"Rubbish!"

The emperor was furious and smashed the cup on one side at Hu Yue. Hu Yue didn't dare to dodge, the cup slammed heavily on his forehead, accompanied by a sound of shattering and splashing porcelain, Hu Yue snorted and was blinded by blood in front of his eyes.

Xiao Ping was so frightened that his breath stagnated, and he knelt on the ground with all the palace people, the emperor's eyes were cold, and he had never been so angry.

Hu Yue was also unlucky, his body was hung at noon this morning, and he was assassinated in Xiahui Hall at night, and he also let the assassin escape. It seems that his official position as the commander of the guards is not guaranteed.

The Qianqing Palace was brightly lit, and Ruan Yuheng and Lu Yun were summoned into the palace in the middle of the night. Lu Yun was worried, he thought that Shoujing without a physical body was easy to deal with, but he found that he underestimated his mana, not only did he derelict his duty and let him escape, but this soul dared to come back today to seek revenge.

The emperor stared at Lu Yun coldly and reprimanded, "Didn't you tell me that the soul can't run far without a physical body? It's been a few days now, and you guys still can't catch him? ”

Lu Yun's eyes were full of shame, and he bowed down and said: "Back to the emperor, it is the minister's dereliction of duty, and the minister is willing to accept the punishment!" ”

"Receive the punishment or receive the reward, I will give you another day, and it will not be too late to decide!" The emperor's expression was grim: "Tomorrow, you must settle this matter!" ”

"No!" Lu Yun hunched his waist and replied without confidence.

Ruan Yuheng stole a glance at the depressed Lu Yun, and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister has already asked Hu Yue about the assassination tonight, and the minister thinks that the assassin has nothing to do with the soul!" There must be someone in this harem who has a bad heart towards Concubine Yun! He continued: "The Imperial Doctor has already been to the Xiahui Palace, and the smoke in Concubine Yun's mother is an ordinary ecstasy incense, and she will wake up in a few hours, so the emperor doesn't have to worry!" Ruan Yuheng knew that the source of the emperor's anger was Luo Qingyun, so he diverted the topic very blindly.

The emperor turned his eyes to him without any emotion: "Hmph, there are assassins in my harem now, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

"Your Majesty, the assassin didn't expect you to send guards to protect Niangniang secretly, so he acted rashly, and now he is startling the snake, and he must not dare to make any more moves for a while. Besides, there are some things that the minister doesn't know whether to say or not! ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Ruan Yuheng's eyes sank, and he suppressed his voice: "The minister thinks that the assassin may be from the Zhaoren Palace!" ”

The emperor paused, and slowly hooked his lips: "You and I thought of one thing." ”

Ruan Yuheng continued: "Therefore, the minister thinks that there is no point in pursuing the assassin's matter now. The top priority at the moment is to weaken the Gu family's power. In the DPRK, General Han has already established his prestige in the army because of the First Battle of Annan, and Gu Qinghong has not yet noticed it! The commander of the guards in the capital is Gu Qinghong's nephew Gu Yuanning, and it's time to change this position to our people! ”

"Do you have a solution?"

"The minister has found out that Gu Yuanning privately opened three gambling houses in Beijing and accepted bribes, and the official position of Lingzhou magistrate was bought in his hands, and now the time has come, the minister is sure!"

The emperor frowned slightly: "I have long wanted to move Gu Yuanning, but if I use him, Gu Qinghong will definitely notice it, this change of the commander of the guard army is just a beginning, since we want to start weakening the Gu family, then in the harem, there is also a need for someone to compete with the queen mother!" ”

"What does the emperor mean is to seal the queen?" Ruan Yuheng frowned in disbelief. Lu Yun also raised his eyes in astonishment.

"That's right! With the master of the six palaces, the Queen Mother naturally has no ability to cover the sky with one hand! ”

Ruan Yuheng and Lu Yun looked at each other, and the emperor saw their thoughts and asked, "What do you want to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

Ruan Yuheng pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you have always been reluctant to make a queen, isn't it just for Liu Yinyue?" ”

Lu Yun admired Ruan Yuheng's straightforward temperament incomparably, and he didn't dare to ask for a long time, but he blurted out without hesitation. Lu Yun cautiously glanced at the emperor's expression, in the past, whenever Liu Yinyue's name was mentioned, the emperor was extremely sensitive, and this was something that almost everyone tacitly dared not mention for three years.

When the words fell, the emperor lowered his eyes silently, and after a long time, he raised his head and said calmly: "I have my own plans!" ”

Ruan Yuheng was surprised and continued to ask: "Then the queen's candidate must be Concubine Yun's mother?" He paused: "Concubine Yun is cowardly, even if she is crowned as the queen, she must be much worse than the queen mother's momentum, can she suppress the six palaces." ”

The emperor smiled coldly: "She was cowardly before because she was just a concubine in Luofu all these years, and she didn't dare to do anything after being bullied. But Luo Qingyun himself is not a coward! Don't forget, when we first met her, she was alone in the ruined temple of Yanshan, and now that I think about it, maybe she saw a ghost at that time, but in order to help a female ghost, she still has affection and righteousness. ”

Ruan Yuheng thought for a while, and nodded sneeringly: "What the emperor said is very true, but the minister thinks that Concubine Yun has been in the palace for a short time, and Luo Haoxuan's official position is only four grades, if she is named queen now, I am afraid that some people in the court will be dissatisfied." The emperor might as well raise the status of the Luo family. ”

"Well, the matter of the seal and Gu Yuanning, these days are ready to act together!"

"No!"

The emperor's eyes were black, and he suddenly hooked his lips and smiled: "I have been dormant for three years, and I have endured for seventeen years, and I am finally going to break off with the Gu family!" He turned his eyes to look at Lu Yun: "That soul will go to Luo Qingyun and protect her!" ”

"No!"

Leaving the palace, the sky was already dawning. Lu Yun turned over and didn't dare to delay, Ruan Yuheng caught up with his belly and asked, "What are you going to do now?" ”

Lu Yun was stopped by him and reprimanded impatiently: "What can I do?" Go back to the house to get the magic weapon, I only have time for a day today, how can I have time to talk nonsense with you! ”

Ruan Yuheng snorted coldly: "What's the use of you bringing all the magic weapons and not finding him?" The emperor gives you a day, you have to find a way to lure him out, then the soul will be revenged, it is very likely that he will find Luo Qingyun for revenge, and it is also possible that the next target is me and you! He reined the horse and said coldly: "Let's set up a bureau to lure him to appear, and the location is in the Xiahui Palace!" Luo Qingyun is the best bait! ”

"Bait?" Lu Yun frowned: "If the emperor knows that you are using Luo Qingyun as bait, do you think he will be angry with you like today?" ”

"Hmph, only those who are determined to have no skills can't do things, and those who seek great things must not have the kindness of a woman! I'm not going to send her to death, we're both in the same dangerous situation! ”

Last night, the emperor ordered the news of the assassination of Xiahui Palace. After last night's temptation, the Queen Mother's conjecture was further confirmed, and all the strange things that happened to Luo Qingyun looked unusual.

Sun Yingxue was recently forced by Concubine Ying to copy Buddhist scriptures, and she said that she was suffering, not only restricting her freedom to eat at lunch. If Luo Qingyun hadn't shown off at the Wanshou Palace Banquet, she wouldn't have been angry and bullied Sun Yingxue, a poor little nobleman.
