Chapter 1030 How could a person do such a cruel thing?

Chapter 1030 How could a person do such a cruel thing?

She quickly replied, "Well, cousin, I was used to calling you that before, but I'm not used to it now."

Xia nodded: "Yeah."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "It's good that you're back. I loved you so much when you were little. You often came to my palace to play back then."

Xiaotian smiled and said, "Really? My grandson was ill before and can't remember anything from his childhood."

Shen Xia frowned. Has Xiaotian ever been sick?

I haven't heard him say that.

Shen Xia listened to the grandfather and grandson talking for a few more words.

Later, the Queen Mother gave Xiaotian some more rewards.

Then Xiaotian and Shen Xia left together.

The Queen Mother watched the two men leave.

He murmured, "They are really destined to meet each other."

Nanny Fang comforted her from the side: "Does the Queen Mother need to do anything?"

Nanny Fang and Nanny Yu are both the Empress Dowager's confidants.

But Nanny Fang grew up with the Empress Dowager in her boudoir.

Know all about the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother shook her head: "Not for now. I think he was still young at that time and might not remember anything. Don't cause any more trouble. Why are the resting pills getting less and less these days?"

Nanny Fang said, "Daoist Master Tianyuan said that there has been a lack of blood recently, so there are no finished products."

The Queen Mother frowned and said, "Useless things, it's hard to sell them in the capital, can't we go to a small place?"

Nanny Fang thought to herself, "We've used up most of the small towns around here, and we can't have too many missing, so we came to the capital."

Can the capital be the same as other places?

That's why just a few people missing caused such a big fuss.

Shen Xia and Xiao Tian left Cining Palace.

Only then did Shen Xia see the sweat on Xiaotian's forehead.

"what happened to you?"

Xiaotian shook his head: "It's okay," and then looked at the person next to him.

The young eunuch consciously moved back.

Shen Xia knew that Xiaotian had something to tell her, so she glanced at Ruyi.

Ruyi was still holding the tea given by the Queen Mother.

Shen Xia and Xiaotian walked forward.

The road was empty, no one was there.

Shen Xia felt that Xiaotian was a little afraid of the Queen Mother.

But he pretended to be calm.

"Sister, stay away from the Queen Mother."

Shen Xia frowned. She was wary of the Queen Mother because of some things, but the Queen Mother was Xiaotian's grandmother. Why would Xiaotian be like this?

Shen Xia raised her hand to wipe the sweat off Xiao Tian's forehead: "Okay, I know, are you used to being in the palace?"

Xiaotian nodded: "I'm used to it."

"How do you get along with your brother?"

"good."

Shen Xia felt heavy-hearted. In fact, if Xiaotian didn't go back, his younger brother Yu Heng would be the most favorable heir to the throne, but Xiaotian had gone back now.

That is the eldest son.

Shen Xia was actually worried that he would be bullied by the second prince.

Now it seems that it will happen.

"Xiaotian, sister taught you that before you have strength, you should be patient, but you must also protect yourself and not be bullied everywhere. Some people are malicious. The weaker you are, the more they will bully you. On the contrary, if you resist, the other party will have to be cautious."

Shen Xia looked at Xiaotian and didn't know whether this was right or wrong.

Of course, I wanted to send Xiaotian to the palace in order to dispel the emperor's fear of the Princess's Mansion.

Let the emperor think that they will bet on Xiaotian.

There is no intention to seize the throne.

But now seeing Xiaotian, Shen Xia felt a little regretful.

Xiaotian looked at Shen Xia's worried eyes and said, "Sister, I'm really fine, don't worry! After all, I'm the eldest son."

"Okay, then why are you so afraid of the Queen Mother?"

Xiaotian looked around and then whispered in Shen Xia's ear.

Shen Xia looked at Xiaotian in horror.

"Go, leave now."

"it is good."

After Shen Xia heard Xiaotian's words, all the guesses in her mind came together.

No wonder!

But this matter involves too much.

They can only protect themselves.

Shen Xia looked at Xiao Tian: "Don't tell this to anyone, understand?"

Xiaotian nodded: "Yes."

The reason why Xiaotian told Shen Xia was that he was worried that Shen Xia would suffer a loss at the hands of the Queen Mother.

After all, the Queen Mother is not a good person.

Of course Xiaotian didn’t know that there was something else going on between the Queen Mother and his sister.

Shen Xia looked at the time and it was almost time for dinner.

I went directly to the banquet venue.

Needless to say, all banquets were the same, there was nothing new, and Shen Xia was not interested.

After all, she has more things on her mind now.

She wanted to ask the princess, but she thought that there were his majesty's people in the princess's mansion, and she didn't know if there were any people from the queen mother.

And her house.

There might be spies out there, so it seems everyone has to be extremely cautious from now on.

Shen Xia was very close to Gu Ziyan, but didn't say anything?

Because my heart is a mess.

I don’t have the mood to gossip about Gu Ziyan anymore.

Next, Shen Xia started going to the academy for classes again, with Ling Heng every day.

School started and Ling Heng stopped making trouble.

I'm in a good mood every day.

Because Li Yi is not in the house.

So Shen Xia asked Ling Heng to send someone to send Shen's mother to Shen's father's side.

It’s a good thing that the two of them have company, otherwise it would be boring at home.

Doctor Cui also left after Xiao Bei left.

Only Grandpa Shen is still in the mansion.

Shen Xia had originally planned to open a clinic, but he hasn't started working on it recently.

Since Grandpa Shen was fine, Shen Xia would send the three little ones over every morning to wake up Grandpa.

Practice some simple words.

Although the three little ones were not very used to it at first, they finally agreed as their resistance was futile.

Gu Ziyan went to the new yard that Zheng Jinshu bought.

Shen Xia and Xia Shuran took their children to warm the house.

Of course, during this time Shen Xia also learned from Zheng Jinshu how many women had disappeared in the capital.

Later it was discovered that these women were all unmarried.

As for why the matter got out of hand, it was because there was a woman who, although unmarried, had lost her virginity and was not wanted, so she was not used for the time being.

He actually ran away.

And he was rescued at the right time, although Shen Xia asked a lot of questions.

I basically have an idea of ​​it.

She always felt strange that the Queen Mother was already so old, how could she maintain such a condition?

Now it seems that some secret technique was used to refine the medicine using virgin blood.

Shen Xia thought again about the first time she went to the Empress Dowager's palace.

The Bodhisattva statue that is enshrined.

Just now I remember that it was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the Bodhisattva of atonement and repentance.

Having done such a heinous thing, it is no wonder that he has been copying Buddhist scriptures and chanting Buddha's name all the time. It turns out that he feels guilty and is afraid of going to the eighteen levels of hell.

How could someone be so vicious?

Now they dare to arrest people in Beijing. It seems that almost all the people in the surrounding areas have been arrested.

Later I thought about it and realized that Xiaotian was afraid of the Queen Mother.

Think again about Xiaotian’s mysterious death that year.

It seems that this may also be related to the Queen Mother.

Because Xiaotian accidentally discovered the Queen Mother's secret.

In other words, there might have been other palace maids missing in the palace before.

The more Shen Xia thought about it, the more frightened she became.

I don’t know how many women that old witch has persecuted.

The Queen Mother cannot be moved, but if the Taoist priest is killed.

This way, fewer women would be sacrificed.

I have heard of this secret technique in modern times, but I didn’t expect that someone would actually use it.

How many lives have been lost over the years?

Shen Xia came back from Zheng Mansion.

So I went to the princess's mansion.

I told the princess about this.

The eldest princess was also surprised when she heard this. How could a person do such a cruel thing?
