Yi Mo pondered the reason why the Queen Mother sent someone to lure her there, and the relationship between Rong Guifei and the Queen Mother.

Ajiu, on the other hand, couldn't calm down for a long time after hearing the indifferent instructions from her own lady——

"Go back and wait outside the queen's palace. No matter who comes out, Xiao or Yi, you follow. If Xiao Jingyi leaves the palace, pay attention to her subordinates' movements. If it's Yi Mo..." Li Yanyan sighed softly here, "If she leaves the city, she will be shot and killed."

Ajiu was startled when she heard the words, she ignored etiquette for the time being, and contradicted Li Concubine: "Miss, according to what I saw, that Miss Yi and Miss Shen are the same person, if..."

"In ancient times, there were plenty of brothers who fought against each other and husbands and wives who were against each other. How could it be strange to be unkind?"

The first half of Empress Dowager Li's sentence seemed to be self-satisfying, and the second half of the sentence seemed to be transparent. Ajiu couldn't figure out what she was thinking, so she kept her mouth shut.

……

Yi Mo was "invited" back to Qingning Palace, and looked up at the standing man and knelt down straight.

When she bowed her head in silence, Empress Dowager Li signaled Ah Jiu to go out.

When there were only two of them in the hall, Empress Dowager Li walked down the jade steps and said slowly, "What happened in Jiangzhou before?"

Yi Mo expected this question, so he put aside his fear of unknown fate for now, and answered calmly.

Empress Dowager Li stood in front of Yi Mo, she was silent for a moment after she finished speaking, then changed the topic: "Why did you come out alone? Are you willing to read?"

Empress Dowager Li's expression was a little slow when she said this, and she smiled slightly at the end of the sentence, Yi Mo looked at each other blankly, and said calmly: "It's cold at night, I want to come out to get some fresh air."

Right now at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the north wind is blowing, Yi Mo made up a random excuse to clarify the relationship with Shen Nian, and in desperation did not care whether the reason was appropriate or not.

Empress Dowager Li looked at her deeply.Yi Mo was uncomfortably stared down, and the gaze above his head turned away just now.

"Nian'er and Auntie asked her to ask me about it." After leaving these words behind the case, Queen Mother Li raised her hand to ask Yi Mo to stand up.

Yi Mo was stunned for a moment, just now when that Ajiu Guniang called her here, she mentioned the matter of Aunt Nian'er, how come now, Empress Dowager Li is categorically denying this?Just thinking about these words, Yi Mo still remembered that he was a sinner, and he didn't dare to publicize or refute at all.

Empress Dowager Li greeted Yi Mo to sit down, and asked some other things about when she was still in Jiangzhou.

Those past events are so old, carefully recalling the vicissitudes of time and circumstances, Empress Dowager Li asked about the situation in Yi Mo's home, and also asked about her encounter and acquaintance with Shen Nian.

The tone of the elders above was soothing and gentle, and the question and answer seemed to be the situation of two generations chatting about family affairs.Yi Mo put his mind at ease and focused on it.

Without any other instructions from the master, Ajiu returned to the Hall of Renming to guard, this time directly stationed in the palace as a female medical officer who has not been revoked.

Ajiu stayed in the courtyard, and when the door of the back hall opened and the two beautiful women appeared under the moonlight, she went up to meet Yi Mo and briefly explained Yi Mo's whereabouts. Ning Dian.

Sima Zi's heart was full of turmoil, he ignored Ajiu and hurried away.

Xiao Jingyi remained silent for a long time.

Yi Mo was reluctant to leave, she lost the bet.

In fact, in this round of betting, she was not favored to take care of her in the first place, and she accepted the contract openly, but she was obsessed with it.

That's it, that's it.

King Xiang wanted a goddess but didn't, so he couldn't ask for it.

·

Sima Zi was announced into the main hall, and when he stepped into the hall, his eyes slipped to the side first, seeing Yi Mo Ruchu, he just felt relieved, and approached to pay his respects.

Li Jin paid attention to her expression, nodded silently and said nothing, and asked her to sit beside Yi Mo.

Then Xiao Jingyi came and greeted Empress Dowager Li lightly.Empress Dowager Li said a few words of precepts, and waved her to the other seat.

Comparing Yi Mo and Yi Mo, it can be seen that Empress Dowager Li is a deserted person, and she is actually very close to Sima Zi.

Everyone took their seats, and Empress Dowager Li waved for Ajiu to leave.

Ajiu went to join the tea, knelt down and said softly, "Master, please use it", and confronted Li Yu for a few moments, seeing her take a cup of tea, Ajiu bowed and withdrew.

The door of the palace creaked and closed, and the cool moonlight shining through the window lattice was no match for the flickering candlelight, and stagnated in front of the door.

The earth dragon rolled, and the hall was as warm as spring.Unfortunately, there is no sleepless night.

"The emperor will arrive in Beijing soon," Empress Dowager Li put down her cup and glanced around, without further words.

Sima Zi glanced at the opposite person upon hearing this.Xiao Jingyi lowered her eyelids, appearing to be respectful and docile.

Sima Zi frowned lightly, Yue Lingyue left the capital a month ago, and so far, there has been no news from the northern border... Just now she asked Xiao Jingyi to enter the palace and leave with anger. Yi Mo originally wanted to ask, but Xiao Jingyi talked about him, Never give her the right chance.

