Chapter 233: The Irritable Queen Mother vs. the Cold Imperial Master (16)
Seeing Li Yuanfan's panic, Lu Cha comforted his new little tool: "Don't be afraid."
"I have no desire for the throne."
Soldiers represent power.
Neither the male protagonist nor General Jiang could give it to her, so she could only cultivate it herself.
Although she has no intention of dethroning the male protagonist at the moment, she has a trump card in her hand, so she can do things with confidence.
Li Yuanfan was in a complicated mood.
Queen Mother, you are really not afraid that he will go out and say nonsense.
"I will definitely not let the Queen Mother down."
After Li Yuanfan left, Jinyu couldn't hide her worries:
"Queen Dowager, what if Li Yuanfan defected to someone else and betrayed you?"
Lu Cha raised his little face, looking serious and earnest.
Jin Yu subconsciously held her breath, thinking that her queen mother would come up with some brilliant plan or say "kill them all".
"Serve the food first. I'm hungry."
“…”
Jin Yu's lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself. In the end, she silently did as she was told.
She should worry about the Queen Mother's belly first.
-
On the path to the palace.
Li Yuanfan had just walked out of the Cining Palace when he saw a man in white clothes, who looked like a banished immortal, walking towards him. Beside him was a handsome follower.
He bowed his head respectfully and said, "Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Li Yuanfan, I greet the Imperial Master."
This road only leads to the Cining Palace.
Ming Yan's eyes were calm: "Minister Li, why are you going to the Cining Palace?"
Li Yuanfan became nervous unconsciously.
He didn't know who the Imperial Master belonged to. If he was discovered, wouldn't he be in trouble now that he had taken refuge with the Queen Mother?
But avoiding the question makes it even more suspicious.
Li Yuanfan didn't know how to start for a moment, and he was not good at lying, so he was so anxious that his face turned red.
After a moment, he managed to utter:
"The Queen Mother wants to discuss something with you."
His eyes were evasive and his handsome face flushed red. It was hard not to imagine what he did in the Cining Palace.
Seeing Li Yuanfan hesitating and looking uncomfortable, Ming Yan waved his hand and motioned him to leave.
After taking a look at Li Yuanfan who was almost running away, Zhuo Xuan hesitated:
"This Minister Li has an extraordinary appearance, but he looks guilty. Could it be that he is the Empress Dowager's concubine?"
Ming Yan inexplicably thought of the pretty girl and felt a little irritated by her frivolous words to him:
"You should go back home first."
Zhuo Xuan stared blankly at Ming Yan's receding figure.
Sir, you seem angry?
Did he say something wrong???
-
After the palace maid finished reporting, Ming Yan walked into the main hall of the Cining Palace.
The girl sitting in the first seat was wearing plain clothes today, with only an elegant jade hairpin in her hair, but it still couldn't hide her bright and beautiful face.
She lowered her head to enjoy the delicacy, and her slightly curved eyes revealed the same satisfaction as the little silver fox had when he ate the delicious food.
How come they are so similar?
As if not noticing Ming Yan's probing gaze, Lu Cha patted the chair beside him and teased him out of habit:
“Eating alone is lonely.”
"Would the Imperial Master be willing to accompany me?"
Unexpectedly, Ming Yan sat down.
"?"
Lu Cha stared at the man with cold eyes and eyebrows suspiciously.
Did the sun rise from the west today?
The little villain's favorability value didn't decrease?!
Jin Yu was very considerate and immediately ordered someone to bring new bowls and chopsticks and place them in front of Ming Yan.
"There are many people in the palace, and as the mother of a country, the Queen Mother should remember the differences between men and women to avoid being criticized."
Lu Cha was confused.
I haven't even started to touch him yet!
Seeing the girl looking at him in confusion, Ming Yan realized something was wrong and pursed his lips.
He had just been thinking about Zhuo Xuan's words, and for some unknown reason he gave him a reminder.
Ming Yan turned his head, avoiding Lu Cha's gaze, and placed the wooden box on the table.
"It's time for the Queen Mother to take her medicine."
Lu Cha took the white jade porcelain cup reluctantly.
Although the medicine tastes good, it is poisonous!!!
"Master, how long do I need to take the medicine?"
"It will take a month to fully recover."
Ming Yan's voice was distant and indifferent.
Lu Cha curled his lips, a malicious look flashed in his eyes. After drinking the medicine, he casually mentioned:
"I heard from the Emperor that he recently sent a spiritual little silver fox to the Imperial Master."
