Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

A conscious person feels heavier than an unconscious person.

Chapter 58 plan?

Qin Ji never expected that he could be drugged by the Queen Mother.

In the palace, some people wanted to kill him, but precisely because it was in the palace, such means of poisoning were not suitable.After all, as a minister, he seldom lives in the palace on weekdays, and once he entered the palace, something happened "due to illness". As long as he had a little brain, he would suspect that the royal family had done something shameful.

It was precisely because of this that he relaxed his vigilance a little bit. After all, no one would have thought that someone would really dare to poison a foreign minister in the palace.Moreover, Qin Ji still had many followers in the court. If the poisoning was really exposed, the court would be in chaos.

However, when he picked up the cup of tea, he felt that the taste was not particularly right.

In fact, the taste was very faint, but Qin Ji always felt that something was wrong, so he just took a sip and tasted it, and he found out what the queen mother was doing in it.

Having said that, the queen mother is really not afraid of killing a captain of a country with medicine. In my impression, this thing seems to be an anesthetic specially given to livestock.

These intakes are not enough to make Qin Ji fall down, but Qin Ji still cooperates with them, so that he can know what these people want to do, and by the way, he circulates the spiritual energy in his body, so that the little bit in his body makes him feel better. The anesthetic that made him drowsy was completely removed.

In the darkness, he felt that he was carried to Xia Yuxiao's bedroom—in order to avoid being discovered, he didn't open his eyes the whole time, and he could feel that this was His Majesty's bedroom, purely because he came here so many times. He is more familiar with the smell inside.

"Quick, put people here."

"You are......"

"We are servants of the Empress Dowager. We are here to handle errands under the order of the Empress Dowager. As usual, you should pretend that you didn't see it. Where is Chief Envoy Song?"

It was one of the Empress Dowager's maids who spoke. After she spoke, the other party seemed afraid to pursue it any further.

"Your Excellency has something to go out temporarily, and I'm not here for the time being..."

"That's better," said the maid, and then Qin Ji heard the rustling of paper, "This letter was sent by the Queen Mother to the Chief Envoy. Come back, let her read this letter first, so that the adults will not blame you."

"This......"

"If there is any responsibility, the Queen Mother will take responsibility."

"Yes."

Seeing that the other party had already talked about this, the dragon guards and maids didn't say much.

Your Majesty is certainly important, but the Queen Mother's words are also very important. Your Majesty cares about his mother very much.

As for the matter between the Queen Mother and His Majesty, it is not easy for them to talk about it as servants, and they have not threatened the safety of His Majesty, so let these people do it first.

Qin Ji felt that his body was being moved, and then he was placed on a soft bed. The person who carried him was obviously very careful, and his movements were very light, as if he was afraid of waking him up.

But he quickly realized that the maid's hands were so soft, not because she was afraid of waking him up, but because she was afraid of waking up the people lying beside him.

Qin Ji suddenly broke out in cold sweat.

what does this mean?

This is Xia Yuxiao's bedroom. Put him on the bed, and there is someone lying beside him. Who is that person... He can guess it with his toes.

What does the Queen Mother want to do?Frame yourself?But if you really made up your mind to get rid of yourself, you can just lay an ambush or use strong medicine when drinking tea just now. Although the cost afterwards is high, this is indeed the best chance to kill him.

But now?No matter how you look at this posture, it doesn't look like you want to get rid of him. If it is to shame Xia Yuxiao and find a reason to deal with him...but any normal person knows that this method will not work. A large part of it was in his own hands, and he refused to admit it to death, and they had nothing to do with him.

Kill two birds with one stone?In order to tarnish Xia Yuxiao's reputation and find an excuse to get rid of him by the way?This is possible, but... this also means that Xia Yuxiao and him will be provoked at the same time. If everything goes well, it will kill two birds with one stone, but if anything goes wrong, you will face the dual power of imperial power and military power. Flank.

In short, doing this kind of thing at this time, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to achieve the goal safely and completely, and there are too many variables.

Fortunately, Qin Ji felt that Xia Yuxiao beside her didn't seem to wake up. She was emitting a slight heat, and her breathing was slow and even. It seemed that she chose to rest because of illness.

At least for now, Xia Yuxiao won't find someone lying beside her in a short time.

Of course, he was lying there upright on his back, and his hands were still placed on his sides naturally, but he was still complained by the maids.

"Just this pose? Is that okay?"

"I figured it should be fine."

"It's too rigid to lie down, just like being encoffined. Doesn't this look decent?"

"Why don't you show it?"

"Well, swing!"

Just do it, two maids stepped forward, and gently took his arm.

"Hey, take it easy! What if you wake up?!"

"It's okay, the queen mother said, this thing is used to numb buffaloes, ordinary people can't wake up for two days after drinking it, the Taiwei's physical fitness is strong, it won't last two days, but at least one night's sleep."

"The queen mother is not afraid of drinking dead people?"

"Tch, don't you even look at who this guy is. He has been alive and kicking no matter how many times he has been stabbed in the battlefield before. What is this little anesthetic... okay!"

It has to be said that these two maids understood very well. They turned his body sideways, facing Xia Yuxiao's side, then curled up one of his legs, and pulled his right arm over to put Xia Yuxiao on it. on the waist.

In this way, there is no way to argue. In this state, if you say that the two of you have nothing, you will not believe it.

From Qin Ji's arm came the soft touch of the girl's waist, as well as the warm body temperature, which immediately made him a little overwhelmed.

In fact, it's not that Lingyan has had physical contact with him a lot, and he's used to it, but the identity of the person in front of him is a bit special - he is his monarch, and he knows that this is a game.

