Chapter 92

Under the cliff of Lingshan Mountain

The guards of the Praetorian Army searched day and night, but with little success.

The embroidered shoe by the river, through the only remaining clues, has been found from the downstream to the upstream, and beside a dense forest, it has found some clues about the arrow feathers.

After careful inspection, the guards of the forbidden army quickly presented it to the emperor with the principle of not letting go of the slightest detail.

"Back to the emperor, Weichen found this thing, it may be related to the queen."

"The workmanship of this arrow is not from the Jokhang, it is like the usual swirling bow in the area of Shenbi Country, this arrow is extremely lethal at close range, and it looks like it was shot in the recent period of time, left behind."

After Jun Wu Shen took it, he held it in his hand and looked at it, although this arrow was broken and only the tail was left, but after careful identification, it was indeed the arrow feather of Shenbi Country, and in the cold winter of Layue, how could the arrow of Shenbi Country appear in a place where people were inaccessible.

After Jun Wu thought about it, he immediately ordered in a deep voice, "Check!" All the people who come and go from the Shenbi country near the capital city, if there is any suspicion, they will be arrested and reported immediately. ”

"The Emperor's ......"

Some generals felt that this move was inappropriate, and said worriedly, "The marriage between Zhao and Shenbi is imminent, and if you suddenly target the merchants of Shenbi Country at this time, I am afraid that it will provoke contradictions between the two countries." ”

Shen Bi has always had a long history of trade with the Jokhang and had very close contacts, and the emperor's decree will affect the trade between the two countries at the least, and at worst bring the peace between the two countries to a dangerous situation.

"Your Majesty, think twice!" The military general persuaded that it was a bit far-fetched to implicate Shen Biguo with just one broken arrow.

Jun Wushen's tone was gloomy and cold, revealing a beak that could not be ignored, "I have made up my mind." ”

Even if it is chasing after the wind and shadows, he has to investigate the slightest clue, he will never believe that a good person can evaporate from the world for no reason.

In the dark, he could sense that Qianqian was not dead, she must be alive and well, but he couldn't find her.

Jokhang Palace

Early in the morning, all the concubines came to the Queen Mother to greet the Queen Mother according to the custom, and the usual bustling Ci'an Palace became very lively, and the concubines gathered together to discuss hotly, without a restrained posture.

"The queen has been missing for more than five days, so I think it's less auspicious." It was Concubine Yan who said this, and after she looked around at everyone's expressions, she smiled knowingly.

At first, the concubines were afraid of the holy will, and most of them only dared to discuss it in private, and they didn't dare to say that the queen's assassination and disappearance were on the surface, but five days later, the emperor came to look for it and still had no whereabouts, and I am afraid that he would not be able to come back.

"There are many wolves under the Ling Mountain, maybe they have ......" A concubine pinched her handkerchief and spoke, and there was undisguised schadenfreude in her tone.

"I heard that the Ministry of Rites has prepared the queen's funeral and showed it to the emperor, but the emperor was furious and belittled many officials for this, right, Yu Meiren."

After one of the concubines finished speaking, she didn't forget to ridicule others again, the Yu beauty in her mouth, her father was the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and she was the first to blame for this question.

After Yu Meiren heard this, her face with a big slap face was extremely embarrassed, she endured the anger in her heart, and mocked, "Father just did his duty, and the concubine naturally hopes that the queen mother will be blessed and return safely." ”

When the words fell, it attracted a lot of laughter.

The concubines knew in their hearts that this was almost impossible.

also began to stammer Lin Guifei with his own cleverness.

"Concubine Lin is back in charge of the Six Palaces, and the concubines haven't had time to congratulate her."

Originally, the position of the queen belonged to Lin Guifei, her mother's family was powerful, everyone was beautiful, and she had the support of the queen mother's aunt, but the emperor looked away at the beginning and decided to be the queen with no foundation.

"It is said that life is very important, and those who are blessed with deep fortune have long blessings, and those who are blessed with thin fortune do not have this life even if they are in a high position." Yan Concubine's words were quite flattering.

alludes to the fact that Lin Guifei is the queen chosen by the destiny of heaven, and she has a phoenix destiny.

"You are serious, the queen has suffered this catastrophe, those of us who are concubines need to pray with incense every day, so that the Bodhisattva can bless the queen and mother."

Lin Yuewan spoke softly with a dignified and steady attitude, and as soon as her words came out, the restless concubines below became calm.

None of them have ever been favored, they have been in the palace for many years to continue the family, and they have self-knowledge in their hearts that they can't fight for the throne, and it is difficult to win the emperor's pity, but they are all from a big family, and they have indelible and innate pride in their bones.

How could they connive at the daughter of a lowly merchant from a small family and trample on the heads of everyone.

The queen is not wrong, she is tolerant, she has never criticized them, and she is at ease with her temperament, but her fault is that her existence is to slap the face of all the big families.

The Queen Mother came out of the inner hall and was greeted by the concubines.

"The mourning family has been unsettled and restless for the past few days, and needs to recuperate, so you can go back first."

The queen mother's calm voice sounded, choking everyone's words, and the concubines swallowed back the words that came to their mouths, and bowed and retreated playfully.

Ci'an Palace was suddenly empty, leaving Lin Yuewan sitting with her eyes down.

The Queen Mother was confident, and all the worries and worries in her heart these days were solved with the end of this matter, and she said slowly: "Yuewan, those people are doing very clean, she can't come back." ”

"In this way, all problems are not a problem."

When Lin Yuewan heard this, she rarely showed a smile on her face.

Yes, the emperor spent all his energy looking for the queen, and he didn't have the heart to ask about the government at all, so not only was what the third brother did completely covered, and no one would find out for a while, but he also prepared more time for the third brother's premeditated things.

What surprised everyone even more was that the emperor actually transferred most of the guards of the forbidden army who were responsible for the security of the palace.

Now this palace is like an empty shell, as long as the external force is lightly heaped, it can fall apart in an instant and come to naught.

The Empress Dowager's eyes contained a thick calculation, and after she pondered for a moment, she said, "Ling Er hasn't entered the palace for a long time to ask for peace from the mourning family, and I don't know what he's been busy with all day." ”

Lin Yuewan comprehended, and there was a lot of complaint in her tone when she spoke.

"His Royal Highness King Ling has never been close to women, and his surroundings are clean, but I don't know why recently, I stay in the palace wholeheartedly, and accompany the princess of the Shenbi Kingdom day and night, and the thrush is funny."

She lowered her eyes to hide the cruelty under her eyes, and the hand hidden under the sleeve was clenched tightly, and her heart was dripping blood with jealousy.

Brother Ling is the flower of Kaolin, an existence beyond her reach, but now she is fascinated by the princess of a small country, Si Yunxian is not worthy!

Although the Queen Mother was dissatisfied, she still suppressed the anger in her heart, and she couldn't refute Ling Er's intentions for a woman at this time.

"Go and pass it on, let Ling'er enter the palace for a trip, and the mourning family wants to see him."

Lin Yuewan became serious, biting her lip flap and hesitating, and after hesitating for a while, she asked, "Auntie, can you be sure of this matter?" ”

Before she was sure, she didn't want to drag Brother Ling into this troubled water.

After all, you only get one chance.
