Chapter 044: Serial Chess Game

readx;? Hearing this, Lu Yingquan smiled, she didn't expect Shen Che to support her so much. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But wanting what Yun Yao said before, she immediately spoke: "This bureau is not over yet, please Your Highness continue to cooperate with the concubine, no matter what the concubine does, Your Highness must follow the concubine." ”

"What else do you have to arrange?" asked Shen Che puzzled.

"Please call Yun Yao over, there are some things that she may explain more clearly than the concubine. Lu Yingquan thought for a while and said.

Shen Che nodded, got up and walked outside, just in time to see Yun Yao coming in with a bowl of tonics, so he let Yun Yao enter the inner hall.

Yun Yao waited for Lu Yingquan to drink the tonic to make her body more comfortable, and then took a handkerchief and wiped the medicine stains on Yingquan's mouth, before putting down the bowl and saluting Shen Che.

"Do you have any other plans?" Shen Che didn't hesitate and asked directly.

He still remembered what Gu Qingming said in his heart, and believed in Yun Yao's ability. And judging from what has happened in the recent period, Yun Yao really deserves Gu Qingming's praise.

Lu Yingquan's foundation in Yiwang Palace is still shallow, and so many things have happened one after another recently, if it weren't for Yun Yao helping by the side, even with his protection, Lu Yingquan might not be safe and sound.

The slave suspected that in addition to Yingquan and Ning Lan in the palace of King Yi, there were other people in the palace who were sent by the Empress Dowager Qin. Yun Yao opened her mouth and said, "So the slave wants to set up a bureau and draw out this detail." ”

"Others?" Shen Che was puzzled, "Do you know that except for Yingquan in this Yiwang Palace, everyone else was brought back by this king himself, and there is no problem with their identity and background, and they have been in Yiwang Palace for a long time, and no one has ever sent a little news to Ning Palace." ”

"Yes. But this can only prove that the other party is hiding deeply, but it cannot prove that there is no other detail. Yun Yao said, "In fact, the slave's speculation has a certain basis, otherwise the slave and maid will not let the beloved person do the trick." ”

"What is the basis for talking about it?" Shen Che listened to Yun Yao's words, but became a little interested.

After all, Shen Che is also a very cautious person, and those people in his harem were indeed brought back by himself, and he sent someone to check it, and there was nothing suspicious. But even so, he didn't reveal his truest self in front of any of them. He was still the same stunned look, addicted to wine.

After observing for such a long time, he didn't find anyone wrong, but Yun Yao said that she had a basis, which was enough to make people curious.

The basis is a letter from the Empress Dowager Qin not long ago. Yun Yao closed her eyes, recalled the contents of the letter, and then said, "Although the letter has been burned, both the slave and the beloved have read the letter and feel that there is a problem. ”

Shen Che looked at Yun Yao with a willing expression, waiting for her to bring out the so-called evidence.

Yun Yao took a deep breath, and then spoke: "There are two flaws in the letter. First, the Queen Mother no longer asked Ning Lan to investigate the whereabouts of the slaves and maids, and second, the Queen Mother was eager to let Yingquan go to the mausoleum in the barren mountain to see what was going on. ”

Listening to Yun Yao's words, Shen Che couldn't help frowning: "What's wrong with this?"

"Your Highness doesn't know, every time Empress Dowager Qin sends a letter, the first thing she does is to ask Ning Lan to investigate whether Yun Yao is in Yiwang Palace, and tell Ning Lan to beware of Yun Yao secretly helping me. To Empress Dowager Qin, Yun Yao is the one who knows her plan and the one who can use it to threaten me, so once I know that Yun Yao is not dead and meets with Yun Yao, it is possible to sabotage her plan. But this time, she didn't say a word about Yun Yao, there were only two possibilities. Lu Yingquan was the first to speak.

She and the Yun Yao sisters have been in touch for a long time, and the things that Yun Yao can think of, although she can't think of them so thoroughly, she can also understand some of them.

"Two possibilities...... One is to be sure that Yun Yao is dead and poses no threat to her, and the second is to be sure that Yun Yao is still alive and that someone has proved this conjecture for her. Shen Che was also smart, and directly said the two possibilities.

As soon as he said this, he understood what Yun Yao meant. If the Queen Mother hadn't seen Yun Yao's body, she wouldn't have believed that Yun Yao was dead, since she couldn't be sure that Yun Yao was dead, it meant that the Queen Mother was sure that Yun Yao was still alive.

It's just that Yun Yao has been living in Linglong Pavilion, and on the surface, it seems that Yingquan is doing something, Ning Lan is dead, and no one has reported to the Queen Mother, so who made the Queen Mother sure that Yun Yao is still alive? It must be someone from this Yi Palace.

"Slave, let's talk about the second flaw. Yun Yao spoke, "I brought up the matter of building a mausoleum in the barren mountain. This matter has been mentioned in the letters to Ning Gong several times before, but when mixed with other things, it is not very worthy of attention. But the Empress Dowager Qin specially wrote to emphasize this matter and asked Yingquan to investigate, indicating that she had doubts about the matter of the mausoleum. The letter we sent back to Ning Palace was true or false, and there were other things that were more suspicious, but she didn't say a word, and only asked Yingquan to explore the mausoleum, what does this mean?"

