Yun Zhen is not the only one who has lost his strength, if Zuo Junzhong, who barely walked outside the palace gate, does not have Zuo Liang's support, he is afraid that he will not even be able to stand steadily.

"Father, what's wrong with you? How about worry-free? I just saw her enter the palace, why didn't I see her come out? ”

Zuo Junzhong shook his head and said in a low voice, "Let's go home and talk about it." ”

Although Zuo Liang was anxious, he had no choice but to nod when he looked at his father's pale face, he roughly understood that this was not something that could be said clearly in one or two sentences, and it was not something that could be said outside.

Back home, Zuo Liang helped his father into the bedroom, Zuo Junzhong sent his subordinates out, and when only their father and son were left, Zuo Junzhong sighed.

"Ziqing, I'm afraid that this time, I won't be able to get out."

"Huh?" Zuo Liang lost his voice in surprise, "Why?" What did she say that shouldn't have been said? ”

"She didn't just say something she shouldn't have said. In order to disassociate us from this, she even said that she was using us to prepare to assassinate the king. ”

Zuo Liang always felt that He Xuan was an extremely calm person, but he never thought that she would say such a thing, and at the moment he felt that his mind was blank, and he sat down next to him.

"How so? In this way, let alone us, even the emperor can't save her! ”

"She just doesn't want us or the emperor to save her again, she wants to give up her life to protect us."

"What to do...... What should we do......"

"What, we can't do it either! We can only watch, just like we did when we looked at all souls, and look at it again......"

In the scorching hot weather, Zuo Liang only felt that the house was full of cold, forcing himself to have nowhere to hide, and he finally understood what kind of mood his father wrote down the fold back then, and what kind of mood he had to face the death of his old friend.

Powerless.

From my birth to the present, I only understood the meaning of these four words at this moment.

"Do you want to tell Jin Fan about this?"

Zuo Junzhong shook his head, "No." Can't tell him. Although this child is calm, no matter who is afraid of the current matter, he will not be able to calm down. told him that he could only take one more life, and it didn't help, but he lived up to his worry-free intentions. ”

"We're just going to watch?"

"For now, that's all it can be. However, the stakes are high. Come to think of it, it won't be revealed to the outside world. Let's see, maybe there will be any more opportunities for Worry-Free to escape from Ascension. But right now, we can't do anything, remember, nothing. ”

"What about the emperor?"

Zuo Junzhong listened to his son's question, smiled bitterly, and said, "We don't have to say it, I'm afraid that someone will report it a long time ago." Such a good opportunity, will the virtuous prince miss it? ”

And so it was.

But the one who tells the news is not the one who does not allow it.

Someone had already informed the Queen Mother about the things in the court, and hearing such a news that was undoubtedly thundering on the ground, the Queen Mother's emotions were absolutely shocked. I really hope that there is such a big scandal in the dynasty, I am afraid that even if the emperor does not die, he will not be able to face the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty again.

While she sent people to continue to inquire about the news, she quietly sent the palace people to Yancui Pavilion, and unintentionally revealed the news of this matter to the palace people inside.

After serving the emperor with medicine, Concubine Zuo left the dormitory and came to the Buddhist hall to prepare for chanting, when she suddenly heard the palace maid outside the door muttering something in a low voice. At first, she didn't care, but then she suddenly heard the word "He Xuan", so she listened carefully.

"I heard from the people who served in front of me that someone has joined Lord He today."

"It's the one who asked for the mother's pulse? Hasn't he been demoted to the sixth grade? How can there still be ginseng? There are really a lot of people who have fallen into the well these years. ”

"It's not a downfall, this time it's much more serious than the last time to escort it!"

"What's the matter?"

"I heard...... Lord He is a woman! ”

When Zuo Niang heard this, she was shocked, and the chanting Buddha in her hand "snapped" and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the personal maid who was guarding her hurriedly opened the door of the temple and shouted in a low voice: "It's getting more and more unruly, Niangniang is chanting, you don't say that you are doing your duty well, what are you muttering here......"

"Takechi, you let them in."

"Yes."

Zhu Zhi responded, and gave the two little palace maids a look, and the two little palace maids walked in in a frightened manner, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Concubine Zuo.

"Niangniang spares her life, the slave and maid don't dare anymore."

"The slave knows that she is wrong, please ...... the mother"

"Don't worry. Tell Hongu what you just said. ”

The two little palace maids looked at each other, but neither dared to speak.

"Look at what. Mother asks you what to say? Speak quickly. ”

"Yes," one of the little palace maids opened her mouth tremblingly, "My sister is on an errand in the Empress Dowager's palace, and just now, she came to look for me to get a trick, and she told me that I heard that someone from the court today has taken Lord He down." If others are okay, then Lord He is also meritorious to Niangniang, so the slave asked a few more words. My sister said that just now, the Criminal Department had sent someone to invite Master He to the courtroom. ”

"What are they going to do?"

