Chapter 143： (1)

Mu Chi was beaten, so although the whipping was painful, it didn't make him lose consciousness. As a result, he was branded with an iron block, and he fainted immediately.

It took him two days to wake up faintly, opening his eyes and looking into the familiar house.

He lay there blankly for a while, his whole body hurts, and his chest hurts even more. Mu Chi was dull for a while, then suddenly remembered something, and in spite of the physical pain, he bowed his head and pulled off his front breasts. There was white plaster and bandages on his chest. Mu Chi opened the bandage, and sure enough, a Jiang character was on his chest, exuding a black and red color.

Not knowing what happened, Mu Chi's heart jumped for joy, as if there was some connection between him and Jiang Shining.

He was in a daze when another fellow Shadow Guard came in, and when he saw his appearance, he suddenly frowned.

"Much, you are a waste of ointment, that is a good ointment given by the empress."

Muchi let the man put a bandage on him. He saw that the other party raised his head and his arms were a little inconvenient, and he suddenly realized something.

"You also…?"

"All the shadow guards in the inner courtyard have been given." The shadow guard said, "I feel at ease now. Mr. Wu Yin is afraid of being driven away. Where can I find such a good master?"

Mu Chi became a little frustrated, for a moment he thought he was unique. But calm down and think about it again. Jiang Shining does things delicately. It is safest for her to give seals to everyone. If only one is given to him, it seems too deliberate.

Mu Chi vaguely realized that he was causing trouble for Concubine Xiao again. Although this incident was a natural disaster for him, he still felt a little guilty. He would go to class with Yinghong the next afternoon to see Jiang Shining. .

Yinghong watched him hesitate to speak, but finally helped him.

Mu Chi and Ying Hong went into the house alternately to hide. He saw Jiang Shining standing at the table practicing calligraphy, and no one else was around. He pursed the corner of his mouth, then appeared in front of her.

As soon as Jiang Shining raised her head, she saw a familiar black figure kneeling in front of her, Jiang Shining's temple was aching slightly.

"Get up and talk."

Mu Chi stood up, and he felt Jiang Shining's eyes slide down his face to his chest, where the mark was. Not knowing why, Mu Chi was a little bit ashamed. But soon the throbbing disappeared, because he felt Jiang Shining frown, as if seeing something annoying.

He suddenly remembered Yinghong and said that she didn't like giving seals.

Mu Chi's heart sank to the bottom. Before he could admit his mistake, Jiang Shining said coldly, "Why did you go back to the Shadow Guard Pavilion without authorization?"

Jiang Shining had never spoken to him in such a cold tone, and Mu Chi lowered his head and was speechless.

"... Subordinates, they are afraid of causing trouble to the Niang Niang, so they want to ask if they can be transferred elsewhere..." Mu Chi whispered.

He really couldn't tell his sincerity. If you like it, you will be disgusted.

"Naughty!" The brush in Jiang Shining's hand was thrown onto the rice paper, and the originally well-written "Quiet Quiet" was destroyed by ink.

When she saw that Mu Chi was about to bend down again, she stretched out her finger to him, and said furiously, "You kneel again, and if you kneel again, I will hit you!"

Mu Chi's movements froze, his expression lost in confusion.

Jiang Shining was quickly killed by this popularity. He behaved so honestly that he turned his head and caused trouble. After getting things done, she looked innocent, pitiful and confused, and she was dizzy with anger.

This is not over yet. The shadow guard, who was completely unaware of words and expressions, was confused for a moment, and according to what she said as a problem-solving thinking, he drew a soft whip from his waist and handed it to her. Jiang Shining vomited blood with anger, and almost didn't stretch his quiet burden as a concubine Xiao.

"Don't show up in front of me until you get better!"

In the end, Jiang Shining drove the people away rudely, out of sight and out of mind. She found Yinghong again and asked her to open the back door for Mu Chi.

Mu Chi could only return to the state of being in a daze and looking at the sky in the past. And he found that the ointment he had applied had been changed. Everyone else used the extremely expensive ointment for the empress, which was rewarded by Concubine Xiao, which turned out to be the same. As a result, Jiang Shining became angry and replaced him with an ordinary one.