It shows that some people are suspicious in guiding the Empress Dowager Qin to the mausoleum. Shen Che squinted his eyes and said, "In other words, she asked Yingquan to explore the mausoleum, which is likely to be her temptation of Yingquan." If Yingquan didn't go to the mausoleum to see it in person, it meant that Yingquan didn't care about the task she gave at all...... It is also possible that Yingquan has rebelled and deceived her with this king. ”

"Your Highness is really wise, these flaws can be solved at a glance. Yun Yao nodded, "Since someone has provoked the suspicion of the Empress Dowager Qin, and it may be a temptation of Yingquan, then who is this person? and who will pass on the results of the temptation of Yingquan to Ning Palace?"

Listening to Yun Yao's words, Shen Che was a little silent, his mind recalled the faces of everyone in Yiwang Palace, although he couldn't remember everyone's faces, but he could faintly feel that this meticulous work hidden behind it was probably one of those concubines in his harem.

"The basic situation is already known to this king, how do you want this king to cooperate?" asked Shen Che.

"This ...... may have to be wronged by the Queen Mother. Yun Yao thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness can ...... like this."

Yun Yao leaned down and said his plan word for word, although it was a dangerous move, but if it was successful, it would be able to lure the person behind him out.

Shen Che listened to the whole plan, his eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Yun Yao's gaze with a hint of approval. What Gu Qingming said is really right, this woman is smart and sure enough, if she is a man, she must be a good strategist.

"Well, as you say, this king will do as you say. Shen Che said, then shook Yingquan's hand and spoke again, "It's not early, it's been tossing for half a night, you're tired, have a good rest, and this king will come to see you tomorrow." ”

"Yes, my Highness. Lu Yingquan nodded, and let Yun Yao see Shen Che leave.

Shen Che left the Linglong Pavilion with the Jade Gonggong and returned to the Hall of Light, and at the moment when Shen Che stepped into the dormitory of the Hall of Light, a figure appeared in the dark, kneeling in front of him dressed in black, and said:

"Your Highness, someone from the capital has arrived. ”

Shen Che's body was shocked, he turned his head to look at the dark guard, and asked, "Who is here?"

"General Gu Qingming. The dark guard said, "It's just that on the surface, General Gu should still be guarding the tomb in Jeju's hometown, and the Ning Palace shouldn't know that he is here." ”

"Where is he now?" Shen Che asked again.

"At the inn where we stayed before. The dark guard replied, "General Gu came in Qiao Zhuang's disguise, and he acted very carefully, he came for several days to make sure that there were no nails around, and then contacted his subordinates." ”

"This king knows, you go and talk to Gu Qingming, this king will go and meet him for a while tomorrow night. Shen Che said, "Let him pay attention to his own safety, and don't be targeted by Empress Dowager Qin's people." ”

"The subordinates obeyed. The dark guard answered, and then flew out, and the figure disappeared into the dark night.

Shen Che recalled what happened today, and then went to bed to rest. Since he pretended to be a king who was addicted to wine, it was normal for him not to go to the morning court for three days, so he slept until dawn.

When Shen Che was still resting, Lu Yingquan had already completed his move to subdue people's hearts. She asked Mangosteen to be released, saying that she could ignore Mangkhut's faults, as long as Mangosteen would serve her wholeheartedly from now on. And Mangosteen no longer has to be threatened by Wanxin, and he is also grateful that Lu Yingquan did not confess her in front of King Yi, so he is grateful to Lu Yingquan.

According to Lu Yingquan's instructions, Imperial Physician Ye came to Linglong Pavilion to diagnose Lu Yingquan's pulse, and Lu Yingquan also took the opportunity to take Imperial Physician Ye for his own use.

"I know that when Imperial Doctor Ye first diagnosed Ximai, it was not because of poor medical skills, but because he was bought by Wei Liangren. Now that Wei Liangren has been punished, and no one has mentioned this matter, is Imperial Doctor Ye willing to do something for me?" Lu Yingquan looked at Imperial Doctor Ye who was kneeling on the ground to check his pulse, and asked.

Imperial Doctor Ye originally thought that this Lu Yingquan came to him to settle accounts with him, but he didn't expect that Lu Yingquan was willing to give him this opportunity.

He thought about it, with the degree of favor that Yiwang Shen Che has for Lu Yingquan now, he naturally listens to whatever she says, and doing things for Lu Yingquan is naturally equivalent to having the protection of Yiwang.

Thinking of this, Imperial Physician Ye immediately nodded and said, "Weichen is willing to serve Lu Meiren. ”

"Very good, since you have decided to take refuge in me, then do a good job for me, I will not treat you badly. Lu Yingquan said, "Prescribe me a few tonics, and then retreat." ”

"Yes. Imperial Physician Ye answered, then turned around and left, and Sisi sent Xiao Mozi and Imperial Physician Ye to get the medicine.

When it was close to noon, Shen Che seemed to have just woken up, first went to greet the Queen Mother, and then went directly to Linglong Pavilion.

Shen Che had lunch in Linglong Pavilion and accompanied Lu Yingquan for an afternoon, creating the illusion that he wanted to compensate Lu Yingquan because of Lu Yingquan's miscarriage, and no one in the Yi Palace doubted it, and even the Queen Mother advised Jiang Yi to be calm and calm.

After dinner, Shen Che asked Gonggong Yu to inform Jingshifang, and he rested in Linglong Pavilion and didn't go anywhere else.

He didn't tell Yun Yao the news of Gu Qingming's arrival in Yiguo, but in the middle of the night, while Lu Yingquan and Yun Yao were asleep, he quietly left Linglong Pavilion, detoured from the cold palace not far from the next door, went out of the palace gate, and went straight to the inn.
