After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Chapter 200
Sheng Tingzhao looked over with a smile.

Those eyes look as harmless as harmless, as pure as they are.

But only Shen Qingci could see the blatant threat inside.

She hates being controlled.

Although even if she was exposed, the queen would not be able to deal with her openly, but rather than confronting the queen head-on, Shen Qingci still wanted to take advantage of her weakness and being manipulated by the queen, and deal with it first.

Especially this trip to Qingzhou.

It's better to use the plan and see what the Queen's arrangement is.

But Sheng Tingzhao wanted to fight against her.

He stood up, bowed to the queen, and said in a drawn-out voice, "Xuesongpo, it was that time in Qiuwei before..."

He was only halfway through.

Shen Qingci's wrist flicked "inadvertently".

A scarlet pill rolled down from her sleeve.

Gululu rolled all the way to Sheng Tingzhao's feet.

"Huh? Third sister-in-law, this is?"

While speaking, Sheng Tingzhao had already bent over to pick it up.

The scarlet pill flipped over at his slender fingertips.

Shen Qingci pretended to be panicked, and before he could make a sound in the future, Nanny Gao on the side had already strode forward, without even caring about his identity, and said:
"Forgive me, Fifth Highness, this is the tonic that the old slave gave Princess Ning privately before."

Gao Momo turned slightly sideways and quietly gave Shen Qingci a warning look.

When she turned her head to face Sheng Tingzhao again, she already had a humble and submissive face: "Concubine Ning's health is not good, and the empress was worried that she would not be able to give birth in the future, so she sent her servants to the imperial hospital to ask for a prescription, and made this pill."

When it comes to childbearing, Sheng Tingzhao seems to lose interest.

The innocent smile on his face faded, and then he threw the pill into Shen Qingci's arms, and said in a neutral tone: "Since it's so important, the third sister-in-law should take it away."

Shen Qingci hurriedly caught Yao Wanzi and forced a smile.

At this time, the queen also came to smooth things over. She sat down on the main seat and looked at Sheng Tingzhao with a smile: "What did Ah Zhao just say?"

Shen Qingci found that when looking at Sheng Tingzhao, the queen's eyes were filled with undisguised love.

This is the look in the eyes of a mother when she sees her son.

Sheng Tingzhao's eyes had already withdrawn from Shen Qingci's body, he turned around and sat down casually beside the queen.

"It's nothing, I just want to say that the last time I was in Xuesongpo, the third sister-in-law was sent back by the third brother due to illness, and my son-in-law didn't even have a face-to-face meeting with the third sister-in-law."

When he said this, Sheng Tingzhao glanced at Shen Qingci casually with regret in his eyes.

That look made Shen Qingci's back feel a little chilled.

She smiled sarcastically, with a bit of apology in her tone: "It's also my fault that my body is really not up to date."

Sheng Tingzhao raised his eyebrows, noncommittal.

Just when Shen Qingci thought the matter was over like this, Sheng Tingzhao said with a smile: "That day I met a strange woman in the woods, the third sister-in-law returned to Beijing first, it's a pity that she didn't see her."

Shen Qingci's heart skipped a beat.

It's not over yet!

Before she could speak, the queen above seemed to be interested, she turned to look at Sheng Tingzhao: "Is that the woman you sent people to look for later?"

Sheng Tingzhao smiled: "It's true that nothing can be hidden from the queen mother."

The smile in the queen's eyes diminished a bit, "Why, is it wrong for the queen mother to care about you?"

Sheng Tingzhao laughed quickly and said, "My son is just joking, but where is the mother thinking?"

Seeing this, the empress held the teacup, "I am really curious, what kind of extraordinary abilities does that girl have, I will keep it in mind when you come back, if you find it, you must show it to the empress."

Although she said it with a smile, hearing Shen Qingci's goose bumps all over her body.

Right now, she couldn't care less about being surprised that Sheng Tingzhao had sent people everywhere to look for her before.

Based on the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, Shen Qingci only hoped that Sheng Tingzhao would stop poking her out.

Sheng Tingzhao, who was sitting opposite Shen Qingci, heard this and glanced at Shen Qingci inadvertently.

He smiled lightly and said: "That's natural, she is still my savior, if I find it, I will definitely bring it to the queen mother to see."

Shen Qingci looked up and met his half-smile eyes.

Shen Qingci: "..."

She suddenly had the feeling that Sheng Tingzhao had dug a hole ahead and was waiting for her.

Before she could think about it, Sheng Tingzhao had already changed the subject, talking happily with the empress, mother and son, as if completely forgetting that Shen Qingci was still by his side.

Shen Qingci didn't feel embarrassed at all, and even wished that these girls would stop staring at her.

But obviously, Sheng Tingzhao couldn't see Shen Qing's resignation.

Shen Qingci was wandering in the sky, but suddenly heard him call out with a smile: "Sister-in-law three."

Shen Qingci came back to his senses after a shock, and heard him say with a smile: "By the way, I heard that the second brother made things difficult for you in the street yesterday?"

At that time, there was such a big commotion, and Su Qi was also called into the book. Of course, this matter was not a secret.

Shen Qingci, who finally reduced his sense of presence in front of the queen, hated Sheng Tingzhao very much.

But on the surface, she only looked nervous and helpless and said: "It's just a misunderstanding, it's just some people outside spreading rumors."

