Perhaps there is someone right now, watching her every move in the dark, ready to probe her secrets, and let the crown prince and the entire royal family fall into an endless abyss.

This conjecture came to mind, and Concubine Qin's face immediately stiffened, and the hairs on her body stood up, looking at the empty corner of the hall, her eyes were full of fear.

But soon Concubine Qin realized that she was thinking too much.

Xingqing Palace, in addition to the imperial study, is the closest palace to His Majesty, and all the secrets come from here.

Even if there is really a spy in her palace, that spy will only be an inconsequential palace person in the prosperous palace.

Maybe it's the sprinkling and sweeping palace people in the courtyard, or maybe it's the palace servants who prune flowers.

After all, they will never have a chance to enter their own dormitory when there is no need.

Thinking of this, Concubine Qin, who had been worried, finally relieved her heart slightly, she pressed her heart beating like a thunderous drum on her chest with one hand, her face was slightly pale, one hand was propped up on the table, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell from her forehead.

When the palace maid with hot tea came in and saw this scene, she was immediately frightened, hurriedly took a few steps over, and asked worriedly: "Where is Niangniang uncomfortable, do you want to invite the imperial doctor to take a look?" ”

"Not necessarily." Concubine Qin waved her hand tiredly, and her worry all day made her look weak even when she spoke: "It's just that I didn't have a good rest last night, just let the palace take a break." ”

"Yes." The palace maid's voice still implied worry, but after hearing this, she took two steps back, held the teacup and said: "In this case, this tea cannot be drunk without interruption, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to sleep after drinking it." ”

Concubine Qin's body is not very good, although she has been pampered in Xingqing Palace all these years, and very few people come to disturb her.

But she has secrets in her heart that she can't tell to others, and she is overly worried.

Coupled with last night's excitement, it doesn't look good right now.

She pressed the corner of her aching forehead, twisted a pair of eyebrows, and finally said, "Let's go, there is no need for tea in the palace tonight." ”

"Yes." The palace man received the order, and before leaving, he said: "The slave will go to the small kitchen to bring a bowl of milk soup, and the mother will use it to rest well, and she can calm down." ”

With that, the palace maid turned and left.

Half an hour later, Concubine Qin lay on the bed, her eyes staring blankly at the top of the bed, and her faint breathing seemed to be nothing.

When the palace people lowered the bed curtain and were about to leave, Concubine Qin suddenly opened her mouth: "You will sleep on the chaise longue in the inner hall tonight, don't go back to the outer room to sleep." ”

Although I don't know why Concubine Qin had such an order, the palace people still nodded honestly.

Until the next morning.

When the palace people woke up, they saw that Concubine Qin had already sat in front of the dresser, and it seemed that she didn't know how long she had been awake, so she was so frightened that she didn't dare to come out, her brain was confused, and she subconsciously turned over and knelt on the cold floor, sweating profusely, and pleaded:

"Mother, it's the slave's fault."

"I don't blame you." Concubine Qin saw the panicked appearance of the palace maid behind her from the bronze mirror, not only did she not blame, but also smiled lightly to comfort her: "It's the palace that woke up earlier today, and you go to fetch water to let the palace wash." ”

Seeing that Concubine Qin did not blame her, the palace people quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "Yes, the slave will go, Niangniang will wait a minute." ”

If you say it's a wait, it's really a wait.

Perhaps in order to save for the mistake of getting up late, the palace people moved faster than ever.

After breakfast, Concubine Qin, who was too quiet, lowered her eyes and said, "You go to the East Palace and invite the grandmother who serves His Royal Highness the Prince's daily life, and say that there is something to ask her in the palace." ”

Mama Sun.

One of the most special palace people in the palace.

Because she was the queen mother's close maid, and she had a relationship of care and service with Emperor Jin An, no one in the palace dared to offend easily.

Moreover, Mama Sun rarely leaves the East Palace, even if someone wants to deliberately find trouble, they may not be able to find her person.

If you want to say that this old lady has anything in common with Concubine Qin, it is probably that they rarely appear in front of people.

Therefore, when they heard that the two people in the harem who were the most low-key and non-existent were going to meet, the palace people were stunned.

However, soon the palace people reacted, and hurriedly responded: "Slave will go." ”

An hour later, Grandma Sun was invited.

Concubine Qin retreated from the palace people who were waiting around, but only the grandmother was left.

Faced with the sad news of the disappearance of the prince of the East Palace, the two insiders were equally worried.

However, at this moment, no one spoke first.

……

Extend the boundaries of the river.

Zhao Yueqiu, who was going to follow Zhao Yueqiu, who came to investigate the case together, walked over the wreckage of the cruise ship in embarrassment, pointed to one of the marks and said, "Dad, look at the shape of this thing, does it look like a weapon?" ”

She couldn't think of it.

No matter how smart she is, when facing the unknown, she is still confused and unable to distinguish between the unknown and her lack of knowledge.