"Why did you offend Niang Niang, she just gave you the most common ones?" Someone asked strangely.

Mu Chi: "..."

He suddenly remembered Jiang Shining's last sentence. Don't show up in front of her until he is well. This is obviously because he doesn't want to see him, so let him slow down.

Muchi didn't know what to say, and he would never see her for the rest of his life. But she had a very childish feeling when she used this way of anger.

In fact, the shadow guards are not so gold and expensive, and it is normal to have injuries all the year round. But on the next night, his ointment was changed back to the best. Jiang Shining still couldn't bear to torture him more.

After a few weeks, Mu Chi's injury was almost healed. He has been honestly not showing up for this period of time, and now his injury is almost healed, and he is a bit hesitant to inform Jiang Shining.

Tangled, Mu Chi chose to show up all afternoon.

Jiang Shining sighed softly when he saw him.

"Healed?"

Muchi nodded honestly.

"Who can prove that you are fine?" Jiang Shining raised her eyebrows and said almost unreasonably, "how do I know if you are lying."

Mu Chi was stunned, he didn't know how to prove it. I can't undress in front of her.

Jiang Shining wanted to bully people looking at him like this, but couldn't do too much. Looking at Mu Chi's helplessness, he felt better.

Jiang Shining beckoned him to come over, "Can you write?"

Mu Chi nodded, Jiang Shining gave him a brush, and he carefully wrote his name, Mu Chi.

The shadow guards can write and read, but the quality is not good. Jiang Shining wrote next to his crooked words: Mu Chi. It is very beautiful.

"Go back to practice calligraphy." Jiang Shining said, "make good changes to your dog-climbing calligraphy."

"I'm a shadow guard, why do I need to practice calligraphy?" Mu Chi said confusedly.

Jiang Shining snorted. In fact, she wanted to find a way to get along with him. Who made his mind so right. But it's hard to say that, so he said in a high-sounding voice, "Practicing calligraphy is also a way of self-cultivation, and there is nothing wrong with managing your temper."

Mu Chi thought for a while, "Then you should let His Royal Highness Jing Yuan practice calligraphy more."

Jiang Shining smiled without being stretched, and then became serious again, waving his hand to let Mu Chi go.

"Just practice your name, I will check it next time."

The two of them just said a few words every few days, but they unknowingly became Jiang Shining's only adjustment in this world. She has masks and pressure when facing everyone, only Mu Chi, who has never appeared in the book, can make her feel a little more relaxed.

In the winter of Runhe forty-four years, with the frontline Gaojie, Gu Lai was promoted to concubine, and he was on the same level as Jiang Shining. The power of the harem is divided again, and the form becomes more and more complicated. Gradually, the concubine Wang Gui, who once punished Guijiang Shining a few years ago, gradually lost her Sacred Heart because she was framed, and the situation became the separation of powers of the Queen, Concubine Xiao, and Concubine Gu.

Jiang Shining and the two of them have been rubbing constantly. She has been upgraded very quickly in recent years, but she has been stuck in the concubine for several years. However, Gu Fei has been very spoiled in the past two years. This makes other concubines who have taken refuge in Jiang Shining murmured in their hearts, fearing that she would be killed by Concubine Gu. Standing in the wrong team.

In the spring of Runhe forty-five years, Concubine Gu gave birth to a son and immediately became a celebrity in the palace.

Everyone knew that Concubine Gu and Concubine Xiao had a bad relationship, and they were all watching. Some people felt that Jiang Shining would be dismissed by Concubine Gu within a year. Concubine Gu was also from a very good family and couldn't sink her heart. Just as she soared, she couldn't wait to point her finger at Jiang Shining, wanting to show her shame.

In order to frame Jiang Shining to death at one time, Concubine Gu conspired for a long time, even not hesitating to join forces with the queen. He was going to put Jiang Shining's charge of framing her with jealousy on Jiang Shining, so that the emperor had to kill her because of the complete evidence.

