Concubine Yan seems to have fallen out of favor, and it makes no difference if she follows up with the cold palace in the future, like this kind of thing of taking medicine by herself, I am afraid that she will not be qualified in the future, and it doesn't hurt to let her be decent again. However, today is more sensitive, and Father-in-law Li still asked one more question just in case.

Speaking of this, I can't help but flaunt myself, "I can't ask whether I live or die, I think Concubine Yan didn't give any benefits, but I taught them a lesson with you, and spent a little bit of private money, so I came out." ”

Gonggong Li is a person who has come over, so he naturally knows the little Jiujiu in their hearts, "You say." ”

Lai Shun whispered: "It's Shunzi soup." ”

Gonggong Li was shocked, avoiding the soup? Isn't this Concubine Yan crazy?

Ordinary concubines wish to be pregnant with a dragon fetus after being fortunate by the emperor, but there are still people who can't think of drinking shunzi soup?

It's not right, Gonggong Li suddenly remembered that this Concubine Yan had already given Shunzi soup last night, because the emperor didn't want her to give birth to a prince.

Why did you drink it again, because I was afraid that it would not be clean last night?

"Concubine Yan went back today, what did she do?" Gonggong Li asked.

Lai Shun said: "I didn't do anything, I've been in the dormitory, I heard that I also dropped a table, and I think I'm not lightly stimulated." ”

Gonggong Li nodded, and didn't come up with a clue for a while, so he put her aside first, anyway, it was useless, or Mrs. Qingyang Hou was more important.

"Nothing unusual in the other palaces? How is Yao Guifei doing? ”

Lai Shun shook his head, "No, the concubine has been very peaceful recently, she studies all day long, and she sleeps early, and she sleeps extra early today, it is said that she is tired." ”

Gonggong Li groaned, he looked at the few children present, and asked casually, "What about Liu Dayou?" ”

Lai Shun said: "You forgot, he is not in office at this time." ”

Gonggong Li was blessed to his heart, and suddenly thought of going to the duckweed palace to check the room, he didn't make a sound, and sent the children to do what they should do, and he quietly went to the duckweed palace.

Gonggong Li enters the duckweed palace, just like the emperor enters the home of a minister, Gonggong Li is the sky in the eunuch's nest, generally as long as he comes, everyone has to be respectful and respectful to greet the ancestors.

But today he didn't tell anyone, just to see what the children were doing when they weren't noticed.

As soon as he stepped into the duckweed palace, he frowned, because in the middle of the night, there was no sleep in each room, and there were all kinds of unsightly sounds coming from inside, some were messing around, some were gambling cards, and some were laughing, it was really lively.

Holding back his anger, he walked around the well in the courtyard and kicked open the doors one by one.

"Who is so short-sighted...... Mom, it's Mr. Li! ”

The little eunuchs were boldly disturbed, and they were going to be furious and scolding, but when they found out that it was Manager Li, they all seemed to be scared out of their souls, wearing pants and wearing pants, and hiding girls and hiding girls, which was simply ugly.

Gonggong Li's fire had already burned to the Heavenly Spirit Gai. "You are so bold!"

"Father-in-law Li atons for his sins!" The eunuch who was caught knelt down in rags, "Gonggong Li atoned for his sins, we indulged for a while, not every day, you ......"

"Shut up!" Gonggong Li was so angry that his head hurt, and he pointed to this group of things that don't grow, "You can do it, sooner or later you will take your own life!" ”

The eunuchs knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy. Gonggong Li took a few deep breaths before remembering what he was here for, he held back his anger and looked for a circle of people, but he didn't find anyone from Liu Dayou.

"All of you are here?"

"Back to Father-in-law Li, the inappropriate ones are here, everyone is easy to rest, and they usually stay in their own rooms."

"Where is Liu Dayou?" Gonggong Li asked. "In which room is he?"

A little eunuch who shared the same room with Liu Dayou said, "He was in the same room with me, and today he said that he changed shifts with someone and didn't come back until the middle of the night." ”

Gonggong Li was suspicious, why didn't he know about the shift change, not to mention that there was no one in front of the emperor, where did he go?

His intuition told him that Liu Dayou was definitely not simple, but in order to prevent someone from ventilating the news, he didn't say anything, only severely punished all the eunuchs, and ordered them to copy the palace prohibitions a hundred times on the spot, and they were not allowed to sleep if they couldn't finish copying.

