...

After stepping into the cold palace courtyard, the empress dowager stepped on the snow and did not feel slippery, but the captain next to him rushed forward and raised his hand, so that the empress dowager could catch it.

Nothing is useful in the yard, and the solemn winter makes it very deserted.

There are two small houses on the right, and the Queen Mother can smell a faint smell of sandalwood from it.

The captain coughed lightly and raised his voice and said, "The Empress Dowager is here, come and welcome you!"

There was no movement inside.

The captain was furious and was about to shout a second time, but the queen mother stopped him, "I'll go there myself!"

As she said that, she stepped up the steps of the cottage and stood under the eaves.

At this moment, the door inside gently pushed open, revealing a woman in white.

The imperial palace is originally a place where beauties in the world gather, and even the palace maids are very beautiful.

The captain was used to seeing the beautiful women, but his eyes widened as soon as he saw the woman in white.

The Qianniuwei behind him almost even stared out his eyes.

If you want to be pretty, you will be filial.

Women are very beautiful when wearing white clothes, not to mention that this woman is surprisingly beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people unable to describe it in words.

Even a white robe worn in winter, which was worn on her body, did not look bloated at all, but instead added a touching atmosphere.

Not only them, but even the Queen Mother looked a little stunning.

The first time the empress dowager met her was on the wedding night when she married King Ren. She stabbed the prince with a small knife and stabbed the prince in a hole, and then cut her throat directly.

At that time, her clothes were covered with blood, and her face was also covered with charming and terrifying, so the Queen Mother didn't look at it much.

Today, the Queen Mother looked at her white body and her clean face, and suddenly felt, no wonder my two grandchildren were addicted to her. This woman is really the best beauty in the world.

The woman in white saluted a little, then raised her hand and said, "Empress Dowager, I made a pot of tea. Do you want to come in and have a drink?"

"good."

The Queen Mother stepped in.

"Empress?"

The Qianniu Wei Captain woke up from his charm with great perseverance, "Please be careful!"

"You stand below and wait." The Queen Mother waved her hand and walked in.

The captain was worried, but he did not dare to disobey the order. He had to take a few steps back and stand below, but looked inside without moving, holding the handle of the knife in his hand tightly.

No matter how beautiful this girl is, protecting the Empress Dowager is still his ultimate goal.

She was not afraid at all, and after entering the house, she sat on the rush mat.

Then he watched the woman in white sit down in front of him and split the tea from the large teapot.

The table in front of me was very big, and incense slices were burning in the small incense burner. The smell of sandalwood just now came out from here.

A small stove under the teapot is made of high-quality charcoal, which has no smell.

There are honeycomb coal stoves burning around the corners of the house. Even if you have two windows and doors open, you won’t feel cold.

While drinking tea, the Queen Mother said, "Is this Qimen black tea?"

The elderly like to drink some tea, which not only nourishes their health, but also eliminates fatigue.

However, the Queen Mother is over the age of drinking green tea. She drinks some oolong tea and white tea on weekdays, but she can only drink warmer black tea in winter.

This Kiermen black tea is worse than what she usually drinks, but it is also top-quality.

The woman in white nodded: "This was sent by them before. I think I was going to give it to you all, but because of my special identity and they don't know who I am, they gave me one."

Her voice was very light and very nice.

However, there was no anger in the voice, as if the whole person was empty and soulless.

The Queen Mother smiled, "It's okay, you live a better life, so you can naturally say more."

"I have said everything I can say, without any concealment." The woman in white poured her a second cup of tea and drank it in small sips. "Now they haven't found the evidence yet, have the person?"

"No."

The Queen Mother frowned a little.

The Empress Dowager was not interested in the government affairs on weekdays, but she was very concerned about how to find Li Fan, how to find Zhu Pingchuan, and how to find "Iron Bird".

Because it contains the lives of her two grandsons.

It is crucial to know the ins and outs of it.

