In the elegant eight-legged gazebo in the back garden, there were strenuously suppressed coughing sounds from time to time.

When Pei Mo got closer, he saw the queen reclining on the soft seat of the gazebo.

Pei Mo walked up to salute, but the queen slightly raised her hand and said in a warm voice: "I came to you today because I wanted to chat with Ai Qing, so I don't care about etiquette, come and sit down." The queen said and pointed Refers to the soft chair opposite.

"Yes." Pei Mo agreed, and took a seat opposite the queen.

The maids brought the refreshment fruits and vegetables to the table one by one, and the queen turned away all the maids, obviously she had something important to explain to Pei Mo.

After all the maids retreated, the queen couldn't help but started to cough again, picked up the purple jade teacup on the table, brought it to her lips and took a sip to relieve it a little.

"I heard that His Majesty is ill this morning, may I ask the imperial doctor to have a look?"

The queen sighed inaudibly, looked at Pei Mo and shook her head, her smile showed a bit of bitterness, "If a kind of poison has been taken for many years, the poison has already taken root after many years, what's the use of asking the imperial doctor to look at it?"

"Your Majesty, you!" Pei Mo was slightly stunned. The Queen's poisoning had never happened in her previous life. The Queen died young and died suddenly. The imperial doctor claimed that she was overworked, and she didn't go into it. Where did the poisoning come from now?

Sensing Pei Mo's astonishment, the queen didn't show any surprise on her face, she lowered her head and drank tea: "I knew about this matter half a year ago."

Pei Mo frowned, "Who can find out who did it? Why did His Majesty only disclose it to my minister until now for such a serious crime of treason? If it had been earlier..."

The queen waved her hand, with bitterness and self-mockery that could not be concealed on her face, "So what can I do if I know? I was poisoned by that Bigu ten years ago, and in the past ten years, the poisoned people have never stopped In the past, I used to poison people while drinking tea, and what's even more ridiculous is that I was so stupid that I only discovered it half a year ago. And I haven't found out what method the other party used to poison."

According to the memory before rebirth, although Pei Mo knew very early on that the time left for the Empress before him was short, death from illness and death from poisoning were fundamentally two different concepts, and he couldn't help feeling angry, frowned and said : "Your Majesty, you know who did it."

"Who can serve close to me every day, and also handle all the tedious matters in the harem, who does Ai Qing think there will be?"

Although Pei Mo already had a guess in his heart, when he actually heard what the queen said, he was still startled.

To say that the empress went to the south of the Yangtze River three times only to please the husband of Bo Huang is widely spread even among the people.

Although as an empress of a generation, due to her status, she couldn't do such a special thing like taking a scoop of three thousand weak waters, but for so many years, who didn't know that the only person in the harem was really cared for by the empress... Loving and pampering.

Pei Mo couldn't even imagine how she survived those days when the empress knew that her beloved had been poisoned for ten years.

Seeing that Pei Mo was silent, the queen looked at her and smiled, "It is precisely for this poisoning that I came to you today."

Pei Mo's eyes sank, he frowned and said, "What does Your Majesty want me to do?"

Twirling the teacup in her hand, the Queen's originally peaceful face flashed a stern look, and she said in a deep voice: "I didn't intend to make this public. After all, I believed in the wrong person at the beginning. Losing his hand is nothing but her own fault, but she absolutely shouldn't extend her hand to my heir!"

After finishing speaking, the teacup in the queen's hand was shattered by her squeeze, and a little scarlet slid down the shattered cup.

Pei Mo frowned, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please take good care of the dragon's body."

The queen sneered, "Oh! It's just a dying person, so what's there to cherish." After finishing speaking, she cut her eyes straight at Pei Mo and said, "Pei Aiqing, I want you to help me find out, what kind of method that person used to poison and murder him?" The second princess, the fifth princess, the sixth prince, and the thirteenth princess who is not yet full moon! I am deeply poisoned myself, and death is not a pity, but I can't just watch my sons follow in my footsteps!"