Subsequently, he went out of the Duckweed Palace, called his henchmen to stay outside the Duckweed Palace and watched, and when Liu Dayou came back, he would arrest him and interrogate him.

At this time, Xie Ruqing was dizzy again, she didn't know where there was ecstasy, anyway, she couldn't prevent it no matter how she was careful, she was in a daze, she only felt that she was stuffed into a place, and then it was dark, and she didn't know anything.

Qi Er didn't sit still all the time, and in the second half of the night, he secretly searched Yao Guifei's palace, but found nothing, and was already vaguely uneasy.

Except for Yao Guifei, he couldn't think of where his wife would be, so he couldn't dig three feet into the ground to find it.

He didn't know if it was going well on Qi Da's side, whether King Qiyang had entered the palace or not, if only the emperor could order a search clearly. I'm afraid it's hard to find him alone.

Just when Qi Er was about to leave first, he suddenly saw someone coming out of the side room, it was two eunuchs, they carried a big wooden box out, and they didn't know what was inside.

On alert, Qi Er planned to follow them to take a look, after all, it was not normal to carry out a box at night, so he followed all the way, and then he was surprised to find that there were people answering all the way, there were eunuchs and guards, and they were all serving Yao Guifei?

This big box, originally wanted to be carried out will definitely attract people's attention, but who knows that no one paid attention to its strange appearance at all, as if this box should be moved out of the palace at this time.

At this time, the eyeliner guarding outside the duckweed palace successfully caught Liu Dayou, who returned late, and he could hardly resist anything, so he was brought to Gonggong Li.

"Liu Dayou." Gonggong Li glanced at him, "What are you busy with this big night?" ”

Liu Dayou was not flustered, and replied calmly: "Back to Master Li, I will help a little brother take up his post at night." ”

"Oh? What brother, what job? Gonggong Li stared at him and asked.

Liu Dayou said: "It's a fellow countryman, he is not in good health, and he will be tired at night, so he will occasionally ask me to help him for a while. ”

Gonggong Li snorted: "You are warm-hearted, which palace is he in, why didn't he report it?" ”

"Gonggong Li, he is in charge of pouring the night pot in Concubine Yao's palace, you also know that this kind of thing is a matter of rice after all, if you say it, you will be unhappy, in case you are kicked out of the palace, it will be over. I thought that saving someone's life was also a virtue, so I helped him a few times. ”

"You're pretty good at being a human being." Gonggong Li snorted coldly in his heart, the eunuch who poured the night pot was the most unqualified, Liu Dayou was a powerful eunuch in front of the emperor, and his identity was there, how could he not afford to be early, and ran to help others pour the night pot.

"If you can help, you can help, you can say it."

"Then go and call your fellow." Gonggong Li ordered someone to call the fellow in his mouth.

The fellow really didn't look very good, he was very thin, and he looked like he couldn't support him, he saw Gonggong Li turn his legs and stomach, and knelt down tremblingly and said, "I've seen it, I've seen Master Li." ”

Gonggong Li was angry when he saw him like this, he directly asked him to confront Liu Dayou, Liu Dayou didn't deceive people, it was indeed this little eunuch who changed shifts with him.

Everything seemed to be fine, but Li Gong didn't believe that there was really no problem, he thought about it and suddenly said, "What are you going to do in the afternoon?" ”

He originally intended to ask Liu Dayou this question, but he didn't name them, just to blow up the two of them, the little eunuch really trembled and replied, "Go back to Lord Li, the little one is brushing the thatched house." ”

At the same time, Liu Dayou said: "The small one is in office. ”

"Who can testify?"

Little Eunuch: "No, no one. ”

Liu Dayou: "Lai Shun can testify to me." ”

Gonggong Li's face sank. "What a bold man, he dares to lie!" He pointed at Liu Dayou and said: "When you were you, you pretended to preach the holy decree outside the palace gate, should you do it yourself?" It's not really recruited! ”

"Why did Master Li say this, the little one is really in the palace, you are a hundred guts to take me, and I don't dare to fake the holy decree, you don't see what I usually do, I have never done anything unconscionable."

"I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, come and send him to the prison to suffer a little."

"Lord Li, Lord atone." The little eunuch trembled and said, "Yesterday I falsely delivered the holy decree. I ......"

