The First Empress - Chapter 197
Chapter 197 His Heart Was Like a Tiger Wolf
Today, it was the time to pay respects to Empress Kun De Palace as usual. Because it was Ji Xia, the roses had also bloomed, and Nan Yan’s new tea had also been delivered to the palace. Ji Zhu Hua had the tea cooked by the little school in a small red mud stove and sent them over one by one.
Linglong sat on Ji Zhuhua’s right hand, so she was the first to receive the tea. She only smelled a strange fragrance that almost made one’s bones soft. However, this fragrance contained a sudden sweetness. Linglong was about to raise her cup when Ji Zhuhua signaled for Linglong to stop. Linglong was watching the tea blooming in the cup. He couldn’t help but be frightened by Ji Zhuhua and quickly placed the tea cup on the table.
Ji Zhu Hua smiled and placed one after another on a red tray. Pei Lan took the silver needles over and helped Ling Long try the tea. “Your Highness is worried, so don’t worry, Your Highness Zhao Yi. It’s not too late to try it first.”
Linglong didn’t expect Ji Zhuhua to be so cautious. Ji Zhuhua was naturally afraid that someone would harm Linglong. Now that Linglong was with Ji Zhuhua, Ji Zhuhua naturally couldn’t get away with anything, so she was a little scared.
‘”This tea is Jun Shan’s Old Lord’s eyebrows. This palace naturally has its own reasons for wanting to give it a try. There are many people here, and this palace is only afraid that someone will use methods in front of this palace. You must know that the current concubines are different from the past, and their hearts are separated by their bellies. Who knows what is going on in their hearts?” As Ji Zhuhua spoke, he lifted the cup of tea. Linglong also placed the cup of tea on her nose. She felt that the sweet fragrance penetrated into her heart and spleen, and she had heard of it for a long time.
Linglong drank a cup of tea. Then, Shi Shi Ran put the tea cup away. Concubine Guyi hurriedly said, “Your Highness is a rare clever person. If Your Highness were to be careful, the harem would probably be filled with surging winds and clouds. It’s exactly as Your Highness said-” Concubine Guyi’s hair was set off by temples. He glanced at Ji Zhu Hua and said, “Your Highness was right. It’s just that no one knows who will harm who. I’m afraid that Your Highness Zhao Yi’s fetus will not be safe in the end.”
Linglong Zhengpan looked at Gu Yifei with a meaningful smile. Linglong looked at Ji Zhuhua like a star. Ji Zhuhua said coldly, “This palace only tells all the sisters that if anyone wants to have this baby, then carefully study this palace. This palace and Bu Zhaoyi are the same now. As long as they offend Bu Zhaoyi, they will offend this palace and the Emperor.”
Hearing this, Concubine Guyi couldn’t help but cover his lips. “Your Highness is lacking again. There are countless Zhao Yi in the Six Palaces right now, and there are also those with high authority. It is reasonable for someone to harm Zhao Yi. Moreover, the women in the harem are the most capable of harming people. Your Highness hasn’t seen any methods in all these years. In the end, this can’t be done once and for all.”
Hearing this, Ji Zhuhua was a little angry. He looked at Concubine Guyi and said, “According to what you said, there’s nothing you can do. This won’t work. It’s also very difficult. Could it be that this palace wants to build a Golden Thread Palace to lock Linglong inside and isolate her from the rest of the world?”
Imperial concubine Gu Yi smiled. “Nanny, you’re joking. I just want to tell you that there are too many tricks in the harem. I’m also trying to warn little sister Zhao Yi … Forget it, this concubine’s advice is unpleasant to the ear. As long as you and little sister Zhao Yi don’t blame this concubine, this concubine will be happy.” While Gu Yifei was chatting and laughing, she was the only one who was courteous in the world. Linglong knew that Gu Yifei was helping her, so she hurriedly kowtowed to the ground. “Empress, I beg you to help me keep this baby alive. After all, she is a dragon descendant, Empress …”
Ji Zhuhua stretched out his hand and said, “Pei Lan, go and help Sister Zhao Yi up. This palace will naturally help protect this baby.” That peerless elegance caused Linglong to feel a sense of stability in her heart. Outside the window lattice, the fiery wind projection fell like dust.
