Mountains and rivers pray for peace

Chapter 166
Seeing that he was noncommittal, Huo Qi became more and more sure of what he thought.She didn't even have time to pay attention to Shen Yuning's actions just now, and quickly clapped her hands and said: "Since the concubine Zhen knew that Concubine Shu was the one who harmed her, why didn't Chunxiao involve Concubine Shu in it, but instead only cleaned up the jadeite?"

Hitting a snake and hitting seven inches is the simplest truth. Since the concubine can set up this game, she won't even understand this.

Shen Yuning asked, "What if the concubine doesn't want to keep that child?"

"You mean..." Huo Qi stared at him blankly, "How could..."

"You rarely get so excited." Shen Yuning noticed Huo Qi's gaffe.

Huo Qi lowered his eyes and covered the emotions in his eyes: "In the eyes of the world, women naturally carry the teaching of motherhood, and they must protect their children even if they sacrifice themselves. Tonight, everyone present at Shuchunxuan probably felt that , Concubine Zhen must be heartbroken when she suddenly loses her son, but she never would have guessed that she had her own handiwork behind it."

Huo Qi's heart ached, and he suddenly remembered the dusty past.

She also had a child in her previous life.

Less than three months after she was pregnant with that child, she had already noticed the movements behind the Yuan family's back, and had a quarrel with Yuan Shao.At that time, her fate with that child was still short, and she had never gotten along with him before, so naturally she didn't have any feelings for him.Even if she was willing to take away that child, Yuan Shao might not take her life ruthlessly, because Yuan Shao's biggest purpose is to prevent the blood of the Huo family from staying in the world.As for her life, it was insignificant.

But she still couldn't bear it.

Because in her previous life, she was a well-behaved person.If she took away the child, she would feel that she was risking the disgrace of the world and was not worthy of being a mother, let alone a human being.

Shen Yuning said slowly: "Have you forgotten that the concubine's name is Liu Qi?"

Huo Qi read Shen Yuning's words, and suddenly remembered: "Is the concubine the daughter of the Liu family?"

At that time, Liu Fang killed Qin Xiaolian's lover and ended up being executed by his queen.In order to compensate the Liu family, Emperor Xiaowen allowed Liu's daughter to enter the palace.Because Liu Tiangang did not have a biological daughter, he had to choose his niece Liu Qi.

Liu is still so young, he must have been forced to enter the palace.This design is nothing more than a struggle for freedom.Huo Qi suddenly understood the choice of the concubine Zhen.

Shen Yuning noticed Huo Qi's absence and tapped her head with his slender fingers, forcing her to come back to her senses: "So you understand, in this case, the child is just a shackles for the concubine. Survival by cutting off the tail is human. Instinct. As for being strong as a mother? Huo Qi, don't be fooled by those mean words."

Huo Qi was speechless by his words.

She behaves well and believes in the so-called gentleman's way with all her heart. Even though she has changed in this life, she still cannot completely abandon it because of her habits.

But Shen Yuning was very different from her.

He regards dogma as nothing and is free, as if the laws of operation of all things in the world follow his will.But she had to admit, and also had to envy, that Shen Yuning had a vitality that no one else had.

She suddenly felt that Shen Yuning was really an interesting person.

Shen Yuning caught a glimpse of her eyes and said, "Do you believe it?"

"No, I think it makes sense." Huo Qi laughed.

Shen Yuning gave her a strange look, and then said: "Concubine Zhen is not a fool, she may not want to take revenge on Concubine Shu, but she understands the emperor better than you—sometimes, there is room for doing things, but it is more imaginative."

Huo Qi was slightly startled. Indeed, on the surface, Emperor Xiaowen only revealed jade and blue clouds, but does this mean that Emperor Xiaowen had no other speculations?
Liu Yizheng, who claims to be "not skilled in medicine" and has never noticed the musk in the palace of the concubine Zhen, Shao Zhen who forgot to interrogate Le Xuan for a moment, and those people who talk nonsense about the concubine Zhen being haunted by ghosts...these people all have their own blood. Suspicious point, Emperor Xiaowen may not have thought of someone behind him.On the contrary, perhaps it was precisely because he guessed that the person was Concubine Shu that he killed Fei Cui and Biyun and settled the matter without further investigation.

