The Holy Emperor was going to dig three feet into the ground in the Qinzheng Palace, and it spread like the wind.

The people below were so curious why the Holy Emperor had suddenly made such a decision.

After hesitating, many courtiers were ready to enter the palace to see what was going on.

Gonggong Zhou went to the Ministry of Industry to find someone, and the vacant floor tiles of the Qinzheng Hall were quickly lifted.

There are five pieces in total, respectively in the four corners of the Qinzheng Palace, and one is under the dragon case.

"Your Majesty, this one was found from under the open floor tiles."

Gonggong Zhou offered a thing, but the Holy Emperor frowned, but did not take it.

He glanced at Yun Rong, and asked Yun Rong to take it.

It looked like an oily paper bag, and you could smell the faint smell of oil when you held it in your hand.

But the oil-paper bag looks like it has been going on for some years, and many places have rotten.

Yun Rong carefully opened the oiled paper bag, then took out some of it, put it under her nose and smelled it.

The Holy Emperor watched her movements and hurriedly asked, "Girl, what is this?" ”

Yun Rong handed the oil paper bag back to Gonggong Zhou, and then said, "Your Majesty, please leave and right." ”

The Holy Emperor waved his hand, and all the palace maids in the hall retreated.

Only then did Yun Rong speak: "Your Majesty, here is musk. ”

The Holy Emperor's face changed, and the momentum around him condensed into ice: "Girl, you tell me carefully." ”

Yun Rong pursed her lips and asked again: "Father-in-law, where was this oil paper bag found?" ”

Gonggong Zhou pointed to the table.

The open floor tiles under the table are filled with musk.

The Holy Emperor sat in that position for half of the day.

Yun Rong came to her senses, and then continued: "Your Majesty, the musk has been smelling for a long time to have contraceptive effects, but the storage time is not long, although the oil paper bag just now looks like it has been some years, but the minister has seen it, and the musk inside should be stored for no more than a year." ”

Contraception!

Although he is a man, in the same way, it can prevent pregnancy and have the effect of killing sperm.

No wonder after so many years, he has always had no heirs.

The musk is no more than a year, but the oiled paper bag with the musk is an old thing.

Thinking about it, these people have already moved to prevent him from having a future.

It's a pity that all these years, he still thinks it is providence.

But I didn't expect it to be man-made.

The Holy Emperor's train of thought changed quickly, his face was gloomy, and the hall was a precursor to the coming storm: "Zhou Cai." ”

"The minions are here." Father-in-law Zhou responded.

The Holy Emperor gritted his teeth and said, "Go and check, and find out to me how this thing came about." ”

Father-in-law Zhou didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly retreated.

Not long after, Pei Yan and the people of the six departments all gathered in the Qinzheng Palace.

The Holy Emperor didn't even sit on the dragon chair anymore, and kept pacing back and forth in the hall.

He was like this, and the courtiers below didn't dare to speak.

You all look at me, I look at you, and finally shook their heads at each other.

The more the Holy Emperor walked, the more annoyed he became, he stopped, turned his head to look at the courtiers and said, "On weekdays, you can say it one by one more than anyone else, but you will say it." ”

The courtiers hurriedly knelt down and hurriedly confessed: "Weichen doesn't dare. ”

The Holy Emperor slapped his palm on the table, and the courtiers under him trembled: "Don't dare? Don't you dare to tell me now? ”

The courtiers lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to gasp.

The Holy Emperor snorted coldly, but the anger in his heart could not be calmed down.

He turned his head to look at Yun Rong and said, "Girl, you come on." ”

Yun Rong was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward and said: "Musk has the effect of killing sperm, and Your Majesty has not had an heir for many years, which is the reason." ”

As soon as these words came out, the courtiers were stunned.

To put it bluntly, it is the same crime as treason.

If he is caught, he is afraid that he will have to punish the nine clans.

"Your Majesty, could this be a coincidence?" After all, this diligent palace was built by the previous dynasty.

The thing was sitting under the tiles again.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was swept back by the Holy Emperor's eye knife.

Yun Rong continued: "The musk thing can be stored for three years at most, and under the floor tiles, the minister has just seen it, and it should be newly put in, less than a year." ”

As soon as he said this, the man who had just spoken was speechless.

The Holy Emperor looked at the Ministry of Industry Shangshu coldly and asked, "Who did the renovation of the Qinzheng Hall a year ago?" ”

Gongbu Shangshu is a thin and tall middle-aged man named Pang Shen.

Hearing the Holy Emperor's words, Pang Shen hurriedly stood up and confessed: "Your Majesty, the renovation has been going on for a long time, and the minister needs to go back to check before he can know." ”

The Holy Emperor pursed his lips and didn't speak, but his eyes seemed to pierce Pang Shangshu.

Pang Shen broke out in a cold sweat on his head, but he didn't dare to refute it.

After all, this is about the future of Da Zhou.

The Holy Emperor was slow to speak.

At this time, Pei Yan stood up: "Father, it will take some time for a huge person to investigate this matter, Father, let's be in a hurry for a while, and wait for the huge person to find out the results." ”

The Holy Emperor looked at this man who had been his son for twelve years.

The condensed face did not get any better.

