154, the real murderer appears?
On the second day, the Queen Mother had just gotten up, and she had never used breakfast, when she heard a commotion outside the palace.
She was displeased, and asked the old palace people around her to go out to have a look, only for a while, the old palace people turned around and reported, "Niangniang, it's Your Majesty, Your Majesty asked someone to send you to the palace......"
The old palace man trembled, and after finishing speaking, he fell to his knees on the ground, and his head touched the ground.
After a long time, I never saw the Queen Mother throw things or smash things on her. She cautiously raised her head and looked at the Queen Mother.
I saw the Queen Mother gritting her teeth, and the corners of her lips showed a sinister smile.
"Look at what? Don't you want to get up and dress up for the mourners? ”
The old palace people hurriedly got up, quickly helped the Queen Mother dress up, and served her to put on the Queen Mother's dress, and then helped her to walk outside the palace.
The father-in-law who was waiting outside was sent by his father-in-law, and when he saw the queen mother coming out, he quickly knelt down and said,
"Slave Li Gui, at the behest of His Majesty, come to send Niangniang to the palace."
The Queen Mother snorted coldly and looked at Li Gui, "What if the mourning family doesn't get in the car?" ”
"Niangniang forgives her sins, slaves and maids are also messengers, Niangniang is not strange, and she also asks Niangniang to get on the car......"
The Queen Mother raised her hand, and with a "snap", her hand waved towards Li Gui, and she stared at Li Gui coldly.
"No matter how the mourning family is, it is also the queen mother of this Eastern Dynasty! Will the mourning family go by themselves, and want you cheap slaves to urge? ”
Li Gui was beaten, but he was not angry, but bowed lower, and his voice was more respectful, not only that, but he also slapped himself a few times, saying,
"The slave is guilty, the slave and the maid punish themselves, how dare the slave and the maid urge the mother, the mother is willing to get in the car and go to the palace by herself, that is the best, the slave and the maid are grateful."
After speaking, he straightened up, lowered his face, and shouted loudly, "What are you doing to eat, Your Majesty has a will, the Queen Mother dreamed of the first emperor, and she was panicked for a while, and she thought of the floods that occurred in the provinces last year, and the people's livelihood was difficult, so she volunteered to go to the palace in the western suburbs to reflect on herself and pray for the blessings of the people......
Aren't you helping the Queen Mother move the palace together? ”
The palace people kneeling on the ground were all from the queen mother's side to serve, and now they think of going to a remote place like the suburban palace, they are all like mourning, no matter how helpless they are, they still get up one after another, and help the people sent to load the bags that have been prepared long ago into the car.
The Queen Mother's face turned pale, turned her head, glanced back at the palace where she had lived for more than 20 years, and finally took a step forward and walked forward.
She walked out of Yongfu Palace, passed the Kunyi Gate, and on the palace road outside, a few people were walking.
At this time, it was the time of the next early dynasty, and King Ping and the Duke of Jingguo, the three princes and others walked together.
The Queen Mother set her eyes on those people, staring at them and did not speak.
Today's emperor is no longer the emperor of the past.
ousted Yang Ge Lao and the British Duke from power, and finally held all the power in his hands, and he became so ruthless.
She withdrew her eyes from those people, turned around and looked at Kunyi Gate, how much effort did it take her to go from an unknown concubine to the queen mother?
She thought that she could die in this Yongfu Palace, but now, she was kicked out of the palace, and she couldn't go back unless she was edicted!
No, sooner or later, she will definitely come back one day, walk through this north main gate located in the middle palace, and get back everything that originally belonged to her.
She cast her eyes on the people who stopped on the palace road again, and walked past them step by step, watching them kneel down and salute her, and then stand up again.
It's a pity that fate plays tricks on people like this, giving people hope, and in the end, it is often just to make people more and more deeply understand the pain of disillusionment at the beginning.
At this moment, the Queen Mother didn't know that this was indeed the last time she walked through this north main gate.
After the queen mother walked away, King Ping said to the third prince with a sigh, "Your imperial grandmother is also pitiful enough, in the future, you have to go to the palace to see her." ”
Yasukuni walked behind the two and was noncommittal to King Ping's words.
In the early dynasties, Emperor Yongping announced the relocation of the queen mother to the palace at the court meeting, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were naturally all surprised.
The Ministry of Rites also admonished, saying that it would issue a document to commend it, and after the court, the courtiers left the palace one after another, and what they said along the way was all about this matter.
However, after discussing it for a long time, everyone still didn't know what to do, but they all had one thought, after the fall of the British Duke, the Empress Dowager Zhang was completely intolerable to the emperor.
