Chapter 125: Aren’t you afraid it’s poison?
“Bang!”
The queen smashed the teacup in her hand.
"Fu Qingyin, why does he have to go against me?"
"I spent so much effort and sacrificed so many people to prevent the death of old lady Kong, but he made all my efforts go to waste with just one sentence!"
When Mrs. Kong passed away, the Kong family would naturally send someone to inform Kong Dezhao of the death.
Needless to say, the people sent here are all very skilled.
At that time, the Queen and the Crown Prince were determined to bring Yu Shengsheng and Kong Dezhao together, so they had to suppress the matter. Otherwise, when the news of the death came, Kong Dezhao would have to observe mourning, and it would be impossible to grant them a marriage.
In order to suppress the news, the Queen sent people to intercept them. Over the years, her subordinates had died or been injured one after another, and there were not many people who could be used. This time, almost all of them were killed when they met the Kong family.
I thought that no matter how heavy the cost, it would finally be accomplished, but who knew that Fu Qingyin would mess it all up!
The prince suppressed his anger and said, "Mother, what should we do now? I'm afraid Kong Dezhao and Yu Shengsheng's marriage will not be possible."
The queen's eyes were filled with coldness: "Marriage is a gentle one. Since it doesn't work, then use strong means. This is in the capital, not Nanshun."
The prince was shocked and lowered his voice to say, "Mother, Kong Dezhao cannot be moved casually. If it were possible, father would have done it long ago. He holds a special position in Nanshun. If something goes wrong and the court is not ready, and Nanshun is unstable, then..."
The queen stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist, her long eyelashes hiding the complex emotions in her eyes: "Su Huaiyuan...isn't he coming back soon?"
"Besides, why do we need to do it ourselves? Who broke Kong Dezhao's leg last time? If he could break Kong Dezhao's leg, can't he also break his life?"
The prince's eyes flickered. "My mother is saying that we should put the blame on the Red Dragon Guards?"
The Queen's lips curled up into a faint smile: "Who knows who it is? If Nan Shun needs to explain, it must be the Red Dragon Guard. If the Emperor is pleased..."
The prince understood and nodded slowly: "I will make arrangements."
At this time, the palace maid came to serve tea again. She lowered her head, looked cautious, and her face was white, tender and pretty.
The prince's gaze lingered on her face for a moment longer, and the queen's eyes dimmed.
"Send the golden pear and white fungus that I made for the emperor, and tell him that I miss him and ask him to take care of himself."
"yes."
The maid left, and the queen said calmly, "Yu Shengsheng, that bitch, and Kong Dezhao can't be together. I will arrange a good place for her."
The prince took a sip of tea and said casually, "My mother has spent a lot of time and effort on her. It would have been better to give her to me and let her be a female official in the East Palace."
"No!" the Queen blurted out, her voice stern for a moment.
The prince raised his eyelids and looked at her: "Mother seems to pay special attention to her, why is that?"
The queen gritted her teeth and said, "In short, I will not let her go easily."
…
The Shangshufang was not far away. Fu Qingyin stopped, turned around and handed Yu Shengsheng a pill.
"Eat it."
Yu Shengsheng took it and swallowed it without saying a word.
Fu Qingyin was calm and collected: "Aren't you afraid it's poison?"
Yu Shengsheng said frankly: "I am afraid, but it is useless to be afraid. If the commander wants to kill me, there are other ways besides taking this medicine."
A laugh escaped from Fu Qingyin's chest.
"clever."
Continuing to walk forward, Yu Shengsheng followed. Although she spoke calmly, she was actually nervous inside, not knowing what the hell she was eating.
However, she thought that with Fu Qingyin's identity and means, it would be easy for him to take her life, and there was no need to waste a poison. Besides, why did he want her life?
On second thought, Commander of the Red Dragon Guard, do you need a reason to want to kill someone?
He laughed at himself and followed lightly.
Upon hearing the report, Eunuch Wei came out to greet them personally, flicking his whisk and smiling.
“Oh, the commander is here, please come in, the emperor is waiting for you.” He turned his eyes and seemed to see Yu Shengsheng, “Princess Ruiyang is here too, please wait a moment…”
"Eunuch Wei, please let her go in with you. I am here to see the emperor just to pay my respects. There is nothing confidential."
Eunuch Wei smiled and nodded, stepped aside, and invited Yu Shengsheng to come in with him.
The emperor was looking through the memorials. When he saw Fu Qingyin coming, he threw the memorials aside.
"You are here, come and serve the tea."
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Fu Qingyin bowed and turned sideways, revealing Yu Shengsheng behind him.
Yu Shengsheng knelt down and kowtowed to express his gratitude.
"Your humble servant Yu Shengsheng, I bow to thank the Emperor for His Majesty's grace. May our Emperor live long, long, long, long."
The emperor lowered his eyes and looked down. He still remembered her. She was dressed like this at the last palace banquet.
"Look up."
Yu Shengsheng raised her head, her eyes still lowered. The emperor saw her face clearly from a close distance and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.
When he saw the bloodstain on her cheek, he frowned slightly, as if there was a crack on the flawless white porcelain.
However, you can say that it destroys the beauty or shatters the beauty.
The emperor looked at her quietly and said nothing for a while.
Although Yu Shengsheng did not make eye contact with the emperor, her natural sensitivity made her feel that his gaze was a little...
A thin layer of sweat silently seeped out of my back.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but it feels a little tingling and itchy.
She held back and didn't move.
After a long time, the emperor was about to speak, but Yu Shengsheng's face slowly turned red, and her fair skin looked even more shocking.
The red dots and spots reminded him of the dead concubine.
What’s it called?
He can't remember clearly, it's not important, but he still remembers the appearance of death.
He no longer had the interest to continue watching: "Thank you, then leave."
"Yes." Yu Shengsheng was slightly surprised. She didn't expect to pass the test so easily.
Get up quickly.
Before they could leave, a eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Empress sent someone to deliver golden pears and silver fungus."
The emperor nodded slightly: "Come in."
The palace maid came in with a tray and came face to face with Yu Shengsheng who was going out.
Yu Shengsheng was surprised to see a bloodstain on her face.
The maid entered the hall, put down the tray, and said what the queen had instructed.
The emperor also saw the bloodstains on her face, frowned, and waved his hand for her to leave.
The emperor did not even look at the cup and asked Fu Qingyin, "You are right. Confer her the title of Princess. When Su Huaiyuan comes back, it will be difficult for her to ask me for anything else."
"Now that she has the title of Princess, she can no longer arrange her marriage arbitrarily, and she can also get rid of Kong Dezhao."
Fu Qingyin smiled and said, "I haven't reported this to the emperor yet, but I have already sent Kong Dezhao away."
The emperor raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"
"He has now learned about Madam Kong's passing, so he probably won't be able to take care of his marriage for the time being."
The emperor was stunned: "You... didn't you say that I would wait until the news was completely confirmed and I found out who suppressed his news before telling him and rewarding him?"
"Oh, I saw him riding a horse in the city today. His arrogant look made me unable to hold back."
Fu Qingyin bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please punish me."
