The Wang family has controlled the wind direction of the court for too long. Although Wang San is indeed a rare good prime minister, this does not mean that his juniors are as loyal as him.

It is from these incompetent descendants that corruption begins. This point was understood when Wang Yao told her how the descendants of these big families were officials.

Maybe Wang San can not move, but the Wang clan behind him is becoming more and more powerful, and it is a threat to Nanguo, to Sheji, or to Zhao Xiangling that cannot be ignored.

If you want the country to be strong, you must replace it with fresh blood.

Li Ruiqing looked at the water traces on the table that were drying up little by little, and laughed lightly: "The minister has no intention of opposing His Majesty, he is just thinking about a problem." ”

There was light in his eyes, and he didn't feel the slightest bit of anger at being forced to drink the medicine by Zhao Xiangling, but he seemed a little happy.

Hmph, it's really pretended! This is a deceitful big-tailed wolf who doesn't blink!

Zhao Xiangling pursed his lips: "Oh? What is the left minister thinking about? ”

Li Ruiqing glanced at her, saw the displeasure clearly on her gorgeous face, and suddenly laughed: "The little girl is very bad." ”

Zhao Xiangling was stunned, the latter flicked his fingers above her head, and shook his head: "Your Majesty think about this matter carefully, and the minister will meet that Xuanyin and see what he is from." ”

After speaking, Li Ruiqing turned around and left in a dashing manner.

However, judging from his performance, it doesn't seem that he has much of a problem with his attempts to win him over to join his camp. Even if it's pretended, it's pretending to be quite similar.

Covering his head, Zhao Xiangling's cheeks suddenly turned slightly red, and he looked at the white clothes at the door and said viciously: "Hmph! It's a bad old man! ”

Li Ruiqing paused for a moment and left more quickly. Isn't he too big for Zhao Xiangling to slap the situation, why is it bad for the old man?

Hmph, the girl is very small-minded, and she doesn't care about her.

Seeing him flee in the wilderness, Zhao Xiangling laughed, sat on the table and poured himself a cup of tea to rinse his mouth. The medicine is really bitter, so let the celadon bring him a plate of candied fruit.

Turning her mind, she called, "Celadon." ”

No one answered her.

Zhao Xiangling frowned. Celadon is her personal palace maid, and she has never left her, even if she retreats from everyone, she will never be unable to summon her.

Thinking of this, she got up and walked straight out the door. Sure enough, celadon was not at the door. On the contrary, Qingyun stood on the eaves of the palace not far away.

beckoned, Zhao Xiangling said, "Qingyun, come here." ”

Qingyun hugged his sword and jumped in front of Zhao Xiangling: "Your Majesty." ”

"Where's the celadon?" Zhao Xiangling asked. She knew that celadon could not have anything to do in the palace, and she couldn't have no movement if something happened.

Qingyun replied, "She is on the lotus pond, and I heard that there is some turmoil there. ”

Bowing his head, Qingyun wiped his sword and cherished the abnormality. She doesn't care much about the things around her, she is only responsible for Zhao Xiangling's safety.

"Lotus pond?" Zhao Xiangling frowned, feeling more and more strange, "How can she handle this matter herself?" What about blue and white? ”

Qingge Qingsha is mainly on night duty, and Qingfeng spends most of his time in the embroidery workshop, so it stands to reason that Qinghua is responsible for going to the lotus pond.

Zhao Xiangling remembered that she didn't seem to have seen Qinghua since she woke up.

Speaking of Qinghua, Qingyun paused as he rubbed his sword's hand. She thought for a moment before replying, "Qinghua is in the dungeon." ”

"Dungeon?" Zhao Xiangling was clear, "Was she poisoned?" ”

Qingyun twisted his eyebrows: "No." ”

She held the ring of the sword's hand, and the frost on the sword flashed, hidden in the green clothes and disappeared.

Qingyun's words are short, and he will never say anything that is uncertain. Since she said no, either Qinghua's imprisonment had nothing to do with the incident, or there was not enough evidence to prove that she was poisoned.

And in the palace, who can overstep his authority to detain Qinghua, except for Li Ruiqing, Zhao Xiangling can't think of a second person.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Xiangling said: "Go find the celadon first." ”

Qingyun nodded and helped her forward. She didn't have much reaction to Qinghua's being locked up. Among the six palace maids, Qingyun was the latest to come, and she had not undergone systematic palace training, and her relationship with others was the weakest.

She turned out to be a killer and stayed with Zhao Xiangling two years ago after a failed mission. And her last task was to assassinate Zhao Xiangling.

It was the only task she didn't complete. After being arrested and imprisoned, Zhao Xiangling told her that if she returned to Shun, she would have no tasks in the future. Qingyun thought this was very good, so he stayed by Zhao Xiangling's side as a guard.

The aroma of jasmine in the air is strong, and the snow-white flowers are hidden behind the green leaves, delicate and sven. Zhao Xiangling hurried, stepped on the fallen flowers, and rushed to the lotus pond.

Celadon was indeed by the lotus pond, directing the palace people to throw the orange-red koi into the pond. Seeing Zhao Xiangling, she immediately turned her head and saluted: "Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Xiangling raised his hand and motioned for her to get up: "It's so decent, how can you replace these fish?" ”

There are koi fish in the lotus pond, and there is no rule in the palace to replace the fish in the pond.

Celadon turned his head and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the weather is too hot, and the fish in the pond are easy to suffocate to death, probably because these days are too boring, and the fish have died a lot." ”

It did rain some time ago, and there was a lot of stuffiness. Zhao Xiangling looked along the surface of the water and saw a lot of white bellies, and some fish were chattering on the pool, which was not very fresh.

"It's been like this these days?" Zhao Xiangling always felt that something was not quite right.

Wasn't there a time when I was depressed? How could she never know that fish would die like this?

"Yes, Your Majesty." Celadon replied.

There is a palace maid in charge of the boat on the pond to salvage the dead fish on the pond. Koi are stiff in death, but there is nothing unusual other than stiffness.

Could it really be because of stuffiness?

Stepping on a big rock, Zhao Xiangling lifted the hem of his skirt and bent down to scoop a spoonful of water to take a look.

The water in the pond is clear, because the replacement is timely, and the dead fish do not pollute the water.

Looking at the turquoise water of the pool, Zhao Xiangling smelled a faint fishy smell of the pool water. Not only the fishy smell, but also the fishy smell of herbs.

When she wanted to smell it again, it suddenly became dark in front of her, and she went straight to the side, about to fall into the pool!

Oops! Zhao Xiangling thought to himself, this water was really drugged. However, she didn't suddenly feel dizzy because of the effect of the drug, but after lying down for a few days, she was forced to get up, and she squatted, and she couldn't hold it anymore.

However, if you fall into the pond again, it is a big question whether you can be fished up in time.

Just soak in a poison bath just thoroughly, and think about it will trouble Aunt Xia again. Alas, sure enough, he was as declining as ever.

Seeing that the water surface was getting closer and closer to his face, Zhao Xiangling felt that he should adjust his posture so as not to damage his majesty if his face entered the water first.

Thinking like this, Zhao Xiangling took advantage of the fact that he still had a little strength to turn around, but unexpectedly, someone grabbed her belt and walked to the shore, and happened to throw herself into a warm embrace.
