August 25 of the first year of Yonghui.

Due to the uneasiness of state affairs in recent years, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi ordered to lead hundreds of officials and the four concubines of the queen to enter the temple to worship.

When they hear it, they all say great goodness.

It's night.

Thousand Autumn Hall.

Concubine Xiao Shufei listened to Yao'er's reply, and said with a sneer:

"Can you find out?"

"Niangniang is relieved, the slave and maid can't find it more clearly.

This Concubine Xu is indeed bent on dying and martyring the emperor, but because of the obstruction of His Majesty and the prince of the inner chamberlain, she can't find a suitable opportunity.

So that people can get some poison from outside the palace to be freed.

Unexpectedly, the road outside the palace was also blocked by Wu Meiniang......

Therefore, she had no choice but to get this thing from a small palace attendant arranged by the Yang family in the old days. ”

Concubine Xiao Shu sneered:

"That's right......

This palace said, this is good, why do people say that it is gone......

That little palace attendant, have you found it? ”

"Niangniang is relieved, she has already found it.

And in order not to teach her and the master behind her to find out, the slave and maid are careful!

I didn't show her any news. ”

Concubine Xiao raised her eyebrows:

"The master behind her?

Could it be that she is ......"

Looking at Concubine Xiao Shufei's puzzled gaze, Yao'er nodded and said:

"Exactly.

Speaking of which, she is the close maid of the Yang palace attendant, but in fact, she is still the person who was arranged by the queen to supervise the Yang palace attendant back then.

I'm afraid that most of the palace attendants chose her as the candidate for sending poison at that time, in order to discover the origin of this girl a long time ago, so they used it......

In case someone finds out in the future, it will be convenient to get away with the crime, right?

After all, this girl is the queen's person.

But in this way, this Yang palace attendant seems to have some thoughts! ”

Concubine Xiao Shu sneered:

"The women in the palace, if they don't have a few skills, how can they live for a long time?

Just like that Liu Yunruo......

By the way, that, how are you doing? ”

Yao'er smiled:

"Mother's peace of mind.

A woman like her, if you don't like it, how can anyone dare to protect her?

There's less than one breath left right now. ”

Concubine Xiao Shu nodded, waved her golden sleeves, and sneered:

"That's fine......

Speaking of which, she also gave so many 'favors' to the palace back then......

If this palace doesn't repay her kindness, how can he be worthy of her? ”

Yao'er nodded, said yes, picked up the jade comb again, and carefully combed her long hair.

Xiao Shufei said again:

"But the Queen, on her part, still has to look for something that can nail her to the pillar......

It's just a little maid, I'm afraid I can't make any big waves.

What this palace wants is a perfect strategy......

Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be the same as before.

Got it? ”

"Yes."

"Also, that Wu Meiniang......

But do you really stop it, and don't let any poison flow into the Yunze Palace? ”

"Exactly. Yao'er also thinks it's strange, don't you say that this Wu Meiniang is half-hearted and looking forward to being able to set up a concubine?

If this is the case, Xu Hui is only afraid that it will be a big stumbling block on her road to sealing her concubines?

Why is she still treating Xu Hui so well? ”

Concubine Xiao Shufei smiled faintly and said:

"When you say that, you are underestimating this Wu Meiniang.

Who is she?

How could she not know that if His Majesty only had Xu Hui in his heart, then for her, Xu Hui was alive, but it was much more beneficial than Xu Hui dying......

Therefore, for her, at least Xu Hui must not die until she is guaranteed as a concubine......

At least definitely not at her hands.

Yes, I am afraid that this matter of sending poison to Xu Hui, although it was the queen's idea, most of the time she also got a hint and tried to facilitate this matter......

But for the sake of her own selfishness, she still had to stop this matter well.

In this way, no matter whether Xu Hui is dead or alive in the future, she will be equivalent to holding the handle of this matter......"

Speaking of this, Concubine Xiao Shufei suddenly paused and realized:

"Handle......

That's right!

Handle!

I'm afraid that Wu Meiniang is there, but she has the handle of the queen! ”

She patted the table lightly, thought about it, and looked at Yao'er brightly:

"You go and arrange it for Hongu!

This palace is going to see that Wu Meiniang tonight! ”

"She wants to see me?"

Half an hour later.

The palace of the government, the dormitory.

Mei Niang was holding the scroll in her hand, studying it carefully, and when she heard the news from Ryan, she was stunned for a while:

"Good end......

What did she see me doing......"

But in the end, she is Wu Meiniang, and soon, she figured out something:

"It's mostly because of Hui'er......

Think I'm in collusion with the queen and want to persuade me to obey her?

Maybe give her a chance.

Otherwise, she will be struggling in the palace as she is now......

I'm afraid it won't work out.

Then please wait an hour, and she will meet in the inner warehouse! ”

After Mei Niang gave the order, she continued to read the book without raising her head. But Ryan hesitated for a moment and refused to leave.

When Mei Niang couldn't hear Ryan's footsteps leaving, she frowned for a while, and said without raising her head:

"Why haven't you gone yet?"

"Sister......

Isn't it bad to see her at this time?

Let's not mention the other one, the lord later, but you want to come to us!

