Chapter 423: The Scapegoat

Langhua got up and freshened up, and then went to greet Mrs. Gu, and was about to have breakfast in the room, when Mo entered the door: "Princess Fu'an is here." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Langhua glanced at Xiao's mother and showed a "take a look" expression.

Sure enough, she was right.

Qi Yushuang wore goose-yellow gowns, walked in the door with a smile, and was surprised when he saw the maid entering the door with food: "Why are you using breakfast, at this time...... Shouldn't Old Lady Gu have already eaten it?"

Langhua usually accompanies Mrs. Gu to eat, but recently she ran around outside the house, which made Mrs. Gu feel distressed, so in order to let her sleep a little longer, she didn't call her over, and even opened a small kitchen in her yard, lest she have to follow Mrs. Gu to eat those soft foods that the old people love to eat.

Qi Yushuang listened to Langhua say this, and looked envious: "Old Lady Gu really loves you." ”

Langhua nodded, many things, grandmother will think of doing it for her in front, everyone in the family says that grandmother can't do without her, in fact, she can't do without grandmother, as long as she can't see grandmother, she will always feel that something is missing in her heart.

It is difficult for her to replace her relationship with her grandmother and father.

Langhua thought of this, and the shadow of Pei Qitang flashed in front of her, and she couldn't help but be stunned, how could she think of Pei Qitang at this time.

The two sat down and talked affectionately.

Qi Yushuang said in a low voice: "I don't know if today's show is hot or not. ”

Langhua and Qi Yu looked at each other and smiled, it was for sure that it was lively, but how lively it was to be who the people in the stands were.

……

King Zhuang's life was terrifying, and he hadn't felt like this for a long time.

After the death of the first emperor, the queen mother was weak, and he took refuge in the past and was immediately reused by the queen mother, and since then, life has been smooth.

He knows a truth very well, to be a person who is needed, in order to make himself invincible.

But I didn't expect things to change, Princess Ning had an accident, and the Queen Mother didn't reach out to take care of it, but instead connived at the Gu family to continue to investigate the case.

"Lord Wang," Concubine Zhuang stepped forward to serve, "It's not already arranged, why are you still preoccupied." ”

King Zhuang took a sip of water, trying his best to make himself look more energetic, decadence can easily lose his prestige and become a weak person in the eyes of others: "Pei Qitang is not easy to deal with, not to mention that there is a Gu Shiheng." ”

Concubine Zhuang showed a look of regret on her face, she knew that she should not have introduced Gu Langhua to the Queen Mother back then, but who would have thought that the daughter of a squire would gain a firm foothold in Beijing from then on.

"The Queen Mother has never summoned you to the palace," King Zhuang looked at the side concubine, "It stands to reason that the Queen Mother followed the Emperor to the autumn hunt, and the Cining Palace should be busy, and the Queen Mother can pass you over with a reason......

The side concubine is the female official next to the queen mother, and it is very common to appear in Cining Palace whenever she appears.

This is also what Concubine Zhuang is worried about: "Fortunately, Miss Xu will help, Yuhuan said, Miss Xu will reveal Du Qizhong's matter to the Queen Mother." However, they have no way of judging what the queen mother's attitude is.

Concubine Zhuang always felt that the Queen Mother would not be too ruthless.

After all, Ning Wangfu folded a princess, and there were already enough people from the Imperial City Division to pay the price for this case.

That official is not greedy for ink? It will still be like this if there is a new batch.

Concubine Zhuang Wang thought of Sun Zhenren, "Sun Zhenren said that we have the same roots and branches as Ning Wangfu, could what he said be true?" Sun Zhenren's implication is that if something happens to Ning Wangfu, they will also be affected. It's a pity that the prince didn't believe Sun Zhenren's words, and felt that it was arranged by Princess Ning at all, and the purpose was to let them support King Ning, so he didn't take Sun Zhenren to heart.

King Zhuang stood up and sneered: "It's just a Taoist priest talking nonsense, although I don't know what he said to Princess Ning, how can my fortune be in the hands of a fool." ”

"Don't say it's him, even if King Hui and King Qing didn't reach out, what ability does he have for me to plan for him, everyone is surnamed Qi, I really want to rebel, why should I be a stepping stone for them, I won't be able to pull up the banner myself?"

"What I regret is that I shouldn't have taken advantage of Princess Ning. ”

At that time, he thought that it would be easier to transport illicit goods from the frontier by taking advantage of the Han family's connections, but now it seems that this move has been wrong.

Princess Ning is an out-and-out fool, she panicked when she was grabbed by the tail, and buried herself in it.

"Lord Wang," the steward told outside, "there is news from the Du family." ”

He was waiting for this news, and King Zhuang walked out of the inner room.

The steward bowed his head and said, "Something happened to the Du family, Lord Du drew his sword in the courtyard and killed himself, lit another fire, and burned the entire courtyard clean." ”

That courtyard is the place where King Zhuang saw Du Qizhong, and now it has been burned, which will save him trouble.

King Zhuang nodded, Du Qizhong still had a bit of backbone.

The steward said: "As soon as the fire was set here, the people from the Imperial City Division rushed in, but it was still too late, Du Qizhong burned the study, there were all books that were easy to burn, and the entire study would burn down in a few moments, although the Imperial City Division extinguished the fire, it got nothing." ”

When a man dies, he can be blamed on him as he pleases.

King Zhuang finally breathed a sigh of relief, this matter is really dangerous, as long as it is one step late, let Du Qizhong fall into the hands of Pei Qitang, the consequences are unimaginable.

Fortunately, although Pei Qitang had his eyes on the Guards, he wanted to put a long line to catch big fish, so he didn't do it, so he was given a chance.

King Zhuang said lightly: "You don't have to be afraid of anything this time in the autumn hunt." "Pei Qitang, a person who doesn't know the height of the sky, wants to investigate him, but he also has evidence in his hand.

Without proof, no one would want to splash dirty water on his head.

……

The Queen's Kunning Palace.

Mrs. Zhao cried very sadly: "The prison of the Imperial City Division said that he would not be allowed to enter, how many days have it been, and we don't know what happened to the people." ”

"Mother, you can't ignore it, you have to think about it, you can't watch him die. ”

The queen frowned and sat on the big kang near the window, why didn't she want the Imperial City Division to release Zhao Er, otherwise she wouldn't have risked letting people go to the Pei family.

What she hoped was that Pei Qitang would be able to raise his hand.

The queen said: "It's not already said, I will let you see it today." ”

Mrs. Zhao nodded again and again: "But there is no news at all." "She has been waiting since last night, and the Zhao family is guarding outside the prison of the Imperial City Division, as long as the Imperial City Division is willing to let them go, they will rush in to check.

I don't know why, the Imperial City Division just refused to let go.

The chamberlain hurriedly walked over and said two words in the queen's ear.

A complicated look appeared on the queen's face: "Have you inquired about everything?"

The chamberlain nodded: "Lord Pei entered the palace early in the morning, and he has been staying in the Qinzheng Palace and has not come out yet, and the emperor has summoned Lord Gu of the Imperial City Division, and there should have been a result." ”

The queen's eyes jumped, it stands to reason that it should be a good thing to have a result, but why did she feel uneasy.

Good morning everyone.
