Chapter 216: Secretly Helping Each Other
"That's nature."
Seeing the excitement on Quan Jingmo's face, Mu Yuxi also smiled.
"Look at your stupidity."
The two looked at each other, full of satisfaction.
If there is really Xiao Jingmo, she thinks that she will be a good mother and educate his children from an early age, and she will let go of her impetuousness and too many grievances for the sake of better children in the education department. She knew that if she gave birth to a girl, she would be the most favored princess in the future, and if she gave birth to a boy, she would definitely be the future prince.
It was not yet noon when I returned to the palace.
"Ji Nan, go and call the imperial doctor to come and take a look at Mu Zhaoyi."
Quan Jingmo commanded.
"Wait a minute. Otherwise, let's wait until the New Year, it's too busy now. I'm going to go to the Phoenix Palace to go to the Diexiang Palace in a hurry, and the emperor, you also have to go to see the ministers, aren't you? ”
Quan Jingmo felt that she was reasonable, so he let her go.
Quan Jingmo came to the front hall, and Mu Zhiyuan, Ku Zetao and Shen Xinzhi were already waiting.
"Tomorrow on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, you order all the adults to come to the palace for the banquet, and the King of Xiling will also participate."
"Your Majesty, the ministers thought about it, if this is a bit inappropriate to leave all the people of Xiling Kingdom in the palace, there are a lot of Xiling people, hundreds of people are placed in the palace, and tomorrow is singing and dancing, it is inevitable that there will be no chaos."
Mu Zhiyuan mentioned.
"I've thought about this, the guards and guards will be strictly guarded. Now there is something that needs to be settled quickly. ”
Quan Jingmo said as he took out a piece of paper from his hand.
"Last night, I received a paper book in Xiyuan."
Quan Jingmo's face was solemn, and he handed over the paper book to Ji Nan to the three people below to circulate.
"This, who dares to do this!"
I saw a line written on the paper: Chinese New Year's Eve is your death day.
This note was stuffed in from the door after falling asleep with Mu Yuxi last night, and Quan Jingmo didn't panic after reading it, but just wondered who this person would be.
"This handwriting looks like a woman's."
Ku Zetao is in charge of justice, so his ability to detect is very high.
"It's not just that, I think. The person who slipped a note into the door last night was also a woman. ”
If he is a man who knows martial arts, he can use martial arts to send the note in, which is safer and easier to escape.
"Perhaps, one of the people who went to Xiyuan yesterday. Look. Mu Yuxi is likely. ”
Mu Zhiyuan opened his mouth, specifically referring to Mu Yuxi.
Ku Zetao heard it and hurriedly objected:
"Lord Mu, this is your mistake, where is the time to put personal grievances on the surface. Not to mention the relationship between Mu Zhaoyi and the emperor, the emperor was defenseless against Mu Zhaoyi. Why is Mu Zhaoyi not good, and she has to write a note in a circle? ”
Ku Zetao really couldn't figure out why Mu Zhiyuan, the father, targeted his daughter so much.
"But what I said makes sense, it is precisely because the emperor is unguarded against Mu Yuxi that she can hide from the world and stuff a note without being discovered."
Mu Zhiyuan didn't mix his personal emotions this time, he just felt that Mu Yuxi was possible, and Mu Yuxi's temperament was uncertain, and it was not clear whether he was an enemy or a friend.
"I suspect it's the Queen Mother."
Quan Jingmo ignored Mu Zhiyuan's words and continued.
"Queen Mother?!"
The three adults said in unison, how could it be the queen mother? Even if the relationship is not good on weekdays, it is her biological son.
"Yes. Dowager. I suspect that it was Mama Lin who delivered the note last night. ”
Mama Lin is the closest person to the Queen Mother, and the two have been together for decades and have nothing to say.
"But, why did Mama Lin ventilate the news? What is the purpose of the Queen Mother? ”
Ku Zetao questioned.
"There are some things I don't want to go around in circles with the three of you, I think you and He Xianming have been on business for many years, and they have both assisted the emperor, and some things are already well known, right? He Xianming had an affair with the Queen Mother. You all know that. ”
Quan Jingmo did not shy away from it for the first time, and put this matter on the bright side.
"Yes."
There was some hesitation on the faces of the three people. But in the end, I admitted.
"The Queen Mother has loved Quan Wanzun since she was a child, and she hopes that it will be Wanzun who will sit on the throne, and I am afraid that everyone in the palace will know about this matter. Quan Wanzun's rebel party tried to usurp the throne before, and He Xianming was the biggest accomplice. It can be seen that the friendship between He Xian and the Queen Mother. Now, I have killed Quan Wanzun, I have killed He Xianming, the Queen Mother is still angry, and the relationship with me is getting worse and worse, which is also a well-known thing. ”
Quan Jingmo spoke calmly. It seems to be talking about something other than someone else's.
"However, I know that Quan Wanzun has a son over the years of being degraded. His whereabouts are unknown. I didn't think too much about implicating the innocent at the beginning, so I didn't investigate further. Now, I suspect that the Queen Mother wants to kill me and let Quan Wanzun's son succeed to the throne. ”
The Queen Mother and Quan Jingmo have long been severed, but they maintain superficial work on weekdays. Now that the Queen Mother is old, and her most beloved son and lover are dead, she just wants to make a last stand.
"But how does this explain this note?"
Ku Zetao took this note with crooked handwriting and wondered: This thing should have been done quietly, why did Mama Lin reveal it.
"This note, literally, is threatening Shu, but looking deeper, it is secretly helping, she is reminding Shu that someone is going to kill Shu on Chinese New Year's Eve."
The words on this note are hard to hear, but the essence is to help each other in secret.
"Mama Lin writes with her left hand, but the handwriting of this note is written with her right hand judging from the pause of the ink, so this can explain why the handwriting of this note is crooked, which is obviously because she doesn't want others to know her identity."
Ku Zetao looked at it carefully, and it was indeed so.
"Mama Lin is my nurse. Since I was a child, I didn't get my mother's care in the East Palace, and it was Mama Lin who brought me up single-handedly, as if she were her own. Back then, when Quan Wanzun practiced sword with me in the palace and had a murderous intention, it was Mama Lin who worked hard to act as a sword for the defenseless me. ”
Although Mama Lin is valued by the Queen Mother Lin Wanyi, she also loves Quan Jingmo very much.
It seems that Mama Lin can't bear to die of Jing Mo. (To be continued.) )
