Ji Ketian went to Lianyan's residence to tell him what happened last night, but opened the door to find it empty.

I think it's a little strange, where did people run away early in the morning?

Just as he was turning around, a servant girl happened to pass by, and Ji Ketian stopped her, "Where did the musician go?" ”

The maid saw that it was the queen's mother, and quickly knelt down, "If you go back to the mother, even the musician went back to his hometown early in the morning because his father was critically ill." ”

Ji Ke listened to it, and hurriedly left, wanting to chase the lotus.

Ji Ke sat in the carriage, took his token, and hurriedly left the palace to find the lotus at the gate of the city.

Out of the palace, Ji Ketian looked at both sides of the street, trying to find the figure of the lotus corpse, but when he arrived at the city gate, he was stopped.

"Who's in the car?"

Ji Ketian lifted the curtain, "It's the main palace." ”

When the soldier saw that he hurriedly knelt down, Ji Ke leaned out, "Don't make a noise, just do your own thing, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”

The soldier bowed his head, "Yes." ”

And just when Ji Ketian was talking to the soldiers, Yan Dong's carriage happened to pass by, and the carriage was carrying Yan Qian, that is, the lotus tree, and passed by Ji Ketian.

I didn't expect to miss it like this, things in the world are always like this, often one doesn't pay attention, and a lot is missed.

But I still don't know it.

Sleeping in the carriage, Lian Yan didn't know it at all, and when he woke up, he was already in his hometown.

He got out of the carriage and sat in a very simple shed at the gate of the city.

"Girl, are you waiting for your husband to return?" The old man looked at the extraordinarily dressed Ji Ke and said with a smile.

"Thank you, old man."

The old man smiled and said, "Girl, just come here and wait." ”

Ji Ketian smiled, gave the old man some reward, and his eyes did not leave the palace gate half a step.

Looking at the vehicles coming and going, I felt a little anxious.

And at this moment, in Fengyi Palace, Father-in-law Nian woke up Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin, who woke up, found that there was no figure around him, and called Mingyue and Caiyue to ask where Ji Ketian went?

I saw the two of them shake their heads, "Your Majesty, Niangniang left after getting up." ”

Xiao Jin was a little strange about what happened last night, and wanted to go to Ji Ke to ask clearly, but was stopped by Father-in-law Nian, "Your Majesty, it's not too early, it's time to go to court." ”

In desperation, Xiao Jin had no choice but to let Father-in-law Nian dress himself, and then went to the court.

When he was in the court, Xiao Jin listened to the advice of the officials below with some absent-mindedness.

After the Ministry of Rites Shangshu reported his affairs clearly, he saw that Xiao Jin did not react, which was a little strange and his heart was uneasy.

Seeing this, Father-in-law Nian stood aside and reminded the emperor in a low voice.

Xiao Jin came back to his senses and waved his hand, "Quasi-play." ”

Xiao Jin glanced at Father-in-law Nian, and then Father-in-law Nian spoke, "Nothing to retreat!" ”

Then, Xiao Jin left quickly, asking if there was any news from the person who sent the dump.

"Your Majesty, according to a maidservant, after seeing the queen's mother at the door of the musician's room in the morning, I don't know where the lady went?"

Xiao Jin sent someone to continue to look for Ji Ke, where did he go?

stood up and looked out the window, I originally wanted to talk to the Queen Mother with Ji Ke Tilt, but I didn't expect to get up in the morning and send Ke Tilt to disappear.

After a while, Father-in-law Nian hurriedly walked in, "Attend the emperor, the emperor, the guard at the gate of the palace said that Niangniang is out of the palace." ”

Xiao Jin nodded to indicate that he understood.

"Slow, tell me to go down, look for the traces of the queen mother in the city, and report it as soon as you find it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

And the one sitting at the gate of the city became more and more anxious.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, and Ji Ketian still didn't see any trace of Lotus Death, he became more and more puzzled in his heart, and blamed Lotus Death even more for saying goodbye.

has experienced so many things, and in Ji Ke's heart, Lotus Death has a pivotal position.

didn't even leave a single letter, and sent more and more complaints about the lotus.

Stamping his feet, his heart gradually darkened with the sky.

The people guarding the city changed a group, and the soldiers stepped forward and saw Ji Ketian still sitting at the gate of the city, "Niangniang, it's getting late, it's better to go back to the palace as soon as possible." ”

"Got it, you go down!"

Ji Ke leaned up and came to the gate of the city, watching the people at the gate of the city gradually become scarce, I don't know how many passes here today, but there is no figure of the lotus death.

I don't know if I sighed a few times today.

Xiao Jin blocked the news and went to Cining Palace alone.

"The emperor is here."

The Queen Mother smiled and looked at the emperor sitting next to her.

"Emperor, you have to rest in Fengyi Palace a lot in the future, so that the emperor's heir will be settled."

Xiao Jin took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and looked at the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, my son thinks about the emperor's heir, let's wait, now that the foundation is not stable, my son wants to wait for the situation to stabilize." ”

The queen mother was a little dissatisfied when she heard it, "Nonsense, the situation is not stable, if there is an imperial heir, wouldn't it be a happy event, and it can also cut off other people's wolf ambitions." ”

"Queen Mother, this matter is also in a hurry."

"Your Majesty, the mourning family also knows, but while you are young, it is also beneficial for you to have a few more imperial heirs."

Xiao Jin knew that the Queen Mother was thinking about her own throne, and it was not good to continue talking, for fear that she would make the Queen Mother angry if she said too much.

Looking at the emperor's appearance, the queen mother also had a trace of speculation in her heart.

"Emperor, the queen has been married to you for a long time, is it because the queen is in poor health?"

When Xiao Jin heard this, he immediately spoke up.

"The queen mother, the queen's body has always been good, and the matter of the emperor's heir is that the son himself is not concerned, and it has nothing to do with the queen."

Looking at the emperor's appearance, the queen mother immediately smiled and waved the handkerchief in her hand, "Emperor, the mourning family just mentioned this, look at you have lost the demeanor of the emperor." The mourning family just said casually, the emperor doesn't have to take it to heart. ”

When Xiao Jin heard this, he smiled a little unnaturally.

I still have lingering palpitations in my heart about what the Queen Mother said to me the day before yesterday.

I'm afraid that if I am not careful, let the queen mother take back the queen's position on the grounds that she has no heir, so how can she be worthy of sending it?

The Queen Mother stood up, "The mourning family is a little tired, the emperor will go back!" ”

Xiao Jin saluted and retired.

Watching Xiao Jin walk away, Mama spoke, "Queen Mother, what do you think about the matter of the imperial heir?" ”

The Queen Mother pursed her lips, "The emperor doesn't care, the mourning family has to think about the emperor, how can this country be inherited if there is no one who can inherit it?" ”

"The Queen Mother is not in a hurry, the queen and the emperor are still young, there will be."

Mama persuaded the Queen Mother on the side.

At this time, the Queen Mother had another plan in her heart.
