When Mo Zeyuan saw this, his handsome face was very surprised, "Sister-in-law Sihuang, what's wrong with you?"
Of course, Lu Qingtang couldn't be said to have been pushed. Since the other party dared to kill people, he couldn't be an ordinary person.
Mo Zeshen is not in Yanling now, so it is important to save his life alone.
"Replying to Prince Rui, I accidentally fell into the river, and my maid accidentally fell down and fainted because she was anxious." Lu Qingtang saluted to Mo Zeyuan.
This is false at first sight.
Let’s talk about Lu Qingtang first. This trail is quite far away from the river. No matter how careless you are, you shouldn’t slip and fall into the river.
Even if she was not careful, how did Su Mu fall unconscious?
This is flat ground, no matter how hard you fall, you won't faint, right?
It’s hard to believe this lie, it’s so false.
Needless to say, this was a cover-up for the murderer. As for what he was covering up, Mo Zeyuan didn't want to know.
He only knew that Mo Zeshen asked him to take care of Lu Qingtang before he left. As long as he kept his promise, he didn't care about anything else.
Thinking of this, Mo Zeyuan said: "In that case, why don't I send the emperor's wife back."
"Thank you so much, Prince Rui." Lu Qingtang saluted Mo Zeyuan again.
Back at Longqing Palace, Lu Qingtang signaled not to disturb the Queen Mother. Mo Zeyuan understood, so he sent the master and servant to the side hall and left quietly.
The shocked Lu Qingtang still did not forget to give the unconscious Su Mu acupuncture. After Su Mu woke up, he hugged the wet Lu Qingtang and cried non-stop.
She was frightened.
Lu Qingtang seemed to be frightened. She reached out and patted Su Mu's shoulder, murmuring: "Su Mu, we are recruiting someone for a plot today. Do you know who that person is?"
"I don't know." Su Mu shook his head.
Her mind was completely blank now, except for fear.
Lu Qingtang reached out and took off the jewelry on his head, his eyes cold, "My good mother-in-law did all this. She wants me to die."
On the day when Concubine Shu's plaster was removed, Concubine Ning took the initiative to invite Lu Qingtang to participate in the Begging for Skills Festival, and the trap that day was already laid.
She knew that Lu Qingtang would not watch the queen get sick, so she gave the queen a red-backed spider, poisoning the queen, and stole the quick-acting heart-saving pills that Aunt Gao carried.
If the queen is not rescued, Lu Qingtang will not be able to escape the relationship, and Concubine Ning can kill two birds with one stone.
I just didn't expect that Lu Qingtang could not only cure diseases, but also detoxify, so he had no choice but to send someone to assassinate him.
What made her even more unexpected was that this Lu Qingtang was not the other Lu Qingtang, and her plan was about to fail again.
After listening to Lu Qingtang's words, Su Mu couldn't help but shudder.
She didn't believe that a mother-in-law would kill her daughter-in-law, not to mention that Lu Qingtang was still pregnant with a child.
"I don't know Concubine Ning's motives, but she must have done this. Does she think I'm a weakling and can be manipulated by her?" Lu Qingtang narrowed his eyes and sneered.
She must keep this grudge firmly in mind today and will definitely return it to her if she has the chance!
Su Mu felt much better after resting for a while, and ordered the servants in the side hall to prepare bath water for Lu Qingtang.
After waiting for Lu Qingtang to take a bath, it was almost dawn. Su Mu squinted for a while, and followed Lu Qingtang's instructions before going to bed. He took the key to Longqing Palace and left the palace. After returning to Prince Chen's Mansion, he told Mo Zeshen what he wanted. Yu Bai.
Yu Bai naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately rode to Hengzhou to report the news.
Not long after Su Mu left Longqing Palace, Lu Qingtang woke up, had a meal with the palace servants, and then saw Concubine Shu coming in a hurry.
Even if the incident of falling into the water last night was kept secret, some of it would still be revealed.
Concubine Shu was frightened when she learned about it early in the morning. After attending the Queen's call in the morning, the first thing she did was to come to Lu Qingtang.
"Are you okay? I should have sent someone from my palace to take you back last night, but I was negligent!" Concubine Shu's face was full of guilt, and she was sweating with anxiety.
As soon as he entered the palace, he left the two palace maids beside him and walked quickly to Lu Qingtang.
Lu Qingtang looked indifferent, picked up the handkerchief and wiped it for her, "Concubine Shu is too anxious. Sit down and finish the porridge. Lotus seed lily glutinous rice porridge is the best way to calm down the heat."
After saying that, the maid next to her filled a bowl for Concubine Shu. Qing Yao next to Concubine Shu was about to reach out to take it when another maid took it over.
This palace maid is named Xiyu, and she is always careless in what she says and does.
She placed the lotus seed porridge in front of Concubine Shu, and inadvertently raised her head, just in time to look at Lu Qingtang.
The twinkling in her eyes seemed to be escaping from something, and she immediately lowered her head.
There is something wrong with this palace maid.
"You all please step aside, we can talk freely." Lu Qingtang lowered his head and took a sip of porridge and said to the palace people in the palace.
After listening to Lu Qingtang's words, all the palace officials withdrew.
Seeing this, Concubine Shu also asked Xiyu and Qingyao to wait for her outside.
At this moment, only Concubine Shu and Lu Qingtang were left in the side hall.
Concubine Shu understood Lu Qingtang's intention and immediately said, "It was Concubine Ning's people who did it yesterday, right? We're going to do it again, right?"
There were tears in her eyes, her eyes were red, and her eyes were full of unwillingness.
Lu Qingtang nodded, raised his hand to pick up a yellow beef bun in a bowl with red goldfish on it, and tore it open with his white and slender fingers, revealing the oily meat filling.
Concubine Shu had forgotten to take this bowl back when she came to deliver cakes a few days ago, so she put it here for her use.
"I knew it was her. Because of my favor, Your Majesty asked me to co-manage the Sixth Palace with her, but she thought I was in the way." Concubine Shu's eyes were full of coldness, "That day, I was in the Imperial Garden, and my arm was suddenly broken. Pushed into the water. I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but I'm sure this was Concubine Ning's idea. No one in this palace is more ruthless than her!"
While Lu Qingtang listened, he lowered his head and took a bite of the meat filling in the bun, "Did you take Xiyu out that day?"
She remembered clearly that when she rescued Concubine Shu that day, only Qing Yao was by her side.
Concubine Shu didn't understand why Lu Qingtang asked this, so she replied: "By the way, Xiyu said that the impatiens in the imperial garden are in bloom, I..."
She seemed to understand what Lu Qingtang meant.
"Impossible, Xiyu was from when I was at my parents' home... This is impossible..." Concubine Shu shook her head, her eyes full of disbelief.
How could she believe that the maid who had been with her since childhood would betray her.
This is impossible!
Concubine Shu's face turned pale, and her eyes became cold.
I vaguely remember that when I fell into the water, Xiyu was beside me. She knew how to swim but she looked stunned.
Concubine Shu watched helplessly as Xiyu's figure gradually disappeared. Only Qingyao, who couldn't swim, was asking for help everywhere.
Afterwards, she naively thought that Xiyu was frightened and comforted her.
It’s ridiculous to think about it now!
Seeing Concubine Shu shaking with anger, Lu Qingtang quickly stood up to help her, "Just know it, don't show it, let her see the clues. If you want to know if Concubine Ning is responsible, you can start with Xiyu."
Just now, she had already thought of a way to deal with Concubine Ning.
If she doesn't want to lose her life, she has to skin her!
