The hateful son sneezed.

That's right, although he smoothly climbed over the wall and entered the Yonghe Palace and met Concubine Yu, the emperor was not able to stay in the Yonghe Palace for the night. It's not because the pregnant woman who is going to give birth is not as soft as before, and it's not because Concubine Yu is hypocritical and doesn't leave him overnight, but because ...... Yiyan pointed out that there was really no need for their mother and son to argue, and the emperor was blamed for another thing.

"The emperor said such excessive things, and left the prince in Qingning Palace, and he was still hanging around in the palace, and even stayed in the palace of the palace concubine, so for the queen mother, isn't this a son who has been raised for nothing for decades? If I had worked hard to give birth to such a son in October, then I would only hate myself for not strangling him to death when I was born! ”

I was scolded! The emperor touched his nose and thought of the past again. At first, when the husband and wife were in love and harmony, the queen would be happy, sad or angry, all of which would be revealed on her face, so she was very rarely active, but when she was irritable and suspicious, she was often yin and yang, and if there was anything not good to say, she had to be ridiculed in a roundabout way, so he became more and more alienated from her.

And the rest of the concubines were either cautious or sincerely afraid in front of him, and Concubine Yu ...... She dared to scold him! Compared to today's harsh-sounding rebuke, when people pointed their noses and scolded him, it was much more intense than this time. At that time, people seemed to be scolding him...... A lascivious and undaring faint gentleman?

It was at that time that he learned that the queen actually killed a palace man who had answered him in the West Garden for no reason. God knows that he didn't have a lustful mind at all, and he didn't even remember what the people in that palace looked like, but he ended up burying a life. Even as the Son of Heaven, many people's heads fell to the ground as a result of his pen, but that time was different.

It was something he couldn't bear! It was after that time that he had a big quarrel with the queen and really broke up.

Hua Qi, who was not far behind the emperor, put his hands in his sleeves, and wrapped him tightly in a black coat, as if he wanted to hide the whole person in the night. However, he hoped that the emperor would forget that he was one with the night, but he didn't expect that the emperor didn't forget it at all, but suddenly asked without looking back: "Do you think I should go to Qingning Palace to apologize to the Queen Mother?" ”

I can't live this day, and I have to ask me about this kind of fatal thing, I might as well stay in the Zhao Guogong Mansion as my idler! Hua Qi sighed angrily, but said nonchalantly: "The emperor can go if he wants to, and if he doesn't want to go, he won't go." ”

This is tantamount to saying nothing. However, when the emperor heard this, he did not get angry, because this was the truth. But he didn't want to go...... But in fact, I knew that I should go. He heard the sound of a watchman and a rattle bell in the distance, but the men tacitly avoided his path as if clairvoyance were following the wind.

At least, he came out of Qianqing Palace to Yonghe Palace, and then came out of Yonghe Palace to Qingning Palace on the way, but he didn't meet half a figure. If the garrison in the palace is really so lax...... Then, the palace has become an ordinary house where thieves can run rampant. So, he couldn't help but tilt his head slightly and ask, "How did you do it?" ”

If you have no head or brain, Hua Qi doesn't have any problems with understanding. He didn't even blink his eyelids, and then he said, "I sent a message to those royal servants with footsteps, asking them to tell people to avoid the place where the emperor is going." As for what kind of footsteps, this cannot be told to the emperor. ”

The Emperor fell silent. Although the imperial servant was the sharpest and last knife in the palace, as the emperor, he only used it and didn't practice it, so it was really unnecessary to ask so much. But after the mysterious death of the mother and son, he only felt that as the emperor, there were too many unclear places, not to mention the world, even in the palace.

Therefore, he suddenly stopped, and then turned around: "You go to Qingning Palace, let Yuquan tell the Queen Mother, and say that I know that I am wrong, and I will go to Fengxian Hall to ask the first emperor for guilt!" ”

Seeing that the emperor left his words and left, Hua Qi wanted to chase, but after only two steps to follow, he thought of this character who has always said that the wind is the rain, and after he really made a decision, the seven cows couldn't pull it back. So, he could only cough heavily helplessly, and only after someone flashed out in the shadows not far away and hurriedly stepped forward, he gave an angry order.

