Chapter 276: An Unexpected Discovery
The next day, it was still dark.
Shangguan Jiyue, the first female general who had been recuperating for many days due to illness, appeared in women's clothes on the morning court and thanked the emperor. Huangfu Hao Longyan is happy, and after the early dynasty, she was left in the palace to discuss things. Of course, at the same time, the emperor also left King Chen.
The people who can have a place above the Golden Palace have all been up and down in officialdom for many years, and all of them are human spirits. There is love between Shangguan Jiyue and King Chen, and everyone knows it. The emperor's move could not be clearer, it seems that there will be a great joy in this Jian'an city soon.
In the Imperial Study.
Huang Fu Hao sat in front of the desk in a dragon robe, looking at Huang Fu Chen and Shangguan Jiyue sitting below with gentle eyes and a smile on his face. Gonggong Jiang, who was standing aside and waiting, also looked at the two with a smile.
Huang Fuchen's face was calm, and his eyes stayed on the woman in plain clothes sitting opposite him. But Shangguan Jiyue always had a pale face, as if she didn't care about everything.
"I asked you to come today ......"
Before Huang Fuhao finished speaking, Shangguan Jiyue stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Qi Yu is guilty of bullying the king, please punish the emperor!" ”
Shangguan Jiyue's sudden move made several people present slightly stunned, and then they all looked at her.
"Oh?" Huang Fuhao's tone was unhurried, "Then General Qi said, how did you have the crime of bullying the king?" ”
"Yue'er! Is the sin of deceit confessed? Don't be willful! Huang Fuchen immediately stood up and stopped him.
Shangguan Jiyue was stunned, and her beautiful little face seemed to have precipitated the courage to break the cauldron at this time: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Chen, for your concern!" But Qi Yu did have the crime of bullying the monarch in front of him, and he didn't dare to hide it anymore. ”
"Yue'er!"
Huang Fuchen wanted to say something, but Huang Fuhao, who was sitting in front of the desk, had already said in a deep voice: "Chen'er, why are you so nervous?" Let General Qi finish his words! ”
"Father, they are all children......"
"Your Majesty!" Shangguan Jiyue quickly interrupted Huang Fuchen's words, "Qi Yu is guilty of bullying the monarch three times!" First, Qi Yu is not the real name of the criminal minister, the real name of the criminal minister is Shangguan Jiyue, but the daughter of Shangguan Peize, the former Southern Chi Protector of the Kingdom! In order to avenge the blood and hatred of the family, the talented woman disguised herself as a man, changed her name and surname to join Beicang.
Second, Ma Ye of Liuguo County is not a guest in the prince's mansion, but Shangguan Jiyang, the brother of the criminal minister. Third, the criminal minister did not return to Beijing with King Chen this time, and he did not fall ill and recuperate in the mansion. Instead, he went to Jiangzhong to visit his fourth brother, Shangguan Jiyun.
The above sentences are true, and they have nothing to do with King Chen, and they have nothing to do with others. Qi Yu is willing to bear all the blame, and ask the emperor to investigate! ”
Hearing this, Huang Fuhao stared at Shangguan Jiyue expressionlessly for a long time before he said lightly: "General Qi is finished?" ”
"That's it! Qi Yu is already guilty, and he also asked the emperor to remove Qi Yu from the post of general, enter the prison or behead him on the spot! ”
Hearing this, Huangfu Chen was shocked, and then knelt on the ground: "Father! The son has something to say......"
Huang Fuhao waved his hand to stop Huang Fuchen's words, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Shangguan Jiyue again, and his voice was low and majestic: "According to what General Qi said, isn't that also mediocre and incompetent, and committed the crime of connivance?!" ”
——
When Shangguan Jiyue came out of the imperial study, her mood was extremely complicated. It turned out that Huang Fuhao knew everything clearly from beginning to end, but he kept quiet.
