Mrs. Yao looked suspicious behind her, she was fine, why was she in a hurry all of a sudden?

After a while, I saw Queen Yao walking in quickly, and before anyone approached, she said quickly: "Queen Mother, something is wrong!" ”

"What's the matter?" Empress Dowager Yao's face was slightly gloomy, and she was a little dissatisfied with Queen Yao's flustered behavior, "You are the queen, you must be calm and atmospheric." ”

In the eyes of Empress Dowager Yao, as the queen of the main palace, it should be Mount Tai who collapsed in front of her without changing her face, rather than panicking over a trivial matter.

Empress Yao hurriedly confessed, "The concubine knows her mistake, but she is just the queen mother, this matter is really ...... Fantastic. ”

"Unbelievable?" Empress Dowager Yao frowned.

Empress Yao then said, "The concubine looked at the Li family's expression was wrong, and always felt that she seemed to have something to say, and after going back, the concubine interrogated and found out that the Li family had a husband before marrying into the Yi family, but the husband had a thin life and died young, and the husband was none other than Huo Sijin's uncle." ”

This relationship was something that Empress Dowager Yao didn't expect, the old lady of the Yi family is her sister, but the Li family is Mrs. Yi's nephew and daughter-in-law, not her own daughter-in-law, where will the Empress Dowager Yao pay so much attention to the origin of the Li family.

Empress Dowager Yao has lived for most of her life, and she has seen a lot of things, but she doesn't feel that there is anything wrong, and after a short period of surprise, she immediately said lightly: "This dynasty has never said that women cannot marry twice, and since the Yang family has passed away and the Li family has remarried, it has nothing to do with the people in front of him." Now that she suddenly saw her relatives in front of her, it was understandable that she had lost her manners, and there was nothing to worry about. ”

"Queen Mother, this is not tight, it is tight." Empress Yao was anxious, and immediately told her about the next things, "Isn't Huo Sijin frail and sick since he was a child, so he was raised in Jiangzhou?" It was the Yang family who was taking care of her. The Li family had lived in the Yang family for a period of time, so she knew everything about Huo Sijin. The one raised in Jiangzhou is not Huo Sijin at all, the real Huo Sijin has always been in the capital. ”

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Yao's face changed slightly, "What did you say?" ”

Empress Yao's words were vague, but they reminded Empress Dowager Yao of some rumors in an instant......

According to Li's confession, the Yang family gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses that year, Huo Changjin and Huo Sijin, but Huo Changjin died before the full moon wine, and only Huo Sijin survived. Yang was afraid that his wife's status would not be guaranteed, so he took his daughter to pretend to be his son, and lied that his daughter Huo Sijin was weak and raised in Jiangzhou. ”

Empress Yao then said: "The concubine remembers that on the day Huo Changjin died, the concubine of the Huo family kept saying that Huo Changjin was pretending to be Huo Sijin, but at that time, she opened Huo Changjin's clothes, and everyone looked at it as a man, so no one believed her words." But now, the Li family also said the same, the queen mother, I am afraid that there is another truth in this matter. ”

Empress Dowager Yao squinted, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were very clear, and Empress Yao said that she also thought of this layer.

The matter of the Jingbei Hou Mansion was in an uproar, and she had heard about it, but in the past, like everyone else, she also believed that Huo Zhirou deliberately said such things to frame her brother-in-law.

Empress Dowager Yao was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Li's words may not be credible. ”

The Li family is just a distant relative, and the Empress Dowager Yao does not treat her specially, let alone trust.

"But the queen mother, Li's has no reason to frame Huo Sijin." Empress Yao's eyes flashed, "The Li family has been married into the Yi family for more than ten years, and it has nothing to do with the husband's family in front of her, so she can't be framed, right?" ”

Immediately, Empress Yao straightened her waist and said: "Queen Mother, the concubine thinks that this matter is not so simple, Huo Changjin is the son of His Majesty's admiration, my court rules, the son of the world must be a man, if she is really a woman, then it is not to deceive Your Majesty." The crime of bullying the king cannot be left unpunished. The concubine thought that this matter needed to be investigated carefully. ”

Empress Dowager Yao didn't say anything immediately, she pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "Ordained a woman as the prince, if this is true, it means that Your Majesty has seen the wrong person." And Zheng'er attaches great importance to Huo Changjin......"