"They...... They ......"

"Say it quickly, don't spit it out!" Takechi reprimanded.

"They say that Master He is a woman, and I heard what my sister meant, but I am afraid that it will be more than lucky."

"And then?" Concubine Zuo asked.

The little palace maid cried and said, "The rest of the slaves and maids don't know." My sister knows that. Mother, the slave really knows that she is wrong......"

"Don't cry. Get out of here. The two of you slapped each other ten times, and you don't give an example. ”

"Thank you, thank you."

The two little palace maids kowtowed a few times in gratitude, and then withdrew.

Looking at Concubine Zuo's worried look, Zhu Zhi comforted: "Niangniang, don't think too much......

"You go, call Zhao Ji'an to the palace."

"Yes." Zhu Zhi responded and came outside, "Father-in-law Zhao, Niangniang, please come in." ”

Zhao Ji'an was guarding outside the dormitory at this time, and he didn't know why Concubine Zuo suddenly summoned him, so he hurriedly trotted to the Buddhist hall.

Concubine Zuo briefly recounted what she had just heard, and then ordered: "You go in person and inquire about this palace." Got it? ”

"Yes."

Zhao Ji'an received the will and hurriedly went forward. When he returned, Takechi told him that his mother had returned to the dormitory. Yue Ji'an entered the hall, closed the door, and saw that the emperor was already sitting on the bed, and Niangniang was pacing left and right on the ground. Fuhai is also waiting for him with his neck stretched at this time.

"Can you find it?" Tomami asked.

"Yes, I did. However, this is not a good situation. ”

"How?" Concubine Zuo asked.

"Has Worry-Free been tortured?" The emperor asked.

"Not really. He didn't move anything, and Lord He recruited himself. Zhao Ji'an sighed and said with a frown.

"Recruited?" Zuo Niangniang asked.

"Yes. not only recruited, but also said some reasons why she entered the officialdom as a daughter. ”

"What is the reason?" The emperor asked.

"Avenge ...... Father"

"Who to get revenge on?" Tomami asked.

She said......" Zhao Ji'an said, hesitating.

"Say it quickly." Zuo Niangniang urged.

Zhao Ji'an sighed, and then said, "She said that there are three enemies. One is the father-in-law of Dundee in the original Queen Mother's palace. Two, one, two, one is left, third, and third is long live you......"

She ...... Isn't she talking nonsense! Fuhai said in a lost voice.

"She's excusing me and Zuo Qing's family and taking this matter on herself." The emperor closed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice.

Everyone in the room understood this truth, and they all fell silent.

After a while, Concubine Zuo asked in a low voice, "That's ...... What should we do now? Otherwise, the concubine ......"

"Mother, don't be silent about this matter. The slave also heard that although Zuo Xiangye had no direct responsibility, because he was the chief examiner of Enke, he had to bear some joint responsibility, and he had been ordered by the prince not to leave the mansion without permission. ”

"You guys go out first, Fuhai stays, let me be quiet."

Looking at the emperor's sad face, Concubine Zuo got up and left the dormitory with the support of Zhao Ji'an.

"Your Majesty, there is no room for maneuver in this matter, right?" Tomumi served the tea and asked in a low voice.

"I'm afraid it's gone." The emperor replied, "By the way, what's going on with the Qi family?" ”

"Oh, I heard Zuo Xiangye say that the person has been found. The letter was also sent. However, I'm afraid it will be a few days before I get a reply. ”

The emperor smiled bitterly twice and sighed.

"Time, luck, and life...... Now, I can only do my best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”

"Your Majesty, in recent days, the prince has also made some adjustments to the personnel everywhere, don't you want to ask about these?"

"No need. Let him go. ”

Saying that, the emperor lay down, and Fu Hai saw that the emperor didn't want to speak, so he stopped talking, just stood aside, and sighed silently.

Yun Zhen has been sitting in the court room, and has not moved for most of the day. Until a little eunuch whispered outside: "Lord Wang, the Queen Mother, please come over." That's when there was a reaction. Yun Zhen's mood at the moment was so bad that it couldn't be worsened, he pushed open the door, and then said to the little eunuch who passed the word: "Go back to the Queen Mother, say that this king is unwell, and it is not suitable to meet him today, and he has already returned to the house." ”

"Yes."

Looking at Prince Xian's face that was so cold that he could scrape off the frost, the little eunuch didn't dare to say anything, and quietly retreated.

On the carriage on the way back, Yun Zhen pinched the rosary in his hand tightly, no matter what method he used, He Xuan's life was reserved!

After getting out of the car, the first thing he did was to send people and give them seven days to look for people who were similar to He Xuan's physique and appearance.