Concubine Gu's child is full moon, take this opportunity to open a banquet and invite all the concubines in the palace to attend. She intends to push the prepared false accusation on Jiang Shining in front of everyone. Jiang Shining definitely couldn't find evidence to prove her innocence for a while, when all the concubines condemned her together, and raised the atmosphere, the queen would come out again to call the shots and directly order her to take her down.

If Jiang Shining is controlled, she won't be able to turn around no matter how smart she is. When the emperor arrives and the evidence is solid, Jiang Shining will not escape death.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shining had expected this to be a Hongmen Banquet. She knew that Concubine Gu was going to frame her, and had already prepared a countermeasure. But on the surface she was still attending the appointment as usual, but she asked another emperor.

So, when Concubine Gu was clamoring to let the queen be the master, Chu Hao Li suddenly arrived. This incident made Concubine Gu and the Queen a little surprised, and Concubine Gu was a bit messed up, but smoothly said Jiang Shining was going to murder her.

Jiang Shining took out personal and material evidence in front of everyone, and questioned Gu Fei speechlessly. Seeing the change in form, the queen immediately turned around and accused Concubine Gu.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Gu also kept a hand. The things Jiang Shining gave to the banquet were exchanged. Gu Fei used this to insist that Jiang Shining had a bad heart, even if she had "misunderstood" Jiang Shining, but at least this matter was true.

Chu Hao was terribly annoyed, and Gu Fei was proud of her family background. He was a little annoyed at first, but he could only endure it all the time. In his heart, he was inclined to Jiang Shining, who never caused trouble, let alone framed people when they gave gifts to a large audience.

However, the front line still depends on Gu Fei's father and elder brother. Gu Fei has just given birth to a dragon, and Chu Hao Li can't say anything. He wanted to quell the matter, and Concubine Gu was reluctant.

Jiang Shining had no way to prove that the gift was dropped. Chu Hao made a big deal and made her apologize to Gu Fei.

However, Jiang Shining is impossible to recognize. On the surface, it looks like she, Concubine Gu, and the queen are arguing with each other, but in fact it is also a contest between the various forces. So many people in the palace watched, Jiang Shining had now let go, and the people in his camp would be upset. They were afraid of Concubine Gu's background. If Jiang Shining was dismissed by her, the road ahead would be very difficult.

Furthermore, if she admits it, the thing that framed Concubine Gu will become true.

Jiang Shining naturally refused to apologize.

Chu Hao's face was a bit unbearable. He felt that he trusted Jiang Shining so much that he hadn't poisoned him, and only let her verbally apologize to end this matter, and he was already very towards her. How could she be so ignorant and not let him down the steps?

"Jiang Shining, I'll give you another chance to apologize to Gu Bi!" Chu Hao sat on the upright position and said coldly.

Jiang Shining knelt on the ground, she raised her head and laughed mockingly.

"I'm not wrong, why should I admit it?" She said, "I have never done anything to steal the dog since Jiang Shining has been in the palace for so many years. Besides, I was framed. Why am I wrong?"

"The emperor, look at her." Gu Fei said aggrieved immediately.

Chu Hao couldn't get off the stage, so he suddenly turned back and laughed.

"Okay, okay." He said, "Xiao Fei is sturdy. You can choose, or you can kneel down and reflect on Gu Fei's palace alone, let everyone see you, or you will admit your mistakes and apologize! "

"Sister, you can just be soft." The queen was also talking next to him, "After all, you are not right first. What's the use of being hard?"

It seemed that they forced her to recognize the sewage.

Jiang Shining smiled softly, she glanced at Chu Hao sharply, and then leaned down.

"The concubine chooses the first one."

Under everyone's gaze, Jiang Shining came to the palace road and knelt straight down. Su Ye was so anxious that she always begged the emperor. Chu Haoli followed her out, watching her kneel down and lowering her eyelashes, no longer looking at him.

She obviously has a soft and weak body, but why is her temper so stubborn?

Chu Hao let out a cold snort and flicked his sleeves away.

The banquet broke up unhappily, and the concubines, large and small, dispersed, constantly peeking at Jiang Shining, and some people snickered.

