Empress please be more ruthless

Chapter 3 The Queen Is Not Simple (1)
"Sure!" It turned out that he had already prepared.

"Your Majesty, please give me a sword of Shangfang, and send another thousand elite soldiers to go with me to relieve the disaster."

Song Qingtong was startled slightly, not knowing what he meant.

Shangguan Lianyue said: "Your Majesty, the breaking of the Yellow River's embankment is certainly a natural disaster, but this year's rainfall in the Yellow River area is only [-]% higher than in previous years. The imperial court spends two taels of money every year to repair the embankment. The embankment should be able to resist for a while. Vulnerable, I suspect that local officials are greedy for money and money, filling their own pockets."

Song Qingtong couldn't help nodding, he even thought of these!Glancing at the official in charge of drafting the decree, "Just draft the decree as Lord Guangling said."

It was already afternoon when the court was over, and when he returned to the bedroom, Song Qingtong was almost fainted from hunger, and the long lacquered table was covered with all kinds of dishes, which made him feel dazzled just by looking at it.

The four court ladies are serving vegetables, Song Qingtong is sitting on a carved lacquered wooden chair, now she can eat a whole cow, with a few chopsticks down, a bowl of rice is bottomed out, the palace maid hastily added more rice, Song Qingtong secretly rolled her eyes, she is human Not a cat!This bowl is too small, as big as a palm, and the rice served by the maid is pitifully small, it is not enough to eat at all, so I have to order more.

Thinking of this, she sighed aloud. It happened that a court lady was scooping up soup. She heard the sound of shaking her hands, and the soup splashed out. Song Qingtong looked up at her. She was seventeen or eighteen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. The cowardly palace maid who almost cried when Ming changed her clothes?
Song Qingtong's eyes rolled, she was always more accurate in seeing people, this palace girl had a loyal appearance, she was timid because she had never seen the world, and of course she was scared by her predecessor with this body.He waved his hands to the other court ladies, "You guys step back first, you, stay!" The plain finger pointed to the maid who was ladling the soup.

The maid was so frightened, her eyes were filled with fear, she stood there dumbfounded and forgot to speak, the other three maids gave her a mournful look, and silently left the hall.

"What's your name? Where do you live? Who else is there?"

The maid's lips trembled, and she replied, "Slave, my maidservant's name is Yu'er. She was born in the capital, her parents died when she was young, and she was sold into the palace by her uncle."

It turned out to be a poor man, and his voice couldn't help being much softer, "Yu'er, you should answer truthfully whatever I ask you, and I will reward you for a good answer."

"Yes." Yu'er replied timidly.

"Mr. Guangling..."

Song Qingtong just raised her head, but Yu'er's body shook suddenly, she knelt down on the ground with a plop, crying and said: "Your Majesty, this servant has no wrong thoughts about Lord Guangling, woo..."

Song Qingtong was taken aback by her, what was going on here, Yu'er kowtowed like a chick, she didn't want to die, according to my sisters, just yesterday, a court lady took an extra look at Lord Guangling, The queen was fine at the time, but she ordered someone to goug out the girl's eyes in private, it was so scary!

Song Qingtong was really annoyed, she really wanted to know what the empress had done before, she was still not doing well, and everyone was so frightened that their faces were ashes.

"Okay! Stop knocking!"

Yu'er was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground, not daring to move.

Song Qingtong suppressed her anger, what happened to her?No matter how angry you are, you shouldn't take it out on an innocent court lady, so she slowed down and said, "Yu'er, just say what you know. Forgive your innocence. Stand up and answer."

Yu'er tremblingly got up from the ground.

"Why is Shangguan Lianyue called Lord Guangling? Tell me everything you know about the relationship between him and me."

Yu'er cautiously took a peek at Song Qingtong, saw that she had a pleasant face, and felt a little relieved. Today is the first time she works beside the empress, replacing the court lady who had her eyes gouged out. Is the empress investigating her?

"Back, back to the emperor, the head of the Shangguan family is famous for his piano skills. The late emperor once heard him play Guangling San and praised his music as comparable to Ji Kang, so he was named Guangling Lord. A month ago, the emperor went out to play in the palace. When I met Lord Guangling playing the piano by chance, I never forgot it. However, Lord Guangling is indifferent by nature and doesn’t care about matters of men and women.”

Yu'er secretly wiped the sweat from her forehead. A month ago, the Queen's inauguration ceremony, who would have thought that no one could be found at the ceremony, the prime minister personally arrested the Queen, and punished a group of servants in a fit of anger.

"Go on!" It turned out that they hadn't known each other for long.

The beads of sweat on Yu'er's forehead became denser, why did the queen ask this?To say or not to say?Put your heart to rest, let's be honest, "Yesterday, Lord Guangling was entertaining guests and friends in Taoyuan. The emperor gave fine wine in public, and Lord Guangling had to drink it. In the evening, the effect of the medicine took effect. The emperor ordered someone to invite Lord Guangling to the palace to stay in Guangling. You slept through the night."

Yu'er's voice is getting smaller and smaller, the empress' complexion is so bad, I should have known better if I didn't say it, she also heard it from other court ladies, now it's spread all over the palace, don't kill her!

The corners of Song Qingtong's eyes twitched, and her eyelids twitched. When she woke up in the morning, she felt that her body was strange. She really had exercised!After a long time, it was the empress who put her hot face on someone's cold ass!He also drugged people!
Shangguan Lianyue was so humiliated, yet she could stand calmly in front of the person who insulted him, but she didn't see any flaws. She really dare not underestimate such a character!So he took the initiative to take on errands that no one else could hide from, just to delay the wedding?

At this time, the maid came in and said: "Your Majesty, the prime minister is waiting in Qinghe Palace, please take a shower and change your clothes."

What's happening here? "I see, step back." The maid retreated outside the hall.

Song Qingtong turned her head to look at Yu'er, and smiled slightly, "Yu'er, I happen to be short of a trustworthy girl by my side, and I like a tight-lipped girl."

Yu'er was very clever, and quickly swore: "This servant will never talk nonsense. In this life, this servant is the emperor's man, and his death is the emperor's ghost."

Song Qingtong nodded. After bathing and changing clothes, he boarded the dragon chariot. The dragon chariot stopped in front of a remote palace. hall.

The hall is spacious and transparent, smoke is rising from the auspicious beast incense burner, a tall and straight figure unexpectedly falls into the pupils, and Song Qingtong's heart beats wildly for no reason.

With his back to the door, Chu Tianmo stood in the center of the hall with his hands behind his back. At this time, he had changed from his court clothes and was wearing dark blue casual clothes.
