Queen, don't be too arrogant

Chapter 133 He Is Protecting Her (2)
But not long after she walked out of the bedroom door, she only heard Haoxue's voice: "Mother, Concubine Zhao Gui is here!"

Concubine Zhao?Zhao Linlang?
What is she here for?
She sent someone to assassinate her, and she hasn't settled the score with her yet, but she came to find her first, could it be that she came to find fault again?

Thinking of this, Xie Jingran couldn't help thinking of what Murong Xuanyan did to her just now.It seems that these two people are really a perfect match, they both like to make trouble out of nothing so much, and it seems that she guessed well, Murong Xuanyan is so active in getting her back to the palace because he wants her to play with Zhao Linlang.

Since she wants to play so much, then she can just play with her!

She walked outside together with Haoxue, at this time Haoxue suddenly turned her head to look at her, her eyes were a little red: "Madam, you disappeared suddenly that time, I miss you so much! Fortunately, you finally I’m back, this servant is really worried to death..."

Seeing Haoxue's appearance like this, Xie Jingran couldn't help being moved, so she patted her on the shoulder and smiled: "Okay, don't be like this anymore, it's not life and death, so don't cry like this! By the way, in our Did anything happen in the palace during the time you left?"

When Haoxue heard Xie Jingran say this, she hurriedly stopped her tendency to continue crying, nodded and said, "Of course something happened! Speaking of which, this servant feels very strange too!"

"Oh, what the hell is that, tell me quickly and let me hear it!"

Hearing what Haoxue said, Xie Jingran's curiosity was also aroused, and she didn't know what could make her feel strange.

A puzzled look appeared on Haoxue's face, and she said: "Your Majesty, I don't know why, in the past few days when Your Majesty has disappeared, Concubine Zhao Gui is quite different from before. Although Concubine Zhao was really domineering in this palace before, , but still don't want to make the whole palace dirty, no matter what kind of conspiracy is used, it is done in secret, let alone do those things that are provocative in front of everyone, but in those days... the slaves really don't know, why Concubine Zhao will do many things that she has never done before..."

She frowned and recalled: "Originally the relationship between Concubine Zhao and Concubine Chen was not too bad, especially Concubine Chen's father was also a high-ranking official in the court, and Concubine Chen was not too favored, so Concubine Zhao did not go looking for it too much." Concubine Chen's troubles. But a few days ago, the emperor went to Chen Guifei's palace to drink tea, and Concubine Zhao led people to find trouble with great fanfare. But Concubine Chen is not easy to mess with. When it is time to fight, it is the emperor who will come forward to resolve this dispute."

Hearing what she said, Xie Jingran couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Isn't Zhao Linlang a very shrewd master, who always pays attention to uniting the other concubines to eliminate those who threaten her.

But now, why did she want to destroy the Great Wall again and do such a thing?

Seeing Xie Jingran's puzzled expression, Haoxue suddenly said again: "Actually, I have heard about the reason for this matter, but I just don't know if it is true..."

Seeing her stammering like this, Xie Jingran was really anxious, and hurriedly asked: "What is the reason, tell me quickly!"

"Yes."

Haoxue responded, and said, "Actually, the reason seems to be related to you, Madam!"

"It's about me?"

Xie Jingran frowned and asked, I was not in the palace at that time, what dispute did Zhao Linlang have with that Concubine Chen, and what did it have to do with me?

"That's right!" Haoxue's expression suddenly became a lot of gossip, "I don't want to hide my mother, I heard that since my mother disappeared, the emperor has never been to any concubine's palace, nor has any concubine to sleep with me A few days ago, Chen Guifei didn't know what to tell the emperor, so the emperor came to her palace. Although she just drank tea, compared to any other concubine who was neglected, this was undoubtedly a great favor Yes! That's why Concubine Zhao's jealousy gave birth to hatred, and she did such a frustrating thing!"

Hearing her words, Xie Jingran couldn't help but feel a little throbbing in her heart, and asked in a daze: "You said...during the time I was away, Murong...the emperor didn't invite any concubine to sleep with him?"

"That's right!" Haoxue nodded, "So now everyone in the palace is spreading rumors that you have won the emperor's only favor, my lord! The emperor can do this for you, it really makes all the women in the world, They are all extremely envious!"

"You... are you telling the truth?"

Xie Jingran couldn't help being a little confused, according to what Haoxue said, it seemed that Murong Xuanyan was really infatuated with her, that's why he guarded her like jade, but according to his behavior in front of her, is all this possible?
If he really liked her, he wouldn't do such things that hurt her, but for Haoxue...

Seeing that Xie Jingran bowed her head and remained silent, Haoxue smiled and said: "Your Majesty, all of this is of course true. Although no one knows the real reason, it is rumored in the whole palace! The Emperor used to like Concubine Zhao Gui the most. But since your empress entered the palace...although Haoxue is only a court lady and has never experienced any love for children, Haoxue can really see that the emperor has extremely deep affection for empress!"

He will have a deep affection for her?

In this case, I'm afraid she will never believe it for the rest of her life, right?She couldn't help laughing at herself and said: "Since you have never loved anyone, how do you know that he has such deep affection for me? And those are just rumors after all, and they can't be taken as true."

"Your Majesty, you are wrong to say that!" Haoxue hurriedly said, "My Majesty, haven't you heard a saying that the bystanders are obsessed with the authority? It is precisely because the Empress is also a member of this bureau that no slaves can see it like this." Clearly!"

"Don't say it!"

Xie Jingran only felt more and more confused in her heart. She didn't believe such a statement that the authorities were confused by the bystanders!If Murong Xuanyan really liked her, would he do such a thing that hurt her and insulted her?
If he really liked her, why wouldn't he treat her as tenderly as he did to Zhao Linlang?
So Xie Jingran really never believed that he had the idea of ​​loving her.And what Haoxue said were just rumors, although Shangguan Mingyu also said so, but he is also Murong Xuanyan's friend and courtier, so of course he would fabricate such lies to deceive her.

Thinking of this, the confusion in my heart finally calmed down a bit.Haoxue heard Xie Jingran's words, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, it's because the servant girl was so outspoken that she almost offended her, and I hope that your mother will not blame the servant girl!"
