concubines

Chapter 39
Mo Lan's heart trembled, she said that this method would not work, but the man still didn't believe it.King Qin saw through it so quickly, and now there is nothing he can do about it, only to bite the bullet.

Mo Lan kowtowed heavily, crying and shouting: "Your maidservant is wronged, this maidservant has been completely dead until now, and she has never done anything like that."

There was a murderous look in Zhou Shuxuan's eyes, what he hated most were women who were crying and fussing.The voice was as cold as ice, and said: "Did the king ask you if you are honest? How long have you been in collusion with the Li family? Are you guilty of hiding the point and not talking about it?"

Mo Lan clenched her teeth and did not let go, and tried to identify Miao Li, "I don't know what the lord is talking about, this servant is really just passing things on for the girl."

"Did this king ask you about passing things on? What are you emphasizing? This king will ask you again, how long have you colluded with the Li family?"

Mo Lan clenched her teeth and did not let go, "There are really no servants."

Zhou Shuxuan laughed, and his tone softened a lot, "I know you don't have it, so I asked a few more questions just now. Get up, I just got a jar of wine recently, Wei Hai, go get it."

Mo Lan stood up happily, thinking that Zhou Shuxuan believed her.He looked at Miao Li who was kneeling on the ground with disdain, and said that the prince loves her very much, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that.

Miao Li was very puzzled, Zhou Shuxuan wanted to invite Mo Lan to drink, this is not his character.Also, did he believe that Mo Lan was suspicious of her?Impossible, Miao Li looked up at Zhou Shuxuan.I saw that Zhou Shuxuan's smile was cold, as if he was not as happy as he expressed.

Things are not right, he must have other people's intentions.Miao Li was not in a hurry to complain to herself, she knelt quietly and watched the changes.

After a while, Wei Hai called two people to bring up the altar of wine.This large altar of wine is as tall as half a person.You can smell the tangy wine smell even with the lid on.

Miao Li knew in her heart that drinking might not be such a good thing.

Mo Lan felt apprehensive as she looked at the jar of wine. She would definitely die if she drank such a big jar of wine.He tentatively said: "My lord, this servant can't drink so much wine."

"Drink?" Zhou Shuxuan sneered, "You are welcome. Come here, cut off her hands and feet and throw them inside to make wine for me."

As soon as Mo Lan heard this, she lost her soul. Her knees softened and she fell to the ground, kowtowing non-stop, "I know my mistake, I know my mistake. To be honest, Miss Miaoli and Mr. Li is indeed nothing. It was Mr. Li who forced this thing to the girl, thinking that the girl would be tempted to meet him because of the thing. After all, the concubine of the Qin Palace can't survive, and the prince's body has become like this again .”

She has been in the mansion for so many years, and it is still intact.And it's not just her alone, everyone in the concubine courtyard is like this.

Zhou Shuxuanyun asked calmly: "Is there any more?"

Mo Lan was already trembling with fright, and replied in a trembling voice, "No more, this servant has said everything that should be said, and there is nothing that should not be said, please forgive the death of this servant."

While speaking, Miao Li saw a stream of pale yellow liquid flowing out from the bottom of Mo Lan's skirt, which made her pee from fright.

Miao Li covered her nose and dodged a little, but she dared to come out and do harm to others.

Zhou Shuxuan also saw it, turned his face away in annoyance, and asked Wei Hai to drag him down.

The meal was good, but the sudden appearance really whetted my appetite, and I definitely couldn't finish the meal.

While the sky was still visible, Zhou Shuxuan asked Miao Li to push him around the mansion.People who are bored in the house all day long seem to be lacking in energy, so it is better to be more grounded.

Looking at the moon already hanging in the sky, Zhou Shuxuan stretched out his hand to pinch a leaf, and said inadvertently, "The prince wants to see you."

Miao Li had already guessed in her heart, but she was not sure yet, so she asked: "How did the prince determine that it is the prince?"

"That pendant belongs to the East Palace." Zhou Shuxuan suddenly sighed, "I don't know what the prince thinks? It's too bullying to use that thing to speak out."

Thinking that he is a fool, thinking that he can't recognize the things in the East Palace.

Miao Li held back her smile, and felt sad for him while smiling.The biological uncle does not help the nephew, but also helps outsiders to harm the nephew.

Half a month ago, the crown prince accepted a side concubine at the end of the year.The side concubine was not an outsider, she was Zhou Shuxuan's cousin, the daughter of Concubine Liang's natal family.

This time, let the people from the Li family come out again, is it not the prince or who?What Zhou Shuxuan said was right, he was too bullying, he really treated everyone as a fool.

Zhou Shuxuan was less emotional and more concerned about the business, "Why do you think he wants to see you?"

"It's probably because I had a lot of trouble with the prince recently, and I was thinking about the prince's affairs in the East Palace, so I thought of the servant girl."

The prince might really have some affection for her brother, so what?Having feelings is also a feeling of stealing and plundering, not to mention a human life is tied in it.

