Playful Queen

Chapter 103

After watching Haidrui retreat, Mengli set her eyes on the mute slave who was still kneeling in front of her. For some reason, every time she looked at her, there was always a trace of pity in her heart. She stood up and helped her up. "Get up, isn't it tiring to kneel like this?"

The dumb slave seemed a little flattered, but she still stood up silently, a smile gradually appeared on her pretty face, as if she had found a pillar, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Meng Li also smiled faintly at her, and called Qiu Shui over, saying: "Okay, you go down with Qiu Shui to clean up first, and Piao Xue will arrange any work."

Seeing Qiushui leaving with the mute slave, Piaoxue asked: "Mother, why did you keep this maid? At this time, the servant feels that it is better for the empress not to cause trouble for herself."

"Instead of passively letting trouble find me, it's better for me to actively find trouble. This kind of scene is more fun, isn't it?"

Mengli sat down and leaned against the back of the chair, picked up the autopsy notes and started to read them. After reading a few words, she stopped and asked, "Is there any result of what I asked you to investigate?"

Piaoxue shook her head, her face was a little dark, but she still said what she knew: "I only know that the dumb slave is from Bianzhou, I don't know anything else, but I have heard that the dumb slave He was about to be eliminated in the primary election, but he happened to meet Li Cong, and saw that she had great piano skills, so he took her to his bedroom."

Unexpectedly, there were only so many things about the dumb slave, which made Mengli even more curious, so she confessed to Piaoxue: "In the future, if you pay more attention to the dumb slave, maybe you can learn something from her. "

"Yes, the servant knows."

For Piaoxue, the female official, she looks a little cold, but she is also very quick in handling things, and she can rest assured, as for the other people in the palace, she should also take action.

Mengli waved her hand and said, "Okay, you go down, and let Jiaoyue bring me ginseng tea."

Piao Xuefu stepped back, and Meng Li's eyes fell on the densely packed words in the notes. Under the light, Meng Li's face was fair and bright, but the corners of her eyes gradually became cold...

Soon, Haoyue opened the door, came in respectfully with ginseng tea, reached out and handed the ginseng tea to the empress, and said in a calm tone: "My lady, your ginseng tea."

Mengli put down the things in her hands, raised her head slightly to look at the bright moon, then she turned her eyes to the ginseng tea she handed over, casually reached out to take the ginseng tea, lifted the lid of the cup and smelled it, and just about to put it in her mouth When she was at the side, she stopped again, glanced at the bright moon from the corner of her eye, with a faint smile on her lips, lowering her incomprehensible coldness.

"From the day I lived in Fengyi Hall, Jiaoyue, you have always been well-behaved. These days, you have served me very well. This tea is my reward for you."

"It's absolutely impossible, slaves are not allowed to drink this precious thing." Jiaoyue was obviously taken aback by the empress' behavior, she didn't know why the queen empress did this, did she know something?Thinking of this, Jiaoyue pushed Shencha away with a look of surprise, her face became more and more nervous.

"Drink as soon as I ask you to drink, don't be silly, don't you even give me this empress?" Mengli raised her eyebrows lightly, and her tone gradually became serious, so serious that it shocked the moon, although she came to the palace Not long after, I also heard that it would not be a good thing for the women in the harem to give tea and wine. Could it be that the empress is going to treat her...

Jiaoyue took a step back, knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said in horror: "I dare not, my servant is wrong, please forgive me."

"Wrong? What's wrong? Isn't it wrong to serve me a cup of ginseng tea? I don't understand what you said..."

The corner of Mengli's mouth still had a deep but invisible smile, her bright eyes stared straight at Jiaoyue, she squatted down, and said, "Could it be that you have done something to offend me?"

To Jiaoyue, these words didn't sound like a question, but affirmation, looking at the cold expression of the empress, which made her turn pale with fright.

"Slaves deserve ten thousand deaths for their sins, and slaves deserve ten thousand deaths for their sins." He kowtowed several times, and kept saying this sentence in his mouth.

"Tell me, who ordered you to do that. Don't put all the charges on yourself. You don't have the qualifications yet."

That night, it wasn't Zixuan who drugged her, then it was the people around her. Ever since she met Zixuan, she had begun to observe the people around her. She really didn't want to think that this person was actually the well-behaved Jiaoyue, why she made such a big fuss In order to further prove that she deliberately provoked Xia Yunxi, she took Feng Xi as a After a woman gets angry, she will definitely show her fox tail, so she let Qiushui follow the bright moon all day, how she hoped that there would be no result after Qiushui came back, but the result was as she expected.

Mengli frowned. Although she knew that the palace was full of intrigue and she should not trust anyone, she would still feel sad. After all, people have feelings, but they didn't show their feelings to her, "Could it be that this palace treats you poorly? You want to be framed like this!"

"The empress is kind to the servants, and the bright moon can see it in the eyes, but..." The tears of the bright moon slipped down, and she dared not look up at Mengli with guilt, sobbing and continued: "The bright moon can't help herself, the servant girl If you do something like that, you deserve to die, and the empress will definitely not let the servants go, but she said in a clever way, if the servants don't do what she said, they will not let the servants' family members go."

While talking, she kowtowed her head vigorously. After doing this, she was also in a bad mood. The empress knew her difficulties before, so she gave money to her mother for medical treatment, and even sent his younger brother to study in a school. Not only that, but for These servants are very caring, she is so glad that she followed a good master, she thought about repaying the master well, but...

"That day, my servant asked for leave to leave the palace not because my mother was sick, but because my mother was taken away. The servant searched anxiously for a day, and later found out that my mother had been taken away. Immediately after, Qiaoyu came to talk to me. Said, as long as I do this for her, I won't do anything to the slave's mother, if not... the slave will never see her again."

Haoyue is a filial child, and she entered the palace to treat her mother's illness and educate her younger brother, so threatening her family is naturally the best way.

"What they want you to do is to drug me?" Xia Yunxi, you are so despicable!
Jiaoyue nodded, and Mengli couldn't help frowning. She didn't necessarily just take the medicine, but she must have some action later.
