Since the queen took the five elements powder that Zhu Shenchu threw in the snow lotus black chicken soup, her body was not abnormal, so the queen didn't pay much attention to it. Zhu Shenchu disappeared suddenly, and the queen thought that maybe he had something unspeakable to hide, so she chose to say goodbye.

For what Concubine Xiao said, she had to think carefully about it, and this sudden change made the queen a little restless and worried. After all, Zhu Shenchu has not yet been found, and the truth cannot be confirmed for a while.

At this moment, there is no abnormality in her body, what is the matter, and the queen can't completely rely on Concubine Xiao's words at this moment to cure Zhu Shenchu's crime. So the queen once again increased manpower to find the whereabouts of Zhu Shenchu. It is hoped that the matter will be investigated.

The only thing the queen can confide in in this deep palace is Concubine Hua at this moment. Concubine Hua's loyalty to herself was seen by the queen, so after Concubine Xiao left, she immediately sent someone to Kangning Palace to spread that Concubine Hua would immediately enter the palace to meet her.

After Yulan came to Kangning Palace, she entered the main hall of Kangning Palace, and immediately stepped forward to salute: "The slave has seen Concubine Hua." ”

Concubine Hua hurriedly got up, came to Yulan to help her up, and said, "Excuse me, Yulan came to see me in Kangning Palace at this moment, but the queen has an important message to convey?"

Yulan nodded and said: "Don't hide it from Concubine Hua, the queen does have important matters to discuss, so she sent a slave to come to Kangning Palace to invite Concubine Hua into the palace." ”

Concubine Hua suddenly said nervously: "But what happened in the palace? Yulan will take a break in front of the hall first, and I'll go change my clothes." immediately followed Yulan to meet the queen. ”

Yulan nodded, Concubine Hua turned around and left, and after the clothes were changed, Concubine Hua came to Qingning Palace with Yulan. When the queen saw Concubine Hua, she was overjoyed, hurriedly stepped forward, took Concubine Hua's hand and said, "Sister, hurry, sit down with the palace." ”

After the two sat down, Concubine Hua smiled, glanced at the queen and said, "Sister, why is it that you are in such a hurry to call your sister here?"

The queen held Concubine Hua's hand warmly, then raised her right hand and gently patted the back of Concubine Hua's hand and said, "Sister, don't be in a hurry, drink a cup of tea first, Rong Bengong slowly listened to my sister." ”

Then the queen turned around and glanced at Yulan who was standing beside her and said, "Yulan quickly made a cup of tea for the palace and Concubine Hua, and I chatted with Concubine Hua while drinking tea." ”

Magnolia gave a salute and said, "Yes."

The queen looked at Concubine Hua's nervous face and smiled: "Sister, don't worry, it's not a big deal for the palace to let my sister come to Ningxia Palace this time, I just want to chat with my sister, and my sister doesn't have to be so nervous." ”

Concubine Hua didn't change her anxious look, she leaned closer to the queen and said worriedly: "Sister, what happened in the palace?"

Seeing that Concubine Hua was so worried, the queen nodded and said, "Don't hide what my sister said, although nothing major happened in the palace, something quite strange happened. Speaking of this, the queen paused for a moment, and glanced at Concubine Hua with a somewhat depressed look.

Hearing this, Concubine Hua was even more anxious, and hurriedly said: "Sister, what happened strangely? Sister, don't let your sister figure it out anymore, why doesn't my sister finish speaking?"

The queen shook her head helplessly and sighed: "Alas! Today, Zhu Shenchu suddenly disappeared, and there is no one alive or dead. The palace sent people to search everywhere, and there has been no news so far. ”

Concubine Xiao came to Ningxia Palace to inform Zhu Shenchu that he had been bought by Guo Qiuyue and wanted him to poison the palace meals when Zhu Shenchu disappeared. As soon as Hongu took the Snow Lotus Black Chicken Soup cooked by Zhu Shenchu for Hongu, he disappeared. This matter is indeed a little puzzling to this palace. ”

"I specially invite Concubine Hua into the palace to analyze and analyze the palace and relieve the difficulty in the heart of the palace. ”

Concubine Hua was also puzzled after hearing this, Zhu Shenchu suddenly disappeared, it was indeed strange, as for him being bought by Guo Qiuyue, how did Concubine Xiao know, Concubine Hua was even more incomprehensible, Zhu Shenchu was recommended by Concubine Xiao.

She suddenly came to Qingning Palace to inform the queen of Zhu Shenchu's collusion with Guo Qiuyue's poisoning, what was her purpose. If Zhu Shenchu colluded with Guo Qiuyue, Concubine Xiao's move would show that she was indeed not in the same boat as Guo Qiuyue.

