhou Ning, stand up and explain clearly to me!"

Hearing this, I got up, and then I said: "Your Majesty, after the empress's death, when the slaves were still on duty in Qingyun Palace, the Queen Mother sent someone to tie me to the darkroom of the Compassionate Ning Palace In the dark room, the dark room was like a torture chamber, extremely terrifying. At that time, it was the empress dowager's sister Xiuhe who forced the slaves. She knew that the slaves cared about the fourth prince's comfort, so she threatened me with the fourth prince's life. If the emperor dies, or The fourth prince died, and the slaves really had no choice at the time, so they agreed to Xiuhe just now!"

I deliberately told Yu Wenjin about this, just to let him relax his vigilance towards me. Naturally, the conflict with the Queen Mother became more intense. Mrs. Xuegui belongs to the Queen Mother, even though Mrs. Xuegui has deep affection for Yuwenjin, but As soon as I said these words, Yu Wenjin might not believe Xuegui's affection for him at all.

Hearing what I said, Yu Wenjin had a look of indifference.

"What a Queen Mother, what a Xuegui, they are so anxious to want me to die!"

After saying this, Yuwen Jinfang looked at me with a gentle face and said: "Zhou Ning, don't worry, since you have told me the truth, I will naturally not hold you accountable. To protect him with human hands, the queen mother must not take advantage of the loopholes and hurt my child!"

Hearing what Yu Wenjin said, I felt a little relieved. After all, I absolutely do not want anything to happen to the fourth prince. He is the only blood of Murong Qingfeng left in this world.

"Then will the emperor go to Xuegui's palace today?"

I shouldn't have asked about this matter, and I have no qualifications to ask, but since I told Yu Wenjin that the Queen Mother wanted to murder him, I naturally didn't want Yu Wenjin to be treated strangely after he knew about it. The queen mother knew that I told Yu Wenjin the truth.

Yu Wenjin looked at me firmly and said, "Of course I'm going!"

In the evening, Yu Wenjin went to the Xuehan Palace, and when I came out of the Qianyuan Palace at night, I was taken to a secluded place.

Du Juan looked at me with a cold expression on my face.

"How is the emperor still alive? Didn't you say you did it today?"

Now I was questioning me like this, but I looked at her and said: "I did put Hedinghong in the emperor's tea, but the emperor didn't drink it, what can I do?"

Hearing my question, Du Juan frowned slightly, "Then do you still have Crane Crown Red in your hand?"

Hearing this, I nodded slightly, "Miss Du Juan, don't worry, I still have some left over here!"

Seeing what I said, Du Juan still looked at me indifferently.

"Zhou Ning, don't play tricks on me. In the past, there was Prince Li backing you up. The queen mother was still a little scrupulous, but now that Prince Li has married Princess Anfeng, you have been abandoned by him. So you can do things for the Queen Mother, once the matter is done, the Queen Mother will definitely not treat you badly!"

Hearing this, I smiled coldly in my heart, but said on the face: "Miss Du Juan said that the servant will definitely find another chance to attack!"

After saying these words, Du Juan and I left separately, but after I saw Du Juan leave, I didn't go to Dongpian Hall, but to Xuehan Palace.

Sure enough, when Yu Wenjin came to Xuehan Palace today, I had expected it a long time ago. If he knew that Mr. Xuegui had the intention of murdering him, he would definitely not stay for long. I watched Yuwenjin come out of Xuehan Palace and went to Mr. Yugui's palace. Here, I just came out.

At this moment, at the door of Xuehan Palace, the sound of nobleman Xue crying and throwing things could be heard faintly, and then nobleman Xue ran out of the house in a hurry, looking as if he wanted to chase Yu Wenjin.

Seeing this, I naturally felt that the opportunity had come.

Naturally, I didn't expect to have such an opportunity to attack Xuegui tonight. What's more, she walked to the pond where I fell into the water while crying.

"Your majesty, you must trust my concubine, I have never thought of harming you!"

Seeing Mr. Xuegui looking so embarrassed, I walked over immediately.

"Master Xue, what are you doing!"

I smiled and walked over. When Xue Guiren saw me, he asked with a puzzled expression, "Zhou Ning, why are you here at this time?"

Hearing this, I looked at Mrs. Xue with a smile and said, "Master Xue, did the Emperor just tell you that you would harm him?"

Seeing that I asked, Xue Gui looked at me defensively.

"How did you know?"

Hearing this, we laughed, "Master Xuegui, this matter is naturally said by the servant girl. The Empress Dowager ordered the servant girl to poison the emperor's tea. If you think about it, Mr. Xuegui didn't know about it!"

Upon hearing what I said, Xue Guiren's eyes widened immediately!
"Auntie? She actually has the intention of murdering the emperor? This... How is this possible? If she really wants to do this, isn't she trying to plot rebellion?"

Hearing Mr. Xuegui say that, I smiled slightly.

"Yes, she naturally wants to rebel, Mr. Xue Gui, if she has no intention of rebelling, I wish you could give the emperor a few more princes, and then choose one of your children to inherit the throne in a legitimate way! But the Queen Mother Can't wait any longer, she must get rid of the emperor quickly, the current emperor is no longer under the control of the queen mother, so she will definitely prepare to kill the emperor, and then choose the concubine Zhen's child to inherit the throne!"