During the silence, the people at the top saw the waves of the banquet in their eyes.

"Is the matter in Jiangzhou going well?" Li Yu turned to Xiao Jingyi, and said to her in a deep voice, "The emperor and the empress praised you for 'caring for the world and being loyal to the king', what does Concubine Xiao think of herself?"

Xiao Jingyi turned sideways and narrowed her eyes, facing the first person, "The empress dowager praises me so much, I can't afford it."

Yi Mo looked at her strangely, it was obviously against the rules for this girl to call herself "Chen".

Empress Dowager Li remained indifferent, and turned to face the two sitting at the same table on the other side, and cast her eyes on Qingli's introverted daughter's house, "Did you think about it just now when Nian'er went back?"

Sima Zi pursed her lips and was about to stand up, but Li Yu waved her hand and asked her to sit down and answer.

Sima Zi stood up, retreated a few steps on his knees, and leaned down on the ground, his voice clear and loud: "Minister Shen Nian, kowtow to the Empress Dowager."

"Get up." Empress Dowager Li stood up and raised her hand.

Yi Mo helped the girl beside him up.Sima Zi carefully gripped her sleeves, avoiding the wound on her palm.

Empress Dowager Li stared down at the people who were sitting next to each other, and said softly: "If you want, just call me aunt."

These words were spoken to Sima Zi.Yi Mo looked sideways at the person who was supporting her with downcast eyes, and gently squeezed her hand to encourage her.

Sima Zi brushed off Yi Mo's hand, stood up, bent his knees and closed his eyes, "Nian'er pays tribute to Auntie."

Probably because she expected this girl to be like this, Li Mi stepped down the jade steps and helped her up with her own hands, "Rong'er left early, after all it is inconvenient for your uncle to be intimate with you, if you have any worries and grievances in the future, come and find me anytime."

Li Yu unintentionally changed back to her ordinary self-proclaimed name, and her words and deeds were gentle, which made Sima Zi, who had been separated from her mother and daughter for a long time, cry.

"Thank you, Auntie."

"You're weak, don't cry." Li Mi wiped her tears, put her shoulders on her shoulders and asked her to sit down for a moment.

Li Yu sat back to her original place, watched Sima Zi return to calmness with soft eyes, and said to her slowly: "I owe you the Sima family an explanation about Rong'er."

Empress Dowager Li looked solemn, and Sima Zi stared at her with bated breath.

"Rong'er's cause of disease is not the well-known postpartum loss. She died in the past, but she died of poisoning."

Heartstrings tensed, Sima Zi clenched his fists.Fearing that she would hurt herself, Yi Mo forced his hand into hers.

"She was injured because of me." When Li Yu said, she looked into the distance, her vision was misty, "13 years ago at the New Year's banquet, Concubine Tong instructed her maid to poison my cup, and the poisoned wine was replaced by your aunt..." After that, she couldn't continue talking, and Li Mi sighed and burst into tears.

Sima Zi felt a dull pain in his heart, he bit his lip and couldn't help himself.

Yi Mo watched from the side, feeling sad and regretful, so he had no choice but to hold her hand tightly.

Xiao Jingyi lowered her eyes to think about it, and said indifferently: "Since Concubine Rong knows that the wine is poisonous, why did she drink it?"

After a pause in wiping tears, Li Yu lowered her eyebrows and said slowly after she calmed down: "There are so many people at the palace banquet, it's probably because I didn't have time to deal with it."

Empress Dowager Li answered vaguely, and her expression was not as calm as before. Xiao Jingyi looked at her a few more times, and looked away before the other party's gaze was drawn.

Sima Zi endured the pain in his heart, and later realized that Xiao Jingyi asked the key point - no matter how busy the palace banquet is, as a noble concubine who is holy and rich, there are always maids to accompany her, not to mention the poisonous people She will never be so stupid as to act on the spot. Concubine Rong will have the opportunity to dispose of the wine if she has time to find out that something is wrong. Moreover, even if the wine is too late to dispose of, she can just refuse to drink it under the pretext of being unwell...

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was a big omission in it, and Sima Zi was worried and thinking wildly.

However, Li Yu changed her voice and asked Xiao Jingyi directly, "This fact is a private matter of the palace. Palace Master Xiao please agree to Aijia and keep it secret."

Empress Dowager Li's respectful compliment to Xiao Jingyi is unworthy of her, and she even knows that Xiao Guan is no match for the power behind the Li family... Empress Dowager Li's words seem soft, but in fact they are meant to warn Xiao Jing. According to her subordinates, she can do it for herself.

Xiao Jingyi got up in panic, bent her knees and replied: "The empress dowager taught me, I should remember it."

The author has something to say: the next chapter will be a confrontation between several parties.

I hope that the third chapter will end~

☆, peaceful

Empress Dowager Li turned to talk about something else, and soon, she called her subordinates to bring some snacks for supper.

Probably because they knew that they had no intention of having dinner before.

This is nothing unusual, in the harem, the Empress Dowager's hands and eyes are open to the sky, even if she is as arrogant as Concubine Xiao Gui, she must show weakness in front of the Empress Dowager Li, this is the law of survival that Sima Zi heard from her uncle before entering the palace.
