Chapter 289: Leaving Beijing

Qi Hongxin hurried to Qinxi Palace, and found that Ye Zixi had been put into the Nanmu coffin by the palace people, and the maids all knelt in a row, and when they saw Qi Hongxin, they all kowtowed and pleaded: "Please atone for the emperor's sins, it was the slaves and maids who were negligent." ”

Qi Hongxin walked in front of Ye Zixi's coffin, looking at Ye Zixi's usual beautiful face, dressed as usual, except for the neck, there was a strangulation mark.

Qi Hongxin looked at Ye Zixi and muttered, "Mother, after more than 20 years, are you finally willing to face your sincerity?" ”

Qingping asked: "Your Majesty, the funeral of this concubine is with the emperor's, what do you think of this?" ”

Qi Hongxin said: "Everything about the concubine is simple, and she is in the same cave as the emperor. ”

Qingping said: "Your Majesty, this is not in line with the rules, since ancient times, only the queen and the emperor can be in the same hole." ”

Qi Hongxin said coldly: "I am the emperor, I am the rule, this is what the emperor and the concubine want, if anyone has an opinion, let them come to me." ”

In the morning, when he went to the morning court, Qi Hongxin felt that his head hurt a little but he still insisted on going to the court.

Today's ministers are very honest, they didn't bother Qi Hongxin with any troubles, they all knew that the concubine had hanged herself this morning, who dared to come to find trouble at this moment?

So soon this morning dynasty was dispersed, Qingping finished speaking: "Retreat from the dynasty" helped Qi Hongxin into the imperial study, Qi Hongxin didn't take two steps but suddenly fainted, Qingping immediately helped people up, and saw that Qi Hongxin had fainted.

Qingping said to the little eunuch: "Go to the imperial doctor, remember, don't alarm too many people." ”

After the Imperial Physician Wang came to see it, Qingping asked, "Imperial Physician Wang, what's wrong with the emperor?" ”

Imperial Physician Wang was puzzled: "Father-in-law Qingping, the minister gave the emperor a pulse, she didn't do anything, it was like she was asleep." ”

Qingping said: "Nonsense, do you think the emperor looks like he's fine?" ”

Imperial Physician Wang said: "Father-in-law Qingping, it is true that the lower officials have taken the pulse. ”

Qingping said to the little eunuch: "Go to the queen mother, remember, don't let others find out, otherwise, you will screw your sack." ”

Immediately, the little eunuch went out, and when he arrived at the Wen Mansion, he found that the entire Wen Mansion was not there except for one gatekeeper, and the little eunuch knocked on the door and said, "Take me to the queen mother, the emperor invites the queen mother into the palace." ”

The person guarding the door didn't know that Wen Ling was gone, so he took people to the small courtyard where Wen Ling was, and the little eunuch shouted at the door: "Queen Mother, there is an invitation in the palace." ”

shouted several times, and the little eunuch found that not only did the queen mother not make a sound, but even the queen mother's personal maid did not see a figure.

The little eunuch could only step forward and knock on the door, who knew that the hand just touched the door and opened it by itself, the little eunuch hurriedly went in to see, the whole room was empty, where was there anyone?

The little eunuch asked anxiously, "What about the queen mother?" Where did the queen go? ”

The gatekeeper was also stunned: "Father-in-law, the minions are not qualified to come to this backyard on weekdays, so the minions don't know." ”

The little eunuch said, "It's over, it's over, it's a big deal." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly returned to the palace and said to Qingping: "When the slave went to the Guogong Mansion, he didn't see the queen mother, and the slave also found that the queen mother took everything in her room with her. ”

Qingping secretly said that it was not good, and immediately said: "Go and call Commander Wu Cheng over." ”

After Wu Cheng came, Qingping told Commander Wu about the seriousness of Qi Hongxin's fainting, Wu Cheng nodded and said that he knew, Qingping immediately said: "Commander Wu, hurry, the queen must have returned to Jiangnan, I don't care what method you use, you must bring people back, Commander Wu, whether the emperor can wake up or not depends on you." ”

Wu Cheng ordered to leave the palace immediately, he went to the East City Gate closest to Wen Mansion, and asked the soldiers guarding the city, sure enough, the people here said that the queen mother went out of the capital in a carriage in the early morning.

Wu Cheng was anxious, early in the morning, it was almost noon now, and he didn't know where the queen had gone.

Now is not the time to think too much, Wu Cheng rode directly in the direction of Jiangnan.

Wu Cheng rode the best sweaty BMW, traveling thousands of miles a day, Wen Ling was sitting in a carriage here, and he was not in a hurry, so he naturally walked slower.

Xiaolian saw Wen Ling sullen and said, "Miss, if you are reluctant, let's go back, we haven't gone far, have we?" ”

Wen Ling shook his head: "Xiaolian, I'm not reluctant, I'm just thinking, we went to Jiangnan, where should we go, this Jiangnan is the territory of Wenfu, if we go, that group of people will not have to eat us alive?" ”

Xiaolian thought about it: "But Miss, where else can we go except to Jiangnan?" ”

Wen Ling said: "Don't worry, let's do it, let's pass by there along the way, we will stay where we like, okay?" ”

Xiaolian smiled and nodded: "Where Miss is, Xiaolian is there, as long as Miss is there, Xiaolian is willing to go wherever she goes." ”

At this time, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves from behind, listening to the sound, the people who were hurrying were still in a hurry, and when they got closer, they heard the people on horseback still shouting: "The queen mother, please stay, the queen mother, please stay." ”

Wen Ling lifted the curtain and looked, and saw that the person riding the horse turned out to be Wu Cheng, Wen Ling lowered the curtain and said to Zheng Hui: "Speed up." ”

Zheng Hui also flicked the horsewhip, the carriage suddenly accelerated, and Wen Ling and Xiaolian were both knocked around.

But no matter how fast this carriage is, how can it pass this bloody BMW? Sure enough, after a while, Wen Ling heard an urgent sound of reining in the horse.

Wu Cheng said: "The queen mother, please stay." ”

Wen Ling helped Xiaolian to sit down before going out, and asked, "I don't know what Commander Wu means?" You suddenly stopped the carriage and knocked the county lord into it, can you bear this responsibility? ”

Wu Cheng dismounted and pleaded: "Queen Mother, the lower officials have something important to look for you." ”

Wen Ling said: "Don't call me the queen mother, I'm not, Commander Wu should also look for the emperor if he has something important, what are you looking for me to do?" ”

Wu Cheng said: "Queen Mother, please also ask you to move, and the lower officials are looking for you, it is precisely because of the emperor's business." ”

Wen Ling got out of the carriage and followed Wu Cheng for a distance, Wu Cheng suddenly knelt down on one knee and said: "Queen Mother, please save the emperor, as long as you are willing to go back, you can do whatever you want, last time, the minister gave the queen a palm, as long as the queen mother is willing to go back to Beijing to save the emperor, the lower official can kill himself in front of you now." ”

Wen Ling said: "Don't tell me anything about whether you are dead or not, you tell me, what happened to the emperor?" Why did you come to me? ”

Wu Cheng said: "After the emperor finished the morning court today, he fainted as soon as he arrived at the imperial study. ”
