Chapter 38
Chapter 38 Out of the silt but not stained (14)
“what?”
“Nothing.” Song Qi withdrew his hand, pretending that nothing happened.
Meng Yilan looked at Song Qi.
Song Qi noticed that Meng Yilan had been staring at him, took a piece of pastry and handed it to the other party’s lips: “Lean, eat more.”
“Really?” Meng Yilan rubbed her stomach, she thought she was fat.
It’s not good here. You can’t even weigh your body, you can only check it visually.
“Yeah.” Song Qi said without changing his face.
Meng Yilan ate the cakes with Song Qi’s hands, and felt that he could have another one.
Two people soaked for half an hour and then went up.
After changing his clothes and returning to the bedroom, he saw Zhao Zhi sitting on the soft couch.
He looked at the two people who came in together.
Zhao Zhi didn’t know if it was his own illusion, and he always felt a little strange.
He subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed his head: “Go to the hot spring?”
“Yeah.” Song Qi nodded.
“Two people?”
“Well, can’t it?” Song Qi looked at Zhao Zhi.
Zhao Zhi:…
“It’s okay.” It just feels a little weird.
“What’s the matter?” Song Qi sat down in another place, and Meng Yilan leaned against her.
Zhao Zhi: It feels even more strange.
“The lady of the palace has arranged for you again and can move back at any time.” Zhao Zhi didn’t actually come to talk about this, but… when he saw the two people close together, he didn’t know how he had said this.
Meng Yilan glanced at Zhao Zhi with a bad look.
Zhao Zhi felt it, and glanced at Meng Yilan, but the other party had already lowered his head, again with that gentle appearance.
Zhao Zhi:? ? ?
“Okay, I see.” Song Qi nodded, feeling Meng Yilan behind her grabbing her clothes.
Song Qi turned his head and patted her hand.
“The emperor, you shouldn’t have just come to inform me of this, right?”
Zhao Zhi took a deep breath: “The other thing is, all the people of yesterday are dead.”
Song Qi frowned: “How did you die?”
“Someone sneaked in last night and killed everyone.” Zhao Zhi squeezed his fist. “The group of people is more tricky than we thought.”
Who needs to be able to come and go freely in the palace, and no one else will find out.
He looked at Song Qi, then glanced subconsciously: “Move back early.”
“Yeah.” Song Qi nodded.
Meng Yilan glanced at Zhao Zhi again.
Song Qi knew that Zhao Zhi probably had other things he wanted to tell himself, and he also wanted to test if he mentioned the situation of those people in front of Meng Yilan.
It is really meaningless to think about him as the emperor. There are so few people around who can be trusted. Moreover, according to the current density of assassins, I don’t know if he can sleep peacefully while lying in bed.
“I’m leaving first.”
Meng Yilan stood up quickly, looking very happy and positive about Zhao Zhi’s departure.
Zhao Zhi glanced at Meng Yilan again.
After Zhao Zhi left, Meng Yilan took the place where Zhao Zhi was sitting and looked at Song Qi.
“Aren’t you staying here tonight?”
“Yeah.” Song Qi nodded, “Since the side has been cleaned up, I have no reason to stay here, and it’s not safe for you and me to go too close.”
Meng Yilan wanted to say it was all right.
“Aren’t we together every day? It doesn’t matter if we are together at night.” Song Qi stretched out his hand and rubbed Meng Yilan’s head.
Meng Yilan nodded, but even so, he still couldn’t be happy.
Song Qi stayed here all afternoon. Actually, he wanted to leave a long time ago, but every time he wanted to leave, Meng Yilan looked at herself with a pitiful look, making her unable to leave.
But before going to bed, she still walked forcibly.
Her palace is very deserted. Although there are a lot of people, it is still the original number, but she looks at the strange faces.
Song Qi still couldn’t help sighing.
No matter how many partings she has experienced, she still can’t get used to it.
The next day, Song Qi still woke up early in the morning, and did not go out this time, just practiced the sword for two hours in the yard.
“You go to Cheng Lai and tell her that you can come to the hot springs today.”
“Yes.” The maid went out neatly.
Song Qi took a shower again and changed clothes.
The lady of the court also happened to come back: “Niang Niang Cheng is sick, she said that she might not be able to come to the hot springs.”
Song Qi frowned and looked at the palace lady. It was clear that she was fine yesterday, and Yata’s body shouldn’t be so weak. How can I say that when I get sick, I will be sick: “Is it serious?”
“I don’t know, the servant girl didn’t see Empress Cheng.” The maid shook her head.
“My palace knows.” Song Qi was about to settle his breakfast quickly, and then went to take a look at Yata.
After she finished her breakfast, Yue Hong, who was beside Meng Yilan, came.
