Distressed wife

Chapter 947 Master Uncle Loves Her Deeply (1)
When they arrived at the empress' bedroom, they saw the empress sitting with a condensed expression, raised her eyes and saw Mu Ziyan approaching, and said in a low voice, "Yan'er, you came just in time."

"The daughter-in-law sees the queen mother." Mu Ziyan saluted respectfully.

Only seeing Concubine Gui, Concubine Lian, Concubine Zhuo, and other concubines sitting in the main hall, Mu Ziyan's eyes flashed a faint light, and she was waiting for the queen to speak.

"Get up." The queen said in a deep voice, and then said, "Bring people up."

Mu Ziyan got up slowly, and then stood on one side. After a while, she saw two guards dragging a palace lady forward. Her body was covered in bruises, and she must have been tortured.

Mu Ziyan looked at her carefully, and saw that her eyes were tightly closed, her breath could only come in and out, she was dying, and she couldn't live for long.

The queen said in a deep voice, "This slave is so bold that he dares to attack the little princess. It seems that I have been too lenient to you all these days."

The empress that Mu Ziyan saw was dignified and loving, but the empress she saw now was as cold as ice, showing the majesty of an empress. She closed her eyes and stood on one side, knowing that the empress was trying to make an example.

The court lady lying on the ground still had half the strength to speak, but the other concubines lowered their eyes and remained silent, their faces didn't show much fear, on the contrary they seemed very calm.

Mu Ziyan naturally understood that at this time, they acted more calmly. After all, those who were able to sit here were all able to leave today without any blood on their hands. .

The queen sternly said, "Pull off this servant's fingers one by one."

"Yes." The guard at the side took the order, bent down, and pulled it hard, the maid screamed in pain, and saw that the fingers were pulled out one by one.

Mu Ziyan had seen bloody scenes before, so he acted extremely calm, but there were some people here who had never seen it before, even if they had killed someone, they would not have done it like this.

Concubine Zhuo pinched her handkerchief, she closed her eyes and dared not look at it, while Concubine Lian shrank in one place when she saw this, and it happened that Mu Ziyan was standing beside her, so she turned her head away and held Mu Ziyan's hand tightly .

Mu Ziyan didn't dare to move, but let Concubine Lian grab her.

The empress didn't change her expression until the palace maid died of pain and her ten fingers were pulled out one by one, then the empress said in a deep voice, "Drag her out and hang her in the palace to expose to the sun for ten days. .”

"Yes." The guard took the order and dragged the maid down.

The queen glanced coldly at the concubines sitting on both sides. There was still a smell of blood in the hall. There were a few low-ranking ones who covered their lips and held back for fear of vomiting it out, but they didn't dare to make a sound at the moment.

The queen's eyes flashed coldly, and she said in a deep voice, "This palace will definitely find out about this matter. If we know who is behind the scenes, then the servant's fate will be light."

"Yes." All the concubines were frightened immediately, and responded in a low voice.

The queen turned her eyes to look at Mu Ziyan, "Yan'er, I will leave it to you to thoroughly investigate the matter of the little princess falling into the lake. This is my palace's phoenix seal, and anyone who dares to obstruct it will be punished. "

"Yes." Mu Ziyan knew the empress's love for the little princess, even if the empress herself was poisoned, she had never been so angry.

She took the phoenix seal with both hands, and the queen got up and left the hall.

All the concubines stood up and saluted, and when the queen left, everyone dispersed.

Concubine Lian stepped forward and grabbed Mu Ziyan's hand, "Crown Princess."

Mu Ziyan looked at Concubine Lian, "Ma'am, is this?"

"Can you walk with me?" Concubine Lian asked in a low voice.

"Yes." Mu Ziyan nodded in response, and followed Concubine Lian out of the Queen's Palace.

Concubine Zhuo saw Concubine Lian and Mu Ziyan walking so close, her eyes flashed a faint light, she turned around and went back to her bedroom.

Concubine Lian did not sit on the throne, but walked forward holding Mu Ziyan's hand tightly. After walking for a while, she said, "The little princess is the queen's heart and soul, just like the prince, but she has been damaged for no reason. I have been frightened a lot, and I heard that I have not woken up until now, the Crown Princess must investigate this matter clearly."

Mu Ziyan nodded in response, "Yes."

Concubine Lian continued, "This is a gift from me."

Mu Ziyan raised her hand to take it, and saw that it was a box with a token inside, she said in a low voice, "This thing is very important, there will always be some inconvenience after you enter the palace, the water depth in this palace , you should be more careful."

"Thank you, ma'am." Mu Ziyan didn't expect Concubine Lian to give her her palace card, and didn't know what to say.

Concubine Lian smiled and said, "Prince Princess, go and get busy."

"Yes." Mu Ziyan nodded in response, then turned and left.

Concubine Lian watched Mu Ziyan leave with a smile, then turned and went back to her bedroom.

Seeing her coming back, Xuanyuan approached with a smile, "Mother Concubine."

"What are you doing here at this time?" Concubine Lian frowned slightly.

"The son misses his concubine mother." Xuanyuan Fu replied with a smile.

Concubine Lian sighed, "It's not like you don't know the rules in this palace, it's a mess at this time, and you still come here to add to the chaos."

"The son is just worried about Concubine Mother." Xuanyuan Fu supported Concubine Lian, feeling quite aggrieved.

Concubine Lian said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I'm not someone who is easily calculated."

"Mother Concubine, have you really left this matter to sister-in-law?" Xuanyuan Fu looked at her and asked.

"The empress is also knocking the mountain to shake the tiger." Concubine Lian sighed and said, "It is most appropriate to leave this matter to the crown princess."

"That's true." Xuanyuan Fu raised his eyebrows and said, "Sister-in-law is a smart person."

"It's not a good thing for a woman to be too smart." Concubine Lian said quietly.

"Mother Concubine, what do you mean?" Xuanyuan Fu felt that only such an intelligent woman could be worthy of the crown prince and brother.

Concubine Lian looked at him and said, "The woman you look for in the future, as long as they are well-behaved, they won't get too much attention. I just hope you can be safe and sound."

"Yes." Xuanyuan Fu replied with downcast eyes.

"Then there is Princess Minglan, who is not your good match. King Li is unpredictable, and the identity of Princess Minglan is also unknown. You'd better not provoke her." Concubine Lian looked at him and said, "Prince Princess is a You have a clear mind, but men and women are different after all, you should be less close to her in the future, so as not to cause trouble to your upper body."

"Mother and concubine, the prince and brother will not misunderstand." Xuanyuan Fu said helplessly.

"But what about others?" Concubine Lian whispered, "It's hard to guarantee that there won't be any gossip."

"My son has written it down." Xuanyuan Fu replied with downcast eyes.

"I think the young lady from Mrs. Li's family is pretty good, gentle and virtuous, knowing how to advance and retreat, such a woman is suitable for you." Concubine Lian looked at him and said.

"Mother Concubine..." Xuanyuan Fu approached her and said, "Son, I don't want to be too hasty."

"You have reached the marriageable age. Even if you don't want to, the emperor will make the decision. It's better for you to make a decision first, lest the emperor point out some unsatisfactory things to you, which will hurt your feelings instead." Concubine Lian patted him said with his hand, "Could it be that you already have something you like?"
