Chapter 370 Xia Jingyan Invitation
When Mu Qingya returned to Jingningxuan, she was already close to her son. Leqi was staying in the inner room at that time. After not sleeping for a few days, her eyes turned red and her face was full of fatigue.
Seeing Mu Qingya come in, Le Qi first stiffened, slowly rubbed his eyes, and then jumped up from the ground and said excitedly, "Miss, it's really you. Are you back? Great, great!"
Seeing Leqi's look, Mu Qingya unconsciously smiled: "Well, I'm back. Is everything all right with Jing Ningxuan?"
"Miss, everything is fine here. You don't know how worried I am these days. If such a big thing happens in the palace, I'm afraid it will really be over if you don't show up."
Mu Qingya looked up at **. A person exactly like her was lying in ** with his eyes closed. His face was very pale and his eyes were full of morbidity. It was the shadow guard arranged by Leqi.
"Miss, this shadow guard was arranged temporarily. Fortunately, you came back. There have been many people visiting Jingningxuan in the past two days, and the maidservants have been pushed away. This has not been found. After a while, you really can't stand it."
Mu Qingya nodded, made it to the soft couch beside her, and said, "Just let the shadow guard go back. You will tell me in detail what happened in the past two days."
Although she has been under house arrest and well-informed these days, things are often far from wrong. It's better to do it again so as not to neglect any details.
"Yes, miss, the biggest thing that happened in the palace in the past two days is that the palace people in the imperial concubine's palace were assassinated. From the night of your disappearance, 67 palace people in Cheng'en Hall were killed overnight, and even the parrot raised by the imperial concubine died. It can be said that there was no living place in the whole palace except the imperial concubine. The emperor was very angry and issued a thorough investigation one after another. However, in the next few days, no matter where the imperial concubine changed, the palace people in his palace would definitely have no life after one night. As long as the current palace people heard that they were going to be sent to the imperial concubine's palace, they would simply be killed directly.
Mu Qingya frowned slightly and suddenly asked, "Which palaces has Xia Jingyan changed these days?"
Leqi thought carefully and replied, "First in Cheng'en Hall, then to Yutang Hall, then Mingluan Palace, now in Yuntai Palace."
Mu Qingya slowly played with the jade bracelet on her wrist and frowned slightly: "Who else knows about my disappearance?"
"Except for the maidservants and shadow guards, Zhao Duo knows," Le Qi's face changed. "Miss, what's wrong with Zhao Duo?"
Mu Qingya shook her head: "It's okay, I'm just asking. Where did the rumor come from? Have you investigated it?
"No, the rumor seems to have appeared overnight, and there is no way to investigate it at all. Please forgive me." Leqi is ashamed.
"I don't blame you." Mu Qingya's eyes were faint, but her heart was full of thoughts. "It seems that this incident is specifically aimed at me."
"Miss, what should we do next? Now it's rumored that you are..." Leqi bit his lip and was embarrassed to say what to next.
Mu Qingya smiled and said, "Is it said that I am a demon girl who harms the country? Where and where there will be a disaster, right?
"Yes, miss, don't care about this. This must be a secretly designed conspiracy specifically for you. Miss, you don't have to worry too much. Anyway, Master Anzhi is fine now. If it really doesn't work, let's go back to Yuhan.
"If we can't handle it well this time, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back." Mu Qingya's eyes were slightly gloomy, and she shook her head and said, "Which country, which country is going to destroy the country? Do you think those people in Yuhan will let me go back?"
Le Qi was shocked: "Miss, what do you mean? Are there any Yuhan people behind this?"
"I don't know yet. Let's inform Duanmu Lingyu about the matter first and ask him to investigate it. If no one reaches out to Yuhan, I don't believe it." Mu Qingya said coldly, "Also, don't go to Zhao Duo these two days. Some things don't need him."
"Miss, are you saying that Zhao Duo also has a part in this matter?" Leqi was shocked and sweated all over. After the Miss disappeared, she found Zhao Duo as soon as possible. If Zhao Duo was also the promoter behind it, wouldn't she have harmed the young lady?
Mu Qingya shook her head: "He won't be against me, because he knows Duanmu Lingyu's feelings for me, but it doesn't prevent him from watching from the wall. At this time, step by step crisis, his inaction is even more resentful!"
"Miss, now..."
"Duanmu Lingyu left in a hurry that day, but he had almost arranged the matter before. At this time, he drew everyone's attention away." The person who promoted the rumor first used the things in Xia Jingyan to cause panic, and then pulled the rumors to her. Now she is not afraid to do the opposite and lead the distorted rumors back again!
"Yes, miss, please tell me. I'm going to do it now."
Mu Qingya told Leqi about the plan and watched her go out to arrange it, and her mind slowly sank down. It seemed that this disturbance must not be small.
In the Yuhan Palace, Duanmu Lingyu received a letter from the shadow guard and smashed the blue and white dragon pattern cup on the table after the rain. The shadow kneeling below felt his violent breath, and immediately a cold sweat came out behind him, stiff and did not dare to make any sound.
