III Jiangshan

The so-called "thunder rain and dew is not the grace of the king", Wei Zhen deeply understood it at this time.

No matter what the reason is, smashing the emperor's medicine bowl and ruining the decoction that healed the dragon's body is a crime.

Coupled with the emperor's deeply sarcastic questioning, Wei Zhen had been born with arrogance since birth, and for the first time, he was strongly shaken by it.

In the past, she thought that the emperor didn't marry her because the emperor was cruel, and because the emperor couldn't forget someone in the rumors; but now, when she found that she couldn't even do such a small thing as passing the medicine bowl, Wei Zhen really began to doubt Whether it is me, the existence of this person is some kind of pathetic and ridiculous.

Yuan Youqi was still sitting cross-legged on the couch, and Wei Zhen's panic was caught in her eyes.

When a person is really vulnerable, it is the best moment to attack——

So she stretched out a hand to Wei Zhen lovingly: "Is it hot?"

Wei Zhen never imagined that the emperor who looked at him with eyebrows and eyes like he was extremely disgusted in the last moment would stretch out a hand to him in the next moment.

That hand, with slender fingers and distinct joints, is really a hand that couldn't be more beautiful.

Wei Zhen's mind was a little dazed, her body trembled a little, and her face was a little hot. She ignored the pleadings of everyone behind her for a while, and it became a pure blank.But at this moment, in her heart, there is only the beautiful hand that the emperor handed over.

Without even thinking about it, Wei Zhen stretched out his drug-stained hand towards Yuan Youqi.

When her cold hand fell on Yuan Youqi's palm, she suddenly found that Yuan Youqi's pupils flashed a moment of clarity, and what followed was a certainty of victory and extreme contempt.

Wei Zhen's mind went blank again because of Yuan Youqi's weird reaction.

"Cousin, are your hands always this cold?" Yuan Youqi's voice rang in her ears.

Almost subconsciously, Wei Zhen nodded, as if confused, the words had already come out of his mind: "I have been like this since I was a child—"

Her voice stopped abruptly, and she finally understood something.

And Yuan Youqi didn't give her more chances, and shook off her hand forcefully.

"Cousin, do you need to say anything more?" Yuan Youqi looked at her with a half-smile, his disgust was palpable.

Wei Zhen froze on the spot, almost froze.

Yuan Youqi waved away the crowd.

Hearing the voice in her ear, even Tang Xi retreated, Wei Zhen's heart sank into the abyss, she knew that the emperor had discovered what she should not have done.

Soon, there were only two people sitting and kneeling in the dormitory.

Yuan Youqi still looked down at Wei Zhen, no emotion could be seen in his eyes, but his eyes became more and more cold and frightening.

"Wei Zhen, you should understand the deep meaning of my actions, right?" she said quietly.

Wei Zhen bit her lip so hard that she lost all blood. She simply bent her heart and kowtowed deeply: "I have admired His Majesty's beauty since I was young, and I don't want to follow and serve His Majesty all my life! I don't understand , I never thought about that phoenix position, I just want to be the most ordinary woman by your majesty's side. But why doesn't your majesty grant this little wish of my concubine? I ask myself about family affairs, her appearance is not bad..."

"Okay! Don't say any more!" Yuan Youqi cut off her long speech impatiently.

"You should have understood a long time ago that if I am interested in you, I will accept you long ago, and I will definitely not delay until today!" Yuan Youqi raised his voice, "Now that you understand, you should find a lover and live a good life, not Painfully figuring out how to plot against me!"

Wei Zhen was robbed by her, and she opened her mouth to argue.But when I heard the word "calculation", I couldn't tell the difference.

Yuan Youqi looked at her with a sneer, and said: "The Webster family has made great contributions to the country and the people for generations. I am not an ungrateful person."

She stared at Wei Zhen's face, and said again: "If it were someone else who lied to me like this, I would definitely not forgive you lightly. But for Wei's sake, for the sake of you being trapped because of love, I don't argue with you. But—”

Yuan Youqi said, and then changed the subject: "I will never allow that thing to fall into the hands of irrelevant people! If you still remember your surname, your ancestors, and your fathers, then you will do what you should. What you do, don't do anything extravagant, let me down!"

Hearing these words, Wei Zhen felt like the world was falling apart, and his heart was overwhelmed, and he couldn't tell what it was like.

Until now, she didn't feel that what she did and what she wanted was wrong.Under such stimulation, the long-awaited wish for many years has changed into an extreme paranoia.

In a trance, she heard the emperor call Tang Xi to come in, and heard the emperor order Tang Xi to accompany her to fetch "that thing".

The emperor is very clever and scheming, he has already seen through her thoughts and tricks, and even more so, she has seen through her calculations that she will not bring such important things with her.

Almost like a puppet, Wei Zhen followed Tang Xi out of the dormitory, and headed for her temporary residence in a daze.

The bedroom returned to tranquility again, Yuan Youqi sat alone on the couch, rubbing between his brows wearily.

Tang Xi followed Wei Zhen to fetch Gu Heng's silk handkerchief. The broken jade bowl on the floor tiles had already been cleaned up by the maid. The medicinal soup had to be boiled for less than two hours, so I don't think it would be enough to drink that bitter medicinal soup tonight. kid...

Everything seems to be developing in a satisfactory direction, but why do I always feel that it cannot be realized?

Yuan Youqi stared at the idea of ​​medicinal soup splashed on the rug on the floor, the brownish brown residual juice looked very much like bloodstains.

Yuan Youqi frowned even tighter.

