Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 456 Murder

Ming Shengdi was extremely annoyed at Xia Zijin's act of taking Xia Qixuan out of the city privately, but his imperial decree had been promulgated, allowing her to act in plain clothes, so that it was not easy for him to order to reprimand Xia Zijin.

Seeing Xia Shengqing approaching now, this unknown fire is about to break out. In Ming Shengdi's impression, whoever called Xia Shengqing is Xia Zijin's husband, and Xia Zijin ran away, he will take her to bear his anger as a matter of course, he can't Let him be suffocated here by himself.

"Why is Aiqing here at this time? Didn't I tell you? Don't bother me if you have nothing to do these few days." Ming Shengdi naturally couldn't show his careless thoughts of making trouble for no reason, and deliberately found a way to make trouble.

Xia Shengqing looked at Ming Shengdi who was angry for no reason in front of him, and took out a sealed letter from his large sleeve robe, "Before the princess left, I specially asked my minister to hand over this letter to the emperor after she left, and please the emperor Take a look."

So he didn't come to bother him for nothing, Ming Shengdi choked on him, moved his mouth, swallowed the words in his mouth again, looked at him for a long time, snorted coldly, and asked the eunuch to fetch the letter , opened it in front of Xia Shengqing.

Just after reading two lines, Ming Shengdi's anger dissipated, and he turned to look at Xia Shengqing with a smile, "Zijin was in Mobei before, and it was freezing all the way, I really wronged her, if you are worried, You might as well go there together, but there is still something to keep you busy in this capital, so you can suppress the worries in your heart and keep it."

Xia Shengqing was baffled by what he said, and was stunned. This expression fell into Ming Shengdi's eyes, and he really thought that he wanted to go to Mobei with Xia Zijin for disaster relief. The suspicion in his eyes was dispelled, and he twirled his beard and smiled. looking at him.

"I obey the order." Although Xia Shengqing didn't know what Xia Zijin wrote in the letter, it must have been for him.Thinking of this, Xia Shengqing couldn't help feeling warm all over.

In Concubine Xin Palace, Qinglian was half leaning on the soft couch, her whole body was held by the man, unable to move, anger flashed in her charming eyes, "What is your son doing here again?"

"Of course there is something urgent." The man is handsome and handsome, but the words he uttered make people shudder. He stroked Qinglian's cheek with his fingers, lowered his head, took a sip of her red lips, and looked at her in embarrassment like a joke. With a desperate expression, his fingers deliberately grazed her exposed collarbone.

Qinglian's body trembled for a while, she gritted her teeth and reminded him, "Your Majesty, the Emperor will come to my place later, you are still staying here, aren't you afraid of being seen?"

Ming Shengdi is the most taboo of concubines in the harem to meet foreign officials. The most important thing is that she is just a small palace maid without a mother. If Ming Shengdi sees the person in front of her pestering her, she will definitely be the one who sacrificed in the end.

Thinking of this, Qinglian clenched her fists involuntarily. She was not afraid of death, but now that her revenge has not been avenged, it would be too unworthy to die like this.Qinglian exhaled a turbid breath, a cold light appeared in her eyes, she stared at the man firmly, and warned him to get off her body, otherwise she would be impolite.

The person who was born to be threatened didn't realize it at all, insisted on hugging her, and stayed with her on the brocade couch, with the corners of his lips curled up, looking at her pretending to be gentle, it was really annoying.

After a long while, Qinglian lowered her eyes and sighed resignedly, "My lord, please go back first."

"Kneel down and beg my son." The man saw that she put away the spikes all over her body, touched her chin with her fingers, forced her to look up at him, moved her mouth twice, and smashed her self-esteem to pieces.

Qinglian's body froze, and she slowly climbed down from the brocade couch, then turned her head and knelt at his feet, clutching his trousers, with a humble expression, "Qinglian begs my son."

Seeing that her face was calm and she didn't see the grief and indignation just now, the man smiled and pinched her chin, "Yes, that's the expression, Qinglian, you have to remember clearly, it was my son who took you from the mass grave back then." Picked it up, if you don't obey me obediently, this son has plenty of ways to send you back."

Waves of chills invaded the soles of her feet, and the severe pain from her chin caused her to change color slightly. Knowing that what this person said was not a lie, she raised her head politely, and said expressionlessly, "Qinglian clear."

"It's good that you understand, this is the mission this time, you remember it well, I want you to let Xia Zijin die in Mobei. As for what to do, it's up to you, this skin, don't waste it. "The man's tone was full of sarcasm, but when he talked about Xia Zijin, there was a chill in his words.

Qinglian lowered her eyes, her mouth twitched in sarcasm, her palms in her sleeves shook twice, she said sorry in her heart, opened her eyes again, and nodded to show that she knew.

Just as she was about to speak, the servant girl who had been guarding outside suddenly pushed open the door, "Your Majesty..."

