The majestic sister-in-law of the Red Chamber

Chapter 122 Secret Talk of the Empress

Inside the imperial palace, in the Tai Chi Hall, the Emperor Situ Qing and the Empress were sitting there at the moment, listening with livid faces to the mother in charge of the beautiful women in the Chuxiu Palace telling what happened in the square in front of the Tai Chi Hall just now.

"Hmph! What a good trick! Even the empress dowager can use it! I underestimated them before! Everyone doesn't know how to serve the country and benefit the people, but they are so skillful in using such small tricks. This is the minister of the imperial court, good, really good!" The emperor almost lost his composure under the extreme anger.

On the other hand, although the Queen's face was solemn at the moment, she was not dazzled by anger, but asked calmly: "Are you sure it is the order of the Empress Dowager to bring all the beautiful women to the Tai Chi Hall for the Emperor to review in advance?" of?"

"The servant is very sure! Because the one who came to pass the decree is the big maid next to the empress dowager! Not only the maids serving in the Chuxiu Palace have seen it, but many of the beautiful ladies have also seen it! It is because of this that the servant does not Dare to delay, let them change their clothes, and then bring all of them here! I don’t know why the lady of Duke Qi’s mansion suddenly rushed towards His Royal Highness Prince Zhongshun like that!”

The nanny of Chuxiu Palace said calmly, she had already understood that the matter this time was probably a bureaucracy, and she was also a part of someone's scheme. At this moment, she could only earn by biting the empress dowager tightly. A chance to survive, after all, facing the empress dowager's edict, she has no room to resist, right?

"Why did the empress dowager issue such a strange decree? You must know that the selection of the hall is always carried out early in the morning, and the location will not be the Taiji Hall! Do you have any doubts about this? Didn't you ask the person who delivered the decree? ?” the queen continued to ask.

"Going back to Empress Empress, the servant girl asked, but the grand maid who delivered the decree said that she didn't know the specific situation, and she just kept urging the servant girl to hurry up and not waste time!

Moreover, at that time, many people in the show girls heard it and kept urging them, so the slaves didn't ask more questions.Besides, that is the Queen Mother's order, and the slaves dare not question it! "Mammy knelt on the ground and responded calmly.

"Okay, you go to Chuxiu Palace to watch those beautiful women first! I will let the guards strictly guard outside! Remember, from this moment on, unless I personally make an order, and it is a handwritten order! Otherwise! No matter whether it is a court lady or a beautiful lady, no one is allowed to step out of the Chuxiu Palace! Otherwise, they will be punished as disobedience to the imperial decree!" After the emperor finished speaking indifferently, he waved away the nurse in charge.

It wasn't until all the servants in the hall were sent out that the emperor looked solemnly at the queen beside him, and said in a low voice:

"Queen, are you saying that the queen mother really meant this? Although, I know that the queen mother wants to betroth that little girl from Jing'an Duke's mansion to Xiao Shiwu, but it's not that that girl is not qualified for the draft, and she is not in these shows. Girls?

Why did she make such a nondescript drama?Especially the young lady of Duke Qi's mansion, how could it be such a coincidence at this time, they met Xiao Shiwu just after they arrived, and what purpose did she have, in front of so many people, she went directly to Xiao Shiwu Pounce on it!This is also a bit too shameless!

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the queen mother will arrange it!Moreover, I chose such a time in such a hurry, no matter how I think about it, I feel that there are many problems in it! "

"Your majesty, don't be in a hurry! The concubine has already sent someone to ask the empress dowager, and the concubine and the emperor want to go together!

No matter how you look at it, this matter does not seem to be done by the empress dowager. This time, it is obvious that these beautiful women came to block Prince Zhongshun, or in other words, some unexpected situation happened, so they had to take risks and rashly act!But what happened? "The queen said a little strangely.

"Is there an emergency?" The emperor muttered a few words in a low voice, his eyes couldn't help looking at the servants waiting outside the door, and his eyes were constantly flickering.

At this moment, he remembered that if something big was going to happen, it could only be that Xiao Shiwu came to the palace to tell him that the Death Squad was going to arrest Qi Guogong!However, from when Situ Meng entered the palace to when he was blocked by Xiunu on the square outside, the whole time was only about an hour. Those who can make these arrangements are definitely not outside the palace. If they are inside the palace People, then, apart from the Empress Dowager, only Concubine Zhen Taigui has this ability!

