Chapter 371 Cannon Fodder Stand & Cold Tyrant 14 (2-in-1)
The bright moon was in the sky, reflecting the desolate yard. Lu Rong and three people held Lu Ru tightly. Lu Zhu hesitated: "Really do this? Do it?”
Lu Rong's eyes were filled with anger: "She wants us to die, do you still have mercy on her?"
Lu Zhu was speechless and frowned: "But..." She has never done this before This kind of thing, let alone the person who once served the empress.
At this time Lu Ru struggled to reveal her mouth, and finally she could speak, loudly saying: "You dare to attack me, aren't you afraid of being discovered by the lady? The lady will definitely not let you go, Lu Zhu Lu Qi, you don't want to You are on the wrong track, otherwise I will not be able to protect you.”
Trying to stay calm, "As long as you let me go, I don't have to tell the lady what happened tonight."
Luzhu Luqi was already wavering, but when she heard what she said, she couldn't help but let go of her hand.
"Are you idiots!" Lu Rong scolded: "She wrote a letter and told the lady everything about the empress. She didn't care about our life and death at all. How can you be deceived by her few words? You I want to die but I don’t want to, hurry up and catch him!”
Lu Zhu Lu Qi was shocked and quickly held down Lu Ru again.
Lu Rong stared at Lu Ru: "Lu Ru, you asked for this." She took off the hairpin from her head and plunged it into her neck. Blood spurted out. Lu Ru's expression was frozen in disbelief. His mouth was heavy but he couldn't make a sound, and his body fell softly.
After looking around, there was a dry well not far away. He immediately called two people to drag Lu Ru's body over, looked at it and pushed the person in hard.
With a thud, he fell into the bottom of the well.
Lu Qi Lu Zhu’s expression was blank, her face turned pale little by little, and she froze in place.
Lu Rong breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and saw them like this, and snorted a warning: "What happened today was done by the three of us. Don't even think about sending a message outside the palace, otherwise none of us will They can't even run away."
The two of them turned even paler.
Song Zi, who had seen this scene outside the door, took a breath of cold air. He didn't expect Lu Rong to be so cruel and actually killed Lu Ru.
But the empress really has no plans left, so there is no need for him to take action now.
Immediately and quietly closed the door, left here quietly, and then quickly returned to Cuiwei Palace. After getting permission to enter, he entered the palace and told Lin Zhi what happened.
Surprise flashed across Lin Zhi's face. He didn't expect Lu Rong to really do this. Although she deliberately sowed discord and made the three of them uneasy, her purpose was also to make them bite each other, but he really didn't expect it. Lu Rong was so decisive in order to survive.
The corners of their mouths curled up slightly. For the sake of their own lives, the three of them killed Lu Ru, and their way out was cut off from now on.
Apart from relying on her, it was no longer possible to gain Lin Xiruo's trust.
Just after reporting, Lu Rong and the other two people called out to greet them outside the door. Lin Zhi straightened her expression and let them in.
Lu Rong entered the house carrying a food box: "Your Majesty, your dinner."
Lu Zhu Lu Qi followed her, her face was pale, and after saluting, she stood aside and said nothing. , looking frightened.
Ling Zhi pretended not to see it, with a surprised look on her face: "Isn't it Lu Ru who went to get dinner? Why did she become you? Where is she?" Pretending not to know the good things they did.
Luzhu Luqi suddenly trembled.
Lu Rong glanced at Song Nu and hesitated to speak.
Ling Zhi immediately let the pine nut go down, and Lu Rong immediately walked to her and knelt down: "Empress, Lu Ru wanted to send a message to the lady, but I stopped her. We had a dispute and she accidentally fell in. In the well." He took out the letter and handed it to her.
After opening it, Lu Ru is indeed Lin Xiruo's most loyal maid. The letter tells everything about what she has done recently, including her instigation of Lu Rong and others, and her fall into the water a few days ago. And I'm going to the Imperial Study Room today.
It is also speculated that she wants to break away from the control of the Lin family and Prince Rui and switch to the emperor.
Worried about Lin Zhi's betrayal in the future, he proposed to find a way to make Lin Zhi 'disappear' completely, otherwise she would gain His Majesty's favor in the future and expose Lin Xiruo and Prince Rui.
She twitched the corner of her mouth, Lu Ru was smart, observed carefully, and her guess was correct, but it was a pity that her life was short and she was killed by Lu Rong and Lu Qi.
She put down the letter gently and looked at Lu Rong: "I didn't expect Lu Ru would really do this. She didn't care about your sisterhood at all, so Lu Rong was decisive." Looking at Lu Qi, "You guys Thanks to Lu Rong, if she hadn't stopped him in time, we would all have been miserable."
When the two heard this, their tense mood suddenly eased a lot.
