92 The merchant demon comes
In front of Fengning Palace, after the "idle people" such as the big and small wives and sons retreated, the emperor fell to the side one by one, and was supported by the chief steward and father-in-law in time: "The emperor? ā
The emperor held one hand in front of his chest, saying that he was fine, he was still a little dizzy, and when he woke up, he immediately thought about how to block this matter, knowing that the prince had already helped him do it, he was still thinking about the prince's purpose, but after seeing that his big and small wives were making trouble outside Fengning Palace, he only felt that even if the prince had a purpose, it was much better.
"Prince, I've worked hard for you in this matter, I ......"
"Erchen understands that before the news was suppressed, Erchen had already spread another news, saying that you were poisoned, although it would cause a little panic, but as long as you appeared in front of everyone safe and sound, this panic was nothing, better than ......" It's better than you beating the Queen Mother because of your own heart problems.
No matter how much the news is suppressed, what is circulated will still be known, and it is the best way to cover it up with another news.
The emperor nodded: "The prince has handled this matter well, I have a reward, and if the prince wants, you can mention it to me." ā
"None of this matters, let's talk about it when my father is well, since my father has woken up, then the retainer will go back to the East Palace first, lesp," he smiled self-deprecatingly, "lest some people think that it is the retainer who controls the Fengning Palace and intends to do evil to you and the imperial grandmother." ā
"I want to see who else dares!" The emperor reprimanded heavily, and then slowed down his attitude and said to the prince, "You are not in good health, you have worked hard here for a day, go back and rest." ā
"Yes, the retainers are retired."
The emperor watched the crown prince walk away, pressed his forehead with his hand with a headache, and said to the chief manager: "Go back to the Zhengqian Palace, you send someone to tell the queen mother, and when she is better, I will come to ask her for guilt." ā
"Yes, the minion obeys."
Manager Chen, who said that he obeyed the order, did not move, and the emperor found out and asked, "Is there anything else?" ā
"Back to the emperor, it's like this, the crown princess...... Still here? ā
Emperor: "......"
He remembered that he almost strangled Wei Qing to death, because the beating of the Queen Mother was too serious, and everyone's attention was also on the Queen Mother, and they actually forgot about Wei Qing.
Coughing lightly, the emperor looked like he didn't care about himself: "Crown princess, she, are you okay?" ā
"It's nothing, it's just that she may not be able to speak for a while, but you can't let her stay in Fengning Palace all the time, right?"
"Isn't she supposed to be confined in the East Palace, how could she be here?" If he hadn't been here, he might not have been disturbed by her crying and would have done the rest of the thing.
The emperor, who would not introspect, blamed Wei Qing for his crimes.
"Back to the emperor, it was the queen mother, who said that she wanted her to kneel in front of the Buddha and chant the Buddha, when she was wrong, when she left." This is the will of the Queen Mother.
"Then let her enter the small Buddha hall in the West Palace and do what the Queen Mother said."
"Yes."
Wei Qing didn't know that the queen mother's will to help her would really be realized in her, originally just to outsiders, mainly Fan Shenxi, it was impossible for the queen mother to really let her kneel in the Buddhist hall all day long, but she was still served with good food and drink from the East Palace to Fengning Palace, and after a few days, she could return to the East Palace intact on the grounds that the Buddha forgave her.
But now, the Buddha Hall of Fengning Palace has been changed to a small Buddha Hall in the West Palace, which is implemented by Mr. Chen, so she really has to kneel until she is happy.
When Wei Qing woke up, before he could figure out the situation, he was pressed to the small Buddha hall in the West Palace.
"What do you want to do, what do you want to do? This palace is the crown princess, the grandniece of the queen mother, and the daughter of the Duke of Wei, how dare you do it to this palace, as long as this palace tells the emperor, you can immediately ask for your head. ā
The executive father-in-law said ruthlessly: "Although the princess went to pray, the servants were also ordered by the emperor to ask the princess to go to the small Buddha hall to introspect, and the Buddha forgave before she could come out." ā
The Buddha is just talking about it in everyone's mouth, if you really wait for the forgiveness of the so-called Buddha, don't you kneel until she dies?
