Chapter 317
On the carriage back to the palace, Xuanyuan Jin looked at Bai Jiujiu and asked: "Did the Queen really develop such a powerful poisonous needle?"
Bai Jiujiu took out the small bamboo tube and said with a smile: "I don't think I have the ability to bluff people. This is just an ordinary silver needle. After all, I can be considered a half-knowledgeable doctor. Even if I can't save many people,
You can’t harm anyone!”
Xuanyuan Jin actually also expected that this girl's ability to scare people was extraordinary.
"I am very impressed by the queen today. The general likes to use force to solve everything, but I didn't expect that the daughter he raised would be the opposite." Xuanyuan Jin sighed.
"Hehe, I, this is called scheming. The physical pain is nothing to people like Lei Xing. What they fear most is the pain of not being able to die and the ties to their families.
Another thing is - I don’t know how to do martial arts! I don’t have the ability to use force to solve the problem! I can only win with intelligence.
When I have time, I, my concubine, should find a master to learn some self-defense skills." Bai Jiujiu felt that if he didn't know martial arts in this time and space, he could easily lose his life.
Although there is a law here, this law only applies to obedient people. There are too many disobedient people and it is too dangerous.
"If the queen wants to learn, I can teach you, so there is no need to ask for a master." Xuanyuan Jin's eyes were full of doting. It would be good to learn some self-defense skills. She likes to go out of the palace so much, and it is really dangerous without any martial arts.
Bai Jiujiu happily took his arm and praised, "It's great to have a husband who loves you."
The smile in the man's eyes deepened, and then he changed the topic and asked: "Did the Queen bully the Imperial Master again?"
Bai Jiujiu almost failed to keep up with his rhythm.
"Your Majesty, you are bullying me by talking like this. He is the Imperial Master and a famous figure around the Emperor. All civil and military officials in the dynasty must give him three points of courtesy. How can I dare to bully him? You can't spread rumors like this, Concubine." Bai Jiujiu quickly said.
Pick it off yourself.
"You really didn't bully her?" Xuanyuan Jin didn't believe it. If she hadn't bullied Wei Changfeng, they would have come together. Wei Changfeng was unwilling to go back with them. He insisted on staying and watching Lei Xing and waiting for Mo Guhan to send a message before leaving.
"Really not. Your Majesty, I am your queen, but you are talking to others. It seems that the person you care about more is the Imperial Master.
The Emperor and the Imperial Advisor have been getting along day and night, and it is understandable that the Emperor has other thoughts in his mind. I will not dislike you, but the Emperor cannot use me as cannon fodder to protect the Imperial Advisor." Bai Jiujiu pouted aggrievedly.
The man almost vomited blood because of her anger: "Bai Jiujiu, if you keep talking nonsense, do you believe that I will punish you?"
"Okay, okay, if you don't tell me, I'll just do it." Why are you talking so anxiously? It's hard to beat CP these days! You can even lose your life if you're not careful.
She thought the topic was over and she could be quiet for a while, but the man glanced over at her, looking at her like a scanner, which made Bai Jiujiu feel nervous.
"Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like this? But what's wrong with me?" Bai Jiujiu asked cautiously.
"Queen, don't you think there is something missing from you today?" the man said without any beginning or end.
"What's missing?" Bai Jiujiu's mind didn't turn around for a moment.
"How has the queen been eating durian recently?" The man still didn't specify it directly, but he made it very clear.
Bai Jiujiu naturally understood, and he smiled guiltily and said: "Eating too much durian will cause internal heat, so it is not advisable to eat more. If the emperor likes to eat it, I will send you one when I go back. By the way, I asked Qingyao to make it with durian."
The durian cake and durian cake are good, would your Majesty want to try them?"
I was angry with him for taking away my exit token and wanted to tease him, so I secretly put durians in his food. It seems that he found out. Is he going to investigate?
"Okay. I will go to the Queen's Palace to taste it tonight." The man actually followed her words and agreed.
