At night, the wind in the palace is always stronger than it seems elsewhere.

Those winds pass through the long cloisters, which are walled high and cannot be seen as far as the eye can see. During the day, I look at the golden and splendid, but at night, I always feel that the yin wind is swishing and seeping people.

The candles in the jade lanterns are bright or dark, except for the activities of His Majesty and some favored palace concubines, the other neglected places are often pitch black. The souls that had once dissipated within the walls of this great palace wandered with the wind at night, whining in every corner.

For a while, the emperor couldn't sleep at night, so he said that there were too many unclean things in this palace, but the palace was not allowed to engage in those ghosts and gods, and naturally it was even more impossible to blatantly ask any mage to exorcise ghosts.

So, the emperor stayed in the imperial study day and night.

There are no windows in the imperial study, and there is a narrow passageway, so there is no wind in the imperial study, and there are no grievances of those dead souls.

Tonight, however, wherever the wind blows, the candles on the ground are beating.

The sound of footsteps came from outside, and the footsteps trotted in, and there was a panting face outside the door, it was the little eunuch who had just been sent out, he had forgotten even the basic etiquette, and howled when he came in, "Chief...... Boss, there's a fight outside! ”

Chang Gonggong's hand fell to the ground with a dust, "What?!" Who's fighting whom? Since he picked up this dust, he had never been so out of shape, and he didn't care about picking it up at the moment, so he asked anxiously.

The little eunuch didn't speak very well, "Outside, outside...... The soldiers of the county king and the palace of His Royal Highness the county king are fighting with our soldiers guarding the city! Our people are losing and retreating, afraid of it, afraid of it...... I'm afraid I'm invincible! ”

Finished...... The paper can't hold the fire.

Chang Gonggong's eyes darkened for a while. Since this incident happened, until this moment, Grandpa Chang has been thinking about how to turn big things into small things and small things, if he can calm things down, it would be the best, and wait for His Majesty to wake up and see how to decide...... But this time, I'm afraid it won't work.

He turned to look at the Emperor, who didn't look in pain, the blood from the corners of his mouth had been wiped clean, and he looked like he was asleep.

Father-in-law Chang frowned and asked the imperial doctor, "What's wrong?" He was anxious, his tone was not good, and he didn't care about these things, so he avoided Qing Ming.

I just prescribed the medicine, the medicine has not yet been decocted, and His Majesty has not drunk the medicine once, even if it is the reincarnation of the miracle doctor, it will not help, right? The imperial doctor was scolded, but he still got up and replied respectfully, "It's not a big deal." Mr. Chang can rest assured. ”

It's like saying it and not saying it.

I heard this sentence "It's okay" several times tonight, and I always feel very unreliable. Chang Gonggong closed his eyes, stabilized his mind, and when he opened his eyes, he saw His Royal Highness King Rui get up, bend down, pick up the dust that fell on the ground, and hand it over.

"Give...... How can the chief steward drop it and be seen by the little eunuchs, and you will have to laugh at you in the future. His Highness said it, relieved...... Let's fight, Gu Yanqing is in our hands, afraid of those soldiers? ”

But a soldier came with a sword, bowed his hand, and replied, "The queen is waiting outside, saying that she wants to see Lord Gu." ”

The paper can't hold the fire, and His Majesty can't wake up, so there is no need to hide it at this time, and it can't hide left and right. Father-in-law Chang took the dust in Gu Yansheng's hand and took a step back, "Please." ”

……

It's late at night.

The queen came dressed up, with a serious complexion, followed by the grandmother, dragging a tray covered with a red handkerchief in her hand.

She approached the imperial study all the way, walked to Gu Ci, stretched out her hand, Mama handed the tray in her hand with both hands, the queen opened the red handkerchief, and there was a warm jade seal, carved dragon and phoenix, very gorgeous - the queen's private seal.

"Your Majesty was murdered by gangsters, and although he is not worried about his life, he has not woken up yet. Now that the palace gate has been attacked, a woman in the palace has no power to return to heaven. Fortunately, Lord Gu has full authority to help you transfer troops, and I ask you to do your best to help Your Majesty calm down this matter and avoid turmoil in the Dacheng Dynasty. ”

After the queen finished speaking, she bent down and bowed.

Gu Ci held it up in time and responded, "This is a matter within the responsibility of the ministers." Mothers don't have to be polite. After speaking, he didn't pick up the private seal of that party, first, the queen's private seal can mobilize not many troops, and second, he has probably guessed what Shi Huan wants to do...... Bad.

Gu Ci got up to say goodbye and went to the gate of the palace.

The empress sat beside the emperor and looked at Gu Yanqing, "His Royal Highness the King of the County...... The original intention of this palace was to directly tie His Royal Highness to the gate of the city, and order the soldiers of the county king's palace to surrender their swords and be captured, but the palace ...... I want to ask the truth of the matter. ”

"King of Changshan County...... What is the intention? ”

Gu Yanqing turned her head and didn't look at the queen, and hung Erlang locally, "The poison is not under this king, whether you believe it or not, this king only said so." This king has been framed...... Maybe he was framed by your own son, the queen mother. How, do you still have to check it? ”

The queen scolded sharply, "Presumptuous! How is the truth, this palace will find out, and it will never wronged the king of the county, and it will not be wronged the son of this palace! ”

A eunuch replied, "Niangniang...... Dali Temple Qing Xie asked to see. ”

The queen hesitated slightly, her eyes narrowed slightly, and the fingertips resting on the back of the chair trembled slightly, "Please." ”

Master Xie didn't come alone, he also brought a maid, who lowered her head, but she could also see that she looked ugly.

Gu Yanqing's face changed instantly, her expression was grim and her expression was fierce, her voice popped out from between her teeth, word by word, "Sure enough, it's you!" ”

The maid wandered sneakily at the door of Xie's house in the middle of the night, claiming to be the maid of the county king's mansion, named Li Xiaojiang, asked the reason, saying that she found that her county king had brought poisoned wine into the palace, she hesitated for a night, and decided to tell the matter.

Since the king of Changshan County left the county king's mansion, she went straight to the Xie family, but she couldn't decide to take that step, until she was caught by the Xie family's porter as a thief in front of Lord Xie, and the frightened girl said about it.

She had no idea that it had already happened.

After hearing this, the queen's face was solemn and cold, "So...... His Royal Highness...... You said that you didn't do it, but this palace wants to believe you, but now, there are all the human and material evidence, what else do you have to say? ”

"Huh." Gu Yanqing sneered, his expression was unprecedentedly gloomy and solemn, he smiled and laughed, and suddenly burst into laughter, "Haha!" Rong Xi Ah Rong Xi! It's you! In vain, the king has never doubted you! Ha ha! ”

He smiled, his laughter was cold, as if at midnight, the devil had risen from under the Nine Nether Purgatory, and bloody claws appeared under the moon......