Wait, what did this dead slave just say? Was it on the emperor's orders?
"Impossible!" The injured throat couldn't speak properly at all, but she couldn't care about it at all and shouted loudly in the pain, "Father can't treat me like this, you are falsely spreading the will to harm this palace, aren't you?" Let go of me, I want to see the emperor, I want to see the prince, let go of my ......"
Until she was pressed on the futon in the small Buddha hall and couldn't go out, someone watched her kneel all the time, and only let her rest at night and three meals, and didn't really force her to death.
It wasn't until several days had passed here that she really realized that this might really be the emperor's order, otherwise, if she was really locked up here in her capacity, how could the Queen Mother not come to her?
Yes, why would the emperor give such an order? Why did the Queen Mother let the emperor keep her here?
She was haggard and pushed onto the futon, her knees were swollen and painful after kneeling for a few days, and she hugged herself sadly, feeling that it was really cold here......
Back on the day of the accident, the prince returned to the East Palace, and he smiled at Qiu Xiaobei's bright smiling face, pushing a wheelchair past her.
Qiu Xiaobei hurriedly followed: "Your Highness, listen to my explanation!" ā
"Explain what?" Fan Shenxi asked everyone to go down, and he wrung a towel to wipe his face with the water Jingning had made, "Explain that the emperor will suddenly lose his mind and go crazy, it has nothing to do with you?" ā
"Hehe," Qiu Xiaobei scratched his head weakly, "It's a little related." ā
Hanging up the face towel, Fan Shenxi turned around: "Say, give you a chance to confess and be lenient, what did you do?" ā
"IāI'm just a little bit poisoned." She twisted her thumb and forefinger to indicate that it was really just a little.
Fan Shenxi listened to it but lowered his face: "Nonsense! ā
Qiu Xiaobei shrunk his shoulders and looked at him timidly.
"Don't tell me to make such a mess, if this is found out, see what you do!" He was fierce, and after that, he asked, "What kind of poison?" Will it be found out later? How's it going, didn't show any horses' feet, did it? ā
"No, unless you can still draw blood for him, but with the current technology, this is impossible, and after two days, after he drinks more water and metabolizes, even if he draws blood, he can't check it out."
As for showing horses' feet, it is even more impossible, it is the paper crane that poisoned her, she did not enter the Zhengqian Palace at all, even if she was outside the Zhengqian Palace, there was Xiao A and Xiao B to escort her, and she was not seen.
Seeing that she was shaking, Fan Shen snorted coldly: "What, very proud?" ā
He stood up and hummed with his mouth flat.
He stopped: "Next time, do this nonsense, you ...... You go back to your room and go to sleep. ā
Actually use this trick?
"Then, that person can't be angry, who let the emperor treat you like that, don't let me be angry?" She was so angry that she stomped her feet, and saw that Fan Shen was frightened, and hurriedly pulled her over: "Who told you to stomp your feet so hard, what should you do if you get the tire gased for a while, quickly, go back to bed and lie down." ā
Qiu Xiaobei, who was led to the side of the bed, secretly compared scissor hands, but she didn't forget to continue to get angry: "I really just want to vent for you." ā
Fan Shenxi pulled her to sit down on the edge of the bed without speaking.
"If you don't praise me, forget it, you still scold me!" She squeezed her red eyes hard, and deliberately dangled in front of his eyes, trying to make him see her tears of grievance.
Fan Shenxi was completely defeated by her, and felt that he was looking for guilt when he was angry with her, so he simply held her hand and spoke seriously: "Yes, you did a good job, you did a good job, not only did you get the emperor and the queen mother very happy, but even Wei Qing was not spared, and let me use this to also hit Zhou Guifei, but I would rather not have these, I just wish you well, nothing happens, understand?" ā
"IāI'm careful."