Zhou Shuxuan nodded, thought for a while and said, "I think you'd better go see him."

"Why?" Miao Li really couldn't figure it out. It stands to reason that if she knew the prince's plan, she should just leave the prince alone and care who he wanted to see.

Zhou Shuxuan replied solemnly, "Because this king has something to say to him, you also have something to say to him."

"The slave has nothing to say to him."

She saw that the prince had only one thought, which was to kill him, and she didn't want to say a word.

Zhou Shuxuan shook his head, "No, you go back and think about it, you must have something to say to her. By the way, you go and tell that stupid woman and ask her to talk back to the prince and say that you agreed to meet."

What is this called?He had nothing to say and forced her to speak.

Miao Li said reluctantly: "Your Majesty, the servants agreed so easily, will the Prince be suspicious? After all, his plan is really not very good."

"He treats me as a fool, so can't I treat him as a fool? Since he dares to come to my house to make trouble, let him know that it's not easy to make trouble. "

He insisted on this, and Miao Li did not dare to disobey his order.Reluctantly going back to the concubine's courtyard, Zhou Shuxuan showed kindness this time and did not kill Mo Lan on the spot.

She is not very willing to come back here. The days she spent here were the most noisy times in her life.The voices of women echoed in her ears all day long, those women she didn't want to talk to.

She still couldn't figure out why a man would raise so many women in the mansion, didn't she feel panicked?
As soon as she entered the door, a familiar woman approached her, and said in a strange way: "Oh, the girl is back. It's not easy for the carp to jump over the dragon gate and not forget to come back to see us."

Miao Li didn't want to argue with these people, and she lowered her status if she talked too much with them.He walked to Mo Lan's house familiarly, opened the door and entered.

Mo Lan was lying on the bed, hugging the quilt and staring blankly at the front, her eyes were blank, this time she really seemed to be really frightened.

Seeing her appear in the field of vision, she hugged the quilt and quickly shrank to the corner of the bed, crying and shouting in horror, "Don't come here, I don't want to be soaked in wine, I didn't do anything. Girl, girl, go and talk to me. The prince said let him spare me."

If it wasn't for the mission, Miao Li wouldn't even want to look at her, and said without a trace of expression on her face: "The prince didn't say he would kill you."

Mo Lan didn't listen to what she said at all, and kept yelling, "I was also forced to do nothing. I stayed in the palace for so long, and the prince didn't even touch me. There is no hope in life. Girl, everyone is the same. Yes, I just want to find a good way for myself."

A familiar sense of irritability rose in Miao Li's heart, and her face was stained with impatience. She raised her voice and said, "The prince didn't say to kill you now, but if you make trouble again, the prince will definitely let you die without a place to bury you."

Only now did Mo Lan calm down, looking at her with tears in her eyes.

"Go and tell Mr. Li that I am very happy to have collected the things, and I want to thank him in person. Our old place is Chunlai Restaurant."

Mo Lan looked ignorant, and asked after a long time: "What do you mean girl?"

Miaoli was so angry that she wanted to roll her eyes, so she had to explain to her patiently, "There is no special meaning, just follow my words. Do you understand?"

Mo Lan nodded blankly, Miao Li really couldn't stay any longer, but luckily the work was done, she didn't have to stay any longer.

He walked out without stopping for a moment, and suddenly turned back halfway through the walk, "Remember, the prince doesn't know anything about these things. If you dare to tell the prince, the jar of wine is still waiting for you there."

After speaking, Mo Lan still didn't respond.Miao Li sighed and walked out, really couldn't figure out why the prince was so short-sighted, and actually picked such a talent.

She remembered that Mo Lan was good at playing the pipa. In the past, the palace occasionally had guests, and Zhou Shuxuan often asked her to play the pipa before the banquet.It's not so bad, it's too greedy for life and afraid of death.

Miao Li is now very worried about whether she has remembered what he said clearly, that's all, if she doesn't know, she doesn't know, anyway, she doesn't want to meet the prince.

She underestimated Mo Lan this time, she really conveyed her consciousness completely, and received a reply soon.

Zhou Shuxuan said casually: "Since the matter is done, people don't need to stay anymore, tell them to do it cleanly, and don't let the prince's people find out."

He knew that there must be people who belong to the prince in his house, just like there are people from him in the East Palace.Everyone knows when you come and go, so you don't need to check too clearly, as long as the person near you is okay.

Miao Li asked again unwillingly, "My lord, do you really want to go?"

Zhou Shuxuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Do you think I've been joking with you?"

"The slaves dare not."

Zhou Shuxuan's temperament is really not easy to figure out, and when she thinks that he almost understands Zhou Shuxuan, he will change into another look.Anyway, in the final analysis, it's right not to mess with it.

"It's fine if you don't dare. I've made it clear to you that you not only have to meet him, but you also have to dress up as you did at the palace banquet that day to meet him."

Miao Li didn't want to touch that place in her heart, but seeing his frowning, it seemed that he had already made some plans.