They all felt that Xiao Fei's shame was small this time, and it was true that she fell out of favor.

Concubine Gu achieved the final victory. She stood in front of Jiang Shining and looked at the sky pretendingly.

"Oh, it's a bit cloudy looking at this day. My sister is afraid of the cold, so I won't accompany my sister for now."

She originally wanted to leave triumphantly, but she heard Jiang Shining grin. Concubine Gu turned her head and saw that although Concubine Xiao was kneeling, she still had the expression of coldness and estrangement in the past, as if she didn't care about anything.

Concubine Gu was a little angry for an instant. She gritted her teeth and said, "I really don't know where the arrogance comes from you. Have you not recognized the facts? Now the emperor loves me more, you are over."

Hearing this, Jiang Shining's smile grew stronger.

"Gu Fei, when you think the emperor loves you, you are not far from losing power." She said lazily, "Does the emperor love you or respect your family background, don't you know how to tell?"

"You!" Concubine Gu was said to be the central issue, and she gritted her teeth, "That's better than your little daughter of the county magistrate! When my father and brother come home with a victory, wouldn't it be easy for me to take your life? ."

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it." Jiang Shining said, "I can say everything well, so you can do it for yourself."

Concubine Gu was only a dead duck when Jiang Shining had a hard mouth. She gave Jiang Shining a cold look, twisted into her palace, and had the door shut directly.

The sky is cloudy, and the road under the high wall looks extremely quiet.

Jiang Shining is very calm. In fact, for her, survival and mission success are the most important. Under this, she can put aside everything, including dignity, as long as she can win the final victory. This desperate determination is quite similar to Jing Yuan's.

So if the situation requires, Jiang Shining can confess her mistake and apologize to Concubine Gu. But she knew it was useless to obey the emperor all the time. Men are such cheap bones, the more you make him worry, the more he will never forget. The emperor had too many obedient women, and there was no one who would make him stumble.

Su Ye didn't know what Jiang Shining was thinking, she almost shed tears from distress on the side. Jiang Shining sighed slightly. She said, "Su Ye, you go back first."

"Manny, how could the slave and maid let you be here alone?" Su Ye's tears fell instantly.

"The emperor told me to let me reflect on it alone." Jiang Shining said, "you will be asked to deal with me if you are here."

No way, Su Ye almost left in tears.

As a result, Jiang Shining was the only one left on the silent palace road.

She raised her head and stared at the cold sky, somehow thinking of Mu Chilai. She hooked her mouth.

Jiang Shining's body in this world is extremely weak. Although she was only the daughter of a prefect, the original body was also raised as a lady. There was no opportunity for modern women to exercise. She was originally weak, and she was raised in the palace.

Later, when he was born in Jingxuan, his vitality was hurt, and his spirit was a little worse.

Thinking of it, this is not the first time. When Wang Guifei was still a princess a few years ago, Jiang Shining was even lower in rank and was punished to kneel once when she was not pleasing to her eyes. Later, it was discovered that her body really became the life of the young lady, and it must be maintained at all times, and she would get sick even if she was exposed to cold and rain.

Jiang Shining didn't like this weak feeling. But there is nothing to fault with the task.

She calculated in her heart that it is already cold in spring now, and the air-conditioning is coming in from her knees, and she will definitely get sick. If it rains, you will get a serious illness. Chu Haoli has feelings for her, perhaps also love, but this kind of love is far inferior to his love for himself and the throne.

Maybe we can make a fuss about the serious illness.

Jiang Shining's thinking was so calm and ruthless, he even used everything he had as a **** to advance the task.

While she was thinking, the sky was muffled and thunderous, and heavy rain began to patter.

Jiang Shining's knees were already cold and cold, and her body was suddenly cold after the heavy rain. The biting cold made her a little unbearable, and she soon became numb.

She wondered in a daze, in such a world, would she have to survive five more before she could get a real chance to live again?

…

The heavy rain is getting bigger and bigger, and for a while, the whole world is left with the sound of majestic rain, and even the court ladies and eunuchs are looking for a place to shelter from the rain.

