Chapter 326: Escalation
The child in the womb of Concubine Jia Yuanchun is the hope of the emperor, and if anyone is unfavorable to that child, he will definitely touch his scales. Today, two vicious incidents against children were discovered in a row, which completely angered the emperor, and he also had murderous intentions when he had always pursued benevolent government.
The anger of the Son of Heaven was bloodied for thousands of miles, and many people in the palace trembled, for fear of being implicated, and even the queen was panicked. The queen commands the six palaces, and has an unshirkable responsibility for the safety of the harem concubines. The emperor's warning before leaving made the queen tremble, if there is a similar incident again, I am afraid that the abolition will be light.
The queen lives in the harem and is much more familiar with the various doorways of the harem than the emperor. She is well aware of the seriousness of this matter and personally supervises the black hands behind the scenes.
The emperor returned to the imperial study and said to Han Fei, who followed up: "What does Han Aiqing think about what happened today?" ”
Han Fei thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, what you discovered today should be two forces, and the two forces are not connected, otherwise the drugs they use will not be mutually reinforcing." That palace maid is skilled, not something that ordinary concubines in the palace can find, it is very likely that she is a dead soldier lurking in the palace by forces outside the palace, if it weren't for the fear that Concubine De Niangniang would give birth to a prince, I am afraid it would not be exposed. As for the incident of adding drugs to the clay pot, whether the people behind the scenes are in the palace or outside the palace, Weichen does not dare to say anything. ”
The emperor was iron-blue and silent. The problems exposed by this incident are terrible, especially the lurking female dead soldier, what is the purpose of those people lurking? Getting rid of the fetus in Concubine De's womb is likely to be an incidental purpose, and the main target is very likely to be him, the emperor. If it weren't for Han Fei's identity being revealed today, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Han Aiqing, do you think there will be any accomplices of the female dead in the palace?"
"Your Majesty, the selection of palace maids in the palace is very strict, it is not easy for that dead man to be able to sneak in, Weichen feels that it is unlikely that there are accomplices, but for the safety of His Majesty and the ladies, the inner court and Jinyiwei should also be asked to increase the scrutiny, and those who have doubts should be cleared out immediately!"
"Well, this matter must be investigated to the end, and the loan will never be forgiven!"
There are such serious safety hazards in the palace, the emperor is extremely annoyed, and a personnel purge is inevitable.
The emperor pondered for a moment, and then said: "Han Aiqing, Concubine De's situation is worrying, if it weren't for Aiqing's timely rescue today, my emperor would not be able to keep it, what advice does Aiqing have for the protection of Concubine De's bedroom?" ”
"Your Majesty, how did the palace maid enter Concubine De's dormitory today, Weichen doesn't know, it can also be seen from this point that the people serving in Concubine De's dormitory are very complicated, and Weichen suggests that except for Concubine De's personal maid holding the qin, the rest of the personnel will be replaced."
Han Fei paused slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty, the palace maids who serve Concubine De must be reliable, you might as well recruit them from outside the palace, the ninth princess has no conflict of interest with all parties, and no one in her palace will use her brains, Weichen suggested that the ninth princess select a few reliable palace maids to enter the palace." In addition, the Weichen Mansion has specially trained four female guards to protect their relatives, these people are good and understand medical skills, and Weichen can send two female guards into the palace to protect Concubine De Niangniang. ”
"At this time, only the people of the ninth sister and Aiqing are the most credible, in order to avoid the further expansion of the situation, I will not give an order to the ninth sister, Aiqing will personally go to the ninth sister's mansion to select the palace maids, and then send them to Concubine De's dormitory together with the female guards in Aiqing's mansion."
"Wechen obeys! Wechen will do it! ”
Han Fei thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, there should be Jiaqing vigilance around Concubine De's dormitory, and unrelated personnel should be prohibited from entering and leaving, and Concubine De's meals and medicines should be disposed of in the dormitory." ”
In broad daylight in the palace, such a big thing happened, the news could not be hidden, and the bigwigs in Beijing had their own channels, and they must have gotten the news.