Qinglian turned her head suddenly, and saw the maidservant's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief, she immediately shouted angrily, not daring to look at her face, "Get out soon?"

"Wait!" The man's voice sounded slowly from behind her, causing the hairs on her body to stand up in an instant, her body froze in place, and sweat oozes from her back.

The maid looked at the ambiguous posture of the two of them, and when she looked up, she saw the man's familiar face, opened her mouth wide, unable to utter a word, "You, you, you..."

It's a pity that she couldn't complete the sentence, the man narrowed his eyes and said impatiently: "Kill her."

In an understatement, a person's life was lost just like that. After breaking through such a thing, the servant girl's posture was infinitely terrified, and when she heard him say such words, her legs and feet gave way and she fell to the ground.

Qinglian took a deep breath, intending to intercede for her, but she dared not say anything. She stepped forward and looked at the maidservant with a complicated expression.The servant girl suddenly came to her senses, and hurriedly grabbed her trousers and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, this servant didn't do it on purpose, this servant didn't see anything, please spare this servant, please spare this servant!"

Seeing her crying tears, Qinglian raised her fingers to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked at her lovingly, the servant girl has always been favored by her, seeing her looking at her like this now, she felt hopeful in her heart.

It's a pity that before she was happy, there was a sharp pain in her abdomen. The expression on Xia Zijin's face instantly turned cold. Looking at her unbelievable eyes, the palm of the dagger was held hard again, and she patted her back with one hand. Hugging her tightly, "Go, after a while, I will come to compensate you and atone for your sins."

The maid opened her mouth, and reached out her hand to touch her abdomen, and saw blood on her hand. She glanced at Qinglian, and her palm fell to the ground, her head tilted, and she fell to the ground.

Outside, the high eunuch's sharp voice came in, Qinglian looked back at the visitor with red eyes, "Your Excellency, let's leave quickly."

After saying that, she let go of the dagger, kicked off the shoes on her feet, messed up her hair, and ran out quickly, "Your Majesty, help me! Your Majesty..."

Seeing her acting, the visitor unknowingly raised the corners of his lips and turned out of the half-open window.

After Ming Shengdi finished talking with Xia Shengqing, he came to her. Hearing her voice, he was just about to reach out to hug his beautiful girl, so that he could be intimate, when he smelled a smell of blood. The outstretched arm Retracted subconsciously.

However, he still didn't escape, Qinglian threw herself into his arms, put her head in his arms, and cried, "Your majesty, you are here, I almost thought I couldn't see you."

Ming Shengdi looked at her bright red hands and looked embarrassed again, frowned slightly, and then saw her delicate face, the displeasure in his heart disappeared in an instant, he helped her stand up in distress, and looked her up and down, " What's wrong with you?"

The tears in Qinglian's eyes suddenly flowed more fiercely, rolling down like beads with a broken thread, clutching his clothes tightly, trembling all over, pretending to be scared on purpose, as if Buy time for the people inside, "The concubine killed someone, the palace maid wanted to kill the concubine, the concubine was afraid, and snatched her dagger during the dispute, unexpectedly, it happened to be inserted into her abdomen, blood, a lot of blood, the emperor , I killed myself."

Ming Shengdi saw her shivering in his arms, and heard that she was assassinated, his nerves tensed immediately, he quickly looked her up and down, and he breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that she was not injured. For the dead maid, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Ming Shengdi's eyes, "This maid is so bold that she dared to assassinate you, death is not a pity, you don't have to be afraid."

Qinglian nodded, let him wipe away the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, sobbed and said, "Your Majesty, although she had hidden evil intentions, she was serving my concubine after all, and she just died like this. The concubine was restless, please ask the emperor Forgive her charges and ask the guards to bury her alive."

Seeing her looking at him eagerly, Ming Shengdi originally thought of dragging the maid out of the palace to make her ashes, so that all the maids in the palace could see the fate of the assassin, and immediately suppressed the idea, and sighed faintly, "Forget it, you have always been soft-tempered. If you are frightened this time, I will stick to you. If not, I'm afraid you will have nightmares in the future."

The big eunuch at the side immediately ordered the accompanying eunuch to go in and drag the corpse out. There was blood in the palace, Ming Shengdi couldn't go in for a while, lest he would be charged with blood.

So Ming Shengdi only glanced at the palace maid, put his arms around Qinglian, and coaxed her to sit on the dragon with him and go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Naturally, this news was not hidden from Yue Jing'an, when she learned that someone had assassinated Qinglian, she stood up from her seat in shock, turned her head and glared at Nanny, "Mommy, is this you?"

The nanny shook her head quickly, "Mother, this old slave has never attacked anyone else recently."

She never lied, so Yue Jing'an didn't doubt it, and relaxed her straight body again, leaning on the chair, with her fingers resting on the table, knocking again and again, and various thoughts turned in her mind.
