Chapter 242: Hidden Weapon
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he looked at the servant girl with some surprise and said, "Boss, why are there really so many people who are here to spy on the master?" ”
"Hmm."
Cheng Ning said lightly, asking him to help.
After talking for a while, when he saw someone coming, he returned to his previous shy appearance and helped Cheng Ning deal with the layout here.
Qi Moxiao also said that he wanted people to stay in the palace, so Cheng Ning directly arranged his people around this courtyard, so that they could know what was going on in every corner of the palace.
Moreover, it is not easy for people to spot.
Moreover, this place has been rearranged, and those people must have thought that this place is weak, and if they want to come in to find out the news of the palace, they will definitely come to this place first.
is also like the maid just now, pretending to be a person from the palace, but she didn't want to, her too clumsy martial arts still exposed its existence.
Cheng Ning followed Zhuguang's instructions, and the young man went to dispose of the maid's body.
At the same time, Yin 13 had already come to the courtyard where Concubine Li was.
This yard is actually not bad, and it is not more ugly than the peony garden with clouds and moons.
It's just that after coming back from the peony garden today, she has been sitting in the house, not eating or drinking, and everyone who goes in has been scolded by her for being a bloody dog before coming out.
As soon as she heard the movement of the window, she was stunned for a moment, and the quilt that was supposed to go out was taken back, and she looked at the black shadow that came in with some grievance: "Yin Thirteen, you can't bear to watch me being bullied by the princess's slut?" ”
After Yin Shisan landed, he looked at her a little helplessly: "In short, don't go to the princess's peony garden in the future." ”
"Why?" Suddenly, she frowned and looked at Yin Thirteen with some dissatisfaction.
Yin Shisan couldn't tell her clearly that there was no one in the peony garden who knew him and could afford to provoke him, not to mention that the young man who was with Yun Zhuyue today was transferred from the dark guard camp like him, and he was wilted.
After thinking about it, he solemnly looked at Concubine Li: "Because the princess also wants to kill you, if you go again, you will be caught in the net." ”
"What?!"
Concubine Li's eyes widened in shock, her face was a little pale, and she lowered her head in panic: "This is too much, right?" I didn't kill her......"
After Yin Shisan's persuasion, Concubine Li also realized that she couldn't fight the clouds month by month.
Moreover, if Yun Zhuyue wanted to kill her, he could have killed her a long time ago.
Besides, the prince has always been on which side of Yun Zhuyue, if he continues to fight with Yun Zhuyue, it will not be cost-effective.
With this mentality, she was a little more cautious when dealing with things related to Yun Zhuyue.
And there was nothing to do on her side, in the courtyard on Yun Zhuyue's side, Green Star took a cup of tea and sent it to Yun Zhuyue with a smile: "Niangniang, if only you had taught Concubine Li this lesson before." ”
"Before? That's because there is the Li family behind her, and the concubine can't move, but now it seems that if these people don't clean up, even my peony garden will be blown off. Yun Zhuyue said lightly, taking her tea and rinsing her mouth.
Seeing that Yun Zhuyue didn't seem to take Concubine Li to heart, it seemed that there was a way to deal with her, so Lu Xing breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to Yun Zhuyue: "Speaking of which, there is something that the slave maid hasn't reported to you today." ”
"What's the matter?"
She asked.
Green Star said, "Didn't the slave go to the pharmacy today?" At the pharmacy, a bottle of poison was missing. ”
As she spoke, she hesitated for a moment before telling Yun Zhuyue the news she had found.
It turned out that the symptoms of the bottle of poison were very similar to the symptoms of Aunt Xue when she was poisoned before.
Moreover, the people who entered the pharmacy not long ago, in addition to Concubine Li, also had Qi Moxiao.
So, for a while, I couldn't tell who had taken the bottle of poison.
Yun Zhuyue was a little surprised: "Although I knew that Concubine Li would definitely do something to these concubines in the courtyard, I didn't expect that she would do it to Aunt Xue, and so quickly." ”
The shot was crisp and neat, and even Yun couldn't help but say month by month: It's better to be ashamed.
She's really amazing.
For a while, shaking his head, Yun Zhuyue did not continue to dwell on this matter.
The specific things, no matter how she guesses now, are all fake, and she will only find out when Qi Moxiao comes back.
At the same time, the Royal Palace.
After everyone went down to the early court, the emperor kept Qi Moxiao to speak.
After Qi Moxiao followed the emperor to the imperial study, he stood quietly aside, his body a little calm and calm.
Anyway, if the emperor doesn't speak, he won't speak.
I saw that the emperor was knocking on the table with a match, and looked at Qi Moxiao with a smile: "You have been a little restless recently, why did you die of an aunt?" ”
Before, when Luo Qiaoyan died, because Qi Moxiao had so many prisoners in his hands and made meritorious contributions, it was not good for the emperor to punish Qi Moxiao when everyone was making money.
