Emperor Duan couldn't care about this and hurried out of the hall, but was stopped by Su Mao who caught up at the critical moment, "Your Majesty, no!" ”

Su Mao had been crying for a long time, he had encountered some thrilling things by Emperor Duan's side for so many years, but none of them would hurt Su Zhi, he knelt beside Emperor Duan and pulled his sleeve tightly and didn't let go, "Your Majesty, you can't go, and Miss Dou'er never wants you to leave this huge palace city!" ”

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military and family members behind him also knelt on the ground, Emperor Duan was pulled and stopped at the door of the main hall, he was stunned and eagerly watched the figure of Duan Jingyi and his party disappear outside the palace wall before he came back to his senses, as if the blood in his body had been drained, there was no blood, he looked down at Su Mao who was kneeling beside him and said tremblingly, "She'll be fine, right?" ”

Su Mao nodded vigorously while crying, "Girl Jiren will definitely be fine if she has her own natural appearance!" ”

But the panic in their hearts was afraid that only they could understand, Emperor Duan slowly turned his head to look at the many ministers kneeling and the frightened royal family standing behind him, and said weakly, "Help me go back, there is still something I haven't done here!" ”

Su Mao hurriedly got up and helped Emperor Duan staggered back to the dragon chair slowly, at this moment Emperor Duan seemed to be ten years old, he looked at the corpse of the dead in the hall with cold eyes, and only felt that his heart was full of hatred that was about to overflow.

"Someone! Arrest and torture everyone involved in this matter today, and I will definitely find out who is behind the scenes! ”

Emperor Duan's angry voice frightened even all the people in the royal family to kneel, and then they heard the sound of the Royal Forest Army dispatching and the cries of many palace maids, and everyone in the hall was silent.

Emperor Duan then moved his gaze to Gu Xi, who had been lowering his head, and Emperor Duan opened his mouth so loudly that Gu Xi's whole body trembled violently, only to feel numb from his scalp to the soles of his feet.

"The concubine is here!"

Emperor Duan stared at her fiercely and slowly spoke, as if there was a sharp blade in every word, "Today's New Year's banquet was prepared by you, how did you manage it!" ”

"The concubine is wronged!" Gu Xi trembled like chaff in an instant, and the whole person lay on the ground, "The concubine has always carefully screened everyone for His Majesty's comfort, this person will never be a person in the palace, it must be that the Imperial Forest Army is not strictly supervised and let the thieves get in!" ”

Pei Mu happened to return to the hall again after an emergency inspection from the outside, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard Gu Xi's inexplicable framing and framing, so he opened his mouth and saluted, "Your Majesty, the minister just urgently inquired and checked it, and it was determined that this person was indeed a maid in the palace named Xiaodong, who had been in charge of passing the food and cloth dishes, and it was not someone from outside who mixed in." ”

Gu Xi was also dumbfounded when he heard this, and he was drenched in cold sweat, "Then, it must be the people of this Bing Shan country who instigated this maid, otherwise how could there be nothing to do in the palace before they came, as soon as they appeared, someone suddenly assassinated them, Your Majesty, please find out!" ”

Gu Xi had already started to bite people indiscriminately, she thought that she would be the biggest winner in this matter, but now it seems that she still underestimated Emperor Duan's feelings for the injured dancing girl, not to mention that this was an assassination in front of the emperor, which was very likely to endanger Emperor Duan's life, how could he easily understand this matter.

Now Gu Xi figured out this truth, but it was too late, she could only try her best to push the responsibility to others, but as soon as Emperor Duan moved his gaze to the envoy of the Bing Qi Kingdom, he saluted and stepped forward.

"Honorable Emperor Your Majesty, this matter is not something we did, if we really have the intention of assassinating then why do we have to take the king's most favored princess to take the risk, why not assassinate Your Majesty the Emperor and attack a woman, this matter is someone who is framing us and wants to break our alliance."

Emperor Duan's eyes were cold and cold, and he said in a deep voice, "I didn't doubt you, and I will never lose my word about the marriage contract I promised to Bing Di," After speaking, Emperor Duan looked at the person kneeling on the main hall, "Gu Xi, as the head of the harem, you are in charge of all palace affairs, and now you are guilty of such a big thing!" ”

"Concubines, concubines are guilty!"

"Please be gracious, Your Majesty!" Gu Shen suddenly rushed out and knelt straight in the center of the hall and kowtowed, "Please also ask Your Majesty to take care of it lightly for the sake of Niangniang's hard work for so many years, this huge palace lady is doing her best to take care of it every day, but this thief's mind is really unguardable, please also ask Your Majesty to take it lightly for the sake of Niangniang's exhaustion!" ”

Gu Xi instantly burst into tears when he heard the cry of his brother behind him, and raised his head pitifully and cried to Emperor Duan, "The concubine does not seek fame in her life, she only wants to serve by His Majesty's side, and it is reassuring to see that you are healthy, but today's incident is really nowhere to prevent, please spare the concubine for the sake of the concubine who has always been dedicated to you!" ”

Emperor Duan felt palpitations as soon as he remembered Su Zhi's fainting, and his eyes looked coldly at the two people who knelt down in the hall, "I forgive you, so what if the person who was assassinated today is me?" Who will forgive me! Someone! ”

Emperor Duan clenched his fist for a long time towards Su Mao beside him before finally speaking, "Spread my will, Concubine Gu's trust is in vain, and it will be a big mess, and you will immediately enter the cold palace, if you are not summoned, you will never be able to come out!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Gu Xi thought that Emperor Duan would give him a capital crime, but after hearing these words, he was shocked to realize that such a disposition made him even more uncomfortable than death, "Your Majesty is gracious!" ”

Gu Shen behind her kept kowtowing and thanking her, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty, ......"

Emperor Duan ruthlessly waved his hand and cried Gu Xi, who couldn't stop crying, was directly dragged out by the eunuchs in the palace, Duan Jingxun looked at her distant figure and narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing what new plan was brewing in his heart at this time.

Emperor Duan here couldn't help his concern for Su Zhi anymore, and he just wanted to hurry to King Yi's mansion, Emperor Duan said sharply, "I will definitely investigate today's matter thoroughly, but anyone who has clues will be rewarded once it is verified!" ”

After speaking, he left the main hall angrily under the protection of the doubled Imperial Forest Army, Emperor Duan hurriedly returned to the dormitory, and as soon as he entered the door, he hurriedly ordered Su Mao, "Quickly find out the night clothes for me, and Pei Mu will go to the Yiwang Mansion with me!" ”

"Your Majesty, you must not, if the thief still has helpers in the palace, you will be in their way if you rush to travel!"

Emperor Duan has already begun to take off his imperial clothes indiscriminately, where can he take care of these, if he doesn't let him see Su Zhi Ping Ping and be safe tonight, then he is afraid that he will not be able to live for a moment, "Ask Pei Muduo to bring some people to follow, I must see Zhi'er safe tonight." ”

"But Your Majesty ......"

"Don't go yet!"
