Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 322 Calculation
When he said this, Xia Qin completely forgot that if he hadn't privately shot Xia Zijin in order to threaten Xia Shengqing, which angered Xia Shengqing, how could he have come to this point.As for inquiring about the news, he had disregarded Xia Zijin's life and death on the battlefield before, and after returning to Beijing, he framed her in front of Ming Shengdi. The two of them were already life and death enemies.

Now it's good that Xia Zijin doesn't settle accounts with him. He still wants to get information out of Xia Zijin's mouth, and even blames a concubine for his fault after he fails. Call a coward.

Liu Xu felt that her scalp was about to be pulled off, and the burning pain came from the top of her head, which made her want to break Xia Qin's palm, but she didn't dare, she couldn't help crying, and begged for mercy .

Looking at her like this, Xia Tian became even more angry, and slapped her backhand, causing blood to fly from her mouth, and fell to the ground with her buttocks, a few of her teeth fell out, and half of her cheek quickly swollen.

Liu Xu is in the Prince's Mansion, relying on his own observation, although he is not particularly favored, he can still get some love from Xia Qin. There has never been a situation where Xia Qin was angered and beaten like today, and I heard Xia Qin mention Xia Zijin Name, naturally blame Xia Zijin for this incident.

She turned around quickly in her mind, and she understood why Xia Qin was angry. Although she was not angry in her heart, she still endured the pain and stood up. Your Highness has caused trouble, and it is not a pity to die, but before the death of this slave, there is one more thing I want to tell His Highness, maybe it will help His Highness."

Xia Qin was originally very impatient to listen to her, but now when she heard her say this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward and grabbed her shoulder, "What are you talking about? What can I do, tell me quickly?"

Liu Xu frowned involuntarily, endured the pain from her shoulders, and said slowly: "Prince, Princess Mingzhu is indeed deeply loved by the emperor, but you were so stiff when you had a fight with Princess Mingzhu before, I'm afraid she was already in the bottom of her heart. To hold grudges, instead of trying to curry favor with him, His Highness, it is better to choose another person, in this palace, she is not the only one who is favored."

"Change someone?" Xia Qin unconsciously let go of his hand, took a step back, sat on the chair, his eyes flickered, and after a while, he suddenly raised his head, "You mean Concubine Lian?"

"Yes." Liu Xu's eyes were full of honey, "Your Highness, although you have a powerful family, but Defei Empress..."

Speaking of this, she couldn't help taking out her handkerchief to wipe away her tears. Seeing that the play was almost done, she raised her head and looked at Xia Qin with red eyes, "In this palace, the concubine Lian is the most favored, even the empress is the most favored. Nothing compares. The emperor has always been suspicious, but he brought Concubine Lian to the court, which shows the emperor's love for Concubine Lian. If His Highness can get Concubine Lian's help, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

"But why did she help the prince?" Xia Qin listened to her and nodded uncontrollably, but his face collapsed in an instant.

He had seen Yue Jing'an and Xia Zijin walking very close to each other before, so they must have a good relationship, so why did Concubine Lian turn to help him.Xia Tian stared at Liu Xu closely, waiting for her to give a reason.

Seeing that Xia Qin really listened to what she said, she couldn't help but took a deep breath, stabilized her mind, and continued: "Your Highness, have you forgotten that although Concubine Lian is favored, she has no heirs after all. Now that the emperor is old, If Concubine Lian wants to conceive a child again, it may be impossible. If the emperor dies in the future..."

"Bold! Who gave you the guts to curse the emperor like this." Xia Qin slapped the table, shouted sharply, and stared at her sharply.

Liu Xu's heart trembled, but she didn't have much fear. She was able to stay by Xia Qin's side for such a long time, relying on observing her words and demeanor. She didn't believe it. It is credible to think that the emperor will return to the west as soon as possible.

"However, what you said is also reasonable, but the matter is of great importance. The Crown Prince has to think carefully about it. You should go down first." Xia Tian frowned and waved her to go down.

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Liu Xu's lips, and she quickly suppressed it, got up and left.Waiting for her to disappear completely, Xia Qin frowned and clapped his hands, looked up at Qing Heyuan who came out from behind the screen, "What do you think of Liu's strategy just now?"

The Qingheyuan man stroked his beard and smiled sinisterly, "Very good."

The two looked at each other, and both laughed sinisterly.

Xia Zijin naturally didn't know that Xia Qin would be so angry because she couldn't hook up with her. She was on the way to the palace at the moment, after being detoxified, she would naturally go to see Emperor Ming, and express her feelings by the way. Before the daughter's admiration and gratitude to him.

By the way, she also wanted to go to Yue Jing'an's palace to see this former ally, and to find out whether this matter had anything to do with her.

When Ming Shengdi learned that Xia Zijin was asking for an audience, a smile appeared on his face, he put down the memorial in his hand, and asked Xiao Xiazi to bring her in.

