069. About the Edict of Succession
On the third day after Gu Yu, Mu Ziqin found a stall to find Luo Ge.
Among those who have been reunited for a long time, they have not seen each other for three days, and goodbye is an endless amount of words. Lu Zhi, who had already been rested, also returned to Luo Ge to serve, and she cleverly led everyone out of the Hanxiang Palace, leaving only the inner attendant who followed the king to wait outside.
"Senior brother, how long will it be okay not to see Chaozhong?" Luo Ge pulled Mu Ziqin and walked straight to the study.
Mu Ziqin followed her into the study, and before she could sit down, she hugged her fiercely in her arms, as if she wanted to rub him into her body.
In the face of the sudden hug, although it hurts, Luo Ge's heart is very sweet. She asked gently, "Senior brother, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Lone wants to hug you again, this feeling of being lost and regained makes Lone feel unreal." Mu Ziqin said gently.
"Since that's the case, then Senior Brother will call you and me, don't always use Lonely, it seems to be angry. Although I haven't seen each other for many years, my appearance has changed, but I am still my brother's son. ”
Luo Ge took the initiative to not let him treat himself with the attitude of a monarch, and Mu Ziqin also agreed. Luo Ge actually knew about his affection, but now she couldn't speak. The only thing she could do now was for him to change the name he called her and the title of king before her.
After a long time, Mu Ziqin let go of Luo Ge, and then pulled her to sit down.
"Has today's news been released?"
"Let it out. Even the silk silk was handed out. ”
"Then do you think Xia Shu will open that silk silk?"
"Yes."
"Why are you so sure?"
"I wasn't sure at first, but I thought back to the rule I had set for the Thousand Machines Pavilion before, if one of the two sent back a message, the other had the right to choose to view the message. If you open it and find that the message is fake, then you can kill the person who reported the news, of course, it is also to ensure that the news reported to Qianji Pavilion every month is useful. However, when I first set up this mechanism, I didn't think it was very reasonable, and I proposed to let Su Ling cancel it. But from my conversation with Natsu, I deduced that this rule had not been lifted. ”
"Since you can be sure that he will open it, then he will definitely come to the palace in advance next month, and go to the palaces to find the edict of succession. But now, where are we going to find a succession edict for Xia Ji? ”
"Master."
"Master?"
Looking at Mu Ziqin's appearance, Luo Ge smiled and said confidently: "I actually found the edict of succession a long time ago, but I haven't opened it. Because at that time, I thought that the content of the edict was passed on to Su Ling. So when I received the edict, I brought it directly to Master. ”
"Then how can you be sure that the edict in Master's hand is what you want?"
Luo Ge recalled all the information when he got the edict, and said: "Looking back now, Su Ling's expression was not very happy when he got this edict, and the condition that I can be sure that the edict is true is that the cloth used in the edict is the royal exclusive use of Su Qianguo, and each edict will use a dark line to show a dragon pattern on the far left. Moreover, there were traces of Su Xuan's blood on that edict. ”
"How can you confirm that the bloodstain is Su Xuan's?"
"Because...... Su Xuan was killed by me. Although Luo Ge doesn't really want to admit it, this fact is true.
Mu Ziqin showed a surprised expression when he saw this, and then Luo Ge opened his mouth to solve his doubts. She said: "In the first year of my entry into the palace, I was responsible for curing Su Ling's illness, and at the same time, Su Ling also asked me for a pharmacy, and there was a medicine in the pharmacy that was an extremely inconspicuous chronic poison - oleander leaves. This oleander leaf is actually used as a cardiotonic, but more than a certain amount, it can kill people. On that day, Su Xuan died suddenly after taking the pill I dispensed. ”
"Then according to what you say, it means that Su Ling deliberately gave Su Xuan the pill that you configured to originally prolong life, which caused Su Xuan to be poisoned and died, and then got the edict of succession from him for you. But why didn't he destroy the edict? ”
"In the Su Qianguo, there is no edict of succession, so the succession will not be recognized. Therefore, Su Ling must have an edict, and there is a certificate to prove the authenticity of this edict, and this certifier is my father, Xia Shiren. So that edict is now kept. ”
"Then why can you keep the edict and bring it to Master?"
Because Su Ling said that he would keep the edict in case any of his subordinates were suspicious. But when I saw the blood stains on the edict, I guessed how suspicious it was. So I found someone to bring it to Master at that time. ”
"Didn't Su Ling get suspicious after that? Or has it ever been mentioned to you? ”
"Nope." Luo Ge shook his head, "Instead, I saw a new edict in his hand, and that edict said that he should inherit the throne. So, what he was thinking about now was to make the original edict disappear forever. In this way he will be able to keep his position as king forever. ”
"Then did he mention this edict to you later?"
