Chapter 114: Time waits for no one

The two chatted for a while, and suddenly became very interested in Gongsun Fu's mother, "Bring Lingtang over to play another day." ”

Gongsun Fu was stunned, why did the "senior ......" ask him to bring his mother alone?

The man looked back, looked at Gongsun Fu's eyes, knew what he was thinking at the moment, and explained lightly, "I just think that listening to your description, your mother is very similar to an old friend of mine." ”

Gongsun Fu breathed a sigh of relief, but when he mentioned his mother, he couldn't help but feel a little sad, "Mother, I'm afraid she won't be able to come." ”

"What's wrong?" The man turned his head.

Gongsun Fu said, "She was poisoned, a very rare poison, there is only one antidote, and I am searching everywhere." He didn't say anything about the antidote in the hands of the prince, for fear that talking too much would make the man think that their family was complicated and would disagree with his marriage with Qing'er.

The man didn't ask any more, and looked into the distance as if he had something to do.

At this time, Li Qingqing was cunning and fell.

The two stood up at the same time, but the next moment, the man did not catch up, but watched Gongsun Fu nervously help each other, and he simply carried the pot and drank alone.

"Take a break!" The man got up and went back to the house, flicked his sleeves and said a lazy word as he left.

Li Qingqing was overjoyed, but soon noticed that his father seemed to be full of worries, and turned his eyes to look at Gongsun Fu.

Gongsun Fu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

……

Due to the retreat of Beixing and the Kite Kingdom at the same time, Daqi barely kept the land.

The empress wanted to return to the court, but received a holy decree from the empress to guard the border.

The holy decree said that the sudden withdrawal of troops from the two countries may be strange, and they also hope to guard the border passes in anticipation of the second holy decree.

In addition, in addition to the border passes, other passes should also be paid attention to at all times, and the local assassins under the empress's holy decree should always pay attention to the enemy's movements.

But the holy decree of such a holy decree made it difficult for the imperial princess to accept, because the battle was over, she should go back to assist the mother emperor, staying at the border for a long time would only make her regime unstable, how to rest assured.

What's more, people who are well versed in the regime know that she, the captain, actually doesn't have much military power, so this is enough to see how uneasy the mother queen is about her.

She now feels that when the hall was burned, although the evidence about her was blown up, the mother must have remembered it in her heart, and she might settle accounts now after the autumn.

Thinking about it like this, she wants to go back even more.

"Someone, go to Chang'an!"

"Your Highness!" The henchmen beside the empress dowager hurriedly came up, "The general Cao Yuan left his post without permission, and now I am afraid that he has left the city."

The subordinates thought that His Royal Highness would send a letter back to the palace this time, and His Majesty would definitely not allow His Highness to enter the palace. It's better to go back in the name of chasing General Cao, so that Your Majesty will have nothing to say. ”

The empress thought about it carefully, and a wicked smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, "That's it." ”

So, that night, the queen daughter chased Cao Yuan with several teams of people overnight.

……

In the deep palace

The empress was holding a candle to review the folds, and in the Xuan room, the inner servants were all screened outside, and the empress sat alone on the head, frowning and judging the twists and turns on the case.

On the fold are the various crimes of several officials of the DPRK and China.

Although the last palace fire burned the ledger, these people did a lot of evil, and there were always ministers who caught their clues from elsewhere.

The empress counted the officials involved in the court, as many as 30 people, and all of them occupied such and such important positions. If these people do not pay it all at once, it will only leave them time to cover up the evidence, but if they do pay it all at once, it will cause the vigilance of Emperor Mu Zhengjun.

The empress now feels that her body is not as good as before.

Almost after that fire, the empress guarded the border and the five empresses were forced into exile, after which she was physically and mentally exhausted and haggard.

The imperial physician said that she was caused by the hard work of the fruit, but the empress felt that someone must have done something in her diet, and this person has not yet been found, and it is most likely that she can't find out because she covers the sky with one hand.

"Your Majesty! Tingwei Zhong Chuyue asked to see him. "Father-in-law Feng is reporting outside.

The empress hid her fluctuating emotions and said, "Xuan! ”

Gonggong Feng immediately pushed the door in, retreated sideways, and let Zhong Chuyue enter the house, and then he weakly stepped back and bowed outside to wait.

Zhong Chuyue came to the empress, and was just about to kneel down and salute but was excused by the empress, "Come and say!" ”

She hooked her jade hand.

Zhong Chuyue walked up, knelt on the soft mattress in front of the empress, and whispered, "The things Your Majesty ate a few days ago are indeed poisonous.

The poisoner's technique is very ingenious, which is to combine two conflicting things to achieve the purpose of poisoning. ”

"What's that?"

"His Royal Highness's favorite jade cake and incense."

The empress's eyes immediately opened, and her cold gaze revealed a bit of shrewdness, "Is it Hua Gongzi?" ”

This Hua Gongzi is the noble man that Li Qingqing met in the harem before.

Hua Guiren was originally in the same drama group as Nangong Changming, and he knew very well about Li Qingqing and Nangong Changming, so he dared to talk about it openly and secretly when he was in the harem last time.

After Nangong Changming died, the empress was happy and promoted his position and was named Prince Hua.

But after that, the empress did not summon him to sleep, but later, after the empress dewaged to the border, the empress suddenly separated from Emperor Mu Zhengjun, and Hua Gongzi frequently appeared in front of the emperor.

However, the empress did not think that a small unfavored son dared to make such a dead hand, most of them were also used, and the person who used him must be Emperor Mu Zhengjun.

He should be eager to let the princess return to the court at this moment, and he can't wait to suppress her.

Thinking of this, the empress became more and more flustered, and in a momentary gaffe, she grabbed Zhong Chuyue's wrist, and Zhong Chuyue frowned slightly.

The empress didn't let go, but her eyes followed, and her expression became more and more serious, "Find the fifth empress immediately and let her go back to the palace!" ”

Zhong Chuyue was slightly stunned, Your Majesty is going to entrust the Fifth Princess? And the reason? What is the reason for summoning a deposed princess to the palace?

The empress seemed to see through her thoughts, and said, "You think for yourself!" ”

"Yes!" Zhong Chuyue obeyed.

After coming out of the Xuan room, her heart has been uneasy, and she feels that there is a pair of eyes staring at her behind the scenes, but when she turns around, there is nothing.

Speaking of the five princesses, Zhong Chuyue actually doesn't like this princess very much in her heart, she also has a desire for power like other princesses. Rather than giving up the throne to the five princesses in the future, it is better to give it to the four princes who have always been indifferent to fame and fortune.

It's a pity that their Zhong family has always been the empress, and she never objected to His Majesty's words.

In this way, Zhong Chuyue left the palace with a heavy heart.

As for the reason for leaving the city, she had already thought about it. She let Suo Ye who was locked up in the prison go, on the grounds that the prisoner had escaped, and she chased the prisoner.

In fact, the moment Suo Ye escaped, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and the joy in her heart couldn't help but be revealed, fortunately, there was no one around, and the cell head and jailers were all sent out by her, and no one saw it.
