Chapter Eighty-Four: I Want to Check the False Edict
As Empress Guo's words fell, the attendants behind her rushed forward, seeing that they were about to rush into the Qianqing Palace, at this time, Li Xuanzhi shouted unhurriedly: "Queen Mother, this concubine advises you not to act rashly!" ”
Saying that, Li Xuanzhi paused and continued in a somewhat ridiculous tone: "You are a model of the harem, and you have always been a model in the hearts of the concubines, so the concubines imitated the method of the queen mother and burned the palace, and covered the Qianqing Palace with kerosene. ”
Empress Guo listened to Li Xuanzhi's words, trembling with anger, pointing at Li Xuanzhi and shouting angrily: "You ......" The word "you" just came out, she was in a hurry, her eyes were dark, and she fainted, fortunately Zhu Hao supported her behind her, otherwise she would have fallen directly on the hard stone steps of Qianqing Palace, and she would have to lose half her life if she didn't die.
With Empress Guo's sudden fainting, Zhu Hao stopped those Empress Guo's chamberlains who were about to rush into the Qianqing Palace, he didn't dare to bet, if this Li Xuanzhi really ignited the Qianqing Palace, then today he Zhu Hao will become an eternal sinner who forced the imperial brother to death!
Zhu Hao stopped those attendants, so he asked them to come over to help support Queen Guo, and then he glanced at Li Xuanzhi coldly, his eyes were full of threats and anger, he was warning Li Xuanzhi, but Li Xuanzhi didn't care about the threat in Zhu Hao's eyes, just snorted coldly, which was considered to be a response to Zhu Hao.
Seeing this, Zhu Hao was not in the mood to have any tongue with Li Xuanzhi at this moment, so he sent Empress Guo back to Kunning Palace to recuperate, and he personally went to Chuantai Hospital, and the Imperial Doctor went to Kunning Palace to treat Empress Guo, so Zhu Hao and his party all left Qianqing Palace.
After Zhu Hao took the imperial doctor to Kunning Palace, after some diagnosis and treatment by the imperial doctors, Queen Guo suddenly shouted angrily: "Slut! I'm mad at me! Then she gasped violently, slowly opened her eyes, her face was very pale, and it was obvious that her condition was not very good at the moment.
After Queen Guo woke up, the imperial doctor slowly withdrew from the room, Zhu Hao followed the imperial doctor out of the room, a little worried, and asked the imperial doctor: "How is the queen's phoenix body?" ”
The imperial doctor listened to Zhu Hao's inquiry, and replied cautiously: "Niangniang just turned her back on her anger just now, and there is no big problem, but Niangniang does not pay attention to maintenance all year round, her body is weak, and her liver is hot at this time. However, if Niangniang moves the liver fire again, causing a coma in a hurry, at that time, I am afraid that there will be a danger to my life, the fifth prince, you must persuade Niangniang more, don't get angry easily. ”
Zhu Hao listened to the words of the imperial doctor, agreed repeatedly, and sent the imperial doctor out, and said in his heart: "It's okay, otherwise, at this time of turmoil, if Queen Guo can't afford to be sick again, then he will really be alone at this moment, and when the time comes, let Concubine Zheng's treacherous plan succeed, he will not only be sorry for his father, who loves him, but also let himself and his mother, and Queen Guo and his eldest brother, be in danger of their lives!" ”
Zhu Hao thought about these things in his heart, so after sending off the imperial doctor, he returned to the room, and when he arrived at Empress Guo's bed, he asked in a low voice: "Queen Mother, how do you feel now?" That Li Xuanzhi is just a villain, the queen mother doesn't have to be angry with him, now that the father has just left, there is internal and external turmoil, everything depends on the mother to stabilize the situation, you must not fall ill! Take care of your phoenix! ”
Empress Guo listened to Zhu Hao's words, sighed faintly and said, "Where is this palace angry with that Li Xuanzhi!" Hongu is angry with himself! I was angry that I hated because of jealousy for a while, and I did the ridiculous thing of setting fire to the palace, and I set a bad example in the palace! This palace is worthy of being the queen, not worthy of the mother's honor in the world! After saying that, Queen Guo coughed violently, obviously very excited at the moment.
Zhu Hao was immediately frightened when he saw this, thinking about what the imperial doctor said just now, he hurriedly comforted: "Queen Mother, to put it bluntly, this matter is just a gambling behavior between you and your father and the emperor, husband and wife, Li Xuanzhi just said that in front of the Qianqing Palace, she has ulterior motives, that is, she is deliberately angry with the queen mother, the queen mother, you must not fall for her, everything must be taken care of first!" ”
Empress Guo listened to Zhu Hao's words, and sighed again: "It's rare that you are so sensible, this palace was still so kind to you before, this palace is sorry for you!" Don't hold a grudge against this palace, at that time, this palace was really blinded by jealousy, as soon as your father left like this, this palace repented, but unfortunately it was too late, and your father could never wake up again!" As Queen Guo spoke, tears slid down her eyes.