Tang Xi left quickly and came back quickly.

He quickly stepped into the bedroom, carefully took out the precious yellow burden bag in his arms, and presented it to Yuan Youqi.

Yuan Youqi hurriedly took it and opened it, and seeing Gu Heng's silk handkerchief again, her heart immediately settled down.

"How's Miss Wei?" Yuan Youqi asked, involuntarily twiddling the "heng" embroidered pattern on the corner of the silk handkerchief.

Tang Xi realized that when Wei Zhen secretly took the silk handkerchief from the emperor's hand while the emperor was ill, most of his three souls and seven souls were scared away.Fortunately, the emperor didn't blame him for this incident. While he was secretly thankful in his heart, he replied very courteously: "When the slave girl left, Miss Wei said she was going to rest. The slave girl looked at her sourly, without energy. I think that after being taught by His Majesty, I feel ashamed..."

"I know." Yuan Youqi was impatient to listen to Tang Xi's noise.

Carefully putting away the silk handkerchief, Yuan Youqi collected himself, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Is there any news from Su Wang's residence these two days?"

Tang Xi hurriedly replied: "Missy also quietly handed over the sign to see you yesterday!"

Yuan Youqi frowned: "But what happened?"

"This... I don't know. How about I just let her into the palace?" Tang Xi asked.

"At this time, there's too much commotion," Yuan Youqi shook his head and said, "There's no rush. Even if something really happened, I still want to see how she will deal with it properly."

Tang Xi didn't dare to say more.

Yuan Youqi recalled the letter that Master Yuanling had handed over to him, which was still hidden in his sleeve pocket.

Her expression was a bit gloomy, and she told Tang Xi, "Now in the harem, no matter what rank the masters of each palace are, you should submit the details right away, I want to see!"

Tang Xi heard her speak solemnly, and suddenly felt that this task was extremely heavy.

To put it bluntly, why do you want the details of these women in the palace?When did His Majesty care about the situation of those nobles?Tang Xi muttered in his heart, but he responded with a smile on his face.

Since the emperor asked him to do it right away, he was very anxious, and he might not be able to sleep tonight.

Thinking about it, Tang Xi and his party went out.

Unexpectedly, he collided with a small inner prisoner who ran over in a hurry.

"You're going to die!" Tang Xi scolded.

He is the head of the inner court, except for the old man in the Shoukang Palace, all the eunuchs in the Forbidden Palace are respectful when they see him.

I don't know where such a ignorant stunned head Qing came from, and if he ran in, what if he bumped into Yu Jia?People outside don't know what to do!

Tang Xi felt unhappy, and grabbed the little eunuch with his hands.

The face of the little eunuch turned pale with fright, because he was out of breath from running so fast.

"Director Tang..." The little inner supervisor was out of breath.

Tang Xi held him by the collar, blinked his eyes, the more he looked at this boy, the more he looked familiar... Isn't this the little eunuch he just met at Miss Wei's residence?

An ominous premonition flashed through Tang Xi's mind.

"Are you trying to force the old minister to rebel!" Empress Dowager Wei sternly pointed at Yuan Youqi who was kneeling in front of her.

Yuan Youqi was also annoyed and anxious: Who would have thought that Wei Zhen would commit suicide after returning to her residence after being said a few words by herself!

"It's her own paranoia, the boy never forced her!" Yuan Youqi argued loudly.

"You can tell the Ai family what you said, but what will the foreign ministers think?" Empress Dowager Wei couldn't get over her anger.

"Fortunately, I was discovered and rescued in time, otherwise, how would you let the Ai family explain to the Wei family!" Queen Mother Wei said angrily.

Yuan Youqi sneered, "We were discovered in time? I'm afraid it must have been arranged long ago!"

Empress Dowager Wei stared at her, and said solemnly: "It doesn't matter if she can't think about it for a while, or she has prepared in advance, if she dies in case, where will you put Ai's family?"

"Then where does the queen mother put the child?" Yuan Youqi raised his head, facing the Queen Mother Wei, with a hint of injustice in his voice.

Empress Dowager Wei's pupils shrank slightly, and the atmosphere between the mother and daughter suddenly froze like ice.

"The queen mother knows that the child has no intentions of Wei Zhen, but she still forcefully puts her in front of the child's sick bed," Yuan Youqi said, "She has plotted against the child, does the queen mother know?"

calculating?Queen Mother Wei was surprised.

Yuan Youqi simply took out Gu Heng's silk handkerchief and showed it to Empress Dowager Wei: "The child is on the sick bed with a high fever, and has been clutching this all the time. The empress might have seen it too, right?"

Empress Dowager Wei stared at the word "Heng" on the corner of the silk handkerchief, her eyes were full of anger.

Only to hear Yuan Youqi say again: "Let's not mention the matter between my boy and Ah Heng for now. My boy only talks about this silk handkerchief—"

"If this thing is held in Wei Zhen's hands, it will be used by her to blackmail the child and the queen mother in the future. What does the queen mother think will happen?"

Empress Dowager Wei smiled coldly: "That's your trick, not Aijia's!"

"But the baby's daughter, isn't it the Queen Mother's handle?" Yuan Youqi looked directly at the Queen Mother Wei.

Empress Dowager Wei trembled slightly when she heard this.

"Wei Zhen served the child by the sick bed, and it was hard to guarantee that she was alone. At that time, if she had doubts about the identity of the child, the queen mother felt that she dared to lie to the seriously ill child and took away the thing privately. What else is she afraid to do to threaten her?" Yuan Youqi said.