But what Pei Yan said didn't make sense.

If he wanted to know the truth, he had to let them find out first.

It's just that......

He didn't say the rest of the words, waved his hand and said, "Let's go down, Pang Shen, I will have a result tomorrow." ”

Pang Shen breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "The minister must do his best." ”

After saying that, he retreated.

Out of the door of the Qinzheng Palace, the courtiers finally had a feeling of coming to life.

Pei Yan returned to the prince's mansion with a cold face, and the princess greeted him and offered a cup of tea: "Husband, what's wrong?" ”

Pei Yan took a sip of tea, but some things were not good to say to the crown princess.

At that time, it was the will of the Holy Emperor that he married the crown princess.

Over the years, he and the crown princess have also respected each other, and there is not much emotion other than that.

At this time, I opened my mouth when I heard her ask like this, but I didn't know where to start.

The crown princess looked at him, her heart was slightly astringent, but she still smiled and said: "If the husband doesn't want to say it, don't say it, and the concubine won't ask." ”

Hearing this, Pei Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, there is some emptiness in my heart.

He remembered that when Yu Jin was there, whenever he had something on his mind, she could always get to the bottom of it and give him a solution.

At this time, the princess's innocence made him feel bored for no reason: "Okay, you go down." ”

The crown princess rubbed his forehead for him, pursed her lips, but still said goodbye.

However, before he could reach the door, he was pulled back.

The crown princess's center of gravity was unstable, so she fell behind her, Pei Yan pulled her into her arms, stretched out her hand to probe her softness, but there was no tenderness and sweetness in her eyes: "This palace won't let you ask, so you won't ask?" ”

The crown princess was stunned for a moment, her face was slightly red.

She has been married to Pei Yan for many years, but Pei Yan has touched her only a handful of times, and every time it is like completing a task.

After giving birth to a daughter, it was even worse, and she would only enter her room once in two or three months.

And Pei Yan's own appearance is excellent, at this time, how can the crown princess not be distracted: "Your Highness, the door is not closed yet." ”

Pei Yan glanced up, then his eyes fell on her face, and he bent down and hugged her horizontally.

The crown princess curled up in his arms with a red face, obviously looking forward to what would happen next.

After a while, Pei Yan walked out of the room refreshed and ordered someone to summon his staff to come over to discuss the matter.

The crown princess sat up from the couch, and the red mark on her neck confirmed what had just happened.

But she wasn't happy at all.

"Ah Jin."

She silently recited this name, but she didn't know who this Ah Jin was, so that Pei Yan could still remember it at that time.

"Someone."

A maid pushed the door in: "Princess." ”

"Go and call Mama Yue over."

The maid replied and spun out again.

Not long after, the Crown Princess's mouth of Mama Yue arrived: "I have seen Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." ”

The crown princess put on a dress, walked down from the couch, looked at Mama Yue and asked, "I remember that Mama is the nurse of His Royal Highness, right?" ”

Mama Yue bowed down and responded: "Back to the crown princess, yes." ”

The crown princess asked again: "Has the grandmother always been by His Royal Highness's side?" ”

She was referring to the time when she was in the Rui Palace.

Mama Yue didn't know why she suddenly asked about this, but she still replied truthfully: "Yes." ”

The crown princess glanced at Mama Yue and said casually: "Does that Mama know who Ah Jin is?" ”

Mama Yue was stunned for a moment and didn't speak for a long time.

Of course she knew who Ah Jin was.

But this name is a taboo in front of Pei Yan.

Seeing that Mama Yue didn't speak, the crown princess couldn't help but call: "Mama? ”

Mama Yue came back to her senses, bowed down and said, "I don't know where the crown princess knew this name?" ”

Although the crown princess didn't know Pei Yan's heart, she was not stupid, and she had already guessed Mama Yue's distraction just now.

"Of course, I learned from His Highness." And said: "Mama, she is the sweetheart of His Highness, right?" ”

Mama Yue was stunned for a moment and said, "For some words, the crown princess still went to ask His Highness in person." ”

The crown princess glanced at her, and understood the meaning of her words.

But if she could ask Pei Yan in person, what would she say in front of her.

But no matter what Mama Yue says, she is Pei Yan's nurse.

There are some things that she knows in her heart.

Thinking like this, she said again: "Mama, can you tell me about His Highness's past?" ”

Mama Yue frowned slightly, knowing the meaning of the princess's words, she thought for a while and said: "Why should the princess bother with a person who has died, if she has this thought, why don't you think about how to give birth to a concubine for His Royal Highness as soon as possible." ”

The crown princess was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you for reminding you." ”

After speaking, he asked Mama Yue to be sent out.

Someone who has died?

I see.

The Crown Princess's joy came to an abrupt end when she thought that 'she couldn't even fight for a person who had died'.

After thinking about it, he called someone in: "Go and check what women were close to Your Highness before he became the crown prince, especially those with the word "Jin" in their names." ”

After Pei Yan became the prince, she knew that if there was really a woman, it could only be before he became the prince.

The people below answered, and then went out.

What happened to the crown princess here, Pei Yan didn't know.

But if the Holy Emperor can have an heir, I'm afraid that he, the crown prince, will not be far from death.
