"So you were the first person to see the prince after he was wounded?" asked the queen again.

Su Ran reacted that the queen wanted to know what happened that night, and she nodded: "But there were also guards and palace maids around the concubine at that time, and we saw it together." ”

"Liu Guifei, they insisted that the person who assassinated was the princess of war, what do you think?"

The queen has sent someone to secretly inquire about Su Ran's situation in the East Palace these days, and let people follow her for a few days to know that she will come and go to the garden at this hour every day, so she specially waited for her here.

What happened to Princess Ronghua and Su Qing in the attic that day soon reached the queen's ears.

The queen was afraid for a while, and rushed to Princess Ronghua's palace to see that she was safe and sound, and she was relieved, and she originally had some vigilance and suspicion about Su Qing because of this.

But Princess Ronghua took the initiative to inform her about it, and told her that when she was nervous, she saw a scene that she hadn't seen many years ago.

In the evening, news of the assassination of the crown prince came out, and the queen was also at the banquet, hoping to hear the news that the prince was dead, but in the end he was only wounded.

Su Ran saw that the queen was a little distracted, she had been outside for a long time and it was time to go back.

"Queen Mother, the concubine only knew that the crown prince was injured that night, and she didn't see anything else, as for the princess of war...... She did drink too much that night, and it was a bit beyond ordinary people to be able to stab a person when she was drunk without being discovered. ”

"So you think it's not her?" Su Ran's words made the queen even more sure that she was a person who could be wooed.

Su Ran stood up and saluted: "Queen Mother, it's not too early for me to go back, if I go back late, I will be scolded." ”

"Hongu knows, you can go. The queen glanced at her lightly, but she didn't hold back, but she already had a plan in her heart.

In the evening, she specially prepared a dinner in the Fengyi Palace and invited the emperor to come over for dinner together.

The emperor originally planned to go to Concubine Liu's place, but the queen specially sent someone to invite him, and it was difficult to refuse, so he came over a little reluctantly.

Today, there are some excerpts from the newspaper asking him to send materials to the Northern Zhou Dynasty to give them away.

As soon as he thought that Princess Yanran of Xiliang was now alone in the Zhanwang Mansion, he hated it so much that he threw all these folds into the brazier and burned them in a fit of anger.

"I heard that the emperor has been reviewing and folding until late at night these days, don't get tired, the dragon body is important. ”

The queen also deliberately dressed up today, which was different from her usual style, and the emperor's eyes lit up, and he felt that today was the right time.

"King Xiliang has just returned, and the surrounding small countries are all restless, this year's Great Apocalypse is full of disasters and difficulties, and I must not take it lightly, recently there is a wizard in the capital, who can observe the heavens and calculate the destiny of heaven, and I plan to invite him into the palace to try. ”

The emperor was playing with a wine glass made of pure gold in his hand, and since the death of Xiao Jingchen's father and brother, there have been constant wars around him.

In the past, those nomads in the north were constantly harassing and tempting, and in the past two years, some forces in the south have been growing, and even have faintly formed a trend of confrontation.

The capital of the Great Apocalypse is set in the very center of the territory, and the water and soil economy in the south are developing better, and many tributes are transported from the south every year.

The Marquis of Nanding also made war exploits for the country.

During the Spring Festival, the emperor specially sent someone to send an invitation to Nanding Marquis to enter Beijing for the festival, if he usually came to the capital early with several carts of gold, silver and jewelry, but this year he only replied with a letter, saying that the road was far away and inconvenient to travel.

Although the emperor is greedy for pleasure all day long, once someone threatens his imperial power, it will never work.

"Wizard?" the queen frowned, what kind of crooked way is this?

"It's nothing to invite into the palace, but the emperor must be more careful, in case someone is playing tricks again, we will lure the wolf into the house. ”

"This queen doesn't have to worry, I naturally know. The emperor glanced at the queen, she didn't stop him like before, sure enough, there was some change, and he was very satisfied.

"Is there anything the queen has to say about calling me over today?"

"Your Majesty, the concubines do have some things, but the concubines stated in advance that this matter is by no means aimed at anyone, just for the stability of our Great Apocalypse. ”

"Are you talking about the crown prince?" The emperor's head turned faster this time, and the only person in the entire harem who could be targeted by the queen was Concubine Liu.

"Don't get involved in this kind of thing in the matter between you and the concubine, the assassination of the prince is a big deal, and I will definitely investigate it!"

"Your Majesty, the crown prince was indeed injured a little, but now he has already recovered, and now the most headache for you should be the Marquis of Nanding, but you should also know that the only one in the entire court who can compete with the Marquis of Nanding is the King of War. ”

The emperor's expression was stunned, and he squinted at the queen: "What do you mean?"

"The marriage of the king of war was given by the emperor himself, and I thought that I had listened to some people's rumors at the beginning, and I wanted to send a disaster star to the king of war, but I didn't expect this disaster star to become a lucky star instead, and he helped the king of war to detoxify not to mention that he also cured his legs. ”

"If the emperor hadn't heard these words at the beginning, there would have been these troubles later, if he completely turned his face with the king of war at this time, in case they combined the north and the south, the capital would be sandwiched in the middle, but it would have been shattered as soon as it was squeezed. ”

The emperor slammed the wine glass in his hand on the table, and he was already panicking before it happened.

Apparently poking him in the sore spot, the queen continued: "Even if the princess of war is disposed of and seeks justice for the crown prince, then what? The matter has already happened, and it will not have any effect, it will just make Liu Guifei happy for a few days. ”

"Okay, don't say any more!" If any of the ministers of the court had spoken these words in front of him, he would have raised his foot and kicked people.

But the queen ...... The reason why he is still the first of the six palaces, the emperor naturally has plans to be in it.

The queen was waiting for this moment, and immediately got up and knelt down: "Please forgive the emperor, as the head of the six palaces, the concubine naturally thinks about some things a little more, if you offend the emperor, please punish the emperor." ”

"You're right, it's just that the prince is the prince after all, and I should give him an explanation. The emperor reached out and helped her up.

The queen raised her head slightly, and there was a wave of water in her eyes: "Isn't the emperor going to invite a wizard into the palace? ”

Early the next morning, the emperor went directly from the Fengyi Palace to the court.

Before the queen could dress up Princess Ronghua, she hurried over: "Queen Mother, what did you say to your father and emperor last night?"