"You're stupid to me!" Gonggong Li lost his patience, he smashed the tea bowl on the little eunuch's head, "You can think about it, if you confess, your concubine master will suffer." ”

The little eunuch shut up.

"Take it down and interrogate it!"

Gonggong Li dealt with Liu Dayou, and he had a general decision in his heart, so he hurried to report the situation to the emperor.

The emperor has already called Qi Da and Ruhuan, and asked Ruhuan about the original words, Ruhuan said that the eunuch passed the word Mrs. was left by Yao Guifei, and she got the emperor's permission, because it was the eunuch around the emperor who passed the message, and described the appearance of that person, not Liu Dayou.

"Your Majesty, Liu Dayou has been arrested and interrogated by me, it is about Concubine Yao, and the slaves are very cautious." Gonggong Li said.

"How unreasonable!" The emperor seems to be unable to hold back, and wants to go to Yao Guifei's palace to find someone as soon as possible, after all, it is Qi Yanzhi's woman, if there is a mistake, that kid will definitely not give up.

But there is no point in going to her without any evidence, Yao Guifei will not admit it, in case she is wronged, it will not end well, after all, she is not Concubine Yan.

"Father," the crown prince said suddenly, "the retainer suspects that this is a conspiracy. ”

The emperor was stunned, "How do you say this?" ”

The crown prince explained: "Father, who would leave Mrs. Qingyang in the palace at this time for no reason? Or is it not a stay at all, it is a kidnapping? ”

The emperor was thoughtful, "You mean? ”

"Father, Mrs. Qingyang Marquis has never been evil to others, what kind of grudge can there be, the only thing that is suspicious is that Marquis Qingyang is on the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang, and someone wants to take his wife with bad intentions."

The emperor's face sank, he hadn't thought about it so seriously before, thinking that who had some grudge with Mrs. Qingyang Hou, so he was embarrassed by her in private, but when the prince said this, he had to think deeply.

Yes, Qi Yanzhi is on the battlefield, if he captures Xie Ruqing, he can threaten him, what can he do with him? Do you want to ask Northern Xinjiang to retreat, or do you simply want Qi Yanzhi's life?

If it's the latter, it's fine, it's just that some people are jealous of Qi Yanzhi's favor, but if it's the former......

"Father, the sons and daughters think that it is urgent to find Mrs. Qingyang Hou." The prince said, "Erchen thinks that this matter is not pure, do you think, at this time, Qingyang Hou is still on the battlefield, what is the purpose of arresting his wife, what if it is to force Qingyang Hou to do something?" Isn't that tantamount to joking with the lives of front-line soldiers, Qingyang Hou and Yu Ning easily won a few battles, and it seems that there is hope to recover the northern frontier, but don't let some people's selfishness interfere. ”

The prince can't afford to be early, of course he won't go into the palace to find Xie Ruqing in order to give Qi Zhiyuan a favor, he thought of the conspiracy behind this, and it is very likely that it is related to Yao Guifei, so he took the opportunity to take the opportunity to take advantage of the fisherman. Yao Guifei's purpose is naturally not Qingyang Hou, her purpose is Lao Jiu, this girl is against Lao Jiu, it is best to lose both, if not, it is good to just let Yao Guifei fall off the horse, without this dead woman to make waves, the three princes are not a threat at all.

Therefore, the crown prince is trying to make the emperor break with Yao Guifei, regardless of whether she really detained Xie Ruqing, as long as the emperor suspects, she will slowly fall out of favor sooner or later.

It makes sense for the emperor to listen to the prince's words, and the purpose of detaining his wife at this time is self-evident, that is, to interfere with Qi Yanzhi and Yu Ning, too many people don't want Yu Ning to come back alive.

The old lady of Yufu also echoed at this time: "Your Majesty, the old woman thinks that the prince is right, at this time, she dares to openly detain Ruqing, the purpose must not be simple, the old woman thinks that she must find it quickly, in case the other party secretly sends Ruqing out of the palace, but it will be too late." ”

The emperor finally realized that the matter was urgent, and immediately planned to go to Yao Guifei to ask for someone in person.

"Come on, follow me to the concubine, don't alarm anyone." The emperor called King Qiyang and they are waiting here, and he and Gonggong Li went to Yao Guifei alone.

