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

And the legs on the other side!

Unlike many girls who found a man lying on the bed, she didn't cover her chest and scream, but responded quickly:

Let go, sit up, lift up a corner of the quilt, look down at your whole body, all in one go.

Then she breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at the people in the room. There are only two maids in the room, one is sleeping and the other is also sleeping—it’s nothing, the dragon guards outside are on duty , will ensure her safety, and the maid in the house has been specially told before that she can sleep next to her at night if she has nothing to do, since she basically sleeps until dawn anyway.

Xia Yuxiao tidied up her nightdress, turned her head to look at Qin Ji, although Qin Ji said that she had taken off her coat and was bare upper body, but according to the inspection of herself just now, this guy probably didn't do anything.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down, tiptoed out of bed, found her usual clothes, put them on and tidied them up.Then I combed my hair, and at the same time examined my demeanor, trying not to expose any abnormalities as much as possible.

Immediately afterwards, instead of waking Qin Ji up, she sat at the table next to her and sorted out her thoughts carefully.

It looks like someone wants to frame me!

Chapter 60 The icing on the cake

Xia Yuxiao thought about it carefully.

Obviously, even if Qin Ji had the courage, he would not be so courageous.Perhaps in the eyes of the ministers in the court, Qin Ji can do this kind of thing, but Xia Yuxiao still knows Qin Ji to a certain extent. Although he is not so upright, he has not yet reached this level. A degree of overstepping the ritual system for no reason.

At least, there is no benefit for him to do such a thing now-except to take advantage of himself.

Since he doesn't have any vested interests, there is no need to do this, then the only one who dares to send someone here under the eyes of the dragon guards and the maids is...

Thinking of this, she got up and pushed open the door of her room.

Song Jingqing was standing at the door.

"His Majesty."

Song Jingqing lowered her head, as if she was waiting for her punishment.

"Please come here, Queen Mother, just say what I mean."

Xia Yuxiao said.

"Hey? Your Majesty, do you know?"

"Except for the queen mother, how many people dare to do this? The people in Tianshi's mansion are at most just annoyed."

Xia Yuxiao said with a gloomy face.

To be honest, her own mother really made her feel very upset when she did this to her.But Xia Yuxiao also had to admit that such an approach was indeed effective.At least for Xia Yuxiao, it was indeed possible to force her to make a "decision".

However, she doesn't like the feeling of being calculated by others, not even her own mother.Of course she would not do anything excessive to her mother, but she could still do it by asking the reason and reminding her a little.

"In this case, isn't it too good?" Song Jingqing hesitated.

In the letter the queen mother gave her before, she roughly explained the reason for doing this. Although Song Jingqing didn't particularly understand the twists and turns, she could vaguely sense that this was a very risky and possibly beneficial to Da Xia. s method.

Moreover, the queen mother specifically mentioned that if Xia Yuxiao wants to see her after waking up, she can just notify her directly.

That's right, the Empress Dowager's guess was very accurate, and Xia Yuxiao came to "excuse the teacher" immediately, but the other party was the Empress Dowager after all, and she was also afraid that the mother and daughter would conflict.You know, Xia Yuxiao had banned Xia Yun before and caused Xia Yun to "suicide" inside. The queen mother and her majesty have not communicated with each other about this matter. Once they meet, what should they do if they settle the old and new accounts together?

"This is an order." Xia Yuxiao said simply.

Song Jingqing was stunned for a moment, then she could only nod her head and turn to leave.

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

Qin Ji was woken up by the sound of arguments.

The voice was actually quite loud. If Qin Ji didn't wake up again, he might be a little drowsy.

He just woke up, and immediately realized where he was and what happened before in a very short time, so he decided to continue pretending to be asleep and listen to the wind around him.

Sure enough, he heard Xia Yuxiao's voice:

"Mother, I can understand what you're doing, but is it really safe?"

"What's wrong? Isn't the Taiwei just like this in the eyes of the ministers in the court? In their eyes, it is possible for Qin Ji to do anything extraordinary. Or, even if they doubt, they And make yourself believe it.”

It was the queen mother's voice. The queen mother's voice was actually very similar to Xia Yuxiao's, but the difference was that the queen mother's voice was softer, while Xia Yuxiao's voice was more crisp.

"Okay, but isn't it a bit too much for you to push a man over for your daughter?"

Xia Yuxiao's voice was slightly resentful.

"You have been hesitating about the idea of ​​the Tianshi Mansion, which means that you also agree with this idea, right?" The Queen Mother said softly, "I heard that you still can't make up your mind, Yu Xiao, it's not good—you It's the emperor, you have to consider the overall situation. I know how uncomfortable a hasty marriage is for you, but..."

"But when I sit in this position, I have to make all the preparations, I know." Xia Yuxiao replied.

A brief silence.

"By the way, Xia Yun's matter, is it a suicide?"

the Queen Mother asked suddenly.

Qin Ji could hear Xia Yuxiao taking a deep breath.Then, the emperor's bland answer came from outside the door:

"Yes."