Lu Rong was also proud: "They didn't want to take action just now. Fortunately, I reacted quickly. But, Madam, you said it yourself, we betrayed the young lady, and you will save our lives from now on."
< br>
After thinking about it, he threatened, "I know the place where the letter is sent. If you want to avoid being discovered by the lady and Prince Rui, you have to send a fake letter outside the palace."
Ling Zhi smiled: "Of course, I I will never break my promise." She then asked her to give the letter to Songzi and ask him to imitate Lu Ru's handwriting to prevent Lin Xiruo from suspecting. During the conversation just now, I unexpectedly discovered that the eunuch still has this ability, and he just needs to use it now.
Immediately called people into the room, Lu Rong wanted to refuse, but she couldn't imitate the handwriting, so she could only hand it to Songzi.
Staring at the person, but his expression is not good-looking, Lin Zhi thinks that Song Zi is his confidant.
But there is nothing we can do.
Not long after, after writing a letter with nothing special in it, Lu Rong went to deliver it alone.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened. Lin Zhi had dinner, then rested, and fell asleep soon. Today's events did not make her too emotional.
The next day, everyone in Cuiwei Palace knew about her promotion of Song Zi. By the way, he asked him to deliberately look for Lu Ru, but he couldn't find her. I'm afraid it was an accident, but a palace maid died and no one cared. , and then promoted a second-class maid to be a first-class maid.
After that, she mostly gave orders to Song Zi and the new Lu Yi, and no longer relied on Lu Rong and others.
The escape route of the three of them has been cut off by her. She maintains face and they can't say anything.
The emperor's reward caused an uproar in the harem, causing many concubines to be tempted. However, although they were tempted, they did not dare to take the initiative for fear of accidents.
After all, they have all learned how the emperor dealt with his concubines before, and His Majesty doesn't care about the harem at all.
While they were waiting to see what happened.
The emperor entered the harem.
Only two days after Lin Zhi went to the imperial study, the emperor went to Cuiwei Palace again.
In an instant, Concubine Hui, the third concubine, and other concubines of lower rank all sent people to inquire, guessing whether the emperor let Concubine Yi play the piano to continue torturing people this time, or whether His Majesty favored Concubine Yi.
In Cuiwei Palace, all the maids knelt down to greet him. Lin Zhi hurriedly came out of the house and called His Majesty. After he said to go in, he followed behind to prepare for the main hall.
Lu Rong and the others wanted to follow, but she stopped them: "Your Majesty doesn't like being served by others, so you can stay outside."
Close the door and enter the palace.
Lu Rong gritted her teeth. They were afraid that His Majesty would be angry and harm them, so they deliberately lied. Now His Majesty treats Lin Zhi differently. They wanted to see how Lin Zhi won His Majesty's favor. Unfortunately, because of what they said, they had no choice but to give in. The heart is closed outside. There were bright candles burning around the hall. Xiao Yuan was wearing a black robe with gold trim today. He had a tall back and sat down at the top. His face looked noble and cold, with a smile on his lips.
The eyes are cold and cold, making it difficult to tell whether his mood is good or bad.
Seeing that there was tea on the table, Lin Zhi poured a cup and brought it to him: "Your Majesty, would you like me to play the piano?"
Xiao Yuan drank and twirled the glass with his slender fingers: "No need. My beloved concubine is here these days. What are you doing? Why don't you go to the imperial study to find me?"
Looking over with deep eyes, she has indeed not been there for two days. Firstly, she has to deal with Lu Rong and others' affairs, and secondly, she also wants to see her. Look at the emperor's reaction in the future, now he is here.
Lowering his head, his face seemed to be stained with red clouds: "I think that Your Majesty is busy with everything, so I don't dare to disturb you."
Xiao Yuan curled his lips: "No matter how busy I am, if my beloved concubine comes to see me, I will also Put everything aside to be with your beloved concubine." He raised his dark eyes and put his long arms around her waist. Lin Zhi fell into his arms and put her hands on his chest.
Surprised: "Your Majesty?"
Xiao Yuan put her on his lap like a child, lowered his head and chuckled: "I haven't seen you for a few days. I miss my beloved concubine very much."< br>
Ling Zhi... From her perspective, this frightening face was extremely soft at the moment, and her eyes seemed to have suction and infinite affection, as if she really missed her.
However, she didn't believe it at all. Xiao Yuan had forced her to play the piano before and tortured her. How could he change his mind in a short period of time? He was just pretending to be affectionate. Moreover, few people in the entire palace believed what he said.
Averting his face slightly, he was extremely shy and said, "I, my concubine, also miss your Majesty very much." He was just pretending, maybe one day he would believe it himself.
Put your face against his chest.
Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, smelling the fragrance that was constantly coming from her body. The pain that had gradually returned since he was separated from her that day was beginning to slow down.
