Chapter 49: Clearing Grievances
Chu Moze glanced at the shop, "Dian Su Pavilion", which was the same as the one opened by Yue Qing in the capital.
Chu Moze asked his subordinates to understand the situation and learned that the store was also opened by Yue Qingning.
She was also guaranteed by the landlord "Lord Chu" and became the owner of this Mojiazhuang.
Chu Moze watched the Zhou farce quietly on the side, and suddenly a young man who looked like a beggar crawled to the woman's side, helped her up, and the two limped away.
"Go, check their relationship with Yue Qingning." Chu Moze instructed one of his subordinates.
After watching the farce, Chu Moze led the rest of his subordinates to Chu Hanye's mansion here and stayed at the inn on the side.
Chu Moze picked the guest room on the highest floor, and from the window of the guest room, he could see the general situation in Chu Hanye's mansion.
Although there are no people living in the house now, the people are still sweeping the house in an orderly manner and tidying up the backyard.
"Watch, report to me if there's anything out of the ordinary."
The purpose of his trip was to investigate Chu Hanye.
Although he was blinded and crippled his legs because of the huge poison in the Northern War, and handed over the military power before going to the fiefdom, Chu Moze did not believe that he had really been idle in the fiefdom for five years, and suspected that he had secretly cultivated his own forces and even colluded with foreign thieves.
This time I came to find out if Chu Hanye had any elite soldiers or secret guards here.
If there is, it is a rebellion, which is not tolerated by the world.
At night, Chu Moze and several subordinates put on night clothes and sneaked into Chu Hanye's mansion.
At this time, the house was quiet, and all the subordinates went back to their rooms to sleep, not even the night watchers.
"Search every corner of this mansion for me, especially the corners, to see if there are any secret doors, etc."
Chu Moze's subordinates have undergone special training, and their light skills are excellent, and their exploration ability is also first-class.
In the blink of an eye, several black-clothed people scattered and appeared in all corners of Chu Hanye's mansion.
After searching all night, they couldn't find even a single anomaly in the eastern sky, until the eastern sky began to leak white.
The most in Chu Hanye's study is the account book, and the rent collection of every household in the fiefdom every month is recorded in detail.
Back at the inn, everyone had thick dark circles on their faces.
"General, could it be that the wild king has really just collected rent and done business all these years?" Mo Xin, the subordinate led by Chu Moze, was very confident in his search ability, no matter what secret passage or secret code, he couldn't escape his eyes.
He couldn't find it, and the proof wasn't there.
Chu Moze glanced at him coldly and was silent.
He didn't believe that Chu Hanye had completely lost his ambition at all.
When Chu Hanye was still the powerful god of war prince of the Central Plains Kingdom, he saw him for the first time, and he was as majestic as a god descending from heaven, and every time he led his troops into battle, he repelled the enemy with thunder.
It must be hidden somewhere else.
He decided to stay in Mojiazhuang for a while, firstly, to find out Chu Hanye's hidden forces, and secondly, to find out Yue Qingning's identity.
——
The scar and stretch mark ointment developed by Yue Qingning for Mrs. Zhang had been prepared, and she went to the Guogong Mansion early this morning to give it to Mrs. Zhang.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Mrs. Zhang walking out, looking like she was going somewhere.
"Miss Yue, why are you here?" Mrs. Zhang was a little surprised.
Yue Qingning pointed to the box in Bihuan's hand and said with a smile: "The ointment I said I made for you last time has been done." ”
Mrs. Zhang took it in surprise, opened the wooden box and saw that there were three white and clean porcelain bottles lying inside, she was very happy, she had been looking forward to it for several days.
"Mrs. Zhang, are you going?" Yue Qingning saw that she was dressed more ceremoniously than usual.
"The queen asked me to come into the palace to talk to her and relieve her boredom."
"I see, then the lady will go first, and I won't delay you." After speaking, Yue Qingning was about to return to the carriage.
Mrs. Zhang grabbed her: "Eh, Miss Yue, why don't you accompany me into the palace, I always attended banquets when I entered the palace before, and I couldn't go to the imperial garden to see, and the words there are better than anywhere." ”
Yue Qingning was a little embarrassed: "I have no name, no share, and I can't be invited, how can I enter the palace casually." "If you run into Yuan Ruge's annoying spirit again, you may not know how to raise the bar with yourself.
Mrs. Zhang waved her hand and insisted on taking her there: "The last time I saw the queen, she mentioned you to me, and her words were full of praise and love for you, and I really wanted to talk to you." ”
Yue Qingning wondered, she and the queen had only met twice, and they didn't have any friendship, why did she like herself so much.
remembered that at the last birthday banquet of Yuan Ruge, the queen relieved herself, and she seemed to be quite friendly.
Not wanting to refute Mrs. Zhang's face, Yue Qingning tidied up her appearance a little and went into the palace with Mrs. Zhang.
Although I have seen the appearance of the queen's palace on TV, it is still shocking to see it with my own eyes.
The eaves of the palace are decorated with various delicate bird and beast patterns depicted in gold lacquer, and the cyan glazed tiles reflect a brilliant luster under the sunlight. The columns on both sides of the palace are carved with phoenix patterns, which are lifelike, as if the real phoenix is coiled on it.
The eunuch in charge of communication in the queen's palace was a little surprised when he saw Yue Qingning following behind Mrs. Zhang, but he quickly buried his head and entered the palace to communicate.
And in a short time he came out and led them into the temple.
