Emperor Yan touched the forehead of the third prince and looked at him lovingly.

He said, "I have already sent someone to investigate this matter, and I will give you and Yao'er an explanation." ”

"But it's up to the emperor to decide. Su Zixu replied with a smile, but there was no trace of warmth in his eyes.

As long as Emperor Yan investigates deeply, he will know that it is the poisonous hand of Queen Liu, and I don't know how he will deal with it. As if it hadn't happened, or should you give Queen Liu a little punishment? Su Zixu preferred to believe the former.

Early the next morning

"Mother, the queen has woken up. Ruri replied in a low voice.

Su Zixu groaned for a while, and said, "Has the emperor ever been to Kunning Palace?"

"Go. ”

Su Zixu lowered her head and pondered the events of the day, she remembered the moment she looked back, Queen Liu stared at her directly, just a look, she understood.

Queen Liu was testing her, and the Blood Lion was also coming at her. Could it be that Yao Lao told her identity? Impossible, if this is the case, Empress Liu will definitely mess up when facing her, there is only one possibility, she began to doubt her.

"Niangniang, I heard that the emperor grounded the queen's mother. ”

As soon as this incident came out, the harem was in an uproar, Queen Liu sat on the throne for three years and never made a mistake, and it was the first time that she was grounded by the emperor himself like this.

However, it calmed down the anger of the public, after all, the matter was provoked by Queen Liu, although it was found out that the beast field was mishandled, but Queen Liu could not escape the blame. Those injured concubines got the benefits, and they dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and the matter was over.

"Grounded?" Su Zixu muttered, sneering disdainfully, and then lowered his eyes, his face cold.

The emperor's biggest punishment for the Liu family is to be grounded, if Yao'er loses her life today, the ending will be just like that. It was only those palace people who died.

Su Zixu rubbed his hands tightly.

No, she couldn't wait any longer.

Even if the Liu family has done a big mistake, Emperor Yan will still forgive her, and it is even more difficult to get rid of Empress Liu with the help of Emperor Yan's hand, and if you want to take revenge, you can only rely on her own strength.

Su Zixu thought about it together, reached out and took out pen and ink, and wrote a letter in contemplation.

She ordered: "Liuli, bring the carrier pigeon from the main palace." ”

Ruri took the order and walked out. When she took the carrier pigeon outside the house to prepare to fly according to Su Zixu's instructions, she was entangled for a while and took down the note, and after thinking about it, she still didn't open it, and put the letter back intact.

……

"Mother, there's new news. Liuli ran in breathlessly, bent down and rested for a while before saying, "General Ye was arrested by Mo Yanguo's people, and his life and death are uncertain. ”

"General Ye was arrested?" Su Zixu was only slightly surprised, and then reached out and poured himself a cup of tea, while tasting it unhurriedly.

General Ye is the highest general in the army, and if he is captured by the people of Mo Yanguo, the morale of the soldiers of Nanfeng Kingdom will definitely be in turmoil.

In this battle, the tide will soon turn around.

"Niangniang, why are you ......" Although Liuli was full of doubts in her heart, she didn't ask much.

Niangniang specially sent people from Jiumen to inquire about the news, and she was very concerned about the battle a few days ago, why aren't you in a hurry now?

"This is the emperor's business, this palace is just a powerless woman, what do these things have to do with this palace. Let our people continue to keep an eye on the battle situation, and inform Hongu as soon as there is new news. ”

Thinking that Ye Lan was arrested, it was extremely surprising, whether it was martial arts or resourcefulness, Ye Lan was a leader in the army, and there must be something strange about it.

She just waited for news with peace of mind.

……

"Apricot, Apricot......" Queen Liu called out with a dry mouth.

Xing'er was sitting on the edge of Queen Liu's bed and taking a nap, and she woke up after hearing the voice, and when she saw Queen Liu awake, her eyes lit up, and she was surprised: "Niangniang, you are finally awake." ”

She helped Queen Liu to get up, and Queen Liu muttered, "Water, give water to the palace." ”

Xing'er hurriedly ran to pour water for her, and after Queen Liu drank the water, she was finally much more comfortable, and the moment she reached out and rubbed her aching forehead, the tingling sensation in her back spread to her internal organs.

She frowned and said, "What's wrong with this palace?"

Xing'er grabbed her hand and stopped: "Niangniang, your back is injured, don't move." ”

Empress Liu sat on the bed, carefully thinking about the events of the previous few days, and when she remembered everything, she said weakly: "How are things?"

Xing'er lowered her head and struggled for a while before responding: "Niangniang, you have been in a coma for two days and one night, and now you are grounded by the emperor." ”

Empress Liu was stunned.

After only half a sound, she reacted and said with a light smile: "Is it because of the matter of the blood lion?

Apricot nodded.

"How long?" she asked.

Xing'er was afraid that Queen Liu would be stimulated and her wound would recur, so she comforted softly: "Two months, Niangniang, when you are well, plead with the emperor, and the slave believes that the emperor will choose to deal with it lightly." ”

Where did Niangniang suffer such a grievance, and before she woke up, the emperor gave the order first, isn't this embarrassing Niangniang in public?

Even if something went wrong at the Spring Festival banquet, it wasn't all Niangniang's fault, it was the palace people in the Beast Farm who didn't tame the blood lion well, how could it be blamed on Niangniang alone.

The more Apricot thought about it, the more she was wronged for Queen Liu.

"The emperor must have a reason for doing this, so don't worry about it. Empress Liu said, "How are the third prince and the second prince?"

The Spring Festival banquet was arranged by her, and the scene was out of control for a while, and it was normal for the emperor to be angry and blame, she suffered by herself, and naturally had no face to plead.

It's just that I didn't expect that the blood lion would be so crazy that even she was hurt.

"The third prince and the second prince are fine, it seems that they were saved by Concubine Yue. The scene that day was too chaotic, she couldn't see clearly, she vaguely remembered that there was a shadow catching the bodies of the second prince and the third prince, and later found that Concubine Yue was standing next to them, thinking that she was right.

"Mother, our guess is right. "The biggest harvest of the Spring Festival Banquet is this.

Empress Liu said noncommittally: "Hmm." After a pause, she continued, "Did Yao Lao reply?"

Xing'er sighed and said: "Niangniang, there is no news from Yao Lao, and Miss Dugu went to investigate, but there is no clue." ”

Apricot lowered her eyes, and she couldn't help but worry in her heart. Yao Lao has no news for no reason, and things are definitely wrong.

She frowned, lowered her head and coughed a few times.

"Mother, are you alright?"

"It's fine. As soon as Queen Liu finished speaking, she coughed even more violently. As soon as she was excited, she felt the bandage on her back crack, and there was a faint pain.

"Xing'er, help Hongu look at the back. As soon as Queen Liu turned around, Xing'er looked at her blood-stained clothes with a shocked expression.

She shuddered, "Mother, you're bleeding." Come on, call the doctor. ”
