Chapter 418: The Emperor Discovers

The six kings looked at him and wanted him to call him daddy, but Tang Sheng didn't seem to hear it.

"It's time for me to go back to sleep, I have to be on duty tonight." After Tang Sheng finished speaking, he dragged Zhou Qing away.

As soon as he left the door, Tang Sheng let go of his hand, and Zhou Qing asked, "What are you dragging me for?" ”

"It's time to go home."

"When you go home, you go back to the house, what are you dragging me for?" Zhou Qing still didn't understand why he was dragging himself.

This question Tang Sheng also wanted to ask himself: Why did I drag him out?

After thinking about it for a while, he didn't understand it, so he walked straight from the same way.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing immediately followed.

After they left, Liu Lao looked at the lost appearance of the six kings and comforted him.

"The prince is so old now, he must be embarrassed, and the minister went to find two trustworthy people to serve the six kings to bathe."

The six kings nodded, they really needed to clean up now.

Tang Sheng and Zhou Qing returned to the mansion, and as soon as they entered the door, the housekeeper greeted them.

"Young Master, you can be regarded as back."

Seeing that the housekeeper was so flustered, Zhou Qing asked, "What happened?" ”

"Something happened in the palace."

Tang Sheng, who was about to leave, stopped when he heard the housekeeper's words.

Zhou Qing glanced at him, and then asked the housekeeper.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that something very precious fell from the emperor's palace last night."

"What?" Zhou Qing then asked.

"I don't know this, the emperor just said that he dropped something, let the young master go into the palace."

Zhou Qing frowned, nodded to the housekeeper, and after the housekeeper retreated, he looked at Tang Sheng.

"The emperor doesn't want me to investigate, right?"

"Congratulations." Tang Sheng smiled and said congratulations and left.

Zhou Qing glanced at him and went back to his courtyard, changed into court clothes and shoes and entered the palace.

In the imperial study, the emperor reviewed the folds with a calm face, and the father-in-law in the hall didn't even dare to breathe.

After a while, Zhou Qing stood at the door of the imperial study, and the father-in-law who was waiting outside the door immediately pushed open the door when he saw Lord Zhou coming.

"Your Majesty, Lord Zhou is here."

The emperor raised his head and looked at Zhou Qing, put down the fold in his hand, and instructed his father-in-law in the hall.

"Stand down, all of you."

The father-in-law immediately retreated, and the last one to go out closed the door, and soon Zhou Qing and the emperor were left in the main hall.

"Your Majesty." Zhou Qing called.

"Come to me." The emperor said.

Zhou Qing frowned slightly, but quickly dispersed, raised his steps and walked towards the emperor.

"What did the emperor call his ministers to order?"

"An important prisoner was lost in prison last night, and the matter is up to you to investigate."

Hearing this, Zhou Qing looked surprised and asked, "Who is so bold that he dares to break into the palace at night and sneak into the prison?" This person is too bold to act! ”

"Indeed, if I catch this person, I will definitely dismantle eight pieces and steal his entire family." The emperor gritted his teeth and said hatefully.

Zhou Qing felt cold when he heard this, and then pretended to ask calmly: "It's just that there are no clues here, and the minister doesn't know how to investigate." ”

The emperor glanced at him, didn't find anything suspicious, and then directly named Zhou Qing.

"I heard that yesterday you arranged an errand for a friend of yours in the palace."

As soon as Zhou Qing heard this, he immediately took two steps back and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, that friend of the minister will definitely not be the one who robbed the prison last night, because the minister went out of the palace with him today, and the minister also went to his grandfather's house with him, and then returned to the house together, he never left during this period, how could it be him?"

The emperor frowned, but still didn't believe it.

"In that case, it is estimated that I have misunderstood, in short, this matter is handed over to you, the person who was robbed has no feet, it is easy to identify, and he is forty-five years old."

After hearing this, Zhou Qing immediately responded.

"The emperor can rest assured, the ministers will definitely find out this person as soon as possible."

"I am optimistic about you, after this matter is done, I will give you a promotion and promotion, but you don't have pressure, I don't blame you if you can't do it, after all, Xiang'er is pregnant, you have to accompany her." The emperor said this partly for his daughter.

Zhou Qing nodded with a smile, and then hurriedly thanked: "The minister thanked the emperor first." ”

"Well, let's do it!" The emperor smiled and nodded.

After Zhou Qing left the imperial study, he took a deep breath, and then went directly to ask the guards in the palace who were on duty last night.

The father-in-law obeyed the emperor's orders, followed Lord Zhou, and saw that Lord Zhou was really investigating the case, so he smiled and went back to report to the emperor.

After listening to his father-in-law's report, the emperor stroked his beard.

"You go and ask the guards who were on duty last night, and let them tell me where the person named Tang Cheng went and what he did last night."

"Back to the emperor, this minion has already asked, and the minions have also checked one by one, and this Tang Cheng has no suspicion." The father-in-law immediately replied to the emperor's words.

The emperor frowned after hearing this, but he still didn't believe that this person was innocent.

"Send someone to keep an eye on the person named Tang Cheng, and report to me every move."

The father-in-law nodded, turned around and went to do what the emperor ordered.

Zhou Qing questioned the guards who patrolled the palace last night, and then ruled out Tang Cheng's suspicion.

Because of this, he frowned.