At the mention of Chu Zheng, Empress Dowager Yao suddenly reacted, "Fengyu, you hurriedly came to talk to the mourning family about this, do you want to do anything to Zheng'er with this matter!" ”

Empress Dowager Yao's tone was sharp, she couldn't be clearer about the thoughts of this niece-in-law's daughter, and she didn't want to abolish Chu Zheng all the time and let her own son Chu Heng sit in the position of the prince.

Empress Yao's heart tightened, and she hurriedly denied it: "Queen Mother, the concubine has no such thoughts, you believe in the concubine, even if this matter is true, it is also the fault of Mrs. Jingbei Hou and Huo Sijin, and what does the prince have to do, he is just blinded." ”

"Don't think the mourners don't know what you're thinking." For this statement, Empress Dowager Yao did not believe it.

Empress Yao hurriedly defended, "Queen Mother, the concubine really doesn't think so, the concubine just thinks that Huo Sijin has been pretending to be a man for so long, and she has been gifted by His Majesty, and she is the chief historian of the East Palace, and she is given the title of the prince of the Hou Mansion. And the queen mother, think about it, the prince values Huo Changjin a lot, and even took out the prince's seal to support him, Huo Sijin is the sister of Huo Changjin's mother, the prince is very affectionate, and after returning to Beijing in the coming day, he has to take care of Huo Sijin. If you don't find out the truth, won't you continue to let Huo Sijin tease? ”

Saying this, it made Empress Dowager Yao have a different opinion of Empress Yao, "You really think so?" ”

Empress Yao pointed her fingers at the sky, "The concubine swears that she is never selfish, even if she is selfish, it is for the face of our royal family." ”

"Queen Mother, there is no impermeable wall under the sky, Li knows it, and maybe others also know it. At this moment, let's check, if the result is really like this, then it can be regarded as the royal family's clear eyes, it is better than one day spitting out the truth from the mouths of others, only to know that His Majesty and the crown prince have been deceived for many times. ”

Empress Yao never leaves the royal family's face, and what Empress Dowager Yao cares about the most is this. She thought about it with a calm face, and then said, "This matter needs to be investigated, but don't make a big fuss yet." ”

Subsequently, Empress Dowager Yao instructed again: "Don't tell Your Majesty yet." Huo Changjin died, but His Majesty specially ordered to be appeased, if the Li family did not tell the truth, it would definitely provoke His Majesty's anger, and the Yi family would also be implicated at that time. You go, check quietly, and if you find any clues, you must report to the mourning family, and you are not allowed to make decisions without permission. ”

Although Empress Yao said it from the bottom of her heart, whether there was any selfishness in it, Empress Dowager Yao was not sure. However, for the sake of royal face, it must be investigated, but how to investigate and deal with it, Empress Dowager Yao must personally ask.

Queen Yao should come down one by one, "The concubines all listen to the queen mother." ”

……

Huo Sijin didn't know what happened in the palace, and after coming out of Fushou Palace, Concubine Huo Xian pulled her and said a lot of things, which meant nothing more than to win her over. After spending a lot of lips and tongues, Xu saw that she should not do anything, Concubine Huo Xian showed disappointment, and then asked the palace people to send her out of the palace, and did not forget to let her think about it when she left.

Huo Sijin really thought that Concubine Huo Xian asked her to enter the palace to win her over, so she didn't think much about it. It wasn't until two days later that someone in the palace came again to announce her entry into the palace.

The person who came this time was the chamberlain of Fushou Palace.

Empress Dowager Yao summoned her, as well as her mother, Yang.

In the past, the Marquis of Jingbei favored his concubine and killed his wife, and the Empress Dowager Yao had helped the Yang family, so in Yang's heart, the Empress Dowager was a kind and gentle person, and the Yang family was not nervous about this summons, so she smiled decently and got into the carriage of the palace with Huo Sijin.

"The Queen Mother is a very good person, I should have said hello to the Mother Niang a long time ago."

Yang smiled and told Huo Sijin about the things that Empress Dowager Yao had helped her in the past, but she saw Huo Sijin pursing her lips, looking stunned, and seemed to be full of thoughts.

"Jin'er, why don't you speak, are you not feeling well?" Yang asked with concern.

Huo Sijin shook his head, "It's nothing. ”

Afraid that the Yang family would think too much, Huo Sijin then hurriedly added, "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night." ”

Although Huo Sijin was smiling, he was actually very uneasy, after two days, Empress Dowager Yao summoned her again, and announced that she would enter the palace immediately, and she would not even give time to freshen up, Empress Dowager Yao is a person who attaches great importance to etiquette and rules, how could she be in such a hurry?

She always felt that something unexpected was waiting for her in the palace......
