Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 225 The fire is here!
Seeing Shen Ninghua stunned, Baili Qingcang's eyes moved: "Ninghua, what's the matter, you seem to have something on your mind?"

Shen Ninghua immediately returned to her senses: "Reporting to Father, Ninghua is fine, just remembering seeing An Qing go out with a particularly haggard look, she was a little worried, Father, you also know that Sister An Qing has a slightly introverted personality. Yang Lin's passing hit her hard."

Baili Qingcang sat behind the case and shook his head slightly: "I'm afraid it's not because of Yang Lin's death that she looks like that."

Shen Ninghua's eyes trembled, thinking of the rumors that Baili Anning had told her before, her heart sank slightly, and she asked with a puzzled face, "Isn't it because of Yang Lin?"

"Well, Mr. Yang Ge has been here, please let me break the engagement between An Qing and Yang Lin."

"Mr. Yang Ge asks for orders...Father seems to have other plans?" Shen Ninghua asked tentatively.

Baili Qingcang's face darkened: "Well, I have some plans. Ninghua, what do you think of the queen?"

Hearing his sudden change of topic, Shen Ninghua's heart trembled suddenly, and the fingers placed by her side couldn't help moving: "Father, as a junior, Ninghua should not judge elders no matter what. But in my heart, Queen Mother He is very tolerant towards us, has a good reputation among the ministers in the court, and is also loved by the common people, and he has been favored by the emperor for many years, and the lord of the harem who has helped the emperor to assist the harem is naturally excellent."

Baili Qingcang's eyes turned cold: "Loved by the common people and supported by the officials, you are right. From this point of view, it is very good. Ninghua, I told you to investigate the matter of hiding drugs in the harem before. What you have investigated It should be a lot."

Poison in the harem?It's been a long time since this matter happened, so when I ask at this time... Could it be that the father has investigated other things?

"Father, you also know that this matter is deeply involved, and we are not qualified to investigate many facts. At that time, I found out about the head of the Internal Affairs Department and Mr. Wei, and stopped here and did not continue to investigate further. "

Shen Ninghua looked up at Baili Qingcang's expression carefully, and found that his expression softened after listening to what she said, and she was relieved immediately, thankful that she didn't beat around the bush when she spoke just now.

Baili Qingcang nodded: "Ninghua, I will secretly entrust you with one more thing now."

"Please instruct the emperor."

"I want to investigate the queen, you help me collect evidence."

Shen Ninghua raised her eyes in shock: "Father, you want to investigate the queen?"

Baili Qingcang's face was deep, and a faint cold light flashed: "Not only do I want to investigate the queen, I also want to bring down the Zhao family!"

Hearing this, Shen Ninghua only felt a chill behind her back: "Take down the Zhao family? Father, where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

The queen is the prince's biological mother, and the Zhao family is the prince's mother family. If the Zhao family falls, it will be tantamount to cutting off half of the prince's sky. By then, the court will not be turned upside down?
Baili Qingcang frowned: "The prince is a good one, and he is also my own son. It is enough to have me as a backer." He still has a good impression of the prince, but the Zhao family is too powerful. , then the mother's family will definitely become a disaster, so it must not be tolerated!

Shen Ninghua felt chills in her heart, she could almost imagine the violent winds and waves in the future, the emperor thought well, but the crown prince might not think so.

Nowadays, the princes have not yet quarreled to the point of killing each other for power and profit. That is because the Zhao family is strong and the prince's status is stable. The princes dare to make small moves in private, but they dare not fight in the open , if the backer behind the prince falls, it will be equivalent to having his wings cut off, and then he will not know what the consequences will be.

Shen Ninghua was silent, not knowing how to answer.

Baili Qingcang suppressed the tyranny in his heart, and his face softened a little: "Ninghua, father knows that you are capable, and also knows that the queen has repeatedly intended to harm you, so I entrust this matter to you, don't worry, you Just be responsible for collecting evidence, don't rush into it, it doesn't matter if it takes longer, you must keep it secret, and don't let the Zhao family know."

"Yes, Erchen understands."

"Well, now that I'm dragging An Qing's marriage contract, I want to make the harem turbulent. Just look at the queen and see how she will make a move!"

"Yes."

In Ningkun Palace, Zhao Huiying looked a little lazy as she looked at the newly dyed nails with Danko.

Fangxue waved a little eunuch at the gate of the palace to go away, and quickly walked into the palace: "Your Majesty, Princess Zhaohua stayed in the South Study Room for about an hour before she came out."

Zhao Huiying raised her eyebrows: "One hour, hehe, it seems that our emperor didn't know what to tell Shen Ninghua?"

Fang Xue pursed her lips: "The emperor backed away from the left and right, our people couldn't find out, but Shen Ninghua's face was normal when she came out, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

"You look as usual?" Zhao Huiying sneered, "Shen Ninghua is as scheming as a vixen, and she can see what's wrong with those eyeliners. Now she and Chu Junyi are the most popular people in front of the emperor. The emperor| regards them as Confidant, protecting and pampering like eyeballs, let our people restrain their hands and feet recently, maybe the emperor is asking them to check us now."

Fangxue nodded: "Yes, empress, don't worry, the servant has already ordered it to go on, and nothing will happen."