Zhao Li, who was discussing affairs with others, heard this, and immediately walked around the wet wooden board in front of him to the piece in front of Zhao Yueqiu, carefully identified the traces on it, and frowned for a long time without saying a word.

I don't know how long it has been, Zhao Li's brows slowly loosened, and there was a sense of relief in his eyes: "It seems that after wasting a whole month, I finally found some signs." ”

"What does Daddy mean by that?" Zhao Yueqiu asked for some reason.

It's just a hard mark.

She just thought it was strange, and she didn't know where the mark came from.

Hearing this, Zhao Li explained: "The trace you said is indeed the trace of a weapon, and this is not an ordinary weapon, in Dajin, almost no one will use this kind of weapon." ”

After such a reminder, what was originally hidden behind the fog finally slowly revealed.

"Dad is talking about ......" Zhao Yueqiu paused and said, "Liangguo scimitar?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Li squinted, his tone gradually became dangerous, he stretched out his finger and wiped the marks on the wooden board, pursed his lips and said, "It seems that there were still a lot of dangerous things hidden on the royal cruise ship at that time. ”

Otherwise, how could there be such a thing as a Ryokoku scimitar?

As we all know, the scimitar of the Liangguo is a weapon of faith for the people of the two countries.

And for the people of the Jin Kingdom, they are too late to disgust this scimitar, so how can they carry it with them?

Yes, in the end, there can only be one explanation.

Without everyone's knowledge, the thieves of Ryokuni took advantage of the situation to board the ship and secretly damaged the hull, which led to the disaster of the shipwreck.

When I think of this, everything suddenly clears the clouds.

Zhao Li withdrew his hand and stood straight in the distance.

"It seems that we should also go back to the capital."

Hearing this, Zhao Yueqiu suddenly felt a resentment in her heart, and looked up at Zhao Li deeply: "It seems that this Liang Kingdom really hates His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Otherwise, how could he take such a big risk to sneak into the Jin Kingdom and secretly do so many tricks and feet?

God knows how long they have been hiding in the dark, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was really calculated by them.

It can only be said that the thieves' preparations are too sufficient, and His Highness's defense is much more lax than before.

Zhao Li glanced at her, took in the anger in her eyes, and said: "You don't need to bother about this matter, you just need to do what you have to do, and the rest will be solved by the father, not to mention, the father believes that for this matter, Your Majesty will definitely have a decision, and there is no need for you to be here for His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"That being said, my daughter is still very aggrieved." Zhao Yueqiu took a deep breath: "It's just that the two countries are fighting each other on the battlefield, they even sent countless traitors to assassinate His Royal Highness the Prince, and my daughter can't swallow this breath no matter what." ”

Zhao Li looked at his daughter who had grown up in front of him and was able to take charge on his own, and suddenly asked, "You can't swallow this breath, so what do you want to do?" ”

"I want to ......" Zhao Yueqiu said in a deep voice: "If I can, I must find a way to make Liangguo's finances have problems!" ”

Now she has the true biography of the old man Qian and knows how to hold a person in money.

If she really gets the opportunity, she will not be relentless.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yueqiu's originally depressed mood suddenly dispersed.

Where there is life, there is hope.

It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

She still has a lot of time to play slowly with Ryokuni.

Seeing this, Zhao Li suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart.

The daughter has long been different from different boudoir girls, and now in Shangjing, who mentioned that Zhao Yueqiu would not add a little more admiration?

It's just because she stubbornly broke a way out of the pile of men, so that people no longer dare to underestimate the women in the world.

In the end, Zhao Li said: "You can't act rashly for the time being, for now, you are only waiting for Your Majesty's decision, as for what you want to do in the future, my father will never stop you." ”

"My daughter understands." Zhao Yueqiu said firmly: "Before the royal family makes a statement, my daughter will never use the stability of the people as a bet." ”

Zhao Li nodded slowly: "It's good that you understand." ”

The cause of the wreck was found, and the culprit of the wreck was also found.

But now they can't catch any of them.

The people of the Liang Kingdom had either fled long ago, or they were among the piles of corpses that had been fished out.

I really want to find someone to convict, but I don't know who to convict.

However, none of this is what Zhao Li should worry about.

He only compiled the things he found into a book, and then returned to Shangjing and respectfully handed it to Emperor Jin An, and then said: "Those people have done too cleanly, and the ministers really can't find anything else, except for being sure that the shipwreck is inseparable from the people of Liangguo, they can't find anything else." ”

The damned are all dead, and the undeserving ones may have escaped.

Right now, his eyes are really black, and he doesn't know anything.

Hearing this answer, Emperor Jin An was not surprised.

Obviously, he had expected it in his heart before this.

Merely......

Liangguo's move is tantamount to pouring another basin of cold water on the tense diplomatic relations between the two countries.

This is, the rhythm of tearing the skin.
