Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 80 Yue Jing'an's Strategy
Ming Shengdi supported his knees, his sharp eyes swept across Concubine Yue's excited face, and took a few deep glances.

Concubine Yue's heart jumped suddenly, but her face did not change, she still maintained an angry posture of being blinded by the maid of honor.After a long time, Ming Shengdi withdrew his gaze from her, looked at Rui'er who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "Did you do it?"

With tears in her eyes, Rui'er raised her head to meet the threat and coldness in Concubine Yue's eyes, her body trembled and took a breath, and she drooped her head limply.

"Back to the emperor, everything is done by the servants, it has nothing to do with the empress." Rui'er said hoarsely, with nothing but despair in her eyes.

"It was the servant who stole the seeds from the mother's storehouse and went out to entrust someone to grow medicines, and carried them with him for emergencies. Today, the servant seduced Xia Gonggong, but was rejected by Xia Gonggong, so he became angry and accused Xia Gonggong of obscenity."

Concubine Yue breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and bit her lips to look at Ming Shengdi, her eyes were shining brightly: "Your Majesty, you heard it too, it was Ruier who did it from the beginning to the end, and the concubine was also taken care of by her." Keeping it in the dark without knowing it, the concubine is innocent."

Now that the matter has come to an end, Xia Shengqing's mother and son can no longer pin the crime on Concubine Yue, otherwise they will be as suspicious as the Holy Emperor Ming, and they will doubt their intentions instead.

Ming Shengdi's face was sullen, although the doubts and suspicions in his heart were eliminated, once he was disturbed by this incident, his mood was already extremely bad.

"Stealing flower seeds, privately making aphrodisiacs, slandering and framing second-rank eunuchs. The three crimes are concurrent. If you procrastinate, you will be given a white silk." Ming Shengdi didn't even raise his head, so he dropped a sentence and got up and strode out. Temple gate.

"The emperor is driving!" Xiao Xiazi shouted, and followed closely.

Concubine Yue's eyes were still full of acting tears, but she put on a cold and poisonous face, staring at Yue Jing'an and Xia Shengqing fiercely.

"Your servant will leave." Xia Shengqing nodded and followed Luanjia with a smile on her lips.

Yue Jing blessed Fu's body and said: "My younger sister is also resigning, elder sister Yue, you should take a good rest and suppress your shock, don't let any nonsensical things appear in the palace."

After all, Yue Jing'an didn't care about Concubine Yue's extremely ugly face, and walked away.

Concubine Yue clenched her teeth and clenched her fists, and muttered angrily, "Yue Jing'an... Xia Shengqing... wait for me!"

In the inner hall of Yuehua Palace where the sandalwood smoke was curling up, Yue Jingan reached out and lit the last candle, put it in front of a Jade Avalokitesvara statue, folded her hands and bowed down.

"Guanzizai Bodhisattva, please bless the believers and children to do things smoothly and achieve a great cause. After the mission is completed, I will definitely build a golden body for the Bodhisattva, build a temple, and let the world worship."

Ever since Yue Jing'an showed her face in front of Ming Shengdi, she moved out of the Buddhist hall and lived in the Yuehua Palace bestowed by the emperor.She burns incense and prays every day, and the desire to restore the former dynasty in her heart has never been extinguished.

Xia Shengqing stood behind him, silent. If there was no important matter, Yue Jing'an would not let him come over. I am afraid that what happened today would make her feel unhappy.

"Cheng'er, do you still remember a word my mother taught you since I was a child?" After the noble concubine Yue finished worshiping the Bodhisattva, she turned around slowly, gathered the cloaks on both sides, and walked towards Xia Shengqing.

"Winner takes all, loser for Kou."

Xia Shengqing said without a trace of emotion in her eyes.

Yue Jing'an nodded, stroking the corner of her forehead with her slender and slightly cold hands, and brushing away the broken hair hanging in front of her eyes.

"Today, you won. But have you ever thought that you shouldn't be beaten by Shui Yanran's sticks? What would you do if your mother didn't bring Xia Zhong over there? She is a majestic concubine, It's easy to deal with a eunuch like you."

Xia Shengqing understood the meaning of her words, she was silent for a moment and said: "Mother, I will be careful."

"Will it work if you're careful?" Yue Jing'an lowered her voice and sighed, "Shui Yanran is not a woman to be provoked, if you help that girl Xia Zijin, you are in her way, so she will naturally come to deal with you. "

Yue Jing'an raised her hand to caress Xia Shengqing's tough side face, and said earnestly: "My mother thought that girl could help, but she didn't expect that girl to be soft-hearted and not able to accomplish things. Since she is useless, you Just don't focus on her wholeheartedly, if it threatens you, don't bother with her anymore, do you understand?"

Xia Shengqing didn't answer, just stood there silently, Yue Jing'an saw his reluctance, felt annoyed in her heart, threw off her sleeves and said, "If that girl keeps being so useless, why don't you still have to do everything?" Are you protecting her? Don't forget, you are the prince of our Jinlai Dynasty, and your revenge has not been avenged, how can you have such an affair?"

"Mother, I won't leave the princess alone." Xia Shengqing said with lowered eyes, full of determination and responsibility.

"If you want to protect her so much, one day you will put yourself in!" Yue Jingan snorted.

"The son is willing."

"You...!" Yue Jing'an was so angry that she slapped Xia Shengqing on the face, pointing at him for a long time but was speechless.

