Chapter 30 Adultery Exposed
In a short period of time, Zhuo Fengya's mind went blank. She had no choice but to quickly turn her attention to An Nuanzhi for help!
…………
"The Queen is here too?"
As soon as Lan Nian'an entered the palace, she saw An Nuanzhi. Wherever she went, she was a beautiful and elegant scenery. She was turning the book with one hand and holding her chin with the other. She was sitting by the Zhuo River reading a book. Perhaps she was attracted by some plot in the book.
I paused, and my calm and intoxicated expression made my eyes freeze.【,ka~
Gently curling, elegant and fragrant, her beauty cannot be compared with words.
Lan Nian'an was a little lost in thought, and when he approached her, he couldn't bear to disturb her, and it took him a long time to say.
An Nuanzhi raised her head naturally. When she was about to stand up, she suddenly tilted for some reason. The hot tea at the table suddenly spilled on the back of her hand, which immediately became red and swollen.
"hiss"
She gasped, and glistening sweat appeared on An Nuanzhi's forehead. The hot tea had just been brewed, and her skin and flesh were extraordinarily delicate, so it was not lightly burned.
"Come here, call Ruyi and Linghua and help the Queen back to Fengli Palace." Lan Nian'an said with a hint of anxiety in his tone. He blew lightly on the back of her hand a few times and said worriedly.
"Are you okay? Why are you so careless?"
An Nuan raised her big, gleaming eyes and said coquettishly, "An, can you go back to Fengli Palace with me?"
Lan Nian'an's body trembled slightly, and his expression revealed an unnoticeable joy. After all, An Nuanzhi didn't stay in the palace for three months, and the teacher only got along with him for a short time on the day he returned to the court, so he said
Get up, this was the first thing An Nuanzhi said to him after their relationship eased, and it was also the first time she called him "An" after such a long time.
There was a soft feeling in her heart, as if she had been touched by something. Lan Nian thought to herself that she was just a little woman, and she was much cuter without that layer of repulsion that made people thousands of miles away. She completely forgot that she came to Feng Yao Palace to see Zhuo
Concubine, Lan Nian'an focused entirely on An Nuanzhi's wounds.
"Your Majesty, let us help you, Your Majesty! Just stay in front." Ruyi and Linghua appeared in time, each supporting An Nuanzhi.
Before being helped to leave Feng Yao Palace with Lan Nianan, An Nuanzhi glanced back deliberately.
Zhuo Fengya poked her head out from behind the screen. Next to her lay Yuan Shui. She looked back at An Nuanzhi gratefully, with a deep sense of gratitude in her big eyes.
Zhuo Fengya said with lip language, "Thank you... Nuan Zhi..."
Thanks to An Nuanzhi's wit, she first pulled the screen to cover the view of the outer hall and the inner hall. When Lannian An came in, he would naturally only notice her looking down at her book first, and then she would "unintentionally" get hurt.
By attracting Lan Nian'an's attention, this matter was not exposed.
When they returned to Fengli Palace, An Nuanzhi's hand was briefly bandaged. Lan Nianan accompanied her carefully during the whole process. It was obvious that he cared about her.
Because of this concern, An Nuanzhi felt a lot warmer in her heart. She couldn't help but feel that Lan Nianan really cared about her. At least his attitude had changed dramatically from before, although they had not yet returned to the close bond they once had.
But it's also pretty good.
After applying the medicine, the imperial doctor withdrew, and Linghua and Ruyi also left. Only An Nuanzhi and Lannianan were left in the hall.
Lan Nian'an narrowed her eyes and suddenly said quietly, "The Queen helped Concubine Zhuo act, and she acted very hard!"
An Nuanzhi was slightly stunned. Could it be that Lan Nianan discovered Yuan Shui and Feng Ya? It seems that nothing can escape Lan Nianan's eyes. Lan Nianan's insight is sharper than ordinary people, and he is as careful as hair.
"Yes, I am very hardworking." An Nuanzhi looked at Lannian'an with clear eyes, "Because it will be Zhuo Fei's father's sixtieth birthday in two days, Zhuo Fei said that she would perform a birthday celebration drama for Zhuo Fei.
