The emperor had already turned around to see Concubine Yu, but when he heard Mrs. Fengguo's words, he stopped and turned back suddenly. His eyes wandered between Qingrong and Mrs. Fengguo, as if he was exploring some conspiracy.

Qingrong put his hands in his sleeves, clutched his sleeves tightly, hung his head, and tried his face to be expressionless.

Mrs. Fengguo was indifferent and said, "Otherwise, just ask Grandpa An to help bring a sentence." Or call Huatang over. ”

The emperor still believed in his heart that Mrs. Fengguo would not collude with the King of Liao, and he also felt that the King of Liao would not prepare anything in advance.

But today, when he heard that the King of Liao wanted to take the queen back to Liaozhou, he felt that he couldn't help it. Especially when he saw Qingrong in the side hall, the emperor thought of the power of the artillery, and suddenly felt that Shen Qingrong could not be used by anyone, and Shen Qingrong had to stay by his side.

Qingrong looked at Mrs. Fengguo at a loss, and Mrs. Fengguo gave a comforting look.

The emperor turned his head and said to Concubine Li Guifei: "Send two people from your side to serve Qingrong." ”

Qingrong's heart sank to the bottom, and the whole person fell coldly. She didn't need anyone to serve her at all, let alone Mrs. Fengguo in the palace, as well as her little assistant.

The emperor said this basically so that Concubine Li Guifei could send someone to spy on herself and Mrs. Fengguo.

The person Li Guifei can send over must be someone Li Guifei trusts very much.

Mrs. Fengguo was obviously a little unexpected, and the two were soon invited to the house in the side hall by someone sent by Concubine Li.

After about half an hour, Concubine Yu had been sent back to her bedroom. Qingrong and Mrs. Fengguo were still detained in the house, and Concubine Li's people also said that this was the place where the incident occurred, so that Mrs. Fengguo and Mrs. Qingrong could investigate thoroughly.

Until the sun went down and it was dark, no one came to let Mrs. Fengguo and Qingrong go out.

"I'm the one who bothered my grandmother." Qingrong hung his head, and his face was pale.

Mrs. Fengguo said with a calm face: "What are you talking about, when did you trouble me?" ”

Qingrong frowned, looking depressed without paying attention, and said: "Now I don't know what the emperor will do with us, the queen mother originally handed over the edict to me, just didn't want my grandmother to get involved in this matter." But my grandmother ...... for me."

Mrs. Fengguo had a serious expression and said, "Don't always think of yourself so badly, I'm not just for you." Now is the most important time to calm down, and not to mess around. ”

Qingrong couldn't control himself from thinking nonsense, and his voice became lower and lower, "I don't know what happened to King Liao and Song Zhao." ”

Mrs. Fengguo shook her head towards Qingrong, glanced at the door, and said in a low voice: "The wall has ears, what we can do has been done, and the rest of the matter can only be done to the best of our ability." But you have to remember that no matter what the emperor asks in the future, you have to say that you don't know about the queen mother's edict. ”

Qingrong nodded again and again, the two of them were like frightened birds all night, and they never slept well.

It was not until dawn the next day that the door was opened.

It was Liushang's Lu Shang Palace, she was dressed in neat official clothes, and when she entered the door, she saluted Mrs. Fengguo in a proper manner and said, "Madame is healthy." ”

Mrs. Fengguo sat up straight, brushed some fine hair, and said very majestically: "How is the Jade Concubine?" ”

Lu Shanggong said: "Concubine Yu Niangniang is fine, she has woken up after using medicine." The palace people who were detained last night committed suicide in fear of sin. ”

Mrs. Fengguo was not surprised at all, and smiled coldly: "Do you know where the poison came from?" ”

"The self-cut palace maid has rat medicine in her house, which was purchased at the beginning of this year when the palace was rid of snakes, insects, rats and ants. It is not impossible that she had secretly stayed at that time. ”

Mrs. Fengguo said: "Where was she on an errand at the beginning of the year? ”

Lu Shanggong said: "At the beginning of the year, I was indeed not in Liushang, but on an errand in the Internal Service Bureau. I was admitted to the Shangshi Bureau in the middle of the year. ”

Mrs. Fengguo lowered her eyebrows, "Who arranged to be admitted to the Shangshi Bureau, it is someone from Concubine Li's palace?" ”

Lu Shanggong shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's the Jade Concubine Niangniang." ”

Mrs. Fengguo nodded, she had already made a decision, "Just find out this, the palace maid will die if she dies, find an explanation." ”

Lu Shanggong hesitated again: "But that thing was originally for the Seventh Prince, and the Jade Concubine Niangniang tried a mouthful of hot and cold, and before she could feed it to the Seventh Prince, she was poisoned." The medical officer said that if the Seven Princes used it, I am afraid that they would definitely die. ”

Mrs. Fengguo was even more sure of something, nodded, told Lu Shanggong what she had thought of, and let everyone who came push it down together.

Qingrong was a little dumbfounded, and said, "This is considered clear?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo sneered, "The things in the palace are never clear, Princess Yongping helped Li Guifei a lot after returning to the palace, and Concubine Yu was not less angry." It's just that Concubine Li Guifei is powerful, and Concubine Yu can only use herself as a raft to frame her repeatedly over the years. It is better to have a jade concubine in the palace than Li Guifei alone. ”

Qingrong naturally helped Concubine Yu, so she didn't ask any more. Soon Mrs. Fengguo asked people to report to the emperor, saying that she had found out.

