Chapter 842: The Messenger
The envoy returned to the capital, handed in the paperwork, and waited at home for Qi Yuan's summons, but he was very busy every day during this time, and he forgot about him for a while.
The envoy was really depressed when he stayed at home, he had something in his heart, and he was thinking about it every day, and finally at a court meeting not long ago, he inquired carefully about the matter of the queen's mother, and he needed to make up his mind at the moment and asked to see the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Lord Liu has been a little abnormal these days, and after going down to court, he always inquired about the queen's mother."
"Which Lord Liu?" Qi Yuan thought for a while, but was not impressed.
"The envoy who sent an envoy to Shuzhou a few days ago."
Gonggong Hong didn't think much about it, and answered directly, any matter about the queen's mother, must be decided by the emperor himself.
"Oh, what did he inquire about the Queen's mother?"
"It's not clear what he's trying to do, it's just quite vague. Now he handed over the fold and asked to see him, did the emperor see it or not? ”
Qi Yuan nodded slightly and let the man in.
"See my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."
"Flatten! What is Aiqing looking for? ”
"The minister doesn't know whether to talk about something or not."
"About the Queen?"
Qi Yuan just glanced at him, and then put his gaze back on the fold in his hand. It's just this glance that makes Lord Liu feel cold all over his body.
"Yes."
Lord Liu bowed down and said, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it.
"Tell me about it."
Lord Liu swallowed his saliva, and immediately said: "The minister has seen the queen mother in Shuzhou, and the queen mother is fine, but ......"
"If you have something to say, I don't like to babble like this."
This Lord Liu didn't mean to do this, but it was really hard to speak, after all, what he overheard was not confirmed, and he really didn't dare to believe it, so he immediately knelt down and said: "The emperor also asks for forgiveness for the rudeness of the old minister, this matter is really not done by a gentleman." Chancellor is not the kind of person who likes to talk about people behind his back. ”
Before Lord Liu's words were finished, Qi Yuan's face turned cold, and a series of speculations flashed in his mind at the moment, maybe Lord Liu saw something that he shouldn't have seen in Shuzhou, so he didn't dare to say it to himself, but if this was the case, he should have honestly hidden it in his heart, and now making this way made Qi Yuan's heart even more uncomfortable.
What's more, Qi Yuan can trust Yin Qingqi, even if this person wants to arrange the matter between him and Xue Tan, he will not believe it, but he still intends to say, it seems that there must be someone behind this, and he decided at the moment that no matter what he says for a while, he will not immediately punish him, but to observe carefully, see who he has been in contact with during this time, and must catch all these people.
"Where is Aiqing, Aiqing's character can still be trusted."
Lord Liu's heart relaxed slightly, and he didn't think carefully about the meaning of Qi Yuan's words, so he said slowly: "The matter has not been confirmed, and I don't know whether I should tell the emperor or not, but this kind of thing still has to be said
Sinful. ”
Qi Yuan said patiently again: "After all, Aiqing is for my good, and I can still distinguish these things." ”
"The minister occasionally heard that the queen mother was pregnant, but the person who said this was not a doctor, but a woman named Feng Chime. But looking at the expression of the queen mother, it seems that she has known about this for a long time. ”
"What?"
Qi Yuan only felt a thunderbolt sounding in his head, and he didn't understand what this person meant, and he was ready to listen to him slander Yin Qingqi, but now what did he mean by this?
Is it said that Qingqi has a child with someone else?
No, he didn't mean that.
Qi Yuan was stunned in place, the sweat on Lord Liu's face became more and more, just looking at the emperor's expression, he knew that he shouldn't know about this matter, and he felt that it was over, even the emperor didn't know about this matter, could it be that there was something else involved in this, and he entered it unintentionally?
"Say it again, and give me a detailed description of what happened."
Lord Liu swallowed his saliva and relayed to Qi Yuan what he heard them say at the door when he first met the queen mother.
Qi Yuan stood up, walked around twice with his hands behind his back, his thoughts turned a thousand times in his heart, and he suddenly laughed, the smile was unusually gentle and warm, like the warm sun in March, looking a little dazzling.
"Have you told anyone about this?"
Lord Liu immediately shook his head and said: "I have never told others, this matter is related to the heir of my Heavenly Dynasty, and its importance is still clear, after returning to Beijing, I have been anxious, waiting for the emperor to summon me, and I have never had too much intersection with others, but I have inquired with the palace attendants about the recent situation of the queen mother before leaving the palace." ”
"You're doing a good job, and you must not let anyone know about it."
"I understand. It's just that I don't know if this matter is true or false, if it's just the girl's rumors, this matter is to deceive the emperor, so the minister didn't dare to tell the emperor at the first time. ”
Qi Yuan sighed, looked Lord Liu up and down, and said, "Then why did you say it again now?" ”
"Yesterday, the minister went to the Rejuvenation Hall, and saw that the attending doctor inside said that he was replaced, and immediately felt that this matter might be related to the queen's mother, and casually chatted with the shopkeeper, and saw that they seemed to be a little nervous, so I was seventy percent sure."
At this time, the joy in Qi Yuan's heart had gradually cooled, and he glanced at the person in front of him playfully and said, "Aiqing is really cautious, you don't have to investigate this matter anymore." ”
"Yes."
Lord Liu vaguely heard the emperor's anger, and immediately understood that he seemed to have done something wrong, so he lowered his head and immediately admitted his mistake.
"Stand down."
Qi Yuan said lightly, motioning to Gonggong Hong to send him out, and mention him by the way. Such a person, if he has been putting his mind on managing the country, he can be regarded as a usable person, but if he uses his mind elsewhere, it will be a disaster for the Celestial Empire.
Gonggong Hong smiled and helped Master Liu up, sent him out of the study, and said to him with a smile
"Lord Liu has made a great contribution this time, the emperor is thinking about the law and wants to persuade Niangniang to come back, so you gave an excuse, if it is a few days earlier, at this time, Niangniang should be in the capital soon." ”
Only a few faint words made Lord Liu's originally put down heart suddenly lift, and there was a cold sweat behind him, when he understood the voice of Father-in-law Hong.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. It was the lower officials who were too presumptuous and dared to investigate the queen's mother. ”
Gonggong Hong smiled and said: "Adults are too cautious, some things have to be done cautiously, and some things have to be sloppy. ”
Gonggong Hong patted Lord Liu's hand, and after that, he returned to the study, looking at Qi Yuan, who was originally quite happy, with a cold face at the moment, knowing that the emperor is still the emperor after all, but I am afraid that he is wondering why Niangniang didn't tell him about the child.