Han Fei walked out of the palace gate and was about to get on the horse, when Du Yun's confidant and loyal servant Du Yihu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle, the master ordered the little one to wait here!" ”
"The mentor has already gotten the news? The banquet in the house is over, right? ”
"Uncle, the lord has received the news of the changes in the palace, what happened specifically, it is not clear, the lord broke up the banquet and rushed back to the cabinet room."
"You tell the teacher that someone assassinated Concubine De Niangniang, the emperor is tracking down the mastermind behind the scenes, Concubine De Niangniang is already safe, let the teacher wait and see what happens, and I will talk about it in detail when I go back!"
Han Fei quickly returned to the mansion, the outsiders had already left, and several people from Jiafu were still there, Jia Baoyu saw that there was blood on Han Fei's shoulder, and said hurriedly: "Second brother, you ......"
"It's okay! Third brother, you tell your subordinates to clean up the yard and talk about it later! ”
The flower hall in the backyard of the Han Mansion was full of people, in addition to a few women of the Han family, the ninth princess Zhang Wanyi, Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Du Lan's mother and others were also present, everyone knew that something had happened in the palace, although I didn't know what was going on, the atmosphere at the scene was still very depressing.
"Uncle is back!"
The women in the hall all looked at the door together, and the Ninth Princess and the women of the Han Mansion stood up to greet each other.
"Uncle, are you injured?" The women were stunned when they saw that Han Fei's left shoulder was covered with blood.
Jia Mu also hurriedly walked up to her and asked, "Fei'er, what happened in the palace?" How did you get hurt like this? ”
"Grandmother, it's okay, it's just a little injury!"
There were too many things involved in the palace, Han Fei didn't want to say more, and immediately turned his head to the ninth princess and said: "You immediately go back to the house to choose four trustworthy palace maids, pay attention, you must be absolutely reliable, rush to the palace gate and wait for me, let's go to the palace together!" ”
Immediately, he said to Xue Baoqin: "You go and ask Xiaoqing Xiaocui to prepare, bring a change of clothes and a first aid kit, and then follow me into the palace!" ”
He saw that everyone in the hall was shocked, thought for a while, and said: "Concubine De's bedroom has found a thief, and he has been arrested, Concubine De's mother is safe and sound, you don't have to worry, don't ask around!" Okay, I'll go change my clothes, I'll enter the palace later, and we'll talk about it in detail later! ”
"Fei'er, Concubine De Niangniang......"
Han Fei saw Mrs. Wang's face full of panic, and comforted: "Madame don't have to worry, I will do my best to maintain the safety of Concubine De, I have asked the emperor to replace all the people who are waiting in Concubine De's bedroom, the palace maids of the Nine Princesses' Mansion are the ones who enter the palace to serve Concubine De, Xiaoqing Xiaocui is the first-class female guard of my house, I let them enter the palace to protect Concubine De Niangniang!" ”
"Inhuman, thank you so much......"
"Madam, the family doesn't talk to each other, Concubine De is my sister, and it is my bounden duty to protect her!"
When Han Fei and the ninth princess Zhang Wanyi rushed to Concubine De's dormitory with the palace maids, the atmosphere was obviously different, and the inner guards were on strict guard all around, and even the two of them were allowed to enter.
Concubine Jia Yuanchun had already gotten up and looked good, accompanied by the emperor, sitting on the soft chair together.
The emperor saw Han Fei followed by two quiet maids, and asked suspiciously, "Han Aiqing, this is the female guard in your house?" ”
Han Fei understood what the emperor was worried about, so he proposed to let the female guard compete with the inner guards outside the palace, but the result was a big surprise, and the female guards, who looked weak, beat the inner guards to the ground.
"Haha, Han Aiqing, I didn't expect there to be such a master in your house!"
"Qiqi Shengshang, there are only four such female guards in the Weichen Mansion, and these two people are the highest!"
At this time, Huang Ye hurriedly entered the palace to report: "Your Majesty, the incident of clay pots mixed with drugs has been clarified, and it involves two mothers and several servants of the celebrant supervisor......
Han Fei's pupils shrank suddenly, and his heart shook dramatically, a great change that shocked the government and the opposition was inevitable.