Seeing this, Zhu Hao hurriedly took out the silk handkerchief he was carrying, gently wiped away the tears for Queen Guo, and then continued to comfort: "The queen mother, thunder, rain and dew, are all heavenly graces, the sons have never blamed the queen mother, don't think nonsense, take care of your body!" ”
Although Zhu Hao's words were a bit against his will, he did hate Queen Guo very much, but after experiencing Chun Tao's narration, and hearing Queen Guo's true feelings at this moment, he had completely put all the resentment towards Queen Guo in the past out of his mind.
For Empress Guo at this time, Zhu Hao no longer has the slightest resentment, he just hopes now that this poor woman who was deeply hurt by her father can get better.
Empress Guo looked at Zhu Hao's sincere expression from the heart, bowed slightly, and continued with some unease: "The prince's matter is a little tricky at the moment, wait for the palace to get better, and then start to deal with it, don't act rashly first!" Now you go and find out, what is going on with the edict in the hands of Concubine Zheng, although the palace has not been with the emperor for a long time, but the palace believes that the emperor will definitely not leave such an edict! I hope you can find out about this matter as you did about the fire! ”
Listening to Queen Guo mention the fire case again, Zhu Hao scratched his head a little embarrassed at this time, the reason why Zhu Hao felt a little embarrassed was because it was he who found out about the fire case that completely broke the relationship between his father and Queen Guo.
But Zhu Hao also knew that now was the critical moment, not the time when he was embarrassed, let alone the time when he shirked politeness, so he hurriedly said: "Erchen takes the order!" Please rest assured that the queen mother must find out about this matter! ”
Zhu Hao looked at Queen Guo's face, which became more and more pale, knowing that Queen Guo should have a good rest, so he said after Queen Guo bowed slightly: "Erchen, please take care of the queen mother, take care of the phoenix body!" Erchen retired first! After the sons find out the truth, they will report to the queen mother! After finishing speaking, Zhu Hao slowly withdrew from the room and left Kunning Palace.
After Zhu Hao left Kunning Palace, thinking about what Empress Guo had told him, he had to think of a person, who was either someone else or the only detective-type talent in his hands, and now he has been appointed by him as the Central Intelligence Department, temporarily leading Gongsun Ce, who is in charge of affairs. Zhu Hao knew in his heart that he had to send Gongsun Ce to investigate this matter before it was possible to find out the truth, so thinking like this, he asked his attendant to inform Gongsun Ce and let him come to his bedroom to see him.
When Zhu Hao returned to his bedroom, Gongsun Ce was already waiting for him in his bedroom, he nodded slightly at Gongsun Ce and said, "Gongsun, you came so fast!" I didn't expect you to arrive at the dormitory before this prince! Could it be that you also learned the way of the intelligence department with the times? ”
Gongsun Ce naturally heard the ridicule in Zhu Hao's words, so he smiled slightly and said, "Weichen see His Highness!" Your Highness, don't ridicule Weichen, where is Weichen the material for learning martial arts! It's just that His Royal Highness called for Weichen, and Weichen had to arrive immediately! If you let His Highness wait for Wechen, it will be the sin of Wechen! ”
Listening to Gongsun Ce's words of such concern for the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, Zhu Hao couldn't help but nodded, and then opened his mouth to get down to business: "Gongsun, this prince won't go around the bend with you, this prince asked you to come over this time, and there are important things to be handed over to you to do!" This matter is about the country, you must not disappoint this prince! ”
Gongsun Ce listened to Zhu Hao's solemn words, and hurriedly saluted again: "Please instruct Your Highness, Weichen will do his best to do what His Highness has explained!" ”
Zhu Hao listened to Gongsun Ce say this, and even briefly described the true and false edicts to Gongsun Ce, and then asked Gongsun Ce: "Gongsun, how long will it take you to find out about this matter?" ”
Gongsun Ce listened to Zhu Hao's words, pondered for a while, and then said slowly with a difficult face: "Your Highness Qiqi, this matter is not a matter of time, but I am afraid that this matter is difficult to find out!" After all, before Emperor Daxing returned to heaven, there was only Concubine Zheng alone in the Qianqing Palace, even if Weichen could find some palace maids and eunuchs to prove that the edict in the hands of Concubine Zheng was fake, I am afraid she would not admit it, but would say that we bought the palace maid and eunuch to make false testimony, this matter in Weichen's opinion, there is no way to collect evidence, and there is no way to investigate! ”
Listening to the only detective under his hand say this, Zhu Hao couldn't help but feel a little disheartened, if even Gongsun Ce was helpless, then I'm afraid this matter is really impossible to investigate.
Thinking of this, Zhu Hao suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and secretly said in his heart: "That's not right! Empress Guo should have been grounded in Kunning Palace by Concubine Zheng after her father passed away, so what happened in Qianqing Palace before, Empress Guo should know, as long as Empress Guo proves it herself, saying that she has not seen the edict in the hands of Concubine Zheng. Why did Empress Guo let herself check whether the edict in the hands of Concubine Zheng was fake? ”