Luo Ge shook his head and said, "From the time he succeeded to the throne until my death, he never mentioned it. So this also made the original edict put in the master's place. ”
After listening to what she said, Mu Ziqin fell into deep thought.
When the waiter knocked on the watch, Mu Ziqin spoke. At this time, Luo Ge had already asked people to make the bed, prepare Mu Ziqin's bath water, and then serve him to wash.
Mu Ziqin, who was soaking in the bathtub, said: "If you give the edict directly to the master, then the master must know the content of the edict, and the master will definitely prepare it for this edict in the past few years." Then I will find someone to bring the edict back tomorrow, and then I will hide it in the secret compartment of the queen mother's scripture pavilion, and when I need it, I will find someone to put it in a place where Xia Yu can find it. ”
"Okay."
"So, is Mu Ziyao's plan still going according to the previous arrangement?"
"Hmm. However, there is one thing, senior brother, you should pay attention to that once Mu Ziyao's line is activated, then all variables are uncontrollable, and you are very likely to be overthrown. ”
"I know this, but I'm more worried about whether these plans can fool Su Ling."
"Did you ask Mu Ziheng to follow Su Ling? After he left the territory of the Great Jin Kingdom before, he should have one more place to go. ”
"How do you know he's somewhere to go?"
"Because, Heli." Luo Ge stopped what he was doing, stood beside him, and said, "When he talked to me before, I guessed that he had something to do, but I don't know what he was doing specifically. ”
"He came to the Master." Mu Ziqin said Su Ling's purpose.
"Why did he come to Master?" Luo Ge became nervous, she was afraid that Su Ling would find Madame Yiyu and pose a threat to her.
"The secret guard came to report that the purpose of his coming to the master was to prove your death, because he had spent three months raising all the forces of the capital to find your body in the mountains behind Lingshan Temple. But your body went mysteriously missing. ”
"So, he thinks Master might know where my body is?" Luo Ge chatted and filled Mu Ziqin with some hot water.
"Yes." Although Mu Ziqin didn't want to say the latter words, he still had to say it, after all, it was about all of them. He took a deep breath and said, "Actually, Su Ling has always loved you. Merely...... His love for you has more or less some element of exploitation. So, isn't losing what you said to him a fatal blow? Therefore, if you want to find your body and confirm your life and death, it is the most important thing for him at this moment. ”
Luo Ge's mood was mixed by him, as the person he once loved, and the person who had hurt himself the most, although Luo Ge had no hatred at the moment, but there was no love. But after all, when I heard his feelings again, my heart was still a little sour.
Looking at her expression, Mu Ziqin raised his hand and pulled her to him, then stood up, looked down at her, and said, "You don't need to feel sorry for his feelings, after all, his hurt to you in the past was real." You don't have to mind, you're in my palace now. I will protect you in this world. ”
Luo Ge raised his blushing cheeks and looked at Mu Ziqin and nodded.
Seeing her like this, Mu Ziqin had a small thought of teasing Luo Ge in his heart, and he said: "You and I have skin to skin, why are you still blushing today?" ”
"You still say!" Luo Gejiao said angrily, "You suddenly stood up and exposed your chest, who can ...... Look at it directly......"
"Don't be shy, it's not like you haven't seen it. Not to mention that you still have a lot of opportunities to see in the future. I'm still shy, so what will I do in the future? ”
Luo Ge patted him on the chest and said, "It's not serious, you haven't wiped it yet, you're not afraid of the wind?" ”
"Afraid of what? You are a famous doctor in the rivers and lakes, even if I suffer from the cold, how can you not be cured? ”
"Then you can't be like this because I'm a doctor, right?"
The more Luo Ge spoke, the more unhappy he became, and when he turned around, he wanted to get him a handkerchief, but who knew that before she walked out, Mu Ziqin directly pulled her into the bathtub.
Faced with the water that suddenly came from all sides, Luo Ge was so frightened that he struggled in the water, holding Mu Ziqin's hand tightly. also made a splash because of her struggles.
The chamberlain, who was standing outside the door, listened to the voice and asked, "Your Majesty, are you in trouble?" ”
Mu Ziqin shouted in the house: "It's okay, you just wait and wait outside." ”
Mu Ziqin pulled her up from the water. Looking at the person in front of him who was like a chicken in soup, Mu Ziqin smiled and said: "Once upon a time, Xia Tianqing, who is good at water, was so afraid of water? ”
"It's not because you pulled me in all of a sudden." Luo Gejiao was disgusted, "Don't you know that this will cause people to panic and then suffocate?" ”
"Impossible." Mu Ziqin smiled and hugged her in his arms, "If that's the case, I'll give you a ferry." So what you're talking about, it's not possible. ”
