The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 731 Humiliation of Innocence (1)
Qingchen looked at the time and said: "Then let's go and wait. The Queen Mother is about to have dinner at this hour, so Liang Jieyu must have gone back too. Let Yunlan follow me, you and Jinxiu are going to have dinner soon." Meal, the emperor may come over to eat again, you cook more dishes that the emperor loves, if you don't come and send it to Yuqian, it's the same."

Jin Xin responded and turned around to go to work again, so she took Yun Lan out the door.

After waiting in a rockery forest in the Imperial Garden for a short time, she saw Liang Jieyu walking over with her maidservant from a distance. Qingchen turned around and looked at the few inconspicuous misty trees newly planted by Xiao Yinzi in the corner. Magic Grass showed a cold smile.

Liang Jieyu approached, and saw that she had been staring at the distant scenery in a daze, so she came over and said, "Concubines see the concubine Chen, and the concubine is Jin'an."

Only then did Qingchen turn around, and said with a smile as if by chance: "Liang Jieyu, please forgive me, this place has a beautiful scenery, I've been greedy for a while, I never thought I'd meet you here."

Liang Jieyu replied gently: "That's right, concubines often go here, and it's the first time I meet my wife. This place has mountains and rivers, and the pavilions and pavilions are also built differently. The scenery is really good."

Qingchen saw that her attitude towards him was much gentler than before. Since there was no hostility, the next words would be easy to say.

She sized Liang Jieyu up and asked: "The queen mother seems to be in good spirits recently. Although she is very weak, she still has the energy to worry about the queen. Has Liang Jieyu listened to my advice?"

Earlier, she advised Liang Jieyu to stop, but she didn't know if she really listened to her words, Liang Jieyu said to Yuwei behind her: "Madam, I lost my concubine's handkerchief, I wonder if I can let Yun Lan accompany you?" Yuwei go together to help the concubine look for it?"

Qingchen smiled knowingly, and said to Yunlan: "You go."

Yun Lan blessed Fushen obediently, and walked down the slope with Yu Wei.

Seeing that the maids of the two had walked away, Liang Jieyu said apologetically: "My lady, it's not that my concubine can't trust Aunt Yunlan, it's just that there are some things that others have to say, and my concubine always feels that it's better to say it to my mother alone." .”

Qingchen nodded, and smiled knowingly: "I think so too."

Liang Jieyu said sadly: "The concubine did listen to the persuasion of the empress, but she is not reconciled. It's not that the concubine is greedy for life and afraid of death, but that she doesn't want to die before her wish is fulfilled. In this way, the concubine will die with regret. The Empress Dowager has repeatedly harmed the Empress, does the Empress not want to protect herself? I know that the Empress is smart, if she is willing to think of a perfect solution for the Empress, the Concubine is willing to repay the Empress by being a cow and a horse in the next life. Besides, you are helping now Concubine, isn't she also saving a way out for herself?"

Qingchen shook her head lightly, as if unwilling to help her, "Liang Jieyu, although I don't know why you hate the Queen Mother so much, but if I want to protect myself, I don't necessarily have to follow your path. Even if the Queen Mother There are thousands of things wrong, it is still the emperor's mother, I don't want the emperor to hate me."

Liang Jieyu stared into Qingchen's eyes, and swore like an oath: "If the empress is willing to help me, if something goes wrong, the concubine will bear it all, and has nothing to do with the empress."

"Are you really that unafraid of death?" Qingchen looked at her deeply, and said with a sneer, "If you take your life and die with the Queen Mother, would you be willing?"

Liang Jieyu smiled unexpectedly, as if she couldn't get what she wanted, "Concubine's life is better than death, and the rest of her life is only for revenge. When her wish is fulfilled, there will be no attachment in this world. If you are willing to help me, so what if you let me die now? I live one more day, but it is just one more day of suffering. It is better to give me a happy relief. If the empress does not believe it, the concubine is willing to jump from this rockery right now Go down to show your resolve."

Liang Jieyu walked towards the edge of the highest point of the rockery, Qingchen didn't call her, but let her go there and closed her eyes, with a look of determination on her face, she shouted when she was about to jump down :"stop!"

Liang Jieyu narrowed her body, turned around and said with tears in her eyes, "Isn't your empress still willing to believe in my concubine's determination?"

It turned out that she really did not hesitate to die, Qingchen didn't want to find out why she hated the Queen Mother so much and wanted revenge at the cost of her life, but since that was the case, then she no longer had to worry about being implicated by her.

Qingchen looked at the few medicinal herbs in the corner and said: "People live a lifetime of vegetation and autumn. Some people are like pomegranates that bear fruit in their twilight years. Some are like those cherry blossoms that are used for viewing. They are brilliant when they bloom but end up empty-handed. The magic grass looks inconspicuous, and the fruit it bears is nothing special, but it is born with the seeds of hatred, if you touch it, it will kill you."

Liang Jieyu's eyelids twitched a few times, and following her gaze, she saw a few unnamed plants planted in the corner of the artificial mountain forest, and they looked really ordinary, unlike ordinary wild flowers and weeds. There is no difference, the fruit is about the size of an ordinary pearl, immature, with a few inconspicuous red spots on the green skin, which is really not very attractive.

"Your Majesty, my concubine would like to ask your Majesty the purpose of the psychedelic herb."

Qingchen said lightly: "According to medical books, if the fruit of this grass is ground into powder and taken by people, it will cause people to have hallucinations. You must know, how many people in this palace are not Blood-stained, who doesn't have a heart demon? Once those fears in the bottom of their hearts reappear before their eyes, the weak-minded people may not be able to bear it. Destroying the will of a person is far more terrifying than destroying a person's body. The fruit of this grass is not poison. Silver needles don’t change color, are colorless and tasteless, even experienced imperial physicians can’t taste them.”

After hearing this, Liang Jieyu showed a wish-fulfilling smile on her face, lifted her clothes and knelt down, "Thank you, concubine, for your fulfillment."

Qingchen turned around and walked down the mountain, said in a calm tone: "I don't know what you are talking about, it's getting late, I should go back for dinner, Liang Jieyu should go back earlier."

Liang Jieyu's eyes suddenly filled with tears, but her expression became even more determined, "Yes, the lady didn't say anything, and the concubine didn't hear anything, the lady walked slowly, and the concubine resigned."

Leading Yun Lan out of the path in the fake mountain forest, seeing no one around, Yun Lan asked softly: "Mother, is Liang Jieyu really reliable?"

Qingchen knew what Yun Lan was worried about, and was afraid that she would bite back and drag her into the water, so she said, "Are there not many people who framed me? Even if she wants to drag me into the water in the future, she must have evidence. But I Looking at her appearance, the palace will not have such a day."

Only then did Yunlan feel relieved: "That's good, otherwise even if she has no evidence, it will be bad for your empress' reputation."

"I trust my intuition, Liang Jieyu would not do that."

Leading Yun Lan through the imperial garden, Qingchen only cared about admiring the flowers and plants around him, and didn't notice the two people not far away, but Yun Lan reminded: "Your Majesty, Su Yue is in front."

　Chinese New Year is coming, these two days are very busy, I can only keep three shifts a day, [-] words, after this busy week, next week will try to be [-], thank you for your understanding~