The old man looks at it. Asking my concubine to help me is indeed helping Concubine Zhuo in her acting. The emperor described her very appropriately."
Lan Nian'an was stunned for a moment when he heard this explanation. He looked at An Nuanzhi suspiciously for a long time, as if he wanted to see something from her face, and finally came back to his senses and said.
"Really? Thank you for your hard work, Queen..." There was a trace of incomprehensible playfulness in his voice.
An Nuanzhi smiled harmlessly and hurriedly waved her hands, "No hard work, no hard work. My duty is not to keep the harem in order. We are all sisters. I am happy to do anything that can be done with a little effort."
Lan Nian'an smiled coldly, as if there was something in his words, "Haha, you are quite generous!"
After saying this, Lan Nianan turned around and left coldly. Nothing could be seen on his face, but one thing was certain... An Nuanzhi's crisis was temporarily lifted.
Nothing was caught this time, but the longer Yuan Shui stayed in the palace, the more detrimental it would be to Zhuo Fengya, so it was better to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
I wonder how Feng Yao Palace is doing now?
An Nuanzhi looked into the distance and thought with some worry...
Feng Yao Palace is surprisingly quiet. The interior of the palace is luxurious and bright, but the atmosphere is a bit subtle. The inner hall and the outer hall are only a few steps away. In such a small space, there are more than a dozen guards standing, airtight.
The ground surrounded the inner hall of Fengyao Palace.
"What are you doing...! The empress is resting in the inner hall!!" Heming followed closely with his hands on his hips, and she looked anxiously into the inner hall.
A person who looked like the leader said, "This is what the emperor ordered us to do. We want to search the inner hall of Feng Yao Palace."
This sentence made He Ming turn pale. How could the emperor order the guards to search the inner hall of Fengyao Palace? Did the emperor already know about their empress and the assassin Yuan Shui? But how did the emperor know that he had been to Fengyao Palace?
There is only one person in the world, the Queen. Could it be the Queen...
Heming did not dare to think further. Heming was the dowry girl who had always served Zhuo Fengya. He had lived in Zhuo's family since she was a child and was even more loyal to Zhuo Fengya.
"Empress..." He Ming watched helplessly as Zhuo Fengya and Yuan Shui were pushed out by the guards. If the emperor pursues the case, it is a first-class crime to defile the palace, and if they are dissatisfied, they will also be thrown into the cold palace.
, their queen is still so young, and she is still pregnant with a child, not to mention Master Zhuo is already old, what if...
Not knowing where the courage came from, He Ming also went to the Dragon Palace with the guards. At this time, Lan Nian'an stood in the palace with his hands behind his back. He had a complicated expression on his face. When he saw Concubine Zhuo and Yuan Shui being brought in, he just
With a slight wink, he asked with a cold tone.
"Fei Zhuo, do you have anything else to say now?"
"Your Majesty, my concubine and Yuan Shui..." Now that the matter was exposed, Zhuo Fei just tried to fight for her and Yuan Shui's love. Unexpectedly, He Ming suddenly rushed out of the crowd and knelt at the feet of Lan Nian'an.
.
"Please tell me, Your Majesty, please spare your Majesty. All of this has nothing to do with your Majesty. There is actually a hidden reason behind this."
Lan Nian'an narrowed her eyes and looked at this little maid with a childish face. Her appearance was very ordinary and it was difficult to attract ordinary people's attention, but her speaking voice was very confident, at least three times higher than that of ordinary little maids.
"Are you with Concubine Zhuo?" Lan Nian'an's voice was majestic.
He Ming kowtowed and said, "Back to the Emperor, my servant's name is He Ming. She is the maidservant of Concubine Zhuo."
"Then please explain, there is an injured assassin hidden in your mother's bed, what is going on!" Lan Nianan's eyes were cold.
Forced by Lan Nian'an's stern gaze, He Ming was obviously a little flustered, but when she thought of the Zhuo family's more than ten years of kindness, she couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Actually, this is...because...because...the Queen!"
"Heming, don't talk nonsense!" Zhuo Fengya knew that Heming was eager to protect his master, but it was too ill-considered for Heming to tell such a lie!