Jingzhong has already shown chaos, and it seems that the capable princes have failed, but in fact, there is an undercurrent surging underneath.
The prince hibernated in the East Palace, unwilling to be the bird that came out.
The speed of aging during this period of time is visible to the naked eye, and his spirit is not as cold as before, and his heart is even colder, and few people can figure out the emperor's mind.
……
Spring is fleeting, and soon, in May of the twenty-third year of Chengping, Xiao Xu'er was taken care of by the eldest princess of the country.
Although Gu Nian didn't keep it by her side in person, after dealing with the affairs in the house, she went to see her son at the eldest princess of the country, hugged him, and watched him grow up day by day, and her heart was soft, sometimes she couldn't help but kiss him a few times, and kissed him so much that he pursed his mouth and spit bubbles in protest.
Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an's son-in-law are still disgusted with each other, but when there is something, the two of them are very tacit.
The two of them often whispered on the side, and when Gu Nian looked over, both men smiled softly at the same time.
Gu Nian also pursed her lips and smiled, such a day is very quiet, and the prestige is not good, probably after the confinement, she looked in the mirror and saw that the outline of the facial features in the mirror was still the same, but the complexion was sallow, the pigmentation on the face had not disappeared, the hair was pulled casually, wearing homely clothes, and she looked really not very good, she was startled.
It's ugly!
She had to become, such a self, the prince not only watched closely, but even helped her change her clothes every day, she could kiss it, and her eyes had to be muddled with eye feces.
Seeing that she had been touching her face, Huang Qi pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, the princess, Mama Su beside the princess said that after the child is born, this pigmentation will disappear soon, and when the time comes, it will be good to raise and maintain well, and it will soon be able to recover its former complexion." ”
"Also, Mr. Zhang also said that he will get you some prescriptions for regulating your skin, and when the time comes, you will be as beautiful as before."
Gu Nian felt that the world was dark, touched the fat on his waist, and tried the clothes from before, but he couldn't wear them......
Coincidentally, Xiao Yue came in, saw her face down, looked at Astragalus, Astragalus just smiled and saluted, and then withdrew.
"What's wrong? This is? Who made you angry? His tone and expression seemed as if as long as Gu Nian said that someone had bullied her, and immediately rolled up his sleeves to fix that person.
Gu Nian couldn't help but mutter, "When you give birth to a child, you become so ugly, how did you get married......
When Xiao Yue heard this, he smiled, turned her body, and kissed her eyelids a few times gently, "Is it ugly?" I don't think so.
Not as ugly as those who retreated from the battlefield, those were wounded, and their wounds were even rotting. ”
Gu Nian was choked by him, where is there such a thing, comparing himself with those who are injured and ugly......
I only heard Xiao Yue continue, "You are like this in order to have children, how can you be ugly, how great is it to be a mother......"
Gu Nian rested his head in his shoulder socket, it was rare to hear him say such nice things.
However, although the prince of the family was already blinded and couldn't see her beauty and ugliness, Gu Nian still began to slowly find a way to lose the fat on her abdomen.
She forgot where she had heard it, saying that men are visual sensory creatures, and that wives are as beautiful as flowers and naturally happy, even if their wives are out of shape by giving birth to children for them, they are not without other ideas in their hearts.
Especially after a woman becomes a mother, she is in charge of housework, and it is easier to look old, which is not as beautiful and natural as before marriage.
After many men become famous, they abandon the dregs and yellow-faced women in the family and marry young and beautiful women.
Gu Nian and Zhang Chunzi learned a set of health boxing, and they played every day after getting up, and they didn't deliberately reduce their meals or anything.
Speaking of Zhang Chunzi, Gu Nian thought that he sold the news in the mansion to others, and Xiao Yue also knew about it that time, and he didn't know what the two said, and after that, Zhang Chunzi continued to stay in the mansion.
In the past, Zhang Chunzi gave people the feeling that he would leave the palace at any time, and people would disappear.
After that, as if he was going to be stationed in the palace, he put the young man Zhong Heng he had brought with him in the palace, took him with him, and taught medical skills, and at the same time, there was also astragalus, which was also accepted by him as an apprentice.
Gu Nian thought about Zhang Chunzi's matter, and he didn't feel very happy, and he didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd.
Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an were talking in the study, and when they saw that it was getting late, after sending Gu Shi'an away, when they returned to the room, they saw that she was not in good spirits, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”
Gu Nian told Xiao Yue about her doubts about Zhang Chunzi, and after Xiao Yue listened, he touched her hair, "Zhang Chunzi I have already arranged it, he won't have any crooked thoughts at the moment." ”
"Did you find out who was behind that? Also, is there any news from Dark Seven? Gu Nian asked.
