I saw Queen Xue throwing out the bait in her hand, smiling as she watched the koi fish competing for food, and said, "Changding, have you seen it? As long as there is food, these fish will be happy."
so what?
What does Queen Xue want to say?
Zheng Ji looked at the koi that were splashing happily and didn't answer.
"Changding, I heard that Du Tong's youngest son was born weak, so he was sent to Hedong for foster care since he was a child?"
Without waiting for Zheng Ji's answer, she added: "I also heard that the Du Duan who gave you advice...is from Hedong? Both are from Hedong, and both have the surname Du. Chang Ding, don't you think this is too coincidental? What’s up?”
At this time, Zheng Ji finally looked at Queen Xue, nodded and replied, "Indeed, what a coincidence."
It’s actually related to Feng Ju!
Queen Xue stopped her here specifically to talk about Feng Ju!
Even though she was sure of Feng Ju's identity and was fully prepared, at this moment, her heart still beat involuntarily.
Fortunately, her coldness in the Zichen Palace just now has not completely faded away, and she can restrain herself to cover it up.
What did Queen Xue mean by specifically stopping her to say these words?
Is it a threat or a temptation?
No matter what it was, Zheng Ji knew that he could only act as if nothing had happened.
Otherwise, Queen Xue will notice the clues immediately.
Queen Xue glanced at her, with a smile on her dignified face, and said, "Didn't Chang Ding say that something happened? I have finished speaking, you can leave."
"...Yes, Queen, I have resigned." Zheng Ji became more and more calm, and then left with Queen Xue.
He didn't look back and seemed to have no intention of questioning Queen Xue's words.
Queen Xue, on the other hand, kept looking at her back with thoughtful eyes.
It wasn't until Zheng Ji's figure was out of sight that Queen Xue withdrew her gaze and looked at the koi swimming back and forth again.
"Fu Fen, what do you think?" Queen Xue asked casually as she walked leisurely.
Aunt Fu Fen immediately replied: "Back to your Majesty, Your Highness Chang Ding walks calmly and breathes calmly. He doesn't seem to be worried."
Queen Xue laughed, motioned to the palace maid holding the bait box to come forward, grabbed another handful of bait and threw it out.
"Fu Fen, you still didn't look carefully enough. People can really act smart sometimes."
Chang Ding's Hidden Ning Qi skill was so good that nothing was exposed, but... he was still too young!
That's what makes it even more problematic.
It seemed that there must be some connection between Du Tong's youngest son and Du Duan from Wuge. She could send the secret guards to Hedong to investigate.
In this case, it was not in vain that she waited here for half an hour.
She knew that Chang Ding almost had an accident in the martial arts arena, she also knew that the emperor urgently ordered Chang Ding to enter the palace, and she even knew that two people in Chang Ding's team were seriously injured...
Under such circumstances, how would Chang Ding feel after being questioned by the emperor?
No matter what, there will be ups and downs.
Then, this is the time when Chang Ding's mind is most vulnerable.
What she had to do was take advantage of this opportunity to find out what she wanted to test.
She got her wish and got what she wanted, then...
Queen Xue took the fish bait box from the palace maid's hand, turned it over, and smiled as she watched the koi open their mouths and swallow the bait.
These things are really mindless. If you eat too much, you will be stuffed to death.
"Fu Fen, tell the prince to come to Kunning Palace. I want him to be happy." Queen Xue ordered calmly.
Since the death of Yu Youtang, the prince has become a little depressed, which in her opinion is unnecessary.
Changding is just a girl's house, nothing at all.
She will personally teach the prince how to seize the opponent's weakness and then give him a fatal blow!

"Xiaojiu, why do you look so ugly? What happened?
whats the matter? What's wrong? Concubine Jiang hugged Zheng Ji and asked repeatedly.
Qian Gu found out that Xiaojiu had left Zichen Palace for a long time, but had only come to Fuqing Palace now.
His face is unusually ugly. What's going on?
"Mother, I'm fine." Zheng Ji shook his head and replied, feeling that his body was gradually getting warmer.
Ever since she heard Queen Xue's two words, she felt like she was falling into an abyss, and she always had an uncontrollable sense of emptiness.
It wasn't until she came to Fuqing Palace and met her mother-in-law that she felt she had finally stepped on the ground.
All the discomfort that he had suppressed before burst out.
She originally didn't want to worry her mother and concubine, but she made a mistake and met Empress Xue, which made her mother and concubine even more worried.
"Mother Concubine..." Zheng Ji opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He took a few deep breaths before saying hoarsely: "Mother Concubine, I met Queen Xue."
Concubine Jiang was stunned for a moment: "Queen Xue?" Then she reacted and said angrily: "What did she do to you?"
Xiaojiu's face was pale, her hands and feet were cold, and she was obviously frightened.
Now Concubine Jiang does not think that Queen Xue is a dignified and virtuous person. Could it be that she used her status as the Queen to do something bad to Xiao Jiu?
Concubine Jiang has always protected her shortcomings, and now Xiaojiu meets Empress Xue like this. Although she doesn't know what happened yet, it must be Empress Xue who is at fault!
She hugged Zheng Ji tightly, patted her back gently, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Xiaojiu, my mother is here! Tell her, what happened?"
If Xue Xiushan really did something to Xiao Jiu, even if the other party is the Queen, she will fight tooth and nail to seek justice for Xiao Jiu!
She didn't fight or fight all these years just to let others bully her daughter!
She, Jiang Zhao, only dotes on the harem, and she is not just talking about it in vain. Xue Xiushan knows this best!
Due to her voice, even though Concubine Jiang spoke such domineering words, her tone was so delicate that she was not very convincing.
But these words, like a warm spring breeze, soothed Zheng Ji and made her finally calm down.
"Mother, she didn't do anything to me. Look at me, everything is good." Zheng Ji replied after calming down.
In order to reassure the mother-in-law, she reached out and patted her shoulders and chest to express that she was fine.
"Then... why are you like this?" Concubine Jiang did not relax.
Although Xiao Jiu was not injured, there were many injuries in the harem that made people unable to see the wounds.
Concubine Jiang Gui knew this very well.
Especially Queen Xue Xue Xiushan, even if she did something harmful, no one would notice her.
Zheng Ji spoke out what Empress Xue said, and finally said: "Concubine, I thought she was waiting there because of Xie Yi and Fan Li, but it turned out to be because of Feng Ju. What do you think...she is? What do you mean? What does she want to do?"
She really couldn't understand Queen Xue's behavior.
Will it be clear that the mother-in-law has been with Queen Xue for a longer time?
Concubine Jiang shook her head and replied, "She usually lives in seclusion. I really don't know her well."
In fact, if it weren't for things like Prince Zheng Zheng, she really thought that Xue Xiushan was really a person who had nothing to do with the world.
Hearing what his mother-in-law said, Zheng Ji fell silent.
Queen Xue specifically mentioned Feng Ju, was she trying to be mysterious? Could Queen Xue's move be related to Fan Li, Xie Yi and others?
At this moment, she had no choice but to guess.
Fortunately, when she left the palace and returned to Princess Changding's mansion, Zhang Jian hurriedly greeted her and said, "Your Highness, the relationship between Xie Yi and Fan Li has been found out!"
"Third update! Thank you everyone!"
