Wu Ersha didn't care that his little thoughts were revealed by Zhu Ruiying. Zhu Ruiying also admired his boldness. Wu Ersha didn't care about the imperial edict's request. He also knew that there was no hope. In the end, he could still retreat in front of the public. One step, change the three conditions into two, and their tribe will not suffer any loss.
This is the purpose of their surrender. Blindly resisting the enemy will really consume their original strength. What they have to do now is to seize Emperor Xie's psychology and take advantage of the loophole. If it succeeds, the Xiyu clan will not only gain a lot of Big benefit, and you can also have time to grow alone without being disturbed by other armies.
"A year of pulling and pulling has begun. My father's strength cannot be underestimated. I hope the military advisor will be careful. Of course, if necessary, please ask the military advisor to show mercy."
"Don't worry, Miss Zhu has helped me so much, so naturally I won't retaliate for kindness."
Wu Ersha's words were somewhat true. After all, Zhu Ruiying did save his life. Before that, after he was poisoned, he had actually been counting the days in those days.
When Zhu Ruiying said that he knew medical skills, Wu Ersha had no hope. The doctors in their tribe were really good at medicine, but all they could do was prolong his life for a few years, so he said. Even a doctor couldn't do it, so how could he have any hope for a little girl like Zhu Ruiying.
However, the fact is that Zhu Ruiying's medicine actually cured his poison.
When the poison was first resolved, Wu Ersha was still in disbelief for a while.
Who would be ungrateful if a dying person was rescued?
Wu Ersha's admiration and gratitude for Zhu Ruiying exists, and if there is an opportunity in the future, he will try his best to help.
Of course, this is still under the premise of not harming his own interests. If it were not within this premise, according to Wu Ersha's nature, he would naturally not be lenient in repaying kindness with hatred.
Needless to say, Zhu Ruiying naturally knew how ruthless this person was.
Fortunately, even if she wanted something from him in the future, she would not touch his interests.
In the next year, the war on the Xiyu clan continued, but the economy of Dachang had been greatly affected by the war.
These are all expected and bound to happen, no one is surprised, but those who have headaches still have headaches, and those who have submitted remonstrances have never heard of them. Emperor Xie gave many suggestions on the economy and some ministers in the court It gave me a headache.
Zhu Ruiying observed the situation and knew that Emperor Xie was about to relent, and it was time for Wu Ersha to prepare to give in.
This matter is progressing very smoothly, and its development has never been a concern to Zhu Ruiying. She only needs to ensure that her family members are safe and sound.
In this year, the battle in the harem also started, and Zhu Ruiying happened to catch up and watched the show twice.
The first time, she was secretly poking gold in Concubine Shu's palace. Xie Yuan didn't like her very much now and was playing by himself with his back to her at the moment. Concubine Shu was reading a book on the imperial concubine chair not far away. At that time, she I almost fell asleep watching it.
Both adults and children had things to do, and the queen and some concubines suddenly came over at this time. The announcement of the arrival of the queen and the arrival of this concubine and that concubine disturbed the entire Shuyang Palace.
Concubine Shu was naturally awakened.
At that time, Yao Bao managed to take advantage of the chaos to throw the gold into the Consciousness Sea, and Xie Yuan also managed to push away an orange. The two little children both looked towards the Queen.
"I have met the Queen."
"Concubine Shu, please get back on your feet."
Concubine Shu raised her head slightly and glanced at the people behind the queen. In addition to a few concubines and a few maids, she also brought a bunch of eunuchs. In total, there were about twenty maids and eunuchs.
The Wuyangyang group of people successfully alerted Concubine Shu, with a puzzled look on her face.
"Queen, what is this?"
Mei Concubine, who was beside the Queen, spoke first, her tone was quite respectful: "My Lady, Concubine Shu, someone has accused you of practicing witchcraft in the palace."
"This, the Queen, this is nothing but nonsense. Please be aware of it, the Queen."
Concubine Shu was very good at showing off her appearance, and her shocked expression was just right.
Li Guiren jumped out, covered his face, chuckled, and said in a high-pitched voice: "Shu Fei, don't worry, isn't the Queen already here, are you ready to investigate? If you have wronged Shu Fei, the Queen will definitely make the decision for you. , severely punish those dog slaves who bite randomly, I just hope that Concubine Shu is really innocent."
"I have a clear conscience."
The Queen spoke at this time: "I certainly believe in Concubine Shu, but this matter has been brought to my attention. I cannot ignore it. Concubine Shu, don't worry. I believe in you. Today's search is just an investigation." If you look like this, you should accept it, so that I can severely punish those who wantonly bite Concubine Shu."
Concubine Shu nodded slightly. All the queen's scenes had been completed, and the main show would begin immediately.