Dark Qi followed the shopkeeper in Phoenix City all the way back to the capital, supposedly, she should have returned, but she didn't hear Xiao Yue mention it.
Gu Nianhu looked at Xiao Yue suspiciously, guessing what she didn't know, and seeing that he didn't say it, she didn't bother, so she smiled and said,
"The crown princess made a post today, saying that a few days are the prince's birthday, because it is not whole, so I just invite everyone to have a meal and have a lively time."
Xiao Yue also smiled and said, "If you don't say it, I forgot it, and when the time comes, we will go together to congratulate the prince's brother on his birthday." ”
The two discussed the gifts to give, and then went to the clean room to wash.
When Gu Nian came out, she saw that Xiao Yue was already lying on the bed, she climbed into bed from the end of the bed, lifted the quilt and lay in, who knows, under the futon, Xiao Yue was lying in it.
Before she could lie down, he turned over, covered her under him, divided her by two, stripped her of her clothes, and then bit down in one bite.
On a May day, the temperature was not low, but the window was half open, and a gust of wind blew, Gu Nian's pores shrank, but soon, she was rubbed and heated, thinking about it, although the two have been sleeping in the same bed, but the following months are older, with childbirth, confinement, the two have not been so close for a long time.
She hooked his neck and kissed him tenderly.
Seeing that his wife was so considerate, Xiao Yue immediately slowed down his movements and obediently let her do whatever she wanted on herself.
Gu Nian knelt beside him, from his lips, earlobes, all the way down, to his collarbone...... Xiao Yue's whole body was tense and red, but he didn't dare to move, for fear that if he moved, she wouldn't continue.
Fortunately, Gu Nian is not the kind of person who makes bad things, and she didn't tease her, but her whole body was attached to his chest, like a burning fireball, which instantly took him to the fire.
Xiao Yue couldn't bear it, and he didn't care if she continued or not, he lifted her up and let her sit on top of him...... (1,500 words are omitted here, everyone makes up for it)
He felt her body begin to tremble, listened to her painful and cheerful voice, and finally gave everything he had to her.
Gu Nian lay on his shoulder, his body was as soft as a smooth satin, and the sweat of the two was mixed together, exuding a charming atmosphere.
Xiao Yue got out of bed lightly, took a cotton handkerchief, and gently wiped her clean.
Gu Nian lay there lazily, his fingers scratching his thighs up and down, and before he could scratch twice, he was ready to move again.
Gu Nian leaned his hand down, Xiao Yue's body stiffened, he roared lowly, and threw the cotton cloth in his hand, who said she wouldn't make it bad?
The result of such a teasing is naturally to take care of the soreness of the waist and limbs......
When the wind calmed down, the sky outside gradually became brighter.
Xiao Yue half-pressed her, and said in a hoarse voice, "Rejoice." ”
Gu Nianti didn't want to move a finger, just closed his eyes and let out a long 'um' sound.
Xiao Yue saw that she was tired like this, and she was a little distressed, so she took the wrinkled clothes at the end of the bed, helped her put them on, then covered the quilt, and said, "It's still early, you can sleep well, and when you wake up, let someone carry water in and take a dip." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the corners of the wall and got up and got dressed.
Gu Nian stretched out his hand from the quilt and pulled the corner of his clothes, "Sleep with me." ”
It's rare for her to be coquettish with him like this, Xiao Yue's whole body is about to melt, and finally she can't help it, so she goes into the bed again and hugs her.
Just closed his eyes, and the green leaves who kept vigil outside the door knocked on the door to report,
"Lord Wang, Dark Seven is here......"
Gu Nian opened her eyes, she had only asked about Dark Seven yesterday, and today there was news that she and Xiao Yue sat up together.
Xiao Yue said, "You rest, I'll go out." ”
Gu Nian nodded, watching him put on his clothes and go out.
Dark Seven followed the shopkeeper back from southern Xinjiang, and for several months, there has been no news coming, and he suddenly came to pay attention now, doesn't he know who the person behind the shopkeeper is?
Gu Niandong thought about it, and after all, he couldn't lie down, so he got up and quickly put on his clothes and went to the ground.
As soon as she got off the ground, ready to call the maid to prepare water for bathing, Xiao Yue had already walked in and said, "Dark Seven is injured." ”
Gu Nian was stunned, and then replied, "Have you invited a doctor?" How did you get hurt? ”
It turned out that Dark Seven followed the shopkeeper all the way from southern Xinjiang to the capital.