Zhao Huiying carefully put on the sapphire-blue armor, raised her hand to appreciate it for a moment, and asked, "Where is Baili Anqing, do you want to eat or drink now?"

"Yes, I heard that I haven't eaten for almost three days."

"Hehe, it seems that it is not completely useless, let's go, let's go and see this poor princess."

Baili Anqing's palace is located in a relatively remote location. There are pines and cypresses mixed with a few plum blossoms in the courtyard. The pines and cypresses are dark green. At first glance, they look like black. Once you enter the door, you will feel a cold feeling.

Zhao Huiying entered the door frowning, and just raised her eyes when she saw a white shadow rushing towards her, she was so startled that her heart trembled suddenly.

Fang Xue stepped forward to block Zhao Huiying, and yelled coldly at Baili Anqing: "Princess Anqing, how could you be so rude, what should you do if you offended the empress?"

Zhao Huiying took a closer look, only to realize that the person who rushed over was Baili Anqing.

She was only wearing a thin white shirt, and she was so thin that she lost her shape: "Mother, the son is guilty, please punish the mother."

A flash of disgust flashed in Zhao Huiying's eyes, but she bent down patiently and helped her up: "Anqing, what are you doing? You servants are just watching the master abuse your body like this. Let your master wear such thin clothes?"

The maids around were already kneeling, and when they heard this, they wished they could fall to the ground: "I beg your forgiveness, please forgive me."

Zhao Huiying turned her head and ordered coldly to the nanny who was following behind her: "Pull all these people down, and give them [-] sticks, so as to serve as an example to others!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Seeing the maids around her being dragged down with their mouths covered, the anger in Zhao Huiying's heart finally subsided a little: "Anqing, if you have anything to say, the queen mother will naturally make decisions for you, why bother yourself like this?"

Baili Anqing trembled like a leaf falling in the wind, knelt on the ground and raised his head, a pair of pale hands firmly grasped Zhao Huiying's skirt: "Mother, only you can help me, I beg my mother to save my son."

"If you have anything to say, just say it. If the queen mother can make the decision, she will naturally make the decision for you."

"Empress Mother, Emperor Father wants to marry me to a dead man!"

Zhao Huiying frowned: "Nonsense, you are the emperor's own daughter, how could the emperor do this?"

"Really." Baili Anqing bit his lips, "Father summoned me today and said that he would not dissolve my engagement with the Yang family. Empress, I don't want to marry a dead person, I don't want it!"

"The emperor actually said that..." Zhao Huiying sighed, looking at Baili Anqing with pity, "Anqing, the queen mother can't do anything..."

Seeing her expression, Baili Anqing screamed and his expression collapsed. Every day, the wind and cranes swayed, and Zhao Huiying's eyes pressed down on her heart like a mountain, crushing her last hope: "Mother, please!" Help me, as long as I don't marry a dead man, I'm willing to do anything."

The corners of Zhao Huiying's lips twitched sharply: "Okay, you child, how can the queen mother ignore you, get up. Fangxue, come and help Princess Anqing clean up. The princess of my Da'an country can't be so embarrassed and shabby."

After tidying up, Baili Anqing regained some energy, but her expression was still terrified, for fear that Zhao Huiying would ignore her again: "Queen, what should I do?"

Zhao Huiying lowered her eyes slightly: "Anqing, you should also be clear that once the emperor makes a decision, he will not change it easily, so this matter must be changed before the emperor makes a decree."

"Yes, the queen mother is right."

"But you also know that the princess's marriage is not a trivial matter. Logically speaking, no one except the emperor has the right to decide on his own."

"Yes, mother, what should I do then?"

"Have you ever heard of Princess Liulan?"

Baili Anning was taken aback: "Princess Liulan, the queen mother said that Princess Liulan robbed her sister's son-in-law?"

Zhao Huiying smiled: "It is rumored that Princess Liulan robbed Princess Liuqin's son-in-law, saying that she is selfish and has no regard for sisterhood, but if she hadn't done that at the beginning, she might have been married and married in a barbaric place long ago. , lost his life."

Baili Aning and Anqing's expression shook violently: "The queen mother wants me to imitate Princess Liulan?"

The smile on Zhao Huiying's lips became more and more obvious: "An Qing, the queen mother is also a woman, so she naturally understands your thoughts. Although Princess An Ning's son-in-law is not good enough, she has a deep love for An Ning. Although she has only been married for a few days, it can be seen that, From now on, the two will live in harmony, love and happiness."

Baili Anqing nodded silently.

Zhao Huiying continued: "Princess Zhaohua and her son-in-law are even more enviable. Before getting married, Chu Junyi was able to sacrifice his life for Ninghua, and the two of them received the emperor's blessing under the joy of both. Married, living a sweet life, that is something that even the gods would not envy. What's more, Chu Junyi has a handsome appearance, outstanding martial arts, and is the imperial censor of the left capital bestowed by the emperor himself. He can be said to be a young dignitary. Princess Zhaohua is even more devoted and unswerving in her determination."

Baili Anqing bit her lip tightly, the jealousy in her eyes almost overflowed.

Zhao Huiying narrowed her eyes, and said in her heart: The fire is here.
