"What do you think?" The emperor couldn't see emotion on his face, but asked lightly.

Unexpectedly, the emperor asked such a sentence, and the person who originally wanted to speak shrank slightly.

"Your Majesty, according to the minister, this matter is very strange, the biggest suspicion is that General Yongding Marquis Fu Jing is the one who led the troops to destroy the distant country, and the minister believes that no matter what, the Yongding Marquis Mansion will not collude with the distant country."

Now that this is the case, Mrs. Wen settled down and continued.

"yes, yes! That's a big enemy! ”

"It is said that General Jing's battle was very tragic back then!"

"If I were the Marquis of Yongding, I wouldn't be so stupid as to collude with the enemy."

“……”

The ministers below whispered, and from time to time a sentence or two of opinion came out.

The emperor smiled coldly and looked at Mrs. Wen: "Wen Aiqing is very clear about the ins and outs of the matter. ”

In the events of that night, the emperor did not announce the city to the outside world, only said that the Yongding Marquis Mansion was involved in the murder of the Son of Heaven.

When Mrs. Wen heard this, his forehead sweated, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Back to Your Majesty, this matter has been spread all over the streets and alleys, and the minister also heard about it from the outside." ”

"Oh?" Glancing at the hundred officials with interest, "It's spread all over?!" ”

"Yes!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good!" The guards guarding outside the Qianqing Palace suddenly trotted in.

"What's so flustered?"

"Yonghe Palace is a bad thief."

"What? What about Yi Guifei? ”

The emperor's face changed drastically, and it was clear that he cared more about Concubine Yi than anything else.

"...... Didn't you come to see Your Majesty? The guard said that his voice unconsciously lowered.

Because obviously, what he thinks is wrong.

"Bastard," the emperor was furious when he heard this, "you actually let the thieves into the palace, not to mention, but also let Yi Guifei be robbed!" What's the use of keeping you shit?! ”

When the guard heard this, he only trembled below.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and find someone?!"

The originally solemn court was suddenly in chaos, and everyone could see that the emperor was furious this time.

Trespassing into the palace is a big crime, and it is also a big deal for the palace to be trespassed.

It was about the safety of the emperor and the concubine, so the courtiers did not leave, but followed the emperor to Yonghe Palace.

The commander of the Praetorian Guard was still guarding in front of the Yonghe Palace, and when he saw the emperor and the ministers coming together, he was also trembling with fright.

"See Your Majesty! Your Majesty is safe. ”

The uniform call did not make the emperor's face change in the slightest: "What's the matter? What about Yi Guifei? ”

The commander is not a fool, the emperor asked like this, and naturally knew that Duanmu Zhu did not go to see him as Concubine De said.

Such a big crime, a small Praetorian Guard commander would never dare to take it on his own.

Immediately, I explained everything that happened today.

"Concubine De?!"

As early as when the commander explained what had happened, someone went to inform Concubine De.

Therefore, when the emperor was furious, she happened to hurry over, although it was still early and there was not a trace of heat, but a thin bead of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"The concubine is here!"

Seeing the woman who hurried over, the emperor asked in a deep voice, "Why did you tell them that Concubine Yi went to me?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Concubine De couldn't help but shake her body, and the steps on her head swayed.

The emperor is not a person without eyesight, how can he not doubt when he sees her reaction like this, his voice becomes more and more cold: "Don't lie, make it clear to me one by one." ”

Concubine De's expression became more and more nervous, and the handkerchief in her hand was crumpled.

"Back to ...... His Majesty...... Your Majesty, concubines...... Concubine ......"

Standing in everyone's eyes, Concubine De was a "concubine" for a long time, and she couldn't say why.

"What are your intentions?"

If the emperor was just unhappy before, he was really angry at this moment.

Concubine De was so frightened that her legs were weak and she fell to the ground: "The concubine's heart for Your Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon, and there is absolutely no misconduct!" ”

"What the hell is going on here?"

Concubine De raised her head slightly, swept around the people present, her eyes were timid, and she seemed to be very afraid.

"It's about Concubine Yi's safety, what do you have to worry about? If Concubine Yi has three long and two short, I will let you bury her! ”

When she said this, Concubine De's heart trembled, and there was a slight "click".

It was the sound of nails clenching to the ground, breaking.

This is her position in the emperor's heart, how many years of time, in exchange, but that's it!

At the same time, Zhao Yuhong, who was standing among the courtiers, was also shocked.

Even if he had always known that the most ruthless emperor was the most ruthless family, he still felt a pain in his heart when the emperor decided his mother's words so rashly.