The empress dowager's persistence made Gao Jing, who was already under great pressure, quite nervous. Even in the autumn and winter, and the northwest environment was harsh, he still sent countless elite soldiers and generals to come.

He even used the relationship between the Yiwang Mansion and went to the small tribe alliance to find someone to ask.

However, it is still useless, and so far there is no useful news.

While Gao Jing was constantly scolded, the Empress Dowager was in a bad mood.

"Then there is nothing to do." The woman in white said, "If the other party is not present, even if there is my father's letter and token, it will not be a final conclusion... so you have to support me for a while."

The Queen Mother frowned again: "Why are you determined to die? Don't you want to live?"

"In no mood."

The woman in white shook her head, "I have no relatives and no reason, and I have to take revenge. What's the point of living?"

The Empress Dowager lived for most of her life and spent decades in the palace. She still understands people's hearts very well.

She could naturally see whether a person was telling the truth or being insincere.

What the woman in white said was naturally true, and the ethereality all over her body represented everything.

The Queen Mother was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you want to live?"

"There is nothing to live?" The woman in white looked at her in surprise, "Mrs. Queen Mother, what do you mean? Are you here specifically today to let the little girl have a way out?"

The Queen Mother didn't say anything.

The woman in white pondered and said, "You should hate me for killing the prince. But I don't have this disgust and hatred in my eyes, but I still have a little interest in exploring.

Adding to your verbal test just now, I guess... it was because of Liu Mingqi?"

The Queen Mother's pupils suddenly shrank.

This woman hid everyone and finally killed Niong. She was really scheming!

She looked at the woman in white and said, "Qiu Xiang, it's not a good thing for a woman to be too smart."

After talking for a long time, the woman in white killed Qiu Xiang, who was the one who killed King Ren Liu Mingyu.

Since the case happened, she has been detained in the cold palace and no one can see her.

Even Gao Jing wanted to interrogate her, he had to get the emperor's approval.

Qiu Xiang chuckled: "Please call me Zhang Yuexiang, this is my real name. Since I took revenge, I will not be named "Qiu"."

People always call her "Quo" Xiang, but they don't know that her "revenge" is revenge.

From this we can also know how deliberate she is.

The Empress Dowager ignored her words, "You don't like Mingqi at all, why do you still get trapped him so deeply? Even though you know that you are doing a great evil deed of the whole family's execution, why do you still need him to get involved?"

If someone else said this, Qiu Xiang might have believed it.

But the one who spoke was the Empress Dowager.

Last time she and the prince and Liu Mingqi were chatting with each other, the prince once said that she had no need to ask the emperor to sue Liu Mingqi. Liu Mingqi had killed two or three hundred people in Xiqiu Village before, and was almost killed by Miao Yan.

Why?

Because Liu Mingqi is the queen mother's heart, no matter what happens, the queen mother will definitely protect him.

She remembered this, so she was not worried that she would implicate Liu Mingqi.

Therefore, she did not believe the threatening words the Queen Mother said now.

But Qiu Xiang would not reveal any whisper: "Actually, Liu Mingqi and I don't have any deep entanglements. He is a good child, but he is too naive and doesn't understand what a sinister world is... Haha, he really thinks that the prince is very good to him, but he is sincere? He doesn't understand the principle of being so powerful that the master is shocked! If the prince succeeds to the throne, haha!"

"presumptuous!"

The Queen Mother slapped the table and said, "Don't provoke discord!"

"It's fine if you don't believe it," Qiu Xiang said lightly, "Anyway, in the royal family, mediocre talents are allowed and absurd children are allowed, but like Liu Mingqi, who can change the trend of the world, can people who can change the trend of the world be afraid?"

"Shut up!"

The Queen Mother looked at her and a hint of coldness flashed through her eyes.

Qiu Xiang thought she was unhappy with the prince, but she didn't know that the queen mother was thinking more.

In a state of confusion, the Queen Mother stood up: "Since the matter has not been resolved, just stay alive!"

After saying that, she turned around and walked out.