She drew her bow without turning back. He Ming seemed determined to find a way to the dark side. She turned to look at Concubine Zhuo and said anxiously.
"Empress, I can't remain silent now. You are not at all wrong. If you are wrong, it can only be because of your kindness. This assassin was clearly entrusted by the Empress to take care of us. Why should you bear the responsibility if something goes wrong?"
In order to exonerate Zhuo Fengya, Heming acted unkindly and pointed all the unfavorable fingers at An Nuanzhi. Her idea was very simple, as long as she could help their mother-in-law get away with it, as long as she could help the Zhuo family
, she doesn’t care about any consequences………
Zhuo Fengya looked at Heming in disbelief. Is Heming crazy?
An Nuanzhi was her best friend and most trusted partner, and she could not bear injustice, but it was too late for her to stop her. At this time, Lan Nian'an's face turned extremely ugly, and he ordered coldly.
"Go and ask the queen to come over."
An Nuanzhi came to the Dragon Palace with a calm expression. At this time, Yuan Shui had been taken down and put into a cell. Only Zhuo Fengya, He Ming, and Lan Nianan, who was sitting upright with a gloomy expression, were left.
After a quick glance around, An Nuanzhi already had some idea in her mind. It seemed that the reason why she was suddenly called to the Dragon Palace was not simple.
The moment Heming saw An Nuanzhi, he felt guilty and avoided her gaze, and unnaturally hid behind Concubine Zhuo.
Concubine Zhuo gave An Nuanzhi an apologetic look. She was about to say something when she was interrupted by Lan Nian'an's scolding.
"Queen, what is your relationship with Yuan Shui!"
Ridiculous! These were the first two words that flashed through An Nuanzhi's mind, but combined with the abnormal behavior of He Ming and Zhuo Fei, she seemed to understand something, and her big eyes were very calm.
At this time, Heming saw that An Nuanzhi had no excuse, and suddenly she no longer felt guilty. She went out of her way and said, "Queen, you are so cruel. You have hurt our queen so miserably, do you still have the nerve to come to see the emperor now?"
An Nuanzhi still didn't speak. She stared ahead quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Queen, I want to hear your explanation." The cold light in Lan Nian'an's eyes was extremely terrifying.
"No need to explain, the emperor has already made his decision." An Nuanzhi's voice was very calm. She knew exactly what she was talking about and what she was doing.
Guilt flashed across Zhuo Fengya's eyes. She knew that An Nuanzhi was helping her take the blame. She also wanted to tell the truth, but she didn't have the courage at all. She pinched herself as if she hated herself.
In the palm of his hand, he glanced at He Ming hatefully.
"Come on, put the queen in a water prison! I don't want to see her disgusting face!" Lan Nian'an looked disgusted. The relationship between the two of them that had just eased hit the rocks again. It seems that Lan Nian'an may never see her again in this life.
I will never forgive An Nuanzhi.
The guilt in Zhuo Fei's eyes grew bigger and bigger. She secretly blamed herself for being "cowardly" and helplessly watched her good sister suffer on her behalf...
Feeling very uncomfortable, Concubine Zhuo glanced at Heming again. Heming also knew that he was too selfish and lowered his head in shame...
One step, two steps... Seeing that An Nuanzhi was about to be taken away by the guards, Zhuo Fengya couldn't bear it any longer. She knew that the water prison could not even hold a strong male prisoner, let alone a skinny An Nuanzhi.
A thin and petite woman?
But she can't tell the truth. If she tells the truth, not just one person will die...
Just when Concubine Zhuo was at her wits end, her eyes suddenly fell on her bulging belly, and by the way, there was this baby...
An Nuanzhi was about to be taken out of the palace, but "Ah!" she only heard a scream from the palace maids, and then many people ran over. She turned back subconsciously. The dragon palace was already in chaos. What happened?
The incident happened suddenly. He Ming was closest to Zhuo Concubine, and her face was the ugliest. She looked at the pool of blood under her skirt and said hurriedly, "It's not good, it's not good, Concubine Zhuo has had a miscarriage!"
Everyone was even more confused, and Lan Nianan also walked over.
"Quick, hurry up and declare the imperial doctor!"