If Guo Qiuyue learned that Concubine Xiao took the initiative to tell the queen, causing Guo Qiuyue's conspiracy to fail to succeed, how could Concubine Xiao be forgiven. With Guo Qiuyue's ruthlessness, she had to do everything possible to put Concubine Xiao to death.

Concubine Xiao was able to risk death to come and tell the queen about such life-related matters, which really made Concubine Hua have some more trust in her. Although Zhu Shenchu was recommended by her, it was also for the sake of the queen's body.

Guo Qiuyue is insidious and cunning, don't say that Concubine Xiao will fall into her trap, even if she can't guard against Guo Qiuyue, it will inevitably let Guo Qiuyue take advantage of the loophole, so Concubine Hua did not suspect her because Concubine Xiao introduced Zhu Shenchu.

It's because she took the initiative to come to the whistleblower and trusted her more. Concubine Hua pondered for a moment and said, "Sister, have you ever tested the poison of the Snow Lotus Black Chicken Soup cooked by Zhu Shenchu today?"

The queen's face was calm, and she smiled slightly: "This palace is a critical period at the moment, so naturally I don't dare to slack off on meals. There was nothing abnormal in this soup, so the palace took all the soup that Zhu Shenchu finally cooked for the palace. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Hua didn't think much about it, and nodded reassuringly: "Since this is the case, my sister is relieved." It seems that Guo Qiuyue's conspiracy has not succeeded, Zhu Shenchu suddenly disappeared, perhaps his conspiracy with Guo Qiuyue was learned by Concubine Xiao, and she was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so she absconded in advance. ”

The queen nodded approvingly and said, "This palace also thinks so, but this palace can't convict Zhu Shenchu just because of Concubine Xiao's words." Everything pays attention to evidence, and I can't punish him arbitrarily until I find Zhu Shenchu. ”

"It's just that this Zhu Shenchu suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the palace was very puzzled, and the palace ordered someone to close the city gate and strictly investigate. It stands to reason that Zhu Shenchu couldn't escape from Chang'an City at all, so why is there no whereabouts for him so far. Could it be that he will not be able to escape from the ground?"

Concubine Hua knew that the queen was fine, and half of her worries disappeared, and she hurriedly comforted: "Sister don't worry, since my sister has ordered someone to close the city gate, Zhu Shenchu will definitely not be able to escape, and my sister will definitely have news when she waits." ”

The queen nodded and said, "If this is the case, we can only wait for good news." ”

At this time, Yulan came to the queen with a tea tray and said, "Queen, please use tea!" Then Yulan put the tea on several tables, and put another cup on Concubine Hua's side.

The queen waved her hand and said, "Let's go down!" Magnolia saluted, "Yes!"

At this time, the people sent out by the queen came back and reported: "Empress Qiyu, the subordinates have searched Chang'an City and have not found the whereabouts of Zhu Shenchu, and the subordinates are incapable of asking the queen to punish them." ”

The teacup that the queen picked up was put down again, and she didn't mean to blame him, she waved her hand and said, "Commander Yun, this palace doesn't blame you for this matter, how can you punish it." I wonder if Commander Yun has searched the palace?"

Yun Commander, named Yun Qingyang, is the right commander of the Royal Forest Army, this person is an upright person, deeply appreciated by the queen, and is now the queen's personal guard. Responsible for the safety of the Empress.

Dongsheng Kingdom has a special Governor's Mansion to be responsible for the security of the Imperial Palace. The supreme general of the Governor's Mansion is the president's leader, and there are three positions: the left commander and the right commander. The commander of the military is the commander of the left, and Yun Qingyang is the commander of the right.

The president's name is Yi Qianxiang, and he is now responsible for the security of the current Empress Dowager Jianing Palace, and the responsibilities of the generals at all levels of the Governor's Mansion were established by the founding emperor Shengdi, and have not changed after four dynasties.

Yun Qingyang hurriedly said: "In the harem under Empress Qiyu, except for the Empress Dowager's Jianing Palace, Concubine Guo's Yong'an Palace, Concubine Xiao's Ningxia Palace, and Concubine Hua's Kangning Palace, the other palaces have been searched and there is no whereabouts of Zhu Shenchu. ”

After hearing this, the queen muttered thoughtfully: "Could it be that Zhu Shenchu is hiding in Guo Qiuyue's bedroom?"

So the queen hurriedly said: "Commander Yun, quickly go to Yong'an Palace to search for the whereabouts of Zhu Shenchu with the decree of the palace, there must be no mistake." ”

Commander Yun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Yes!" Then he turned around and prepared to lead people to Yong'an Palace to search for Zhu Shenchu's whereabouts.

