Sure enough, in the matter of men and women, whether it is physical strength or endurance, men have a natural advantage. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Qinglang faintly. But as soon as she raised her head, she was facing the pair of eyes that were still unfinished, and immediately, her body stiffened, and she said with a smile: "Then I'll go back to the house first, tomorrow, you remember to help me take leave, and when I have rested enough, I will go to the palace to get my official uniform......"

After speaking, she loosened the neckline of Xiao Qinglang, who was holding tightly by herself, and then dragged her toolbox and got out of the carriage. That figure really had a sense of running away in a hurry.

Xiao Qinglang watched her enter the mansion door, and saw the doorman he sent close the door, so he smiled and raised his hand to touch the corner of his mouth.

What are you afraid of, this time, he can't fight...... It's just how to break the game, and it will take some time to arrange.

In the Empress Dowager's palace, the lights did not stop all night. The Queen Mother, who has always been dignified and peaceful, is full of sadness at this time, and the Buddha beads in her hands are not twisting very fast, which shows her inner turmoil at the moment.

Seeing this, Mama Song beside her couldn't help but sigh and worry: "Queen Mother, it's better to rest first, you've been boiling for a long time." ”

The Queen Mother rubbed her forehead and said in a rather tired tone: "How can I rest." Earlier, since the emperor got the news of the secret passage of Changli Palace, I secretly felt that this matter was not good. Before I could stop him, Xuanzhi had already been injured by a secret weapon in England, and now his life and death are unknown......"

When Mama Song heard this, she knew that the Queen Mother was probably too confused at this time, so that she was worried that King Jing'an would continue to investigate and discover the truth. I was also worried that he would be in a coma due to poisoning, and he would have to worry about his life.

She thought about it, and could only comfort the Queen Mother and said: "Wang Yeji has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be fine." It's just that...... It's just that if the Queen Mother doesn't want those things to be revealed, then she has to think of a way......"

"You mean......" The Queen Mother frowned, looked at Mama Song with an uncertain expression, and squinted her eyes after a long time before she said, "Let me think about this matter for a few more days, and now is not the last resort, I don't want to make a mistake." ”

Mama Song responded, stood beside her respectfully and stopped talking.

The queen mother is full of contemplation, and the emperor's side has not been much better.

So much has happened lately, and everything is directed at the royal family. The Dong Family Courtyard in front, Dong Ruiyang, or the British Gong and Xuanyang Daoist who were later involved are like nodes in a net, and what seems to be an independent case is actually just a chess piece of the person behind that net. And the real purpose of that person is the Xiao family of the Great Zhou royal family......

If he can sit on the throne, he naturally can't be incompetent. In fact, as an emperor, what he is best at is conspiracy theories.

All the above, whether it is the copper coins privately minted in Jinzhou City, the weapons that were secretly created, or the stolen money that has disappeared, no matter which one shows that the person is running for the throne.

However, unlike directly exposing the rod, the man has been plotting in secret. It's like wanting to hit with one hit. However, the person who has been dormant always can't bear to provoke the three law divisions and the court, which makes people feel clearly but can't figure it out.

If he wants to hide his identity, how can there be so many incidents?

There is also the protector of the country, what is the purpose of pulling him into the water?

Thinking of this, the emperor's eyes couldn't help but fall on the stack of folds on the imperial case.

When the Marquis of the Protector is imprisoned, the defense of Gyeonggi will be free to drill. If nothing else, it should be his lieutenant General Peng who will take over his power.

The emperor squinted, glanced at Liu Deming, who was hurrying back to the palace during the day, and ordered in a low voice: "Prepare plainclothes and carriages, I want to leave the palace." ”

Liu Deming was shocked, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, it seems that it is about to be the time of the early dynasty, and it is too risky to leave the palace at this time." ”

The emperor frowned, and said with a cold expression: "But if I don't go out of the palace to see Xuanzhi in person, I feel uneasy." ”

Before he finished his words, the eunuch who was guarding outside hurriedly came to report, saying that he had something important to ask to see the emperor.

Liu Deming got the emperor's permission and left the imperial study to check. After a cup of tea, he returned with a smile on his face and said: "Your Majesty, it was the little eunuch sent by the old slave to the Jing'an Palace, saying that the prince is now well, and tomorrow will be the morning as usual." He paused, his face was a little weird, and he said with some hesitation, "It's just that the prince still has one thing, saying that Lord Xu is unwell and needs to take a day off tomorrow......

When the emperor heard the news that Xiao Qinglang had woken up, his heart was relieved and he sat back on the dragon chair. But when he heard that he was going to take leave for Xu Chu, his face became a little strange, as long as this Xuanzhi was in Beijing, he was never absent from the early dynasty.

There have been officials who took leave because of physical fatigue or occasional cold, and they were all coldly ridiculed by him. If the official had always been a man who fished in troubled waters, he would only speak more excessively, so as long as he was in the capital, few courtiers would delay their official duties because of some headaches, brain fever, or household affairs.