After a while, he slowly calmed down: "Send another 50 shadow guards to protect the princess. Once the vicissitudes of life happen, you must bring the princess out!" If the development of the matter is difficult to control, assassinate Mo Ao at all costs, kill Mo Junyan, and help Mo Junqing to take office!"
At this time, there are not many valuable people. These 50 film guards were carefully trained by him. If you meet ordinary people, you can definitely take a hundred.
At the door, the announcement sounded. Duanmu Lingrui slowly walked in.
When Duanmu Lingyu came back from Canglan, Mu Qingya put his blood in the jade bottle and asked him to bring it back with the jade pendant. After coming back, he rescued the sixth prince Duanmu Lingrui with two things.
At this time, although the sixth prince's body is still relatively weak, it has generally nothing to do with it: "I have seen the emperor."
"Brother, don't be polite."
Duanmu Lingrui looked at the kneeling shadow guard: "But there is something wrong with Miss Mu?"
Duanmu Lingyu nodded, with a substantial anger in his tone: "Well, someone passed her on as a witch."
Duanmu Lingrui frowned tightly: "Is this... a witch of disaster?" Hearing this, she couldn't help shaking her head. Mu Qingya's elegant appearance is beautiful, but she is beautiful but not demonic. Her expression is as cold as a mountain snow lotus, and her body is full of unparalleled nobleness, which only makes people feel that she is a nine-day mysterious girl who came down to earth, and she is not a national demon.
"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"
Duanmu Lingyu smiled coldly: "I am not in the court during this period, so that a large part of them have forgotten what they should do. Do you really think that if you send an unruly woman into my harem, you can do whatever you want and ascend to the sky in one step?"
A woman who is not three or four? Duanmu Lingrui was amused in his heart. Now in the emperor's harem, there are only a few promises to pick girls, and the high positions are An Luoli and Liu Yingxue. However, when did those two become extraordinary women?
"Is the emperor going to clean up the court?"
"Yes, I didn't care about those people because I thought they couldn't turn over any storms. I didn't expect them to be unfavorable to Qingya. In this case, don't blame me for being rude."
"What about Canglan? Can Miss Mu handle it well?
Duanmu Lingyu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Although I don't want to admit it, the distant water can't quench my thirst. I plan to support Mo Junqing to ascend the throne."
"What?" Duanmu Lingrui was shocked that this throne is not what you want. I don't know how much flesh and blood to pay. In addition, Mo Junqing likes Mu Qingya, right? Does the emperor help his rival like this?
Seeing his expression, Duanmu Lingyu smiled bitterly: "Brother, I know what you think, but I can only do this now. It is because Mo Junqing is also in love with elegance that I can rest assured. As long as it is elegant and safe, will I still be afraid of a competitor? The huge Yuhan finally came to my hands, not to mention a Mo Junqing?
Listening to Duanmu Lingyu's bold words, Duanmu Lingrui was stunned for a moment, and then his heart rose to admire him. The emperor has a real imperial heart! I hope things will calm down quickly and let the couple finally get married.
In the Yuntai Palace, Xia Jingyan sat in **. Her face was pale without a trace of blood, and her thin body became weaker and weaker. She gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief and looked up at Mo Ao beside her. Her eyes were full of words and stopped, and she wanted to cry first: "Your Majesty, my concubine... I'm sorry for the emperor, and Please leave."
Mo Ao frowned: "Don't worry, I will definitely find the murderer."
Xia Jingyan's eyes flashed: "Your Majesty, my concubine's life is thin, and I can't bear the name of the imperial concubine. Please remove the title of my concubine imperial concubine."
"What is this? You are my concubine, and now you are even more valuable as the imperial concubine. Where did you come from? But there are people in the palace chewing their tongues?"
"How come?" Xia Jingyan looked more and more sad. She bit her lower lip tightly and looked up with a bright smile. "Your Majesty, my concubine was wrong. The emperor said that my concubine can afford this position, and my concubine can naturally bear it. I heard that the sister of the Jade Concubine lives next to Yuntai Palace. Is the emperor not sure to sit down?
Looking at Xia Jingyan's forced smile, Mo Ao frowned, came forward to hold her in his arms, and a trace of doubt in his heart dissipated.
Xia Jingyan leaned on Mo Ao's chest and called with a little satisfaction: "Your Majesty..."
Mo Ao accompanied Xia Jingyan for lunch, but he had no intention of staying overnight. Although he had no doubt about Xia Jingyan in his heart, he would not joke about his life.
After Xia Jingyan sent Mo Ao away, she turned around and dropped the teacup and said coldly to the trembling little maid, "Go and invite Princess Mu, and say that I have invited the princess to come and talk."
"...yes...yes, mother-in-law, I'm going...I'm going..."
Xia Jingyan's eyes were cold. She looked impatiently at the maid who was about to faint and said, "Useless things!"
