Chapter 666: Key Surveillance Targets
The people brought by the Empress Dowager immediately went inside to search, and the originally quiet Qiankun Palace was very lively at this time, and it seemed a little noisy.
The Empress Dowager looked at those people rummaging through the cabinets in the Qiankun Palace, but she always had a smile on her face, as if she was not at all guilty, and the Empress Dowager saw it and felt very uncomfortable.
When the Empress Dowager turned around, the Empress Dowager said to the pearl beside her: "Pearl, you immediately go to the imperial study and invite His Majesty the Emperor to come here." β
"Yes!"
Pearl immediately ran out, and the people brought by the Empress Dowager were all searching carefully, and they didn't notice that such a person had run out.
When the Empress Dowager was in a hurry to search the Qiankun Palace, Pearl had already run to the front of the imperial study at her fastest speed, grabbed the little eunuch who was guarding the door with her acquaintance, and spoke before she could catch her breath: "Quick, go and tell Your Majesty that the Empress Dowager has gone to Qiankun Palace with people to make trouble, and she has to search Qiankun Palace!" β
The little eunuch was stunned for a moment, and nodded again and again: "I'll go in and tell you right away." β
Pearl also followed him in, and when he saw Jiang Qiancheng, Pearl hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother invites you to go to Qiankun Palace, the Queen Mother is searching in Qiankun Palace at this time, saying that Princess Qingjia's disappearance has something to do with the Queen Mother!" β
Jiang Qiancheng subconsciously frowned, what is the Empress Dowager doing, how can she run to find trouble with the Empress Dowager!
But the most tricky thing is that now Princess Qingjia is really locked up in the secret room of Qiankun Palace, if the Empress Dowager is allowed to search for the slightest clue, this matter will not be easy to do!
So Jiang Qiancheng immediately got up: "Drive the Qiankun Palace!" β
"Yes!"
When Jiang Qiancheng led people to Qiankun Palace, the Empress Dowager was sitting in the Empress Dowager's dormitory waiting for the results of the search.
The Queen Mother's face was flat, and she even had a slight smile, drinking tea while talking to the Queen Mother, she didn't look like she was a little weak-hearted, and she didn't have any obstacles to those people who searched around the Qiankun Palace.
The Empress Dowager was a little surprised: "The mourning family searched around in the Qiankun Palace and messed up a lot of things, but the Empress Dowager was calm and sat here from beginning to end." β
"Princess Qingjia's disappearance has nothing to do with the palace, and she is not in the Qiankun Palace, so the palace naturally doesn't need to worry about anything."
"But the last person Princess Qingjia saw after her disappearance was you, if this matter has nothing to do with you, the mourning family will never believe it!"
"Did the Empress Dowager misunderstand something?"
The Empress Dowager frowned: "What do you mean?" β
"The people Princess Qingjia saw before her disappearance were not the main palace, not those people in the Yanguo Post House, the main palace specially sent someone to send her back at that time, and the people in the post house saw it with their own eyes, and then she disappeared, and the palace really doesn't know why this matter has something to do with the palace!"
ββ¦β¦β
The Empress Dowager's action of drinking tea paused slightly, and if she wanted to say so, it seemed to make some sense, but now that the people on the side of the Yanguo Post House have died, no one has proved whether what the Empress Dowager said is true or not.
Seeing that the Empress Dowager was still a little suspicious, the Empress Dowager was not in a hurry, so she sat there quietly and waited, although Princess Qingjia was indeed in her Qiankun Palace, but it was not easy to find the secret room.
And just when the Empress Dowager's mood became a little anxious, Jiang Qiancheng came.
"Your Majesty has arrivedβ"
The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment, and immediately looked at the Empress Dowager, she frowned: "Did you send someone to call Your Majesty here?" β
"Where is the Empress Dowager, this palace has always been by your side, where is the time to arrange for someone to shout or not?"
"You!"
Before the words of blame could be spoken, Jiang Qiancheng had already strode in front of them, and he said with a cold face: "What is the imperial grandmother doing in the Qiankun Palace with people?" β
"The mourning family is naturally doing important things, if Your Majesty is fine, it is better to leave the mourning family's affairs alone."
"Has the imperial grandmother forgotten that this is the imperial palace, and I am the emperor, even if you are the empress dowager, do you need to give three points of courtesy in front of me?"
ββ¦β¦β
The Empress Dowager pursed her lips and looked at the subordinates who were searching around the Qiankun Palace but did not get any results, looking a little weak.
The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Since the Empress Dowager didn't find what she wanted here in this palace, it's better to go back first, and think about what is going on after you go back." β
"Mourning home, this is ......"
"Imperial grandmother, please go back," Jiang Qiancheng interrupted her: "The imperial grandmother is not telling others what the Empress Dowager has done with this great fanfare in the Qiankun Palace?" β
"That's not what the mourning family meant!"
"Since this is not the intention, the imperial grandmother will go back first, and the matter of Princess Qingjia will be investigated clearly, so there is no need for the imperial grandmother to worry about it here."
"You!"
"Imperial Grandmother, please come back."
ββ¦β¦β
Although there was a lot of reluctance in her heart, the Empress Dowager was forced to leave the Qiankun Palace temporarily with people due to the majesty of Jiang Qiancheng, and she still looked unwilling when she left.
Looking at her back as she left in a hurry, the Queen Mother couldn't help but smile: "It seems that from today onwards, this Qiankun Palace will be the focus of the Queen Mother's surveillance." Your Majesty, what are you going to do? β
She was referring to something about Princess Qingjia.
Jiang Qiancheng thought for a while and said, "Since the Empress Dowager will definitely send someone to watch you here, then let Princess Qingjia continue to stay with you, everything is fine as usual, with your ability, it is still possible to hide a person from being discovered, right?" β
"That's nature."
"Then it's hard for the Queen Mother."
"It doesn't have to be so polite. Of course, if you have to be polite, just quickly settle the Empress Dowager's side, although the palace doesn't mind the Qiankun Palace being searched, but it doesn't want to be on guard against her all the time. β
"I know, I will deal with this matter as soon as possible, and until then, I will trouble you."
"Hmm."
On the other side, the Empress Dowager returned to Cining Palace, her face full of anger, in the situation just now, Jiang Qiancheng was obviously standing with the Empress Dowager, he arrived so in time, there must be some ulterior secrets hidden in the Qiankun Palace!
Mama stepped forward and carefully patted her on the back to ease her: "Don't be angry, the Queen Mother has room for this matter." β
"Is there room for anything? Where is it? β
"That Qiankun Palace is obviously weird, we just need to send someone to keep an eye on it, sooner or later, their side will show their feet, and when the time comes, they can reap the benefits of the fisherman!"
