The concubine Jinghua first-class poisonous concubine

Chapter 357 The Unrest Continues
the other end.

Chunxiang finally found the familiar path, and heaved a long sigh.

She never thought that she would be so useless after leaving the Hou Mansion.She searched for wild vegetables all the way, but found nothing, and ended up getting lost!At this moment, she was full of worries, wondering whether Gu Xunfang and Su Linger were still waiting for her there, and whether she would encounter any danger.

What makes Chunxiang even more uneasy is that she often hears people say that there will be wild animals in the forest, and the best time to hunt wild animals is at night. Gu Xunfang has no martial arts, and Su Linger is so young. What should I do.

And the first thought that flashed through Chunxiang's mind was that Gu Xunfang would flee for her own life and leave the young Su Linger behind.

Yes, it was really difficult for her to change her opinion of Gu Xunfang.Maybe I really shouldn't leave Su Ling'er in his care.

There were sparks flickering ahead, Chunxiang was startled, this is terrible!Could it be that they were discovered by bandits!

He ran towards the fire all the way, pushed aside the bushes blocking the way, "Ling'er!"

She suddenly jumped out of the bushes, scaring Su Ling'er who was peeling the sweet potato away from the delicious food in her hand.

The corners of Gu Xunfang's mouth were a little stiff, "Why, are you willing to come back?"

Chunxiang looked embarrassed, what a harmonious scene in front of her eyes.Beside the glowing fire, the two sat next to each other, and there were a few roasted sweet potatoes and some wild vegetables on the ground.

"Master Gu... the servant has lost his way..."

"Hmph, my lord has already expected it, and I can't count on you!" Gu Xunfang sneered unceremoniously, and Chunxiang immediately felt that the man in front of him was extremely annoying.

"Big sister, come and eat sweet potatoes! The sweet potatoes baked by big brother are delicious!" Su Ling'er obviously didn't notice the weirdness of the atmosphere, and greeted her with a smile.

Master Gu roasted sweet potatoes? !Chunxiang looked at the bonfire in disbelief, and then at the disdainful man.In her impression, Gu Xunfang should be a lazy person, like Miss Qianjin, who is as untouchable as Miss Qianjin, but she didn't expect him to have this ability.

Just as she was about to look at Gu Xunfang with admiration, Linger beside her added another sentence.

"These sweet potatoes were dug by Linger! Isn't Linger amazing?!" Su Linger raised her face proudly, as if she was waiting for Chunxiang's compliment.

"..." Sure enough!This Lord Gu actually asked Linger to dig sweet potatoes!

Gu Xunfang obviously noticed Chunxiang's contemptuous gaze, and immediately looked away as if nothing had happened, why, I am willing to bake sweet potatoes, she should be thankful!
At this time, Su Ling'er saw the slightly moving baggage on Chunxiang's back, "Big sister, what is this?"

Gu Xunfang raised her eyes, and Chunxiang immediately recalled something, "The servant did not find wild vegetables, but caught a hare."

She opened the bag, and there was a white and fat rabbit inside. Su Linger's eyes lit up, "Wow! What a cute little rabbit!" The little hand with scars hugged the rabbit, Chunxiang's eyes flashed, and there was no deep meaning in it. He glanced at Gu Xunfang.

Does Mr. Gu not feel sorry for such a small child?
"Look, big brother, isn't it cute!" Su Ling'er happily hugged the rabbit and came to Gu Xunfang's side, the man's eyes were shining brightly, "Yeah! Just right, Chunxiang, you know how to roast hares, right?"

"Ah!" Su Linger's eyes widened in horror and she took a few steps back. She timidly looked at the handsome man in front of her, but kept saying that she wanted to roast hares. She no longer had the enthusiasm she had just now.

"..." Gu Xunfang only felt that Su Linger's eyes made him very uncomfortable. This little girl obviously likes her very much, doesn't she?
The purpose of Chunxiang beating the hare is also to eat it.But looking at Su Linger's appearance at this moment, she couldn't bear it.

"Ling'er doesn't want to eat it, does she?" Chunxiang squatted down and looked softly at the little girl in front of her.

Su Ling'er pursed her lips tightly, shook her head deeply, and gave Gu Xunfang a wary look.

"Okay, can Linger give the little rabbit a name?"

"...Then, it's called Fangfang."

"No!" Gu Xunfang suddenly shouted coldly, and Su Linger was so frightened that she hid behind Chunxiang.

"Master Gu, what do you mean by this?"

When Gu Xunfang saw Su Ling'er's appearance, he thought that his tone was too serious just now, "How can I use my lord's words for a mere rabbit?"

"But this servant thinks it's a good name." Chunxiang seemed to be deliberately fighting with Gu Xunfang, and gave Su Linger an encouraging look, "Linger, this rabbit is called Fangfang!"

"……Um!"

What, is this squeezing yourself out? !Gu Xunfang took a deep breath, turned her head and snorted coldly, "Childish!"

Seeing his appearance, Chunxiang smiled slightly, then looked at Su Linger beside her who had recovered her smile, and said softly, "Linger is really amazing."

