Chapter 209: The Empress summoned him with suspicion
Something happened in Yuchan Palace, and Nangong Zhen, who had been sleeping in Yuchan Palace for the past few days, naturally knew about it.
I saw Concubine Yu leaning on Nangong Zhen's arms with tears in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, you must be the master of your concubines."
"I know, I know." Nangong Zhen said with a headache.
"Although Zuo'er is only the personal palace maid of the concubine, but if she doesn't catch this murderer for a day, the concubine won't be able to feel at ease for a day, just in case, just in case...... The concubine didn't dare to think about it. Concubine Yu said with some horror.
"Okay, I will never let this happen again, so I don't have to worry about it."
"Your Majesty ......." Concubine Yu heard the trace of impatience in Nangong Zhen's words, and did not continue to say anything, but unconsciously leaned into Nangong Zhen's arms.
The subtle movements made Nangong Zhen feel that the woman in his arms was really scared and needed him now.
"Well, don't be afraid, I'm here." Nangong Zhen softened his voice and said.
"Your Majesty." The prince beside the emperor shouted respectfully outside the door.
"What?"
"The national teacher has something to see."
"Let him go to the council hall and wait for me."
"Yes."
"Ai Fei, the national teacher has something to discuss with me, and I will come when I go." Nangong Zhen gently patted Concubine Yu's back and removed her from her arms.
The jade concubine with tears on her face still not dried looked even more touching and lovable at this moment.
"The concubines are waiting for the emperor." Although Concubine Yu was choked, she still couldn't hide her delicate and intoxicating voice.
Nangong Zhen nodded, turned around and walked out of Yuchan Palace.
After Nangong Zhen's back disappeared from Concubine Yu's sight, I saw that the corners of Concubine Yu's mouth, who was still looking good, suddenly raised a wicked smile.
Hmph, Concubine Li, what are you going to do to fight with this palace, now that a cheap maid in this palace is injured, the emperor has already strengthened the guards of Yuchan Palace, and he is with him every step of the way, you lost, and you lost!
"Right."
"Mother." You'er walked in quickly.
"Go and tell the imperial doctor, this palace doesn't want Zuo'er to get better too quickly."
When You'er heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he understood Concubine Yu's words, and his heart sank, it seems that Zuo'er is more than lucky this time.
"The slave obeys." Although she and Zuo'er are both the personal palace maids beside Concubine Yu, Concubine Yu was biased towards Zuo'er before, but now it's okay, hehe, Zuo'er, don't blame me for being ruthless, the person who wants your life is not me, but the master you serve wholeheartedly - Concubine Yu.
Inside the Parliamentary Hall.
The national teacher stood there respectfully.
"What does the national teacher have to play for me?" Nangong Zhen sat on the dragon chair, obviously a little absent-minded.
"Back to the emperor, the minister heard about what happened in Yuchan Palace today, so he went to check outside the Jade Chan Palace."
"Oh? Has the national teacher checked it? The result? Nangong Zhen squinted at him slightly.
Dao Xin paused, and then said with some embarrassment: "This matter is not man-made. ”
Nangong Zhen's face changed instantly, "What does the national teacher mean by this?" ”
"Back to the emperor, the minister went to check, Yuchan Palace is too evil, and the yin qi has been hovering over the entire palace, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it is no different."
"Evil? Yin Qi? Nangong Zhen's face was a little solemn, and he asked in a deep voice, "Why does such a thing appear in Yuchan Palace?" ”
"The minister still doesn't know, I hope the emperor will allow the minister to go to Yuchan Palace to do a ritual, first, to find out the source of the evil spirit, and second, to protect the safety of the mother."
Nangong Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "I agreed." ”
"By the way, the emperor, now this Yuchan Palace has not been removed, for the sake of the emperor's safety, the minister implores the emperor not to go to the Yuchan Palace in the near future, everything will be dealt with by Weichen first."
"This ......" The emperor was embarrassed, he had just promised Concubine Yu before, and he would accompany her as soon as he dealt with the matter, but now, ......
"Your Majesty, this matter is very important, I hope the emperor will think twice, this kind of non-human factor is difficult to control." Dao Xin said respectfully, but there was a slight warning in his words.
Nangong Zhen naturally heard it, but he saw that his face sank, and he pursed his mouth tightly and said nothing.
"Your Majesty, if the minister's advice is against the emperor, I hope the emperor will forgive you, but the minister is dedicated to the emperor's good, so he does not hesitate to offend the emperor and warn him." Dao Xin looked at death as if he were at home.
After a moment of silence, Nangong Zhen waved his hand, "That's it, pass on my will, the national teacher will open the altar in Yuchan Palace." ”
"Yes." The prince beside him said respectfully.
"The minister retired."
Nangong Zhen waved his hand and didn't speak again.
Inside the Phoenix.
"Niangniang, the slave maid has delivered the letter to the national teacher according to your instructions."
"Okay, then we'll wait to see the show." The corners of Concubine Li's mouth raised a smug smile slightly, "Qiu Qin, pay attention to the emperor's whereabouts and report to the palace at any time." ”
"The slave obeys." Han Xiluo slowly retreated.
"Pian." called out to Li'er, who was standing outside the door, and Han Xiluo said: "Niangniang ordered me to go out to run errands, so you can stay by your side and serve Niangniang." ”
"Qiu Qin, what did Niang Niang let you do?" Li'er approached Han Xiluo and asked in a low voice.