Linglong glanced at Gu Yifei. Gu Yifei’s clear and clear eyes were also looking at her. Linglong secretly nodded in gratitude.
After drinking the meeting tea, Linglong left early. As soon as she walked out, Concubine Guyi walked over. Linglong hurriedly thanked her, “Thank you so much, Your Highness.” Concubine Guyi was not proud of himself, Luo Hua gently helped Ling Long off her shoulder. The pair of bright eyes looked at Linglong and said, “To tell you the truth, This palace was drugged back then. The women in the palace are the most unique. The agate stone they gave to this palace actually contains musk. It harmed this palace’s childbirth. Speaking of which, this palace only remembers the past. You and this palace are good friends. This palace has no choice but to remind you that nothing else matters. It’s just musk. You need to be careful. ”
Linglong listened carefully and secretly remembered that not long after, she had already arrived in Yunluan Palace.
Now that Linglong was pregnant, Hui Qi had arranged a lot of hidden guards. However, these people could not be seen by ordinary people. On this day, Linglong had just arrived at the Cloud Phoenix Hall when she heard the voice of the hidden guards catching a young palace maid. The young palace maid was about to jump into the well after running two laps around, but the hidden guards caught her.
Qin’er was not happy, so she walked over and grabbed the palace maid with her hand, “You’re so angry, why did you run away?”
At this time, Linglong also walked over. She never punished the little palace maid. She didn’t stop Qin’er from doing anything. She just watched coldly. Moreover, this little palace maid was really unfamiliar. She had never seen her before.
“Concubine, just sit there and wait for servant to properly torture this shameless one.” Qin’er put a stool for Linglong, and Linglong sat and watched.
“If you tell me the truth, don’t hit me. Otherwise, I’ll only beat you until your skin is torn open.” Qin’er raised her voice, The young palace maid shook her head timidly and looked completely frightened. “Good aunt, just let this servant go. This servant is on duty in the outer court. I came here today to help deliver tea. This servant is a rough servant girl, so she naturally has no face.” As she spoke, she kowtowed repeatedly. Linglong looked at her sleeve. Her eyes did not blink for a moment. After a long time, she already had some concerns in her heart.
Qin’er refused to forgive her and spat, “You are the rough messenger girl. Not to mention your clothes, just this mouth is also amazing. What rough messenger girl? It’s just a lie. Little Zhuo Zi has come over and is very familiar with her mouth. Don’t slack off.” Linglong looked at her. Xiao Zhuozi had already come over and tucked her horseshoe sleeve into her elbow. With a slap, she landed. Linglong sneered and looked at what this little palace maid was going to do.
The palace maid was probably frightened. Seeing this slap coming, it was clearly thunderous and rainy. She didn’t expect to cry. She kowtowed heavily on the ground. Linglong stood up and said, “Forget it, it’s just a rough messenger girl. You guys will also make things difficult, right?” Linglong waved her hand, and Qin’er looked at Linglong with dissatisfaction, “Concubine, this palace maid servant has never seen before …”
“You’ve never seen so much before. Let this child go …” Linglong smiled.
Qin’er could only sigh. The little palace maid thanked him while she went. When the little palace maid walked out, Linglong winked at Xiao Zhuozi and the Shadow Guard and said, “Follow me, how could there be such a dexterous and rough messenger girl?” Linglong smiled elegantly and said, “I’m afraid that the one sent by the palace to poison us is unknown.”
Not long after, the Shadow Guard had already escorted this little palace maid in panting. Linglong was still sitting on the spot. This time, it was different from before. She said coldly, “Which palace came to play tricks on me? I wonder which one of them came here to look at me. I don’t know if they were going to torture me properly or not. What did they come here for?”
Linglong stood up like a tree, looking down at the little palace maid. This little palace maid’s entire body trembled. Linglong asked, “Aren’t you going to tell me?”
Xiao Zhuozi waved his horseshoe sleeve and said, “This little hoof threw a small porcelain bottle outside. The Empress guessed how to find it. It was dug out from the flower pot when she first arrived in Yunluan Palace in the past. It was all … musk.”
