Chapter 362 Tragic Death

Mo Ziyao's heart was slightly tight. She knew that the Empress Dowager had something to say to her, but it was too much to say. She really didn't dare to say anything for a moment. Then he lowered his head and said, "My concubine is ignorant."

The Empress Dowager looked at her, but was not angry. She just smiled and said, "I heard that you stayed in Tianze Palace yesterday?"

Mo Ziyao felt a little embarrassed. Naturally, she understood the meaning of "staying" at this time. He nodded gently and whispered, "Yes."

The Empress Dowager's expression seemed to be very satisfied, and then she smiled slightly and said, "As the emperor wants, it must be for you to enter the throne. What's more, you made great contributions to saving the driver last night. In terms of heart, it's really not too much to advance. It's just..." she sighed.

Mo Ziyao didn't expect that the Empress Dowager's guess was so accurate and said, "There is no need for the Empress Dowager to say this, and my concubine also knows it in her heart. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to enter the position at this time.

What's more, she also knows that she is already an imperial concubine above 10,000 people under one person. If she wants to enter the throne, she can only be the queen. Even if you don't care about the Liu family, you still have to think that Xuefei was assassinated last night. For Ruan Lingzheng, it is naturally sad.

The Empress Dowager nodded and said slowly, "I've wronged you."

Mo Ziyao only felt shocked and looked at the person in front of her with some surprise. After a long time, she realized it and shook her head quickly and said, "The Empress Dowager said so. It's really a concubine."

The Empress Dowager was silent. After a long time, she shook her head slightly. He looked at her, as if he wanted to stop talking.

I don't know why, looking at her, Mo Ziyao suddenly had a bad feeling. Seeing that the Empress Dowager suddenly said, "What happened in the snowy palace yesterday..."

The Empress Dowager's voice slowly lowered and approached Mo Ziyao and spoke softly. Mo Ziyao only felt trembling all over, and her body couldn't help trembling. She unconsciously took a step back and barely stood against the table behind her.

The Empress Dowager said that the assassin who broke into the Snow Palace yesterday raised a knife at the sleeping Snow Concubine and cut it randomly. When the bodyguard entered, **'s man was already bloody, and his blood flowed all over the ground with his internal organs. He had already died.

What a cruel method! They are indiscriminate, and there is only one purpose, which is to kill Xuefei. Moreover, the worse the death, the better.

The hand holding the edge of the table became tighter and tighter, and Mo Ziyao suddenly felt a rolling in her stomach, and a feeling of wanting to vomit straight to her throat. She quickly reached out and stroked her chest and gasped.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager thought she was scared by the death of Xuefei. She frowned and said, "You can't adapt to it, so don't think about it anymore."

"My concubine is fine." Mo Ziyao tried to hold out a smile.

Naturally, the Empress Dowager can't understand Mo Ziyao's sadness. For her, her physical sadness is not as sad as her heart. Today, she learned that the reason why Ruan Lingzheng looked like that last night was because she saw the tragic situation of Xuefei.

I don't know how sad he was at that time?

He didn't want to kill her. Now, it has made her a pawn for others to start a war. Such a tragic situation is rumored to be an assassin, and I'm afraid no one will believe it. How can an assassin kill someone like this?

"In this matter, the mourning family has said to block all the news, and there are not many insiders in the palace." The Empress Dowager's voice was low, and as she spoke, her hands were clenched fiercely.

Mo Ziyao can't hear the sound of the Empress Dowager's words. Although the news in the palace can be blocked, the important thing is the news outside, isn't it? Since those assassins can do such a thing, there is no doubt that the news will spread to the country as soon as possible.

And this is what everyone is most worried about. It is already impossible to conceal it. In fact, as early as the beginning, they did not really want to be in the alliance with Ruan Nam. Maybe Emperor Yutan sent snow to make peace, and he had a different mind, so this time, it was undoubtedly a good opportunity to find an excellent excuse for the war.

Mo Ziyao seems to be getting more and more confused. Is this done by Ruan Lingheng or a trick directed and performed by Yutan?

Thinking of Ruan Lingheng, his beautiful face flashed in front of him. Since the Empress Dowager's birthday, he left in a hurry and never saw him again. And the incident of falling into the water made her know that he seemed to be sick and heavy, and even the struggle for power seemed to be much more indifferent.

With years of understanding of him, Mo Ziyao has always believed that he should not be able to do such a cruel thing. Because there is no smell of killing from him. What's more, as the noble status of his emperor, if you want Ruan Nanguo's country, you can directly fight down. There is no need to play these sinister and vicious tricks.

He took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "Why did the Empress Dowager tell my concubine?" When she asked, she couldn't help thinking of Xuefei's tragic death, and she felt that her stomach could not stop twitching.

It's really strange. I've seen a lot of human life. But it turns out that he is also a timid person. In the face of such a bloody scene, I still can't stand it.

The Empress Dowager leaned slightly and said for a long time, "Your Majesty, please persuade me more. Now it's an eventful time, and I'm afraid the emperor can't stand it.

Mo Ziyao lowered her head and was silent. Even if she hated the snow concubine in the harem, she would feel palpitated when she heard such a thing. What's more, Ruan Lingzheng?

Suddenly, I remembered the unfinished half of the sentence when he left Tianze Palace today, and I felt sad for no reason.

