Chapter 636: Undercover
Lu Qifang was shocked, "Could it be that you still want to set up an empress?"
Guo Wenying said in her heart, what's wrong with the empress? Who said that Nanqi can't have an empress? But she thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it on her face, after all, this is still a man's world, if she really has this thought, the first person who wants to kill her will have to be Lu Qifang.
She hurriedly said: "It's not like that, it's just that this woman is a general, and if she is born, a new emperor can come into the world." ”
Lu Qifang was relieved at this time, he was really afraid that this girl would ignore it and toss this thousands of miles of rivers and mountains into a bad situation. He said, "I will send someone to arrange this matter, and it must be completed before you give birth." And who is plotting, I also want to find out. ”
The way he stared was very scary, and anyone who knew his character knew that he was really angry. Usually he calculates others, but how has he ever been calculated? If he finds out who it is, he must have skinned him alive.
After Lu Qifang left, Guo Wenying has been a little unsettled, she is afraid of seeing Feng Jingting, and even more afraid that he will ask about it, to be honest, she really doesn't want to lie to him. But fortunately, this matter was not done by Lu Qifang, someone deliberately framed him, so he should be able to prevaricate in the past.
Hongxiang looked at her worried appearance and said in a low voice: "Miss, I still have an idea, I don't know if to say it?"
Guo Wenying said: "What idea?"
"Prepare a baby boy in advance, and replace it if you give birth to a girl, and you will know it. ”
Guo Wenying said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, you can think of such a thing, and this matter must not be mentioned again, in case the news leaks out." ”
Her own children, whether male or female, will be kept by her side, how can she be replaced by another boy?
She sighed and said, "Last time, you asked you to keep an eye on the people in the palace in private, can you find anything suspicious?"
Hongxiang said: "I checked a few, at that time, it was the two sisters Yuanbao and Yuanyue who prepared the clothes and incense, these two people were newly transferred, they originally served the first emperor and queen, and then the first queen died, and they swept the floor in Lanyue Pavilion, and then they were assigned to Kunning Palace." If you want to make the cat crazy, these two people are the most suspicious, but at that time, the mother changed her clothes, and before she could investigate in detail, the clothes had already been washed, and the laundry was Lu Dan. It's nothing for her to take care of the clothes of Kunning Palace, but she started too quickly, but she washed the clothes in half an hour, which has the meaning of destroying the corpse. ”
Guo Wenying frowned, "These are the three people who are suspicious?"
"Yes. ”
Guo Wenying sighed, this Hongxiang is loyal, but his ability to do things is really average, after so many days of investigation, only three people were found. In her opinion, if the other party is so easy to find out, he is not worthy of being an undercover agent.
She said, "When I made an appointment to meet Lord Lu that day, who was waiting outside?"
Hongxiang said: "No one? That day, the mother said that everyone should retreat, so she drove away all the idle people." ”
"Who has ever been near the gates?"
Hongxiang thought for a while, "At that time, Manager Xu asked me to serve soup to Niangniang, but I didn't see it." ”
Guo Wenying snorted, "Get Xu Delin." ”
Xu Delin came quickly, arrived in a moment, and bowed with the dust in his hand, "Summoned by Niangniang, I don't know what to order?"
Guo Wenying said: "A few days ago, did you guard the palace gate?"
"Yes, the mother has a decree not to let people get close to the main hall, and the slaves have to guard it themselves. ”
"Have you ever seen anyone approaching?"
"Not really. ”
Guo Wenying suddenly slapped the back of the chair violently, "Xu Delin, are you guilty?"
Xu Delin trembled with fright, "Niangniang, I don't know what crime I committed?"
Guo Wenying snorted coldly: "How did you spread the news of my palace? What benefits did others promise you to betray this palace? Who made you the mastermind, you have explained everything clearly. ”
She waved her hand, and immediately two eunuchs rushed over, one left and one right, and pressed Xu Delin to the ground.
Guo Wenying was extremely angry in her heart, she had been guarding against others, but she didn't expect that it was she, the head of Kunning Palace, who was framing her. She treats Xu Delin well, this guy's status in the palace is second only to Xu Mao, and such a high position will be bribed, who promised him what benefits?
Xu Delin was pressed to the ground and couldn't help but be unconvinced, and forced himself to defend: "Niangniang, it's really not me, I don't know anything." ”
Guo Wenying said: "Come on, bring Xu Mao." ”
Originally, she couldn't figure it out, but just now Xu Delin had a sentence that leaked to the bottom, anyone who does something wrong will have a weak heart, and Xu Delin is the same. He was afraid that she would see the clue, so he deliberately told a lie, but it was this lie, Guo Wenying immediately understood that it was he who leaked the news from her palace.
The matter she discussed with Lu Qifang was known to that person, so he acted in advance and killed them by surprise. Presumably, the clothes she was wearing that day were manipulated and arranged.
As the head of Kunning Palace, what can't be done?
Xu Mao came quickly, he was almost faint these days, he hadn't slept for several days, his eyes were sunken, and he looked a little haggard. Listening to Guo Wenying's summons, he was busy, and when he saw Xu Delin kneeling on the ground, he knew that something was wrong.
He saluted and said, "Niangniang, how did Xu Delin offend Niangniang?"
Guo Wenying said: "You ask him what he did? That day, Manager Xu arranged a meeting with Prime Minister Lu Cheng for the palace, and he leaked it. ”
Xu Mao was also anxious when he heard this, this Xu Delin was recommended by him, and if there was a problem, he would not be able to get rid of it. Especially in this matter, he is also involved, and if he really wants the emperor to know, he will be suspicious of him.
He shouted: "Xu Delin, the miscellaneous family treats you well on weekdays, how can you do such a thing?"
Guo Wenying said: "This person will be handed over to you, what you can ask and what you can't ask, you know it yourself." ”
Even Xu Mao was beaten by these words, Xu Mao's heart trembled, and he sighed secretly, I'm afraid that this ancestor even doubted him. In this harem, you suspect me, I suspect you, and there are few people who are sincere.
He took Xu Delin down to interrogate himself, and as soon as he left, Feng Jingting arrived.
Guo Wenying had already guessed that Feng Jingting would come, but it seemed to be a little later than expected.
In the past two days, she was depressed, and every time he came, the two of them didn't talk much, or they just talked a few words and then broke up.
Feng Jingting seemed to have just gotten angry with someone, and his face was gloomy.
Guo Wenying took a cup of tea and went in, "I don't know what the emperor is worried about? ”
Feng Jingting took a sip of tea, then put it heavily on the table, and said coldly: "What else can I do, it's not those courtiers, who are idle all day long, don't care about state affairs, but they are pointing fingers at my family affairs, and they are in charge of the east and the west." ”
