Willing to be hired by Jiangshan

Into the limbo

After waiting for about half an hour, Lin Rongchen came back.

"Yun Xin?"

Yan Xi didn't move, pretending to be asleep.

Lin Rongchen groped onto the bed, sighed silently, and lay down beside him.Realizing that Yan Xi seemed to be really asleep, she stretched out her hand to cover him with a quilt, grabbed his waist, and closed her eyes.After a long time, he suddenly said, "Yun Xin, are you asleep?"

Yan Xi didn't speak.

Lin Rongchen leaned against him, leaning against his back, supporting his head with one hand, and stroking his hair with the other.The air of breathing fluttered against Yan Xi's ears, he wanted to scratch his ears so itchy, but he held back.Anyway, I pretended to be asleep, so it would be strange to wake up at this time, right?What's more, he wanted to know if Lin Rongchen would say or do something...

Lin Rongchen only buried his chin in his hair, took a few deep breaths, stopped Yan Xi's hand and gently stroked something precious, "Yun Xin, sometimes I really can't do anything with you! "After finishing speaking, he stopped talking.

Yan Xi's body was stiff, but Lin Rongchen remained in one posture.Yan Xi couldn't wait any longer, so she stretched her waist and woke up, "The emperor is back?"

"En." Lin Rongchen withdrew his hand and lay flat.

"How did Concubine Yi deal with it?"

Lin Rongchen said: "In the middle of the night, I found an earring at the gate of Changqing Palace...Zhao Xun and the others are also very capable in handling things...tomorrow I will use this earring to find clues. But according to Hu Qingqing's maid, the earring looks familiar It should be the concubines who went to Changqing Palace today. She said that Concubine Hui, Concubine Shu, Concubine Yi and others went to visit Concubine Yi today and gave her their charcoal, so Concubine Yi It was burning all night, and the room was very warm, which attracted the snake. What do you think?"

Yan Xi said lightly: "Do you still need to think about it? How could such a coincidence happen? Someone must have tricked him into harming Hu Qingqing...and your dragon son."

"..." Lin Rongchen supported his forehead, "Who does Master Yan think it is?"

"It's all possible. Maybe it's Concubine Hui, maybe Concubine Shu... It's hard to say. They all have motives, right? If they blame Concubine Yi, this will not only harm Concubine Yi, but also get rid of her, killing two birds with one stone." Yan Xi smashed it. Come on, "It's quite like the emperor... As expected of the emperor's choice, it's very good!" He said seriously.

Lin Rongchen didn't want to talk.Such obvious jealousy, he heard it, the worst thing is, there is no way to comfort it!

If the two of them had explained it, and hugged and kissed at this time, maybe it would be all right.He knew that Yan Xi was actually easy to coax, with a simple mind and easy satisfaction.But at the moment he can only lie beside him, watching him soak himself in the sea of ​​vinegar.

"Go to sleep! Tomorrow the emperor will have to help solve the case!" Yan Xi threw Lin Rongchen a back wall again.

"Ah."

Silent all night.

On the second day, Lin Rongchen got up early and ordered Zhao Xun to invite the Empress Dowager to Changqing Palace.After all, there is no queen in the harem, and the matter of the sixth palace must be handed over to the empress dowager for later resolution.

All the concubines arrived at Changqing Palace early in the morning, whispering, not knowing what happened, only Yan Xi was yawning.

The Empress Dowager recounted what happened last night, and took out the earrings, "Take a good look at this earrings, who owns them, come forward, and be honest! If the Ai family finds out, they will be severely punished!"

The empress dowager's mind is very clear, and she can understand it after listening to Zhao Xun.It is clear that someone wants to harm others, how can the palace tolerate this kind of harm?This time it is a snake, who knows what will be done next time?Poisoning or paying for murder?

I don't know which maid in the palace it was, but she glanced at the white jade earrings and exclaimed.

The Empress Dowager pointed at her and said, "Do you recognize her?"

