Changqing Ci (Rebirth)

Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

Wei Lingci took the opportunity to leave, but the queen came out to persuade her to stay, saying: "Princess Xiang'an seems to be drinking too much, the wind and snow are heavy, and you are the family of two daughters, you might as well rest in the palace and go back tomorrow."

When Concubine Xian got up, she happened to say: "What the Empress said is also true. After all, it is not convenient. If the princess does not dislike it, why not go with me to Zhaoren Palace to rest for a night."

The sudden invitation made the queen unexpected. She thought that Xun Changqing would refuse, but Wei Lingci agreed without thinking. She could only watch the three of them go back to Zhaoren Palace.

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

Zhaoren Palace, side hall.

Both of them brought their maids with them when they came, and Zijin and Xianyun replaced the palace servants, bringing water and serving tea.

Xun Changqing leaned on the soft couch, staring at the door, his eyes were blurred, black hair scattered on the left side of his shoulders, his cheeks were slightly red on his plain face, looking at her seemed to have double shadows.

Zi Jin didn't hear her calling her a few times, Wei Lingci changed his clothes and heard the sound, seeing her drunk, he stretched out his hand in front of her eyes, and laughed at her: "No one refuses, I thought you can't drink." How nice, is this fashion milk cat?"

Xun Changqing looked at the slender fingers in front of him, his face was puzzled, and he said strangely: "Why did the imperial concubine let you and I sleep in the same hall, only one couch?"

Chapter 43

There was alcohol in the conversation, and such a simple question was actually asked, Wei Lingci took the sober tea from Xianyun's hand, "Although you are a princess, but you are only staying for one night, I will let you stay in the palace, It is also her way of hospitality, this place is not just a bed, what is lying under you?"

While joking, he raised his hand to remove the tea cover, put it in her palm after it cooled down, Xun Changqing took a few sips from the teacup, "It's really strange to have two couches in one hall," returned the teacup to Xianyun, and said to himself Standing up, leaning closer to Wei Lingci, looking at the faintly visible veins on her neck, she whispered, "Do you think there will be an assassin tonight?"

Xun Changqing was standing slightly higher than Wei Lingci's flat ground, she tilted her head again, the smell of alcohol was blowing in Wei Lingci's ears, itching, more discomfort, she took half a step back, from In the hot water basin held by Zijin, he twisted off the handkerchief, wiped her cheeks, and answered her in a low voice: "If you live in Changle Palace, there will be nine out of ten, but since Concubine Xiangui invites you, she will." All is well."

Since the noble concubine Gu Liangrou was able to raise the third prince in the palace and compete with the empress, her power in the palace must not be small. Even if the third prince had passed away at this time, her own palace wanted to protect the two of them , it is not difficult.

The key point is that people are in Zhaoren Palace, if the queen wants to send an assassin to test her, she will probably weigh the strength of Concubine Xian. If the assassin is captured, Concubine Xian will not let go if she catches him. Ci only agreed to Concubine Xian's invitation.

Xun Changqing nodded, "You mean that Concubine Xian Gui will block it outside? We are guests, and if there are assassins, the host should be the one who is anxious."

The queen plotted a plot, but she missed the first scene, and pinned her hopes on the second scene. Unexpectedly, the noble concubine Xian made troubles on the way, and she was afraid that she would be so angry that she would jump around in Changle Palace.

The heavy snow at night surrounds the entire Forbidden Palace, and under the black night, large flakes of snow flutter down, and only the sound of falling snow can be heard in the quiet room. Listening to the snow at night is also a beautiful thing in the world.

In Changle Palace, no one put their minds on the heavy snow, Empress Shao Yun was trembling with anger, the cups, bowls and dishes that she could touch had already been broken all over the ground, and the palace was full of palace people kneeling, I fell on the ground and dared not speak, the cloud bursts were more terrifying than the snowstorm outside.

"Gu Liangrou, your son is dead, still restless, disturbing the important affairs of this palace, a small Zhaoren Palace, I don't believe that there is no opening to enter like a copper wall and iron wall." The corner of the Queen's mouth twitched violently, and she slapped the table with her palm Going up, looking at the palace people in the palace, he became more and more angry, "Go out, get out of this palace, what use is there for you."

