Chapter 385: ask for it

"Niang, the slave and maid found Xueran." Mingying held Xueran in her arms and walked in from the door, and found that the atmosphere in the room was wrong, and walked to Du Xuechun's side with the cat in her arms.
"You just came back. Take a look at Concubine Xian's injury. She just got her wound." Du Xuechun looked sideways at the maid behind Mingying with a trace of majesty.
"Mother, how are you?" The handmaid hurriedly walked to the bed and opened the quilt under the cover. She didn't see any blood stains, she was relieved.
"Niang Niang, the wound has been scabbed, and it will heal soon. Don't move around. The slave and maid will get the medicine."
"Hmm." The sweat from Concubine Xian's head fell on the pillow, melted into the pillow, and disappeared.
Seeing this, Du Xuechun glanced at Mingying beside him, teased Xueran for a while, and got up and left.
Walking on the road of Kunning Palace, Mingying saw that there was no one everywhere, and whispered in her ear quietly, relaying what she knew.
"It looks like the palace lady named Ying'er is dead."
Du Xuechun raised his head and stopped, looking up at the blue sky, with an inexplicable expression.
"Niangniang, what should I do next?" Mingying was shocked, and then staggered the subject.
"Mingying, is there anyone in the palace who owns cats besides Concubine Xian?" Du Xuechun retracted his mind and looked sideways at the person standing beside him, her beautiful eyes with puzzlement.
"This..." Mingying thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out.
"There is a golden silk cat in the queen dowager's palace, which was given to her by the subject country." A male voice came from the other side, with a little doting.
After Du Xuechun heard it, the corners of her lips twitched, and she turned around with a smile, looking towards the source of the sound, and saw Feng Xuanche standing there, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, making him more handsome.
"Why is the emperor here?"
"I just processed the official document, I heard you are here, so I came to look for you." While speaking, Feng Xuanche walked to her in two or three steps, took her hand, and leaned over to see her eyes full of spoiling. .
"I have arrived at the palace gate of Concubine Xian, won't the emperor take a look?" Du Xuechun lowered her head shyly, joking with a slightly hot face seen by his too hot eyes.
"She is a sinful concubine, I still won't go. In contrast, it's more important to stay with the queen." Feng Xuanche scraped her nose very fondly.
Du Xuechun's beautiful eyes glanced around, just to see Jinzhong and a group of eunuchs standing not far away, with a touch of red on his face, and deliberately changed the subject.
"You said that there is also a cat in the Queen Mother's palace?"
Seeing her shy appearance, Feng Xuanche stopped teasing her, looked at her solemnly, and nodded slightly.
"Why never heard of it?"
"This cat is a peculiar breed. It is golden all over and rarely comes out, so you don't know why you ask?" Feng Xuan Che looked at her.
"Go back to Kunning Palace." This is not the place to speak, Du Xuechun looked around.
"Ok."
In the Queen Mother Palace.
"Niang Niang, have some snacks." Su Lian walked in with a plate of exquisite snacks, and saw the Queen Mother reading a book, her expression inexplicable.
"Su Lian, did you receive a letter from Concubine Liang today?" The queen mother did not lift her eyelids, flipping through the book in her hand, echoing the entire house with a majestic voice.
"I can't hide anything from you, I have already received it." After that, he put down his snack, took out a blank letter paper from his sleeve, and handed it to her.
"No, it's nothing more than letting Ai's rescue her come out." The queen mother swept the letter paper in front of her eyes, then took it back and continued to look at the book in her hand.
The limelight in his hair shook from time to time, the jade bracelet on his hand made noises, and the room was silent for a while.
Su Lian tried to speak a few times, but he wanted to talk, and he was afraid to disturb the Queen Mother's interest.
"You have been with Ai's family for many years. If you have anything to say, why bother about it."
suddenly--
The voice of the queen mother broke the silence in this room, but it shocked Su Lian's heart.
"Queen dowager, the old slave heard that Mingying next to the queen went to various palaces to find the amount of Shu brocade." Su Lian didn't care at first, but it happened that the puppet was...I had to guard against it.
"What did you say?" Hearing the words, the queen mother leaning on the soft collapse suddenly raised her head to look at her.
"Shu Jin, you have already rewarded the concubine Liang, that puppet..." The next words are self-evident.
The queen mother groaned for a moment, put down the book in her hand, took a sip from the carved celadon teacup, and then twisted a plate of snacks, a little careless on her face.
"Queen dowager." Su Lian was a little worried when she saw her not speaking.
"Su Lian, this is a bit bitter, what should I do?" The queen mother interrupted what she wanted to say.
"Sweet is that." Su Lian has been with her for many years and she has understood her thoughts.
"Recently, what objection does General Meng Ya have?" The queen mother ate a snack, and suddenly remembered something.
"I'm still in a relationship with Prime Minister Du, and I heard that Hui Lai's Shu brocade is also one foot short." Su Lian heard the Queen Mother mentioned General Meng Ya, and then remembered the situation reported by the eyeliner in the palace.
"Yeah..." The Queen Mother only replied softly and stopped answering.
The room fell silent again.
Kunning Palace.
"If Mingying is right, that palace lady is already dead." Feng Xuanche hesitated after hearing the whole story. According to the Queen Mother's method, the palace lady was already dead.
"But this corpse?" Du Xuechun narrowed his eyes and leaned in his arms.
"Heh, naturally I was hidden, and the queen mother is so fierce that she will keep everything. This Ying'er is the evidence, on the other hand, Du Qingheng..."
Speaking of her, Feng Xuanche felt impatient in his heart, and he was uneasy for a moment.
"She also obeyed the Queen Mother, she didn't have this mindset in terms of scheming." Du Xuechun's evaluation of Du Qingheng was also a bit silly.
"Next, I will find a scapegoat, or hide it, so that you can't be found." Feng Xuanche took her hand and put it to his mouth and kissed.
"But I have found it, and I will find the trace to her." Du Xuechun's face flushed, and he took his hand out of his.
"Oh, then it depends on who is unlucky. There must be one victim." Feng Xuanche said indifferently.
"Your concubine, do you care so much?"
"Why do you care, these women are forced to me by them, what to do with me when they die?" Feng Xuanche only has the person in his arms, as for others, no matter what they are.
At the beginning, they also forced themselves into the palace, and this is the price.
Thinking of this, he kissed Du Xuechun, the room was full of ambiguous breath.
Early the next morning.
Su Lian received the information from the eyeliner, and quickly walked into the Queen Mother's bedroom.
"Queen dowager, it's not good."
"What's the panic?" The queen mother who was chanting frowned and was suddenly interrupted. She was very unhappy. Her muddy eyes watched as she was walking towards her with anger.
"Queen dowager, people in Xianfei's palace are looking for a maid named Ying'er everywhere." Su Lian suppressed her breathing, trying to be as steady as possible.
"Ying'er? Who?" The queen mother turned the bead's hand for a while, looking at her suspiciously.
"Niang Niang, you forgot..." Su Lian whispered in her ear.
The queen mother's eyes opened suddenly, and she stared at Su Lian beside her with a chill on her lips.