Yao Guifei has been sleeping early recently, and she has rested early, and the girls who are keeping vigil have nothing to do, so they lie on the table and take a nap, and no one noticed when the emperor came up.

When the emperor saw the concubine here, she was quiet and didn't look like she had any conspiracy, and she couldn't help beating the drum in her heart, would she have wronged the concubine?

"Your Majesty!" Yao Guifei's personal maid was shocked that the emperor arrived, and she jumped up from the table and knelt down to beg for mercy in fright, "The emperor forgives the sin, it was the slave who accidentally fell asleep and neglected the emperor, and the emperor please forgive." ”

The emperor waved his hand and told her to get up, "How is the concubine today?" ”

The palace maid said: "Back to the emperor, the concubine said that she was not feeling well when she came back from the birthday banquet today, and the slave said that she wanted to invite the imperial doctor to take a look, and the concubine said that there was no need to make too much noise, and she rested after eating a bowl of porridge." ”

The emperor frowned, it sounded nothing unusual, so is Xie Ruqing here in the concubine?

"Your Majesty, the slave is going to call the concubine up, you wait a minute."

The emperor raised his hand: "No need, I ask you, can you see Mrs. Qingyang Marquis today." ”’

"Mrs. Qingyang Hou?" The palace maid thought for a while, "I saw it at the birthday banquet, and then she was called away and never came back." ”

"Who called you away?" The emperor asked.

"The slave didn't take a closer look, and at first glance, it looked like a lawsuit aunt in Concubine Yan's palace."

Concubine Yan? Why is Concubine Yan involved again?

"Your Majesty," Concubine Yao suddenly got up and came out of the inner room, "Why did the emperor come suddenly?" She turned to reprimand the palace maid, "Not sensible, why didn't you call me when the emperor came?" ”

"You got up, I didn't let her call you." The emperor looked at the concubine, "I see that you don't look very good, but what's uncomfortable?" ”

"The emperor is worried, the concubine is fine, but she is tired, just sleep for a while." Yao Guifei said, "I don't know what the emperor has to say when he comes late at night, do you want to spend the night?" ”

"There is no need to spend the night," said the emperor, "I just came to see if the Marquis of Qingyang was there." ”

"Mrs. Qingyang Hou?" Concubine Yao was surprised, "She's still in the palace?" ”

"yes, I don't know which palace kept her." The emperor looked at Yao Guifei inquiringly, "The concubine is in charge of the harem, did you ever know?" ”

Yao Guifei looked puzzled: "Didn't you call Concubine Yan's sister?" ”

"What did Concubine Yan tell her to do?" The emperor was completely confused, if Concubine Yan called her, this would not be the same as conjecture, could it be that the idea was wrong?

"The emperor doesn't know, I heard that Mrs. Qingyang Hou is dressed very special today, and the ladies and ladies of all families, including Concubine Yan, are very appreciative, and the concubines think that Concubine Yan wants to ask her about her clothes and jewelry in private." Yao Guifei said unhurriedly, "You also know that we women are all easy to dress up, especially Sister Yanfei, who has recently been favored by you, and pays the most attention to these things." ”

The emperor groaned and immediately asked Gonggong Li to arrange for someone to go to Concubine Yan's palace to find him.

At the same time, Yu Jun intercepted a large wooden box at the gate of the palace, and after inspection, it was found to be a box of gold and silver jewelry. He immediately went to the emperor in person to report, the emperor was not in the study, and the little eunuch who received the news came to the palace of the concubine to report.

Gonggong Li heard the news and felt that the situation was serious, so he told the emperor truthfully, and the emperor was surprised, there were still people in the palace who did such a thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs?

"Which palace is it?" The emperor asked in front of Concubine Yao.

"The report said that it was two guards in Concubine Yan's palace, and the two of them intended to sell the palace guards to sneak out of the palace, but they were stopped by Lord Yu."

Concubine Yan again? Is this woman a ghost?

"Quickly ask someone to bring Concubine Yan." The emperor commanded.

Grandpa Li: "Did you bring it here?" ”

"Then what else!" The emperor glared at him.

Gonggong Li just felt that it was a bit inappropriate to bring Yao Guifei here, but he didn't dare to refute it, so he went down to bring Concubine Yan over in person.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry, maybe you wronged Concubine Yan's sister." Yao Guifei made a cup of tea for the emperor. Warm channel.

