However, there was still some hesitation on his face: "It's only the past two months?"

"With General Zheng here, we will be able to find medicinal materials again within two months." Li Dehai said with a smile, "Don't worry, Your Majesty! General Zheng's ability is not bad!"

Hearing this, the emperor nodded his head and agreed very much: "Indeed, Zheng Li is a useful talent, but it's a pity that he is still inferior to Xie Yan when it comes to marching and fighting."

"General Xie is also yours. With the two generals, General Xie and General Zheng, you can defend against the enemy externally and clean up those dishonest ministers internally. Wouldn't it be wonderful?"

Li Dehai's words just touched the emperor's heart, coaxing the emperor to smile: "Extremely! Extremly!"

The emperor considered himself a wise king, and he had never done anything harmful to the world over the years, so whenever Li Dehai spoke like this, he always thought that these people had succumbed to his charisma.

In this way, the smile on the emperor's face became even more obvious.

Chen Daochang glanced at the emperor's face, and said again: "Your Majesty, as well as what you said before...that matter, everything that should be prepared is almost ready. If you want to do it, Poor Dao can do it at any time." Draw out the soul of the late emperor for you."

Hearing the last sentence, the emperor's body trembled subconsciously.

For the first emperor, he still left some shadows.

After a while, the emperor showed vigilance, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?"

"Only by letting the late emperor see your determination can this matter be completely resolved." Chen Daochang sighed, "Just to let the late emperor feel your determination, the empress dowager's life may be..."

"It doesn't matter." The emperor said word by word, "The queen mother is dedicated to me, so she will definitely understand the choice I made."

Hearing the emperor's words, Li Dehai secretly sneered in his heart.

I am afraid that only the emperor can say such high-sounding words. You must know that the empress dowager and the emperor are in the same line of selfishness. As long as they can survive, they can do anything, even if they sacrifice their own mother or son.

The emperor pondered in his heart for a while, then suddenly asked: "I vaguely remember, it will be the birthday of the father soon?"

"The emperor is really filial!" Li Dehai said with emotion, "The birthday of the late emperor is one month later than yours, and counting the days, it will be the birthday of the late emperor in twenty days."

The emperor kept all Li Dehai's words in his heart, and after a little consideration, he came to a conclusion: "If this is the case, then this matter will be completely resolved on the day of the father's birthday!"

"Chen Daochang, all of this is entrusted to you!"

The emperor took a deep look at Chen Daochang.

And Chen Daochang still had that dusty fairy-like appearance, nodded slightly, and walked out.

Seeing Chen Daochang's actions, the emperor's eyebrows twitched suddenly.

He subconsciously looked at Li Dehai: "You said... will the queen mother bribe Chen Daochang?"

Hearing this, Li Dehai's pupils also constricted suddenly, and his voice trembled slightly: "This...the Empress Dowager shouldn't do such a thing..."

"That may not be the case." The emperor sneered, "My queen mother has always been cruel and merciless!"

"No matter who becomes the emperor, she will always be the most honorable woman in the harem. My son is not that important to her." The emperor's eyes were gloomy, and he said something that shocked Li Dehai, "Besides, I'm afraid she has already guessed what I'm thinking, and it's her style to act first!"

Li Dehai was shocked by what the emperor said.

He opened his mouth, was silent for a while, and then said cautiously: "Then why don't we clean up all the people in the empress dowager's palace?"

While talking, a eunuch hurried in.

His face was quite ugly, and when he saw the emperor, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty! Something is wrong!"

The emperor frowned, and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter of panic?"

"The empress dowager's side..." the eunuch hesitated to speak, and said in a trembling voice, "something has happened to the empress dowager's side!"

When the emperor heard this, his heart immediately sank, and he was thinking of using the Queen Mother's life to atone for his sins!Why did something happen to the Queen Mother at this juncture?

Just when the emperor's expression changed, he heard the eunuch shouting again: "Mother Lin, who is beside the empress dowager, came back after going out, and turned into a dead bone!"

"It was changed in front of the empress dowager! The empress dowager has already passed out now. Xiao Yuanzheng and the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital almost all rushed over, but no one can wake up the empress dowager!"

The eunuch's words made the emperor breathe a sigh of relief, but his pupils constricted again.

"What does it mean to become a dry bone?"

"It's that Nanny Lin was still a living person when she first came back, but in the blink of an eye, she turned into dry bones, as if... as if she had been sucked out of all her flesh and blood!"

After hearing this, the emperor suddenly thought of what Chen Daochang said.

He hastily squeezed his hands tightly, and said eagerly: "The queen mother is still awake?"

"The empress dowager seems to be in a nightmare, she can't wake up at all, and she is still talking nonsense!"

"What nonsense?"

The emperor asked very carefully, as if he was extremely worried about the queen mother.

The eunuch didn't dare to hide it, but seeing the emperor's face, he still stammered: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just something... It's just the empress dowager who keeps talking..."

"The first emperor came to seek her revenge!"

As if struck by lightning, the emperor stopped and swayed.

"So it is!" the emperor murmured, "Father will not let us go! He hates us so much!"

When the eunuch heard this suddenly, he wished he could block his ears so as not to hear such secrets.

The emperor didn't seem to notice that he was in front of him, and muttered to himself: "First it's me, and then it's the queen mother! The emperor is determined to torture us!"

Seeing the emperor's erratic expression and fear in his eyes, Li Dehai immediately said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry!"

"The soul of the first emperor obviously did not target you!"

"What's the meaning of this?"