As soon as Xia Zijin entered, he saw a bright yellow figure standing behind the bead curtain, kneeling down to salute.Seeing her ruddy complexion and her black hair returning to normal, Ming Shengdi immediately laughed, "Okay, Zijin, it's great that you're fine. It's not in vain that I value you so much."

Although it showed that the Holy Emperor didn't have much affection for this daughter, but Xia Zijin was in danger every time, all of which showed that she should not die, she is a person of great luck, so he is naturally caring.

Xia Zijin talked to him with a smile, and his words were playful from time to time, which made Ming Shengdi laugh. After a while, Xia Zijin got up to say goodbye, and turned to go in the direction of Yue Jing'an's bedroom.When Ming Shengdi heard that she was going to thank Yue Jing'an for saving her life, he felt relieved for a while, thinking that she was filial and would not stop her.

Yue Jing'an was lying on the bed, and the imperial physician was changing the dressing for the wound on her arm, when she saw the nanny push the door in, saying that Xia Zijin had come, she was so startled that she sat up all of a sudden, thinking that Xia Zijin knew it was her Instigate Yilian to poison her, and find her to settle the score.But in an instant, she came to her senses and sat back slowly. This matter was done in a covert manner, and Yilian was already dead, so there was no evidence for her death. Even if Xia Zijin really suspected her, she couldn't do anything to herself without evidence.

Seeing her cold expression, Zhang Yuanshou, who was hanging his head to bandage his wound, shuddered involuntarily, and hurriedly lowered his head.When Xia Zijin came in, she smelled blood and ointment. She subconsciously turned her head to look at Yue Jing'an, saluted, and then her eyes fell on her arm. She frowned a little bit, and some doubts flashed across her eyes.

Yue Jing'an looked up and saw her squinting her eyes in a daze, chuckled lightly, retracted her arms, and said with a smile, "Why is Princess Mingzhu coming to this palace when you have time?"

"Concubine Lian, this princess is here to thank her for saving her life." Xia Zijin withdrew her thoughts and turned to look at Xin'er, "Xin'er, bring the things here."

Xin'er, who had been standing behind her as a pillar, responded immediately, and took out a black box with a silver button from her sleeve.Yue Jing'an's eyes changed, and she immediately refused, "Princess Mingzhu, since this matter has been taken over by me, I naturally want to give you an explanation. As for the grace of saving my life, I have exaggerated it. Gong was once a grasshopper on a rope, so it is only right for Gong to help."

She spoke lightly, without the slightest change in the expression on her face, but there was a burst of anger in her heart, wishing to leave Xia Zijin's life directly in her own palace, so that she would not go back to confuse Xia Shengqing, and put her to death His son was confused like that.When she thought of Xia Shengqing breaking with herself because of Xia Zijin, she couldn't help but feel a killing intent in her heart.

Seeing that her expression was wrong, Mammy quickly touched her, Concubine Lian came to her senses, looked at Mammy calmly, forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, and took a sip from the teacup.

Xia Zijin was keenly aware of the difference in her mood just now, as well as the trace of hostility she had towards herself. Although it was fleeting, she still noticed it.She was puzzled in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, "Your Majesty, don't refuse in a hurry, just read it before talking."

Only then did Xin'er open the box and put it on the table, Mammy raised her eyes and stared for a while before saying: "This is..."

"Century-year-old ginseng." Xia Zijin said, "Concubine Lian was injured because of me, I'm afraid she might not like something else to give away. The princess happened to see this ginseng when I went to the pharmacy last time, so I bought it back. It just happens to be used by the empress. On top of that, this princess will send it here, your empress must not refuse, otherwise, this princess will feel very sorry."

Seeing her explaining her intentions, Yue Jing'an had a smile on her face, as if she was sincerely grateful, she couldn't help thinking of the embarrassment she had to take medicine, and she almost gritted her silver teeth in hatred.She took a deep breath, and forced a smile on the corner of her lips, "In that case, then I won't be polite to you, Mammy, just accept it."

Xia Zijin then pursed her lips and smiled, didn't stay any longer, got up to say goodbye, and left with Xin'er.

As soon as she left the palace, Xia Zijin's face sank. Seeing her ugly face, Xin'er couldn't help asking: "Princess, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

The wound on Concubine Lian's arm appeared in front of Xia Zijin's eyes, his eyes dimmed, and then he shook his head, "It's nothing, I hope this princess thought too much." Although she only saw it just now, she always felt that Concubine Lian's wound seemed to be wounded. There are some problems, the knife wound seems to be scratched by himself.

Back in the mansion, Xia Zijin waved Xin'er to go down.After waiting for her to push it out, Xia Zijin took out a dagger from his sleeve, slashed at the corner of the table, looked at the knife marks on it, and frowned a little bit.She gritted her teeth, and was about to cut her own hand, when the door was suddenly pushed open.
