Hongli let go of his hand, lay down in the chair behind him, and sighed with a smile, "That's true."
Shen Bi tilted his head to look at his expression: "Did the emperor guess it?"
"Yingluo has always been by the Queen Mother's side, and she is very familiar with everything about the Queen Mother. If she wants to distance herself, this head of yours—" Hongli tapped her head with a finger and smiled, "It's long been gone on her neck. It's gone!"
Shen Bi was angry, but not for herself: "Then you still turn a blind eye to her?"
Hongli was silent for a moment: "I am happy."
"No, the emperor is not happy! Yingluo is not happy either!" Shen Bi looked at him for a while, then suddenly laughed, "I understand, you are deliberately mad at me!"
Hongli: "Nonsense!"
He couldn't deceive himself even with his pretentiousness, how could he deceive Shen Bi.
"Your Majesty, I have eyes and a heart. I can see and distinguish myself. Your Majesty treats me very well, but in your heart, another woman has long lived in." Shen Bi suddenly fell on his lap, Looking at him reverently, just as Kaling Pinga looked at the Buddha he served, "Your Majesty, Shen Bi is willing to help you and test Yingluo's heart!"
Hongli was stunned.
Shen Bi: "In the heart of the emperor, it is normal for concubines and concubines in the harem to be jealous of each other, but in the Huolan family, wives can get along in harmony."
Hongli: "Shen Bi, you..."
Shen Bi held Hongli's hand and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, you are trying to stimulate Yingluo in every possible way, just to know if she values you! As long as Shen Bi cooperates well, you will definitely be able to test out her intentions. ensure!"
Hongli laughed: "I used you, are you really not angry?"
Shen Bi: "You have given me more, you respect my living habits, and sympathize with my homesickness. Such you are worthy of my love."
Hongli: "Shen Bi, I never imagined that you would say such a thing."
Shen Bi gently put her cheek against the back of Hongli's hand, and said gently, "Your Majesty, Shen Bi would like to give you the best in the world."
When the two were in love, Mingyu was sighing in the Yanxi Palace.
"What are you trying to figure out?" She hated that iron could not be made of steel. "Give her a great future, so that she is not a human being around the queen!"
"Are you really the queen of your own?" Wei Yingluo also thought clearly at this time, and smiled, "She used to borrow a knife to kill people, and I'm afraid it will be the same this time. Provoking the emperor's anger. The emperor is very filial to his mother. Of course, he can't blame the queen mother because of a woman. Who will he take his anger on? The queen? Concubine Shu? , as the Queen Mother's confidant..."
After a pause, she said softly, "It is also most likely to sow discord."
If she is regarded as the real murderer of Rong Concubine's death, who will benefit in the end? Not yet.
Mingyu stared at her for a long time, and sighed: "What do you say so much? You just can't bear to start."
Wei Yingluo was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Yes, although Rong Concubine and I are rivals in love, but... she is not guilty of death."
After this incident, Concubine Rong began her carefree life again, riding horses and shooting arrows every day, or dancing in Baoyuelou, living a happy life. But Wei Yingluo didn't dare to take it lightly. She knew in her heart that the queen would never let Rong Concubine go. On the contrary, the more favored Rong Concubine was, the more the Empress would have to attack her.
Wei Yingluo waited quietly until seven days later, when she was summoned by the Queen Mother.
"My concubine respectfully invites the Queen Mother, Sheng An." She knelt down and salutes, looking at the Queen Mother from the corner of her eyes.
The queen mother looked a little restless, and she held the tea in her hand for a long time without drinking, "Yingluo, Master Guangji said, reincarnation reunion, there are only one or two people, I have been thinking about it for a long time, the more I think, the more wrong it is, you are honest Tell me, is the mark on Concubine Rong's face related to you?"
When Wei Yingluo heard this, she immediately understood.
A few days ago, the successor not only sent people to reshape the golden body for the Buddha, but also gave away rice, grain and silver to help the Wanshou Temple soothe the refugees. The eminent monk who folded his waist should also say a "fair word" for her at this moment.
Her mind changed sharply, and Wei Yingluo defended herself with her mouth: "The emperor loves Rong Concubine so much, even if the concubine does not blame Rong Concubine, she will not deliberately deceive the Queen Mother in order to help her."
The queen mother was not persuaded by her words: "Yingluo, you have been by my side for three years, and I know you better than anyone else. You are a girl full of thorns, but you have a lot of hearts. It's hard to guarantee that you won't lie to save Rong Concubine. ."
Wei Yingluo was still arguing, but Aunt Liu suddenly said, "The Queen Mother, Concubine Rong is here."