Mu Chi stood in a corner of the shadow, and the heavy rain instantly wetted his clothes, making him feel nothing. He stared at the weak figure in the distance, couldn't help making fists with both hands, and his fingertips turned white with force.

On the other side, Chu Haoli was originally writing memorials in the house, while the **** next to him was pouring water.

The rain was getting bigger and bigger, and Chu Hao's stern expression was obviously distracted. He frowned and patted the pen on the table, staring coldly out the window.

The Great Supervisor said suddenly, "Your Majesty, with such a heavy rain, Empress Xiaofei is weak, I'm afraid I can't bear it."

"Who makes her ignorant?" Chu Hao said coldly. "She is so icy and smart, how could she not understand the situation in the previous dynasty and have to fight hard with Concubine Gu."

The chief **** was not good at saying anything, so he could only smile happily and put down the teapot.

Mian Lei roared in the clouds. After Chu Hao severely approved a few memorials, he lost his patience and threw everything on the table out of his head.

He paced back and forth in the study, not getting angry, but there was nowhere to vent.

"Why do you think she has such an ass-tempered temper? Can't she be soft once?" Chu Hao said sharply. He turned around, listening to the sound of rain falling outside, becoming even more irritable. Then he said, "Is anyone in Xiaofei's palace come to intercede?"

"This... doesn't seem to be there," the **** said cautiously.

"A bunch of waste!" Chu Hao smashed the teapot to the ground.

The chief **** knelt down to pack things, and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, or would you let Concubine Xiao go back? She has suffered a lot, and she will definitely reflect on it."

"Let her go for no reason, where should I put my face?" Chu Hao said violently.

In the Imperial Study Room, Chu Haoli still couldn't let go of his face.

In the rain, the weak Jiang Shining, no matter how firm the spirit, can't bear the fragile body that has reached its limit.

She gradually lost consciousness and fainted.

When Jiang Shining's body fell, it did not fall on the cold ground.

Mu Chi caught her body.

In the rain and fog, Mu Chi looked down at Jiang Shining's pale face. He picked her up and hurried towards the palace.

The Shadow Guard had light work, and Mu Chi hurried back soon, hitting Su Ye who was holding an umbrella and rushing out. Su Ye was stunned when he saw him holding Jiang Shining, and suddenly reacted, took Jiang Shining on his back, and ran towards the palace.

Only then did Mu Chi stop. He walked back slowly in the heavy rain, instead of going to the front door, but leaning in from where the silhouette guard entered and exited.

The entire palace became full of enthusiasm because of Jiang Shining's return, and everyone was busy alone for her.

Mu Chi quietly returned to the side yard where the servant lived, just in time for Yinghong. Yinghong was stunned when he saw his drenched appearance.

"Brother..."

"I may not survive tomorrow." Mu Chi said calmly. "I just brought Niang Niang back. I don't know if anyone was seen on the road."

"What did you say?" Yinghong was stunned, she murmured, "You, you unexpectedly?"

"If someone comes to blame, push everything on me." Mu Chi said.

He walked sideways by Yinghong, entered his house, Yinghong followed him in anxiously.

"You have always taught me not to be reckless, why do you do it?" She said, "If you are not married to each other, if you come back with your mother, if someone knows—"

Mu Chi stopped abruptly, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"I can't watch her there," he said hoarsely. "Fine, just do it, so be it."

"Senior Brother, you are confused!" Ying Hong gritted his teeth helplessly, "You should come back to inform people instead of calling the shots without authorization..."

At this moment, Su Ye opened the door and walked in. Mu Chi took two steps towards her and said hurriedly, "How good is your mother?"

Su Ye's face shook heavily.

"The mother has a fever, she is unconscious at the moment."

Mu Chi's face suddenly paled for two minutes, and Su Ye looked at him.

"Much, you have to remember, it was me who came back with my mother!" Su Ye said solemnly, "Don't say anything wrong."

"But…"

The emperor asked Xiaofei to kneel until tomorrow, no matter who took her away, it was a violation of the emperor's order, and if it was serious, she would be decapitated.