As the maids and eunuchs searched the palace, Zhu Ruiying knew that Concubine Shu was in trouble this time, and the queen came prepared.
But seeing how Concubine Shu looks like this, she may have been prepared for it. What the situation looks like now depends on which of the two has greater means.
Not long after, I heard the exclamation of a palace maid. The concubines immediately followed the queen to check the situation, and concubines Shu followed closely behind.
Seeing the scene inside, everyone's expressions changed, and the palace maids and eunuchs knelt on the ground.
Zhu Ruiying and Xie Yuan were both children who could understand the situation. Knowing that this matter was of great importance, they both stood up and walked over to the place where the incident happened.
Li Guiren walked over and picked up the two little rag dolls with spooky faces on the ground. He turned his hand and saw the words on the back of the dolls. Li Guiren screamed instantly. The dolls fell off her hands. She was horrified. He looked at Concubine Shu, and then looked at the Queen tremblingly.
The queen frowned slightly: "What happened? You were so surprised?"
"Empress, on those two dolls are written the names of Queen, and, and the Emperor!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and looked at Concubine Shu.
Doubts flashed across Concubine Shu's eyes, and her eyes fell on the two witchcraft dolls on the ground.
Ever since she was named the imperial concubine, she knew that a fatal disaster would surely come to her, so she tried her best to be on guard, especially in her palace, where the people serving her were through Qing'er and Qin'er. The two maids of honor personally screened him, and everyone knew the details.
How could this happen?
Still in her bedroom.
Qing'er and Qin'er would take turns checking her dormitory every day.
Qing'er was brought with her when she got married, and Qin'er was later sent to the palace by her mother. In this palace, she trusted them more than the emperor.
Concubine Shu had doubts in her eyes and sadness in her heart. She wondered how the queen had sent this thing to her palace. What was sad was that she even included the emperor. The emperor is the king of a country, and good health is related to the destiny of the country. The queen No matter how much you hate yourself, you can't act like this.
"Concubine Shu, what else do you have to say?"
The queen's voice became colder, and Concubine Shu's usual gentle look was gone, leaving only a serious look.
There were only her and Qin'er on Concubine Shu's side. Not far away were Xie Yuan and Zhu Ruiying who came to watch the excitement. Opposite her was a large group of people headed by the Queen, which formed a great oppression. feel.
"I don't think so. I have never done anything like this. Someone framed me."
Concubine Mei looked puzzled, and hesitantly spoke slowly: "Empress Shu, Concubine Shu, said she was framed, but who can frame Concubine Shu?"
"Empress, I would like to ask the Queen to conduct a thorough investigation. Although this witchcraft doll is said to be in my palace, it remains to be investigated whether it was really made by me."
Zhu Ruiying observed every word and every move of Concubine Shu. Although Concubine Shu was besieged and in a weak position, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no fear on her face. Logically speaking, if such a big pot was taken down, no matter whether she did it or not. If she did, anyone would panic. After all, if she really blamed herself for this matter, then there would be only death waiting for her.
Fear and panic are actually a reasonable reaction, but Concubine Shu didn't have it from beginning to end.
Then there are only two situations that can be explained.
Either Concubine Shu has a plan, and this is just a trick on her part, and she has a way to escape, or there is someone behind her to protect her, and no matter what, she will be fine.
former……
Zhu Ruiying thought about Concubine Shu's abilities and felt that it was really impossible.
So, is she so sure that the emperor will protect her?
Just as Zhu Ruiying was thinking about it, Qin'er, who was standing quietly beside Concubine Shu, suddenly knelt down.
"This slave knows his sin, this slave knows his sin!"
Concubine Shu was startled, thinking that Qin'er was going to do something stupid on her own initiative, so she immediately shouted: "Qin'er..."
But before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the queen: "Qin'er, what do you mean by these words?"
"The Queen's atonement is the slave's fault. It's all the slave's fault. The Concubine Shu is so kind to the slave. I really shouldn't have let the Concubine Shu go astray. I really shouldn't have been so useless and failed to persuade the Concubine Shu. ah!"
Zhu Ruiying's eyes widened. Will Qin'er betray Concubine Shu?
To be honest, I didn't expect this from her.
She often went to the palace, and in the past two years, apart from Xie Yuan and Concubine Shu, she had the most contact with Qin'er.
Qing'er is always with Zhu, and Qin'er actually spends the most time taking care of her and Xie Yuan.
Even if things developed to this point, Zhu Ruiying still had doubts and did not fully believe that Qin'er betrayed Concubine Shu. She could not find the motive for Qin'er's rebellion.
The queen said coldly: "Concubine Shu, the little eunuch in your palace has personally stood up to identify you, and your personal maid has confessed in person. What else can you say? I understand that you hate me, but you are under the influence of the emperor." Well, how can you feel at ease when you treat the emperor like this?"