With the cold light in the naked eyes under the slender eyelashes, he ordered the man standing beside him, "Follow the plan and send someone to Zhaoren Palace to see if Wei Lingci is the assassin from yesterday, and whether it is the Pingnan Palace or not." They are acting, if they did it, I will not let any of them go."

The smile on the corner of his mouth was like a poisonous flower that was about to bloom, and the poison penetrated into his flesh and blood, but the man standing next to him had already gotten used to it. The exquisite carving on the long knife at his waist showed his extraordinary status. Cen, the deputy commander of the imperial guards There is only one word between the deputy commander and the commander, but the status is worlds apart.

After thinking about it for a while, he obviously disagreed with the queen's way of breaking the boat, "Madam, I'm afraid this matter cannot continue. The guards of Zhaoren Palace belong to Yuan Qingming, and the minister's people are not allowed to enter; moreover, if they are captured, I'm afraid it will cause trouble." Your Majesty and Your Highness."

Shao Yun waved her hand and said: "Even if you are caught, as long as Wei Ling's words are exposed, you will be an assassin, and nothing will happen."

"Your Majesty, all of this is just your conjecture, and there is no real evidence. If Wei Ling's words are not correct, I'm afraid you will lose His Majesty's trust, and you will lose more than you deserve."

"Cen Li, it was you who told me that the Pingnan Palace quietly invited a doctor, and that the doctor still stayed in the mansion and never left. This is the best evidence."

Cen Li frowned deeply, and then explained: "It's just a matter of asking a doctor, Princess Xiang'an may be unwell, so it's common sense that she doesn't want to ask a doctor."

"Cen Li, no matter what you do, I must go to Zhaoren Palace to have a look. This is my order," Shao Yun ordered coldly. This matter involves the Shao family. She can't just ignore it. The emperor has been dissatisfied recently. Although she and the Shao family have a fair attitude towards Xun Yiran, it is not difficult to guarantee that the emperor will implicate Xun Yiran because of the Shao family.

The cooked duck is in her hand, how can it be taken away by others, she then ordered: "Send someone to investigate the doctor, and be sure to bring the doctor to this palace to see if he is the one who healed Wei Lingci." hurt."

This action will definitely disturb His Majesty, if not, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable. Although Cen Li is used by the Empress, he still cannot do such a self-destructive thing. After receiving the Queen's order, he immediately went out Changle Palace.

Just diverted to the Hanyuan Hall and reported the matter to Xun Yen, the Queen is His Majesty's official wife, if this matter fails, he will surely bear the blame, and his family will not be able to survive.

After the second prince found out, he really ordered that this matter be put on hold in advance, and he went to Changle Palace to discuss with the queen himself.

Cen Li didn't know how to talk about it, but after receiving the order to stop the plan, perhaps in the eyes of the second prince, he couldn't afford to gamble.

In the Hanyuan Hall, the emperor's attitude towards him was much worse than before. The emperor suspected that Shao Tang was spreading rumors. He had close contacts with the Shao family. No matter how he explained it, he was powerless and pale.Uncle Shao Cheng was still trying to keep his son in law, but he hardly dared to intervene in it. The emperor's words were beating him both openly and secretly.

Most of the queen's power comes from the Shao family, but over the years he has gradually realized that his uncle is no longer under the control of the mother and son. In the public, Shao Tang's words are nailed to the ground like nails. How can they be pulled out?

There is no way to argue, he must abandon Shao Tang and save himself.

All he has to do is to calm down the matter and let the emperor and the people forget about it, instead of spreading the matter to the point of being out of control.The Empress Dowager's move was too risky. If not, ordering assassins to enter the Hall of Zhaoren, although it was to test Wei Ling's words, if Concubine Xian bit back, and it was her who assassinated, then how should they argue.

The emperor already felt guilty towards the concubine Xiangui, and this action will definitely aggravate his guilt. The empress loses her morals, and she is afraid that she will lose her position.Taking a step back, exposing Wei Lingci as an assassin will only implicate her alone, and Pingnan Palace will not lose half a point.

After careful consideration, the queen had no choice but to abandon the plan.

It's not worth risking all your wealth and life for Wei Lingci!

A faint fragrance wafted from the incense cauldron carved with gold silk, the atmosphere in the whole bedroom was mild, the doors and windows were closed, the crimson mantle and vermilion gauze swayed slowly, the candles were burning high, after Zijin and Xianyun tidied up, they all left the side hall together .

Two people in the hall sleep on separate beds!
