After listening to my voice, the villain became addicted to the plot

Cheng Jin looked calm on the surface, but actually he was breaking out in a nervous sweat.

She can't gamble this time.

What she did herself couldn't hurt Pei Yu and Jiang's mother and son.

Cheng Jin raised his head and smiled, stood in front of Pei Yu, and said to Qu Wanxin:

"Master Pei was invited to the palace by the emperor. It should be the emperor who decides whether to stay or go. Besides, it's already so late, so it wouldn't be appropriate to ask the Queen Mother or Master Pei to make a trip."

"Master Pei is in the capital. I believe the Queen Mother is not in a hurry. Why not let Master Pei go back today?"

Qu Wanxin chuckled.

"Of course it's different."

If she really waited for Cheng Jin tomorrow, no matter what she said, it would be an excuse. It would be better to catch it tonight and make Cheng Jin suffer a big mistake.

"The Queen Mother will arrive soon. Concubine Rong and Mr. Pei are asked to wait a little longer. After meeting with the Queen Mother, let the Queen Mother decide whether to stay or leave."

Cheng Jinxin said:

[If we really wait until Xu Jilin comes, it will be really doomed. 】

It is now the eighth day of the first lunar month. This year has not yet passed, and such a big thing has happened. Even if it is nothing, Xu Jilin will think of making a big deal out of it.

She had solid evidence and directly dragged Cheng Jin and Pei Yu out to be lynched. Xu Jilin would have an excuse even if they were asked.

Chu Chengye would ask about Cheng Jin every morning. Sometimes he would do it himself when he had free time, and sometimes he would ask Wei An to ask.

But there are still several hours before dawn. If Xu Jilin is really desperate to kill Cheng Jin and Pei Yu, they will not be able to wait for Chu Chengye to come to Chunhe Palace in the morning.

Cheng Jin could only try his best to delay time.

Qu Wanxin really moved Xu Jilin to take charge, so Cheng Jin could only place his hopes on Chu Chengye. There was no other possibility.

Cheng Jin looked at Qu Wanxin with an uncertain expression, but in fact he had been watching Xu Jilin's movements in the distance.

As Qu Wanxin expected, people came to Xu Jilin soon.

However, I don't know if Xu Jilin really had a headache and couldn't get out of bed. Late at night, Ju Xiang, the palace maid next to Xu Jilin, came to check on the situation.

Ju Xiang saw Cheng Jin and the other three standing opposite each other and bowed slightly.

"The Queen Mother has heard about the matter. Please ask Mr. Hui, Mr. Pei, and Concubine Rong to come with your servants."

"The Queen Mother invites you."

Juxiang said, making a "please" gesture.

It seemed like he didn't want to listen to anyone's excuses.

Can I go to a place like Shouan Palace?

That is the dragon's pond and the tiger's den.

Cheng Jin said: "I wonder why the Queen Mother asked us to go there late at night. It's already getting late, so why not wait until tomorrow?"

Ju Xiang said: "I dare not speculate on the Queen Mother's thoughts."

Cheng Jin continued: "If it's because of tonight's matter, then I bother you to tell the Queen Mother. It's really a misunderstanding. When daybreak, I will go to Shou'an Palace to explain to the Queen Mother. I'm not in a hurry."

You must not go to Shou'an Palace tonight.

As the queen mother, Xu Jilin naturally has the responsibility to be in charge of the harem. Cheng Jin can only be respectful in front of Xu Jilin. If Xu Jilin really insists on this matter, then she will be really in trouble.

As long as tonight passes, Chu Chengye will definitely know about this matter, and then Chu Chengye will have a way to protect them.

Juxiang's face did not change at all after hearing Cheng Jin's words.

"The Queen Mother makes her own decision. I am just a messenger. I would like to ask the Queen Mother not to embarrass my servant."

Juxiang's words choked Cheng Jin to death.

Qu Wanxin was watching the fun on the side. What she saw now was that Cheng Jin had a guilty conscience. Now she was even more sure that what Cheng Jin had argued with her before was indeed a tough talk.

She must have an affair with Pei Yu.

Qu Wanxin was secretly happy, and she said something to provoke Cheng Jin:

"The Queen Mother just asked us to go and have a look, and she didn't say what was going on. Why is Concubine Rong so anxious to stop it?"

"Even if nothing happens, as concubines, we have the responsibility to serve at our side when we hear that the Queen Mother is ill."

"Master Pei is devoted to the emperor in the court. He must know that the Queen Mother is ill and won't say anything, right?"

Qu Wanxin looked in the direction of Pei Yu intentionally.

Pei Yu nodded and said calmly: "That's natural."

Ju Xiang was pressing hard, and Cheng Jin had no way to escape, so he had to go to Shou'an Palace to see Xu Jilin.

Along the way, Cheng Jin probably walked very slowly, trying to delay time.

Juxiang and Qu Wanxin walked in front, waiting for Cheng Jin countless times along the way.

Qu Wanxin couldn't bear it anymore, so she turned back to Cheng Jin and said, "Concubine Rong's feet are not feeling well? Why is she walking so slowly? Is it possible that there are still people walking around?"

Cheng Jin didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"It's true, let's pass it on."

Cheng Jin followed Qu Wanxin's words and fortunately stayed where he was.

Qu Wanxin: "..."

Qu Wanxin walked up to Cheng Jin and said with deep meaning: "Concubine Rong, please stop doing such useless work. You must go to Shou'an Palace tonight, and you must go to see the Queen Mother."

"Concubine Rong, if you are thinking of stalling for time, don't be too guilty to go."

Cheng Jin curled his lips indifferently and looked away.

"How could it be? I am thinking about Empress Taifei in my heart. I am so anxious that I can't wait to go directly to Shou'an Palace."

"But it's true that I feel uncomfortable on my feet. I think the Queen Mother will understand if you walk slower."

Qu Wanxin said sarcastically: "When did Concubine Rong become so delicate? This place is only a few steps away from Shou'an Palace?"

Cheng Jin followed Qu Wanxin's words and said: "You can't blame me for being coquettish. It's really because the emperor loves me too much. The emperor will arrange a chariot for me wherever I go. I have long been used to it. "

"How about going to the emperor to send a chariot?"

Qu Wanxin said: "Concubine Rong said earlier that it was getting late. How could Concubine Rong think of disturbing the emperor now? At this time, the emperor has probably rested for a long time, so it is best not to disturb him."

【not good at all. 】

[You have a good idea. You and Xu Jilin are working together to punish me, and you still want me to follow you obediently? 】

[There are no doors, no, no cracks! 】

"The emperor told me that he would not bother me whenever I wanted to see him. Now, I want to see the emperor."

Qu Wanxin really didn't have the patience to bother with Cheng Jin here.

If Cheng Jin really delayed it until Chu Chengye came, the matter has not yet been finalized, and Cheng Jin will still have a chance to defend himself.

As long as you get to Shou'an Palace and let Xu Jilin punish Cheng Jin, then Cheng Jin can be pried open no matter how hard he talks.

Qu Wanxin gritted her teeth and said, "It's really inappropriate for the Emperor to disturb the Emperor now. Why don't Concubine Rong go to Shou'an Palace first, and wait until she meets the Queen Mother to invite the Emperor."

"It will be a good time for me to listen to Concubine Rong's explanation."
