Chapter Seventy-Three: Where to Go
The two men were very cautious, and stayed in an inn outside the palace until dark before acting. Bian Yi followed them, but went all the way to the palace of King Lu. Bian Yi felt strange, why did they also go to King Law's Mansion, could it be that King Law really had something to do with the queen's disappearance?
The three of them sneaked into the palace one after the other, the whole house was quiet, Bian Yi followed the two people to investigate everywhere in the palace, and when they walked to the door of Princess Lu's room, they vaguely heard someone inside, so the two stood in the northwest corner and eavesdropped inside, and Bian Yi stood in the southwest corner to eavesdrop, so that they could not only hear the conversation in the room, but also monitor these two people.
Gently, someone in the room sighed, and a little maid persuaded, "Princess, it's late at night, you should rest." ”
"How can I sleep, the prince actually hid the queen in the mansion, and I still want to ······ Now he sent the queen to the Qinglou, if it is known, our entire palace will have to be buried together, how can you tell me not to worry. ”
"Isn't that already sending people away? No one will know, don't worry too much, princess. ”
Is it the Queen? Bian Yi's nerves tensed, and when he heard the word Qinglou, his heart sank involuntarily, if it was really the queen and was sent to the brothel of Qinglou, the consequences would be really unimaginable. It's just that the queen was sent to which brothel, where to find out? It seems that he has to go back and report to the emperor before making a decision.
Seeing that the two turned to leave, Bian Yi didn't stay any longer and went back to the palace to resume his life.
"What, do you suspect that the queen was sent to the Qinglou by Huangfu Jingbian?" When Huangfu Jingwen heard the news, he was sitting in the dormitory of Guan Ju Palace, and there was not a single light in the dark room, and he drove out all the palace maids and eunuchs, and sat quietly in the darkness alone, thinking about the people he had missed for a few days. The hand unconsciously grasped the silk sheets woven by Suzhou on the bed, but with such a gentle pinch, the sheets were wrinkled. With a big hand, all the things on the bed were thrown to the ground.
"The emperor is angry, Xu Weichen heard it wrong, how dare King Lu be so bold?" Even if he couldn't see the emperor's expression clearly, Bian Yi could feel the emperor's monstrous anger at the moment, which made this hot summer night even more unbearable.
"Check, and quickly, doesn't it already explain everything if the Queen Mother's people go to his house to find someone? I really didn't expect that he would be so bold as to dare to hide the queen and want to do something wrong. I don't have time to clean him up now, and when I find the Queen, I'll let him know what the consequences will be. "Just now it was still a fiery rage, but now it is an ice-like slaughter, Bian Yi knows that the emperor does what he says, and the days of the emperor's respect for the border are not a few days away.
Just thinking about what the fate of Huangfu Jingbian will be, I heard the emperor continue: "Since Huangfu Jingbian has sent the queen to the Qinglou, you will go to the capital to find it one by one, and there is no need to search for the big doors, the more luxurious, lively, and dignitaries gather, the more unlikely it is for the queen to be there, if she shows up, it will be easy to be recognized by the powerful and important ministers, but it is a bad thing, no matter how stupid the Huangfu Jingbian is, he will not make such an arrangement." ”
"Weichen understands, let's do it." Bian Yi disappeared quietly and without a trace, just like when he came. Closing the door of the dormitory, Bian Yi sighed, the emperor's feelings for the queen are terrible, if the queen is really defiled by others, the emperor is afraid that the emperor will wash the capital in blood to vent his anger, and the first one who will be unlucky is the emperor Jingbian.
Xiang Wan, where did you go? Huangfu Jingwen got up and walked in the dormitory in the dark, without his eyes, with all his hands, as if he could still pretend that Chu Xiangwan was not missing. Suddenly, he touched a shelf, and felt it carefully, it was a set of clothes, hanging smoothly on a cross-shaped shelf, and he didn't need to look at it to know that this was the queen's dress that Xiang Wan tried on a few days ago, and it was the clothes that should be worn by Xiang Wan on the day of the canonization ceremony to accept the envy of the people of the world, but now it is hanging here alone, and it has lost its luster without anyone in the world looking at it, and the cause of all this is just because her master is gone, and the skin will be attached without hair, which is really not wrong at all. Xiang Wan, the corners of Huangfu Jingwen's mouth pulled up a mocking smile, without you, no matter how amazing the costume is, it has no value of existence.
The clothes rubbed in his hand for a long time and there was a trace of temperature, but Huangfu Jingwen's hand suddenly stopped, he remembered that Chu Xiangwan wore this dress to him that day, and kept him to take care of himself, could it be - Xiang Wan knew that he would leave early in the morning? How could it be, why didn't she tell someone who was going to be bad for her early on? Could it be that she left the palace voluntarily? No, she won't be so ruthless, even if she doesn't love him anymore, even if her heart is full of Huangfu Jingyao, for the sake of Kai'er, she won't leave. But why is that? Thinking about it again will only drive people crazy, so Huangfu Jingwen threw away the queen's dress in his hand and strode out of the hall.
Originally, Huangfu Jingwen should not have come to Cihe Palace at this time, but his mind was full of questions, and he was eager to get answers from the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has already rested, if you want to see it, let the old slave go in first and report it!" Mama Li didn't dare to stop Huangfu Jingwen, and she was afraid of disturbing the Queen Mother's bed, so she followed Huangfu Jingwen all the way to stop it, and it was not okay not to stop it, which seemed very cramped.
"What's the matter?" Before Huangfu Jingwen knocked on the door, the candle flame in the Queen Mother's bedroom was already lit.
"Mother, it's me."
"Come in."
"Queen Mother, why did the queen leave the palace?" As soon as the emperor stepped through the door, he asked.
"The emperor's question is ridiculous, how can the mourning family know, it is difficult to say that she may want to escape from the palace."
"Queen Mother, there are some things that might as well open the skylight and say something bright, I know that you got her away, but why is this, do you hate her so much?" Huangfu Jingwen really didn't understand why the Queen Mother was like this.
"Yes, the mourning family hates her, and she hates her mother, she snatched away the filial and obedient son of the mourning family, and seeing that she will rob the world of the Great Zhou in the future, can the mourning family not hate?!" The Queen Mother suddenly broke out, since this son wants to find out, she will find out with him.
"When the queen mother says this, she admits that you did it." Huangfu Jingwen suddenly said this result that he had known for a long time in a tone that could not have been more affirmative.
"The mourning family did not admit anything, the emperor has evidence to come up with, and even if the mourning family is not the queen mother, he will be convinced. However, the mourning family wants to remind the emperor that if there is this time to argue with the mourning family here, it is better to send more people to find someone, in case Chu Xiangwan is sent to some unclean place to do something dirty and dirty, the emperor knows that even if this person is found, it will be useless. It was completely a gloating tone, the Queen Mother also knew that Chu Xiangwan was sent to the land of fireworks, she was overjoyed when she heard the report from the person who came back, this Emperor Fu Jingbian did things exactly in her arms, Chu Xiangwan's temperament seems to be docile but is actually strong, if she is really defiled by others, she will break it first, and at that time, it will not be her sin as the Queen Mother. It just kills two birds with one stone, which is better than sending Chu Xiangwan away.
Huangfu Jingwen came with anger, but was sobered up by the queen mother's words, he really shouldn't be here to discuss with the queen mother whether she sent Xiang Wan out of the palace, because there is no point in pursuing these now, the top priority is to get Xiang Wan back, although the Queen Mother's words are not good, but she is not wrong, if Xiang Wan is really ······ Then she really has only one way to die.