The maid hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to speak.

"Aijia asked you something, just answer it!"

Mother Li said: "You lowly servant girl, you still haven't told what you know!"

The maid tremblingly said: "This... This is the earring of Concubine Shu."

Concubine Shu?

Everyone looked at Huang Wan.Huang Wan didn't care much, and didn't even frown.He stepped forward and saluted, "Replying to the Empress Dowager, can I let my concubine take a look at this earring?"

Nanny Li handed the earrings to Huang Wan.Huang Wan looked at it carefully, then nodded, "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, this is indeed my concubine's."

Nanny Li said: "Concubine Shu, but you put the snake in Concubine Yi's Changqing Palace?"

Huang Wan shook her head, "Empress Dowager, where did you find this earring?"

Hu Qingqing said: "No matter where you picked it up, if it's yours, it means that you probably came to Changqing Palace last night! Sister, sister really didn't expect that you... you actually..." Saying, I'm going to cry again.

Huang Wan said: "Yesterday, my concubine was invited by Concubine Hui, and I came to Changqing Palace with two younger sisters to pay my respects to the empress. Besides, I have been here before, even if the earrings are lost here, it is not surprising. It does not mean that there is no snake It was the concubine who let him go."

Zhao Zhenzhen said: "I can't explain anything, but, Empress Dowager, Huan'er, the concubine's maid, passed by Changqing Palace last night and saw Concubine Shu and Concubine Yi sneaking around in front of the gate of Changqing Palace. I don't know what they were doing !"

"Oh?" The Empress Dowager asked suspiciously, "Concubine Shu, what did you come to Changqing Palace for?"

Huang Wan went to Changqing Palace yesterday, she went with Zhao Zhenzhen, when did she go again?This Zhao Zhenzhen is clearly slandering her!Huang Wan acted accordingly, "The concubine was looking for the earring at that time. The empress dowager, this earring was left to the concubine by the concubine's mother. After discovering the loss by accident yesterday, sister Yi concubine saw that the concubine was sad, and pulled the concubine. The concubine insisted on looking for it together, so I searched along the road yesterday. I am afraid that because the earring is too small, I didn't find it in the end."

Du Ruo said: "Report to the Empress Dowager, the concubine feels that if someone wants to harm Concubine Yi, he must have evidence at this moment! The Empress Dowager ordered a thorough investigation of the harem, and searched all the concubines' palaces, maybe it will be possible. Find clues."

"Hmm! That makes sense." The Empress Dowager nodded, "Concubine Yi, what do you think?"

Hu Qingqing is naturally good, no matter who is found out, one less enemy is one, so why not do it?

So a team of people inspected palace by palace.

Arriving at Yushu Palace, not long after, Nanny Li came out carrying an iron cage with a snake coiled in it.

When Zhao Zhenzhen saw it, her face was pale, and her lips trembled, "No... this, this is impossible... Caixiu, haven't you already..." She suddenly became dumb and shook her head vigorously.

"Didn't you already take care of something?" Du Ruo said, "Does Concubine Hui want to say that she has already taken care of all the stolen goods?" Du Ruo looked at her coldly.

Zhao Zhenzhen looked at Caixiu, and saw that she lowered her head and said nothing like Chunhong, and realized that she had already been manipulated by others, "Bitch! Even you, even you betrayed me!"

"Betrayal?" Du Ruo sneered, "Your Majesty's words mean that you admitted that you did this?"

Before Zhao Zhenzhen had time to open her mouth to argue, Chunhong came out on her knees with a plop, "This is what my maidservant did! Your Majesty doesn't know about it at all! It's my servant who feels that she owes her, and wants to give her a sigh of relief!"

Du Ruo shouted: "Chunhong! Do you know what you mean by saying this?"

"I know!" Chunhong kowtowed to Zhao Zhenzhen a few times with tears in her eyes, then got up and slammed into the pillar at the gate of the palace!Thanks to Yan Xi's quick eyesight and quick hands, he grabbed the person and avoided a tragedy.