Yue Qingning was a little nervous, because Chu Hanye had told himself more than once that he had to be more attentive to the people in the palace, no matter who it was, and be careful of saying the wrong things and doing the wrong things, causing trouble.
Although Chu Hanye said that he could take care of it even if he got into trouble, she didn't want to cause trouble for Chu Hanye.
"Say hello to the queen, blessed mother!" Mrs. Zhang took the lead in making a big salute in front, and Yue Qingning also knelt down in the same way.
"You just gave birth to a child, and your body is not very good, so you don't need to be polite." The queen's voice is gentle and warm, which makes people listen like a spring breeze.
Yue Qingning raised her head, but saw the queen looking at her with a smile, her eyes looking up and down a lot of herself without a trace.
Mrs. Zhang had strong eyesight, and seeing that the queen was interested in Yue Qingning, she hurriedly pulled Yue Qingning forward: "Niangniang, the courtiers happened to meet Miss Yue on the way out of the house, and remembered that you often mentioned the girl a few days ago, so I took the initiative to bring her. ”
The queen stretched out her jade onion-like hand, Yue Qing was stunned, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold it.
"Miss Yue is really a fairy-like character." The queen took Yue Qingning's hand and looked at her like a loving mother.
"The mother has won the prize." Yue Qingning saluted respectfully, bowed her head obediently, and let the queen take a good look.
"Xiuluan, give a seat." When the queen had seen enough, she asked Yue Qingning to sit aside, taste some tea and snacks, and talk to Mrs. Zhang about her family routine.
Although Yue Qingning was sitting upright on the side, she was also quite bored, so she silently planned the relevant matters of her own factory in her mind.
After a long while, I suddenly heard the eunuch pass the news: "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." ”
The curtain of the door was opened, and first a pair of gold-embroidered double dragon dark brocade boots stepped in, and then a clear and handsome face.
The eyebrows are dyed like ink, the hair is covered with a golden crown, and the whole body exudes a sense of nobility and luxury.
Yue Qingning felt familiar, and remembered that Chu Hanye had taken him to see the prince in the cell before, so he buried his head down, for fear that the prince would recognize him and expose it in front of the queen.
"Greetings to the Queen Mother." The prince bowed and saluted, but Yu Guang still noticed Yue Qingning.
No way, her appearance is too outstanding, even if she dressed as a man last time, it is still impressive.
The queen caught the prince's attention to Yue Qingning, and thought that he was attracted by Yue Qingning's appearance, and the smile on his face was even worse.
"Emperor, this is Mrs. Zhang, the wife of Zhao Guogong, and Miss Yue, the sister of the wild king, the two of them came to talk to the palace today to relieve their boredom."
Yue Qingning had to face the prince and salute respectfully.
Nangong Yu glanced at Yue Qingning deeply, only nodded slightly, and did not make a sound, Yue Qingning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Emperor, did your father let you out?" The queen looked at Nangong Yu with pity, and saw that he had lost a lot, and there were tears in her eyes.
Although the suspicion of collusion with foreign thieves was cleared before, he was still caught in the whirlpool of corruption and bribery in the party, so he was confined to the womb and was only released today.
Nangong Yu comforted the queen: "My father has found out the truth and returned the innocence of his son, so don't worry about it." ”
"Just find out." The queen breathed a long sigh of relief and pulled the prince to ask for warmth.
"Mother, it's time to drink the medicine." The mother and son were talking about this, and Xiuluan brought a bowl of black medicine.
The queen glanced at Xiuluan reproachfully: "Who asked you to bring it here at this time?" ”
Nangong Yu asked worriedly, "Queen Mother, are you unwell?" ”
The queen explained that she didn't want Nangong Yu to worry, so she explained with a smile: "It's just that there was too much cold wind blowing a few days ago, and I had some headaches." ”
"Is it better to take the medicine?" Nangong Yu asked with concern.
The queen was about to say better, so as not to worry Nangong Yu, but the palace maid Xiuluan suddenly cried and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Niangniang has had a headache for a long time, and the imperial doctor has sent medicine every day, but nothing can be relieved after taking it." ”
When Nangong Yu heard this, his face was even more worried, and he blamed himself: "It's all to blame Erchen, it's Erchen's previous behavior that was not cautious enough, which caused people to misunderstand, and caused the queen mother to worry for so long." ”
The queen didn't want Nangong Yu to blame herself, and scolded Xiuluan: "Bold, who made you talk too much!" ”
said that Xiuluan was going to be punished.
Mrs. Zhang watched it from the side, feeling distressed that Xiuluan was also worried about the queen, so she opened her mouth to relieve the siege: "Niangniang is not angry, now His Royal Highness has cleared up his grievances and repaired the relationship between father and son with the emperor, Niangniang will no longer worry, and the headache will definitely be cured soon." ”
When the queen heard this, she was angry and let Xiuluan go out to wait.
"Queen Mother, if the imperial doctor in the palace can't cure it, the retainer will go to the people to find a famous doctor for you, and he will cure this headache for you."
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and looked at Yue Qingning beside her.
At this time, although Yue Qingning was sitting upright, her thoughts had long since disappeared, and her eyes were scattered and unfocused.
"Niangniang, Your Highness, if you talk about a famous doctor, isn't there a person sitting in the palace now?"
"Who?"
Everyone followed Mrs. Zhang's gaze and looked at Yue Qingning.
Yue Qingning was unaware, still stunned.
When Nangong Yu saw it, he felt that Yue Qingning was sincere and cute, and couldn't help but smile.