It's just that the shopkeeper, after arriving in the capital, didn't go to the master behind the scenes, but went to the Qinglou first, mixed in the Qinglou for two days, and then went to the gambling house.
Dark Qi did not follow the gambling house directly, but sat in a small teahouse diagonally opposite the gambling house, and he learned some disguise from Zhang Chunzi in southern Xinjiang and turned into a small businessman.
Twilight slanted into the teahouse, and the surrounding area was noisy and noisy, as if it had nothing to do with the court or political parties.
Then, it is in this market that the most unexpected side is often hidden.
waited until it was almost dark, and entered the shopkeeper of the gambling house, but did not come out.
A place like a gambling house is the most revealing and hiding.
Dark Seven drank his tea slowly, thinking to himself that if he didn't come out after a quarter of an hour, he would go in and pull out the person he had been staring at so closely.
The sky gradually darkened, and a quarter of an hour passed, and Dark Seven paid for the tea and walked towards the gambling house opposite.
However, as soon as he reached the door, he saw that the person who was watching the gambling suddenly turned his head, moved his footsteps, and suddenly got into the crowd.
Dark Seven hurriedly followed.
The people in the gambling house were all focused on gambling, no one noticed Dark Seven, he opened the curtain and went to the backyard, there was a door in the backyard, the shopkeeper didn't look back, walked out unhurriedly, and when he arrived in the alley, he suddenly sped up his pace and walked to the depths of the alley.
The night has covered the earth, and the light in the depths of the alley is getting weaker and weaker, but it's hard to make it difficult for the dark seven who has crawled out of the dark guard camp since he was a child.
Dark Seven wants to bring the shopkeeper back no matter what, interrogate clearly, and seeing that he is about to reach the bottom of the alley, Dark Seven jumped up and grabbed the person in front of him.
He didn't recognize it, but a shadow suddenly covered his head.
A net was cast on top of his head, and Dark Seven knew in his heart that he had been fooled.
He drew the dagger from his sleeve and slashed at the net, but failed to break it......
Dark Seven didn't expect that he had been an spy shadow guard for so many years, but he capsized in this gutter, and instead fell into someone else's way.
Two big men in black jumped out of the darkness, and one of them raised his hand and was about to attack his neck.
He was in the middle of a net, unable to move, but he could not sit still.
He made a gesture when that palm struck, and then there was a pain in his neck, followed by a cold voice, "Take it away!" ”
I woke up again with cold water.
Dark Seven opened his eyes, and what he saw was an ordinary room, with two people standing in front of him, and behind them, there was a neat row of people in black.
He was tied with ropes and thrown to the ground, and the one with the lantern by his side was the shopkeeper he had followed from southern Xinjiang to the capital.
"Awake?" A deep male voice suddenly came from behind him.
Dark Seven's mind spun rapidly, carefully discerning, they had a special skill in the Dark Guard Camp for hearing and discerning.
It's just that this voice is not the original voice, and the person who spoke should be wearing a veil.
He wanted to turn around and see who this man was, but the shopkeeper with the lantern stepped on him, preventing him from turning back to see his face.
"A trained Secret Guard?"
The man said with some disdain.
A dark shadow leaned over and suddenly grabbed his shoulder, a piercing force that turned his entire shoulder from pain to numbness.
"It is said that the dark guards of the Jin Palace's bones are hard, and I also want to know how they compare with our secret guards, how is it? Does it hurt? ”
The man began to turn his head to talk to the man next to him, and then to ask him, his voice full of smiles.
Dark Qi's face turned pale, and there was a bone-chilling pain in his arm, which should have been twisted off the joint.
He settled down and said, "You are a small child, a rat hiding in the dark, you have the ability to have a fight with grandpa in the open." ”
"You wait, my master won't let you go."
The man was not angry, and said in a gentle voice, "I'm a rat, don't you want to be caught by me, your master?" Don't worry, soon, I'll let him go underground to see you. ”
His voice suddenly became sharp, and the gentleness just now, as if it was an illusion, a mockery.
A cold sweat broke out on Dark Seven's back, and he couldn't tell if it was because of the pressure of the foot on his back or because of what he said.
His other hand, intact and clenched into a fist under the rope, and he remembered what his master had told him, if only he could find out who the shopkeeper was connected to.
Not all the secret guards are alone, this time, on the surface, he is the only one who is following, and there are two brothers in the secret guard camp secretly, I just hope they can see who the person in front of them is.
Even if they don't see it clearly, I hope they can figure out where they are now.