"Concubine, don't let the Praetorian Guards in because ......"

Halfway through speaking, Concubine De paused, raised her head to touch the emperor's cold eyes, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "Because the concubine received a secret report, Concubine Yi Guifei ...... Settle with people! ”

The last four words seemed to be squeezed out of between her teeth, which shows how difficult it was for her to say them.

The emperor was stunned on the spot, completely unexpecting that Concubine De would say such a thing from her mouth.

The ministers were also quiet, and no one dared to move.

They were standing here at this moment because they were comforting the Emperor of Concern.

But at this time, this matter has touched the emperor's face, and they are standing here this time, seeming to ...... Something always seems wrong.

Concubine De was worried in her heart, and suddenly her collar was pulled up, and the whole person was lifted.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw the emperor's magnified angry face: "What did you say? ”

"Concubine...... The concubine is telling the truth! ”

At this moment, Concubine De felt that she really saw the killing intent in this man's eyes.

This kind of realization made her feel desolate in her heart.

"You'd better not play any tricks, or I'll make your death ugly!"

The hand holding her collar suddenly let go, and Concubine De suddenly fell to the ground.

The pain in her elbow almost brought her to tears.

"Mother!"

Zhao Yuhong didn't care if he was suitable to appear at this time, and quickly rushed to Concubine De.

Carefully helped her up: "How are you?" ”

Just these four words made Concubine De's heart revive immediately, after all, the person in front of her was the most important thing in her life: "I'm fine." ”

"Someone!" The emperor no longer looked at Concubine De, nor did he look at Zhao Yuhong, and he didn't say anything about him rushing over in disregard of etiquette.

"Give me a careful search of the entire Yonghe Palace, and I can't let go of any of them!"

When the commander of the Praetorian Guard, who was worried that he would be blamed, heard this, he immediately took the order and trotted in with his people.

"You'd better not think about it, or I'll make you repent!"

After the emperor said this, Concubine De realized that she was saying it to herself, but when she raised her head, the man's eyes all fell to the gate of Yonghe Palace.

In the midst of everyone's anxiety, the commander of the Praetorian Guard finally ran out sweating profusely, his face unspeakably ugly.

"Back to Your Majesty, I found a few unknown letters and some objects."

Speaking of which, the commander of the Praetorian Guard is really a talent, and even if he says that the letters are unknown, they are very clear at this time.

For he had been held up on a delicate tray, and the letters on it were clearly written in red.

The red note is a special love letter between lovers, from a Qinglou woman decades ago.

The woman has a good literary style, and she is also a wonderful person, and she doesn't like to use Yunxuan with others in general, so she uses impatiens juice to specially make this kind of paper and use it to talk to Ai Lang.

But at the same time, because of this woman's identity, her lovers are naturally not single aristocrats.

So even though the cloud paper is exquisite, it always has a sneaky flavor.

At this time, those who did not know this thing could see it at a glance.

And the other things on the tray were some fancy jewelry.

It's just that although those jewels are luxurious, they definitely don't come from the hands of the Treasures Bureau.

Therefore, the matter is very clear, what Concubine De said is indeed another matter, Duanmu Zhu's misconduct!

"Where did you hear from that? Why did you suddenly come to Yonghe Palace this morning? ”

The emperor did not speak, and Concubine De still did not dare to get up, but still knelt on the ground to answer his words.

"Back to Your Majesty, this matter is strange, the concubine got up this morning and found a note nailed to the bedside, and was startled, and the content on it was the matter of the concubine.

This matter is very important, but just in case, the concubine did not dare to speak out, so she came to Yonghe Palace on her own initiative.

Where do you know, you found those men in black. ”

"Where's the note?"

Concubine De hurriedly took out a neatly folded white paper from her sleeve: "The concubine knew that this matter must be addressed to His Majesty, so she always carried it with her." ”

The Emperor unfolded it and looked at it for a moment, and when he was sure that he had never seen the handwriting on it, he put it in his sleeve.

"Take a good inventory of the entire palace and find out the whereabouts of Concubine Yi for me."

"Your Majesty, something is wrong."

The matter here is not over yet, but the little eunuch who served in the Qianqing Palace ran over in a hurry.

The Emperor only felt that his temples were pounding suddenly, and today's events seemed to be one after another.

There was a feeling that something big was going to happen.

"Say!"

The eunuch immediately knelt on the ground: "Back to Your Majesty, Lord Yuan of Shuntian Mansion hurriedly ordered people to enter the palace and announced all the imperial doctors away, saying that something happened to the people from the Yongding Marquis Mansion in the prison." ”
