Long Yu Bintian, since ancient times for the country's great mourning, but under normal circumstances, the emperor's illness and funeral will affect the ownership of power, and it will generally be kept secret before the overall situation is decided, not to mention that He Yan's critical illness happened suddenly, and before his death, he did not have time to draw up a will, and the indispensable national seal on the edict is still missing, this series of changes made the queen mother quite at a loss, and naturally did not care about the funeral at this time.

The night was still deep, the hall was becoming more and more silent, and the Empress Dowager Wei didn't even care about the princes of the clan who had gathered in the east side hall, at this time, her Tie Qing face was gloomy, and she looked at Lu Li, who knelt down and didn't know anything about the whereabouts of the national seal, and the fist on the knee case clenched fiercely, and she didn't speak for two moments.

It is normal that the Son of Heaven will not hand over the national seal to Lu Li for safekeeping, because the Queen Mother is sure that He Yan does not really trust her, and what she suspects now is that the national seal has been entrusted to He Ye by He Yan, if this is the case...... It shows that He Yan's hope for He Ye is not as hopeful for peace as he said earlier, then Xue Luli and even Liu Shiniang's confessions are not true, which means that the Queen Mother must kill more people if she wants to stabilize the situation today, she never bothered about killing, but she must consider how to offend people as a matter of course, and she must worry about how to deal with the aftermath after killing.

Don't look at most of the guards in her hands at this time, but if you are not careful, you may still lose the whole game.

And at this moment, the Queen Mother suddenly thought that she still had a small internal response, so she immediately summoned Eleven Niang to enter.

Fortunately, Eleven Niang didn't know anything, she at least provided important clues to the whereabouts of the national seal.

The concubine knows.

In fact, when the Queen Mother had not forced the palace two days ago, she did hear the concubine talk about worrying that the Son of Heaven would not wake up, and in a drowsy manner, the Empress Dowager Wei would inevitably pretend to be an edict, so the concubine took it upon herself to hide the national seal somewhere, and told the eleventh mother that if the situation was really worried about her development, she might as well tell the truth to the queen mother. Therefore, at this time, he cooperated with the concubine's plan.

It's just that of course Eleven Niang will hide the matter of the concubine's own assertions, claiming that the Son of Heaven handed over the national seal to the concubine for temporary custody because he was worried about falling asleep.

The whereabouts of the national seal fell on the concubine, the queen mother will not be suspicious again, she knows that He Yan has always trusted the concubine, and is very worried about the eunuchs in the palace around her, when she was seriously ill, since there was an order to ban the Zichen Palace, of course, she was not worried that the national seal was unattended, the most critical point is that the concubine has no children, and she is unable to communicate with the ministers, even if she holds the national seal, there is no way to make waves, He Yan entrusted the concubine to take care of it temporarily just in case, not entirely to prevent her biological mother, Otherwise, wouldn't it be more appropriate to simply hand it over to He Ye or even draw up an edict?

But the successive accidents have made the Queen Mother more vigilant, she does not fully trust Shi Niang's words at this time, so although Shi Niang took the initiative to go to the Zilan Hall to persuade the concubine to focus on the overall situation, the Queen Mother still declined Shi Niang's plea in a kind tone after several hesitations: "I know that you are worried that your aunt is stubborn and refuses to give in at this moment, but the stakes are very high, and it is harmful to involve you too deeply." ”

The task of persuading the concubine naturally fell on the shoulders of Dou Fu'an, who was already eager to try, as the queen mother's real confidant, this of course understands that persuading the concubine is secondary, and the important thing is to prove whether Shi Niang's words are true, and whether the Son of Heaven really entrusted the national seal to the concubine, and the king of Jin has no idea.

Two days ago, since the concubine was placed under house arrest in the Zilan Palace, the palace eunuchs who originally served were completely replaced, and Dou Fu'an even came to interrogate on the orders of the Queen Mother to verify whether the confessions of Eleven Niang and Lu Li were true, but the concubine was unwilling to cooperate at all, and reprimanded Dou Fu'an with a strong voice, and resolutely refused to tell what she had heard and witnessed in the Zichen Palace.

At this time, although it was late at night, the concubine did not rest, the hall was full of brilliant lights, but she closed the door and refused to allow the palace people to enter the dormitory, and sat alone in front of the desk, looking calm.

