Chapter 232 New clues

"ah--"

A short scream startled Ping'er awake on the couch, "What's wrong, madam!"

Ping'er jumped off the couch and quickly opened the gauze curtain, "What's wrong, madam? Ping'er is here!"

Murong Qing was breathing heavily, like a fish that was thrown on the shore and was about to suffocate. It turned out to be a dream, which scared her to death!

"Ping'er, hold the lamp."

Fortunately, this time the call was answered, "Hey, I'll be fine soon."

After a while, a weak candle lit up in the gauze tent, which just illuminated their sweaty faces.

Ping'er reassured her, "Madam, are you okay?"

"Nothing, I just had a nightmare that scared me."

"Don't be afraid, madam. Ping'er is here, as well as Grandma Kong and the others."

The imperial concubine knew that she was lucky to be the emperor's concubine. If she were an unknown palace maid, she might not be able to withstand General Pei's wrath.

But because he was busy dealing with the imperial concubine, Murong Qing didn't think about it in detail and just kept the pattern in his mind.

After a while, Murong Qing calmed down. She said listlessly, "It seems that I am really not suitable to live in this palace. No, I will find an excuse to move out of the Huichun Palace tomorrow. The General's Palace is better."

Thinking of this, she was in trouble again. Now she was in the palace, and Ruyan and Pei Mo were not around. How could she implement the plan if there were not enough manpower.

Murong Qing was also a worldly person, so she was naturally tempted when she saw something precious, but when she thought that it was a gift from Concubine Rong, she hesitated.

When the imperial concubine saw Murong Qing staring at the lacquer box, she thought she was curious about why two boxes were used to contain one Ruyi, so she explained specifically.

The content of the letter was not long. It just said that the room felt deserted and impersonal, and asked how Murong Qing was doing and whether she could return to the general's residence. If so, Pei Mo would prepare a soft sedan to carry her all the way back to the residence.

The imperial concubine was in the wrong, so she confessed to the emperor long ago that Murong Qing had caused fetal distress.

The imperial concubine said, "Madam, open it and take a look. This Ruyi was carved out of a whole piece of warm jade by the carvings of the previous dynasty. Later it was sent to the palace. The former emperor gave it to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother gave it to me.

Because it was so precious, I kept it in two wooden boxes, which made my wife laugh."

Murong Qing smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, the imperial concubine. I have a good foundation. The imperial doctor said that I recovered quickly and is no longer in serious trouble. I felt tired while lying on the bed, so I walked around in the wing room."

"What did Madam say? If Madam doesn't accept it, I will feel very sorry. Could it be that Madam still blames me in her heart?"

Murong Qing nodded and asked Ping'er to open the small box and take a look. When he opened it, a blue-white Ruyi shone brightly. There was no trace of impurities in Ruyi's body. It was even and translucent. It was engraved with auspicious cloud patterns and Buddha's hand patterns. It was lifelike and could be seen at a glance.

This Ruyi is worth a lot of money.

After giving the gift, the imperial concubine did not stay long. After saying some words of concern, she left, taking the big lacquer box with her.

But it felt familiar in my heart, as if I had seen it somewhere.

As she said that, the maid next to the imperial concubine brought up a slightly larger lacquer box. The box was engraved with exquisite and special patterns. Murong Qing felt that such patterns were rare, so she took a second look.

Just like that, Murong Qing finally slept peacefully.

That afternoon, Liu Shen sent a letter written by Pei Mo, and Murong Qing was surprised to open it and read it.

The maid opened the lacquer box, took out a wooden box as long as an elbow, and held it in front of Murong Qing with both hands.

The water here seems to be getting more and more turbid.

In the morning, the imperial doctor came again. After checking her pulse, she said, "The general's wife has a good foundation and is recovering faster than others. As long as she doesn't do strenuous exercise and rests for three or four days, there will be no problem."

The two sat down. Because of Pei Mo's anger yesterday, the imperial concubine's smile seemed less kind and more fearful, and her words and deeds were a little more solemn.

"I must first apologize to Madam for causing General Pei to be so worried. I tossed and turned last night and felt really ashamed of Madam. It just so happened that I had a warm jade Ruyi here. This was a gift from the Queen Mother of the current dynasty. I am special

I give this thing to Madam as an apology, and I hope Madam will not mind you."

"Okay, madam, you're not afraid anymore." Ping'er comforted her and just nodded her head no matter what she said.

The maid walked behind, and Murong Qing stared at the lacquer box intently. In the flash of lightning, he remembered that the special pattern on the lacquer box had been seen by Ruyan and others in their search for clues to the identity of Pei Mo's mother!

When Murong Qing realized it later, he was shocked and surprised. He was shocked that he found a new clue, and he was surprised that this clue was related to Concubine Rong.

Soon, the wing was quiet again, but the candle was not extinguished. Ping'er was afraid that his wife would be scared, so he found a lampshade to cover the candle, leaving a faint light.

As soon as Murong Qing finished his breakfast, the palace maid came in and sent a message, "General's wife, the imperial concubine is here to see you."

The imperial concubine had already talked about this, and Murong Qing couldn't refuse, so he accepted Ruyi with a smile.

So on the surface, she treated Murong Qing with all her heart.

In order to find more clues, Murong Qing wanted to see the pattern on the lacquer box up close, so he decided to stay in the imperial concubine's palace for a few more days to take the opportunity to free up the pattern.

"I have thanked you for your love, but this wish is too precious, and I cannot afford it."

The emperor knew that Pei Mo had extenuating circumstances, so he ignored the impeachment talk in the court and instead spoke good words for Pei Mo. Of course, Murong Qing did not know this.

She could only cheer up. After yesterday's accident, she disliked Concubine Rong even more. Even if the fetal movement had nothing to do with the concubine, Murong Qing felt that the feng shui in this palace must be bad.

Because of Pei Mo's identity, he could not often go to the backyard of the palace, so he could only write letters to express his love. In fact, the emperor knew about the last time Pei Mo broke into the harem on horseback. When Pei Mo went to court, he was impeached by some old officials, saying that Pei Mo

He broke into the harem without permission, despised the imperial power, and hoped that the emperor would punish him, and so on.

Only then did Ping'er and the nuns let go of their worries.

After opening the curtain, the imperial concubine was already sitting on the main seat. When she saw Murong Qing coming out, she stood up and went to help her, "Hey, madam, why aren't you lying on the bed? What did the doctor say? Is madam okay?"

Murong Qing couldn't help but smile, seeing Pei Mo's sorrow in his heart, just like writing a letter to comfort him, and by the way, he told him that he had found clues about his mother's life experience.

But then I thought about it, the people in this palace are not trustworthy, what if someone peeks at the letter she wrote.

So he just wrote in the letter that he could not leave the palace for the time being and would return after a few days of rest.

At night, Murong Qing fell asleep, and heard the rustling sound again. She remembered the frightening dream last night, and immediately opened her eyes, confusedly thinking about whether it was a dream this time or what?

Turning around, she saw a group of black figures lifting up the gauze curtain. Murong Qing seemed to have been poured cold water on her face, and was about to scream in fright. However, the black figure seemed to notice its intention, and the black figure stretched out its hand to hold her mouth tightly.
