reborn idle wife

Chapter 239 Conspiracy
Cen Ruxue clenched the jade pendant tightly in her palm, feeling her palm was wet. Although it was already winter and the cold wind was blowing on her face, it hurt like ice knives, but right now she felt her whole body was getting hot, so she couldn't help but gently tugged on it. Pulling the collar, letting the chilly wind pour in, he squinted his eyes in satisfaction after feeling the coolness outside.

At this time, the empress is on her lunch break. Regardless of the cold, heat, rain or snow, this habit of hers will never change. Even though she has been devastated by the prince's affairs recently, this woman who has been sitting in the middle palace for decades still shows neither arrogance nor impetuosity. It didn't move at all, which disappointed those who made up their minds to read a joke or wanted to take advantage of troubled waters.

Of course, Cen Ruxue knew that the empress hadn't got up at this time, and she also knew that those personal maids would not dare to wake up the empress. It would be different if she was a crown princess, but she, Cen Ruxue, was just a cousin of the crown prince. What is the identity of the empress? It's not something that can be disturbed by just anyone, so those big palace ladies didn't reply at all, but left her waiting in front of the cold wind howling palace, and someone secretly spit in disdain Well, who doesn't know that this girl from the Cen family is secretly ambiguous with the crown prince. She hasn't become a member of the Eastern Palace yet, but she just wants to flatter the queen. That arrogance is really irritating.

Most of the women in the deep palace are resentful, and the maids are no exception. Nangong Zheng is handsome, and he is the only son of the empress, the prince of the East Palace. That identity naturally attracts countless women to serve the empress. The court ladies are no exception, so they are especially jealous of someone like Cen Ruxue who has successfully hooked up with the prince.

Didn't you ask to see the queen?The empress is very busy, she finally squinted for a while, who would dare to disturb her without winking?Just wait, let's talk about when the empress wakes up!

To say that a woman's jealousy is often unreasonable.

Cen Ruxue stood obediently, and soon her feet were numb from the cold as if she had lost consciousness, but her heart was hot, as long as she thought about what would happen next, she would feel hot all over her body, and could bear it. She couldn't help sticking out her tongue to lick her lips, the inside of her palm was sticky and cold, it was all sweat from her palm, the piece of jade pendant was held in her hand, it had already been held warm.

She took out the pocket watch from her sleeve, opened the cover and took a look, the time was almost up, if there were no changes in the people over there, the people who should come should have come.

The sound of thick-soled boots stepping on the ground soon spread to the ears. The ladies in the palace were unwilling to be exposed to the cold outside in this weather. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the empress to take a nap, the ladies in the palace were all secretly slacking off. Only one little The maid stood outside the palace door with her neck shrunk, staring at her toes in a daze, and she didn't notice anyone approaching at all.

Emperor Jinxuan was wearing a thick cloak, and only brought a close-fitting eunuch with him. The master and servant walked over unhurriedly. The little eunuch who was in charge of the transmission was numb from the cold and was stomping his feet to keep warm. He caught sight of the emperor. Suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, trembling with fright, my feet were unsteady and I fell down on my buttocks and squatted down. Ignoring the pain, I knelt on the ground numbly: "Your servant kowtowed to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live."

"Forget it, it's hard for you in such a cold day." Emperor Jinxuan looked in a good mood, and was provoked by the eunuch's funny look, and waved his hand: "I will ask the imperial dining room to send some ginger later." Give them soup, it's not easy in the cold weather."

The little eunuch burst into tears of gratitude, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Emperor Jinxuan: "Shut up, the queen hasn't got up yet, right? Don't disturb her, I'll just go there by myself."

Now that the emperor had spoken, the little eunuch dared not obey, and obediently shrank aside to make way for the road, and Emperor Jinxuan, who was obviously in a good mood, walked over with strides.

Out of the corner of Cen Ruxue's eyes, she caught sight of a figure in a bright yellow dress and a black cloak coming over, she bit her lip, feeling another layer of sweat gushing out from her palm, she held the jade pendant tightly, her heart beating rapidly .

Just as Emperor Jinxuan came over, he saw a girl wearing a fire-colored fox cloak standing outside the hall. She seemed to have been standing there for a long time, and her figure seemed to be on the verge of falling. I went to wait in the side hall, but those servants were nowhere to be seen, most of them went to find a place to keep warm, but asked a young lady to stand in the cold wind and wait.

As for why he thinks she is a young lady, although the fox cloak Cen Ruxue is wearing is not particularly expensive, ordinary people can't afford to wear it, and it is impossible for her to be a court lady. With her attire, she looks like an unmarried girl Naturally, it could only be the lady of a minister's family who came to visit the queen.

These slaves became more and more unruly. Emperor Jinxuan was very unhappy, and gradually approached Cen Ruxue who was standing there. The moment he had just walked behind Cen Ruxue, the girl seemed to be unable to hold on anymore. He fell down all of a sudden, and it was a coincidence that he fell in the direction of Emperor Jinxuan.