Who knew that the person who went to report went out, and someone came from the emperor's side, inviting the grandfather and grandson to go to the imperial study.

The imperial study seemed to have just finished discussing, and when Mrs. Fengguo and Qingrong entered the door, they saw the emperor sitting on the throne with his arms crossed with solemn eyes.

Mrs. Fengguo and Qingrong stepped forward and saluted respectfully to the emperor.

The emperor stared at the two of them without saying a word, and let Mrs. Fengguo and Qingrong kneel for a long time before finally asking Mrs. Fengguo: "Madam, what do you know?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo was neither humble nor arrogant, and said lightly: "The slave doesn't know anything. ”

The emperor slapped the big pillow on the throne and said angrily: "I don't know? The Liao Wangfu and the Wei Mansion went to the empty building, if it wasn't for the early plan, how could it be arranged so meticulously and foolproof? ”

When Qingrong heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but after thinking about it, he felt that the emperor had quickly discovered that the King of Liao and the Duke of Wei had fled. So is the emperor in the way? Did they really run?

Qingrong didn't dare to let the emperor notice his excited emotions, and hung his head tightly, motionless.

Mrs. Fengguo was not shocked, and said with a straight face: "The emperor's suppression of the King of Liao and the Song family is not a day or two, and the King of Liao and the Duke of Wei are not fools, so they naturally have their own attention." Slaves and maids have served in the palace for many years, and if the emperor can't trust the slaves and maids, the slaves and maids have nothing to do. ”

The emperor looked at Mrs. Fengguo fixedly and said, "The queen mother's edict, you didn't tell others?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo said calmly: "No, the queen mother's edict should not be taken lightly, and the slave maid has always kept it close to her, and she dare not have any mistakes." If the emperor can't even trust the slave and the maid, he can cure the slave and the slave. ”

The emperor looked at Qingrong suspiciously, "You don't know either?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo has already taken all the edicts on herself, and Qingrong can't say that she leaks her mouth, and she is causing chaos to Mrs. Fengguo. She was also calm and said, "I don't know, the minister has never heard of the queen mother's edict." Since the King of Liao came back from southern Xinjiang, the ministers lived in a simple place, and they did not meet the King of Liao and the people of the Song family alone, that is, they went to the Hui Quality Essence House, and they did not say a word alone when they met the daughter-in-law of the Song family. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can ask people to go to the Hui Jing House to ask. ”

The emperor was also very confident that his plan to force the palace would never be detected so easily. Therefore, whether it is the preparation of the King of Liao or the Duke of Wei to go to Liaozhou, it is just a coincidence.

Although the emperor was still a little suspicious in his heart, he always felt a little strange that he couldn't say.

"How's the matter of Concubine Yu?" The emperor no longer asks about the queen mother's edict.

Mrs. Fengguo continued to say lightly: "The discord between the palace people, the person who caused the trouble has already committed suicide in fear of sin. The poisoned medicine is the poison of snakes, insects, rats and ants in the palace at the beginning of the year, and the toxicity is not serious. However, that thing can still be resisted, if His Royal Highness King Jin uses it, I am afraid that something big will happen. ”

The emperor said: "Are you sure she poisoned her?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo said: "The unused poison has been found in her house, and it has been found that she has indeed registered it before, so there is nothing wrong with that." ”

The emperor nodded, and asked Mrs. Fengguo again, "What is the origin of the palace people?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo did not tell the emperor about this person's dealings with Concubine Yu, but only told the people who had been in the Inner Chamberlain Bureau and where he was before entering the palace.

The emperor looked at Mrs. Fengguo faintly and asked, "Is it possible that this matter is aimed at King Jin?" ”

Mrs. Fengguo said: "The slave doesn't know, but the emperor's favor to the king of Jin is really eye-catching." ”

The emperor fell into deep thought, and did not say anything more, and after a while, he said with some tiredness: "Stand down." ”

Qingrong and Mrs. Fengguo saluted to the emperor, and were about to step forward to help Mrs. Fengguo, but they heard the emperor say: "The capital has not been peaceful these days, so Mrs. and Qingrong will stay in the palace for the time being." I have already arranged for the courtyard where Madame used to live, and you will stay there for the time being.

Qingrong didn't expect that the emperor would plan to continue to detain her and Mrs. Fengguo. She couldn't figure it out, what was the emperor worried about?

She and Mrs. Fengguo could not leave the palace, so they could only continue to be monitored by Concubine Li's palace. They can't even ask for news.

The cold wind in winter hit Qingrong's body, and she followed Mrs. Fengguo closely between the towering red walls, but her heart was about to fly to Liaozhou.

She let out a long sigh and said, "I didn't realize that this palace wall was so high. ”

Mrs. Fengguo couldn't help but smile bitterly, "You have been in the palace for so long, did you find out?" ”

Qingrong replied thoughtfully: "I went out from the palace for a while, I don't want to stay for so long this time." ”

Mrs. Fengguo looked up at the clear and cloudless sky and said, "Then maybe you have to watch it for a few more days." When you stay long enough, you will find that not all the palace walls are painted with neat red paint, and there are many mottled and peeling off, which is very decadent. ”

The two were walking, and suddenly someone came out of a palace gate with their shoulders on their shoulders.

Mrs. Fengguo and Qingrong leaned against the palace wall for a long time, kneeling respectfully and bowing their heads.

The people carrying the shoulders listened to Qingrong and Mrs. Fengguo.

"Shen Qingrong, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Princess Yongping's gloating chuckle swirled over Qingrong's head, and the voice was very sharp and harsh, annoying.