Hearing what I said, Xue Gui was stunned, and then she looked at me and said coldly: "You are talking nonsense, no matter how vicious my aunt is, she is a good queen mother, why do you have to make so many things? I understand, Zhou Ning, it must be you who are driving the relationship between me and my aunt behind, and that Liu Wen, since he is willing to promise me not to tell Imperial Physician Fu about the safflower in the medicine, it shows that he is not sincere at all. The one who is with Imperial Physician Fu, maybe he...he is probably someone from Murong Yuan!"

Seeing that Master Xue had figured this out, we laughed.

"Master Xuegui, it is true that I intend to separate you and the Queen Mother, but you cannot have a child, and it is indeed the Queen Mother who did it. I did not lie to you about that!"

When I was speaking, I was approaching Xue Guiren step by step. At this moment, Xue Guiren was standing by the pond. She never thought that I would have the idea of ​​killing her!
I held a few silver needles tightly in my hand, and when Lady Xuegui didn't pay attention, I stretched out my hand and suddenly stabbed the silver needles towards her fainting acupuncture points.

Soon the nobleman Xue who was still talking to me lost consciousness, I saw her fall on the ground, then bent down, looked at her and said coldly: "Mr Xuegui, I'm sorry, you hurt Murong Qing Feng's life, he has done so many bad things, you will harm me one day, I have to kill you with my own hands!"

After all, I stretched out my hand and pushed her into the pond I fell into.

"Master Xuegui, I'm just retaliation now, so don't blame me!"

Because Lady Xuegui lost consciousness, she didn't struggle after being pushed into the pond by me. Naturally, she would not attract the maids and eunuchs in the palace.

Chinese New Year is almost here, and if the Empress Dowager heard the news of Xue Gui's drowning, she would probably die of grief, but my revenge against her is just the beginning, and the next step, I must deal with her!

Having dealt with Mr. Xuegui, my heart was completely filled with hatred. I was about to leave at this moment, but I didn't want a hand to suddenly reach out from behind me, and suddenly covered my mouth.

I panicked, but I didn't want to hear Yu Wenli's voice in my ears.

"Ning'er, don't be afraid, it's me!"

Then he let go of me, and I raised my eyes to look at Yu Wenli, my heart was still extremely flustered.

"My lord, I... I just killed someone!"

Seeing what I said, Yuwen Lifang stretched out his hand to embrace me in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, Mrs. Xuegui should have ended up like this long ago. Ever since she killed Murong Qingfeng, I expected you to do something to her! So Ning'er, you didn't kill her alone, this king is actually an accomplice!"

Hearing that he himself said that he was an accomplice, I looked up at him puzzled and said, "Why do you say that?"

Then Yu Wenli laughed and said: "Why do you think the emperor left Xuehan Palace angrily? Because the tea prepared by Xuehan Palace for the emperor was put in red crane crest!"

Knowing this all of a sudden, I looked at Yu Wenli in amazement. I originally thought that Yu Wenjin had gone to the Xuehan Palace to confront the nobleman Xue about the Queen Mother's harm to him. Unexpectedly, it was because of this that Yu Wenjin misunderstood Xue The nobleman wants to kill him!
However, what I don't understand is how many people belong to Yu Wenli in the palace, and why I always feel that in this palace, he seems to be able to do whatever he wants.

Thinking of this, I remembered that a few years ago, when I was the empress, Yu Wenli used to walk around the palace and act mischievously in the palace. Now that I think about it, I always feel that his purpose is not pure!
Instead, I looked up at Yu Wenli and said, "My lord, you...do you want to sit in that chair?"

This is the first time I have asked such a question in front of him.

Seeing Yu Wenli looking down at me, she immediately said: "Ning'er, I don't want to hide from you, I have always wanted to sit on that chair!"

After getting this answer, a sense of loss suddenly rose in my heart.

I stretched out my hand and pushed Yu Wenli away, and then said: "My lord, I don't want to go down the old road again!"

After I said this, I turned around and was about to leave, but Yu Wenli suddenly caught up behind me.

"Ning'er, but if that chair is with you, if I insist on letting me make a choice, I will definitely choose you!"

Hearing this suddenly, I subconsciously stopped, and Yu Wenli had already walked in front of me.

I looked at him and asked lightly: "What you said is true?"

Hearing this, Yu Wenli stretched out her hand and said, "I can swear to the heavens! Ning'er, in my heart, you are the most important thing. For you, I am willing to give up everything!"

Hearing what he said, my heart immediately warmed up. It turns out that he is different from Yu Wenjin!

Back then Yu Wenjin chose the throne between me and the throne, but now Yu Wenli told me that if he had to choose, he would only choose me!

Thinking of this, I reached out and hugged Yu Wenli actively, I buried my head in his arms and said, "Okay, I'm willing to believe you once!"

At this moment, Yu Wenli also stretched out his hand to hold me tightly in his arms, and heard him say: "Ning'er, the king is going to attack the queen mother these few days, so it's good that you live in front of the Qianyuan Palace! "

Hearing this, I nodded slightly, "Okay!"

I didn't ask Yu Wenli why he appeared in the palace at this time, and I didn't ask him, if I want to send him a message next time, who should I go to, because I know one thing, my every move is already under his control I'm in the middle, so I don't have to look for him. If he feels the need, he will definitely come to me on his own initiative. This will naturally reduce the danger of us passing the news.