Also brought a box of pastries.
“The imperial concubine, the empress asks if you can go to her for lunch.”
“Thank you Empress Empress for me. I’m going to take a look at Yata and look for her in the afternoon.”
“Okay.” Yue Hong bowed to Song Qi, then turned and left.
Song Qi glanced at Yue Hong’s back, opened the food box, looked at the pastry inside, and closed the lid again.
She thought she was deserted enough here, but she didn’t expect Yata to be deserted.
When I walked in, I felt like I was in the cold palace.
After Yata arrived here, Zhao Zhi seemed to have never been to her side.
The court lady standing at the door was a little surprised to see Song Qi, and she bowed in a flustered manner.
“Where is your master?”
“Still resting.”
“My palace go in and have a look.”
“The imperial concubine, forget it if you get sick.” The court lady looked at Song Qi.
“No problem.” Song Qi passed the court lady directly and entered the house.
Yata leaned on the bed and was not resting. She was already awake, and when she saw Song Qi coming in, she smiled at her, “Isn’t it just not going to the hot spring? I will bother you to come here in person.”
She was about to get out of bed to ask for peace, but Song Qi pushed her back.
“Why are you suddenly sick?”
“I felt a little uncomfortable after I came back yesterday morning. I guess I’ve caught a cold.”
“Have you seen the doctor?”
Yata shook her head: “It’s okay, this kind of wind chill will be fine in a few days.”
Song Qi looked at Yata’s pale face, and glanced at the maid beside him: “Go and ask for an imperial doctor.”
“No, I don’t want to take medicine, it’s too bitter.” Yata frowned.
Song Qi ignored her, just glanced at the court lady again.
The imperial doctor came soon, and the diagnosis result was wind-cold, and it would be better after taking some medicine for a few days.
Yata looked helplessly at the medicine list: “I have said that, I don’t want to drink medicine.”
“Be careful, don’t mess around.” Song Qi looked at Yata, “You take a good rest, I will come to see you when I have time these days.”
“Farewell.” Yata shook her head. “I’ll get angry when I look at you. Don’t come over and make me feel uncomfortable.”
Song Qi stuffed Yata into the quilt, ignored her, turned and left the room.
Yata sighed while lying on the bed.
“Princess, why don’t you tell General Shao, I think she will help us.”
“According to her character, it will indeed help us.” Yata took a deep breath, “but she is not in a better situation than us now. Helping us will make it more difficult for her to do.”
“But, princess…”
“And, don’t you see how good her relationship with the queen is, do you think she will choose to trust us instead of the queen?” Yata twitched.
The maid also quieted down.
“That’s it. When I come here, I’ll have everything ready.” Yata turned over and turned her back to the maid, “Go out, I want to sleep.”
The maid sighed.
Song Qi left Yata’s side and went to Zhao Zhi.
She keenly noticed that there were twice as many guards around.
There are also more people in the study.
“Have you been assassinated recently?”
“No.” Zhao Zhi raised his head and glanced at Song Qi, “but who knows if they can’t beat you, they will turn their attention to me.”
Song Qi twitched the corner of his mouth, sat down in the chair, and glanced at Zhao Zhi.
Zhao Zhi glanced at the people in the room: “You go down first.”
“what’s up?”
Song Qi leaned on the chair and looked at Zhao Zhi, and knocked on the table: “I want to ask what plans you have for the two princes now.”
“What do you think can be planned based on our current situation.”
“If you didn’t let me enter the palace, your situation would be much better now.” Song Qi looked at Zhao Zhi.
“But this has happened, and there is no way to put you back.”
Song Qi twitched the corners of his mouth: “Recently their movements are so big, I suggest you start to prepare and arrange my people into the palace or a position close to the palace.”
“I have started to prepare.”
“I have been curious for a long time, but still want to ask a question, how many people can you trust now?”
Zhao Zhi glanced at Song Qi, but did not speak for a while.
“Is it so difficult to answer?” Song Qi shook his head, “If it can be successful this time, some big families can also be cleaned up.”
“I know, and the thing about Meng Yilan that you asked me to check last time…”
“Did you find out what?” Song Qi looked at Zhao Zhi.
Zhao Zhi did not speak, but took a copy from the drawer and threw it to Song Qi.
Song Qi took it and opened it and glanced at it. There was also a figure of the relationship between the characters drawn on it. It looked very complicated and there were many characters. She glanced at it and quickly sorted out the relationship between the characters.
“Sun Taifei?”
“Yeah.” Zhao Zhi said, leaning on the chair, “The queen’s mother was in the Sun family in Jiangnan when she was a child. Taifei Sun had stayed in Jiangnan for a while. She liked Mrs. Meng very much. If the queen didn’t marry me, she would marry Rui. king.”