Rubbing the side of the woman's fair face with his fingertips, his eyes were dark. He asked Gao Peng to check. Except for Lin Shangshu, the imperial doctor who diagnosed him, he didn't know about his head disease, but he also found out that it was different. Cuiweigong had always used another kind of incense, but it suddenly changed later.
Just before she fell into the water, she heard from her palace maid that it was the empress who made the incense herself.
The incense is no different. They are all from the palace. You can find them out with a quick check. Even the palace maids and eunuchs were not avoided when making the incense, and nothing was added.
Gao Peng didn't notice that the Lin family had delivered anything to the palace recently - but he heard that Lin Shangshu's wife suddenly became particularly kind to the concubine who married into Prince Rui's palace.
Not only do I visit her every day and give her all kinds of things, but I also treat her with kindness and kindness.
I didn't care at all before. Even the dowry for the wedding was very small, only a few boxes.
One has to wonder whether the Lin family has reached some shady agreement with Prince Rui.
However, it was also found out that Lin Shangshu did not know about his mother and concubine, so either the incident of falling into the water and the sachet were purely coincidental, or Concubine Yi found out about it herself and used it.
The corners of his lips curled up. He was under his nose anyway, and if he did anything and was discovered, it would be difficult to deal with it.
The hand lingers from the face to the woman's thin neck, as if it can be grasped with one hand.
As if with just a little force, the beauty's fragile neck was broken.
Lin Zhi didn't know what he was thinking. Her neck was her most sensitive part. When he touched her, her voice trembled: "Your Majesty." Her eyes were watery and pitiful, and she tried to grab his hand and let go of her. .
Xiao Yuan leaned over and whispered in her ear: "My concubine smells so good."
He also got the fragrance and tried it, but it had no effect on relieving the headache. , only the fragrance coming from her body can relieve the headache.
It is a good idea to have cold eyes where she can't see her.
Better not let him find out.
However, the body was too soft, which made him feel slightly uncomfortable, but he quickly ignored it and hugged the person and closed his eyes to rest for a while. Since it was for him, there was no need to use it in vain.
The man's arms were so strong that Lin Zhi couldn't push him away. She could only be forced to tilt her head awkwardly and be sucked by him like a cat. She felt hopeless for a while. Xiao Yuan's behavior was nothing like a cat sucking catnip. Difference, I couldn't help but wonder if I had chosen the wrong method.
It’s just too late to regret it now, but the thought of sitting there for so long like last time made my whole body stiff.
But although the two hugged each other, their friendship was thinner than paper, so they had no choice but to endure it.
Xiao Yuan came to observe Lin Zhi and relieve his headache. After saying a few words, he stopped talking.
The palace suddenly became extremely quiet, and the sound of tiny candles burning could be heard from the palace lanterns. The cool wind of late autumn blew in from the windows that were not all closed, but the two of them hugged each other and did not feel the cold at all.
There was no sound in the house, and various thoughts flashed through Gao Peng, Lu Rong and others outside the house. Gao Peng thought, His Majesty and Concubine Yi are really very affectionate.
Lu Rong was scratching her head and head anxiously, wishing she could open the door and go in to see how Lin Zhi invited His Majesty to be his favor. Today, His Majesty did not even listen to the piano. At first, there was some talking, but now there is no sound at all. Don't know what I'm doing.
Although Lin Zhi vowed to gain His Majesty's favor and survive in the palace.
But His Majesty's previous attitude towards the harem still made her feel uneasy. Now that she has killed Lu Ru, the lady cannot go back. The lady knows that she will kill her, so she can only catch her now. Linzhi.
Therefore, I also want to know everything about Lin Zhi and control her whereabouts so that I can feel at ease.
But now that I am locked out, I am anxious, but I cannot show it on my face.
A crowd of people were waiting quietly outside. Due to Xiao Yuan's majesty, no one dared to make any noise and disturb them.
Half an hour later, there was finally movement in the hall.
Ling Zhi was held by Xiao Yuan. He didn’t speak and simply closed his eyes to rest. Just when she was about to fall asleep, Xiao Yuan moved. She opened her eyes and saw his sharp and angular face. jaw.
Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "Since my concubine is sleepy, I won't disturb my concubine's rest." He put the person down.
Ling Zhi hadn't recovered yet, she was a little unsteady and held on to the table.
Looking at him, she saw that he was standing up, a head taller than her, and then he came back slowly and said with a smile: "I will send you here."
The two of them walked towards the door. The outer eunuch has already opened the palace door.
Xiao Yuan turned around and said, "My dear concubine, if you have nothing to do tomorrow, you can go to the imperial study to find me."
Lin Zhi quickly glanced inside and outside the house, nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll go tomorrow." Then she watched him walk out of Cuiwei Palace, with the senior manager and other eunuchs following behind, getting on the chariot and leaving.
She yawned slightly and entered the palace. Lu Rong and others followed her and said hurriedly: "Empress, you and Your Majesty..."