If the concubine really asked Chunxiao to identify Concubine Shu, not only would she not be able to dismount Concubine Shu with one blow, but it would easily arouse Emperor Xiaowen's suspicion, and even make Emperor Xiaowen difficult to dismount.

"What is the last move of the concubine Zhen? Since she has paid such a high price, she should not let it go." Huo Qi said immediately.

Shen Yuning glanced at her: "You will know soon."

Huo Qi was stunned for a while, and just about to speak, Shen Yuning handed the silk palace lantern to her palm: "Going around here is the Yupeng Temple. If you are not afraid, I don't mind sending the Buddha to the west. "

It was only then that Huo Qi realized that the Yupeng Palace was in front of him. Being teased by Shen Yuning, she retracted her words and said flatly: "Thank you for your trouble, don't stay here tonight", turned around and walked towards the corner.

It wasn't until Huo Qi's figure completely disappeared around the corner that a tall and burly figure appeared behind Shen Yuning, it was Cheng Chang.

Cheng Chang bowed his head and bowed: "Your Highness, no one saw you all the way."

Cheng Chang was complaining in his heart. His Highness had really gone to great lengths to meet Miss Huo just to be honest.First, he deliberately met the fifth prince who was going to Shuchunxuan, and then told a blatant lie that he was on the way to Jing'an Palace and Yupeng Palace.He was also afraid that the people in the palace would be too distracted and cause trouble for Miss Huo, so she sent him to follow her all the way.

It's a pity that Miss Huo doesn't know anything, and His Highness said nothing!

Shen Yuning gave a "hmm" and then asked, "How is the cultivation of the secret way?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the construction will be completed soon!" Cheng Changfei said quickly.

Shen Yuning nodded: "Tomorrow I will go out of the palace and let Tang Zhiyao come to see me."

**
In another corner of the palace, someone was also whispering softly.

The fifth prince finally blocked Lexuan outside Shangyin Garden.

He wanted to blame Le Xuan for not taking his own life seriously, but seeing that her face was ashen, he couldn't say any more words of blame.

That day, Lexuan asked him for something. He wrote the request on a piece of paper in the kit and asked him to open it ten days later.

It was true that he was in a happy mood at the time, but when he calmed down, he discovered Le Xuan's abnormality.How could someone as arrogant as Le Xuan suddenly ask him to do something?
Unable to hold back, he opened the kit, only to find that what Le Xuan asked for was to ask him to collect her body and bury her body with Le Yun.

He was terrified, and immediately ordered his subordinates to follow Le Xuan, only to find out that she was actually planning to attack the concubine Zhen, and both were destroyed.He didn't know why Le Xuan wanted to attack the concubine Zhen, and he didn't care.He even gave a secret push to make Le Xuan's plan go more smoothly.But he could never tolerate Le Xuan disregarding his own life.

Therefore, when he was at Shuchunxuan, he hinted that Lexuan would blame everything on Huo Qi. After all, Huo Qi was suspected of being an invitation to buy a palace maid, and he had constant access to the pajamas, so he had the best chance to make a move.As long as he finds a scapegoat, he will clean up all the traces of Le Xuan, so that everything is flawless.

Although things did not develop according to his idea in the end, fortunately there was no danger tonight, and Le Xuan was safe and sound.

He supported Le Xuan's shoulder and whispered softly: "In the future, you can no longer do such stupid things of fighting for your life. Even if you really want to do it, you can tell me that you don't need to dirty your hands."

Even if the person in front of him said such beautiful words of love, Le Xuan's face was not moved at all.In her heart, there was only endless hatred and guilt.

She didn't need to think about it to know what Shen Yuxian was thinking.It was indeed her doing the pajamas thing.But what she was thinking at the time was that the musk on her pajamas would lead to Zhen's false pregnancy. As long as Zhen's punishment was due, she would commit suicide and go to the underworld to reunite with Le Yun.

She really has no nostalgia for this world.
