Chapter 451: I Am the Queen 14
The Supreme Empress took a deep breath, eased her tone, and said:
"Your Majesty, I am doing this for your own good. I hope you will become a wise and benevolent queen."
Meng Li's expression was always calm.
There are so many things you can do for your own good.
It's for your own good that I don't move at all times, so you have to forgive my strength, my indiscriminate words, and my outspoken heart.
Because it is for your own good, you should thank me, and no matter what I do, you should be considerate and show your understanding.
"My mother's good intentions, I naturally know."
Meng Li was silent for a while, then said lightly.
"It's just that this matter is no small matter. Please give me some more time."
The Empress Dowager was already weak at the moment, and now she had a step to go down, so she followed.
She lowered her voice and said:
"I hope His Majesty must give an explanation to the subjects of the world."
Meng Li hummed, and said to the Supreme Empress:
"Mother, if there is nothing wrong, I will go back."
The Supreme Empress thought for a moment, and wondered if she had anything else to do.
It really reminded her of one thing, she said:
"Just now, that child Ningyun told me that she can't sleep well at night without the Liu family who served her since she was a child, and that people are not easy to use now."
Meng Li's face was calm, not surprised:
"Miss Liu didn't take care of his master with all his heart. If he took care of him wholeheartedly, this kind of thing could have been avoided. How do you think the empress should deal with it?"
The Supreme Empress pondered for a moment and said:
"If something serious happened to Ningyun, the Liu family should also exterminate the family. In the current situation, it should be punished."
"It's just that Ningyun seems to have a deep affection for her, and she shouldn't be too strict with the child, so as not to affect the heart, and for a slave, I'm afraid that the relationship between mother and daughter will be broken.
This is really difficult. "
Meng Li smiled:
"It's difficult, so let me handle the difficult things."
The Supreme Empress choked and had nothing to say.
Meng Li bid farewell to the Supreme Empress, and brought Zhang Ningyun back to the Huanghua Palace while leaving.
Zhang Ningyun didn't know if begging the empress was useful, but it was definitely more useful than begging her mother.
It's just that all the trusted people around her are in prison now, and she hasn't heard any gossip.
Zhang Ningyun felt a sense of sadness. As the empress dowager, she was actually in such a difficult situation in this huge palace.
Zhang Ningyun has no gossip, but Weixing Lin, as the master of the harem, although the current situation is not very good, but there are still people available.
He knew what the Supreme Empress meant, and couldn't help but feel extremely bitter.
I don't know if I can escape this catastrophe.
Some people in the harem took advantage of Queen Feng's misfortune and made faces in front of Meng Li, but Meng Li didn't show any good face.
That is to say, when You Guijun brought the second princess, Meng Li could give him a good face.
Did not go to anyone's palace.
Although Meng Li promised that this matter would be dealt with as soon as possible, under the circumstances of high attention from many parties, Meng Li still did not give everyone an answer.
It is useless for everyone to urge, no matter how much pressure is put on the queen, it is useless.
Even the Empress Dowager appeared to have no effect.
The Supreme Empress was also very helpless about this, but she didn't really want to change the current situation unless it was absolutely necessary.
Everyone feels that the current empress is a bit indifferent.
This makes everyone even more uncertain.
As for Zhang Ningyun, it wasn't that Zhengchou had no one available, Meng Li made Zhang Ningyun available.
Let her know a little news.
Regarding Liu's news, anyway, Liu's life in prison is not very good, although Liu is a servant in the eyes of the royal nobles.
But as the personal servant of the empress dowager, she is actually a high-ranking female official.
Usually the main job is to take care of the Empress Dowager, and she herself is served by someone.
Although it can't be regarded as pampered, but I haven't done any tiring work.
Meng Li felt that Zhang Ningyun hadn't been forced into a position. Since the Liu family and Zhang Ningyun were fighting together, it was also Zhang Ningyun's weakness, so don't blame her for making good use of it.
In prison, you have to eat idle food every day, and you can't create value for the palace.
Then go to work.
Meng Li arranged for the Liu family and others to go to work in the most tiring, dirtiest and cruelest part of the palace.
This is definitely a place no one wants to go to.
Because of Meng Li's release, Zhang Ningyun naturally also got the news.
She really panicked, and was very afraid that Mrs. Liu would die inside if she couldn't bear it.
She decided in her heart that the reason for asking the queen was to change her mouth, to prove the innocence of Queen Feng.
So I have been hesitant, but now I am forced to this point, and I have been thinking about the choice for a long time.
After letting Feng go, she was really not reconciled.
But……
I was struggling very much.
Seeing that Zhang Ningyun was reluctant to make a decision, Meng Li could only let someone 'accidentally' take Zhang Ningyun along, and 'accidentally' saw the haggard and tired Liu Shi.
This scene deeply hurt Zhang Ningyun's heart.
She is a kind and righteous person. If she abandons the people around her who are sincere to her, she will never be able to forgive herself in this life.
Empress Feng can find another chance to deal with them, but if Mrs. Liu and the others are dead, they are really dead and will not come back to life.
He also hated Meng Li from the bottom of his heart, and had never seen such a ruthless person.
A stupid and inhumane person.
After the Taifu taught her, Zhang Ningyun stayed behind. Seeing this, Meng Li shunned the palace people around him.
"My son..." Zhang Ningyun saluted.
At this time, it has been a month since Zhang Ningyun fell into the water, and Meng Lin said:
"Get up."
Zhang Ningyun said:
"Empress, there is something I want to report to Empress."
Meng Li raised his eyebrows:
"you say."
Zhang Ningyun said:
"That day, Erchen fell into the water by himself."
Zhang Ningyun thought that by saying this, Meng Li would follow down the steps, and then release Queen Feng, and Liu Shi and the others.
But there was nothing imaginable, and he didn't even hear Meng Li's reply.
Looking up, she saw that Meng Li didn't lift her eyes, as if she didn't hear, and continued to read the memorial, as if she didn't exist.
This made Zhang Ningyun angry and anxious.
Things that were once certain suddenly became uncertain.
This space is deathly silent, making Zhang Ningyun feel oppressed and suffocated.
No one spoke. After a long silence, Zhang Ningyun finally couldn't help it:
"Empress?"
Meng Li hummed lightly, indicating that he heard it.
Zhang Ningyun gritted her teeth, not as confident as before.
She gritted her teeth and said:
"Emperor Mother, it was Erchen who accidentally fell into the lake that day. It has nothing to do with Queen Feng. As for the details before, Erchen misremembered and misremembered."
Meng Li snorted, and picked up a pen to review a passage on the memorial.
Zhang Ningyun held her breath, waiting for Meng Li's response.
I never thought about it, I just got a casual sentence:
"Then what?"
Zhang Ningyun: ...
Then?
Shouldn't everyone be let go, and this matter just let go?
Didn't she want this?
Could it be that I guessed wrong? Fast travel mission: Cannon fodder to counterattack ()