Fingertips gently caressed the gold embroidery on the skirt, it was her beloved orchid, and she couldn't help but think of the time when she planted her beloved plants under the blue screen window when she was in the boudoir, which made people miss being very carefree, but the woman who was beautiful back then even felt extremely strange.

I have long forgotten those relaxed and pleasant, sweet years.

It's not worth cherishing, it's just too cherished to look back.

And this night, why are you willing to revisit them one by one? The moonlit night, the screen window, those girls' hearts and minds.

Later, he couldn't help himself step by step, humiliated and embarrassed day by day, and disheartened at the age of one.

Now people are not old, their temples are still black, but their hearts are aging early.

In the deep palace, this night's longing is piercing, her mother and younger brother want to see them again, hugging their heads and crying or talking and laughing without scruples, this regretful and incomplete life may be able to reduce the sadness a little.

Thinking about it, my eyes soured, but how can the lonely crying offset this bitterness?

is hurting himself, but the door of the palace is suddenly opened, the arrogant eunuch sneered inside, Dou Fu'an, who has not been scolded by the concubine for a long time, does not remember the humiliation two days ago, and then looks at the concubine's gaze as if he is looking at a dying person, especially when he is drunk with "roll", the resentment in the eunuch's chest is difficult to press.

"This time, I can't help the concubine to disobey the order, I came to interrogate by the order of the Queen Mother, the concubine should know what she wants, don't toast and don't eat and drink, the hidden things of the concubine are better handed over."

Dou Fu'an's words were vague, but the concubine's heart was very clear, but although she thought that since the incident had happened, she was only afraid that the Son of Heaven would already be in the sky, but she still sneered back as if she had no fear: "I do know where the national seal is, but there is no imperial decree, and you want to win the gold treasure with just one eunuch, Dou Fu'an, don't you want to rebel?" ”

Unexpectedly, until this time, I thought that there was a son of heaven to support her, and others were helpless to take her? Dou Fu'an sneered: "The saint has left a testament, and the queen mother is in charge of the government, and the queen mother has an order, if the concubine does not obey the order, she will be punished for rebellion!" Don't you think that with the national seal in hand, you can violate the order? I kindly reminded that even if the concubine was ordered to die, as long as the king of Jin was tortured, the whereabouts of the national seal could be discovered, and the concubine should think twice...... In the end, the Queen Mother is willing to give the concubine a chance to change her ways, the concubine only needs to obey the order, and the future will be as glorious as before, so why bother to die ......"

"Testament...... How dare you ......"

Seeing that the concubine was already flustered but inward-looking, Dou Fu was proud but finally knelt on the ground: "The saint is already in the sky." ”

Brother, you are finally free......

Dou Fu'an, who was prostrate and pretending, missed the corner of the concubine's lips.

"The national seal is my personal collection, how does the king of Jin know his whereabouts? If the Queen Mother really has the Holy Decree to imprison the country, why should she send you to threaten and lure! Just a eunuch, what qualifications do you have to shout in front of me, if you want to get the national seal and make the world surrender, you have to come forward in person, and there is, I will never believe that the Holy One is already ...... It must be you, a eunuch, who cursed the Holy Monarch with evil intentions, Dou Fu'an, you are really bold! ”

She didn't tell her words through, but the concubine took the initiative to admit that she had hidden the national seal, thinking that she would have a gold medal for avoiding death, of course, knowing that King Jin didn't know the whereabouts of the national seal. The purpose of Dou Fu'an's trip has been achieved, and he didn't think that he could really force the concubine to compromise by himself, especially when he saw that the concubine refused to believe that the Son of Heaven was already in the sky, and he became more and more convinced that this woman was unwilling to resist stubbornly: "The concubine disobeyed the order and rebelled against the Queen Mother, it seems that she is really mad." ”

A few sneers, brushing their sleeves away!

Dou Fu'an firmly believes that the reason why the concubine is so arrogant is nothing more than to exchange this "death-free gold medal" for future honor, but after he fanned the flames when he returned to his life, the queen mother, who had a grudge against the concubine, would be more and more annoyed by her arrogance, even if she was temporarily appeased, when she knew the whereabouts of the national seal and stabilized the overall situation, how could she allow the concubine to continue to be domineering? When the time comes, a cup of poisoned wine will give death, and it is reasonable to announce to the public that the concubine died of depression because of Long Yubintian.

Liu, this is the tragic price you pay for calling me a eunuch slave, Dou Fu'an is hideous and insidious.