The two stopped talking, and I don't know how long it took for Mo Ziyao to feel the convulsions in her stomach slowly disappear. He took a few deep breaths and whispered, "I know about this matter. The Empress Dowager, take precautions before it happens, and all frontiers should be under martial law.

The Empress Dowager looked back at Mo Ziyao and nodded, "Of course I know about this. People have been sent to inform King Pingren and... King Pingzhen. She doesn't seem to want to mention Ruan Lingheng's name. It seems that she really loves and hates him. She knows his true identity and wants to kill him, but also wants him to help Ruan Nanguo guard the border.

But listening to the Empress Dowager's tone, he should be fine. Mo Ziyao was slightly relieved and looked up at the Empress Dowager. She said to herself, even if Ruan Lingzheng was confused at this moment, and the Empress Dowager, she was always awake.

The Empress Dowager said, "Be careful when you speak and do things in the palace in the future. Yesterday, I thought that those assassins were familiar with the terrain in the palace, and I'm afraid they were the people around them. Mo Ziyao looked at her in surprise, and she also thought so.

"The day before your reset, there was news that a hidden training place was found in the suburbs of the imperial capital. It should be training dead men." The Empress Dowager gritted her teeth and said.

And Mo Ziyao only felt stunned that Ruan Lingzheng returned from the Snow Palace in advance that day and received the secret news? Urgently asked, "Can you find out who did it?"

The empress dowager shook her head. Mo Ziyao was silent. After a long time, she saw the empress dowager turn around and said, "Go back first. In the past few days, my family will recite the scriptures and recite the Buddha." As she spoke, she knelt down, and then the sound of the wooden fish had come out.

Mo Ziyao finally knew why the Empress Dowager suddenly said she wanted to recite scriptures. It turned out that it was really because of the Snow Concubine. The Empress Dowager is a Buddhist believer. After all, she is taboo for the concubine in the palace to do such a thing.

No matter what kind of holiday she had with Xuefei before, now that she is dead, no matter how big the hatred is, it will drift away with the wind. What's more, Xuefei's death is just a fuse for others to cause war. In the final analysis, she is also an unlucky person.

Then, she remembered Jing Chongyi and the words she said directly that day. After hesitating for a long time, she finally asked, "Empress dowager, I dare to ask you something."

The Empress Dowager did not look back, and the wooden fish in her hand still beat evenly. Mo Ziyao gritted her teeth and said, "Why do you know that Jing Chongyi is a person of the Celestial Empire, but still indulge her and let her spy on my Ruan Nanguo's intelligence and unite with the countries? And her child..."

"Yyao Noble Concubine!" Before Mo Ziyao's words were finished, she was interrupted by the Empress Dowager.

Mo Ziyao was shocked and looked at the empress dowager. When she saw her, she said, "Take care of what you should be in charge of. Don't even say a word about what you shouldn't be in charge of. Don't you understand this truth?"

Mo Ziyao bit her lips, why didn't she understand? It's just that there is going to be a war, isn't it?

After the Empress Dowager finished this sentence, she stopped talking. He knocked on the wooden fish in front of him and said something in his mouth. Mo Ziyao opened her mouth, but still didn't say anything. With a sigh, he finally went out softly.

Returning to Tianze Palace, Mu Qing saw her go in, hurriedly trotting forward and asked worriedly, "Are you all right?"

Mo Ziyao shook her head. What can she do? When he entered, he asked her, "Has the emperor come and went to court?"

Mu Qing nodded: "I'm going down. I came back to eat something and went to the imperial study." With that, he came forward to hold her hand.

Mo Ziyao gently brushed her hand and walked in slowly. At this time, Gan Lin came in from the outside and said to her, "Your concubine, the breakfast is ready. You can use some first." As he spoke, he greeted the maidservant behind him to come in and carefully put the things on the table.

Two dishes and a bowl of white porridge were very light. Mo Ziyao sat at the table and picked up the bowl. For no reason, there was another roll in her stomach, so she quickly put the bowl and vomited to one side.

Seeing this, Gan Lin said worriedly, "Your Noble Concubine, are you all right? Why don't the old slave send you the imperial doctor to have a look?

Mo Ziyao waved her hand repeatedly and said, "No, it's probably because I didn't have a good rest last night. The cold hit my stomach. When I eat something and rest for a while, everything will be fine." After saying that, he picked up the golden bowl again.

In fact, she knows very well that she has been hit by the stomach by cold, which is obviously a pregnancy reaction in the early stages of pregnancy. Reaching out and gently caressing her lower abdomen, she understands that it is very dangerous to let people know that she is pregnant during this extraordinary period.

Look at the end of Xuefei. If she hadn't been born poor, there would have been nothing to use or fear except being favored by the emperor. Oh, fortunately, I was born in poverty, so that I can live safely now. If this hadn't been the case, I'm afraid those claws would have been extended to me long ago.

My stomach has been rolling, and I can't wait to spit out all the overnight meal. How can I have an appetite to eat? However, she thought that when Ruan Lingzheng was so sad, she also came back to eat, because he also knew that she could not fall down at this time, right?

Mo Ziyao thought so, so she stepped forward, sat down and ate.

On this day, when it was almost time, Ruan Lingzheng returned to Tianze Palace.

Eunuch Jin quickly asked someone to help him change his clothes, and he was in a hurry to order the maidservant to get the iced sour plum soup. He shook his head and said, "I don't need it. Let's go down.