Mu Chi was hesitating, and Su Ye waved his hand.

"Okay, if you let the emperor know that it is you, you will definitely die." Su Ye frowned, "I am the maid of the empress, your majesty will not be a real killer. You just remember that this matter has nothing to do with you, just do it. ."

"What's okay?" Just then, another person outside the door said.

Everyone was shocked, and Mu Chi was even ready to die. But Su Ye breathed a sigh of relief again.

"Master Zhang Qingning, you startled me."

Zhang Qingning obviously heard her. His eyes swept towards Mu Chi ill-informed, and his eyes squinted.

"You are so courageous." Zhang Qingning said coldly, "It doesn't matter if you are dead, if it drags down your mother's reputation and humiliation, you will not be enough to apologize with death."

"My lord." Su Ye stepped forward and smiled, "Look at this matter..."

Zhang Qingning withdrew his gaze now, and he snorted coldly.

"Don't want me to conceal with you, I will truthfully report to His Royal Highness Jingyuan." He said. He looked at Su Ye again, "Aunt Su Ye, have you ever thought about this if you were seen when you came back with the empress? Killing him was enough to solve the problem. Your Majesty may be reluctant to move the empress. You cover up, On the contrary, there is no silver three hundred taels here."

"What should I do, sir?" Su Ye said helplessly, "Can't we recruit them all by ourselves before they can find them?"

Zhang Qingning frowned, "You asked the emperor to tell the emperor that she was in a coma and was brought back by her subordinates. Now she is unconscious and dying of her life, so she can no longer instigate her personally. As for whether the subordinates are male or female, let's not mention this first. Matter. No one asks, don’t talk about it, if someone sees it—"

He glanced at Mu Chi and said coldly, "You know what you are going to do."

"I understand." Mu Chi lowered his head and clasped his fists.

Zhang Qingning gave a cold snort and pushed the door to leave.

Su Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly sent a confidant **** to report to the emperor, and told him to cry as badly as possible, so that his majesty missed his wife's body more.

She sent someone here and went to personally pick up the imperial doctor. This imperial doctor is considered Xiaofei's person. She came to diagnose and said that although the empress is in very poor condition, she was fortunately taken away in time. Her body is too weak, no matter how much she kneels in the rain, the damage to her body will be indelible.

Su Ye again signaled the imperial doctor to speak a little bit miserably in front of the emperor, and the imperial doctor expressed his understanding. After sending him away, Su Ye watched people make medicine again. After busying for a while, she went back to the court, wanting to see what Mu Chi was doing, and said a few more words.

As a result, I saw Mu Chi standing in the rain in the backyard, waiting quietly, like a straight pine tree.

"Much, why are you here?"

Mu Chi turned his head and said lightly, "Auntie, I have something to ask next."

…

When Jing Yuan in the Prince's Mansion got news from Zhang Qingning, everything was settled. He hurriedly went to see Jiang Shining, and saw that the woman was unconscious on the couch, her lips were pale, but her cheeks were abnormally red.

Jing Yuan stepped back two steps, raging anger in his chest.

He missed the Emperor Hand Blade and Concubine Gu, and all the concubines related to this matter. But Jing Yuan was now much more mature and calmer than before, so he didn't rush out like the last time.

The hostility on his face made Zhang Qingning sweat again and again, and kept whispering comfort, as if Jing Yuan hadn't heard it.

Jing Yuan only felt that he was powerless, he thought he had many connections, and how many families he had won. But in fact, just like when he was young, he was unable to protect Jiang Shining at all.

He hates. I hate Chu Hao for being violent, and also hate my own powerlessness.

Jing Yuan walked out of the palace in a daze, but saw a black figure kneeling far away in the rain.

"He is the shadow guard?" Jing Yuan squeezed this sentence from the root of his teeth.

Zhang Qingning saw it, and suddenly had a headache. Why is this shadow guard's elm head so obstructing Jingyuan's eyes? The other servants wanted to keep him, but if he didn't die in the hands of the emperor, there was a high chance that he would be killed by Jing Yuan.