Seeing her like this, Sheng Tingzhao added fuel to the fire and said, "But why did I hear that the second brother even arranged for assassins, and insisted that the third sister-in-law is very skilled?"

Sheng Tingjing is not a fool.

In other words, if he is really not sure, why bother to get himself into trouble?
The queen was reminded by these words.

She turned her eyes and gave Shen Qingci a cold look.

Outsiders can lie, but to the empress and Sheng Tingzhao, they cannot use the same rhetoric.

Shen Qingci hurriedly got up with the hem of her skirt, and knelt down in front of the queen.

"Mother Mingchao."

"To be honest, my son was weak and sick since he was a child. Since the marriage was bestowed by the sage, my mother was afraid that I would not be able to bear it, so she specially invited a female wife who knows some boxing kung fu. She wanted me to learn some fur and strengthen my body. I never thought that King An would find out about this, and would use this to frame me, or make me make a fool of myself in front of everyone, in order to avenge my previous revenge..."

Everyone in the Shen family knew that Shen Qing resigned Qiu Niang to do his job as a martial artist, even Li Nanny, who was sent to the Shen family to inquire about the news, also knew about it.

But Nanny Li had seen Shen Qingci's sickly appearance, and when she told her to practice martial arts to strengthen her body, she didn't pay attention at all, so she didn't report it to the queen.

Even if the empress was suspicious right now, if she turned around and sent someone to ask, she would know whether what Shen Qingci said was true or not.

The best lies are half true.

Of course, Shen Qingci also knew that he couldn't always pretend to be weak like this. Sheng Tingjing had the first design, and there would be a second and third time.

It is difficult for her to ensure that she can detect and cover up in advance every time.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to say that I have learned a little bit from Master Wu, but because of my weak body, I haven't made any progress.

It can dispel the queen's suspicion and reduce her vigilance.

With this foundation, her body will gradually "recover" in the future, and her boxing skills will also improve, and she will not be suspected and used for fuss.

As for Sheng Tingzhao who knows the inside story...

Shen Qingci subconsciously glanced at him from the corner of his eye.

She saw it too.

If he wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago.

The reason why he deliberately brought it up again and again, and then vaguely mentioned it, is nothing but his bad taste.

Want to scare her and tease her?

Furthermore, in this short period of time, Shen Qingci confirmed one thing.

Sheng Tingzhao was far less obedient and obedient to the queen than he appeared on the surface.

At least, when he picked up the antidote to the cedar poison, he could clearly see it, but on the surface, it was able to keep it watertight.

If the mother and son are really united...

Then how could Nanny Gao cover up in such a panic?
Sheng Tingzhao was not known in advance that the queen poisoned her in an attempt to control her.

Having figured this out, Shen Qingci reckoned that Sheng Tingzhao would not expose her lies in front of the queen.

At least, not yet.

"The second child is indeed too much."

The queen sighed, and she put down the teacup, "However, after all, they are my brothers, even if there is some rift, it shouldn't hurt the friendship."

"The emperor summoned the two brothers today for this purpose."

"There will definitely be a knock on the emperor's side. I have sent someone to call the second daughter-in-law, and it's time to come."

"At noon, we will have dinner together here in this palace. The whole family is amiable, and the matter is over like this."

She looked like a dignified and magnanimous empress, she was completely different from the way she promised Shen Qingci in private that she would avenge her.

On the surface, Shen Qingci could only respond in fear.

"The plum blossoms in the imperial garden are blooming just right, you don't often go to the palace, let Gao Nai take you to enjoy it."

This is to drive her away, to talk to Sheng Tingzhao alone, or to meet Jiang Yuzhi in private first.

Shen Qingci will not be uninterested.

She got up to leave, and when she left, she met Sheng Tingzhao's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

There was a sly look in his eyes.

Shen Qingci pretended not to see, turned around and retreated from the hall.

The wind and snow outside had stopped, and the sun came out from the clouds.

Nanny Gao sent Shen Qingci to the door and pointed out a second-class maid to take Shen Qingci to the Imperial Garden.

The snow everywhere in the palace has already been cleaned up by the palace people.

Wintersweet is planted along the road from Fengyi Palace to the Royal Garden.

This season is in full bloom.

The cold wind is bleak, and the plum fragrance is lingling.

Even the Royal Garden cannot escape the bleakness of winter.

Even if it's sunny, Shen Qingci still feels cold.

She stepped on the cobblestone path, intending to go to the gazebo not far away.

The queen will not be free for a while, and Sheng Tingye doesn't know how long he will be left on the saint's side.

Since she had nowhere to go, she first went to the gazebo to take shelter from the wind.

But before she took two steps, when she passed a rockery, she suddenly saw a figure behind the rockery.

A black shadow fell in front of them in the blink of an eye.

The palace maid who followed her took two steps back in fright, almost screaming.

The man covered the maid's mouth and nose.

There was a sunny and handsome smile on his handsome face: "Shh... don't say anything, I just have a few words with my sister-in-law."

　Tomorrow I will go for an outing with my little sisters, and when I come back after climbing the mountain, I don’t know if my old arms and legs still have the strength to type. If I stop changing, don’t worry, I will definitely make up for it later. If I can support it Get up and update normally, just pretend I didn’t say it~