"..." The queen mother didn't speak for a long time, and when the atmosphere froze, as if time was about to stop, she finally spoke:

"If what you said is true, then I am a little relieved."

"Look at what you said, how could I lie to you in front of you?" Xia Yuxiao's tone was a little lively, "Then, what if what I said is false? What will happen, mother?"

"...Silly girl, in that case, your late father and I will be happy - Daxia doesn't need a hesitant emperor."

"Got it." Xia Yuxiao's voice trembled slightly.

"So, this matter is the same. Son, mother knows that you have a lot of things in your heart, and you feel uncomfortable. Mother doesn't ask too much. Now, you have to continue. The ancestors of Daxia are still watching you."

"I see."

"It's good to understand," said the Queen Mother, "Song Jingqing, when the time comes, when the Taiwei wakes up, you will be required to perform. Remember, act realistically, and it doesn't matter if you hurt him a little. In short, let him wake up and realize The more serious the better."

"Understood, but sorry for the offense..."

"what happened?"

"Your Majesty is His Majesty's chief envoy...to be loyal to His Majesty."

"Oh, I see, Xia Yuxiao, it's up to you."

The queen mother immediately understood what Song Jingqing meant.

"My order, Song Jingqing, I want you to adopt and implement the Queen Mother's suggestion just now."

This time it was Xia Yuxiao who said it.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Qin Ji heard the conversation between them.

In fact, they were already more vigilant, they were speaking in low voices outside the door, and ordinary people would not be able to hear them clearly, but Qin Ji is not an ordinary person.

He once led his soldiers to ambush the enemy at night in the jungle. Even without using spells, he could clearly hear the wind and grass around him, and he heard a lot of conversations between them.

And Qin Ji also understood in his heart what they were going to do.

This is probably a bureau proposed by Tianshi Mansion.The key to this game is him.

The queen mother sent him to Xia Yuxiao's bed, and then made an excuse to put him at a moral and ethical disadvantage, thereby promoting Xia Yuxiao's marriage with herself...

Then what?Then, because he "broke into His Majesty's bedroom and forcibly shared the bed with His Majesty", this marriage will eventually make him lose the support of some officials, and in this way, some forces that originally wanted to directly target Xia Yuxiao will give priority to choosing Jihuo himself, the "willful and reckless" Taiwei-no one else, is at the low point of morality.

And what about Xia Yuxiao?Except for Xia Yuxiao losing a little bit of majesty as an emperor, this marriage will not cause her to lose any power, but it will allow her to temporarily avoid the targeting of some people in the court.

Of course, the original bureau of Tianshi Mansion should not include this, and this part was probably created by the Queen Mother herself.The so-called bureau at the Tianshi Mansion should only include the part suggesting that he and Xia Yuxiao marry. This is probably based on the stability of the political situation and the concentration of power in Daxia.

I have to say that this suggestion from Tianshi Mansion is actually quite good.But the Queen Mother's hand really added to this proposal.

Chapter 61 Acting

I was involved in their game.

Qin Ji is fully aware of this, and it can even be said that he has been tricked.

He was alert at first, but who put him to sleep?

During this period of time, I was used to living a peaceful life, but I didn't expect that the fighting power did not drop, but the willpower dropped a lot.If it was Qin Ji from before, no matter how sleepy he was, it would not be a problem to persist for one night in such a situation.

Failed.

It is no longer possible to explain it now. Surrounded by dragon guards and maids, it is impossible for him to sneak out without anyone knowing. As soon as he wakes up, I believe Song Jingqing will definitely brandish a knife and stage a scene of "Treacherous ministers defile your majesty, Loyal ministers get angry and pick up rape".

At this moment, he heard Song Jingqing's voice from outside again:

"By the way, Your Majesty, when I went out just now, I saw that guard."

"Which guard?" Xia Yuxiao asked.

"It's the one next to the Taiwei."

Hearing this, Xia Yuxiao shuddered for no reason: "When you saw her, what was she doing?"

"She said hello to me, and then left... It feels like she didn't notice that the Taiwei disappeared..."

Speaking of this, Song Jingqing felt something was wrong the more she spoke, and her voice gradually became smaller.

How could he not notice Qin Ji's disappearance?

This statement, but anyone who knows a little bit will not believe it.Although Lingyan is now in charge of the Huilin Department, but the Huilin Department has not yet become independent, and Lingyan is still Qin Ji's bodyguard, and her master has not come back all night, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible not to take it seriously... ....

"broken......"

Xia Yuxiao suddenly felt something was wrong.

Lingyan, Lingyan, yes, she, or the queen mother, why did they ignore this guy?

Xia Yuxiao immediately turned her head and gave an order to Suilongwei next to her: "Send an order, find the whereabouts of the leader Lingyan at Huilin, hurry up."

"Yes."

"Remember, let Sui Longwei search for it secretly, don't let it out."

If the guard was really busy with many things, he didn't expect that with Long Wei looking for someone with such a great fanfare, even if he was fine, Lingyan would have to suspect something was wrong.

He left with Long Wei.

And Qin Ji couldn't lie down anymore.