Moreover, Concubine Xiao Shufei is now also relieved of the foot ban because of the big sacrifice...... If someone finds her in the Legislature......"

"This Lizheng Hall is not my inherent residence, but Jiro gave me a temporary residence.

It doesn't matter who comes. It was she Concubine Xiao Shu who came, and she couldn't sleep peacefully for only one night, so she came to the Lizheng Palace to pray for Queen Wende's mother, in order to sleep peacefully, so no one could say no......

Besides, I also want to meet her......

It's also interesting to hear her talk about how she plans to deal with the queen, isn't it? ”

Mei Niang smiled at Ryan.

When Ryan heard this, he was also surprised, so he nodded and said:

"That'......

The Lord is over there......"

Mei Niang smiled faintly:

"What is going on up and down in this palace, which one can hide it from his eyes and his heart?

But ......"

Mei Niang groaned for a while, nodded and said:

"That's right. After all, he himself knows that taking the initiative to tell me is two different things from a mental point of view.

Then before you go back, report it to Jiro first!

Tell him not to worry. ”

Tai Chi Temple.

Li Zhi listened to Ryan's report, pondered for a while, and nodded:

"Even so, it's good to see each other.

It's just that you need to remind some of the girls to be careful. ”

Ryan replied, Li Zhi gave a few more instructions, and then went back by himself.

Seeing Ryan leave, Li Zhi's face showed some melancholy, and De'an, who was standing on the side, saw this and immediately said lightly:

"The Lord is worried about Sister Wu?"

Li Zhi sighed:

"How can you not be worried?"

He slowly got up, walked towards His Highness, put his hands behind his back, and looked out of the hall:

"Speaking of which......

Actually, I should have done this for her......

But I ......"

He shook his head, but didn't say anything after all, but just asked:

"Di Renjie, what's the news?"

Dean nodded and replied:

"The Lord is at ease, Master Di has always been careful.

But ......"

Li Zhi narrowed his eyes and looked at De'an:

"What's wrong?"

"Speaking of which, it's not a big deal, but the British Duke sent a message a few days ago, saying that he must ask the Lord to answer his request, and he must try to dismiss General Gao Kan from his military post after he returns to the division in the near future."

Li Zhi frowned and said unhappily:

"I'm in a hurry to pull him out again, but I can't pull him up...... But he came to beg for dismissal?

What the hell is going on? ”

Dean sighed lightly, shook his head, and said:

"De'an only heard that it seems that the eldest grandson Taiwei had arranged for some people to go to the British public account before, and they said that they were going to help, but in fact, they were ......

I'm afraid there is still some surveillance.

It's just that Dean thinks that in terms of the bearing of the British public...... He really can't take these small things to heart, and he shouldn't be able to take them to heart?

That's why Dean thought it was strange. ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he was stunned, thought about it for a while, and then nodded and said with relief:

"I see......

Speaking of which, it hurts him......

It's me, these days I only care about the affairs of the harem, but I have neglected these things.

At present, Gao Kan's big victory is imminent, and in the future, it will inevitably be reused. For the uncle, although they have many generals in the Guanlong family, they really have no good opportunity to show their strengths......

I also deliberately didn't give them this chance.

It was because they were in a hurry that they had to pull Li Ji into their camp......

But once the British prince is loyal to me, he doesn't want to do anything left and right......"

Dean also understood, so he nodded and said:

"In this case, the British Duke wants to concentrate on side affairs in order to make meritorious contributions, and at the same time help the Lord to take power in the future, but he does not want to participate in the struggle between the two clans above the court......

Then he can only temporarily stay above the military position and be demoted in order to seek peace.

Speaking of which, the loyalty of the British Duke is really pitiful. ”

Li Zhi sighed:

"yes......

That's why I said that my father was always so wise......

Everything and everything comes to mind before me......"

In his gaze, there is no complexity, only a simple yearning and thoughtful smile:

"De'an, there are times when I really think like this:

How nice would it be if my father would never leave me?

Then I can be the king of Xiaoyao Jin for a lifetime, a child slave for a lifetime, and a happy prince for a lifetime......

Lifetime......

As long as my father is here, I don't have to worry about anything in my life......

None of them. ”

Dean was silent for a long time before he said softly:

"Lord, what you said, I think in the future, one of your highnesses will also say it to the people around you!"

Li Zhi was stunned, turned his head suddenly, stared at De'an's face tightly, and suddenly laughed for a while:

"yes......

I really want the children to be able to say things like this......

For now, Zhong'er and Xiao'er won't talk about it......

But in the future, I still hope that Mei Niang's Hong'er can say such things! ”

Dean was stunned:

"Hong'er?

Lord ...... What do you mean by that?

Could it be that Sister Wu ...... her"

Dean immediately became excited.

Li Zhi smiled a little embarrassedly, shook his head with a little regret and said:

"Mei Niang's body at the moment has not been conditioned well, how is it possible?

It's just that......

It's just that I really wish that I and her child could be called that. ”

When Dean heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry:

"Lord......

This......

These eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, why are you in a hurry to give a name......

I don't know if it's a prince or an imperial daughter......"
