039 No Proof?
After the queen mother left, the emperor's face also dissipated from the false smile just now.
The emperor's face turned cold, and his gaze was not retracted until the figure of the queen mother disappeared completely.
He let out a long sigh and looked at He Xuan and Zuo Liang, who were still kneeling on the ground. First helped Concubine Zuo to the seat and sat down, and sat down herself.
"Hurry up. This left kneeling and kneeling, the weather is still cold, be careful of knee pain. Zuo Guifei said.
Hearing this, Zuo Liang and He Xuan stood up from the ground.
"Ziqing, what's wrong with you today? With the emperor here, why are you still so frivolous. I know that you are for him," as she spoke, Zuo Guifei looked at He Xuan who was standing on the side, and then looked at Zuo Liang and said, "You don't want to think about it, will the emperor make it difficult for the Queen Mother!" ”
"Yes. The minister was in a hurry for a while, and he was too worried about He Xuan, so Meng Lang ......" Zuo Liang lowered his head and said.
"Put this aside in advance, Zuo Liang, and He Xuan, both of you come and sit down." Han Mingyue said.
Zuo Liang and He Xuan thanked each other, and then found a seat to sit down, He Xuan peeked at Zuo Liang, she also knew the weight of the words just now. If the Queen Mother insisted on pursuing it just now, Zuo Liang would have suffered some flesh and skin at the least. However, looking at his appearance, he was very calm, as if he should do this, is this what Liao Yong said to himself...... Is Zuo Liangshi concerned?
What is this...... He Xuan's heart couldn't help but feel a little moved, but she was quickly stopped by herself. What is your purpose, you should still remember, you must not be stumped by the care of this little favor!
"Thank you, General Zuo." Although I thought like that in my head, I unconsciously said words of thanks.
"Oh...... No thanks. ”
This is the first time He Xuan has spoken to himself so gently, Zuo Liang only felt a shock in his heart, and his face turned red, all the way to his neck, and his ears were red.
"Let's not mention those things just now, how do people recognize them?" Han Mingyue asked.
"Oh, go back to the emperor," said Zuo Liang stood up and said, "He Xuan recognized it just now...... The little eunuch who went out in Niangniang's palace that day, he had indeed seen ......"
Hearing this, I saw that Concubine Zuo's face suddenly turned pale.
"Your Majesty ......" When she said this, Concubine Zuo's voice was already trembling, with some crying.
Of course, this can't blame her, a pregnant woman has a lot of mood swings, and it is difficult to control, plus the incident just said is really not an ordinary thing that can be understated.
"Don't worry, concubine, listen to what they say." Han Mingyue said.
"But this person is not the person He Xuan has been tracking back to Beijing in Xishan that day."
Hearing this, this Zuo Niangniang took a long breath and said, "You kid, say the important thing first, you are scared to death of the mourning family." ”
"Minister......" Zuo Liang really wanted to slap himself, what happened to his brain today. I can't even tell the priorities. Knowing that Niangniang can't stand the stimulation now, she still speaks indiscriminately.
". As the grass people just said, you must pay attention to taking care of your body now, so being too shocked and too angry will do more harm to the fetus in the womb. ”
"yes. ...... concubine"
At this moment, the little eunuch sent to get the records of the respectful room hurriedly ran back, and then handed over the records to the hands of Zuo Guifei and the emperor, and after checking it, sure enough, this little life was nearly four months old.
"The concubine is really old, she doesn't even know ......" said Zuo Guifei's face turned red and laughed.
At this time, suddenly another little eunuch ran into the courtyard like a fly, and then stood at the door, and called in a low voice: "Father-in-law Zhao, father-in-law Zhao......"
When Zhao Ji'an heard that he was calling himself, he waved his hand, first made the little eunuch stop, and then confessed to the emperor's mother and walked out of the house.
"What for, what for? I didn't see the emperor talking to the concubine, shouting, you are dead! ”
"Dead ...... Die...... Dead, really dead! ”
"Phew, you're dead! What are you talking about frustration! Niangniang is happy, and you are not afraid of collision, and then talk nonsense, and carefully uncover your skin. ”
At this time, the little eunuch was able to catch his breath, and then said to Zhao Ji'an: "Father-in-law Zhao, that little Xu Zi in our palace is dead." ”
Although they didn't speak loudly outside, Zuo Liang and He Xuan still listened to it really.
"What?" Zuo Liang suddenly stood up to his side, walked outside the hall and asked, "What did you just say?" Who died! ”
"Little Xuzi." The little eunuch saw Zuo Liang's murderous face, and his frightened voice was as small as a mosquito humming.
"Is it the little eunuch who ran out when I came in just now?" Zuo Liang lowered his voice and asked.
The little eunuch nodded desperately.
At this time, there was a noisy sound outside the palace gate, and a eunuch with a similar dress to Zhao Ji'an hurriedly walked in.
"Yo, Gonggong Deng, this queen mother has just left, why did you come here." Zhao Ji'an said.