But Concubine Hua hurriedly approached the queen and said worriedly: "Sister, don't let Commander Yun go to Yong'an Palace with a knife." ”

The queen looked puzzled and said: "Why not? In the harem, the palace has the right to search, is it possible that Guo Qiuyue dares to openly oppose the palace Yizhi?"

Concubine Hua saw that Commander Yun was about to walk out of the hall, so she hurriedly leaned down and said, "Sister, I'm afraid that Your Majesty is in Yong'an Palace at this time, if Commander Yun suddenly brings his subordinate guards forward, Your Majesty will be guilty." With Your Majesty's temper, if you are angry with Commander Yun, I am afraid that I will be worried about my life!"

When the queen heard what Concubine Hua said, she was shocked. Only then did he feel that this matter was really inappropriate, so he hurriedly looked at Commander Yun, waved his hand and said, "Slow!"

As soon as Commander Yun heard this, he stopped when he stepped out, turned around and said with a puzzled expression: "Does the queen have any other orders?"

The queen got up and said: "It is inconvenient for Commander Yun to search Yong'an Palace at this time, you should retreat first, and then make a decision after the palace has seen His Majesty, retreat." ”

Cloud Commander Shi Li said, "Yes." ”

Then Yun Qingyang withdrew from the hall, waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

After Yun Qingyang left, the queen shook her head helplessly and sighed: "Alas! As the master of this harem, this palace does not even have the power to search the bedroom of a concubine, which is really sad! If Guo Qiuyue is not removed, I am afraid that this palace will not have the future." ”

Concubine Hua immediately got up and comforted: "Sister, don't be discouraged, just need to raise the fetus with peace of mind, and when the prince descends, it will be the day when my sister comes out." ”

The queen smiled and said, "I hope so, Concubine Hua is willing to accompany the palace to the back garden for a walk?

Concubine Hua stretched out her hand and said, "Sister, please." ”

The two walked out of the main hall one after the other, followed by several maids and servants. The group walked through the corridor to the back garden, when the sun was shining, the wind was beautiful, and the queen's mood was much better.

She didn't expect that she trusted Zhu Shenchu so much, but he betrayed herself for money, and she didn't know if such a thing would happen in the future, and whether Concubine Hua standing in front of her would also betray her in the future, the queen didn't know.

Now the construction of Shangyue Platform is supervised day and night, and I am afraid that it will not take much time. can be built, even if Concubine Hua does not betray her, she will not be able to count on her in the future. Without Concubine Hua, how to fight with Guo Qiuyue, the queen is also a little powerless at the moment.

Although the queen never mentioned Shang Yuetai, she was very aware of Concubine Hua's situation, although she was the mother of a country, she could not save Concubine Hua's life, Her Majesty's character she knew very well, and she would do what she said.

Let Concubine Hua ascend to heaven and take the moon, and she will not change her mind. She knew better the true intentions of His Majesty's move, so she couldn't stop it. This time she came to the back garden, on the one hand, the queen hoped that Concubine Hua could help her think of a way to search Yong'an Palace, and on the other hand, she would talk to Concubine Hua.

While enjoying the charming scenery of the back garden, the group walked through the rockery to the pavilion, looking at the clear and calm water of the lake. But there are layers of waves in the heart, and this deep palace is like this lake.

It seems to be calm, but it is already turbulent, and there are crises and blood everywhere. The queen lifted the hem of her skirt and sat down. Concubine Hua also sat next to her, and after sitting down, the queen said: "Concubine Hua, is there a way to search Yong'an Palace? Your Majesty is fascinated by Guo Qiuyue every day, is there really no way to search Yong'an Palace and capture Zhu Shenchu?"

Although the queen is not sure that Zhu Shenchu colluded with Guo Qiuyue, there is a chance that this matter is now over, so she hopes to find Zhu Shenchu's whereabouts as soon as possible so as to investigate the truth of the facts.

If Zhu Shenchu is really in Yong'an Palace, I am afraid that Guo Qiuyue's conspiracy will be exposed, but there is no news in Yong'an Palace at this moment, and Guo Qiuyue is not abnormal. This made the queen feel even more strange, only by finding Zhu Shenchu, everything would be solved.

But the queen knows that if Zhu Shenchu misses, with Guo Qiuyue's character, she will never let Zhu Shenchu fall into her hands, let alone let Zhu Shenchu tell about poisoning Longzi. It is very likely that Guo Qiuyue will kill people and destroy evidence.

So the queen was even more anxious about this, and Concubine Hua also knew the seriousness of this matter, and after thinking for a long time, she suddenly said: "Sister, I have a way, I can go to Yong'an Palace to search......
