Chapter 173: Still Suspicious
Hearing Liu Wushuang's words, the anger in Empress Dowager Liu's heart still couldn't dissipate.
"You don't have to pretend in front of the mourning family, you can make this appearance now, it's just because the mourning family saved you in front of the emperor just now. However, the mourning family can also tell you plainly that the reason why I kept you was completely because of the little affection you had for the Liu family. This time, because of you, the mourning family has reached such a situation, do you think the mourning family will forgive you so easily! ”
Wushuang knew that this reckless act had harmed the Queen Mother, but after leaving the palace, Wushuang would definitely find a way to help the Queen Mother get out of trouble. No matter what Wushuang needs to do, as long as he can help the Queen Mother's place, Wushuang will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire. ”
"Hmph." Empress Dowager Liu snorted coldly again, but her expression finally relaxed a little, "After you return to the Liu family this time, tell your father that the mourning family will find a way to contact him, and when the time comes, just act according to the orders of the mourning family, and don't make any rash moves in the rest." ”
Although the smoke arrived this time, fortunately, the emperor did not make the whole thing public, that is to say, there is still a possibility of returning everything.
But every step she takes will have to be more cautious than before, and it will be more difficult than before.
Liu Wushuang lowered his gaze, "Yes, Wushuang obeys." ”
……
On the other side, Zhong Cui Palace.
"Please rest assured, the people's daughter has detoxified the queen's mother, and the queen's mother should be able to wake up tomorrow, and then she only needs to drink a few more decoctions to clear the residual poison in her body, and she will be safe and sound." Xiaoxi reported to Emperor Yun.
"Okay." Emperor Yun nodded, "You have a meritorious service in saving the queen mother, and I will reward you well." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiao Xi responded, and then looked at Yun Qingyan who was standing aside, as well as Yun Yao, "The folk girl retreated first." ”
After Xiaoxi left, Emperor Yun looked at the pair of children standing in front of him and sighed deeply.
"I know that the two of you must be very unhappy in your hearts right now."
"Father, although the sons also know that their father is doing this for the sake of the royal family, but the Queen Mother not only poisoned the queen mother this time, but also was ruthless and wanted to make a second move. This time, if it weren't for the royal sister's intelligence and timely detection, the queen mother might really ......" Yun Yao didn't continue, but the expression on his face clearly showed that he was not convinced at the moment.
"Anyway, she is the queen mother of a country, although she is not my biological mother, but she has the grace to raise me after all. And it is precisely because I was not born to her, if I really make a big deal this time, I am afraid that it will attract a lot of discussion in the court. ”
"My father has always taught us that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, this time it was the Queen Mother who made the mistake first, even if she has the identity of the Queen Mother, but it is so easy to forgive, doesn't my father think that it is too unfair to the Queen Mother."
Yun Yao frowned, although as a junior, it stands to reason that he shouldn't say these words, but this time the matter was not trivial, and the queen mother almost lost her life.
And looking at the Queen Mother's appearance just now, there is no remorse in my heart at all!
Emperor Yun also frowned, glanced at Yun Yao, and then moved his gaze to Yun Qingyan, who had been standing aside without saying a word.
"Yan'er, do you also think that your father's handling of this matter is unfair?"
Yun Qingyan pursed the corners of his mouth, "Father Emperor does this, naturally there is also a reason for Father Emperor." It's just that just being grounded in the palace is indeed too light. ”
"After all, she is the queen mother, if the punishment is heavy, this matter will spread sooner or later. Yan'er, you have contributed a lot to this incident, but you also have to think about it for me, I am not only your father, but also the husband of the empress, and the emperor of the entire Chu Yun Kingdom. I also want to administer justice for you, but how do you ask me to personally order the execution of the Queen Mother? ”
Speaking of the back, Emperor Yun's tone was stained with a bit of displeasure and annoyance.
This matter is simply a dilemma, no matter what he does, it will cause bad results, and he can only choose the lesser of two evils!
"Father, my brother and I didn't mean that, now that my father has made a decision, we naturally won't interfere with anything. It's just ......" Yun Qingyan paused, and his face showed a little doubt, "I always feel that this matter doesn't seem to be so simple. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Emperor Yun was stunned for a moment, "Could it be that there is something behind this?" ”
"I can't say clearly, but I think that if you think about it carefully, the reason why the Queen Mother said does not only exist at this time. If she really had to worry, she should have been worried about it as early as the first day when the queen mother became the queen. But after so many years, the two of them lived in peace, and the queen mother did not show any killing intent to the queen mother, why did she suddenly poison at this time, and after learning that she had missed, she even did not hesitate to admit the poisoning in front of Xiaoxi, so that Xiaoxi could do it. ”
If the whole thing is a closed loop, no matter how she thinks about it, she feels that something seems to be missing in the middle.
Listening to Yun Qingyan's words, Emperor Yun also had some doubts in his heart.
"Could it be that there is any other inside story about this matter, but the Queen Mother did not tell."
"I don't know." Yun Qingyan shook his head and looked at Emperor Yun, "Father, before Liu Wushuang was kicked out of the palace, I wanted to see her. ”
"You're going to get some news out of her?" Yun Yao asked.
Yun Qingyan shook her head, "This time, although Liu Wushuang fell for me, she has always been cautious, and she wants to get some news out of her mouth, but I'm afraid it's not that simple." And even if she did know something, she probably wouldn't tell me. ”
"Then why did you want to see her, sister?"
"Although there may not be any news, there is nothing to lose in meeting each other. What's more, since Empress Dowager Liu tried her best to protect Liu Wushuang just now, it means that for Empress Dowager Liu, Liu Wushuang is still useful. I wanted to see if Liu Wushuang would do anything next. ”
Yun Qingyan's expression was calm, with a little thought between his eyebrows and eyes.
Emperor Yun looked at Yun Qingyan like this, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. Her daughter has indeed become much smarter, but in this way, the things she has to bear and face will naturally become more.
"If you want to see it, go see it." Emperor Yun sighed in his heart.
He has already worked many government affairs in the court, and there is naturally no way to delve into some things in the harem.
But this time......
It is true that he is ashamed of the queen, and when the queen wakes up, he hopes that she can understand him.
