Because Queen Meng was always worried that Lu Yin and Lu Xin would be harmful to her pregnancy, she did not transfer them back to her after reconciling with them. The reason was that she used Meng Guiyu as a cover, saying that they were Meng Guiyu's sect. A bunch of palace people came over and took over the errands of Xuyin and Luixin. At this moment, she was not qualified to go against Meng Guiyu, so she could only make Xuyin and Luxin feel wronged.
And Luyin and Luixin knew her thoughts clearly, but they couldn't help the queen at the moment, so they pretended to believe her.
However, in order to show the importance she attached to them and to prove that she had no intention of betraying Gongsun Xi, the queen would call them here from time to time to talk to them, give them something, and so on.
Of course, at this time, all the aunts and maids sent by Meng Guiyu were present.
When they heard that the queen had summoned them, Xuyin and Luxin didn't take it to heart. When they arrived at the main hall, they saw that the queen had cleared the place, and they knew that there was probably something important going on.
"Xiyin, Luxin, we are in big trouble!" Before the two of them could think about what happened, Queen Meng already said with an ugly face, "You guys just came over and what did Meng Guiyu say to me? He said Chang'an It may not be possible to hold on, and the person who knows the truth about my pregnancy must be silenced in advance... I tried to persuade him, and he agreed to let me take a break... What should I do now? "
Both Xuyin and Luxin were shocked when they heard this. Luxin immediately took a few steps closer and whispered: "Empress! Chongxinhou has never mentioned this matter before. Could it be that... he knows something that shouldn't be done? knew?"
"I suspected that too, but I was thinking, if he really knew something, why would he need to make such a request to me?" Queen Meng said uneasily, "Even if he didn't mention it, he wouldn't have to worry about me at this moment. What, just say that he wants to take a long-term approach to catch the big fish, shouldn’t he just quietly go along with us and then spy on him secretly to catch any clues?”
"How could you ask me directly to your face... and ask me to silence you?"
"Empress, could it be like this?" Xianyin thought for a while and said, "Someone tipped off Marquis Chongxin about your pregnancy problem. But Marquis Chongxin didn't quite believe it, so he used this method. Testing you?"
Queen Meng said: "If that's the case, it's still the same: He doesn't need to show off his cards with me and keep a secret eye on you to see if your actions are suspicious, that's all! Now that he's told us, I... I really don't know who he is. What are you thinking? You can't really think that Chang'an can't be defended, and you're worried that if you can't take all five of you with you when you retreat, someone will talk nonsense in the future, right?"
"Empress, in my opinion, I'm afraid... I'm afraid that Marquis Chongxin's purpose is to target you." Lu Xin was silent for a moment, exchanged glances with Lu Yin, and whispered, "Because of the so-called fear of the nonsense of the slaves. , to ruin your reputation, this is simply deceiving. Think about it, a few slaves are not important people, and no one knows about it outside the Spring Palace. They fabricated it out of thin air and said that there is something wrong with the pregnancy... Who? letter?"
"Especially since King Rong Jing said earlier that His Majesty has passed away long ago, and now His Majesty is a substitute!"
"After you talk about this kind of thing too much, people will get used to hearing it and won't believe it!"
"Not to mention the few slaves, their status in front of Marquis Chongxin is that they are the most hidden, most relied upon and most trusted confidants under Marquis Zheng. They will not be worried about loyalty at all."
"Let's just say that even if the slaves try to betray your secrets... they will speak softly!"
"Why is this situation so urgent that Marquis Chongxin wants to personally force you to silence yourself?"
"I'm thinking, 80%...80% of Marquis Chongxin already knows our secret, and he is deliberately trying to sow discord between the empress and Ah Xi!"
When Lu Xin said these words, her expression was very calm, but her hands hidden in her sleeves were shaking slightly: After all, she is only a teenage girl. Even under the training of Wu Yiying, she is far calmer than people of this age. , faced with a life and death crisis, how could it be possible not to panic at all
You Qi knew without thinking that although Meng Guiyu kept saying that he wanted the queen to silence them personally, if it was confirmed that they were Rong Suihe's people, how could he let them die? Then you must use all possible means to make sure that you can't ask more questions and can't be used for more purposes, and then you will kill him!
This also means that all the torture and humiliation methods they learned in the Wuyi Camp, and even an endless series of humiliations than what they learned, are all waiting for them!
Who knows, when I plan to leave later, as soon as I open the palace door, someone will be waiting for me!
And Queen Meng had no intention of comforting her at this moment, because the Queen herself was very frightened at the moment, and thought to herself: "What Lu Xin said makes sense! Most likely Meng Guiyu already knows the details of my pregnancy. He is so frightened." They want me to silence Lu Yin and Lu Xin now, and I don’t intend to let Meng Li and the others go. This... This is obviously to sow discord and create a rift between me and Ah Xi, Wu Yiying, Mi Zhen and the others!"
"If I don't obey him, there's no chance he'll fall out with me right now!"
"If I obey his words...he...not to mention he may not be willing to let me go because of this. How will I explain to Ah Xi in the future?"
Then she thought of another question, why did Meng Guiyu do this
It is possible that he was very angry when he found out that his cousin had a child with his enemy and had lied to him, and deliberately used this method to torture her.
