The palace compound is full of scenery, whether it is winter frost, rain and snow or late summer, it is a beautiful scenery, and there are many large and small lakes or river shoals that have been artificially dug out of the palace.

There are many people who die in this water in such a large palace, and although they are always surprised, they are quickly suppressed by the superiors.

But this time, before everyone could be surprised or spread the news, they were given a death order by the emperor, and if anyone dared to chew their mouths one more time, then the end would be to go down to accompany the Persian goddess.

That's right, the goddess of Persia, Yedel ran out of breath after the guards fished people up, and this time the lake engulfed not an ordinary palace maid and eunuch, nor a pampered and proud beauty, but a princess of another country, and even more importantly, a goddess.

Fortunately, the emperor arrived here first, so he didn't spread the news outside, you must know that the 5,000 Persian soldiers who escorted the goddess here are still in the capital of the Xia Kingdom. Although it is only outside the city, if this news is used by someone with a heart, it will inevitably cause a big fluctuation in the capital.

In the Qinzheng Palace, it was late at night, but the emperor inside had not slept yet, only so late that there were still courtiers in the hall who had not come out.

The middle-aged emperor is very tired today, he supports his forehead with both hands, and his originally well-maintained face looks particularly haggard today.

At the bottom of the main hall is Ji Xiang, who stands with his head down, yes, Ji Xiang, the emperor of this big night recruited him into the palace to discuss the affairs of the Persian goddess after her death.

This Persian goddess also drowned herself in the lake, and it should not have been a matter of the Xia Kingdom, but why should she commit suicide, the words behind this are so deep.

People say that it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, but "family affairs" are now about to be related to state affairs, how can the emperor not break his heart.

"Ji Xiang!" The emperor raised his head and looked at the old minister standing below, this Ji Xiang was his right-hand man left to him by his father, and the things in this court were really a matter of asking a hundred things, but this time he asked, this Ji Xiang also shook his head again and again.

"The minister is here. The emperor and the ministers have all said that the prince may have gone too far, but no one wants to see this ending, according to the old minister's opinion, there are still two ways to go. Ji Xiang stretched out two fingers underneath, and the emperor looked at it and nodded, motioning for Ji Xiang to speak.

Although he had scolded Xia Shenke hundreds of times in his heart, the emperor still couldn't bear to send him to the king of Persia to apologize, this was his own brother, how could he send it to someone else to be killed.

"The first is to send the body of Na Dai to Persia, and hide the cause of her death, so that this Ye Dai herself strayed into the lake, and when she caught it, she was out of gas." After Ji Xiang finished speaking, he looked up and glanced at the expression of the head of the person, and the look of disapproval was only the second one.

"Second, I want to wronged the prince, hide the corpse, and find someone who looks like Na Daier, and hold a wedding like this. So as long as we hide it well, the Persian prince will not be able to find it for the rest of our lives. "No matter how much the king of Persia loves his daughter, he can't control the daughter who is already a wife.

After Ji Xiang finished speaking, there was silence in the hall again, and he could only hear the sound of the water leaking down and dripping down, and it was already three quarters now. Ji Xiang gently picked up his sleeve and covered his mouth, and secretly yawned underneath, really sleepy, when can the emperor let the old minister go back to sleep.

With a snap, the emperor swept down a sunken gold inkstone on the imperial table, and the ink on the inkstone that had not yet dried only smashed on the ground, but only broke a corner, and rolled to the side of Ji Xiang before stopping.

This frightened Ji Xiang, yawned deeply and held it back, and immediately shrank his old waist and fell to his knees. "The emperor is angry." The emperor asked him to find a way, he gave it all, why are you still so angry, is it because his method is not good? But now that people are dead, we can't bring him back to life, he really can't do it. He's the prime minister and he's not the god, can't you do it, don't be reluctant?

"Prime Minister hurry up, I'm not angry at you, I think of Xia Shenke who can only cause trouble and can't wipe his ass, I feel angry." How good is this Xia Shenke, let an emperor say such foul words in front of the prime minister, Ha is really a great imperial brother.

Only the current emperor grinds his teeth with hatred when he thinks of Xia Shenke, and he only hates his temperament, but it is cultivated by him, the emperor's good brother.

Xia Shenke was really raised by the emperor and the empress, and the emperor cared about him as his only sibling, and he didn't get much love from his parents since he was a child, so he put the best things in front of him. There was only what he didn't like, and there was never something he wanted but couldn't get.

is the emperor's own sons, no matter how much they pamper them, there is no one like Xia Shenke, and for Emperor Xia Shenke, there has always been thunder and rain.