Dark Seven sneered, "You're just acting in secret, and I don't know who went to hell." ”
"Speaking of which, you are also amazing, the people who followed me from southern Xinjiang all the way to the capital, and they didn't find you at first, and they found out that you were wrong when they arrived at Qinglou."
Dark Seven was silent, he was found in the Qinglou? Why?
The man paced up behind him, "Want to know why?" Hehe, because when a man goes to the Qinglou, he is going to be happy, which one doesn't hug left and right? You are the only one who is partial, and you are not messed up. ”
Dark Seven had a deep layer of cold sweat on his back, and he didn't speak anymore, they were secret guards, protection, assassination, and intelligence detection, but they had never approached a woman......
The man paused, probably bored, and commanded, "Yes." ”
Then he walked outside, the footsteps became farther and farther away, and Dark Seven swallowed his saliva, and he secretly prayed, hoping that his companions outside would know the details and go back to report to his master.
He was an orphan, and from the day of the Secret Guard Camp, he had been ready to face death at all times......
The two people who remained, as if playing cat and mouse, were not in a hurry to kill him, first inserted a sharp blade into his arm, and slowly pulled it out little by little.
He could even feel the cold blade passing through his arm, then slowly getting hotter and being pulled out again.
He tried to shout, but was caught by another person. The blade continued to create deep and shallow wounds on him.
He felt hot blood gushing out of his throat in his chest, and he tried hard to swallow it back.
Suddenly, the hand covering his mouth and nose softened, and the blade stopped moving.
He turned his head and saw that it was his companion, he laughed, his hanging heart relaxed, and the blood finally gurgled and he swallowed it back.
He fell to the ground as well.
The two companions carried him out, running wildly in the dark night.
Hearing his companion say that he had drawn a map and painted a portrait of the man in a black scarf, he finally fainted with relief.
The two guards sent him back, along with a map of the Tibetan place and a portrait of the man in the black scarf.
Gu Nian took the portrait, only to feel that the unblindfolded eyes were so familiar......
But for a while, she couldn't tell who this person was.
She put down the portrait and asked, "Is the Dark Seven seriously injured?" If it doesn't work, let Mr. Zhang show him. ”
"It's not hurt, just take care of it." Xiao Yue replied.
After speaking, he picked up the portrait and looked at it again, but there was no answer in his heart for a while.
"It's an abandoned house, and I've had people find out where it used to belong."
Gu Nian knew that Xiao Yue must have made arrangements. She breathed a sigh of relief.
This person behind the scenes, not to mention how many lives and blood he has stained, should let him hide in the shadows, and he will pounce on him at any time to bite such a disgusting feeling, and it is time to reveal his true face.
By noon, the people sent out by Xiao Yue had already returned, and the owner of the abandoned mansion was a subordinate of King Su back then, and later because of King Su's affairs, he was implicated, and the whole family was beheaded.
That house, the court did not confiscate it, but no one came to collect it, a few years ago, it was bought by King Ping......
Also, Xiao Yue painted a portrait of King Ping, and placed it with the masked statue, and the eyes were exactly the same......
"King Ping?"
These two words spit out from Gu Nian's mouth, and he seemed to be shocked by something, and his heart suddenly rippled.
To be honest, I have never set my eyes on King Ping, but King Ping has always made people feel that he is not so smart.
This bureau has been planning since more than ten years ago, if the emperor drove the emperor in person and the news of the emperor's death came, even if the prince was there, he would probably be ousted by King Ping soon, right?
There is another reason why they did not set their sights on King Ping, and that is that he has no heirs.
But now, combined with what Gu Ci said that day, he has been contacting the prince of the clan, and if he still says that he is impossible, it will be tantamount to deceiving himself.
He has no heirs, and it is no longer evidence that he cannot sin, nor kill, nor have ambitions.
But there is still a question, how did he know about Zhang Chunzi? What secret did he pinch Zhang Chunzi? Let Zhang Chunzi be willing to use it for him?
"Now, although we have locked King Ping as the person behind the scenes, we still have to admit it to him himself."
"And even if he admits it himself, he still has to find out his details before he can do it."
"If you don't figure out the details of him and uproot him, you will be calculated by him if you don't do it."
He was able to disguise for so many years, so that Emperor Yongping could rest assured that he would let him travel everywhere and make friends with the prince, which shows how deep this person's shadow is and how cautious he is.
How can such a person be rash?
"So what to do?" Gu Nian asked.
Xiao Yue's eyes looked out the window and became cold, "Keep an eye on him first, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I will force him to make a move and let him be active among the courtiers!" ”
Gu Nian nodded.