Wronged or not, the emperor's troubles are true, this Mrs. Qingyang Hou didn't find it, and she was involved in such a bad thing, which made her more and more headaches.

Concubine Yan was even more inexplicable, she was driven away from the banquet by the emperor during the day, and she was inexplicably forced by the prince, and just drank the avoidance soup and fell asleep, but the guards came to search, saying that she had hidden someone.

"How unreasonable!" Concubine Yan was annoyed by being wronged, she didn't know what she had done wrong, and everyone came to step on her today, "Who gave you the courage to search the dormitory of this palace in the middle of the night, what evidence do you have to say that I hid someone!" ”

"Concubine Yan, it was ordered by the emperor." The guard showed no mercy, and waved his hand to call someone to search, "Give me a careful search, and anything that shouldn't be here must be found and submitted!" ”

"What do you mean something that shouldn't be here?" Concubine Yan is simply alive and dead. "You're just saying I shouldn't be here?"

After about a quarter of an hour, a lot of jewelry and precious cloth were found, and the guards packed them all and carried them to Yao Guifei's courtyard.

When the emperor saw these things, he was angry, "Where did this come from?" ”

Concubine Yan knelt on the ground and said with a sob: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that these are all your rewards for your concubines, otherwise where would I have these private collections?" ”

The emperor choked for a moment, and then remembered that he had favored Concubine Yan some time ago, and he had rewarded a lot of things casually.

"But why did you take out what I had rewarded you?" The emperor was very puzzled, Concubine Yan didn't have to worry about food and clothing in the palace, did she still have to sell things to survive?

Concubine Yan was stunned for a moment, and she didn't understand what the emperor was saying at all, "When did I ship things?" ”

"You didn't transport the gold, silver, and jewelry out of the palace?" The emperor thought she was quibbling and didn't want to admit it, "Whose box is the box stopped at the gate of the palace?" ”

"What is the box at the gate of the palace, what did you say, Your Majesty?" Concubine Yan is simply confused, she has been in trouble all day today, where is she still in the mood to transport any boxes.

The emperor really saw the hell, and he immediately asked Gonggong Li to call Yu Jun and the two eunuchs to confront him.

Yao Guifei persuaded on the side: "Your Majesty, don't worry, maybe there is some misunderstanding, I know what Concubine Yan's sister is, she is virtuous and knowledgeable, how can she do such a thing, it must be a mistake." ”

Although Concubine Yan didn't know what was going on, she was instinctively wary of Concubine Yao now, and this woman still had the kindness to say good things for her? I don't know what to do with her.

After a while, Yu Jun pressed the two little eunuchs over, and Liu Dayou came with them, and the three eunuchs knelt on the ground side by side.

When Concubine Yan saw the two eunuchs, she chuckled in her heart, "Why are you two here?" ”

These two eunuchs were from Concubine Yan's palace, and Concubine Yan didn't know why they were suddenly kneeling here, but she was sure that she didn't ask them to do anything.

The emperor had a calm face: "Yu Jun, you tell her what happened." ”

"Concubine Yan," Yu Jun said, "these two people were caught by the minister at the gate of the palace, when they were carrying a large wooden box and trying to sneak out of the palace, but they were detained by the minister, and after inspection, the box was full of gold and silver jewelry from the palace. ”

Concubine Yan was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the two eunuchs, "You two actually stole my things?" ”

It's not that she started to cover up anything, but her first reaction was like this, because she didn't ask anyone to transport gold and silver jewelry out of the palace, it could only be stolen by two eunuchs.

"Concubine Yan, how can you say that about us?" The little eunuch looked at Concubine Yan in surprise, as if they had been greatly slandered, "Obviously, you asked us to transport it out of the palace and sell it, why don't you admit it now?" ”

"I told you to go out of the palace and sell it?" Concubine Yan was simply alive, "What should I do to tell you to go out of the palace and sell it, this is what the emperor rewarded me, my baby is too late, what to sell, and I am not short of silver?" ”

"Concubine Yan, haven't you been sure that these things are yours at a glance?" Yu Jun interjected and asked.

Concubine Yan was stunned for a moment, and Fang reacted that she seemed to have been trapped. She didn't look at how she knew that the thing was hers, and she clearly didn't admit herself.

"Concubine Yan, you are so disappointed!" The emperor was not very patient, and when he heard this, he immediately slapped the table angrily, "What else do you have to say!" ”