The emperor's eyes immediately locked on Li Dehai.

"Think about it! As the most powerful eunuch by your side, this slave is still alive and well! It shows that the late emperor's hatred for you is far less than the hatred for the empress dowager!" Li Dehai said softly, "Young lady first, and then It's Nanny Lin, no matter how you look at it...it seems like the late emperor was deliberately torturing the empress dowager."

Hearing this, the emperor's terrified eyes just now became kinder at this moment.

He nodded slowly, and thoughtfully said: "Indeed, this is indeed like the style of my father!"

"If my father hated me, how could it be as simple as scaring me? It's like a way to deal with Mother Lin, which seems like something he would do!"

As the emperor spoke, the expression on his face became relaxed.

"That's right." The emperor patted Li Dehai's shoulder and praised, "Your words have awakened me."

"I don't dare to be a slave!" Li Dehai hastily smiled congratulatoryly, "From the point of view of a slave, your majesty is still smart, and you have figured out the key to this immediately!"

Tai listened to the conversation between the two, his eyes were particularly confused.

What ghost of the late emperor?What revenge?Could it be that the person who killed Nanny Lin was really a ghost?

"Then the empress dowager..." the eunuch asked cautiously, "but I still have to go to the imperial doctor..."

"Naturally, we will continue to invite imperial physicians!" The emperor said sternly, "We have to go to the folks to post notices to see if there are any folk genius doctors who are willing to help the empress!"

When the emperor said this, his eyes became brighter.

Li Dehai complimented at the side: "The emperor's filial piety is really moving!"

The eunuch stood aside, listening to what Li Dehai said, his eyes were confused.

As for Li Dehai, who was ordered to visit the Queen Mother, the smile on his face quickly faded after he left the emperor's sight.

As he walked along the long corridor, his eyes were full of fear.

At this time, Zheng Li stepped forward again.

"Eunuch Li." Zheng Li respected Li Dehai as always.

Li Dehai nodded slightly, and said to Zheng Li: "Think of a way to get the confidants around the Queen Mother to invite Daoist Chen."

Hearing this, Zheng Li was puzzled.

But Li Dehai didn't say much about this matter, he just warned: "The more concealed the better in the early stage, the later must let the emperor know about it!"

Zheng Li's expression was serious, and he answered immediately.

Since it was Li Dehai's order, there is no problem in following it.

……

Three days later, the queen mother woke up.

Various banquets outside the palace were held in full swing, each banquet had its own characteristics, and the most eye-catching one was the outing banquet.

Chunyu held an umbrella for Gu Ning, and took Gu Ning from the sunny path to the cool pavilion by the lake.

And Chu Shiling has been waiting here for a long time.

Seeing Gu Ning, her eyes suddenly filled with light: "You are here! I thought you would not come today!"

Hearing this, Gu Ning raised the corners of his lips and smiled at her: "Of course I want to come! It's such a big scene, it would be a loss if I don't come!"

Chu Shiling coughed lightly. Although her eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement, she still urged: "Keep a low profile! Don't be discovered by others!"

"Everything is done?" Gu Ning walked to Chu Shiling, looked Chu Shiling up and down, and pointed out, "Or are you going to improvise?"

"Of course I made preparations early." Chu Shiling snorted coldly, "You know Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Xu, right?"

"Coincidentally! Master Huang was still investigating the disappearance case in Beijing a few days ago, and there were twenty people missing in that case! They were all young men and women. Guess who Master Huang found?"

The tails of Gu Ning's peach blossom eyes are raised high, she can say the name of that person without guessing: "Gu Qingqiu?"

"Although it's not so accurate, it's almost the same!" Chu Shiling chuckled, "I learned from Mrs. Huang that this case of disappearance has been going around for a while, and it has something to do with Mr. Zhuang from the East Palace!"

"Does Master Huang have evidence?" Gu Ning asked.

Chu Shiling sighed, patted her thigh and regretted: "Of course there is no evidence! That person surnamed Zhuang should be cautious in his work. I heard that Mr. Huang stayed up all night for several days and failed to complete the evidence. Without evidence, of course he can't." Convict people easily!"

A smile flashed across Gu Ning's eyes: "It seems that Mr. Zhuang still has some skills."

"It's just pity for those who were captured by them." Chu Shiling said angrily, "I was only doing things for you before, but when I think that Gu Qingqiu might kill twenty people, I feel bad."

"What are the characteristics of those 20 people?"

"There are men and women, old and young." Chu Shiling shook his head, "There are no similar characteristics."

But these words fell into Gu Ning's ears, but they had the same characteristic - these people covered a wide range of ages, there were men and women, no matter how you looked at it, they looked like they were doing experiments!

A faint light flashed across Gu Ning's eyes, and she whispered something next to Chu Shiling's ear: "You find a way to pass this news to Mrs. Huang, just say..."

Gu Ning's voice was so soft that only Chu Shiling could hear it.

After listening to Gu Ning's words, her eyes suddenly widened: "Is this really going to be done? Mrs. Huang won't suspect you, right?"

"Don't worry." Gu Ning is very confident, "Madam Huang is so smart, a smart person will think too much, after knowing that I provided this information, she will definitely think that I intend to deal with Gu Qingqiu, but she is unwilling to show up .”

"And Mrs. Huang knows what Mr. Huang's responsibility is. Not only will she not care about my reluctance to show up, but she will take the initiative to cover it up for me, because in this way, Mr. Huang will be responsible for this matter alone."

Chu Shiling nodded slowly after listening to these words.
