Chapter 40: The Situation

Everyone in the palace knows that Gao Yan doesn't like the queen Yang, but in the past ten years, he has not really criticized the queen, and even in those years, the queen treated the prince like this, Gao Yan has never been guilty, this time, so angry, it is also an unexpected ending.

Luo Qingzhi approached the palace and saw Empress Yang sitting on the ground, while Gao Yan was sitting in the hall, drinking tea slowly.

"Wechen has seen Your Majesty, Queen."

Luo Qingzhi's arrival broke the situation, but it seemed to make the queen even more unhappy.

Empress Yang snorted coldly and asked rhetorically, "What, Your Majesty, is it to vent your anger for the county lord of Anning, so that she can see the fate of this palace with her own eyes?" ”

This may be the fastest time that Empress Yang understands Gao Yan's thoughts, Gao Yan did not refute, but just ordered to serve tea to Luo Qingzhi.

Gao Yan said slowly: "Queen, I didn't want to touch you, but why did you arrange for an assassin to move Ah Luo. ”

Empress Yang sat upright and asked, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, can the county lord have any damage?" ”

"If Ah Luo is really injured," Gao Yan suddenly sternly said, "Then you don't have to live." ”

Empress Yang laughed loudly, "So, the concubine should be grateful, Your Majesty just wants to abolish me now, not kill me?" ”

Gao Yan didn't say anything, and Empress Yang instantly moved her gaze to Luo Qingzhi.

She looked at Luo Qingzhi and then at Gao Yan, and laughed, "You Gao family members are sick, and they all like to steal, rob, and calculate......"

"Luo Qingzhi!" Empress Yang turned to her and said loudly, "Do you know that your father is ......"

Before Empress Yang could finish speaking, she was already pressed to the ground by the guards around her and covered her mouth.

Gao Yan looked at Huang Shi and nodded.

Huang Shi held the will that had just been drafted and read it out in a sonorous and powerful manner.

"Queen Yang, suddenly infected with disease, and even madness, I deeply feel that the queen has worked hard for many years, and Queen Yang's closed palace treatment, no purpose, no purpose, no purpose."

After the decree was read, the queen was escorted out of the Xuanyang Palace.

Luo Qingzhi stared at the direction they were leaving, and silently tightened her fists.

"Relieved? Arlo? Gao Yan asked.

"The minister and the queen have never had a disagreement, and as the queen said, the minister was not injured by the assassin." Luo Qingzhi explained.

Gao Yan became serious and said, "Ah Luo, ten years is not a long time, many things, I haven't forgotten. ”

Luo Qingzhi unconsciously became nervous, a little surprised, he and Queen Yang had a real holiday, even Luo Chen and they may not know, after all, at that time, only the two of them were present, but now listening to Gao Yan's words, it seems that he has long known.

"Wechen...... I wonder what Your Majesty means? Luo Qingzhi still chose to be tempted.

Gao Yan didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "Ah Luo, you have to believe that I never thought of harming Ah Yi back then, and I never sent someone to Yuzhou to send a letter to Ah Yi, let alone inform Jin An of Ah Yi's whereabouts." ”

"I know." Luo Qingzhi replied firmly, "I know it's not you, I'm just curious about how the queen sent the letter out of the imperial city back then." ”

That year, after the palace change, Luo Qingzhi was detained alone in the secret room of the imperial city, for three days and three nights, only the Yang family, who was still the princess at the time, came to see her, because she had known her since she was a child, and naturally had little vigilance against her.

Yang came to the secret room, brought clean clothes and food to Luo Qingzhi, and told her about the outside world.

"Ah Luo, don't be afraid, the prince didn't want to hurt you, but now the opposition outside is too big, and he doesn't want you to face this."

Luo Qingzhi hadn't recovered from the pain of losing her father, she just nodded like a wooden flute, she hadn't eaten for three days, and her body was already a little weak, "Yuzhou, how is Yuzhou?" ”

"The prince has blocked the news, and they shouldn't know anything yet." Yang replied.

"It's fine." Luo Qingzhi nodded, "It's okay, it's okay if Brother doesn't know." ”

"Your brother seems to know." Yang said.

Luo Qingzhi was a little flustered, and hurriedly asked, "How come?" How did Brother know? ”

Yang shook his head, with a gesture of embarrassment, "I don't know how he knew, I heard that he has already arrived in the suburbs of Beijing." ”

"Nope." Luo Qingzhi said: "It is a big crime for the border guards to leave the station without an edict. ”

Yang comforted, "Now you must come forward to persuade your brother, but, however, the prince will not let you leave for the time being." ”

Luo Qingzhi thought for a while, took off the bracelet, handed it to Yang, and said: "This is a relic of the deceased mother, the only one in the world, Brother will know that it is me, the princess and sister-in-law, can I trouble you to go out of the palace, and you must not let Brother enter Jinling." ”

Yang accepted the bracelet and nodded repeatedly.

Later, the Yang family did not go to the suburbs of Beijing to stop Luo Yi, but used the bracelet as evidence and sent it to Yuzhou, so that Feng Zinan and they thought that Luo Qingzhi was imprisoned in Jinling, and at the same time, they lost Luo Yi's whereabouts.

Gao Yan saw that Luo Qingzhi had not spoken, and knew that she remembered the past again.

"Ah Luo, back then, the withdrawal was also a last resort."