It turned out that he already knew the identity of the second brother when he married the second brother and Chu Tianyun that day. Presumably, he and Chu Zijie had a secret conversation for so long in the imperial study that day, and what he said was related to her and the housekeeper.
It turns out that this is the emperor's scheming, unfathomable. And that's not all.
However, Huang Fuhao did not mention the marriage, which made her feel relieved. Although she had already guessed some things, such as her return to Beijing this time, it was impossible for her to hide it. However, it still surprised her.
Shangguan Jiyue walked aimlessly along the path in the palace, and her emotions were difficult to calm down for a long time.
Huangfu Chen did not come out with her, and he was left in the imperial study.
That's fine. She thought to herself, if she didn't meet, at least her heart wouldn't hurt so much.
I don't know how long she walked, but when she came back to her senses, she had already walked into the depths of the Imperial Garden. Few people came here, she looked at the gravel path at her feet, smiled helplessly, and sat down on a large flat rock next to a rockery.
Looking at this garden full of pearls and greenery, red and willow green, she was so excited that she couldn't lift up the slightest spirit.
Simply, leaning back, putting his hands behind his head, he leaned on the stone with a big grin. She was already slender, and as soon as she lay down like this, the surrounding trees and flowers immediately blocked her tightly.
She closed her eyes and held her breath, fantasizing that she could become a mountain, a rock, or a tree. No heart, no sense, no pain.
At that moment, two slight footsteps hurried forward, one after the other, and came to a halt less than ten paces away from her.
"Hao'er, is there anything important that you are so anxious to see me?"
A female voice came into Shangguan Jiyue's ears, and she was stunned: It's the Queen of the Night!
What is she doing here? Who is Hao'er?
"Auntie!"
As soon as the man spoke, Shangguan Jiyue suddenly opened his eyes. This voice is very familiar to her, it is actually Liuxia!
Liuxia actually called the Night Queen her aunt! And this voice is surprisingly calm and restrained compared to Liuxia's usual laziness.
At this time, I heard the Night Queen ask, "Hao'er, why did you enter the palace today?" What the hell is going on? ”
"I came with Your Highness. Auntie, I don't have much time, so you can listen to me first. This matter concerns His Highness, and I have to come to see my aunt. "Liuxia answered.
"What's wrong with Chen'er?!" The Night Queen's voice sounded a hint of urgency, not like a pretend.
"Auntie, don't worry about it first, Your Highness, he's fine." Liu Xia first appeased the Night Queen, paused, and said, "Presumably you have heard about the matter of Miss Shangguan and His Royal Highness." If Miss Shangguan really abandons His Highness, I'm afraid that His Highness will not be able to stand it. And I guess that Miss Shangguan suddenly made such a decision to His Royal Highness, probably because she knew that Concubine Yu Niangniang was Princess Pingluo. Otherwise, what else could make her so ruthless to His Highness? ”
"Impossible!" The Night Queen almost immediately denied Liuxia's words, "Chen'er herself doesn't know, where will General Qi know?" When Concubine Yu was dying, she only told the palace about it, and I didn't even tell my father, I only told my eldest brother. There is no way there is a fourth person in this world who knows about this besides the three of us! ”
"However, what if it was the wind that was pure? He is the person that Princess Pingluo likes! ”
The Night Queen was visibly surprised: "What did you say?" Didn't Feng Jingzhi die more than twenty years ago? ”
Liu Xia sighed: "Feng Jingzhi is not dead at all!" And he is also a descendant of the Feng family. He captured the Shangguan girl in the Pingyang Ancient Cloth Barrier, and wanted to use her blood to relieve the silkworm smoke Gu on his body. His Royal Highness wasted all his strength to save the Shangguan girl from the Nanchi Emperor's Mausoleum. ”
The Night Queen's voice became obviously solemn: "Hao'er, my aunt knows that you have always been smart and calm, and you never say anything you are not sure about. But where did you hear about it? ”
