Taking a rare break from your busy schedule, Liu Zhao leaned on the comfortable cushion and closed his eyes easily.

Deng Sui snuggled beside him, peeled off the dark purple grape skin, and sent the purple-dyed green beads into his mouth. "Your Majesty said that the medicine to calm the spirit is bitter, and I think it's appropriate to enjoy these fruits now."

"The fruity fragrance is sweet and can calm the mind." Liu Zhao said lazily, and his heart was already much calmer.

"It's noon, what do you want to use?" Deng Sui remembered that Wuling asked just now. "The imperial kitchen sent a lot of delicious food. But I thought it was hot, and Your Majesty might have a bad appetite, so it's better to come and have some simple things.

Side dishes.”

Liu Zhao nodded: "I am tired of eating the things I have made in the imperial kitchen every day. Look at it and let's arrange it."

"No." Deng Sui winked at Tuoyan.

Tuoyan smiled and stepped back.

"Does Your Majesty's wound still hurt?" Deng Sui looked at the mantis arm wrapped in cotton yarn and frowned.

"It's just a skin trauma, it's okay." Liu Zhao didn't feel any discomfort, but he was still scared when he remembered what happened last night.

Seeing that his face changed slightly, Deng Sui couldn't help but wonder: "What did Your Majesty see last night?"

Liu Zhao opened his eyes, looked at her, and wondered: "When did you become so curious? Isn't it that if you don't care about your own affairs, I won't ask more questions?"

"It's up to Your Majesty, how dare I not ask more questions?" Deng Sui looked at him and said something nice. "Your Majesty, you are wise and wise, and you are extremely brave. How can you be easily frightened?

I guess there must be other inside stories last night. I still have lingering fears when I saw that you were still afraid, so I must ask too much.”

Although I don't know how sincere this sentence sounds so comfortable. Liu Zhao reached out and pinched her jaw and said softly: "I... I saw the situation where Empress Dowager Dou forced my biological mother to death. On the beam

Although the person hanging, although I can't see his face clearly, I know that it is my biological mother..."

For some reason, Liu Zhao actually said to her. After saying that, he felt incredible. He would not mention such a thing to anyone.

Deng Sui's lowered eyebrows and frowns looked so distressing.

"Are you sympathizing with me?" Liu Zhao suspiciously lifted her jaw and forced her to look at him. "You know, improper use of mercy can be equated with humiliation."

"Why should your majesty be so careless?" Deng Sui gracefully pinched a grape, peeled it and sent it to his lips. "I just remembered the helplessness and fearful mood when my father passed away."

He relaxed his fingertips slightly, and he ate the grapes she had peeled. The sweetness of the fruit made him feel much more comfortable. "I know that at that time, you were filial to your father and did everything you should do. I haven't eaten for three days,

This year, only boiled vegetables and vegetarian food, three years of vegetarianism. Living in a simple thatched hut, thin cushions and stones pillowing... Even men may not be able to endure such hardships. You are not bad at all, and you have done it perfectly.

.”

"Compared with the pain of losing a close relative, these are just fur." ​​Deng Sui's eyes were blurred and tears flashed. "When his father died, he told me to serve His Majesty well. At that time, it was the first time that I had chosen a beautiful girl.

”

Liu Zhao looked at her gentle and quiet, and tender, and felt pity. "Since it was your father's instructions, just do it well. I will naturally give you a chance to serve."

Deng Sui looked at him, and lowered his head with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty." Wuling said respectfully outside the door: "Guru Yin and Meiren Yao asked for a meeting."

Liu Zhao sighed unhappily: "There is no peace for a day."

"Your Majesty, noon is the hottest time. Yin Guiren is pregnant. He comes here regardless of his hard work. It must be an important matter." Deng Sui's soft tone sounded like a breeze.

It relieved Liu Zhao's a little boredom. "Well, please come in."

"No." Wuling agreed outside the door and hurriedly went to invite him.

In a moment, the door opened.

Yin Lingyue led Yao Jiaer into the room.

There was no burning incense in the room, but the smell of fruit was strong. Yin Lingyue looked at the grape skins in the white jade plate on the lacquered wooden table, and her heart tightened. Fortunately, she was still worried about His Majesty's dragon body.

These two are so nice. They are so envious of others when they are snuggling up here to eat grapes.

"Your Majesty, please make sure to make the decision for our sisters." Yin Lingyue knelt down sadly, and tears fell like broken beads, crackling and crackling.

Deng Sui was stunned.

"Why are you so sad?" Liu Zhao looked at Yin in confusion, his brows locked in coldness: "Speak slowly."

Yin Lingyue's voice was sad: "Jia'er lost her usual habits last night because someone had given medicine. Then she ate the medicinal food with His Majesty."

"What does it mean?" Liu Zhao didn't understand very much.

Yin Lingyue turned sideways, and Yao Jiaer handed over the kilt. "Your Majesty, this kilt is what Jiaer wore yesterday. I believe Your Majesty still has an impression."

Nodded slightly, Liu Zhao didn't say anything, waiting for her to continue talking.

"After the examination of Dr. Zhang, this kilt was soaked with medicine. The effect of this medicine is to cause my concubine to feel uncomfortable in the fetus and die prematurely. This medicine is also the medicinal food prepared by Yong'an Palace yesterday.

A medicine is incompatible. Your Majesty and Jiaer smelled the smell and ate the medicinal food, and then had hallucinations. This was also the truthful report by Doctor Zhang after finding out. "Yin Lingyue's appearance of pear blossoms in the rain is really pitying.

