With this question, Jiang Zuiyao was also testing the emperor, and the emperor just replied with a faint smile: "I'm tired of criticizing the excerpts, it's not early, let's rest." ”

Jiang Zuiyao lay on the bed, letting the emperor hold her, thinking about the emperor's absent-minded face tonight.

A woman's intuition has always been accurate, and the emperor must have found out something!

She swallowed and spit, very uneasy, because the difficulty was that she didn't know what flaws the emperor had found, which was difficult to deal with.

At this moment, the emperor groaned uncomfortably, and Jiang Zuiyao asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Uncomfortable? ”

The emperor frowned and said, "Somehow, I have only felt very tired in the past few days, and I have had a headache since this afternoon. ”

Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly said, "Why don't you send the imperial doctor to come and take a look?" ”

The emperor waved his hand: "Xu is tired of the fold, it's okay, go to bed early." ”

Jiang Zuiyao knew that it must be Prince Gong's medicine that worked, the emperor ate it for a month, and no matter how slow the poison was, it should have worked.

After a while, the sound of the emperor's heavy breathing was heard.

Jiang Zuiyao was relieved, after all, the emperor didn't let her sleep tonight, which was a good thing.

But because of this, it also made Jiang Zuiyao uneasy, she obviously felt the emperor's perfunctory tonight, and the warm love for her in the past was not at all tonight.

Lying on the bed, I couldn't sleep because of this incident, but I didn't dare to move, for fear that I would wake up the sleeping emperor, so I could only lie down uncomfortably.

At this moment, Jiang Zuiyao suddenly heard a strange sound, and then saw that the back window was opened, Jiang Zuiyao was suddenly startled, thinking who it would be so late, and before he could see it clearly, he suddenly saw a fire outside the window, and before he could distinguish it, the person outside the window threw the fire into the dormitory.

There was a "pop", as if something had fallen to the ground and shattered, and then with a "boom", a fire ignited.

Where can Jiang Zuiyao still lie down, he quickly sat up and exclaimed, "It's on fire!" It's on fire! ”

The night was already silent, and the shouting was loud, which immediately woke up the sleeping emperor, and he asked in a daze: "Mu'er, did you have a nightmare?" ”

Jiang Zuiyao turned over and got out of bed, she wanted to run away, but if she ran away like this, wouldn't her lack of love for Emperor Qingguo be exposed?

In an instant, he turned around and shook His Majesty and said, "Your Majesty, get up quickly, it's on fire!" ”

This voice woke up the emperor, he turned over and looked, there was a fire in the distance of the side hall, the fire burned along the curtain, and the fire splashed everywhere!

The emperor hurriedly took Mu'er's hand and ran out, pushed open the door and roared angrily: "You group of dog minions, can't you see it when it's on fire?" ”

Only then did the minions who were keeping vigil outside see the fire in the temple and exclaimed, "Someone! It's on fire! Someone! Escort! Escort! ”

After a while, more than a dozen eunuchs and guards ran in, working together to put out the fire.

Fortunately, Jiang Zuiyao found out in time, the fire was not big, and it was quickly extinguished, but this toss was in the middle of the night, and such a big thing happened, where did he still have the heart to sleep.

first alarmed the queen to come to inquire, and then immediately followed by the queen mother.

The Queen Mother was in a hurry, and when she saw that the emperor was fine, she stroked her chest and muttered reassuringly: "Fortunately, the emperor is fine." ”

The emperor hurriedly sat down with the queen mother's hand and said: "The son is not filial, which alarms the queen mother." ”

The Queen Mother said with a panicked face: "If such a big thing happens, how can the mourning family not come?" Who was so bold as to dare to set fire to the emperor's room? ”

The queen on the side also echoed: "This matter is not trivial, and it must be investigated." ”

Attacking the emperor must have been a very serious matter, and the empress dowager immediately asked, "Who was the first to discover the fire?" ”

Jiang Zuiyao couldn't hide it, and stepped forward and said, "It's a concubine." ”

The Queen Mother didn't have a good impression of Jiang Zuiyao, but when she saw her, her face was even more ugly, and she asked angrily: "What have you seen, tell the mourning family 1510, if you dare to have a lie, the mourning family will never spare it!" ”

In the face of the Queen Mother's anger that came from nowhere, it seemed that Jiang Zuiyao set fire.

Jiang Zuiyao replied calmly: "The concubine couldn't sleep tonight, and I saw that someone opened the back window of the side hall, and the concubine thought it was a palace person who went to the night, and I wanted to find out, but I saw that the person threw a ball of fire in, and then it caught fire." ”

The queen interjected at this time: "After the queen mother, the concubine asked that the reason for the fire was that someone ignited the jar with the fire oil, and the jar smashed the fire oil and splashed it everywhere, which caused the side hall to catch fire instantly. ”

The queen then looked at Jiang Zuiyao and helped her say a good word: "Fortunately, Concubine Mu found out in time, if she fell asleep and didn't hear it, when the fire burned, she wouldn't be able to run away." ”

The Queen Mother immediately asked, "What about the palace people who went to the night?" Well? Didn't you find that there was a fire in the side hall? ”

The queen replied: "The concubine was also suspicious of this matter, and specially asked, and after inquiry, I found out that the eunuch who had been in the night was lazy and asleep, so he couldn't find out in time." ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, how could she dissipate her anger, and said angrily: "Kill that lazy dog slave!" ”

The Emperor then replied, "I have ordered the beating of the sticks to death. ”

At this time, the queen said: "The most important thing at the moment is to find out who attacked Your Majesty, if this person is not caught, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles!" ”

This is to the point, the assassin committed murder in the palace at night, but in the room where the emperor was asleep, which should not be taken lightly.

The Queen Mother asked, "Have you asked the guards?" ”

The emperor replied: "I have inquired, and the guards said that they did not find anyone in or out, and they also inquired about the palace people who were waiting in the side hall, and they all said that they did not see it." ”

The Queen Mother immediately smiled coldly: "Huh? Coming and going without a trace? How is this possible? Where did he set the fire man and run? Didn't find anything at all? ”

The emperor added: "At that time, everyone was busy putting out the fire, but they neglected this matter, and it was possible that the thief escaped." ”

The Queen Mother suddenly said angrily: "How many people can escape from your bedroom?" ”

This is true, the emperor's guards have always been strict.

The queen said at this time: "Those who can do this kind of thing are afraid that the people in the palace are afraid of it." ”

These words surprised everyone present.

The queen explained: "First of all, this person must know that His Majesty will definitely rest in the side hall tonight, and secondly, he must be very familiar with the defense of the side hall, so that he can bypass the eyes of all the guards and palace people. If it was an Assassin from outside, he would not be able to do so well in just one day, not to mention that the palace was heavily guarded, and the Assassin would never be able to hide in the palace for more than a day. ”

The queen's analysis is very reasonable, which has to make people frightened, there are people in the harem who want to kill the emperor's life, and they are afraid to think about it.
