C499

Rong Cairen carefully considered his words, "I dare not speak in vain, but my second highness is not like a premature child, so..."

Zhao Pingqing put the silver hairpin back into her hair and said indifferently, "you have doubts, but you are afraid of causing trouble, so you push Li out?"

"Yes." What happened just now made Rong Cai's heart tremble. He didn't dare to be smart in front of Zhao Pingqing. "I know my guilt."

Her attitude made Zhao Pingqing very satisfied. "Li Shi is as stupid as a pig and has no self-knowledge. It's no pity. However, this incident has made our palace see his Majesty's attitude clearly."

Rong Cairen nodded deeply, "although your majesty has lost his memory, he still has great trust in your concubine. You have to be careful, madam."

Zhao Pingqing looked at her with a smile, "is there only one person in this palace who needs to be careful?"

Rong Cairen's eyelids trembled slightly and was about to speak. A slender white hand was on her shoulder, and a cold voice like a lonely soul sounded in her ear. "You think our palace is just a partial imperial concubine, and even your own son can't be raised under her knees. There's not much weight in the palace, right?"

Rong CAI was very surprised. He quickly bent down on his knees and said, "my mother misunderstood me. My mother is the biological mother of your highness, and she is deeply favored by your majesty, my concubine How could you have thought of that? "

Zhao Pingqing qinglingling a smile, "from beginning to end, you want to rely on people, are not the palace, but the queen."

"My concubine..." Without waiting for the talented person to distinguish, Zhao Pingqing lowered his eyebrows and said indifferently, "since my palace has said this, I'm quite sure. Talented people Think about it before you speak

She has always boasted that she is smart, but in front of this person, she is like a transparent person. Her internal organs, heart, liver, spleen and lung are clearly seen, and there is no place to hide.

For a long time, she bit her silver teeth and knelt down. "The empress treated me sincerely, but I I'm really damned for being greedy. Please punish me. "

Zhao Pingqing looked down for a moment, gave a cool smile, and leaned over to lift her up. "When you first enter the palace, it's hard to avoid that your mind is not at ease. Our palace is not a harsh person, so it's over. Just remember that you are wrong We have to change it. There must be no second time. Do you understand? "

Rong Cairen said hastily: "I understand that from now on, I will only follow my mother's lead and never dare to have a second heart."

"Good." Zhao Pingqing stroked the still slightly hot cheek and said in a cool voice: "you want to attach yourself to the empress. After all, she is the head of the middle palace, and her position is far above our palace. But you don't understand that in this back palace, there is only one empress who can enter the eyes of the empress. There is no other one."

Rong Cairen nodded deeply, "I can see that I'm innocent. Fortunately, I don't care. I just I'm afraid it's not a good way to go in the future. "

Zhao Pingqing smiles and looks back at the worried Rong Cairen. "The road in the palace has never been easy. The key is how you go."

As the night wind blows in, the candle flickers, and the light and shadow on Zhao Pingqing's face flickers and flickers

Dongfangsu's iron hand really played a good role. Overnight, no one in the palace dared to talk about Mu Qianxue's mother and son.

The days passed slowly in peace. In the twinkling of an eye, it was June, the hottest month of the year. This year, it was very hot. Even sitting in the room, it was sweating all over. One by one, they were looking forward to the rain. But the God deliberately did right. There was not a drop of rain in the past ten days, only the scorching sun.

This afternoon, Zhao Pingqing took a nap in the inner hall. She felt sleepy. She was awakened by the sound of cicadas outside. She closed her eyes and patted the bed. She said irritably, "go and stick all those cicadas. No one is allowed to stay."

Xiaocongzi retreated. After a while, the cicada's voice gradually decreased, and his tiredness came again. Zhao Pingqing yawned and wanted to sleep, but he was disturbed again, "master."

Zhao Pingqing opened his eyes and stared at the little Congzi with a bad look. "What's the matter?"

Knowing that she was disturbed to sleep, Xiao Congzi was not happy. He quickly said, "I'm here, madam."

Zhao Pingqing a Zheng, doubt voice way: "mother?"

"It's the waiting lady." With that, Xiao Congzi took a look at her and said in a soft voice, "I don't think my wife looks right. My eyes are red. I'm afraid there's something important."

Zhao Pingqing was surprised and got up and said, "let my mother come in."

After a while, Mrs. Zhao came in. As Xiao Congzi said, her brows were deep and her eyes were red and swollen. "I'd like to say hello to my mother, and she's blessed."

"Mother's pardon." After beckoning her to get up, Zhao Pingqing said with concern: "mother braves the scorching heat to enter the palace, but what's important?"

"There are some things." Mrs. Zhao took a look at the palace man who came in to serve tea. Zhao Pingqing understood and waved to the palace man to withdraw. Then she said, "what's the matter? And father? "

When she asked, Mrs. Zhao's tears came down immediately after a long time. "My wife came to see my mother just for waiting for me."

Zhao Pingqing trembled in his heart and quickly asked, "what's the matter with my father?"As she wiped her tears, Mrs. Zhao said: "at the beginning, the Marquis hired a killer to rob and kill Mu Guifei outside Jinling, but for various reasons, she fled back to the city. I thought it was over. But two days ago, someone sent me a letter asking you to extort 100000 taels of silver. Otherwise Tell your majesty about it. "

Zhao Pingqing turned pale with horror, "they How do they know? "

"I don't know. When I received the letter, both the Marquis and I were startled. I always remember the orders from my mother. I never revealed my identity to these people. I don't know why..."

"It must not be known to your majesty." At the thought of this, she was too scared to breathe, and then she said angrily, "there are so many hundred thousand taels of silver. My father is so careless, where can I collect them for you?"

"I didn't come for money." Mrs. Zhao said in a trembling voice: "the letter only gave you two days' time limit. The Marquis cobbled together tens of thousands of taels and sent them to the place mentioned in the letter. The Marquis wanted to ask them to take it easy. When he had the money, he would offer it to them It's not the killers who are waiting there, it's Jingzhao yamen

Zhao Pingqing suddenly got up and stared at her in disbelief, "how could this happen?"

Mrs. Zhao said with tears in her eyes: "I don't understand. They can't help but arrest me. I really don't know what to do. I can only ask my mother to do something."