Man said it was the emperor, and even Deng Sui couldn't help but want to comfort her when she saw her crying so sadly.

I am afraid that no matter how hard the heart is, it can be turned into tenderness and sweetness by her fingers.

"Your Majesty, the person who manipulated this matter behind the scenes was too vicious. Not only did the imperial descendants who wanted to use my concubine's hands to murder Yin Guiren, but they also wanted to provoke my concubine's relationship with me. If such a vicious person is still there, he will remain

In the harem, wouldn’t there be no peace in this palace? I hope Your Majesty will investigate this matter thoroughly, return the justice of my sisters, and also remove the root of disaster for Your Majesty’s own flesh and blood." After Yao Jiaer said this, the sharp cold light in her eyes was not at all.

He looked at Deng Sui in a taboo.

Coincidentally, Deng Sui kept looking at her when she was talking. This time, she met.

The hatred in Yao Jiaer's eyes was like a huge furnace. No matter how hard the iron block was, it would instantly turn into iron.

Deng Sui felt a stern and smiled on his lips.

This shallow, calm, and even a little proud smile made Yao Jiaer almost scream. What kind of woman is this? What kind of woman she wants to do?

"His Majesty……"

Yin Lingyue coughed lightly and interrupted Yao Jiaer's words.

A secret cold sweat spread on her forehead, rolling down her pale cheeks. Yao Jiaer only felt that the sword hanging on her head was always held in Deng Sui's hand. That kind of fear made her unable to describe it in words.

.This woman silently took away His Majesty's favor, and even her pregnant cousin could not compete.

Why can she compete with her?

"I hope Your Majesty can investigate this matter thoroughly." Yin Lingyue was very sad: "I finally had this child. Your Majesty, I am afraid that I will not be able to protect him from his safe birth."

"Don't talk nonsense." Liu Zhao said with a deep eyebrows: "I and your children will definitely be born safely. With me here, no one can hurt you and him."

Yin Lingyue smiled reluctantly, but the tears in her eyes did not stop rolling down. "These days, the palace is always uneasy. I don't know who sent Bao'er to my concubine's palace before, and I still want to frame me.

I poisoned me and endangered the dragon descendants. A few days later, Jiaer was drugged again. If I hadn't known Jiaer's personality and cherished the sisterhood between me and Jiaer, wouldn't it be the same again.

A tragedy. But recently, Your Majesty, you treat Jiaer very well..."

"I understand what you said." Liu Zhao looked solemn: "You are so kind. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give your sisters an understanding."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yin Lingyue knelt on the ground, but felt very uncomfortable.

Once upon a time, the tenderness His Majesty had for her was invisible at this time.

She was determined to give birth to a Lin'er for him, and stayed together quietly until she was old. Now it seems to be the most unreliable absurd longing. "Your Majesty was frightened last night, and it was thought that it was caused by the medicine. I am pregnant.

If you are in your body and have poor health, you can only ask the nobleman Deng to serve you and take good care of Your Majesty for me."

"A noble man has a strong saying, serving Your Majesty is the duty of my concubine." Deng Sui humbly bowed his head, but the implication was to tell Yin that taking care of Your Majesty was what she wanted, not to serve her.

Even though he was holding his breath, Yin Lingyue didn't show anything. "Then please rest your mind and I will take my leave."

"Wu Leng, send Yin Guiren back to the palace." Liu Zhao watched the two of them leave the inner room before he felt a little weak. "What do you think about this matter?"

"I think that Beauty Yao will definitely not tamper with her and conspire with her kimonoons to murder Yin Guiren's dragon fetus." Deng Sui said truthfully. Of course, she also guessed that these things were done by Zhou Yunji.

"Then do you think, who is so brave in my harem?" Liu Zhao asked coldly.

Thinking a little, Deng Sui shook his head: "Guru Yin and Beauty Yao, one is the treasure in the heart of His Majesty, and the other is the new favorite who has been very glorious recently. If you talk about the limelight, both sisters have always had it. I think there are many in this deep palace.

People will look at each other sideways, or even be jealous. But jealousy is jealous, after all, I just think about it in my heart. I am incompetent and I can’t see who will dare to do this.”

"Is that right?" Liu Zhao looked at her gentle and gentle appearance: "Since you said that, then I will listen."

"It doesn't matter if your Majesty doesn't believe me, but you have to solve this matter as soon as possible so that Concubine Yin can rest assured." Deng Sui said: "She is pregnant and has to worry about these things, I'm afraid she will be tired."

Liu Zhao didn't say anything more.

After a long time, Wuling came back to report his life, saying that he had sent Yin Guiren back to Yongle Palace safely.

"I want to meet someone, Wuling, you go to Hehuan Palace."

When Deng Sui heard the three words "Hehuan Palace", he couldn't help but be surprised. Could it be that her performance revealed something that made the emperor suspect Zhou Yunji at once?

"No." Wuling didn't feel tired, but he didn't understand why His Majesty wanted to guard Guiren Deng to solve this problem? Guiren Yin had an accident, but I was afraid that the eyes of the palace would be on Guiren Deng. I thought I would like to stay out of the matter.

It's also difficult.

Is Your Majesty going to do this? Should he be partial or trusting Guiren Deng from the bottom of his heart?

In the Hall of Hehuan.

The silver needle didn't have a clear head and suddenly pierced into the green onion's fingertips.