With a "snap" and crisp applause, five finger prints appeared on Zhao Zhenzhen's snow-white face.Hu Qingqing was in a hurry, "Good concubine, what is your intention in framing me again and again? You even found someone to die for you, you are really vicious! Empress Dowager, you must be the master of your concubine!"

The Empress Dowager was thinking about what to do now when Lin Rongchen came.

With such a big commotion, a group of people shuttled back and forth between the various palace walls, and his head grew dizzy.You Qi heard a lot of noise and crying, and his headache was even tighter, and his brows never loosened.

The Empress Dowager said: "Your Majesty, you see how to deal with it."

Lin Rongchen originally thought that Zhao Zhenzhen could survive the winter, but he didn't expect to fall down so soon, "Concubine Hui, you framed Concubine Yi time and time again, and you refused to change after repeated admonitions. From now on, you will be deprived of your title, demoted to the common people, and thrown into the cold palace! Father Zhao Zheng was relegated to be a general of Zhonglang!"

Zhao Zhenzhen froze on the ground, this time it was really over.

Du Ruo looked up at Huang Wan, saw that she was also looking at him, and then lowered her head.Lin Rongchen had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two, but didn't say anything else.

A group of people dispersed, Lin Rongchen was about to leave, but Hu Qingqing grabbed hold of his sleeves.With tears in her eyes, she was very pitiful, "Your majesty, please stay with me, my wife is really scared!"

Lin Rongchen glanced at Yan Xi, seeing that he was walking at the back, looking back at him, he hurriedly opened his mouth, but Yan Xi turned his head and quickened his pace.

Lin Rongchen sighed silently in his heart, turned his head and smiled and said, "My concubine, it's windy outside, let's go in!"

When the two entered the room, Concubine Yi instructed someone to brew the treasured spring tea, and asked Huan'er to prepare some refreshments, "The emperor hasn't come to my concubine's palace for a long time. Although my concubine misses the emperor, he can't always go Hall of Supreme Harmony."

Lin Rongchen said with a smile: "It's my fault. I've been busy with business these past few days and neglected my concubine. I will come to see you often in the future."

Only then did Hu Qingqing smile.

"Your Majesty, the concubine sees that Concubine Shu's sister is dignified and beautiful, with an elegant temperament, and I like it very much. What does the Emperor think?" Hu Qingqing tentatively asked.Without Concubine Hui, Huang Wan is her biggest stumbling block.

"Well, I think it's pretty good too." Lin Rongchen said nonchalantly.He thought of Yan Xi's leaving eyes again, eating tea was like chewing wax.Resisting to wait for a while, I found a reason to leave: "I just remembered, and I called Mrs. Li. Concubine, I can't accompany you today. Eat something and rest for a while. You must be tired after such a fuss." .”

Hu Qingqing held his hand and didn't want to let go, it took Lin Rongchen a long time to put on a smiling face to comfort him.Going out and helping the forehead, the emperor made it like this, he must be the only one in the whole world.

Zhao Xun thought it would take at least a long time for Lin Rongchen to come out, but he didn't expect it to be soon this time.

"Didn't the emperor say last time that it's good to be with the concubine occasionally?" Zhao Xun said intentionally. "Just now I saw Master Yan at the end."

"How about Yan Xi?" Lin Rongchen didn't care about his deliberate sarcasm, he was guilty.

"It's not good, the emperor should know better than the last general, right?"

Lin Rongchen gave him a few knives.Zhao Xun pretended not to see, "Where is the emperor going?"

Lin Rongchen rolled his eyes at him, "Go back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony!"

Zhao Xun said: "But Master Li is still waiting in the Imperial Study Room!"

Lin Rongchen walked like flying, "Then let him wait,"

He is not in the mood now, not in the mood to say anything, not in the mood to talk to anyone.

I just want to see Yan Xi.
