On the day the matter was found out, Di Yi broke into Qiao Mu's palace drunk in the middle of the night, hugged Qiao Mu and whimpered in a low voice.

Said something that the arbor didn't quite understand.

It's not a matter of words, it's mainly that what he said is too vague, Qiao Mu really can't understand it, and he can only roughly hear how he can say something like this.

Therefore, Qiao Mu could only twist him to the side of the bed first, and then ask the Si Yu who followed him:

"What is the emperor's stimulus about?"

"After the emperor, the emperor seems to have found out the murderer behind the assassination of His Royal Highness, and it may be a little difficult to accept it for a while, so it will be like this.

It may be that His Majesty Ziqi is behind his back. ”

Si Yu is an official who is specifically responsible for assisting in the management of the internal affairs of the imperial palace, and his status is roughly similar to that of the later chief of the Great Interior, except that he does not need to be purified, and belongs to the very orthodox officials of the Imperial Palace of the Great Shang.

Ranked as one of the 12 divisions.

The status is second only to the three princes and eight elders.

The three princes are Dazai, and the eight elders are officials headed by Taishi, who are generally surnamed Zi.

In other words, the eight elders are basically served by people who are related by blood such as the emperor's uncle.

"I see, then you should step back first.

I'll try to persuade him. ”

Qiao Mu had actually guessed who was probably the one who did it on the day of Zi's assassination.

At that time, when he went to assassinate Zishou, the order was obviously given before.

And before.

In addition to being the heir of Emperor Yi, Zishou has no other status, nor does he have too high fame, because at that time, things like water-powered mills have not yet been made.

Inferences are made based on the guilt of the person who profited the most.

There is no one to start it except Ziqi.

Although the accuracy of inference according to the theory of the largest profiteer cannot be guaranteed to be 100%, the accuracy rate of more than 956% can still be guaranteed.

It's just that, after all, they are all her children.

is not a half-child, but a half-child, that is, the eldest and the third.

Arbor really didn't know what to do.

So I only told Zishou in advance.

Then I didn't mention it for the time being.

Unexpectedly, Di Yi tossed for more than a month.

The relevant evidence was also found.

In the end, he drank himself like this.

"Shui Yu, let's cook some decanting soup.

There shouldn't be any distilled liquor, the kind of turbid rice wine in the past, you don't necessarily get drunk when you drink it, but now this distilled liquor, a small bottle is almost half drunk, it's really harmful! ”

As Qiao Mu gave the order, the staff in the newly built small kitchen not far away immediately began to get busy, and after a while, the decanting soup that Qiao Mu wanted was brought over in a ceramic bowl.

In the past, arbors and their nobles used bronze ware, but some time ago, Zi Shou knew through the system that some bronze ware was poisonous, and long-term use of bronze to eat and cook things was easy to cause human poisoning, so they replaced the utensils they used daily with pottery, and only used bronze in sacrifices and more formal banquets.

Of course, Arbor will support this.

So she took the lead in replacing most of the bronzes in her palace more than half a month ago.

Changed to pottery.

After the sobering soup arrived, Qiao Mu hurriedly forced a bowl for Di Yi, and then moved him to the other side of his bed and went to bed first.

As for comfort or something.

How to comfort the drunk.

I'll talk about it tomorrow.

Because Di Yi drank the sobering soup last night, he was still sober when he woke up the next morning, and he didn't feel the discomfort after a hangover, but because he still remembered Ziqi's affairs, his mood was still not very good.

The whole person looked a little lost.

Qiao Mu didn't drink alcohol, so he got up earlier in the morning than he was, and was watering the flowers outside.

Hearing that the female officer said that he was awake, he first instructed the female officer to prepare breakfast, and then turned around and went into the house.

After entering the house, Qiao Mu first smiled and said:

"Don't worry, let's have breakfast first."

"Do you know what I found?"

Di Yi thought that Qiao Mu didn't know what was going on, and immediately said helplessly.

Qiao Mu didn't care and spread his palms:

"Don't you just want to talk about Ziqi?

Why do you feel so strange when this happens, even I think your investigation is too slow, didn't there have been any fights between you and Bigan back then?

Ziqi has been taken care of by you for the past few years, and you have also given him hope of inheriting the throne, haven't you? If he is ambitious, isn't that also what you have cultivated?

So, what's so weird?

To be honest, I haven't always understood that you have already given them two fiefs, why don't you let them go to the fiefdoms, but let them still hold positions in the court, don't you think this is giving them, especially Ziqi, hope? ”

"Is it my fault?

But I didn't know that you would be able to stand it again, and you and I are not young.

As for them not going to fiefdoms.

Hasn't it always been that way?

My brother didn't go to the fiefdom either? ”

Di Yi immediately frowned, feeling that he shouldn't bear such a big sin, how could he blame himself?

"Then you think it's better to be in the court.

Are you happy?

If you're not happy, don't leave any trouble for your son, the brotherly relationship is not so strong.

Also, it's not your fault that the son is born, can it be mine, can I give birth if I want to?

It's not good to get this thing out in the air.

Listen to me, let them both go to the fiefdom.

It's good for everyone.

You don't want to do anything to the two of them, do you?

After all, it's all our children. ”

Qiao Mu glanced at Di Yi.

At the same time, his own proposals were put forward.

If she remembers correctly, in the end, Di Xin's country was ruined, and his brother Wei Ziqi had a share of the credit, although it is quite normal for brothers to fight, but his behavior of directly being a traitor and opening the door to meet the enemy because of brother rivalry and other reasons still makes people feel a little despicable.

Continue to stay in Chaoge.

Maybe it will be a scourge in the future.

Finally, it is better to send it away early.

So as not to make a fuss too ugly in the end.

For example, the change of Xuanwu Gate or something, even if he did well as an emperor in the end, this is his stain after all, a stain that cannot be erased.

Qiao Mu didn't want that to happen.

If this kind of thing really happens, no one will have a light on their faces, and the father is not raised, and the father's fault.

How can mothers be without fault?

Di Yi didn't directly say whether it was okay or not, but he was silent, until the two bowls of chaos and two fritters were served, he ate the fritters, and said in a somewhat depressed voice and mood:

"Just do as you say.

If I hadn't received my son, it would have been good for Qi'er to inherit my position, but now that Shou'er has the qualifications of the Holy Emperor and is the rightful heir, there is no reason not to let Shou'er inherit the throne of the emperor.

Go back and persuade him when you have time.

Let him stop tossing the moth.

There is a limit to my patience. ”
