A few days later, a court lady sent a message to Fengyi Palace.

Holding the post, Jinxi dangled left and right in front of Cheng Muqing, who was copying a collection of poems.

"The Empress Dowager invited you to the Buddhist temple to pray for blessings. Why is she so relieved? Madam, you are about to give birth..."

"She was already dissatisfied with Ben Gong, and with the matter of Lu Ying, I'm afraid she will hate Ben Gong." Cheng Muqing put down the pen in his hand and dried the ink.

"Why is she dissatisfied with the empress? As soon as the empress heard that she was sick, she returned to the palace and served her sincerely. The incident with Lu Ying was also because Lu Ying wanted to change his son! How could the queen mother..."

"Shh." Cheng Muqing put his index finger on his lips, "The walls have ears."

Before Jinxi's mouth was closed, her face showed distress, her lips moved slightly, and finally turned into a helpless sigh.

The maids in Fengyi Palace were all sent by Empress Dowager Lu. As a junior, Cheng Muqing had no choice but to accept it. She also wanted to find a reason to dismiss these court ladies.However, there were no loopholes in the words and deeds of these court ladies. Even the last time about Tao Yushan, they all spoke in unison and expressed their incomprehension.She can't be dismissed because of this, it will appear that she is very unreasonable.

"Niang Niang, do you really want to go?" Jin Xi approached her and whispered to her.

"Go." After Cheng Muqing returned, he asked again, "Has the Golden Eagle Division also investigated clearly?"

"This is a letter from He Qianyuan." Jin Xi quickly took out a letter from his pocket.

Cheng Muqing unfolded the letter, ten lines at a glance.

In the letter, she entrusted the Golden Eagle Division to investigate about Li Wan.

Behind the background of Li Wan's family, the ancestors also fought the world with the empress.Li Wan is now 32 and has no wife or children at home.According to the investigation, Li Wan made an appointment nine years ago, and his fiancée was his childhood sweetheart.But for unknown reasons, that fiancée disappeared out of thin air in the 11th year of Jinming.

For these years, Li Wan has been a very oily official in the court. Although the party and government have continued, he has never touched himself.Even if he is a staunch princeling, he has never caused dissatisfaction among other party members.

This person is cunning and never leaves a hole in his work.He also has his own way of dealing with people, making friends with many parties, and no one has ever told him that he is not good.

"This person...is really difficult to deal with." Cheng Muqing clicked his tongue.

"It's difficult to deal with, but there must be a way to deal with it." Jin Xi said, "As long as you are human, you must have weaknesses."

"Jinxi, you are sending someone to investigate the 11th year of Jinming." Cheng Muqing threw the letter into the stove and let the dancing flames devour the letter.

The corners of the white letter paper immediately rolled up and turned into ashes.

"Yes." Jinxi hastily agreed.

"Clean up." Cheng Muqing stood up slowly, her belly was already big, and she looked like she was about to give birth at any time, "Get ready to go to worship the Buddha."

Looking at her round belly, Pug sighed, "Are you really going?"

"real."

……

In the first year of Emperor Jin Shun's reign, Empress Dowager Lu led everyone in the harem to the temple to worship the Buddha, praying for the prosperity of the Jin Dynasty and the safety of the emperor.

People on the street saw Queen Mother Lu and her party riding out of the capital in a luxurious chariot and driving strong horses.

"Is that the Demon Empress?"

"Hush! To be heard is to beheaded."

The crowds were crowded, and because of the recent rumors, the people stretched their necks, wanting to see the true face of the current empress.

"I just saw a big belly. What does the Demon Empress look like? Are you really fascinated by Konakami?"

"Bah! She is a demon queen who is a disaster for the country, what are you looking at her for?!"

"..."

There was a lot of voices outside the carriage, disturbing one after another, making it hard to hear clearly.Cheng Muqing felt a little noisy, she rubbed her temples, and seeing Jin Xi's angry expression, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

"No." Pug tugged at her lips, revealing an awkward smile.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Muqing became serious.

"It's really nothing..."

"Speak." Cheng Muqing put his hands on her shoulders with a serious expression, "What happened, tell me, so that I can solve it as soon as possible."

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just... There are some unbearable rumors circulating outside the palace recently."

"What rumor?" Cheng Muqing frowned inadvertently.

"That is to say, my lord, you are..." Jin Xi licked her lips, "You are the demon queen, and the current reform is all because of you, my lord, who bewitched your majesty..." After she said that, her voice became weaker and weaker.

No matter how noisy the sound outside the carriage was, Cheng Muqing could still hear what she said clearly.

"Haha~ I thought it was something." Cheng Muqing's expression relaxed, "The Demon Queen? Isn't this praising the beauty of the Palace?"

"..."

Who gave you the face!
Jinxi slandered in her heart, but dared not say so on her face.Her mouth opened and closed, and her face became a little ugly.

"The Demon Queen~" Cheng Muqing nodded, "This title should be widely spread, right?"

"This..." Probably?Pug Xi thought so, but didn't say it.

"In this way, the queen mother should also know?" Cheng Muqing touched his chin, with a little thought in his eyes, "With the demon queen, no one cares even if I die. Maybe they still think The demon queen is dead..."

"Your Majesty, don't say that, the Master and Madam will be sad, as well as Your Majesty!"

"I know." Cheng Muqing smiled at her, "Soldiers will block you, water will cover you. I am extremely intelligent, so I will never die."

"Yeah!" Jin Xi nodded her head sharply twice.

When they arrived at the Buddhist temple, all the concubines went up the mountain with Empress Dowager Lu.

The whole process was extremely dull, Cheng Muqing followed Lifo to bully, and finally came to Guanyin Temple.

Cheng Muqing clasped his hands together, sincerely praying in his heart that everything goes well for Lin Heng.

In fact, if there was no connection between her and Lin Heng's life, she might not believe in these ghosts and gods in her life.

After paying respects to the Buddha, Empress Dowager Lu turned her head to look at the concubines.

Most of these concubines were left by the late emperor, and most of them have been promoted to concubines.

"The abbot of the temple said that you must be sincere in worshiping the Buddha. Men are working hard outside, and all women can do is pray to the Buddha." Empress Dowager Lu said, "So, from now on, Aijia will take you to meditate in the temple, Pray for Da Jin."

"Chen and concubine follow the order!"

All the concubines replied in unison.

"As for the empress." Empress Dowager Lu turned her gaze to her swollen abdomen, "Let's go back to the fasting room and have a good rest."

"How is this good? Your Majesty is working hard outside. As a wife, how can I not pray for my husband?" Cheng Muqing frowned and sighed softly.

The young woman frowned slightly, her apricot eyes were filled with tears, she seemed a bit aggrieved.

"Rules are dead, but people live." Queen Mother Lu said softly, "You are still pregnant with a child, so don't worry about it, otherwise, if something happens to you because of praying, what will His Majesty think?"

It's really a clean push. In other words, if something happens to her, it's because of Lin Heng.It has nothing to do with her, even if this bureau is led by her.