But considering the current situation, Meng Guiyu might not just be venting his anger, but he might also have other intentions. For example, to sever the relationship between Queen Meng and Rong Suihe, so that the Queen can only rely on herself
"If that's the case, it's obvious that Meng Guiyu still wants to take advantage of me and doesn't intend to embarrass me, at least for the time being?" Queen Meng thought quickly, "After all, I am the queen of Xuan Jing's palace, Meng If Gui Yu wants to support the young master to ascend the throne, given the current situation, of course it is most justifiable for him to be the legitimate son of the palace!"
But Rong Suihe knew very well the origin of the child in his belly.
If Meng Guiyu wanted to do this, wouldn't he be afraid that Rong Suihe would directly announce the life experience of the so-called legitimate son after he found out
Although it is said that Gongsun Xi is very important to Rong Suihe, but in such a big matter, this relationship may not be able to withstand the test!
The most important thing is that Empress Meng and Gongsun Xi were originally innocent, but it was Dong Liang who was worried that the empress would go back to Shanglinyuan and reunite with her elders and no longer be under the control of the Wuyi Camp, so he arranged for her and Gongsun Xi to marry each other. Gongsun Xi had an affair because he wanted to control the queen so that Queen Meng could not burn bridges!
In this case, if Rong Suihe wants to reveal the truth about Queen Meng's pregnancy, it won't be through the words of unknown people like Lu Yin and Lu Xin. That Dong Liang must have kept a lot of evidence!
Meng Guiyu might not have thought of this... What on earth was he thinking
Empress Meng bit her lip and was distressed for a moment. From the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of Lu Yin and Lu Xin in front of her. She felt bad about not speaking anymore. She took a deep breath and calmed down. She said slowly: "If it is true as Lu Xin said, then we We can't just sit back and wait for death... Don't worry about me. Meng Guiyu didn't come directly to have a showdown with me, obviously he had some scruples. Moreover, the court just released the happy news about me, and the people were very encouraged. Ruoguo, now I It has nothing to do with the child in the belly, and the impact on morale can be imagined!"
"Meng Guiyu can even tolerate Shu Zhaoyi, and he will definitely not do anything to me for the time being!"
"Think about it for yourselves, is there any way to leave? If possible, it would be best to inform Meng Li and the others?"
"Where can we move now?" Xianyin and Luixin just sighed and whispered, "Empress, if Marquis Chongxin doesn't get suspicious, it would be normal for us to walk with Meng Li. Now he has saved With doubts in mind, let's go to Meng Li again. Doesn't this prove to him? As for leaving... it was originally possible, but... it can't be used now! "
Queen Meng knew that they were afraid of bringing out more secrets, so she asked Meng Guiyu to catch them all, which would cause a major or even devastating blow to Rong Suihe's eyes in the imperial city. Her heart skipped a beat and she thought worriedly. : "They won't kill me too, right?"
After all, she knew Ge Zhongpeng.
Suxing Xuyin and Luxin had no intention of getting close to her to commit murder. After discussing for a while, they just asked her to deal with Meng Guiyu: "Empress, please follow the instructions of Marquis Chongxin! As you just said, Marquis Chongxin will now Although I made a very false excuse and asked you to kill us, since I haven’t broken up with you, it’s obvious that I won’t be disadvantageous to you for the time being!”
"You just deal with it perfunctorily with him. News came from Axi's side two days ago that it was the commander-in-chief of Western Xinjiang who won a great victory. Although we don't know the specific situation, we can One thing to confirm is that Axi hopes to reunite with you before the baby is born!"
Rong Suihe's great victory on the grassland was spread as quickly as possible to the secret soldiers of the Wuyi Camp across the country. The purpose was nothing more than to inspire people, lest they think that the Western Xinjiang Army was blocked by Na Fuzhen at the Yanbo Ferry. The door to retreat to the Central Plains was closed again. He had a pessimistic attitude towards the Prince of Mi Zhen County and made things worse at the critical moment.
However, Gongsun Xi's promise to Queen Meng was made by the two palace maids in order to make Queen Meng stay in Meng Guiyu's hands for a while longer.
The reason why they didn't kill Queen Meng was not because they couldn't bear it or didn't want to do it. It was mainly due to their distrust of the Queen: after all, Meng Guiyu might have known the truth about the Queen's pregnancy and the true origins of Xiyin and others. , this was what the queen took the initiative to tell them.
They didn't hear the conversation between the brother and sister, so who knows what happened
What if Queen Meng, after listening to Meng Guiyu's words, had the same speculation as Xuyin, and now she is thinking of using herself as bait to deliberately let Xuyin and Luixin try to silence her, and then resist, "it's logical." If you kill Luyin and Luxin, you can tell Meng Guiyu when you turn around. What can you say to the people from Wuyi Camp in the future
Even if the Queen didn't have this intention, they were still worried that if Meng Guiyu had planted someone secretly and could not kill the Queen, but would have completely exposed the fact that the Queen knew important secrets... let's take a gamble!
The two people's eyes met, and they knew each other's thoughts well. Seeing Queen Meng nodding her head uneasily, they moved almost at the same time, and with one arrow, they hit the palace pillar not far away!
When Queen Meng told her calmly, she already had a premonition that the two palace maids were determined to die.
But when I saw it with my own eyes, her pupils suddenly shrank, she trembled, closed her eyes, opened her eyes for a moment, and looked at the soft and slipping body in front of her. She tightly clasped the armrests of the Phoenix Seat with both hands, the backs of her white hands On the upper body, the veins are exposed.
After a long time, after confirming that both Lu Yin and Lu Xin were exhausted, Queen Meng raised her voice expressionlessly to call the people entering the palace.