"I have never seen a silver fox before. Master, please bring it to me next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Cha suddenly met a pair of sharp and deep eyes.
It’s like the gloomy night sky before a storm, which makes people feel depressed and suffocated.
"It's dead."
Ming Yan, who originally wanted to stay and test the waters, got up and left after he finished speaking, leaving Lu Cha dumbfounded.
The little villain killed me?!
[No, the fox escaped.] The system gloated:
[However, the villain has already issued an order to kill him if he is found.]
“…”
Lu Cha hugged herself distressedly.
She couldn't let the little villain turn into a fox and rub him!
At this time, a palace maid entered the hall and reported: "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Concubine Mu has arrived."
"Let her in."
Not long.
Mulanyue walked over slowly, but before she could bow, Lucha raised her hand to stop her: "There are no outsiders here, no need to bow."
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your grace."
Mulanyue glanced at the palace maids around her.
Seeing that she had something to say to him, Lu Cha signaled everyone to leave.
Mu Lanyue gritted her teeth and didn't beat around the bush: "Lanyue, I killed Lin Xiunu and was dumping the body when several palace maids saw it. But Lanyue only brought her personal maids with her at the time, so she let them run away."
"Lan Yue wants to ask the Queen Mother for help in finding those people."
Although her father was the Imperial Censor, she could not ask for his help with matters concerning the harem, for fear of arousing the emperor's suspicion.
Unfortunately, she has no support in the harem.
If this matter is exposed, my father will definitely be implicated.
Queen Mother, I have no ill will towards her.
Only then did she think of coming over and giving it a try.
Knowing that the "Lin Xiu Nu" mentioned by Mu Lanyue was the fake bestie who deliberately delayed the imperial physician and did not save Mu Lanyue in the original plot, Lu Cha immediately agreed:
"Jinyu, take Concubine Mu's maid and go find those palace maids."
"Remember to clean it up."
Jin Yu nodded and took her leave.
Mulanyue's maid followed closely behind.
Unexpectedly, Lu Cha agreed to it so easily. Mulan Yue breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly:
"If the Queen Mother has anything to say, please feel free to tell Lan Yue."
"Then come and have dinner with me."
Mulanyue was stunned for a moment, then she started to serve the dishes tactfully.
Enjoying the little mistress's feeding service, Lu Cha was in a good mood: "If you don't want to sleep with me, I can help you."
The male protagonist is a grown-up boy, but he appears to be quite obedient.
"Thank you for your kindness, Queen Mother. But since Lan Yue is already the Emperor's concubine, I will serve you well."
She wanted to climb to a high position and protect the Mu family. This was the path she had to take.
Even though she doesn't like the emperor.
Knowing that Mulanyue's thoughts could not be changed in a short period of time, Lu Cha didn't say anything more and raised his hand to feed her a piece of almond cake.
Seeing the girl's face turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, Lu Cha felt regretful.
What a cute little cabbage.
Why wasn't I the one who pushed her?!
-
At the same time, in the study of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
After Ming Yan lit a stick of sandalwood, he took out a few coins made of ancient jade and placed them in the corresponding positions.
This time, he wanted to calculate the relationship between the Queen Mother and the little fox.
About a moment.
When he saw the hexagram displayed, it was still the same sentence - flowers in the water, moon in the mirror, Mingyan frowned.
For the first time, he felt like a huge rock was pressing down on his chest, making him feel so annoyed that he couldn't breathe.
Before delivering the medicine, he had never had any contact with the Queen Mother. He had only heard rumors about her, saying that she was moody, vicious and cruel, etc. No one said a good word about her.
It’s hard to imagine that the Queen Mother is naughty yet well-behaved.
But the Queen Mother's behavior was very similar to that of the little fox.
The talented people in this world are all about the same age as the Ming family's ancestor and have long since died.
The few remaining descendants chose to change their careers because they did not understand the techniques.
How did she change her soul?
Ming Yan felt that his thoughts were like a tangled mess, completely incomprehensible.
Glancing at the small bed placed beside him, Ming Yan wanted to ask someone to throw it away, but suddenly the image of the little fox lying in his arms and acting coquettishly flashed before his eyes.
a long time.
Ming Yan silently put the small bed into the cabinet, with a dark look in his eyes.
Queen Mother, are you a little fox?
