Xiao mubai's tone carried the decision of killing and cutting, announcing that he would not tolerate it.

"What the LORD said is not what the palace wants to do, but what you want to do. It's not that the palace wants the lives of the people in the city, but that you... Don't want them to live." Princess Li seemed to finish a mouthful of words in one breath. Her mouth was dry. She picked up a cup of tea with three fingers and was about to sip it gently.

With the sound of "pa", the white porcelain tea lamp in her hand was knocked over by Xiao mubai, fell to the ground and smashed. There were green tea powder on the ground, and the hot tea was still curling on the ground

The splashing tea stains fell on the left hand of concubine Li holding the white porcelain lamp, the red sleeves were splashed wet, and two or three drops of water were splashed on her gorgeous cheeks.

"If the palace is dead, the fortress will be full of ruins. If the palace is unhappy, someone must die for you." She stretched out her hand and picked up the drops of water on her cheeks. Her soft and charming voice was also cold and fierce.

At the moment of lifting his eyes, Ji Bai's hand fell with a knife, and a maid not far away fell to the ground. The sputtered blood sprinkled a piece of blooming peach blossom, which was pink and dark red, especially dazzling.

Xiao mubai took into account the lives of the young boys and servant girls in the hospital. He had to step back. In an instant, he regained his calm color. He lifted his robe and sat down opposite her: "madam, it takes so much trouble to have a purpose."

Imperial concubine Li picked up the white pear flowers she had just put aside and asked carelessly, "how are the two sons of Prince Hui?"

Xiao mubai was slightly stunned. He guessed what many kinds of imperial concubine Li would ask, but he never thought that the first sentence she asked was this.

Xiao mubai could not distinguish her expression when she looked down and picked flowers, and she didn't know whether she wanted the two people to live or die.

"To tell the truth, the palace is good to talk to the king and open the skylight." Seeing that he hesitated, Princess Li made a sound of alarm.

"Life is better than death." Xiao mubai thought about it and told the truth.

Gu Jiajun reported to Jingzhong that both of them were lying in bed in mianxi.

But he was not sure whether concubine Li knew it or not, and whether she was just testing his inquiry. Although it was secret, it was only because the two of them were in a miserable situation, which was not really a secret.

Therefore, Xiao mubai did not deceive her.

"Gu Duanfei is really muddy and can't help him up the wall." There was a trace of disgust in her tone, and then she said reluctantly, "the son of our palace is the same. He is a dour who can't stand it."

Xiao mubai's eyes fell on the maid who came to clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.

"In fact, the empress didn't have to help him. The king was so poisoned that he couldn't succeed to the throne. The seven younger brothers were always pure hearted and had few desires. Originally, he was the one who inherited the throne." Xiao mubai's eyes opened with a touch from the maid and moved to concubine Li.

There was no irony in his voice, as if he were just stating a fact: "it was you who pushed him down the road of kings."

Princess Li sniffed lightly and laughed with disdain: "the prince still wants to use this kind of words to kill the heart of the palace at this time? If it weren't for the palace, you were the emperor's crown prince since your birth. How could he have this opportunity to inherit the throne?"

Xiao Mu frowned. The king of Liang and the emperor had high hopes for him. From the mouth of imperial concubine Li, it seemed that it was the same. Imperial concubine Li clearly said

He raised his eyebrows and looked at imperial concubine Li: "the empress once said that the king's poison was caused by his father and Emperor. That's the case, why didn't the fourth brother have a chance?"

Princess Li sneered at the corner of her lips: "you don't have to excite the palace. You just want to know the truth of your poisoning."

Xiao mubai took the warm cup from the handmaid who ordered tea, spoonful by spoonful, and divided a cup of tea for imperial concubine Li: "but I hope your mother can solve her doubts."

I don't know if Xiao mubai's sudden softness satisfied imperial concubine Li. She took a sip of tea and looked at the maid who cooked tea: "your skill is good. I haven't seen you these days."

The maidservant bowed her eyebrows and collected her eyes respectfully. The standard of etiquette was comprehensive, and there was a trace of joy in her tone: "the fresh tea buds and leaves are slightly purple, and the young leaves roll back like bamboo shoot shells. It is very necessary to order tea skills, and the maidservant Xiao Yun can also do this craft. Lord Mo said that the maiden likes to drink Guzhu purple bamboo shoots most, and sent the maidservant to order tea to beg for a living for the family of mo."

Princess Li sniffed, "this MOGA has been so hard for so long that he is afraid of dying."

She sipped the tea again, showing satisfaction: "your tea cooking skill is really good. Raise your head and let the palace have a look."

Guzhu purple bamboo shoots are originally tribute tea. Few people can cook its original tea fragrance and flavor. Even Yansu is not good at it.

Therefore, imperial concubine Li has never drunk such authentic Guzhu purple bamboo shoots for a long time.

Just as concubine Li was waiting to see the maid Xiao Yun look up, Xiao mubai invited her with tea and called out again, "empress."

Concubine Li's eyes turned to his face and saw him look urgent. She smiled: "the poison was really fed to you by the emperor."

Princess Li put down her hand holding the lamp and compared it with the stone stool to a similar height: "that year, you were about three years old, staggering, babbling and jumping into his arms with joy. The emperor coaxed you in a warm voice and fed you the poison one by one."

In such a late spring morning, even the breeze is warm and warm. Xiao mubai listens to her eloquent words, her bone marrow is cold, and cold sweat gradually seeps out on her forehead and body, thin and like the tip of a needle.

Princess Li looked at his hand holding the lamp. Her knuckles turned white and smiled: "is it heartache? How hard the truth is to accept. Do you still want to know?"

Xiao Yun gently pressed Xiao mubai's wrist and added tea to his tea cup.

Xiao mubai involuntarily took back the tea cup with his fingers. The tea cup tilted slightly. The floating foam in it had not yet dissipated, and two or three points overflowed.

He looked at the beautiful imperial concubine with a fixed pair of Phoenix eyes: "what else does the king don't know?"

Princess Li raised the pear flower to her nose and sniffed the purple red anther. Her face was as bright as the moon, as if it could illuminate the spring in the whole garden behind her. Even the white pear flower in front of her nose could not take away half of the brilliance of her white as jade cheek.

"When you were four years old, the emperor was poisoned. When you were five years old, Zhao Lansheng eliminated the loss of fragrant jade to save the emperor." Princess Li's face showed a pleasant color of smelling the fragrance of flowers.

She gently twirled the pear flowers, then pulled out two petals, waved and said, "it's a pity that Hou ye and Zhao Lansheng were a pair of beautiful couples in Chang'an."
