"Jiumang Mountain?" The queen vaguely felt that something was wrong in her heart, but she couldn't say it for a while, "But there is someone to go with?" ”

"The commander of the sky is not here, and this time there is only the emperor."

"Who else knows at this time?"

"It should be gone, last night, the emperor had very little food, and then went back to the palace to rest. Later, Gonggong Zhuo came out to order the minions, the emperor was tired, and no one was allowed to go in to disturb the emperor's rest. ”

"You suspect that's ......"

"The slave looked at the shadow and seemed to be coming from the direction of the emperor's bedroom, at first he thought it was an assassin, and when he was about to call someone, he remembered the abnormality of the emperor today, so he didn't dare to act rashly, and thought about going around the dormitory first, and sure enough, he saw Zhuo Gonggong standing in front of the door with a good manner, if there was really an assassin around the dormitory, Zhuo Gonggong should have shouted a long time ago, then there is only one possibility."

The queen continued expressionlessly: "The man in black is the emperor." If it weren't for the New Year's Palace Banquet, even if it was an occasional cold or head attack, he would have to review and hold on until the end of the day, and the night before he was willing to rest, and the night before was not a special day, and he did not suffer from a serious illness, so it would be strange to rest early.

"Later, in order to determine what he wanted, the slave kept watch behind the dormitory all night, until this morning, someone quietly came in from the back door, and turned into the dormitory from the side window of the warm pavilion, and then after less than half a pillar of incense, the emperor was served by Gonggong Zhuo and went out to the morning court, and the slave thought that it was not ordinary at this time, so he came to tell the queen."

"You're doing an excellent job." The queen looked at Xiao Wanzi, and her words did not hide her approval, although this Xiao Wanzi was young, he was a meticulous and clever person, and he really didn't look away.

After sending Xiao Wanzi away, Gonggong Zhang returned to the front hall, and saw that the queen's sitting posture had hardly changed, but she was playing with the grapes on the small table in her hand, splashing juice.

Father-in-law Zhang hurriedly took down the plate of grapes that had been unrecognizable, and then took a handkerchief and soaked it in the basin next to him before returning.

"Does Niangniang suspect that the emperor is out of the palace this time?" Father-in-law Zhang asked tentatively with a hunched body.

The queen took the handkerchief and wiped her hands, but did not respond.

"According to the slave, the emperor is just worried about the safety of our prince, and he doesn't want others to know, so as not to damage the prince's face, and also misunderstand the emperor's original intention of wanting to train the prince, so he traveled privately overnight?" Gonggong Zhang expressed his guess, but he didn't dare to use an affirmative tone at the end, because he knew his master's temper too well, since she already had some doubts at the moment, her speculation was just a gesture of comfort, and too much affirmation would cause the queen's displeasure.

Sure enough, the queen shook her head, "I have been married to him for so many years, how can I not know his temperament, he intends to exercise Yi'er, and he will not go in person anyway, not to mention that this time Sikong and Su Yan went together, which is already double the emperor's insurance." ”

"What the queen mother said is extremely true!" Zhang Gonggong suddenly realized.

"It must be extraordinary for him to be able to leave the palace in secret like this."

"Then the emperor will go to Jiumang Mountain this time......" Father-in-law Zhang took the veil and waited for the queen to show off.

"Go to the palace to check, who appeared in Jiumang Mountain this time, what they encountered when they entered the mountain, no matter how big or small, write them all down to the palace."

"Yes, the minion will do it!" Father-in-law Zhang walked out of the palace gate with small steps.

Queen Yeyang looked out the window, it was clear that it was noon, but it was full of thick clouds, and the slightest trace of sunlight could not penetrate it.

"I hope this palace's worries are unnecessary."

However, when Xiao Ye and his party were approaching the border of the West Dome, they saw a man wearing a hat riding a horse from a distance, and from his slight slowdown, it seemed that the target should be himself or someone in the team, Xiao Ye waved his hand behind him, signaling the convoy to stop.

Sure enough, the man got off his horse after approaching the convoy and said, "General Xiao is polite." ”

"Doctor Meng?" The man didn't take the hat, but Xiao Ye knew at a glance from the jade gourd on his waist that it was owned by Meng Li, the lord of the Ukiyo-e.

Meng Li generously admitted: "Just call me Meng Li." ”

Xiao Ye knew that the relationship between Meng Li and the eldest princess Mu Yunyi was extraordinary, and the ukiyo-e lord with his eyes above the top could almost be said to be the palace doctor of Prince Shun's mansion back then.

At this time, Rong Yue and the "princess" in the carriage also heard the movement outside the car, Rong Yue lifted the curtain, and said in the direction of Xiao Ye and Meng Li: "Doctor Meng, the princess has sent you to see you in the car." ”

"Yes."

Meng Li and Xiao Ye nodded slightly, and then walked towards the middle of the convoy.

After getting into the carriage, Meng Li blurted out, "Xiao Yiyi, are you okay?"

However, after the "princess" raised her head, Meng Li was surprised: "How ......" After realizing that there were many people here, he continued in a low voice: "Zilu, why are you?" ”

Meng Li originally sent Lu Lu, the great doctor of Ukiyozhai, to go to Jiumang Mountain with the people sent by Mu Yunduo, but how could she only see Zilu at this moment, and she was still wearing a princess's dress.

"Master." Zilu bowed slightly.

Meng Li waved her hand to signal her not to alarm the outside, "What about Xiao Yiyi?" ”

"The princess ordered me to switch identities with her."

Rong Yue on the side spoke: "Xiao Yi followed Dongzhao's carriage and horse to Shangling City. ”

"What are you going to do in Tozhao!" Meng Li was puzzled.

Rong Yue approached the carriage window, cautiously discerning the situation outside, and making sure that no one was approaching, before continuing: "This matter is a long story, I will explain it to you slowly when I go back, in short, Xiaoyi is fine, you can rest assured." ”

Meng Li pondered for a moment, and then wanted to get off the carriage.

"Meng Li, where are you going?"

"Shangling City."

"What are you going to do, Xiao Yi pretended to be a medicine girl in Ukiyo Zhai and went with the eldest lady of the Su family, wouldn't it be suspicious that you went!"

Meng Li turned around and said, "That's why I have to go with her, how can I let her ruin my reputation at will." ”

After speaking, Meng Li lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, and after saying goodbye to Xiao Ye, he took his horse back.

Who knew that as soon as Fang turned over and got on the horse, he saw another person coming towards him, but this time it was a woman in white.

When the woman approached, she dismounted and hurriedly ran towards Meng Li.

"Ziyu, what's wrong?" When Meng Li saw Ziyu looking in a hurry, he knew that something important must have happened.

Ziyu saw that there were not a few people around, so he stepped forward and said to Meng Li, "Master, ......"

After hearing this, Meng Li turned his head sideways and looked at Ziyu with a solemn expression, as if he was thinking, and as if he was confirming with her again.

And Ziyu nodded firmly in response.

Meng Li turned around and got on the horse, and said to Ziyu: "Follow me!" Then he turned the horse's head and ran in the direction from which the fish had come.

Ziyu also got on the horse neatly and sped up to keep up with the master.
