Chapter 946: Suspicion
Gu Wanning frowned and said, "The assassin has committed suicide. I ordered a thorough investigation into the identity of this Assassin last night, and so far nothing has been found out of the wrong. ”
"This person is indeed a dancing girl in the palace, who has been in the palace for more than ten years, and has neither relatives nor friends outside the palace. There is no chance to leave the palace on weekdays. ”
Empress Dowager Min's eyes flashed with murderous aura, and she said categorically: "Someone must have secretly bribed the dancing girl and made her a dead soldier." ”
Thinking about it, I felt afraid: "Fortunately, Concubine Cui blocked this blow for you, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." ”
It's a bit unkind to think so. However, all people in the world are selfish.
For Empress Dowager Min, Gu Guanning, as a daughter-in-law, is the closest person in the world, second only to her son Xiao Xu. A concubine who has just entered the palace and hasn't seen each other for two years is of course far behind.
Gu Guanning was obviously in a bad mood and didn't answer this conversation.
Empress Dowager Min continued: "In short, this matter must be strictly investigated to the end. There must be no room for anyone in the palace who has a bad mind. Someone dares to assassinate you today, and someone will dare to assassinate the mourning family and the emperor in other days, as well as Gillian and Yi's sisters and brothers...... This case must not be opened, and the mastermind behind this must be found out, and we will never let it go!"
Empress Dowager Min, who has always been soft-hearted, killed this time.
Gu Guanning nodded and responded.
……
The assassination in the Jiaofang Palace spread throughout the government and the opposition with the momentum of sparks.
Concubine Cui was loyal and courageous, and the matter of blocking the poisonous hairpin blow for Queen Gu was also rumored.
The Son of Heaven praised the Cui family in the court, and in addition to rewarding him, he specially promoted Cui Saburo to Zhongshu Ling. The dragon of the holy family is hot for the eyes. One by one, they just wanted to have their own daughters enter the palace, and rushed to block the assassins for Queen Gu.
For a time, the word Cui family was repeatedly mentioned, and it became the first family of Daqin.
Cui Shangshu couldn't afford to be sick, so he took leave to recuperate in the house. There is a constant stream of people visiting the patient.
Mrs. Cui managed to receive visitors for a few days, and soon fell ill. The Cui family closed the door to thank the guests.
At the same time, everyone in the palace is in danger.
Gu Guanning ordered that the identity of the assassin be strictly investigated. All the people who knew this dancing girl were interrogated repeatedly.
The Wei Wangfu and the Han Wangfu avoided this matter, and they didn't want to mess with it at all, so as not to be suspected of being the mastermind behind the scenes. The Fu family and the Min family were also trembling, lest the emperor and queen be suspicious of their own family.
On this day, someone from the palace came to report: "Queen Qiyu, Concubine Fu was overly frightened, had a high fever, and kept talking nonsense." The palace people around Concubine Fu didn't dare to hide it anymore and delayed it, so they came to send a letter, begging the queen to be gracious and let the imperial doctor go to see Concubine Fu. ”
Fu Yu?
Gu Wanning's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked lightly, "Has Concubine Min ever been sick?"
The palace man replied, "No." ”
"Concubine Min and Concubine Fu also witnessed the assassin's assassination, Concubine Min is safe and sound, why is Concubine Fu overly frightened?"
Gu Wanning's voice cooled: "Pass on the order of the palace and let the imperial doctor go to see Concubine Fu." When Concubine Fu is better and can stay, she will come to the Jiaofang Palace, and the palace will ask her in person. ”
……
The things in the palace are rarely spread outside the palace now.
For some reason, this response quickly spread, and within a day, it reached the ears of the Fu family.
Mrs. Fu was so worried that she couldn't even eat.
The eldest daughter-in-law, Xu Shi, persuaded in a low voice: "The one who is clear will clear himself! Mother-in-law does not need to panic. Our Fu family has never been involved in this matter from beginning to end, the emperor is wise, and the queen is also a shrewd and wise person, and she will never suspect our Fu family. ”
The second daughter-in-law, Mao Shi, was not so calm, and said while wiping her tears: "Sister Yu must be frightened, overly frightened, and with a high fever. In case there are three long and two short...... My daughter-in-law can't live anymore!"
Whoever gave birth is distressed!
The Mao family has two sons, and only one daughter, Fu Yu, is like a pearl in the palm of her hand. Now that he heard that Fu Yu was suspicious of Queen Gu in the palace, he was so anxious that he burst into tears on the spot.
Xu's mood is not much better. Fu Yu was questioned in the palace, but in the end, he didn't want to be suspicious of the Fu family?
The eldest son, Fu Zhuo, was originally in the heart of the emperor, and was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, with a low position. Now Cui Jia Saburo has also come out, and he and Fu Zhuo go hand in hand. Xu's heart was already unhappy, and if there was such a thing, it would be even more unhappy.
"Brother and sister, don't make trouble here. ”
Xu said lukewarmly, neither yin nor yang: "At this juncture, if something happens to you, outsiders will know about it, and they will think that your mother and daughter are thieves." This basin of dirty water was splashed on the Fu family's head, and no one believed it if they wanted to clear it up. ”
Mao Shi raised his head and looked angry: "What does the sister-in-law mean by this? Could it be that she dislikes our second room and has caused you to be affected?" My sister Yu is suffering in the palace, where can she compare to your sister Yan, who is peacefully serving as a princess in the palace of King Wei......"
"Shut up!"
Mrs. Fu shouted angrily, and the two daughters-in-law were immediately silent.
"What time is it? Are you two still in the mood to be bickering here?"
Mrs. Fu's face sank like water, and her eyes flashed with anger: "Before the wind spreads outside, the two of you will be in chaos first! If something really happens, just the two of you, our Fu family will be scattered!"
"If you don't succeed enough, you will lose more than you will lose! You have lived for decades in vain, and you are not as good as a yellow-mouthed child in trouble!"
"If you keep making a fuss like this, I'll send you all back to your mother's house immediately!"
The Xu family is over forty years old, and they are so scolded that they dare not speak at this time.
Mrs. Fu lost her temper and sent someone to the concierge to ask.
Fu Ge has not returned to his home yet.
The Son of Heaven is diligent in political affairs, and often leaves the elders in the palace to discuss matters, and it is common to return to the house in the middle of the night. Today, even Fu Zhuo was left in the palace.
The more Mrs. Fu thought about it, the more anxious she became, and ordered Xu: "Go and call Luo, I have something to ask her." ”
Xu subconsciously responded: "The Luo family is soft-spoken, what can she do?"
Mrs. Fu was so angry that her temples jumped suddenly, and she scolded angrily: "Luo is a close friend of Empress Gu's boudoir, and if she says a word in front of Empress Gu, it is worth a hundred words for you." Don't go yet!"
Xu was scolded so disgraced that he didn't dare to talk more, so he personally called Luo Zhixuan.
Luo Zhixuan had just returned to her parents' house today, and obviously heard some unfavorable rumors, and her pretty face was full of solemnity. After giving Mrs. Fu a salute, she sighed: "Grandmother, my granddaughter-in-law went back to her parents' house today and heard about some not very good things. The granddaughter-in-law is hesitating, not knowing whether to report to her grandmother. Unexpectedly, the grandmother took the initiative to summon her granddaughter-in-law to come to inquire. ”
Mrs. Fu's heart sank.
Xu and Mao didn't care about arguing, and asked in unison, "What did you hear?"