"How did this guy do that?" He thought to himself that he decided to ask him when he returned.

Since he couldn't find any clues in the palace, he could only go outside the palace.

As for the people who blocked the people entering and leaving the city, I believe that the emperor had already ordered them to go down, and he only needed to search people out of the city.

Back in the house, Zhou Qing went directly to Tang Sheng's courtyard and shouted when he entered.

"Tang City..."

Tang Sheng in the house slept for less than an hour, and when he heard Zhou Qing's scream, he opened his eyes.

When Zhou Qing was about to push the door, he opened the door and looked at Zhou Qing in front of him with a calm face.

"Still not letting people sleep?"

"You can still sleep, you were stolen from the palace on the first night of your duty, can you still sleep?" Zhou Qing squeezed his eyebrows as he spoke.

Tang Sheng looked at him like this, the corners of his lips rose, smiled, and then said in a loud voice, expressing his dissatisfaction with being woken up: "It's not what I stole again, why can't I sleep, if you don't have anything else, don't disturb me to sleep, I have to be on duty tonight, I regret coming to mix with you, and I thought you would get me an official, who knows if it's such a thankless broken guard." ”

Zhou Qing's round eyes widened, and he also amplified his voice.

"How comfortable the chief of the guard is, you actually say it's thankless, I... Your conscience has been eaten by dogs, right? If it weren't for the fact that you saved my life in the first place, I wouldn't have made friends with people like you, and caused trouble for me as soon as I came, I don't know if I owe you in my last life. ”

When Zhou Yiran came back, she heard the sound of the two arguing from a distance, and she quickened her pace.

When I walked into the courtyard gate, I saw that the two of them were standing at the door arguing, and they were about to get started, so they immediately stepped forward.

"What are you arguing about?"

The two ignored her and fought directly.

Seeing this, the man who was watching from the shadows frowned and went back to report it.

As soon as this person left, Tang Sheng, who had originally let Zhou Qing, directly raise his hand and give Zhou Qing a fist in the face...... It's not light.

Zhou Qing saw that he was really moving, and greeted him unceremoniously.

Zhou Yiran, who was watching from the side, saw that she couldn't persuade them, so she turned around and left directly.

After a while, she came over with the eldest princess.

The eldest princess couldn't help laughing when she saw that there were colors on their faces, but she was worried that something would happen to them, so she clutched her stomach and cried out in pain.

"Ahh

Seeing this, Zhou Yiran immediately followed the acting, and helped the eldest princess to ask nervously.

"Are you alright?"

As soon as Zhou Qing heard his daughter-in-law shouting that her stomach hurt, she immediately stopped her hand, turned around and picked up her daughter-in-law and told the maid while walking.

"Hurry up and get a doctor."

The maid nodded......

Zhou Yiran looked at the nervous Zhou Qing and laughed, but the smile on her face disappeared when she turned her head.

"Why are you two fighting? The two of them are also sixty years old together, don't you feel ashamed? ”

Tang Sheng smiled lightly, and when he found that the person who was staring was gone, he leaned close to her ear and whispered.

"Someone is staring at us, and Zhou Qing and I are acting for others to see."

"Is this acting?" She poked her finger at the swollen spot on his face.

"Hey, daughter-in-law, tap it." Tang Sheng shouted that it hurt, but his appearance didn't seem to hurt at all.

She glanced at Tang Sheng and said, "I'll go boil two eggs for you to knead." ”

"By the way, make me a bowl of noodles and beat two eggs." Tang Sheng added.

She nodded, and off she went.

Zhou Qing's side, after the eldest princess was carried back to the room by him, she looked at his nervous appearance and couldn't bear it, so she told him.

"I'm fine, I just watched you fight with Tang Cheng just now, pretending."

As soon as Zhou Qing heard this, he relaxed and then went over and poured himself a glass of water.

After drinking a glass of water, he put down the teacup and walked over to sit on the edge of the bed and grabbed Xiang'er's hand.

"Don't scare me like this in the future, my heart is jumping to my throat."

"Then you also promised me that I would not fight in the future, look at your face, how can you go to the morning court tomorrow?"

He nodded, admitting his mistake.

"I promise you, I'll never fight that bastard again, if I fight, you'll have a boy in this baby."

Hearing this, the eldest princess couldn't help but laugh.

"Everyone is serious, but Xiaoran said that this baby is a man."

The corners of Zhou Qing's mouth trembled twice, and he muttered: "It's over, my daughter is gone." ”

Seeing that he wanted to cry, the eldest princess glanced at him.

"How good your son is, your Zhou family will have a queen."

"I don't care if I have a Zhou family or not, I just want a cute and caring girl, just like you."

The eldest princess shook her head, feeling that he was really naïve, and did not continue the topic with him.

"What did my father lose last night?"

"Lost people." After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he felt that this was a little inappropriate, and immediately changed his words, "There was a person lost in the prison, and the emperor asked me to find this person, and also said that this matter will be done well, and I will be promoted." ”gfbmmjD6vtLSaDjNAMr7x+cAJfrxmldLH/ZzyO8z5GisJlPbdeDIGJfyq9N6ALntkPrNLIFSkmT6M4KHQJrA==

Looking at Zhou Qing's very fake expression, she despised it, because Zhou Qing never cared about official positions, so he would not be very happy because of his promotion.
