118 Coincidental encounters
Emperor Changsheng began to ask people to thoroughly investigate the fact that Concubine Wu Hui was stung by a bee.
Under normal circumstances, there would never be so many bees in the Imperial Garden!
Rumors began to circulate in the palace, and they unanimously pointed to Concubine Liu Shu, because her ancestors started by beekeeping, and when Emperor Changsheng was the prince, the bee density of the Liu family became a tribute, and for a while, many beekeepers relied on the relationship to find a way, in order to get involved with the Liu family.
If you talk about where to get bees, it must be the Liu family, Concubine Liu Shufei began to stay at home, and Empress Dowager Liu worshiped God and Buddha every day.
The Liu family even quietly disposed of all the bees they raised.
Although Concubine Wu Hui was stung by bees, she became everyone's joke, but this was limited to the harem and the noble family with news channels, and ordinary people didn't know about it, so all the bees of the Liu family were sold at a low price in a short time.
At this time, it is the time when the spring flowers are blooming, and with bees, you can collect flowers and make honey, and buyers call themselves a big bargain.
However, Emperor Changsheng's secret inquiry into the matter found that as early as the beginning of winter last year, the Liu family lost some bees for no reason, while Concubine Li's maiden family, the Li family, had a clansman pick up a lot of bees, but in the end, all of them died for no reason.
Not only that, but several members of the Li family quietly bought a lot of bees from other places in the capital, but for some reason, they all died.
According to the Li family, the bees they raised were dead, but there were more bees in the capital for no reason.
Not only that, but also found out a surprising thing, when the children of the Li family went to autumn hunting in the autumn festival last year, the two relatives who followed were all stung to death by wild bees.
Emperor Changsheng has always been well-read, and he has always believed in his private heart that poisonous substances such as snakes, bees, and scorpions rarely take the initiative to attack humans, and if someone is really attacked, it can only be unintentionally forced into their territory.
"The concubines feel that they are not trying to deal with the concubines at all this time, but Your Majesty! The Li family originally caught poisonous bees and harmed people, but His Majesty was destined to return, so the concubines were also blessed by misfortune. Concubine Wu Hui cried hoarsely, "The emperor is in the prime of life at this time, and I don't understand why those people with ulterior motives must force His Majesty to make a prince!" Now Your Majesty is in danger but does not know it! ”
The eldest prince was made the crown prince, and his maternal family, the Li family, caught poisonous bees and harmed Concubine Wu Hui, and stung the emperor, who is the key point?
It's scary to think about.
"The courtiers know that they have affected Your Majesty, and it is not a pity to be able to see you again." Concubine Wu Hui learned that Emperor Changsheng had been to the Qionghua Hall first, and then the Qingsi Palace, she became more and more uneasy in her heart, and she looked at death as home.
The Hou Xue family of Changxing has a crown princess, and she is married to the queen's mother, which is really interlocking!
If you don't know that the Li family has been poisoned, forget it, once you know it, the emperor can't help but think about it.

Wang Linzhi returned to the house and began to discuss the matter of the treat with Princess Qingyang.
"The weather is warm, and A-Niang will go over there to relax."
Princess Qingyang touched her head and said, "It's better for this palace to stay alone, if it passes, I'm afraid that those little ladies will be uncomfortable, and if you want to watch the song and dance, let them come and dance another day." ”
Wang Linzhi was not reluctant, "Then it's not bad for A-Niang to walk around our own garden." ”
Princess Qingyang laughed, "You can look at the layout yourself, you need silver taels, just go to Zhang Lixing to get it." ”
A-Niang is really generous to her.
Wang Linzhi happily agreed, "Then buy some flower pots to suit the occasion, the queen mother, why don't we send some more flowers over?" ”
Princess Qingyang nodded slightly, "Your aunt's favorite person is you, you have to go into the palace to accompany her more." ”
Wang Linzhi: "Then I will enter the palace on the sixth day of the first month." ”
On the fifth day of the new year, the flowers will be selected, the sixth day will send some to the queen first, the seventh day will invite the little ladies to watch the dance, and the eighth day of the first year should go back to Hemingxuan to attend class.
Princess Qingyang was also quite satisfied with this arrangement, "Remember to send a few pots to Mr. Yun when the time comes." ”
Wang Linzhi had this intention and responded together.
In fact, her main purpose is to send flowers to Queen Wang.
In the previous life, it is said that it was a palace person in the Qingning Palace who accidentally touched a pot of flowers, and when the flower pot was broken, a wooden man with nails was found inside, and she must prevent such a thing from happening again in this life!
But Princess Qingyang is pregnant again at the moment, Wang Linzhi naturally would not say such a thing to her at this time, but said: "The minister will go to choose flowers for the queen tomorrow." ”
At this time, it is the season of peony flowers, but several pots of precious varieties in the princess's mansion are all appreciated by the queen's mother, so naturally they can't be sent back, Wang Linzhi decided to go to the flowers, birds, live poultry and poultry market to see.
When I thought about it, I took the girls out, and saw Gu Yue standing under the big elm tree at the corner of the alley and smiling at her.
His gaze was warm and bright, shining brightly, and she did not dare to force her gaze for no reason.
I used to think that he was very good-looking, but he was not as dazzling as he is now.
Thinking of the "wrong" thing she had done, Wang Linzhi's cheeks were slightly hot.
Since the last incident in An Park, she has deliberately avoided him, and on the third day of March, she followed a group of little ladies closely, and said a word to Gu Yue privately.
He's going to pick the time!
Did you wait for her here on purpose?
While thinking about it, Gu Yue had already strode towards her.
His steps were brisk and calm, and his face was happy, obviously she had guessed it!
Wang Linzhi secretly regretted that she knew that she should have taken a sedan chair or ridden a horse, but now she could only stand still, pretending that nothing had happened, and smiled at him, "Thank you for helping me on March 3." ”
Gu Yue waved his hand: "Some trivial things, why worry about it." ”
No wonder he was able to recover a bunch of children of the same age at such a young age.
Wang Linzhi's smile suddenly became much more sincere, "Thank you for the matter of An Park." As if she remembered something, she opened her purse, took out the Pixiu that he had "bet" on her when he borrowed the silver before, and said with a serious face: "Our two families are relatives, and you have helped me a lot, I think your credibility is very high, so this thing does not need to be mortgaged." ”
As she spoke, she handed it to Gu Yue.
Gu Yue didn't answer: "The gentleman promised a thousand gold, and before I returned the silver I owed to the county lord, I asked the county lord to put it away." ”
Wang Linzhi looked vigilant: "Could you be, do you need my help with something?" ”
Since Gu Yue can win Lu Yangchun by throwing a pot, he can make a casual shot in An Park, and it will be more than two thousand taels of silver.
What's more, she and Princess Qingyang have been to the Gu family together, although Lord Gu's official position is not high, it can be seen from the furnishings and tastes of the family that the Gu family is a solid family, if Gu Yue really needs silver, just reach out to Mrs. Xiang directly, why ask her to borrow silver!
There must have been something going on that she didn't know about.
Gu Yue laughed all of a sudden, nodded and said, "There is really something I need your help with." ”
"Let's talk about it in another place." Wang Linzhi nodded, "Let's go to Fuyun Pavilion." ”
If Gu Yue really had something, Wang Linzhi decided to help him.
After all, he'd helped her so many times.
