Farmhouse pretty cook

Chapter 714
The arrow was already on the string, and the man who was holding his legs and was about to run away, when he heard what she said, he couldn't move anymore, he hurriedly turned around, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Mu Xiang, "The villain has eyes but can't see Mount Tai!" I don't know how powerful Madam is, I offended Madam, the petty crime deserves ten thousand deaths, I hope Madam forgives the sin, and spares the villain's life, as long as Madam holds her hands high, she is willing to do whatever the villain wants!"

Mu Xiang held the handle of the bow and crossbow, looked at him with a half-smile, her eyes were cold, "Save your life? Why do you want to spare your life? What use is your life to me?"

After a pause, she said again, "I never keep useless people, or you can tell me, how do you trade and what is the reward after you are done? Since it is not gold and silver money, it must be of great use to you, And what is necessary, say it, I will count to three, if you don’t say it, I will shoot this arrow into your mouth, watch you use your hands to gouge your own mouth, and when you know that a person’s mouth is rotten, What will it be like?"

At this moment, not only the person on the ground was startled and frightened, but even Wu Qing and the others felt sick in their hearts.

"The villain said, the villain said everything, and I asked my wife to save the villain's life!"

The man kowtowed on the ground, making a loud bang.

Mu Xiang snorted contemptuously, threw the bow and crossbow to Wu Qing, and ordered: "Take him away and go back to the government for interrogation. It's getting late, and my wife has to go back to rest and sleep!"

"Yes, my Majesty's Order," Wu Qing sent a team of people to take the man down and bring him back to Prince Xiang's Mansion.

When passing by Yuesha's side, the woman was actually still alive, lying on her back on the ground.With a pair of empty eyes open, I don't know where to look.

Mu Xiang sighed and said: "Take her back too, put her in the prison, and order someone to treat her wounds. She is lucky if she survives. If she can't, it is her fate. Remember to lock her up in the prison just now. Opposite people, so that she can watch day and night."

This night, this alleyway was covered with blood, but the next day, before the sun came out, it was back to normal, and not a single trace of blood could be seen.

In addition to the parties involved, there are two other people who also know.

He Liancheng was hundreds of miles away, and while changing horses, he unfolded the urgent mail sent by his subordinates.

What Mu Xiang didn't know was that He Liancheng was very clear about her situation in the capital, because every half a day, a letter would be sent out of the capital, three times a day, and once in the morning after she woke up. The situation is just to find out how well she sleeps and how energetic she is.

He Liancheng looked at the contents of the letter, and slowly opened his frowning brows.

Another person who knew the situation was Mu Kun.

Ever since he escaped from the old house that night, he has been hiding in the queen's bedroom without Mu Xiang and He Liancheng's guesses.

Anyway, Tang Huang is now obsessed with practicing alchemy, even if he wants to be a concubine in the palace, he will definitely not come to the queen.

But there is one thing that no one may have expected, that is, Mu Fengting is favored again.

In such a short period of time, it only took her a few days to go from the great fall to the great rise.Empress Dou didn't know what method she used to win the holy favor again, and made Emperor Tang smile. No matter which concubine she summons again, she must be summoned to accompany her until dawn in the second half of the night.

But Empress Dou can't care about this matter now, because...

"Mother's queen..." Shangguan Yun'er's eyes were swollen into peaches from crying, and she lay on the beauty's couch, as weak as a willow in the wind.

Empress Dou was annoyed by her crying, she slammed the table, and said angrily: "Have you cried enough? If you have cried enough, stand up for me. Don't forget who you are. If you are gone, you are a widow, and the new emperor succeeds to the throne, you don't need to tell me what will happen to you, you understand it!"

Shangguan Yun'er has indeed cried enough and is tired of crying. She is not crying for the crown prince, but for herself. She is young and widowed, and guarded as a crown princess. In the future, she will live in seclusion in the mansion apart from being ordained as a nun. , and don't go out again, otherwise you will be sprayed to death by the spittle stars of the world.

She wiped her tears with her sleeve, and stood up lightly, now she was the only one in the queen's palace.

Empress Dou condensed her delicate crescent eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Now, we have two ways, one is to keep the emperor's death a secret, let Princess Xiang enter the palace tomorrow, and lure her into the palace , you and I join hands to blame her for the death of the prince."

"This..." Shangguan Yun'er put away her tears and carefully considered the queen's proposal, "I'm afraid it won't work. Princess Xiang is a scheming person, and she acts very vigilantly and decisively. We want to blame her, and my concubine is worried. If one fails, she will bite back, and the gain will outweigh the loss, and the death of His Highness will be leaked."

The idea was rejected, Empress Dou was not angry, it was indeed unsafe to blame Princess Xiang, that girl was too cunning, she acted arrogantly, and did not care about anything, even if He Liancheng is not in the capital now, her power is still not weak.

"Then there is only the last one, find someone to pretend to be the prince, and I will ask someone to get a human skin, and I will need your help then," that's why she had to tell Shangguan Yun'er.

If she wants to find someone to pretend to be the prince, she can take care of him in the palace, but since the prince has recovered from his illness, he must not be able to live in the palace permanently. Once he returns to the prince's mansion, it will definitely not work if he has no one to support him.

Shangguan Yun'er bit her lip, "The concubine would like to obey my mother's order!" Now, what can she do?Naturally, the queen is what she says, but I don't know who she is looking for.

Empress Dou smiled with satisfaction, "You can understand the general situation. The queen mother is very satisfied. Don't worry, the queen mother will not treat you badly. The glory of the queen mother is also your glory. The future of the prince is naturally yours. After returning to the prince's mansion, you You have to watch it all the time, and don't let this person come into contact with anyone other than you!"

"But you can't make it too obvious. You only say that the prince needs to rest. It is not a last resort. Don't let him contact outsiders. The concubines in his mansion should be kept away. It is best to lock them up. In this catastrophe, I am determined to get rid of the bad habits of the past, and only focus on sharing the worries for the emperor and the people of Liming, do you understand?"

Shangguan Yun'er nodded, how could she not understand what Empress Dou meant, if it wasn't for the cold weather, the prince's body would definitely be destroyed.

It is strange to say that the injury is not fatal, but the more the imperial doctor treats it, the more serious the injury becomes.

She doesn't know much about medicine, but she can more or less see that something is wrong, but the queen is here, and that Mu Kun is also there, she dare not say so, she can only follow the two of them.
