Chapter 277: Purpose (1st Update)
The eldest princess of Sheng'an sat with the queen for a short while, and then she heard someone tell her that someone had died in the palace.
The queen stood up, "Who?" ”
The chamberlain announced, "It was Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei's father and son, who were killed." ”
Hearing this, the queen turned her head to look at the eldest princess of Sheng An.
The eldest princess of Sheng An nodded to her, "Let's go, I'll accompany you to take a look, this Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei have been detained in the palace for a few days, and they didn't have an accident in the morning, or in the evening, but they had an accident today." Let's see what's going on? ”
When the queen heard this, she understood, the reason why the eldest princess of Sheng An came to the palace today was to wait for this matter.
The emperor heard that Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei were dead, and soon after he took his breath, his eyes were dark, and King Ruian entered the palace with his front foot and said that Zhao Fei was interrogated, but after a moment's effort, Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei's father and son died, what does this mean? It shows that he, the emperor, has eyeliner around him.
He glared at Father-in-law Yu angrily, "Yu An, what the hell is going on?" Isn't it you? ”
Father-in-law Yu knelt on the ground with a "poof", "Your Majesty, the old slave's heart for you can be learned from heaven and earth, if you don't believe in the old slave, the old slave can only die to make his will." ”
The Emperor glared at him, "Then you say, what's going on?" ”
Father-in-law Yu shook his head, "The old slave didn't know, when the old slave went, he heard an exclamation inside, the old slave rushed in with someone to take a look, and saw that the father and son fell to the ground together, without any injuries around their bodies, but the person was already angry, and the body was still warm." ”
He said with a white face: "The old slave has arranged for someone to seal off that place, and now he can only ask for an autopsy to thoroughly investigate the reason." ”
He was about to cry, "The old slave dares to assure Your Majesty that the old slave really sent his most trusted minions to take care of it, and there has been no accident for so many days, who knows how it happened to be so coincidental today." ”
The Emperor turned his head to look at King Ryan.
King Ruian's face remained unchanged, obviously expecting it, and he bowed his hand to the emperor, "Your Majesty, go and take a look." ”
The emperor had a calm face, "I will go with you." ”
So, the two went to the place where Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei's father and son were imprisoned together.
When the two arrived, they saw the queen and the eldest princess of Sheng'an coming from afar, the emperor stopped, frowned, and asked Gonggong Yu, "Why did the eldest princess enter the palace?" ”
King Ryan spoke at this time, "Back to Your Majesty, the eldest princess met with the minister at the gate of the palace and entered the palace together, the eldest princess also came to see Your Majesty, she saw that the minister had important things to do, she said that she was not in a hurry, let the minister come to see you first, and she herself went to talk to the queen." ”
The emperor bowed his head and waited for the queen and his party to approach.
The queen hadn't seen the emperor for many days, and when she saw it, she found that the emperor hadn't seen him for a few days, and she seemed to have a lot of gray hair, and the whole person was not as radiant as before, quite gloomy, she was startled and gave the emperor a salute.
The emperor said, "The Empress is exempt." Greeting the eldest princess of Sheng'an, "Why did the eldest aunt enter the palace?" I heard Ryan say that you have something to do with me? I don't know what's going on?"
"For Brother Gu'er's business, it's not a big deal." The eldest princess of Sheng An waved her hand, "I just went to the queen's palace and sat for a while, and I heard that something happened in the palace, thinking about how many years there has been no death in the palace, come and take a look." ”
How many years did the eldest princess of Sheng'an deliberately mention it, and when the emperor thought about it, he was really going to criticize the queen's thoughts, so he suddenly stopped.
The queen is grateful, she is in charge of the six palaces, but she can't reach out everywhere, such as His Majesty's imperial study, the dormitory, the dormitory, etc., such as the concubines' bedrooms, but once something happens in the palace, the first to be held accountable is her, the queen.
Don't look at the person who was sent by His Majesty to take care of it, but if something happens, with His Majesty's temperament, he will definitely hold her accountable. She is not afraid of being held accountable, but she is afraid that there will be too much criticism and implicate the prince, especially now that it is such a chaotic situation.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an came for her today, and also for the prince, which shows that the Protectorate Mansion is now completely on the side of the prince. Compared to before, it was much better to only take care of one person and lean towards the East Palace, and the Protector Mansion did not intervene.
It has been difficult for her for so many years.
The emperor said: "I just knew, let's go in and have a look!" ”
The group entered the courtyard where Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei were being held, and sure enough, as Father-in-law Yu said, Zhao Lao'er and Zhao Fei had no injuries around them, as if they were asleep, but they were already exhausted, and their bodies were still warm.
"Is it poisoning?" The emperor asked.
The Imperial Doctor and the Imperial Physician also came at this time, and after Qi Qi saw it, the Imperial Physician shook his head, "This doesn't look like poisoning." ”
He also said: "It's not like poisoning, but there are no injuries all around, it's really strange." ”
The imperial doctor and the servant came to several people, but they couldn't see the reason, and King Ruian said: "Your Majesty, can you allow the minister to take these two people out of the palace, and ask Miss Su Qi to check it, Miss Su Qi is good at medicine, and she may be able to see the reason." ”
The emperor nodded when he heard this, "It's okay!" ”
King Ruian waved his hand and ordered people to move people away, then thought about it and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it is impossible for people to die for no reason, in this palace, you have to investigate." Because the palace is full of ladies, it is really inconvenient if the ministers come to check. ”
He recommended, "It just so happens that the eldest princess has entered the palace today, why don't you bother the eldest princess to come to check the palace?" After all, this case has a lot at stake, and Your Majesty, you are busy with government affairs, so you can't come to investigate it in person. ”
The emperor wanted to say that even if I was busy with court affairs, I could personally investigate, and the palace could not let the eldest princess of Sheng'an come to check, otherwise let her reach in, she was such a powerful woman, wouldn't she check his palace to the bottom, and what secrets would there be in the future? Will he be able to sleep in peace?
But before he could speak, the queen pleaded: "Yes, Your Majesty, there has been an accident in this palace recently, and the concubine also thinks that it is most appropriate for the eldest aunt to investigate." The eldest aunt is a trustworthy person, and there were several major cases in the palace of the former emperor, all of which were investigated by the eldest aunt. ”
In other words, the first emperor trusted the eldest princess, why can't you believe it?
The emperor choked, looked at the eldest princess of Sheng'an, and suddenly found that the eldest princess of Sheng'an's hair was all white, and now standing here, she was an old woman who was drooping.
The emperor was in a trance, he only remembered that when he ascended the throne, the eldest princess of Sheng'an was strong in order to help him ascend the throne smoothly, but he forgot that after so many years, she was also getting old.
The breath in the emperor's heart suddenly relaxed, and he finally nodded, "Since the prince and the queen both said so, I have no opinion, this case that happened in the palace will bother the eldest aunt!" I naturally trust my aunt. ”
The main purpose of the eldest princess Sheng An's entry into the palace today is for this, and it is most suitable for her to take over the investigation of the palace case. She nodded and responded happily, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll investigate, cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, don't even think about hiding." ”