Jing Yuan has always been cruel and cruel, he won't let anyone handle it to live.

He walked into the rain angrily, and Zhang Qingning quickly opened his umbrella to follow.

Chu Jingyuan came to Mu Chi. The man was like a rock, kneeling there motionless, letting the rain soak his cold body, and letting Jing Yuan glared at him at will.

Mu Chi was very calm.

He remained silent about all Jing Yuan's words until the angry prince said, "You should be executed."

Mu Chi finally moved, he neatly presented his sharp sword, his expression still calm.

At this moment, Mu Chi had the same thoughts as Jing Yuan. He is the handle and the loophole. As long as you kill him, no one can say that Jiang Shining made a typo.

But no one can kill him, only Jing Yuan.

Therefore, Mu Chi presented the sword.

Jing Yuan was furious in an instant. He regarded this as Mu Chi's provocation, and immediately drew his sword to cut people. Zhang Qingning, who was trying to stop it, was almost unable to resist it.

"Seven brothers!"

At this moment, Jing Xuan finally arrived. When he saw this scene, he immediately ran over and stood in front of Mu Chi.

"Jing Xuan, let me go!" Jing Yuan said angrily, "I want to kill this shadow guard!"

"Seven brother, you can't kill him, he is the mother's concubine!" Jing Xuan tried his best to dissuade him. "The imperial doctor has said that if the mother concubine is later, the concubine will become more ill. This shadow guard saved him with a death bet. Mother concubine, if you kill him, won't people's hearts be chilled? The next time this situation reappears, will anyone dare to save the mother concubine?"

Jing Xuan persuaded him to finally let go of his murderous intentions. He threw down Mu Chi's sword, but still looked at Mu Chi's dead face and kicked it up.

Although he used a lot of force, but the dark guard should be able to bear it. Unexpectedly, Mu Chi was kicked down by him, and he no longer had the strength to get up. Prone to be unable to get up in the rain. I saw traces of blood soaking through Mu Chi's clothes, spinning around in the rain. Jing Yuan, Jing Xuan, and Zhang Qingning were all stunned.

"Where did you get hurt?" Jing Xuan frowned.

Mu Chi panted lightly, and after a long time, he lifted himself up and lowered his eyelashes.

"The villain commits a crime, with two hundred whips." He whispered indifferently, "It's more credible to kill again like this."

"You—" Even Jing Yuan, who was originally angry, was speechless for a while, he naturally felt the shadow guard's loyalty, how could he be able to do it anymore. He flicked his sleeves, grunted and turned away.

Jing Xuan and his **** were left, Jing Xuan bent down to help Mu Chi, but Mu Chi was already unable to get up, Jing Xuan turned his head and frowned, "People will take him back to take medicine to rest."

When Mu Chi heard this, he immediately grabbed Jing Xuan's sleeve and slid down weakly.

"Or... it's safer to kill the villain..." He was about to lose consciousness, still muttering in a low voice.

"It's not a last resort, it doesn't have to be this way." Jing Xuan whispered, "This matter is beyond your control. Go back and heal your injuries. The rest can only be determined by the destiny."

<<<

Jiang Shining was in a coma for three days and three nights.

She was originally physically weak, internalized and externally ill, suddenly worsened, and the human breath weakened day by day.

Only then did Chu Haoli regret that, every day he came to Jiang Shining's palace and turned around in a hurry. He rebuked the queen for helping Gu Concubine to do evil regardless of black and white, and made Gu Concubine think behind closed doors, and he couldn't save Jiang Shining, who was getting weaker and weaker.

Until the doctor told him tremblingly that if Jiang Shining didn't wake up, he might really die. Chu Haoli felt like he had been drained of all his anger, and sat motionless in his chair.

On the fourth night, Jiang Shining opened his eyes and returned to the administration.

The robot came to her and said without emotion, "Samsara Book-piercer No. 154800, according to the system identification, finally judged that your mission failed. The reason for the failure: physical death. As a punishment, immediately take back your soul."

"No, no—" Jiang Shining stretched out her hand and clutched the robot's shoulder tightly. She gritted her teeth and said, "I want to live, give me a chance!"

