Chapter 214: Meet the Empress
On the way, Bai Yuxi thought about Baili Qing's words again, what he said was not unreasonable, now that the crown prince is dead, the remaining few powerful princes are vying for power in Kyoto, and Ji Ruhui and Lin Choujiang have no obvious factions, so it is certain that someone will come to woo them.
For the news of Tingzhou.
The team seems to be vast, but in fact, there are more than 3,000 people in total, and the 3,000 soldiers are led by Ji Ruhui and Lin Choujiang, who are the main envoys and deputy envoys respectively, but the real messenger is her, after all, she is the main person in the relief of Tingzhou.
After they left Kyoto, some started new plans, and some were targeted.
At Mu Aoyuan's house, Mu Shihan's body has recovered a lot, and today I originally wanted to send Bai Yuxi, but yesterday Bai Yuxi sent a letter to say something about the King of Chu, and also asked her to rest at home first, so she didn't have to send it off.
The news that she was given to the king of Chu was to let her father make some preparations to prevent accidents in the future. But she couldn't tell her father like that, because he wouldn't believe it, so he had to find someone else.
"Mother, I'll go to the palace. Mu Shihan went to Mrs. Mu's room and affirmed.
"You have always been assertive, this time the mother still has to ask you, what are you doing in the palace?"
"When I went to see the queen mother, when my daughter's reputation was damaged, the queen mother still took good care of me, and now that the prince has died, I will accompany her. Mu Shihan's words are true, but there are still some words that have not been said.
Mrs. Mu was delicate, and she also understood that her daughter had hidden her plans, and she didn't break it, "Your body is fine, don't stay outside for a long time." ”
"Thank you mother, I can save it, my daughter will be fine when she goes to see the queen. Mu Shihan saluted, asked people to prepare some things, and left the palace with the palace token given by the queen.
Now it is the time of the early dynasty, the officials are waiting for the emperor in the Tianchen Palace, there are occasional voices in the hall, the voice is very low, and the emperor has not waited for a while, and some officials have felt that something is wrong.
The emperor would never have let the courtiers wait so long no matter how late he was, and before dawn today, the emperor ordered the revocation of King Qin's grounding order, and it was impossible to still be asleep.
Baili Qing tied his hands and stood in front of him, squinting his eyes slightly, as if he hadn't woken up yet, he was thinking about the war in the northwest, how to win, Dijon and Xiyan joined forces, and the battle in the northwest was not easy to fight.
At the right time, Gonggong Song, who was serving by the emperor's side, walked in and announced in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, "The emperor is unwell today, so he will be spared the early dynasty." ”
Bai Liqing's eyes flashed fiercely, and then he recovered and asked, "How is the emperor now?"
"It's just that I feel cold, a little uncomfortable, it's okay, Lord Baili can rest assured. Gonggong Song gave a reassuring promise.
But Bailiqing didn't believe it, "I have something important to discuss with the emperor, I don't know ...... now"
Gonggong Song was a little embarrassed, but he still had a three-point smile on his face, "Lord Baili asked to see the emperor, and the emperor naturally met, but the slave maid had to report it first." ”
"Thank you. ”
Let's say that in Fengqi Palace, the queen has not had a happy face since the death of the prince, and now when she sees Mu Shihan coming, her face is a little better than before, and she is a little more angry.
"Queen Mother, worrying will only hurt your body, don't be like this, the prince will be sad when the spirit of heaven knows. Mu Shihan put the food on the table one by one, all of them were exquisite pastries, and the appearance of them could make people's appetite move.
"It's hard for you to have a heart, I once lost power, and what I used to slap with now belongs to that demon girl. Her tone seemed calm, but the word demon girl was enough to prove that she was angry.
"The queen mother, the courtiers came to persuade you to be happy, and this made you angry at the beginning, which is not good. ”
"Why didn't I see you coming over a few days ago?" the queen stared at her as she said this, if Mu Shihan didn't answer well, maybe she would be kicked out later.
Not for sure, but for sure.
Mu Shihan didn't show fear and replied, "Shihan was unwell a few days ago. ”
Seeing that the queen's face was about to be cold, she then said: "The world knows that Shihan is a stone girl, and she is not willing to marry home, fortunately, God let me meet the queen mother and the white god doctor, if it were not for the queen mother's mercy, I would not be alive today, if it were not for the white god doctor to heal, I will be a stone girl for the rest of my life." ”
After hearing her finish speaking, the queen looked at her with some surprise, "Listen to your words, your body is already well." ”
"Returning to the queen's mother, it has indeed been cured, the white divine doctor cured the courtiers a few days ago, but she only used the knife and has been lying at home unable to move. "Maybe it's facing the queen, or maybe it's downplayed, and it's not blushing and shy.
"Bai Yuxi's medical skills are so magical, he dared to use a knife there, you weren't afraid at that time?"
The courtiers were naturally afraid, but they didn't want to live for the rest of their lives with the reputation of the stone girl. ”
"Congratulations, if you know...... Forget it, it's too late to say anything now, the prince has already been killed. There were tears and resentment in the queen's eyes, "If you let the palace know who killed the prince, you will definitely let him drink his blood and eat his flesh." ”
Seeing the queen like this, Mu Shihan began to whisper according to the words arranged before: "Queen Mother, the courtiers know who killed the prince. "The first to say, the queen must be interested.
"What did you say?!" the queen stared at her, her hands grasping her shoulders.
The queen's reaction was even greater than she had imagined.
Mu Shihan lowered her head and slowly said it in the queen's ear.
"How could it be? Shouldn't it be Concubine Ning? As soon as my Xu'er leaves, her son is the most qualified to inherit the throne. The queen still didn't understand, and muttered in a low voice.
"The courtiers don't want the queen to be kept in the dark, some things are not as they seem. Mu Shihan only said this, she understood that saying too much would be counterproductive, and when the queen thought about it for a while, she would be able to know the reason.
Telling the queen about the killing of the crown prince by the king of Chu can make the queen find a way to deal with the king of Chu, she is helping Bai Yuxi and using the queen.
She has always disliked calculations, but she can help her friends and can make calculations for people she doesn't know well.
The queen didn't treat her very well before, she just wanted her to be the crown princess, and then as soon as the news that she was a stone girl spread, the queen was cold to her, just to show her generosity, she would still call her to the palace to accompany her.
The world is like this, she doesn't complain, but she doesn't have the closeness to the queen at the beginning.
Bai Yuxi told her that the king of Chu might rebel, but she couldn't tell outsiders the news, so she could only make some arrangements, at least not let the king of Chu see his father's household to take away.
