Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhao Yunheng who was kneeling on the ground, Zhang Dequan saluted when he saw this and said, "The assassin's corpse has already been sent back to the palace, and it can be inspected just by waiting for the palace door to open." ”

Zhao Yunheng said in a timely manner: "The minister is quite familiar with the pretence, if the emperor is relieved to hand it over to the minister, the minister will definitely give His Majesty an explanation." ”

Qin Zhao retracted his gaze and lowered his head as if he was a little tired: "I know your loyalty, but you have been injured tonight, if this matter is handed over to you again, I am really worried about Uncle Weihuang's complaints, you just go back and recuperate from your injuries." ”

Zhao Yunheng frowned imperceptibly; "Thank you for the emperor's concern, the minister will retire."

Qin Zhao looked at his back, his eyes dark; "You go and hand over the assassin's body to the General's Mansion and tell the General to be sure to identify me."

Zhang Dequan agreed and went down, and a little eunuch in the corner of the main hall slipped out quietly.

Concubine Li was reciting Buddhist scriptures in Liyun Hall, when a noisy sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and Xiao Cui's voice came in; "Niangniang, a few other ladies from the palace are here, do you want to meet?"

Surprise flashed in Concubine Li's eyes, she didn't expect someone to come at this time, she thought about it and said, "Let them come in and wait for me in the hall." ”

The old lady helped her up, and her tone was a little worried; "Niangniang, why is this difficult, I obviously don't believe in these gods and ghosts, and I have to chant all night, so I can't bear it."

Concubine Li smiled and opened the door of the Buddha Hall, the sky outside the door was already slightly bright, she looked at the bright light not far away, and her tone was indescribably sad: "Where is this palace for yourself, this palace is already in chaos, not to mention the mixed capital, this palace is really worried about my brother, so I should pray for him." ”

The old lady sighed and helped her into the main hall, and the concubines in the main hall of the hall had bad faces, and Concubine Li walked to the main seat and sat down: "I haven't congratulated my sister on her promotion, why did they all come to me today." ”

Concubine Shu smiled reluctantly: "Sister, don't joke, I'm just back to the concubine position, it's not a happy event, but the haunted things in the palace can't wait any longer." ”

Concubine Yun's face was not bad among several people, she put down the teacup in her hand and her voice was a little sad: "Sister should also know, this so-called haunting is just nonsense, but in the end it is not safe, and now that the queen mother is not in the palace, we can only discuss it." ”

Concubine Li looked at them for a while, and suddenly sighed; "Sisters, this is still not clear, isn't the reason why the queen mother is not in the palace is because the emperor is worried that the palace is not safe, several of us are not favored, even if we come up with any ideas to come to the emperor, we will not care, it is better to save some effort."

The movements of the three concubines were all stunned, and after a long while, they turned around and left without saying anything, Xiao Cui looked at the direction they left and whispered; "Niangniang, don't look at it, Xiwang is back, saying that she has heard about a big event."

Concubine Li nodded, and there was no more sorrow on her face: "Let him come in, and by the way, let people take a closer look in the palace, our palace can't be haunted anymore." ”

Xiwang came in after a while, made a salute and said, "The servant has heard that the emperor and the empress have been assassinated at the same time, and the prince of Wei has been allowed to stay in the capital for a while. The Assassin's corpse capital has been delivered to the General's Palace. ”

Concubine Li let out a long sigh, and Xiao Cui behind her was a little puzzled: "Although this is not a good thing, it doesn't matter to us, what is the sigh of the mother." ”

Concubine Li stood up and moved her stiff back and said meaninglessly: "It seems that our queen will come back soon, but I don't know what she will do." ”

……

Lu Qingjin didn't sleep well this night, and she got up at dawn, Xiao Ling said while serving her and getting dressed; "In the middle of the night yesterday, there was news in the palace, saying that the emperor had also been assassinated, would you like to go back and take a look?"

Lu Qingjin was a little surprised, she frowned and pulled the clothes on her body and said; "You send someone to invite Gongzi Wei to come to the main hall to have dinner together, and arrange for someone to go to the palace to report and say that the palace will return to the palace at noon."

Xiao Ling agreed and helped her out, and before she reached the main hall, she met Wei Jinzhi, who seemed to be stunned for a moment and then said with a worried face: "I heard that Mrs. was assassinated, and I was really uneasy, I don't know if I caused trouble." ”

Lu Qingjin smiled and soothed: "Whatever the son said, this is all because the people below are not careful, this Zhuangzi is always a little greedy for money, it's not a big deal, it just so happens that I still want to have breakfast with the son, it's better to be together." ”

Wei Jinzhi arched his hand and smiled: "Madame's words are really very angry, no matter how we say it, we are all partners, it is better to call me Jinzhi, so it is more pleasing to the ear." ”

Lu Qingjin didn't care about the salutation, he nodded kindly and led people into the dining room.

In the end, it is a person from the palace who does things very neatly, and when the two of them came in, the table was already full of food, and Wei Jinzhi's eyes flickered when he saw this before he spoke; "The people in Qingjin Mansion are really unusual, it's the first time I've seen such a hearty breakfast."

Xiao Ling glanced at him with a not very good face: "Of course, the one in our house is the best, and of course the one in the small family can't be seen." ”

Wei Jinzhi waved his hand again and again; "I didn't mean that, I just haven't seen a sigh girl, don't mind."

Xiao Ling snorted coldly and stopped talking, Lu Qingjin just sat there and ate quietly with an unknown expression, as if he couldn't hear anything.

Everyone was very depressed after a meal, and it was only when the people put away the dishes and chopsticks that Lu Qingjin came to say: "I'm leaving today, if you don't dislike it, you can continue to live in the house, the matter of the glass factory is also troublesome to you, if there is anything, you can send someone to deliver the news to the palace." ”

This sentence is clearly explaining his identity thoroughly, Wei Jinzhi has a consideration in his heart and pretends to be moved and said: "Thank you so much, I really didn't expect Qingjin's identity to be so noble, so I won't bother, and I will leave after a while, as for the glass factory, you can rest assured." ”

Lu Qingjin didn't say much when he watched him walk out on his own, but Xiao Ling beside him said with some worry; "Isn't it too dangerous to tell him everything?"

Lu Qingjin took a sip of tea and smiled, but did not speak.