This has been delayed until now.
Moreover, Qi Moxiao has become more and more powerful recently, and the emperor has already faintly felt that he is about to be unable to suppress him.
Once you are jealous of this person in your heart, it will be like the flooding Yellow River, and you can never get it back.
Qi Moxiao glanced at it thoughtfully, and didn't answer anything, just said silently: "Your Majesty, all this is just a misunderstanding. ”
He didn't plan to explain anything, the emperor wanted to question, and he also had a way to perfunctory the past.
Besides, he is the one who took the initiative to report this matter, what tricks does the emperor have, Qi Moxiao already has a bottom in his heart.
It's just that at this time, she didn't say it.
"Misunderstanding?" Sure enough, the emperor sneered at his words, and then said: "If you told me that you had misunderstood the death of a side concubine before, I might have really believed it." ”
"But now, another concubine has died in your palace, and so many lives appear and spread out, don't you damage the face of our court?" When these words came out of his mouth, there was a cold feeling.
Qi Moxiao was silent, but lowered his head, indicating that he was now obeying his words.
Immediately afterwards, I only heard the emperor say to him: "Since the princess is not doing well, and she can't even take care of the affairs of the back house, then I can only punish and admonish a little, I hope that after the prince goes back, he will teach the princess well!" ”
He can't move Qi Moxiao, can't he even move a mere princess?
The emperor thought so in his heart, and sure enough, as soon as these words came out, he immediately saw Qi Moxiao, whose face was completely blackened.
A sneer flashed in his eyes.
He didn't go on on with it.
Just raised his head slightly, and he saw what kind of look the emperor was.
It's a pity that the emperor didn't seem to notice Qi Moxiao's thoughts, but continued to say to himself: "Can the prince understand what I mean? ”
"I don't know what the emperor means? The minister is stupid, and he asked the emperor to explain it in detail. Qi Moxiao said lightly, still lowering his head, as if he had no intention of refutating.
This appearance fell into the eyes of the emperor, and it was tacitly assumed that Qi Moxiao was following his orders.
Otherwise, according to Qi Moxiao's character, he would have started to rebel a long time ago.
So, the emperor intensified his efforts, and said to him with a sneer: "What I mean is that the princess's management of the back house is unfavorable, and the image of the palace that is detrimental to human life has been damaged by the palace, if the prince does not want to lose the power in his hands, it is best to punish the princess severely according to the law." ”
Saying that, he gradually got up, came to the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the scenery outside, and said with a good expression: "Naturally, I will not treat the princess badly, so how about sending him to Jinfa Temple to practice meditation?" ”
He clearly knew that what Yun Zhuyue hated the most was the Buddhist temple.
But at this time, it is still necessary to send the clouds over month by month.
As expected, the Jinfa Temple is actually the emperor's territory, who knows how many eyeliners he planted in that place?
Moreover, if Yun Zhuyue really entered, it meant that he had fallen into the hands of the emperor, and Qi Moxiao had a reason to be restrained by him.
When the time comes, it is up to the emperor to decide how to use the clouds to threaten him month by month.
"Besides, King Jiangchuan, don't think that I am too much, usually you go out to inquire and know what Yun Zhuyue has done on the street, Huang Houye's son Huang Tao was beaten like that by him before, you have also heard of it, right?"
The emperor's words fell into Qi Moxiao's ears, and Qi Moxiao wanted to laugh in his heart, but his face was calm, he just nodded silently, and motioned for him to continue.
Sure enough, seeing that Qi Moxiao didn't react, the emperor was even happier at this time: "Such a woman will naturally be punished heavily, whether it is a small city or a big ring, it can be seen by those people, if you don't follow the rules of our royal family, what kind of punishment will you receive?" ”
Speaking of this, he beat his chest a little painfully, and turned his head to look at Qi Moxiao: "In addition, the princess is so unruly, and she has also left a lot of names as fierce women in this palace and outside, and it is not good to hear it out, and it is time for the prince to rectify it." ”
It wasn't until the emperor finished saying these words that a smile appeared in Qi Moxiao's eyes.
These smiles seemed faint, and they didn't take the emperor's words to heart.
I saw that she gently helped the emperor to sit down on the chair, and when he was firmly seated on the dragon chair, she lifted the teapot and poured him a cup of hot tea.
Qi Moxiao's hands are very good-looking, and when he pours tea, the sound of tea is curling, and it sounds very pleasant.
"Your Majesty, do you remember when we were children?" Qi Moxiao said lightly, and said to him unhurriedly: "No matter what happened when I was a child, you were very tolerant of the business methods that our king learned, as well as the strategies of national business, all of which were stolen from you. ”