"Escort the emperor to the Fengxian Palace. No, it's not an escort, it's a long way to follow, don't go up to find death! ”

When Hua Qi, who had to leave the emperor, finally saw Yuquan and relayed that sentence, he saw that the chief female official of Qingning Palace had a gloomy face as if it were on the eve of a storm. He took a step back without thinking, and then coughed dryly and said: "If you want to scold, just scold, anyway, the emperor is not here, whatever you want!" He has already gone to Fengtian Hall to cry for the first emperor, what else should he do? ”

"Phew, what are you crying for the first emperor, he has no face to see the queen mother!" Yuquan had a rigid face, and he was really angry, "If the Queen Mother wants to see the eldest lady, he will stop him, and say that to the Queen Mother like that, leaving the prince to leave by himself, but now he has to go to Fengxian Palace...... What is he trying to do? In turn, he cried to the first emperor and complained that the queen mother was unreasonable? ”

"You ask me, who do I ask!"

Hua Qiyi spread his hands, never mentioning that it was Concubine Yu who scolded the emperor, and after the emperor came out, he chose to go to Fengtian Palace. Even if the Queen Mother is angry, Yuquan, the person around her, is even more angry, but when she learns about this experience, she will definitely not feel that Concubine Yu is reasonable, but maybe she will feel that the emperor is heavy on color and light on filial piety.

So, after throwing off these irresponsible six words, Hua Qi ran away: "As for the eldest lady, I'll go and deliver the letter, you tell the queen mother, don't worry about her." "Actually, with Zhang Shou here, he didn't have to worry about Zhu Ying, but he didn't want to stay in the palace tonight no matter what, this is really too dangerous, and he has to lose his life!

Not to mention how Hua Qi escaped from the palace as quickly as possible, Yuquan looked at this guy with an expressionless face and climbed over the wall instead of taking the right path, and couldn't help but stare at the tall Qingning Gate, and couldn't help cursing this guy who behaved exactly like the emperor in his heart, but after all, he turned around and left.

Although she was very reluctant to tell the Queen Mother the news, and even hoped that the two grandparents and grandchildren who were talking and had a good atmosphere had already fallen asleep, it was a pity that when she came to the door of the dormitory again, she could still hear the Queen Mother's rare peaceful and happy voice, as well as the three princes' questioning, echoing and exclamation without the slightest sleepiness.

Why didn't she find out that this little third prince was really a very sensible child? If she knew, she would have been a little nicer to this little one......

Thinking of these digressions, she finally stepped forward, and then coughed lightly, and found that the conversation in it paused slightly, and she said: "Queen Mother, His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor has gone to the first palace." ”

Beside the Queen Mother, the third prince who had unconsciously burrowed into the quilt was stunned for a moment, and then immediately followed, and the person got up in shock. Fengxian Hall is a place to worship ancestors, of course he won't know it, and what his father is doing there, how can he be so slow that he can't guess?

He subconsciously lifted the quilt, and was about to rush out without even caring about wearing his shoes, but the queen mother grabbed the collar quickly. He only struggled twice, and the Queen Mother behind him smiled and said, "What, worried about your father?" How old is he, and he still needs to worry about your little guy? ”

"He used to be like this, and when he had nothing to do, he often went to the Fengxian Hall to sit all night. I told the ministers that he was going to reflect on the first emperor and coax them away, but I know that where he is reflecting, he simply feels that he has been wronged, so he ran to complain to the first emperor! It's no wonder that the first emperor liked him the crown prince the most, and he doted on him more than me. ”

The three princes were so shocked that it was hard to recall. It turns out that his father's tough and powerful personality will also complain to others? And is it to the already dead Emperor Ruizong? At that moment, he felt that the image of his father, who had always been as great as a god in his mind, seemed to collapse a little bit......

If the emperor knew that his act of going to sit in the Fengxian Hall all night had inadvertently had some kind of counterproductive effect, then ...... He will definitely go to the temple and continue to sit. After all, it was really difficult for him to go to Qingning Palace to apologize to the Queen Mother at three o'clock, but it was an image problem in his son's mind, which was nothing at all.

And he didn't expect that Hua Qi would sneak out of the palace so carelessly and visit Zhang Yuan again in the middle of the night.