Bai Jiujiu couldn't help but slapped his mouth and murmured in a low voice: "This makes you nag, it's so stupid." He looked at the man and said with a smile: "Hey, why bother? If the emperor likes it, I will send you a concubine."
I will send it to you. The emperor has to work hard to manage everything. How can I let the emperor run around? That would be too inconsiderate of me."
"That's fine, the queen can send it to Longsheng Palace in person tonight!" The man was in great spirits today and played with her.
"that--"
"This is an order. You must not disobey it. I am tired. I need to rest for a while. Queen, don't disturb me." The man closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Bai Jiujiu thought she was very good at talking, but she didn't expect to fall into his hands today. She was not convinced. In terms of eloquence, she would never lose to him, but in terms of aura and power, she was suppressed by him.
Yes, it's really overwhelming for a high official to kill someone, let alone the emperor deliberately suppressing her.
Isn't it just to tease him a little? He is still vindictive and stingy.
No wonder there were so many people in history who wanted to rebel, but were always suppressed, and it was indeed easy for them to become rebellious.
The man looked at her secretly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Ci'an Palace
"Are you telling the truth?" the Queen Mother asked, looking at the maid who reported the report.
"I don't dare to deceive the Queen Mother. Today, I went to the Changming Palace to get the elixir for the Queen Mother. I saw the Queen Mother and the Imperial Master in the alchemy room with my own eyes. The Queen Mother was disheveled." The palace maid Miao Xin reported what she saw today to the Queen Mother.
Queen Mother.
"They are so brave, they dare to do such shameless things." The Queen Mother was furious after hearing this.
"The Queen Mother, please calm down and be careful," the personal eunuch De Chun advised.
"How can the Ai family not be angry? The emperor values the Imperial Master and treats him as a good friend. He also loves Bai Jiujiu very much. But the two of them are so good that they actually did such a shameful thing behind the emperor's back. Have they ever thought about the emperor's intentions?
I feel that the emperor is too indulgent to them.
Where is the Queen now?" the Queen Mother asked.
Miao Xin reported: "Going back to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother and the Imperial Preceptor - the two of them left the palace together?"
"What did you say? They came out of the palace alone and alone? What on earth are they going to do? Are they afraid that the world will not know what they are doing? Not only are they unscrupulous in the palace, but they also dare to run out of the palace and fool around." The Queen Mother was angry.
You have to cover your temples.
Dechun said worriedly: "Queen Mother, what's wrong with you? Do you have a headache again? I help you to rest. This matter still needs to be investigated. Maybe there is a misunderstanding."
"The Ai family has such an unsatisfactory body." The Queen Mother went back to the inner room to rest.
After Bai Jiujiu returned to the palace, he ran directly back to his bedroom.
Ban Yue came in with a plate of snacks and ate as he walked. Seeing that his master was back, he said happily: "Empress, you are back. The newly developed snacks in the Imperial Kitchen are stuffed with black sesame. They are delicious. Please try them."
"I have no appetite, you can eat it yourself!" Bai Jiujiu waved his hand, wondering what would happen if he went to Xuanyuan Jin's palace to deliver durian snacks at night?
The medicine in his body has not been resolved yet, so he cannot go to bed, but he still allows himself to deliver snacks. He must not be innocent in his thoughts.
Now the top priority is to get rid of King Lao Zan. He must not be unwell.
Seeing that her master was in a bad mood, Ban Yue asked worriedly: "My dear, what's wrong with you?"
"I -" Bai Jiujiu's eyes caught sight of the half-bitten snack in Banyue's hand, and the black sesame seeds inside were exposed. Bai Jiujiu turned his eyes and had an idea in his heart. His sad face immediately turned into a smile, and he picked up one
He took a big bite of the dim sum and nodded repeatedly: "Yeah! Not bad, it's delicious. Ban Yue, hurry up and eat. After you're done eating, go help me and ask the chef in the imperial dining room for something to come over."
"What do you want?" Ban Yue asked curiously.
"A good thing." Bai Jiujiu smiled evilly.
