Chapter 226: Who's going to Kill Someone?
But Shen Xiuzhi's death also made them shudder, for half a month, these people have never stepped out of the palace gate, there is no queen in the palace, and there is no queen mother, they don't need to ask anyone to salute, just pray that when these people investigate the cause of Shen Xiuzhi's death, don't find them.
And the death of the queen is a big event, from the post-sealing ceremony, within a few days, the entire capital knew that Shen Xiuzhi had suffered an accident, and some people even blamed Zhu Jiu for all this.
Yan Guo died because of her before, and now not long after Zhu Jiu moved into the palace, Shen Xiuzhi, who was about to be sealed, had an accident, if Zhu Jiu continued to stay in Xuanyuan Kingdom, wouldn't the entire Xuanyuan Kingdom be affected by a disaster like her?
In order to appease the people's grievances, the excerpt of the impeachment of Zhu Jiu was also sent to the palace like a mountain.
Xuanyuan Che was angry because of this, and he didn't see any of these folds, and the ministers asked him to deal with Zhu Jiu's voice, and he didn't know it, and he didn't know if it was because of this anger, he felt a headache these days.
Wei Ruhai carefully served him tea, and helplessly persuaded, "Your Majesty, why don't you go out of the palace to avoid it?" It just so happens that the days of spring hunting are also coming, and no matter how much the ministers think about it, they can't just follow you to the royal hunting grounds, right?"
"Hmph, Lone wants to go out and avoid it."
Xuanyuan Che glanced at him, took his tea and took a sip before looking at the fold in his hand, "As soon as the New Year is over, all the countries in the Kyushu Continent will come to worship Gu, it sounds good, and the Quartet comes to congratulate, in fact, I want to see if this Xuanyuan Country managed by Gu is just a fat meat that they can bite!"
Hearing him mention this, Wei Ruhai thought thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, among the small countries that came to worship Xuanyuan Country this time, the farthest is Loulan in the Western Regions, Loulan was once a part of the division of the big country Bixiu Country, and it was friendly with our Xuanyuan Kingdom twenty years ago, whether it was when Xuanyuan Country was weak, or we are now strong, Loulan didn't have anything to say to us, it's just that the Western Regions are big, but the forces are chaotic, Loulan's trip is to send their princes and princesses, one is for harmony, and the other is for surrender, I hope you can borrow troops for Loulan to defend the country."
Last time, when Xuanyuan Che had just entered the Xuanyuan Kingdom, Gao Xin Kingdom, Xia Kingdom, and even Yan Kingdom, which had not yet perished, rushed to join in the fun and sent Princess Heqin.
It's just that the people sent by these three parties ended up with a dead word, their purpose was not pure, and most of the forces from all sides tested him, only Loulan didn't join in the fun.
Now they had sent the people over just in time for the ceremony of his canonization, and they heard that they had arrived at the post station, and were now being placed by the people of the Ministry of Rites.
After Xuanyuan Che finished drinking the tea, he continued to deal with the twists and turns in his hands, but he didn't take this matter to heart, but said, "Pay more attention to the people over there in Loulan, if there are female cadres mixed in, they will be killed."
"Your Majesty, do you suspect that Shen Xiuzhi's death was deliberate?"
Wei Ruhai was taken aback.
Xuanyuan Che's face was as usual, and he didn't raise his eyelids: "Could it be that an old fritter like you, who has been in the palace for many years, also thinks that Shen Xiuzhi is just drowning?"
"This ...... The old slave doesn't dare."
Wei Ruhai slapped his mouth, then silently retreated to the side, not daring to disturb him anymore.
It was really Shen Xiuzhi's death too suddenly, although His Majesty opened his mouth and handed it over to Prime Minister Shen Cheng to do, but Prime Minister Shen Cheng has been traveling to many places in the past few days, and even checked Zhu Jiu, but he didn't find any clues on Zhu Jiu, and when Shen Xiuzhi was drowning at the time, everyone speculated that she accidentally fell down when she passed by the Imperial Garden that night.
Coupled with the rumors outside the palace, more and more people now believe that Zhu Jiuke killed Shen Xiuzhi.
Because they could not find any other evidence, it seems that this is the only one that is the most reliable.
And after this canonization, the royal power in the court was also consolidated, in addition to Xuanyuan Che, the family also took away some rights, basically united, and Xuanyuan Che was on par.
Only this balance can allow both sides to maintain the best state to work together in the imperial court, one side is too strong, or one side is too weak, it will cause an unfavorable situation, easy to be influenced by the outside world.
Not long after Xuanyuan Kingdom took the Yan Kingdom, the world was initially decided, and the imperial court could not withstand anything
Turbulent changes can't stand any suspicion.
But there is no doubt that since Xuanyuan Che dared to give away half of his rights, it proved that he had the strength to take back the other half, so no one in the court opposed him.
Seeing that he was about to retreat, Xuanyuan Che seemed to remember something and asked, "Where is General Zhu?"
"I'm helping the head of the household rebuild the outer city."
The inner city is almost rebuilt, and there are still a few places in the outer city that have not been completed, Zhu Jiu usually takes people to patrol there when he is fine, and helps the household department a lot.
"I heard that the outer city is better rebuilt than the inner city this time, have you ever been to see it?"
Wei Ruhai didn't understand how Xuanyuan Che said about the outer city, is it possible, His Majesty is also interested in the reconstruction of the outer city?
It stands to reason that even if the outer city is destroyed severely, it will have to be rebuilt in time for the post-sealing ceremony, just because the long waiter was assigned by His Majesty for the first time, so he kept improving, plus he had studied overseas before, and he was transferred from the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Households, and what he saw and heard was also different from everyone in the court.
On the contrary, it was Zhu Jiu who was able to coincide with him in the proposal that the chief waiter said, so there were also many ideas for the reconstruction of the outer city.
After thinking about it, Wei Ruhai took the initiative to hand over a step, "Your Majesty, you see that you have been busy in the palace for the past two days, and you should also rest and rest, why don't you go to the outer city for a walk?" The right to pay a private visit to see how the people live under your governance?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Xuanyuan Che nodded with satisfaction and put down his pen and ink, "You're right, going out for a walk more is also good for Lone's body."
Seeing this, Wei Ruhai hurriedly smiled, went to the cabinet to get a set of light-colored regular clothes, and personally served him to change into them.
Then he also changed his set, followed him as a servant, and the two quietly left the palace.
At this time, the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Prime Minister, Linglong is awake! Linglong is awake!"
Three days ago, when Shen Xiuzhi's body was brought to Qinglongtai, Prime Minister Shen immediately asked people to take Linglong back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
But when she was found, Linglong had already passed out in the room, according to the imperial doctor's examination, she was highly poisoned, if it wasn't for Shen Chengxiang to detoxify her in time, I was afraid that Linglong's life would not be guaranteed.
It can be seen that there is indeed someone who wants to harm Shen Xiuzhi!
The other party first put down Linglong, and then pushed his daughter into the cold pool and drowned, it was really poisonous!
As soon as the little servant reported it, Prime Minister Shen Cheng quickened his pace and couldn't wait to rush into Linglong's room, "Linglong, tell me quickly, what happened to you and Miss three days ago?" Who is going to poison you?"