Pei Mo's hand under the sleeve suddenly tightened, and Qin Ran was poisoned?

Seemingly aware of Pei Mo's abnormality, the queen said in a deep voice: "Ran'er was given a chance after she moved to Zhong Ning Palace. Now that you take her away from Zhong Ning Palace, the poison should not harm her body."

Hearing this, Pei Mo breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was filled with uncontrollable anger. He wanted to slowly develop his power and eradicate Qin Rong and the others completely. Now that they were restless, they dared to reach out to On Qin Ran's body.

If you dare to touch her bottom line, then don't blame her for killing them all!

The coldness in Pei Mo's eyes was fleeting!

Thinking of this, Pei Mo suddenly knelt down in front of the queen, and said with calm eyes: "I dare to marry the fifth princess as my wife. Your Majesty must agree."

Hearing this, the empress was slightly taken aback, and then suddenly smiled happily: "I thought that with Aiqing's temperament, it must be that girl Ran'er who couldn't hold back and came to me to mention this matter first, but I didn't expect it to be you who was the first to talk about it." Open your mouth." As she spoke, she raised her hand and said, "Ai Qing, get up and talk."

Pei Mo nodded, got up and sat down again.

Looking at Pei Mo, the queen seemed to think of something, looked at her with great interest and said, "I have ignored that girl Ran'er for a long time, have you ever hated me?"

"I dare not."

The queen snorted softly, looked at Pei Mo and said, "Don't you dare? Back then, that girl Qin Yue just got Ran'er into the pond, and then you and your lord teamed up to get her directly to the clan's mansion? And what about Qin Rong? The girl was even designed by you, and now she is lying on the bed and can't get off the ground after being hit by a board. To get my two daughters into such a field, what else is there that you, Pei Mo, dare not do?"

Hearing this, Pei Mo couldn't help coughing lightly, "Aren't these all the orders of Your Majesty?"

The queen was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and then couldn't help laughing, "You! This character is exactly the same as your mother's back then."

After all, as if thinking of something, the queen's eyes flashed with nostalgia and said: "Since your mother passed away, it seems that I haven't had such a happy chat with anyone for a long time. Speaking of which, your family has been loyal to the royal family all their lives, and now you are the only one left , although I haven't made it clear on weekdays, I still owe you the Pei family in my heart."

Pei Mo frowned, "Your Majesty, you are serious. It is the duty of a courtier to serve the country. Why do you owe it?"

The queen sighed softly, looked at Pei Mo and said, "Ran'er is a girl with a pure nature and no background to rely on. I knew this very well at the beginning, so I deliberately ignored her. After so many years, even though Ran'er is in the harem I have suffered a bit, but my life is not in danger, do you understand my painstaking efforts?"

Before Pei Mo could speak, the queen sighed softly and continued, "It's my blood, how can I really not care about it? It's just that, as the emperor of a dynasty, I really have too much helplessness. Tell you, it's just a little nagging from a dying man..."

"I understand what your Majesty said!" It is precisely because of understanding that Pei Mo will always be loyal to her.Otherwise, she could just take Qin Ran away after her rebirth and ignore the disputes in the palace.Just understanding does not mean understanding. She did have some complaints about the queen's neglect of Qin Ran and allowing her to be bullied, but at this moment, hearing her tell her what she wanted so frankly, the dissatisfaction in her heart was overwhelmed. Faded.

The queen took a sip of tea, and then said, "Pei Mo, it's fine if you're an ordinary person outside the palace, but in this deep palace, if you marry her, it's not easy to take good care of her. There is a long way to go in the future It is much more difficult than getting married with Qin Zheng, Qin Ze and other princes and princesses, do you understand this?"

Hearing the empress mention Qin Zheng and Qin Ze, Pei Mo's eyes twitched, and then he said seriously: "Since I chose Ran'er, I have already made such preparations."

Hearing this, the empress laughed loudly and said, "In that case, I will allow your marriage. It seems that there hasn't been any happy event in our palace for a long time!"