The queen mother nodded: "Since you don't tell the truth, I have to confront you with Concubine Rong! Let her come in!"
Shen Bi walked in from the outside and put on a flag suit. She was born beautiful, so she looked good in everything she wore. Ordinarily wearing a flag on her body, she immediately looked as beautiful as a seamless sky garment woven from colorful clouds.
"Concubine and concubine respectfully invite the Queen Mother Sheng'an." She saluted the Queen Mother in a proper manner, but her eyes kept looking at Wei Yingluo, which made Wei Yingluo's eyes twitch, wishing to distance herself from her immediately.
Seeing her like this, the Queen Mother became even more suspicious, and said coldly, "Rong Concubine, was what you said last time the truth?"
Shen Bi glanced at Wei Yingluo again, and seeing that she was so unprofessional, Wei Yingluo was sweating anxiously on her forehead, and said to herself, "Why is this little ancestor so unclear, I don't know if you have to pretend that you don't know me at this time. ... No, is it better to pretend to have a grudge against me?"
What made Wei Yingluo burn even more was that Shen Bi hesitated for a while, and suddenly knelt down to the queen mother: "Please forgive the queen mother, Shen Bi did not tell the truth."
Everyone was shocked.
Just as Wei Yingluo was about to speak, the Queen Mother gave her a stern look, glared back what she was about to say, and then said solemnly, "Rongbi, make it clear, if someone instigates you to lie, I will never forgive you lightly!"
Shen Bi hesitated again, and finally gritted her teeth: "Queen Mother, Shen Bi lied to you. They are right, I am indeed a demon."
The Empress Dowager was furious at first, and she punished her and Wei Yingluo severely as long as she explained the matter, but now she was a little stunned: "What the hell are you talking about?"
"Shen Bi was normal when she was first born, but when she was three years old, she kept getting sick. She kept saying that she lived in a crystal room, and she wanted to be warm and dancing every day. I'm all terrified." Shen Bi closed his eyes, as if he was going out of his way, "Afterwards, the lama of the Youfang passed by and cast a spell on me, and it was only normal. He said it was called seizing the baby. life!"
She didn't open her eyes, so she couldn't see the eyes of the people in the room. Aunt Liu was shocked, the queen mother was surprised, and as for Wei Yingluo... she was suspicious.
After talking about his life experience, Shen Bi knocked his head to the ground: "Queen Mother, I know that concealing is equal to deception. If you want to punish, punish me!"
The sound of a bang was the sound of a tea cup falling to the ground. The queen mother had already lost her temper. She pushed away Aunt Liu's hand, walked to Shen Bi's side, helped her up, and suppressed the joy in her heart so much that her voice was too loud. Some trembling: "good boy, you have such an opportunity, it is a gift from God, how can I blame you? It's alright, don't be afraid, ah?"
Shen Bi slowly raised her head to look at her, the smile on her face was gentle and submissive, the kind that the Queen Mother liked the most, but... But it was far from her usual innocent appearance.
Wei Yingluo froze in her heart.
When they came out of the Shoukang Palace, they both breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, they finally passed this level.
"I don't even know what you said just now, who taught you?" Wei Yingluo asked knowingly.
She knew best whether Shen Bi was the reincarnation of Princess He'an, but at best she could only pierce two small moles under the other's lips to deceive the queen mother for a while, but the remarks just now might be able to deceive the queen mother for a lifetime...
Sure enough, Shen Bi replied unsuspectingly, "Your Majesty!"
Wei Yingluo's heart sank, her heart was really like this...
"The emperor was afraid of revealing the stuff, so he told me that!" She didn't seem to see Wei Yingluo's loss, Shen Bi imitated Hongli's appearance and said solemnly: "Shen Bi, remember, when He An was a child, he cried when he took medicine. Crying loudly, the Queen Mother ordered a lot of delicate glazed objects to be placed in the room, distracting her attention with a crisp knocking sound, just like a crystal house. She is very dependent on the wet nurse, and she starts to look for her at dusk. I can't even coax her. By the way, the Queen Mother even made a puppet to make her happy..."
Wei Yingluo said with an expressionless face, "Your Majesty treats you so well."
"You are also very good to me." Shen Bi suddenly turned to look at her, her eyes were sincere and pious, like a believer in front of the Buddha, "You lied for me, of course I can't reveal the truth! You protect me, I also want to Protect you. Don't worry, I will play well, and I will repay you!"
Wei Yingluo hummed a few times perfunctorily, but did not take her words to heart, and she never thought that she would repay her in such a way in the future...