"I'm here to send a message to Gonggong Zhao, a little eunuch in the palace of the noble concubine Niangniang was just fished up from the lake near the cold palace. I thought it was a stumble and fell into the water. But then, someone with good deeds found a letter from his arms. It just so happened that I was helping the Queen Mother run errands from there, so I was curious to open it and take a look. ”
"Yes. I don't know what was written in the letter! ”
"Oh, your father-in-law Zhao asked, the miscellaneous family should have told each other bluntly, but it didn't matter if I read this letter, and after reading it, I realized that it was better to know less about something."
"What are you talking about out there? Something to say come in. At this moment, the emperor's voice came from the room.
This Gonggong Deng smiled at Zhao Ji'an and Zuo Liang, and then walked in with an anxious expression.
As soon as he entered the hall, Gonggong Deng knelt down with a "plop".
"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the mother."
"What were you talking about out there?" The emperor asked.
At this time, Zuo Liang and Zhao Ji'an also walked in, Zhao Ji'an glanced at Fu Hai, Fu Hai understood, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the concubine needs to rest, let's go back to the imperial study and talk about these state affairs." ”
"No, no, no, it's not a state affair, it's a family affair."
"Even if it's a family matter, I don't want to distract Concubine Ai right now. Set up the royal study for a while. ”
"Yes." Dundee replied writhly.
"Since it's a family matter, the grass people will retire." He Xuan stood up and said.
The emperor nodded and said, "The list will be released in a few days." Last time you said in the imperial study, you were arrogant, and I wanted to see if you, a handsome scholar, could go to high school. ”
The emperor laughed. The grass people have seen the face of the sky several times, which is already a blessing for the grass people. As for high school or not, the grass people don't really mind. He Xuan smiled and said, "I'm lucky, no, it's not my life, it's just that I don't have enough literary knowledge." ”
"Good. It's hard for you to have such a mind at a young age, if everyone can be like you so happy and self-conscious, it would be good. Okay, you and Zuo Liang can retreat. ”
"But this fan ......"
"Take it. Although it is a piece of the remnant seal, it is just an ordinary stone. It's because outsiders think too much about it, so they use false myths to spread this thing, but you don't have to take it seriously. ”
He Xuan replied yes with a smile, and retreated back with Zuo Liang.
He Xuan kept her head down, and was about to retreat to the door, the moment she turned around, her eyes came into contact with Gonggong Deng who was kneeling on the ground, although it was only for a moment, but He Xuan was absolutely sure that she was not mistaken.
As soon as he arrived outside the palace, Zuo Liang thought about sending He Xuan to the palace gate first, and then he would be on duty in the afternoon, but before he turned around, he felt that someone behind him was pulling his clothes. Zuo Liang looked back and saw that it was He Xuan. I saw He Xuan frowning and looking at herself with a serious face.
"What's wrong?" Zuo Liang asked in a low voice.
He Xuan blocked it with her body, pointed at the father-in-law inside with a fan, and then raised the index finger of her right hand.
"You mean, he's the first ......" Zuo Liang said in surprise, although his voice was very low, he couldn't hide a trace of fear at this time.
He Xuan didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and nodded.
Zuo Liang pulled He Xuan away from the door, and then asked in a low voice, "Are you sure?" ”
He Xuan nodded again and said, "When I arrived at the palace gate, I saw it very clearly, of course, if you doubt my memory, then I have nothing to say." ”
"That's not what it meant." Zuo Liang was afraid that He Xuan would misunderstand, so he explained in a low voice, "If it were him, this matter would be troublesome." ”
"Can't you tell the emperor directly?"
"He is the deacon and chief eunuch in the palace of the Queen Mother, and whenever this matter involves the Queen Mother, the emperor will have to think twice. Moreover, as you heard just now, that little eunuch had 'stumbled and fallen into the water' next to the cold palace that would not easily be passed. Listening to the meaning, it seems that he still 'left' a letter on his body. Since it was sent to this palace, whether the emperor believes it or not, it is also to insinuate the mother. ”
He Xuan listened to Zuo Liang's words and nodded, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, this side has just revealed that he wants to recognize people, and that side has fallen into the water, and it is still a place where it is easy to see people. If you think about it, you know that there must be a problem.
"Now there is no proof of death, even if you are pushed out, your appearance in the Niangniang Palace today is the truth, and you are also selfish."
"Don't worry, there's always a way." Saying that, He Xuan looked at Zuo Liang and smiled.
Although he was bent on dealing with Zuo Junzhong, the father-in-law who had just appeared in front of him also made He Xuan feel unhappy, because he vaguely remembered that it was the palace people under the Queen Mother who went to pass the decree outside the Saiwai. If Zuo Junzhong is the culprit who indirectly killed his father, then this Gonggong Deng is the ghost who led his father to this road of no return...... How could he personally let him go, of course, the queen mother who was still standing behind him
