Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 140 Murder (3)
Finally, it seemed that even the sound of silk and bamboo in the distance gradually became silent, and the sound of noisy footsteps approached again.

The light was approaching, reflecting the layered shadows, and a eunuch holding a lantern walked quickly into the imperial garden with small steps, illuminating the way for the large group of nobles behind him.

The person who took the lead was unexpectedly the empress dowager!

A large group of people came to the imperial garden with a "hula la", and when they came to the side of the two, Duanmujing hurriedly stepped forward to help her sister up, but because she knelt for too long, Duanmutian staggered when she stood up After a while, Duanmujing frowned immediately, helped her to sit down on the spot again, reached out and gently kneaded her legs.

When Fenglou came over, he also helped Jun Xiuran up, and said with a charming smile, "Third Highness, you have suffered. The emperor specially ordered the servants to come and take you out of the palace, and told you to rest well after you go back."

Beside, the Empress Dowager was full of distress under the support of the maids, and said: "You two children are really reckless, otherwise you would not be punished by the emperor to kneel down." Then she said to the maids and eunuchs beside her, "You two are really reckless. What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and rub your legs for the Third Highness and the princess? You have been kneeling for so long, so don't get hurt."

She is like an amiable and kind-hearted grandmother of an ordinary family. She feels sorry for the junior being punished. The distressed face and worried eyes all show that she really cares about these two people.

And after the birthday banquet ended today, she even ran to the imperial garden in person.

It's really a blessing, I'm flattered, and I'm lucky for my life.

Duanmu Tian wanted to stand up and salute, but the Empress Dowager stretched out her hand and pushed her back, saying: "You don't need to be too polite, you'd better sit down and let someone rub your legs."

A court lady stepped forward, but was blocked by Mr. Chen who pushed up from behind. He squatted down on the other side of Duanmu Tian and gently rubbed her legs.

How can someone else do it?What if he pinched the cotton bag tied by Mr. Chen himself?
The Empress Dowager turned around and said to the old concubine: "It's getting late, the girl must be tired from kneeling by now, I'd better take her back to have a good rest."

"Yes, my concubine will take Tian Tian back here. Thanks to the empress dowager's concern, this girl Tian Tian has not suffered in vain."

The old concubine responded respectfully, but she was rolling her eyes in her heart.

If you really care, why did you deliberately delay the birthday banquet until now?
Duan Mujing hugged her younger sister by the waist, bid farewell to the empress dowager and left the imperial garden with her grandmother, her expression was as gentle as ever, but her eyes were a little dark and misty.

Duanmu Tian who was in his arms suddenly raised his head, looked at the figure standing not far from the queen mother, and brazenly met those cold eyes.

Empress Defei!

Watching the group of people from the Duanmu Palace leave, the others turned their eyes back to Jun Xiuran, who was being lifted up by the bodyguards. The Queen Mother said a few words of concern to Xu Xu, and then left the Royal Garden with the help of the maids, and went back In his bedroom, the other palace masters who came with the Queen Mother also left with the Queen Mother after a few words of concern.

Where Jun Xiuran stood, his expression was calm and his posture was natural. He didn't seem to have any discomfort from kneeling for more than five hours. With the same look, he looked at his concubine mother who was still standing there looking at him.

Concubine De looked at him indifferently, she looked at him quietly, and finally spoke after a while, saying: "Ran'er, you are too reckless today, if you annoy your father because of this, you will be the one to suffer."

"Do you just want to tell me this?" Jun Xiuran smiled lightly, but the smile was only superficial, without any joy or warmth.

Hearing his rhetorical question, Concubine De suddenly showed sullen expression, and said: "What's your attitude? Concubine Mother is thinking of you. It's been hard for you to get to where you are today, and your father also thinks highly of you. You should be more cautious and not make any mistakes, otherwise, when your father gets angry, everything you have now will be completely shattered."

"Mother and concubine Xie taught me, my son will keep it in mind."

Concubine De frowned even more, and said: "For a woman, you did not hesitate to injure yourself, and punished you to kneel in this imperial garden with her. It is really outrageous! You are someone who wants to achieve great things, how can you be a child?" Long love? And she is such a cruel and ugly woman, even if you are for the Duanmu Palace, you don't have to do it to this extent! Don't forget your own identity, and don't... "

"Are you finished?"

Concubine De was startled when she was interrupted suddenly, then her face darkened, and she said, "What did you say?"

Jun Xiuran put his hands in his sleeves lightly, curled his lips into a light smile, and smiled so radiantly, Shi Shiran said: "Regardless of the sincerity or not, the emperor's grandmother came here without a word of blame but said A bunch of concerned words, even the empress is caring and caring, saying that she should go back to the mansion earlier to rest, and she has to find the imperial doctor to see if there is any injury, let alone the other ladies. Even punishing my father Although you may still be annoyed, you still sent Fenglou over. But you, concubine mother, from the beginning to the end, have you ever worried that if I knelt here for a day and starved for a day, would I feel unwell, and would I be safe?"

Concubine De's heart shrank suddenly, but she snorted coldly: "They are just pretending, which one is really worried about you?"

"You don't even have any hypocrisy?"

"I am your concubine mother, can I still harm you?"

"you will not?"

Jun Xiuran chuckled suddenly, and looked at her in surprise.

Concubine De choked suddenly, the dim lantern couldn't illuminate her face, leaving only obscurity.

"I know you blame me." She said softly, "But after all, you were born in October of my pregnancy, and I didn't..."

"Bai Feng!" Jun Xiuran suddenly turned his gaze away, interrupting Concubine De's words again.

And as his words fell, a man in black quietly appeared beside him, and respectfully said: "Master!"

Jun Xiuran turned around and said indifferently, "Go back to the mansion!"

"Yes!"

Bai Feng responded, then took two steps forward and stretched out his hands to support the master, suddenly rose up from the ground, and disappeared in an instant.

Concubine De was still standing there looking at the empty place, her face was gloomy, she didn't realize it until the maid beside her called her softly, and said coldly: "Go back!"

Then he turned around and left the Royal Garden.

After everyone left, some people were still lingering in the imperial garden, refusing to leave for a long time.

Occasionally there was a soft cry, she suddenly stopped, stared blankly at the rockery next to her, she didn't know what she was thinking about, and after paying half her salary, she suddenly rushed towards the rockery and hit her head to death.