Everyone in this Manchu Dynasty knew it, so when Ji Xiang saw the emperor say this, he just stood up calmly, but he was not a little frightened.

There are two ways, the emperor has not yet come and which one to choose, but Gonggong Cao has already hurriedly pushed the door in. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

"What's the big deal?" The emperor was already standing, which made him look more heroic, but the deep scar between his eyebrows made him not look as peaceful as usual at the moment, but the anger on his body increased a lot.

Gonggong Cao saw that Ji Xiang was also there, and when he saw the emperor asking him, he didn't dare to say anything. When the emperor saw his vomiting appearance, he was already angry, but now the fire just found a place to vent, his eyes swept around the table, and finally picked up a cinnabar pen and threw it at the door of Cao Gonggong's head.

The cinnabar pen poked at Grandpa Cao's head, and Grandpa Cao reacted again, touching it with his hand but touching a handful of red. Fortunately, he also saw that this was just the red of the cinnabar, not the bleeding of his head, the emperor had such an obvious hint, how could he not know it.

If this grinds and chirps again and provokes the emperor, then his brain will bleed next time. "Your Majesty, it was the guards who took care of the Persian goddess who came to report and said that it was ...... It is said that the body of the Persian goddess is missing. ”

"What? You tell me about it! The emperor walked around from the imperial table, lifted the collar of Gonggong Cao, and Gonggong Cao was mentioned by the emperor like this, and his foot left the ground, but he didn't dare to pounce. Sure enough, he said it clearly, "The body of the Persian goddess is gone, and the guards who are guarding the temple say that in the blink of an eye, the body is gone." ”

Gonggong Cao's words surprised the two people who were originally in this diligent palace, what is the corpse gone, how could the corpse be gone?

"You told me clearly, why is it gone?" The emperor can only say that he is about to run away at this moment, and such a thing is joking with him.

Then it was suddenly gone, and a gust of wind blew out all the candles in the temple, and then when the guards lit the candles again, the body of the Persian priestess was gone. The old slave didn't know the specific situation, but the guards in charge of the hall all said so. "Father-in-law Cao picked himself up with this, and this is also the original hall that he didn't look at, and it is not good to guard a corpse, and it is also a matter for those guys who don't have long heads.

The emperor frowned, let go of his hand, and bypassed Gonggong Cao, waving his hand to signal him to go down, Gonggong Cao saw that the emperor did not mean to punish him, and he immediately got up from the ground.

"Ji Xiang, what do you look at is the so-called ghost and god, or is it ...... "person"?

"Your Majesty, there have been legends of ghosts and gods in the world since ancient times, but the minister thinks that the ghosts and gods are too absurd, that is, what is the use of the ghosts and gods asking for a corpse. So we should still worship the ghosts and gods and stay away, didn't Gonggong Cao say just now, when the corpse was gone, all the lights in the hall were extinguished, although it was only for a moment, but if it was someone with a heart, then it would be enough to arrange it well. Although Ji Xiang also felt that the matter was absurd when he first heard it, this matter could not stand scrutiny, as long as he investigated it carefully, there would definitely be suspicions.

“…… Then leave this matter to Ji Xiang, first go and check if the girl named Shama Guoer who was serving with Ye Dai'er is still there, if this is not there. There must be people who should be in harmony with the outside, and as for Emperor Zhena, he will take good care of Ji Xiang. After the Emperor finished speaking, he went to the back of the imperial table.

"Yes, I will do my best." Ji Xiang really wanted to wipe his sweat, he was not afraid of the sentence that made him investigate the case at the beginning, but the latter sentence, asking him to take good care of the little prince scared Ji Xiang out of sweat. Heaven and earth prove that he really didn't tell Xia Shenke about Xia Shenke's affairs in the Ji Mansion, but he didn't know how the emperor knew.

But I don't think it's a big secret when I know it, there are so many secret guards around the emperor, send one or two to squat in her Ji Mansion, naturally I know everything. It's just that the emperor only asked him to take good care of the little prince, but he didn't mention anything about Zisu at all, didn't the emperor know that Zisu was pregnant?

Ji Xiang decided to pretend to be deaf and dumb, even if the emperor didn't pull it out, then he didn't take the initiative to say it, this is the way he summed up as a minister after he became a veteran of the two dynasties.

After coming out of the Qinzheng Palace, Gonggong Cao led a group of little eunuchs in, just now the emperor dropped an inkstone, and threw a cinnabar pen, but he had to go first to clean it, and then take out the replacement from the inner library. Now the emperor has a big temper, let alone speak loudly, even if he gasps heavily, they don't have the guts.