"I know," he reached out and patted her head, "I know you have the ability, but the palace is not as simple as you think, this time you succeeded, but next time, the emperor must be vigilant, this palace, there is ability, but I don't know you, once you are caught even a little clue, you would rather kill the wrong than let go, you are involved, there is a 10,000, what should I do?" ā
Qiu Xiaobei hurriedly picked up the cat urine in his eyes, and didn't dare to pretend to be pitiful anymore, but pounced on Fan Shenxi in shame and kissed Fan Shenxi's cheek: "Okay, I will definitely tell you first in the future." ā
And then what to do, and what to do.
Fan Shenxi: "......"
It's really in vain.
ā¦ā¦
After such an incident, even if the emperor and the queen mother repaired their relationship later, it looked different from before, but there must be a gap in their hearts, and the most important thing is that it has been several days since the queen mother remembered to tell the emperor that a woman was pregnant with the crown prince and heir.
In the past few days, Qiu Xiaobei's belly has become a little bigger, but she has hardly left the dormitory, and she walks back and forth in it, although Wei Qing is in the small Buddha hall in the West Palace, but she is worried that Wei Qing's spies have not been found out, she doesn't dare to take risks, it seems to be relaxed, but in fact, her nerves are a little tense, every night she orders the condensing incense made of herbs to have a good night's sleep, and Fan Shenxi will also give her a massage before going to bed, pinching her shoulders, arms and legs.
But Fan Shenxi is also busy, Qiu Xiaobei doesn't know what he is planning, there have been a lot of secret letters in his hands in the past few days, and after he burned them, new secret letters have been passed out, she feels that her husband is planning big things.
Then, what should come is still coming.
Fan Shenxi was summoned to the Zhengqian Palace.
"So far, among your brothers, only your eldest brother's concubine has given birth to a child, and you have not been able to give me a grandson, you know, our royal family values the imperial heir the most, you are now married, and you are the prince, you have to give me a hurry, if you really don't like your crown princess, I can also call the shots, give you a side concubine, this time let you choose yourself, who you like, the father will personally propose to you."
The emperor said half-seriously and half-kindly, like a grandfather who wants to hold his grandson.
Fan Shenxi replied indifferently: "Father, with the current situation of the sons, if you really want the emperor and grandson, it may be faster to find the fourth and fifth brothers." ā
"How's your body? You are in good health, don't use your perfunctory words about the crown princess, you must know that you are the crown prince, you should know that as long as you can be the heir of the emperor, your position will be more stable. The emperor quietly observed Fan Shenxi's expression.
"What my father said is," Fan Shenxi said, "But Erchen can't help it, Imperial Doctor Lin said that in the near future, Erchen must be restrained and not emotional." ā
"In the near future?" The emperor seized the loophole in his words, "That's what it was like before?" He smiled and said, "Could it be that there are already people around?" ā
"Father said jokingly." He said ambiguously, without denying or admitting, that he had a way out in the future.
The emperor smiled: "Father is not joking, the palace maid beside you has also accompanied you for many years, right?" People, it's easiest to fall in love over time, if there really is something, don't be embarrassed not to say it. ā
Fan Shenxi still said seriously: "No, the palace maid is just a palace maid." ā
It's really a boring, unfunny man.
The emperor looked at him suspiciously, but he couldn't find any flaws, so he let him leave.
He summoned Mr. Chen and asked him what he thought of the matter.
