Chapter 239: Worried

Turned his head, facing me, the smile was so kind, I would rather believe the truth of the matter, but unfortunately, I saw the melancholy in his eyes, shallow hidden in the bottom of his eyes, but inadvertently, floated up, although he did not speak, but at this moment, I understood, he must know something, or perhaps, hide something from me.

He asked, "Ru'er, are you out again?" Moreover, didn't even bring Miss Situ? ”

I said lightly: "Yes, I brought Xiaofuzi ......"

There was some provocation in my tone, trying to stir up the fire in his heart, but he turned his head away and said absentmindedly, "Oh? Little Fuzi? ”

I am even more convinced that there is something in his heart, and it is not a small matter, otherwise, even the little Fuzi who often provokes him to be angry will not be ignored?

He was silent for a long time, but said, "Otherwise, you, Xiaofuzi, and Situ go out for a walk?" Haven't you always liked to wander the rivers and lakes and be free? ”

I shook my head, sat on the stool, and said, "I feel that the life in this East Palace is also good now, with fine clothes and fine food, and the palace maids and eunuchs are waiting comfortably, why should I go to the so-called rivers and lakes to eat and sleep in the open?" Am I fine? ”

A wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he said, "Ru'er, there must be something that you have already found out?" ”

I nodded, and he said, "Ru'er, if I can't become the prince, I think you will be very happy, right?" ”

I didn't expect him to say this, and I said that I didn't look like a normal woman, and I said, "Why, no matter who you are, in my mind, you are just Qi Ruilin......"

He laughed and said, "Even if this king has nothing, as long as he has Ru'er, this life." That's enough......"

He wrapped his arms around my waist and took me into his arms, I felt the warmth of his arms, my palms on his chest, I felt his skin like a velvet wrapped in iron, giving a stable and safe touch, at this moment, I felt that our hearts were so close. It's as if they've melted together......

After a long time, he let go of me and said, "Ru'er, you may not know about the current court situation, my father's illness has not healed, since I came back. I haven't seen my father alone, and when I went to court, my father was in a bad spirit, and he dispersed after a few words, I suspect ......"

I said, "Do you suspect that my father is really very sick?" "I didn't ask him about his doubts. Because I know that since he doesn't want to say it, it means that the matter has not been confirmed by him. It's nothing more than speculation, before it is confirmed. He has always been the emperor's son, and his father is in trouble. He's still going to help him.

Qi Ruilin said: "Yes. Whenever I wanted to visit my father, the queen mother always got in the way. On the grounds that my father was sick, it seems that my father is really sick......"

I can't help but think, Mu Yunji knew that this prince was her own biological son, but for more than ten years, she didn't say a word, and even let him suffer in the cold palace, and after a lot of hardships to become the prince, now, she doesn't know that the prince already knows the truth, and hinders the prince from approaching the emperor, does she think that this kind of obstruction can really prevent the truth from being revealed?

Only one day later, Qi Ruilin was recruited into the palace, and he came back to the palace late at night, his brows furrowed even tighter, and said: "No matter what I want to say to my father, the queen mother is by my side, so that I can't say anything, and besides, there are many new faces of the palace maids and eunuchs around my father, these palace maids and eunuchs have never been seen by the king before, until finally, when I was about to leave, my father handed me a note written on a thin silk......

He handed me the note, and there were only eight words written on it: On the night of the full moon, slay the demon Qin King. The font on it is strong and powerful, and it is indeed the emperor's font, I looked at this note, and said, "Father and the emperor don't seem to be sick, a patient can't write such words, you see, this stroke is extremely powerful, like a knife and axe, just imagine a patient, how can there be such a wrist strength?" And he took advantage of the time when the queen mother was not paying attention, handed you this note, it seems, he seems to trust you very much, and under the supervision of so many palace maids and eunuchs, this eyesight, is not a sick patient can do, in my opinion, it is not so much that the father and the emperor passively laid out all this, it is better to say that he has already laid out all this, the power of the mother's family is the object he has long wanted to eradicate, perhaps, he already knows, they will do it on the night of the full moon, so, I wrote this note to you, maybe, In the government, you are controlled everywhere, which is the emperor's suspicious plan,

Thinking that they had won a big victory, they relaxed their guards and took them in one fell swoop......