"Don't ask." Although I know that Li'er will not harm herself, in this deep palace, it is better to say more than less, and the fewer people who know, the safer you will be.
"Well, then you should be careful." A hint of worry flashed in Li'er's eyes.
"Hmm." Han Xiluo looked at Li'er's expression, and felt more and more in his heart that Li'er must be an ordinary palace maid.
Turning around and leaving the dormitory, Han Xiluo didn't notice that behind her, Li'er's face changed rapidly, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Stop, it's Qiu Qin from Fengzao Palace?" A father-in-law walked in front of him and pointed at Han Xiluo proudly and said.
"Slave and maid see father-in-law." Han Xiluo shook slightly, she recognized it, this father-in-law was the person next to the queen.
"Come, come with me."
"May I ask where my father-in-law wants to take the slaves and maids?" Han Xiluo stood still and didn't move, of course she knew that the queen was looking for her, but she didn't know why the queen was looking for her.
"You'll find out if you follow." The father-in-law glanced at Han Xiluo with some disdain.
"If the father-in-law doesn't explain, then the slave and maid are not allowed to go with the father-in-law." Han Xiluo said that he was about to turn around and leave, joking, when you are the princess, I am the person, you say that you will go with you.
"Bold! The queen mother's summons to you, this little maidservant dares to disobey. The father-in-law looked at Han Xiluo with a cross-eyebrow.
"It turned out that the queen summoned her, so the slave and maid naturally have to go, please ask your father-in-law to lead the way." Han Xiluo had a light smile on his lips.
"Hmph." The father-in-law snorted from his nose, then ignored Han Xiluo and walked forward.
Han Xiluo followed sullenly, this queen finally came to her, since the last time she found the queen's people to spy on her, she knew that the queen would find her sooner or later, but I don't know why it was at this time.
Unconsciously, Han Xiluo followed his father-in-law to the front of Chuxiu Palace.
"Let's go in, I'm waiting inside." The father-in-law glanced at Han Xiluo.
Han Xiluo blessed his body slightly, and then walked in.
Since Nangong Zhe's death, Chuxiu Palace has fallen into a dead silence, although the queen was released from the cold palace, but she has been staying in Chuxiu Palace and is unwilling to leave.
Walking into the dormitory, Han Xiluo found that Chuxiu Palace was much darker than other palaces, and when he walked in, he always gave people a cold feeling.
Han Xiluo looked around, and finally saw the queen mother leaning against her eyes on the couch next to the bed.
"Slave Qiuqin see the queen's mother." Qiu Qin whispered and respectfully said.
"Get up." The queen did not open her eyes.
Han Xiluo slowly stood up, "I don't know what happened when the queen summoned the slaves and maids to come?" ”
As soon as Han Xiluo's words came out, he saw that the queen mother suddenly opened her eyes and began to look Qiu Qin up and down carefully.
Han Xiluo stood like this and didn't dare to make a sound, pretending to be submissive, constantly guessing in her heart the purpose of the queen's visit to her this time.
"You are the personal palace maid next to Concubine Li?"
"Hui Niangniang, yes."
"Are you sure you're just a palace maid?"
"Slave maid, I don't understand what you mean, Niangniang?" Han Xiluo carefully observed the expression on the queen's face.
Syllable! I saw that the queen suddenly threw out something and just landed in front of Han Xiluo.
"Is this sachet yours?"
Yes! Han Xiluo's heart sank suddenly, no wonder he couldn't see this sachet after looking everywhere, it turned out to be here with the queen.
"Back to the Queen, yes."
"Hmph, do you know where Hongu picked it up?"
"The slave doesn't know." Han Xiluo suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, could it be that he picked it up there......
"Hehe, I really don't know or I'm pretending to be confused with this palace!" The queen's voice was visibly angry.
"Please forgive the mother, the slave really doesn't know." Han Xiluo still denied it.
"Hmph, then this palace told you that this thing was found in the cold palace."
Sure enough, Han Xiluo sighed helplessly in his heart, alas, what a misstep that has been hated for thousands of years, damn Nangong Liye, do you know how much energy you need from this princess to fulfill my lies on a whim!
"This palace wants to ask, why did you, a palace maid next to Concubine Li, go to the cold palace?" The queen looked at Han Xiluo coldly.
Alas, how do you say this, could it be that the queen told the queen that this sachet was originally placed in the bedroom, but I don't know how I couldn't find it, could it be that the cat or dog took it away, and then appeared in the cold palace?
Forget it, is being a queen an idiot? Alas, alas, alas, after countless sighs in his heart, Han Xiluo slowly spoke.
"Back to Niangniang, when the slave maid walked outside the Yuchan Palace, she found that a person sneakily came out of the Yuchan Palace, the slave and maid were curious, so she followed and looked, and found that the person actually walked into the cold palace, the slave and maid did not dare to follow up easily, so they waited outside, and found that the person had not come out for a long time, and the slave and maid walked in with courage, and found that the person was gone, and the slave and maid looked for no one here, and the slave and maid came out, and the sachet may have been pulled down at that time." Han Xiluo said in an orderly manner without hurry, as if this matter had really existed.
The queen didn't speak, just looked at her coldly, as if trying to find a flaw in her expression.