Mr. Chen: "Before the real hammer, the old slave didn't dare to say anything, after all, the medicine residue that the princess said was also disappeared later, and it could not be confirmed, and even if the medicine residue was there, it was really found in the East Palace, how to prove it, it wasn't a slave in the East Palace who secretly took the medicine and fried it to people outside the East Palace to drink?" ā
The emperor pondered for a moment: "But if it is really the prince who secretly has a child with a woman, this child will become a hidden danger in the future, and I will not allow this kind of thing to happen." ā
Manager Chen thought about it, approached the emperor, and said in his ear: "Your Majesty, if you really want to know, why not...... Ask that person? ā
ā¦ā¦
That night, Qiu Xiaobei climbed into bed first and lay down, and after Fan Shenxi also came to the bed, she moved over to stick to him, and after being hugged by him, she closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
But the hand holding her was very restless, at first just caressing her big belly, and slowly ......
"What are you doing?" She gripped his hand and snorted.
He smiled in her ear and whispered, "Gagan! ā
āā¦ā¦ā
His Royal Highness the Prince, who said that he couldn't be emotional, hugged the real wife in his heart and had a good feeling.
ā¦ā¦
Qiu Xiaobei woke up, and she heard someone calling her!
She was just taking a nap, Fan Shenxi was supposed to take a nap with her, it is estimated that she woke up early, and she is no longer there, and the others will not come in and make her sleep, because when she opened her eyes, she was alone in the room.
But she could clearly hear someone calling her name.
It's Qiu Xiaobei, not Father-in-law Pei or Xiaobeizi.
She got up and looked at the room, but she didn't see any souls here, not to mention that this was Fan's heavy bedroom, and it was just after noon when the sun was in full bloom, it shouldn't be possible that any soul would come here to find her.
Is it just a dream and waking yourself up?
"Qiu Xiaobei!"
Qiu Xiaobei, who was scratching his head and walking towards the table, was about to find water to drink, and turned around quickly, but there was no one behind him, and there was no soul.
But she did hear that there were "people" calling her!
She thought for a moment and walked out, and Jing'an, who was waiting in the middle hall, greeted her, and she waved her hand: "I'll go out for a walk." ā
When Jing'an heard this, she immediately followed.
Qiu Xiaobei said helplessly: "I won't go anywhere, just walk in the forest behind the dormitory, I can't lose it, don't follow me, don't worry about watching from the sidelines, okay?" ā
Jing'an thought about it and agreed.
Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't want Qiu Xiaobei to lock himself in the dormitory every day, even if the dormitory is not small, but going back and forth every day in such a small place, what is the difference between going to prison and going to prison, but Qiu Xiaobei has always been worried that his growing belly will be discovered, and he is rarely willing to go out, and the only time he goes out is out of the East Palace, and he doesn't know what to do.
Standing outside the grove, Jing'an could see the figure of the owner of the shell gradually walking in.
As Qiu Xiaobei went deeper into the small forest, the more obvious the voice calling for her became, and this call seemed to be heard only by her, when Jing'an walked with her before, the voice sounded twice, but Jing'an didn't react at all, until she entered the grove, and the voice calling her became urgent.
But suddenly, the voice disappeared again.
Qiu Xiaobei stared around suspiciously and vigilantly, but his shoulder was patted at this time.
She quickly turned her head, and saw a fluttering red dress, and when she looked up, she was smiling and smiling in front of her, she was stunned, and immediately looked at Jing'an, who could still see the figure outside the forest.
"Don't worry, I used a bit of a trick and she can't see me." Chili said proudly.
Qiu Xiaobei didn't relax because of this, she frowned: "Why are you here?" ā
"I'm here to see you," Chili smiled and looked at her belly, "By the way, come and see the cubs, I haven't seen a new cub born in years." ā
"What nonsense, I am a human being, and the father of the child is also a human being, this child will only be a human being, not a cub as you say, it depends on you, you either give birth to yourself or find your companion."
Chili smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Are you sure you are really human?" ā
Qiu Xiaobei was stunned and snorted: "Anyway, I'm not a demon." She thought of something, and asked in turn: "Speaking of which, each world has its own rules, and it guards the creatures of this world, and also restricts the growth of this world. ā
Because of this, since she came to this world, she has been restricted herself, she can't use too strong spiritual power, and she can really only use it secretly if she occasionally uses it, and she can't be discovered by others, and she can't exceed the strength limited by this world, because, balance.
