Chapter 138: The Prince's Birthday
When Chu Jingshu saw the emperor, her face immediately turned pale, and she couldn't say anything clearly: "Emperor, when will the emperor ......?"
The Lord Protector hurriedly pulled her to her knees and spoke for her: "The little girl lost her mother, so she didn't choose to say anything for a while, please don't blame the emperor." ”
The emperor swept over with cold eyes, and seemed to be unmoved: "When the fourth prince and the second lady are here, why don't you see the protector speak publicly?"
Hearing the emperor's annoyance, the protector didn't dare to answer casually, and the emperor left angrily, and was seen by Lu Yuanbai and Chi Yingchu.
The carriage of the palace had already returned, and the two of them were standing in the inconspicuous alley, her eyes were puzzled, just Lu Yuanbai didn't let her go, just to show her this?
She didn't see anything strange, if Chu Jingshu offended the emperor, would she be able to completely fall out of favor? Shouldn't it, the emperor still has to take care of the Protector's Mansion to some extent.
"What does the prince want to tell me, you might as well say it directly, my mind can't turn for a while, and I can't guess or understand it. ”
Lu Yuanbai glanced at her, and snorted coldly in his throat: "This king didn't let you guess, this is what this king wants you to see, this king wants you to know what the emperor and the country you have been guarding are!"
"Then the prince asked me to come, just to meet the emperor?" she suddenly couldn't understand.
He nodded, not letting her guess any further: "Just for this, not for anything else." ”
"The prince is so bothered, I don't want to lose face, just see how the prince performs and exposes the true face of the emperor. ”
She said it easily, in fact, she had a hunch in her heart more than once, the emperor is not as simple as it seems, but Lu Yuanbai will not be clean.
Lu Yuanbai didn't get angry or anything else because of her reaction, he just waited to see the day when the truth was revealed, would she be so disappointed that she cried?
Until the end of the eldest lady's funeral, the emperor never came again, and he didn't believe that Lu Yuanbai would take Chu Yimiao over that day and would do nothing.
But later, people investigated many times, and they really couldn't find any clues.
However, Lu Yuanbai was only for the test this time, he really didn't do anything else, and the secret guards sent out followed him for a few days, and finally waited for the opportunity to start.
The man in black rested in a forest, and when he saw a hare running in the depths of the forest, he wanted to fight two of them, but the secret guard took the opportunity to stab him with a sword.
The man in black was alert to dodge, and the speed of detection was very fast, and he couldn't help but sneer: "It's Lu Yuanbai's person, I have fought with you before, and I won't be unrecognizable." ”
The guard didn't answer his words, and slammed his palm at the left side of his face, and he turned his head to dodge, turning his palm into a claw, and unmasking the human skin mask at once.
Although the other party deliberately covered it, his facial features still couldn't be hidden, and the secret guard saw that it was Zhu Qingliu, and he was about to leave with a human skin mask.
Zhu Qingliu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he chased after him to kill him, but was stopped by a voice behind him: "No need to chase, the emperor has more important things to explain to you." ”
Zhu Qingliu stopped when he heard the words and followed him back.
Lu Yuanbai's brows tightened, it was Zhu Qingliu who really killed the eldest lady, and the person who talked to him that night should be fake.
The human skin mask was the emperor's specialty.
"This king should have thought of it a long time ago!" he threw the human skin mask on the table, and sneered sarcastically, it was obvious that the emperor had executed someone, and he had to frame himself.
"What should I do if I wish Qingliu to live?"
Lu Yuanbai opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of violence: "Kill, the people who this king can't tolerate shouldn't live in this world." ”
He did this as the emperor intended.
The next day, Zhu Qingliu spread the news of his death, and as for the truth, he had restored his former identity, the emperor's original guard.
The real Zhu Qingliu was gone long before Qinglu died, and everything was just the emperor's conspiracy, just to deal with Lu Yuanbai.
Chu Jingshu couldn't wait for the emperor to send someone to pick her up, so she had to go back by herself, but she saw the emperor for the first time in the palace, and the people around the palace were all sent back.
"I have found out, Zhu Qingliu is the real murderer who killed your mother, if it weren't for his accidental death, I will definitely help you get justice, don't be angry with me, okay?"
The emperor grabbed her hand and comforted her softly, Chu Jingshu was a little flattered: "The concubine won't blame the emperor, you ......"
"That's fine," the emperor said with warmth in his eyes, brushing her broken hair behind her ears with gentle movements, "I have lifted your grounding, you are still my favorite concubine, and no one can compare with you." ”
"It's rare for me to be free today, so I'm just with you. ”
"The emperor is good to his concubines, and the concubines all remember it. Chu Jingshu lowered her head shyly, always feeling that she was different in the emperor's heart.
At night, the emperor glanced at the sleeping person beside him, there was no tenderness in his eyes, and he got up and left with his clothes on.
“**。 The emperor called, and it was the person who pretended to be Zhu Qingliu before.
"The subordinates are here. "Emerge from the night.
"You have dealt with Lu Yuanbai a lot, how much do you know about the Four Princes' Mansion? If I give you a new identity and let you get close to him, will you be recognized?"
"When his subordinates were in the Four Kings' Mansion, he was always watched, so he didn't have a chance to start, but he wouldn't be recognized by him again. ”
** Answered without hesitation, thinking that the woman died in his arms that night, he couldn't help but be a little touched.
The emperor was silent, and after a moment he answered in a deep voice: "You step back first, and I'll tell you after I think about it." ”
When Chu Jingshu woke up, she didn't even know how the emperor left, so she had to ask the palace people around her and saw the emperor walking away towards her.
"Your Majesty......" She wanted to salute and was held down by the emperor.
"You worked hard last night, I didn't let anyone wake you up, I will have to go to court early later, you can wait for me to go to court, or you can solve it yourself. ”
"Yes. Chu Jingshu thought of last night, and her face was shy again.
She has now figured it out, the emperor's favor is important, but the child is her capital in the palace, and she must conceive the emperor's heir as soon as possible.
Without her mother to help her, she would be on her own.
As soon as the emperor left, she summoned the imperial doctor to look at her body, and after the imperial doctor finished checking the pulse, her face changed a little, and she asked impatiently: "What's the matter?"
"Say whatever you want, you won't even understand this truth, right? Or is this palace not giving you benefits and unwilling to do things for this palace?"
The imperial doctor shook his head in a panic, and his voice trembled slightly: "Niangniang is in good health, and it is only a matter of time before she becomes pregnant, but it also depends on fate." ”
"You mean the time has not yet come?" Chu Jingshu asked rhetorically, "Then when do you think it will arrive?"
"This ......" The imperial doctor couldn't speak again, and was kicked out by Chu Jingshu.
The palace people hesitated for a while, thinking that if the master was good, his life would be better, so he stepped forward and said cautiously: "Niangniang, I heard that there is a miracle doctor in Shangjing, who cures all diseases......"
Chu Jingshu was about to move after hearing this, and immediately asked people to look around.
The people in the palace were talking, saying that Lu Yuanbai's birthday was coming, how to do it then, she subconsciously blurted out: "He also has a birthday?"
A cold male voice came from behind: "Listening to what you mean, it seems that the king should not have a birthday." ”
"The prince heard it wrong!" she chuckled in her heart.
Lu Yuanbai sneered: "This king is not so easy to fool!"