"Sorry, your mission has failed."

"I didn't." Jiang Shining said very quickly, "I'm still here, it means that the body is not dead. I can survive it, you have to believe me! As long as you pass this level, I promise you will never again. There are powerful enemies that can deal with me!"

The robot's brain retrieves data. It saw that at the same time, the imperial doctor told the emperor Chu Hao that Concubine Li Xiao might not be able to survive today, and Chu Hao was so desperate that she actually shed tears. He was still begging in front of Xiaofei's bed, as long as she survived, he would follow her in everything.

The robot's judgment was over, and it looked at Jiang Shining again.

"Judgment result: Continue the task." It said, "Please seize your opportunity."

Jiang Shining breathed a sigh of relief. She let go of the robot and fell into the darkness again.

When she opened her eyes again, she only felt that her whole body was sore and weak, and her brain was dizzy. Su Ye, who was guarding the side, saw for the first time that the thing in her hand fell to the ground, crying out and calling the royal doctor.

Jiang Shining was seriously ill, but she also got a blessing in disguise as she expected. Chu Hao Li was overjoyed and came to accompany her every day, and he packed up a ticket for Jiang Shining to say his wish, and he would surely be able to do it.

Jiang Shining smiled desolately, and said faintly, "What can be useful? In the end, it is not bullied and no one has sheltered."

This sentence immediately disturbed Chu Hao and Li's conscience, and he promised that Jiang Shining would give her a noble concubine as long as he recovered from the illness. He even revealed to her that he would start to rectify Concubine Gu's family, and as long as her family fell, Jiang Shining would be fair.

Jiang Shining calmly calculated that when Concubine Gu fell, she and the queen would be the only ones left in the harem. The most difficult time has passed, and victory is in sight.

What Chu Haoli wanted to kill was not just a family, but the whole faction of Concubine Gu's father and brother, so after the first month, he was very busy and it was difficult to come and see Jiang Shining. Jiang Shining is happy to take time off. She is already recovering from illness, and she is very tired when she comes to acting. It is better to stay in bed alone.

After this incident, the concubines in the harem understood how favored Concubine Xiao was, and immediately came over to win the relationship.

A month and a half later, Jiang Shining was still ill, but she had some energy, so Su Ye told her what had happened before.

When he heard Mu Chi hugged her back, Jiang Shining's heart was agitated. Hearing that he was looking for Yinghong and pumping two hundred whips, Jiang Shining almost didn't come up with a sigh of relief. She asked Su Ye to find Mu Chi.

Not seen for more than a month, Mu Chi is still the same as before, taciturn, like a pine tree standing upright.

Jiang Shining was lying on the bed, looking at him up and down, suddenly feeling dissatisfied.

"Why are you so good, and I'm still so weak?"

Mu Chi lowered his head and said nothing, Jiang Shining felt bored, so he used the melon seeds by his bed to throw him away.

She laughed while throwing it away, "Do you know who I thought of when I was punished to kneel? I thought of you. You would rather die than surrender, and I am the same, what a funny coincidence."

Mu Chi was silent, as if not in the mood to talk.

After a while, he whispered, "Manny, can your subordinates ask you a question?"

"No." Jiang Shining said.

Mu Chi was silent again.

Jiang Shining actually used him to relieve his boredom, and sighed when he saw him like this.

"go ahead."

Mu Chi raised his head, looking at Jiang Shining with a deep and secluded gaze.

"Do you love the emperor?" he asked.

Jiang Shining was taken aback, then gently raised the corners of her mouth.

"Do you love being a shadow guard?" she asked back. Mu Chi was taken aback, Jiang Shining waved his hand before giving him a chance to think, "Next question."

Mu Chi hesitated for a moment before asking, "Why do you want to enter the palace?"

Jiang Shining asked again, "Why are you a shadow guard?"

"I have no choice." Mu Chi said bewildered.

"You still know you have no choice." Jiang Shining rolled his eyes and continued to eat melon seeds.

Jiang Shining ate, suddenly her body stiffened.

She learned late