"What?" The little girl looked up suspiciously.

"It's nothing, Linger, what does Fangfang want to eat?"

Only Chunxiang knew that Su Linger showed her a different Gu Xunfang.This little girl can actually change Mrs. Gu's mind, although it is only a small matter, but Chunxiang understands that Gu Xunfang may just have an annoying mouth.

……

Kingdom Chen, in the Queen's Palace.

The woman on the couch woke up again from the dream. Empress Chen's pale face was covered with thin sweat, she opened her eyes and looked at the curtain above her head. In the dream, the appearance of Emperor Chen's face covered in blood flashed in her mind don't go.

"Hiss..." The pain in her lower body quickly eroded her nerves, Empress Chen couldn't even remember when she fell asleep amidst the pain.

It turned out that Concubine Mei wanted to feel everything she had encountered.Every day, you have to bear this kind of heart-pounding pain, and as time goes by, this pain will not be relieved in the slightest.

Want her to cut off these legs?A deep sneer appeared on the queen's face.

She is not afraid of losing these legs, she just wants to prove to Concubine Mei that if she can endure such pain, so can she!Moreover, the queen also understood that only the existence of this pain can constantly remind herself of the things those people took away from her!
"Ah, ma'am!"

As soon as the inspecting maid came in, she saw Empress Chen struggling to get up, and immediately trotted forward.

"Your Majesty, lie down quickly, but do you want a drink?"

Empress Chen panted lightly, such a simple movement now took all her strength.

"Is His Royal Highness here today?"

"When Your Highness came down, Your Majesty fell asleep, so Your Highness didn't let the slaves wake up Your Majesty." It was already extremely difficult for Empress Chen to be able to sleep soundly.

Not to mention illness, severe turmoil occurred in the court.During these days, members of the Nalan family have been assassinated continuously, and there were even several memorials exposing the Nalan family's corruption, abuse of law and abuse of private power, in order to force the Empress Dowager to remove these people from their positions.

As for the prince, he is still on the cusp.Everyone said that his name was not right, and he was not allowed to interfere in the government. Today, the queen mother is still listening to the government behind the curtain. The prince's party and the second prince's party are fighting fiercely. Unexpected things will happen every day.

These pressures plagued the queen and left her physically and mentally exhausted.But now she can't do anything, and can't go anywhere, so she can only become a burden to the prince unwillingly.

But the queen knew that she could not die.Once he dies, the prince may completely collapse from then on, and it will only benefit Concubine Mei and those people at that time.

Now the palace is full of Concubine Mei's eyeliner, her dark shadows who are good at poisoning.If the Empress Dowager and the Prince hadn't ordered people to guard the place closely, perhaps Concubine Mei would not have allowed herself to survive.The queen knew how difficult it was to keep her life until now.

I don't know what's going on with the County Lord Yongji?What happened to Princess Yongning in the harem of Yi Kingdom?Now, it's too late to regret, they always have to pay the price for the decision they made at that time, but the queen knew that if she did it all over again, she might choose the same way.

Thinking of this, accompanied by severe pain, she couldn't help but smiled wryly.

……

"Your Highness..." In the study, a shadow brought a person.

Xiyue, who was wearing a black cloak, took off her hat, revealing her unpainted face. "See Your Highness."

Dongfang Xu gave a look, and the shadow immediately retreated.

The queen mother finally chose to trust Dongfang Xu and let Xiyue out secretly, but no one knew about it.Xiyue can't appear in front of people without authorization, in order to make others think that the princess is still being imprisoned.

And she always appears in this form, in order to deceive people.

"Look, what kind of medicine is this?"

Dongfang Xu pointed to a pack of medicinal powder on the table, Xiyue went up to it, and stretched out her hand to dip it.

"Your Majesty, this is sausage powder. Those who are poisoned will rot to death." Xiyue immediately knew that the person in His Highness' hands had been poisoned to death again.Now Xiyue has naturally stood on Dongfang Xu's side. She saved his life, and she has completely betrayed Xiao Huang, so at this moment she has to help him wholeheartedly.

Dongfang Xu's face was extremely ugly, his eyes were filled with coldness, Xiyue only felt that the man in front of him was very strange.

After such a thing happened, Dongfang Xu became a completely different person.In his eyes, he could no longer see the spring-like brilliance of the past, replaced by endless tenacity and coldness.

"This is already the tenth!"

The people he single-handedly picked up died so miserably!Dongfang Xu knew that the assassination was still going on, and if the other party didn't kill all the people in the court who supported the prince, he might not let it go.

"Your Highness, Xiyue has something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Say!" Dongfang Xu raised his eyes coldly, this look actually made Xiyue's body stiffen.

Now when she stands in front of Dongfang Xu, she will be intimidated by the invisible pressure emanating from him, and she doesn't even dare to look at him.

"Your Highness, why don't you fight an eye for an eye? In Mingming Palace, there is someone who is easy to attack." Xiyue lowered her head, with a bit of deep meaning in her tone.

Dongfang Xu frowned slightly, "You mean the second prince?"