This time the person walked through the main gate very openly, so after the porter reported all the way in, Ah Liu, who is not often on vigil in person, had to immediately get out of the warm quilt, and when he appeared in front of people, although he was not covered with severe frost, but at least he would never have a good face: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Of course, I'll report to the eldest lady!"

I was so killed that I couldn't sleep at night, and at this time I came to disturb others' good sleep, but Hua Qi looked full of righteousness: "It's okay for you to go and tell me on my behalf, I'm already sleepy, I'll go back to sleep when I'm done!" ”

Regardless of whether Ah Liu agreed or not, Hua Qi straightforwardly explained the ins and outs of those things in the palace as quickly as possible, and then he didn't care whether Ah Liu understood or not, he yawned and waved his hand: "Okay, I'll bring the words, and my task is complete." I'll see you soon! ”

People come and go faster, although Ah Liu was angry in his heart and wanted to stop people, but after hesitating and hesitating, he didn't shoot casually in the end.

It's not because Zhang Shou said that Hua Qi is still a little stronger than him now, but because he knows how despicable and shameless this person is...... Of course, it may also cause him a lot of trouble.

So, although he was very reluctant to disturb Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying, he still quietly came to the door of their room, but he didn't knock on the door, nor did he prick up his ears to listen to any movement inside, but coughed intentionally first, thinking that if there was no movement, then he wouldn't bother them.

However, his cough, which was obviously very low, got a soft sigh from Zhu Ying inside: "Hey, is Ah Liu outside the door?" Is there news in the palace? Wait, I'll come out...... Ah Shou, why are you stopping me! ”

Realizing that Zhu Ying really didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, Ah Liu couldn't help but hesitate slightly, and then heard Zhang Shou's voice again: "Ah Liu, if you have something to say, come in and say, Yingying is a person who can't hide things in her heart, if there is no news from her, even if I appease her, she will probably rush to the palace regardless of it." ”

Hearing Zhu Ying's coquettish and Zhang Shou's soothing voice coming from inside, Ah Liu finally pushed the door gently, and sure enough, he found that the door was not locked at all. Knowing that this was so that he could come in and report at any time, he finally stepped over the threshold and entered, and then closed the door with his backhand, but only took a few steps forward, and stopped at a long distance from the screen in front of the bed.

Then, of course, he went word for word about the things that had just been reported by Hua Qifeng. Although he heard Zhu Ying's exclamation several times during the period, it was obvious that Zhang Shou on the side didn't know what method to use, so he didn't let her interrupt him, so he simply finished it in one breath.

"I see, in the middle of the night, he really worked hard." Zhang Shou sighed softly from behind the screen, and then said with a smile, "Although the emperor didn't go to Qingning Palace, he can go to Fengxian Palace, which has already shown his attitude." Moreover, with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Qingning Palace, you don't have to worry about Yingying. ”

Hearing Zhu Ying's soft voice behind the screen, Ah Liu knew that his task had been completed, and of course he would not stay longer, so he coughed again and said, "The madman left his words and ran away, then I will also retire." ”

"Rest early, tomorrow you busy man still have things to do."

Zhang Shou ordered with a smile, and when he heard the sound of Ah Liu's deliberately heavy footsteps in the outer room gradually moving away, and when the door was closed, there was even the sound of the door latch being lowered, and he knew that it was the young man who was aware of the small means on purpose. It wasn't until this moment that he let go of his wife in his arms, and sure enough, he got a scolding.

"Ah Shou, are you trying to suffocate me! I wasn't going to say anything, I just wanted to ask if Uncle Hua was still there......"

"If so, call him in and ask him again? He just knew your temper, so he asked Ah Liu to tell him that he had hid cleanly. He probably sneaked out of the palace to hide from something, and he didn't just report to you. Although Zhang Shou said that he didn't know Hua Qi as well as Zhu Ying, he, a bystander, saw this matter more clearly today.

"Regardless of whether the death of the eldest prince will continue to be investigated, this matter will probably end here on the surface. Even if he was a Confucian scholar, after looking back and knowing it, he probably hoped that the eldest prince would commit suicide by relying on medicine, rather than being drugged and killed, otherwise he would not be negligent, but guilty. Speaking of this, Zhang Shou smiled and rubbed Zhu Ying's frowning eyebrows.

"He will do his best to make the coffin of the eldest prince as soon as possible. Of course, I'm more curious about one more thing. ”