Luo Qingzhi came back to her senses, smiled lightly, and said, "Your Majesty, it's all over, I understand your situation at that time, all these years, your tolerance for me, every item is making up, I understand." ”

"Not exactly." Gao Yan said, he took a deep breath, "I know that you never wanted to take this road, but Ah Yi is missing, I have no one available, and I only believe you on the border of Yuzhou." ”

"Guarding the border is the mission of my Luo family, and my father and brother are not here, so I should shoulder this heavy responsibility." Luo Qingzhi said.

Gao Yan said: "Recruiting a son-in-law for you is also a last resort, and now, although Luo Jinchao is decided, I will find a way to delay." ”

Luo Qingzhi lowered her eyebrows slightly, hiding her loss, thinking, "It turns out that this is today's theme, in the end, I still don't want Gao Zhen to appear in front of everyone." ”

"Nope." Luo Qingzhi replied shortly but forcefully, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing." ”

Gao Yan was immediately displeased, but after a while, he re-stabilized his emotions.

"Okay, as long as Arlo wants to, he can do anything."

Luo Qingzhi continued, just in case: "I hope that I can marry Luo Jinchao as soon as possible. ”

“...... Good. ”

Luo Qingzhi continued: "So, I don't know what the auspicious day for the Ministry of Rites to verify is? ”

Gao Yan asked directly: "On which day does Ah Luo want to be, which day is an auspicious day." ”

"The eighth day of next month."

"Okay, I'll let the Ministry of Rites prepare well."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Luo Qingzhi said.

Gao Yan smiled and said, "I have agreed to Ah Luo's request, then, I have a request, can Ah Luo also agree." ”

"The minister is His Majesty's courtier, please do not hesitate to command." Luo Qingzhi said.

Gao Yan took out an excerpt from the bookcase and handed it to Luo Qingzhi.

Luo Qingzhi took it with both hands, opened it slowly, and quickly checked the content.

"Yuen Long, the prince of the country, participated in the Lantai Order, and the Xia nationality was involved in the school?"

Gao Yan nodded, "The excerpt was sent this morning, the Yuan Sacrifice Wine is never easy to use, I attach great importance to it, and this matter involves the students of the Guozi Prison, I am not good to hand it over to the Criminal Department, it is just right to hand it over to you." ”

Luo Qingzhi hesitated, and Gao Yan immediately said, "What? Arlo is backing down? ”

"No." Luo Qingzhi shook her head, "The minister is just thinking about why, Lord Sacrificial Wine, will choose to play at this time." ”

"Is there any difference at this point?" Gao Yan asked rhetorically.

Luo Qingzhi said: "The minister took a cursory look at the excerpt, which involved a private class set up by Lord Xia for students from a poor family, so coincidentally, the minister's husband is also from a poor family in the eyes of the outside world, and the minister is thinking, Lord Sacrificial Wine, is it Lord Xia who is suing, or me?" ”

"Arlo, don't think about it, go check it out."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Back at the county lord's mansion, Fan Li was already waiting in the study.

Seeing Luo Qingzhi's sad face, Fan Li asked, "Your Majesty has embarrassed you?" ”

Luo Qingzhi asked rhetorically: "How can Mr. think like this?" ”

Fan Li coughed and said, "Talk about it casually, I just feel that after you came back from the palace, you were a little troubled." ”

"Hmm." Luo Qingzhi said: "Your Majesty, you gave me a case. ”

"What case?" Fan Li asked.

"The prince of the country, the priest of wine, the Lord of the Imperial Ginseng, the envoy of the Staelan Order, set up a private school for the students of the poor family."

Fan Li said: "Let's not talk about how such a secret thing as a private school is known, let's just say that there is almost no intersection between this Guozijian and Yushitai. ”

Luo Qingzhi nodded, agreed with Fan Li's statement, and slowly expressed her worries, "There has always been a gap between the family and the Hanmen, the family has the best quality resources, and it is difficult for the Hanmen to get ahead, but this time, I chose Luo Jinchao as my son-in-law, which is to break this situation." ”

Fan Li said: "In the eyes of the outside world, everyone only knows that Luo Jinchao is a son of the Hanmen, but they don't know that he is the former prince, I understand your concern, if you want to talk about the most obvious place in the struggle between the family and the Hanmen, it must be the Guozijian." ”

Luo Qingzhi said: "I don't want to put this contradiction on the table so early. ”

"But." Fan Li was also worried, "Your Majesty has handed over the case to you, and you must not be sloppy." ”

"Well, I understand." Luo Qingzhi nodded and asked, "Sir, do you know this Xia master?" ”

Fan Li shook his head, "This person should have only joined the company in the past ten years." ”

"Still." Fan Li added, "Since you are from the Imperial Historical Tower, then you should know better if you ask Lord Baili." ”

Luo Qingzhi shrugged her shoulders and said, "Uncle should still be angry, it's not good to come to the door now." ”

"Angry?" Fan Li nodded understandingly, "Could it be that Su Yan was not chosen?" ”

"Wai Weng and Uncle can like this Su Yan, if not...... Maybe I'll choose him. Luo Qingzhi said.

Fan Li retorted, "I don't think so, this Su Yan, well, at a young age, acts so tactfully and thoughtfully, he must be a person who weighs the pros and cons, you are with him, it is inevitable that he will be calculated, I don't think he is a good son-in-law." ”

"Forget it." Luo Qingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "The dust has settled, let's think about the matter of this country's eunuch." ”

"How are you going to find out?" Fan Li asked.

Luo Qingzhi thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Guozijian first." ”

In an instant, she hesitated again, "If I go like this, I probably won't find anything...... However, Guozijian does not accept female disciples, so he can't get in. ”

"I'll take this trip for Arlo."

Gao Zhen walked in slowly.