'But, the Empress Dowager?Or Concubine Zhen? 'The emperor's mind was at a loss for a while, because as far as he knew, these two natal families were closely related to the Duke of Qi's mansion!The suspicion about the empress dowager that was about to be dispelled came to my mind again.

One must know that the current empress dowager is not the unfavorable empress dowager who was always cautious at all times and was always afraid that if she made a wrong step, she would lose her position in the middle palace.

After all, there have always been only deposed queens, but she has never heard of a deposed empress dowager. The recent peace of mind has made her heart swell out of control.

Because even if she was doing too much, the emperor would have to wipe her ass and clean up the mess that followed. Thinking of this, the emperor felt irritated for a while.

"Queen, I originally wanted to go to your palace to tell you, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen!" The emperor sat beside the queen, gently held her hand, and said calmly: "The Duke of Qi colluded with the kings of Xining County, Nan'an County, and Dongping County with different surnames. They were all behind the big case of official salt being smuggled before!

And this Qi Guogong is one of the eyeliners and internal contacts of these different surname kings in the capital. Although it is not possible to directly attack these different surname kings, it is necessary to cut off their wings in the court!

Just now, Xiao Shiwu came to me to tell me that he had already collected all kinds of criminal evidence from Duke Qi's mansion, and he planned to arrest people directly tonight or tomorrow!

Regarding the details of the arrest, he told me in detail. After all, there are still many places where I need to help him guard and sit in the township. Moreover, the daughter of Duke Qi's mansion who participated in the draft is still in the palace, and the queen needs to deal with it.

However, I never expected that this news would be known in advance before Xiao Shiwu left the palace!You said, is my palace too unsafe?Or did Xiao Shiwu accidentally discover the clue when they sent people to investigate secretly?

Otherwise, why was the young lady of Duke Qi's mansion so excited when she saw him, and even rushed towards him?It's a pity that this little guy doesn't know how to be sympathetic to others, so he just kicked him unconscious. Otherwise, what useful information could he have asked!

Alas, still too young and vigorous!Seeing the way he dragged the little girl of the Lin family away angrily, I don't need to guess. Once he goes back, he will definitely lead someone to kill him to the Duke of Qi's mansion. He will definitely not let this matter stay overnight. The aristocratic families and dignitaries in the capital don't want to sleep well! "

When the emperor said this, he felt his head swell. At this moment, a cold and delicate hand gently massaged his head, which made him feel much more comfortable in an instant. It's a little clearer than before.

"Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that Prince Zhongshun is right to do this! Don't forget that the young lady of Duke Qi's mansion is different from other beautiful girls. She has already been selected to enter the palace this time." one!"

While massaging the emperor's head, the queen continued: "Didn't you tell the concubine before the re-election? It was the emperor's intention that you choose another daughter from a family of four princes and eight princes to enter the harem. The most suitable one is only the young lady of Duke Qi's mansion!

It's just that you said that you want to suppress her status, you can't give the first palace lord, let her be like that Jia Yuanchun, first give the status of a nobleman!Have you forgotten all this?

If Prince Zhongshun hadn't kicked her away directly just now, and had really let her jump on him, then the ridiculous rumors of your brothers competing for a beauty would spread quickly all over the capital if the man and the woman can't kiss each other at that time!These words are really easy to say, but God knows that both of you hate her so much!

Fortunately, she was completely knocked out by that kick just now, otherwise it would be too bad if she was allowed to say something!The concubine has already ordered her to be locked up alone, to ensure that no one can get close to her. Similarly, she has also prepared a pair of dumb drugs, and I will wait for the emperor to send someone to pour her down after the interrogation!

You can't let her speak indiscriminately to ruin the bond between you brothers!For such an inexplicable woman, it would be a great sin if there was a gap between the two of you brothers! "

"Hehe..." The emperor smiled, gently grabbed the queen's hand that was still on his head, then gently embraced her in his arms, and said in a low voice:

"Queen, don't worry! Although I dare not say that Xiao Shiwu and I will be as single-minded as when I was a child, at least we brothers will never have any conflicts when it comes to women's affairs!

Because, in Xiao Shiwu's eyes and heart, there is only that little girl from the Lin family!No matter what happens in this life, he will never have a second woman again!

And I, also only have you in my heart!If I didn't sit in this position, for the sake of the royal family's prosperity and the balance of all aspects of the court, I don't want those Yingying and Yanyan, it's annoying to watch, and dealing with them is no worse than being in the court. Easy for those cunning old foxes!

In this harem, the only one I can absolutely trust is the empress!Only if you help me take care of everything in the harem, will I have no worries! "