Under such circumstances, it is a bit inexplicably immoral to do such a thing to your majesty, or to be "forced" to do such a thing by others.

To put it bluntly, it is a very pleasant behavior.

"Okay, we should go too. Please, sisters. When Chief Envoy Song comes back later, he must ask Chief Envoy Song to read the letter first—the Queen Mother personally explained it. Don't make an impulsive and direct speech at that time. It’s not good to cut people down.”

The maid said this calmly, but Qin Ji couldn't help but get excited. Fortunately, the maids didn't pay attention.

After thinking about it carefully, don't say it, Mr. Song really wants to see the scene in front of him, maybe he will give him a knife first.

Chapter 59 Sleep Like a Baby

The queen mother's maids left, only the dragon guards and maids who were originally in Xia Yuxiao's bedroom remained in the room.

Everyone was silent for a long time, not knowing how to deal with this matter.

"How about this, you guys watch by the side, we'll wait outside for the Chief Envoy, let her read the letter before entering the house, otherwise I always feel that if she comes in first, we might not be able to stop her..."

Regarding his immediate boss, the Dragon Guards are very clear that Song Jingqing is very powerful in combat, is also good at commanding operations (small scale), and has high intelligence.

But there is also a gap between high IQs. Some people have high IQs, but they may not be able to maintain their sanity when the person they are loyal to is sleeping.

Therefore, we must first let the cleverness and rationality occupy the high ground, so as to avoid accidents.

"Ok."

They were discussing countermeasures at the side, but at this time, Qin Ji started a brainstorming.

He roughly knew what medicine was sold in the Queen Mother's gourd.

Although I am not sure, it can be roughly guessed that the queen mother wants to help Xia Yuxiao. There is indeed truth in what she said to herself before. There are probably some things that Xia Yuxiao should do better, but she can't let go. made.

For example, this matter now.

And the queen mother is the one who pushes at the critical moment.

And what is there that Xia Yuxiao doesn't want to do, but must do, and the Queen Mother needs to put him on Xia Yuxiao's bed?

Qin Ji didn't dare to think about it.

Thinking about it this way, my best way to deal with it is actually very simple: find a way to wait for those maids and dragon guards to leave, then wake up and leave here by myself, so that the other party can't find any evidence, anyway, Xia Yuxiao didn't wake up , wouldn't it be beautiful.

It was perfectly thought out.

Unfortunately, Qin Ji soon discovered that this would not work at all.

These guys have been guarding Xia Yuxiao's side every step of the way!What should I do?

You can't directly open your eyes to moisten it, otherwise you will only be caught by the guards, and the blame will still be on his head.

Then you can only close your eyes and continue to wait.

Thinking of this, Qin Ji continued to pretend to be asleep.

However, as we all know, most people have a defect, that is, sometimes they pretend to be asleep, and they really fall asleep after pretending to be pretending.

Qin Ji had already tried his best to keep himself awake, but the mental tension brought about by regular work and the quaint and peaceful atmosphere of the whole bedroom, coupled with the warmth and softness of the bed from his arms, made it almost impossible for him to resist this Feeling tired.What's more, he still has his eyes closed.

He didn't dare to use spells to wake himself up, because the gang of dragon guards outside might notice it.In this kind of situation where the light is relying on its own will, and the eyes are still closed, it is simply difficult for others to hold back sleep.

That's not the hardest part.

The most difficult thing is, I don't know if it's because she subconsciously looks for something to hold in her sleep or for some other reason, Xia Yuxiao leans towards Qin Ji while raving in her sleep.

Your Majesty, absolutely not!

Qin Ji really wanted to yell like this, but obviously he couldn't yell at this time. He wanted to "bear the burden of humiliation" and sneak out when the maids and dragon guards left or changed guards. He couldn't expose himself yet. The fact that has woken up.

The girl's soft side pressed against his chest. Although the scale was small, it was enough to cause him damage. The warmth on her body carried a scent that made her dizzy even more. Then, those pure white arms wrapped around her like this. on his neck.

She hugged him like this before when he rescued him, but at that time it was a critical moment, he didn't have the leisure to care about how he felt, not to mention that Xia Yuxiao hugged her so hard because of her survival instinct that she almost missed her. His waist was strangled, so he didn't feel well.

However, the feeling this time is real. The most terrible thing is that at this moment, he is pretending to sleep with his eyes closed. There is no other way to divide his mind, and he is almost completely focused on the feeling from his body. superior.

Wenxiang nephrite is in her arms, the bed is soft, the quilt is soft, and the person is soft. Facing such an environment, the heart that has been tense subconsciously relaxes, and a feeling of exhaustion comes to my heart.

Pretend to be asleep, but in the end it still didn't work.

.......................................

In the early morning, there is a glow in the east.

The morning sun shines in from the exquisitely carved windows, and everything in the house becomes brighter under the reflection of the sun.

Xia Yuxiao slowly opened her eyes.

Facts have proved that the method of drug fumigation is indeed very good. Now her symptoms are almost completely cured. The moment she opened her eyes, the clear mental state alone was enough to ignite her enthusiasm.

However, the moment she fully opened her eyes and saw the face in front of her clearly, she gasped for breath.

A heart suddenly raised her throat. It was a face that had appeared in a nightmare. Although she knew that the owner of this face would not do that in reality, it was enough to leave a bad memory for her. .

But now, that face was right in front of her, and it was very close!

She resisted the instinct to cry out—because she realized a very serious problem: it was scary that this face was so close, but what was even scarier was... She remembered that this was her bedroom !

She took a closer look at the situation.

The guy in front of her was still sleeping soundly. He seemed less aggressive when he was asleep than when he was awake, and seemed to have softened a lot. Then, she felt her arms around the other's neck.