I pondered for a long time, but said: "Prince, have you ever thought that maybe it will be another situation: the father already knows the truth of the matter and knows that you are not his son, so he clamps you everywhere in the court, and then, pretending not to know, pushes the power to restrain you to the queen's side, and then, in the name of King Qin, does it on the night of the full moon?" And the queen mother is the one who really helps you, and she does everything possible to prevent you from meeting with your father, just to prevent you from taking advantage of him? ”

This is the first time I have brought up his life, his face is cloudy, but suddenly, he made up his mind, and said: "Ru'er, no matter what, one day as a father, a lifetime as a father, he is in trouble, this king has to save no matter what, not to mention, this king doesn't believe it, he really already knows......"

I asked him, "You said that there were countless new-faced palace maids and eunuchs around my father, but did you find that they had martial arts?" ”

Qi Ruilin said: "According to this king, these palace maids and eunuchs seem to have appeared overnight, some of them seem to be very old, and some of them are extremely young, this king really doesn't understand, where have I never been to the inner courtyard of the palace?" Why did so many new-faced palace maids and eunuchs appear all at once? He muttered, "As for whether there are martial arts or not, this king doesn't know, but I feel that their palms are thick, not like the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace......"

I asked, "So, what about their behavior?" ”

Qi Ruilin said: "The behavior is quite standardized, as if the old man who has been in the palace for a long time, there is nothing wrong, this is what makes me puzzled, only the palace maids and eunuchs who have stayed in the palace for a long time can have such a demeanor, but in this palace, where has the king not been, but how come he has never found such a group of people?" ”

I asked, "So, what is the attitude of the queen mother towards this group of people?" ”

Qi Ruilin said: "The queen mother is calm, but she is very unfamiliar......"

I said: "So, these people are not the mother's subordinates, could it be that the father arranged this group of people to protect himself in order to uproot the power of the mother's family?" ”

Qi Ruilin nodded and said, "Now, that's the only way to see it." ”

I nodded and said, "It seems that my father really set up a game to lead people to be fooled, if someone takes action while he is sick, then he will fall into the trap, and it is also possible that he finds out that someone is going to attack on the night of the full moon of August 15, so I want you to bring someone to help him on the night of the full moon......"

I didn't mention another situation, because, even I can't be sure if this father and emperor, who is deep in the inner palace and is high, really knows Qi Ruilin's life experience, since it has not been confirmed, then, solve this trouble in front of you, and only then can you continue to move on to the next step, maybe, in this life, no one will know this secret, why not bury this secret?

Qi Ruilin nodded and said, "When the time comes, I'm afraid that I will trouble Xiaofuzi and Daddy......"

I sighed: "The leader of Qingfeng Gate Ye is dead, and the masters who help you are only Qingluan, and all of them are under surveillance, it seems that only a few of us can enter the palace, but if it is really my father who is being coerced, how can the other party not be prepared?" If a large-scale mutiny is triggered, things will become very serious. ”

Qi Ruilin said: "It doesn't matter, the guards guarding the palace are absolutely impossible to rebel, and it seems that except for a few of us, no one knows what is happening in the palace, and my father doesn't want to make too much trouble, when the time comes, as long as I cooperate with my father, there will be nothing......

I always feel that things are not so simple, with the huge power of my mother's family that has been intertwined for a hundred years, since it has been done, how can it not be done thoroughly? Although his father may be pretending to be sick, but in the end, he may be very likely to have been coerced by the fake palace maids and eunuchs around him, could it really be that he can rescue his father with Xiaofuzi and Situ?

I suddenly asked him, "What would you do if the queen mother really turned against her father that night?" ”

His face turned white, and he was silent for a long time, but he didn't say anything more......

I don't ask him anymore, I just think, is it true that everything in the palace is as it seems on the surface, my father has been placed under house arrest, and the person who put him under house arrest is the queen? And Qi Ruilin really wants to turn against the queen?