Including the ghosts here, the strongest ability she has ever seen is the armor general, but the armor general is much worse than the ghost king in her "hometown", and the ghosts in this world are either supported by obsession and resentment, or they are the likes of Xiao A and Xiao B, or they secretly rub some dragon energy, or absorb some sun and moon essence, so that they can exist for a while longer, and ghost cultivation is almost non-existent.
If you want to have a big demon and a big ghost casually, wouldn't you be able to destroy an ordinary human being and take the position of ruler yourself?
Although, there are some strange things that make her puzzled, for example, the demon in front of her is one of them.
Chili smiled: "You are all here, why can't I, even if the laws of human beings are strict, there will be gaps, and so are the rules of the world." ā
Qiu Xiaobei looked at him suspiciously, she knew very well how she got here.
Pursing her lips, she said, "No matter how you came here, what are you looking for me today?" Could it be that in addition to Buying Mountain, there are other places that have heart light fruits? ā
"What are you watching out for? If you can't get one place, can you change places? Since Chili knows where the Heart Lamp Fruit is, he naturally knows the value of the Heart Lamp Fruit, "I'm here today to tell you another thing for free. ā
"What?"
Chili fell backwards, just leaning against the trunk of the tree, one foot bent back to support the trunk, and his hands clasped around his chest: "Yesterday, someone came to me and asked me about something. ā
can let Chili come to him, Qiu Xiaobei almost guessed something: "It's to inquire, who is the woman who is pregnant with the prince's child, right?" ā
Chili snapped his fingers: "It's so smart, then you say, should I tell him?" After all, you also know that I am very well-known in this area, and if I have something unknowing, it will affect my business in the future. ā
Qiu Xiaobei quietly clenched his fists and stared at Chi Li: "Then you came here to tell me what to do?" Tell me to run? ā
At that moment, Qiu Xiaobei's mind flashed with killing intent, whether to kill him with a fight, for Fan Shenxi, and for her children!
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to discuss with you."
"Discuss? Can I tell you not to say it, and you won't say it? ā
"Maybe," Chili spread his hands, "if you can come up with more value, maybe I'll be on your side, you know very well, I'm a reputable businessman, oh no, business demon." ā
Qiu Xiaobei lowered his eyes: "But I don't have anything of greater value that you said." ā
"Why not?" Chili stood up and leaned closer to her, "Think about it, you must have." ā
Qiu Xiaobei stepped back: "Don't beat around the bush, what do you want?" ā
"Oh, why are you always like this, you won't talk to me more." Chi Li complained aggrievedly, and only said with a smile under Qiu Xiaobei's angry glare, "Empress Ling has commanded three armies before, but the most outstanding is a strange army, and it is a pity that this strange army disappeared when they went out on a certain mission. ā
He tilted his head and leaned in front of Qiu Xiaobei: "I want a map of the place where the strange army disappeared." ā
Qiu Xiaobei's pupils shrank, and his face was very calm and indifferent: "I don't know what you're talking about, what map?" ā
"Don't play dumb with me," Chili twisted the small strap on her eunuch hat and played with it, "You don't know the demon, your eyes are bright, you can," the hand slid down the band, and finally pointed his index finger on her chest, "see through your heart." ā
"Smack-" Qiu Xiaobei slapped his hand away and sneered: "You are really funny, the map of the place where the strange soldiers disappeared, why don't you go to that place to find the locals to draw one, what are you looking for me?" I wasn't even here when the Strange Soldier disappeared. She paused and added, "My family has not yet been born." ā
"Your house is heavy?" Chili's smile faded a little, and his brows furrowed in confusion, "It's so intimate, it seems that this prince has been taken care of by you?" I didn't say you, why do you have to find a human? ā