Emperor Jinxuan's first reaction was to take a step back. There is no way. As the emperor, there are too many people who want to take his life. This has become a conditioned reflex. Fortunately, he immediately reflected on it. , these years of horseback riding and archery are not practiced in vain. Although she is getting older, her movements are still fast. She hugged Cen Ruxue before she landed, and what came into view was a sweet and beautiful face. This face looked a little flushed abnormally, and a pair of eyes were tightly closed.

Of course there are guards around the queen's bedroom, but when the emperor came, they were bowing their heads to show respect, who knew that such a thing would happen, suddenly couldn't turn around, but Emperor Jinxuan had already put one hand on Cen Ruxue's forehead , as expected, it is abnormally hot, probably because I have been standing here for a long time and the cold wind blows and I have a fever: "Call the imperial physician!"

As soon as the emperor said a word, the eunuchs rushed to do it, and the chief executive took a step forward: "Long live, should you still come here as a slave?"

Emperor Jinxuan looked at Cen Ruxue's face, fell silent for a while, then suddenly bent down and hugged him horizontally, and entered the Queen's bedroom without saying a word.

The chief executive was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed. Those guards were excited. Could it be that the girl who was made things difficult by the maids is going to be lucky?

When something like this happened, the queen couldn't sleep peacefully during her afternoon nap, and she was quickly woken up by the maid who was close to her. After learning about what had happened, she couldn't help being very angry. She knew about Nangong Zheng and Cen Ruxue. At this juncture, Cen Ruxue went to the palace to beg to see her, most likely because of her son's affairs, but was made things difficult by some mindless court ladies, and even bumped into by the emperor. The ladies of the court who were in charge of the matter hurriedly tidied up their appearances and hurried to the side hall.

When she entered, the imperial physician had already finished prescribing the prescription, but Emperor Jinxuan was nowhere to be seen. The queen's confidant, Nanny Zhou, walked over quietly: "The emperor seems to have taken something from Miss Cen and left, with a very ugly face."

The Queen's heart skipped a beat, a bad premonition came to her mind, she walked quickly to the bed, Cen Ruxue lay there with a red face, she seemed not sober yet: "Is she always like this?"

As soon as Emperor Jinxuan came in, Nanny Zhou rushed over, and stayed with her from the beginning to the end, but she didn't dare to get too close, so she was not particularly clear about what happened: "It seems that I said a few words , but he has not come to his senses, he was probably talking nonsense, but the emperor left after hearing these few words, with a very ugly expression on his face."

The empress felt more and more frightened, why did Cen Ruxue come here, did Emperor Jinxuan already know the news?The most urgent thing is to wake Cen Ruxue up and ask clearly: "Doctor, is there any way to wake her up quickly?"

The imperial doctor lowered his head: "Weichen can use acupuncture, but if you want to cure the disease, you still need to take medicine slowly to restore your body."

"Wake her up first." The queen was very anxious, and Nanny Zhou had already dismissed all the idlers with a wink, and stood aside by herself.

After a few injections, the imperial doctor heard Cen Ruxue snort, opened his eyes in a daze, and saw the person sitting in front of him, who seemed to be a little confused, but the queen couldn't care less: "You go in The palace begs to see me, but what is the matter with the crown prince?"

Nanny Zhou coughed: "Prince doctor, this way please!"

The imperial doctor also understood that there were some things that he had better not be curious about, so he packed up his things and left with Nanny Zhou. It was only at this time that Cen Ruxue really came to his senses: "The Empress? The servants see the Empress."

"Don't be too polite, just tell me what's going on." The queen quickly stopped her: "Did the crown prince ask you to come?"

"His Royal Highness asked the courtiers to visit the empress." Cen Ruxue touched her body, suddenly her expression changed, and her hands groped all over her body: "Why is it missing? How is this possible? It's clearly on me."

"What did you lose?" The queen immediately thought of what Nanny Zhou said the emperor had taken when he left. Could it be that Cen Ruxue was carrying it? "Can't find anything?"

"The crown prince's jade pendant is missing!" Cen Ruxue was about to cry, "Your Highness was wronged, the rice in question was made by the First Prince's people, people outside have found clues, but the Crown Prince has no way to come forward , the group of dragons has no leader, so they asked the courtiers to bring the jade pendant into the palace to ask to see the empress, but why did the jade pendant disappear? It was clearly on the courtier’s body.”

As soon as the jade pendant was mentioned, the queen immediately understood what it was. That thing was originally a representative of Nangong Zheng's identity, and it was a token. With it, she could command the power of Donggong outside. In the hands of Emperor Jinxuan, it is very difficult to get it back. Knowing that the crown prince has such great power, what will Emperor Jinxuan think?
The queen didn't dare to think about it anymore, so she could only change the direction: "Is it really the eldest prince? I know that I have nothing to do with them!"