Xia Shengqing looked at Yue Jing'an quietly, raised her drooping forehead, and looked at her. The right cheek that was slapped by Yue Jing'an was slightly red.

Yue Jing'an looked at such a stubborn son, lowered her hand angrily, sighed, shook her head and said: "Forget it, I guess you are also the first love, you have moved your heart, and you know what you can't do, so you will protect yourself wisely! Otherwise, you will regret it in the long run day!"

After finishing speaking, Yue Jing'an tried her best to suppress the unhappiness in her heart, exhaled from her nose, and said, "Do something for my mother."

Yue Jing'an took out a piece of old slightly curled yellow rice paper from her sleeve, and handed it to Xia Shengqing.He unfolded it and saw the names of medicines densely written on the rice paper.

Ripe pockmark, fenxu grass, plantain, snake letter...

Xia Shengqing frowned and looked at the several medicines inside, and couldn't help but wonder: "What kind of medicine is this? It's so strong."

Yue Jing'an laughed, and said slowly: "This is a poison prescription. Although it is used violently, it kills people slowly. It is used together with tea soup, and a little bit of medicine is given every day. The toxin will invade the internal organs and eventually die. "

"Who is this medicine going to be used on?" Xia Shengqing asked in confusion. Poisoning is not a trivial matter. A good dose can kill people invisible, but if something goes wrong and something happens, it will also cause fire.

Could it be that Yue Jing'an couldn't wait for Ming Shengdi to die and wanted to prescribe him medicine?
Xia Shengqing was shocked in her heart, she just felt that it was wrong, Ming Shengdi was able to seek to usurp the throne, how could it be such a simple person, I am afraid that poisoning would not work at all.

Yue Jing'an saw Xia Shengqing's suspicion, shook her head and said, "Don't think too much, being a mother is not for the dog emperor, his life is to be saved in honor of your father, how can he die so easily."

She laughed, and looked at the flickering candles on the incense stand, the red candles reflected in her eyes.

"After today's incident, Shui Yanran has suffered a lot and lost a confidant. She will definitely hide her strength and bide her time. And this period of time is a good opportunity for us to deal with her."

Xia Shengqing put the prescription back into her arms and said: "If you poison the noble concubine Yue, the risk is not small. She will use silver chopsticks to test the poison every day before eating. This prescription is not small. was detected."

"Who said that Shui Yanran was going to be poisoned." Yue Jing'an twisted her handkerchief and smiled, "This poison was for my mother."

Xia Shengqing looked up in confusion, knowing nothing about Yue Jingan's intentions, and only heard her say: "Take this medicine every day, within three days, you will have chest tightness and shortness of breath, and after five days, you will cough up blood, vomit, For another five days, I will be bedridden, and the oil will gradually run out."

"As long as I take the poison and arrange a bunch of incriminating evidence in the Yikun Palace in advance, she won't be able to argue with it, and she will definitely be unable to fly."

Xia Shengqing shook her head and said, "No, it's too risky, the poison will penetrate deep into the bone marrow, how can you use your mother's body as bait in order to frame Shui Yan?"

Yue Jing'an smiled, and took out another prescription from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Xia Shengqing. Although this prescription was expensive, it was not a poisonous prescription. On closer inspection, it looked more like cartilage. The prescription of medicinal effect.

"Naturally, Wei Niang won't pay herself to fight Shui Yanran. The previous prescription was used to make poison and put it in Yikun Palace as a criminal evidence. Now this prescription is for Wei Niang. This prescription was made The medicine is not toxic, but it still makes people feel uncomfortable, and the symptoms are the same as the poison just now, and the imperial physician can also detect the blocked meridians when taking the pulse, so it can be said that the fake can be confused with the real one."

"So that's how it is." Xia Shengqing finally felt relieved, and hid the two prescriptions against her chest.

"This strategy is very important, so don't take it lightly." Yue Jingan patted Xia Shengqing's hand sign earnestly, her eyes serious.

"My son knows."

Yue Jing'an nodded and smiled with satisfaction. Unidentified emotions flowed in her pupils, which were as calm as water.

On February [-], the dragon looked up.

The extreme cold in midwinter has passed, and the Qi wind blows the earth in spring, and the people also took off their heavy cotton clothes and started the new year's farming.

The palace was full of prosperity. Each palace received a new month's rules from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. At noon, Lichun passed in their own palaces. Dinner was still held in the banquet hall of Qianqing Palace. The princess of the harem He and the ladies, as well as the princes and grandchildren, were present, and even the queen mother, who seldom stepped out of the Shoukang Palace, also arrived.

Ming Shengdi is in a good mood today. In the early morning, he just heard from the Prime Minister that the results of this year's martial arts spring examination in several provinces are quite impressive. Soldiers are the foundation of an imperial court. If there is strong fresh blood injected into the imperial court, it can be called It is a blessing for the country.

"Everyone, drink this cup to the brim!" Ming Shengdi raised the gold-plated jade-inlaid Double Dragon Playing Pearl Cup, and raised it to everyone in the hall.

Everyone greeted each other with a toast, and everyone had a smile on their faces, but it was impossible to tell whether it was true or not.

Xia Zijin sat on the seat, toasted with everyone to invite Ming Shengdi, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was in his eyes.She lowered her eyes to look at the clear wine in Beizhong, shook it, and swallowed it down her throat.

Only the lord of the first palace can be seated at the banquet, and the maids of honor will serve and refill the wine behind her.Xiaokui knelt behind Xia Zijin, looked to the side, but saw a familiar figure.