Now, he will take the initiative to take leave for others? And because of physical discomfort, this thing is really rare.

The emperor knew that he had come to his senses and that he would be early tomorrow, so he knew in his heart that today's poisoning was probably a trap. Therefore, he was not anxious, but said helplessly: "This Xuanzhi is becoming more and more uncertain, not to mention the danger of his life, and making such a big move, it really gives me a headache." As soon as he went to court, which of the clear-eyed courtiers couldn't guess the inside story? ”

Although he seemed dissatisfied in his tone, in fact, Liu Deming knew that the emperor did not take this matter seriously. If you really take it seriously, I'm afraid it will be more of a protection for King Jing'an.

Therefore, he hurriedly bowed forward and said slowly: "I want to come to the prince has his own plans, didn't the emperor once say that the prince has always acted in a disciplined manner?" ”

The emperor nodded, and said, "That's just as well." After pondering for a moment, he sighed with emotion, "But I didn't expect that Xuanzhi would not be able to pass this day of beauty." ”

After all, such a grandiose fake public benefit is not like the style of his third brother.

Early the next morning, the morning drums sounded, and the weather, which had been gloomy all day and all night, finally cleared.

When a glimmer of light came out of the sky, the Donghua Gate opened, and the courtiers entered the palace once and for the court.

Because of Xiao Qinglang's sudden appearance and his unclear sneer, many officials who wanted to have a war of words didn't dare to say anything at this time. As for those officials who want to use Xiao Qinglang to break into the British Mansion and then get injured, they are also honest like quails at this time.

There was no turmoil in the early dynasty, and if there was, it would be a matter of welcoming King Su into Beijing.

Because no matter how King Su and King Su are counted, they can be regarded as today's elders. However, King Su has always been in a vein that has never dealt with the orthodox lineage, so the Ministry of Rites is also very embarrassed, and I don't know what kind of etiquette to treat King Su and others.

"Naturally, it is treated with the etiquette of entertaining the royal family, and the Ministry of Industry sent people to rebuild the Su Wang's Mansion after the early dynasty, so that the Su King and others have a place to settle down after returning to Beijing." The emperor's face was calm, and he did not see gloom and annoyance, but said in a dignified tone, "Such a trivial matter also needs to be asked by me personally, what do the officials of the Ministry of Rites do?" ”

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites was questioned, but he didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. After a long time, the emperor looked around the court and said: "The state of etiquette in the Great Zhou Dynasty naturally needs to abide by the common sense of respect and inferiority and thoughtful etiquette. Although King Su once had a different heart, but now that he has entered Beijing to worship his ancestors, and wants to let his sons and nephews honor the queen mother, I naturally can't help but be affectionate. What do you think? ”

These words seemed to be inappropriate, but they were like a thunderbolt in the hearts of the courtiers. They are not dead-eyed people, so they can naturally hear the warning and coldness in the emperor's words.

King Su has never stopped thinking about taking the heir since the time of the Holy Grandfather. Now, even if it has been suppressed for nearly a hundred years, who can guarantee that those suppressions will completely eliminate their desire to covet power and the throne?

What's more, in the big case in Jinzhou City, the real black hand has never been caught. Although all those fake officials were arrested and disposed of, the imperial court did not judge who was behind them.

Even Song Derong only knew that the man walked in the capital all the year round, and he was extravagant and compelling, and he was called Rong Gong. It's just that no one knows what kind of character this Rong Gong is. After all, the Three Law Divisions sent people to draw all the number of people in the capital into a picture album for Song Derong to identify, but he denied them all.

Since he is not a person who always walks in front of people, he must be on the side.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all had their own suspicions in their hearts, and only Xiao Qinglang knew to the emperor that the so-called Rong Gong was not the son that King Su recognized ten years ago. Although the name of King Su was changed to Sun Yourong, and later changed his name to Xiao Yourong, according to Song Deqing's identification of the portrait, the real Rong Gong was not him.

In the harem, the Queen Mother got a letter from the emperor and knew that Xiao Qinglang was in good health, so she couldn't help but sigh as soon as she was relieved.

She looked at the queen who was helping her to worship the Buddha by her side, and said, "Queen, it's not too early, you can go back." ”

Sandalwood smoke swirled out from the exquisitely hollowed out franc incense burner, and then filled the room with a little hazy. This sandalwood is specially made in the palace, although there is smoke, it is not choking, so even if it is a queen who wants to jump out of the thunder, she can also calm down here for a while.

The queen put down the Buddhist scriptures in her hand, and saw that the queen mother seemed to be a little dignified and worried on her face, so she persuaded her: "Don't worry about the queen mother, since Xuanzhi has been able to go to court, it must be that there is no serious illness in her body." Besides, I heard the emperor say that Xuanzhi's handling of cases has never been based on common sense, maybe this time he has already designed it? ”