Linglong’s heart became even clearer. She sneered and said, “Very good, Musk. This is for this palace. Xiao Zhuozi, let the people from the Shanggong Bureau see who this young palace maid is.”
“There’s no need for Your Highness to ask. Please move your toes. Servant will tell Your Highness that servant knows that you can’t hide anything from her.” The little palace maid was obedient. Linglong had just taken a step away and felt that it was inappropriate. She sat down and said, “If you want to say it, just say it. If you don’t say that the crocodiles in this palace will let you say it, you can rest assured. Lord Li of the Ministry of Justice has plenty of methods. Even if he scratched you alive with 5,000 blades, he wouldn’t kill you. Do you understand?”
“This servant, this servant should still tell the Empress–”
“Look at this palace and see if it will come to you. Isn’t it a big loss for a small reason for you to charge over to this palace?” Linglong raised her eyebrows and lifted her lips, saying, “Did Concubine De appoint you, or did Lan Sou Yu appoint you, or …” Linglong’s face seemed to be still emitting a faint splendor.
However, she only heard a miserable smile, followed by a blunt “bang” sound. The little palace maid had already crashed into the ground. It seemed that she had also used up all her strength. Qin’er couldn’t help but be stunned and hurriedly stopped in front of Linglong.
Qin’er was half-concealed, but Linglong had already seen the woman behind her. The little palace maid had already broken her head. “Your Highness, go back. Leave this matter to servant. Servant and Xiao Zhuozi will definitely give your Highness an answer. Don’t look at it anymore.”
Linglong walked away from the beautiful lotus feet and said, “I’ll leave it to you and Xiao Zhuozi to investigate carefully. There are more and more people in the palace who don’t have any laws. Just report it to this palace at that time. This palace will definitely not open one eye and close the other.”
Linglong also felt that she had changed. but completely different, In the past, his celadon porcelain like water would not be like this at all, But now, killing people like grass, There was no need for a concubine or servant to feel the slightest bit of emotion because of her death, She supported the scarlet pillar into the inner hall. At this moment, Du Zhaoyuan walked in and spat, “What is the good thing? It should be to kill the nine races. It’s just a servant who caused trouble in Sister Zhaoyi’s place. She’s so arrogant. I wonder which palace Master of the Fox Charm Master taught her to do so.”
Sitting in the inner hall, Linglong heard Du Zhaoyuan’s voice and asked, “Who is it?”
“It’s Du Zhaoyuan from Changping Palace,” said an internal attendant beside him.
“Let her in,” Linglong said.
Du Zhaoyuan smiled and walked in. After greeting Linglong, He sent over a box in his hand. Linglong didn’t know what it was, Du Zhaoyuan did not dare to continue. She smiled and pulled Linglong’s hand over, saying, “Does Your Highness know that Du Ping in the Taiyuan Hospital is my twin brother? He said that it would naturally be beneficial for Your Highness to take this Antai Pill. It would be good if Your Highness did not suspect it. If Your Highness suspected it, she would just go find a few doctors to take a look.”
Linglong could not refuse Du Zhaoyuan. Du Zhaoyuan had always been a heartless person and seemed to have no reason to harm her. At this time, the Sheng outside was already busy. She took the box over and kept it.
Linglong Yu said a few words. Du Zhaoyuan was furious and said angrily, “Big sister is a good person. A palace maid like her should have been killed long ago. Don’t leave any corpses behind. Just have the Internal Affairs Department bring over two green dogs to eat.”
Linglong could not see that Du Zhaoyuan was also a ruthless character. She could not help but smile and say, “In the end, she is still a human being. There is no need to do this. Moreover, it did not cause any major mistakes.”
After speaking for a while, Du Zhaoyuan had already walked away. Li Sheng said, “Antenatal medicine?”
Linglong smiled and said, “Leave it. This palace feels that Du Zhaoyuan is someone who can be close to. Although this palace does not dare to eat anything casually, it is probably not a problem for her to dare to send it over openly. This palace looks at the box and the jade bottle inside. Keep it.”
Sheng placed the box in the inner hall.
