I really dare not mess with the Queen Mother

One update:

Because the general made such a fuss, someone immediately reported it to Emperor Yuan Qi.

The rain from the sky was crackling and falling, and the wind and rain suddenly fell. Emperor Yuan Qi didn't arrive, but the third and seventh princes did.

The third prince and the seventh prince were standing by the side watching the play just now, so why didn't they know what happened? They thought they could take the opportunity to make Qin Zhao feel embarrassed, but they killed a queen empress out of it.

The third prince glanced at the ground, and during the entanglement just now, the jade pendant on Qin Zhao's body fell to the ground.

The third prince took the initiative to pick up Qin Zhao's jade pendant from the ground, handed it to her, and said with a smile: "What makes the sixth brother so angry? Don't get angry, calm down."

Qin Zhao took the jade pendant and sneered, "I can't get over my anger!"

The Seventh Prince snorted coldly: "What's the matter? Are you finished?"

The third prince cared about Gu Junran's presence, even if Gu Junran didn't make a sound, he had to be cautious, and persuaded: "Alright, sixth brother, don't make a fuss, it won't be good for the emperor to come."

With an attitude of calming down the matter, the third prince waved his hand, making all the surrounding guards back down.

When General Sun saw the third prince's attitude, he reacted instantly, and immediately bravely walked to the third prince's side. He took out a waist card from his waist, pulled the third prince aside, and whispered to the third prince: "The last general is Northwest General Sun Dingtian. Concubine Su Chen asked His Highness's cousin to find a job in the army. The last general has always kept this matter in mind."

The third prince couldn't understand the meaning of his words, he took the token, confirmed his identity, then turned his head to look at Gu Junran, still hesitating.

Sun Dingtian added: "I don't know the identity of the sixth prince. It was he who took the initiative to talk to me just now, and I..."

The third prince paused, even though he knew that he was talking nonsense, but when he mentioned his mother and concubine, he still nodded and said, "My Highness will deal with it."

Upon hearing this, Sun Dingtian immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Qin Zhao couldn't hear what they were muttering clearly, but Gu Junran listened.

The expression on Gu Junran's face was still cold and indifferent, but there was an inexplicable coldness in his eyes.

The third prince approached Qin Zhao two steps, and wanted to raise his hand to pat her on the shoulder, but Qin Zhao turned his head and avoided it.

The third prince was not embarrassed, and said with a smile: "You got the sixth brother, the rain in the sky is about to fall heavily, and you were shocked again, why don't you go back first?"

Qin Zhao narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but suspect the third prince's intentions.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Gu Junran, and Gu Junran also looked at her without making a sound, as if he was staying out of the matter.

"Don't!" Qin Zhao looked at the general and sneered, "Let's settle things first before leaving."

The third prince frowned and said impatiently, "What's wrong with you?"

Qin Zhao swung the jade pendant forward: "My jade was broken by him, what's wrong?"

"What's the big deal?" The third prince smiled and asked Sun Dingtian: "General Sun, you broke the jade of His Highness the Sixth Highness, and you will pay ten yuan and send it to his bedroom, remember?"

Sun Dingtian responded immediately: "Yes, the general will remember."

Qin Zhao's breath was stuffed in her chest, and she laughed angrily, so did the third prince make it clear that he wanted to help Sun Dingtian get ahead?

Only talk about compensation for Yupei, but don't mention Sun Dingtian's wretched things?

A dignified general, why are you acting like a bandit?She has really learned a lot today.

And the meaning of the third prince is clear, that is, he is saying that they have compensated you, what else do you want?

Moral kidnapping?

Qin Zhao: "..."

She gritted her teeth and turned to look at Gu Junran.

Gu Junran looked at her, very calm and calm.

Looking at each other, Qin Zhao almost thought that Gu Junran had already made a decision, and nodded to her.

And she had a confident expression on her face, and inexplicably, her originally ups and downs calmed down in an instant.

At this moment, a fat eunuch suddenly rushed over not far away, and when he ran close, Qin Zhao could see clearly that at this moment, the chief eunuch beside Emperor Yuan Qi, Zhao Dewang.

Because he ran in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to open an umbrella, he carried the rain all over his body, ran to Gu Junran at the first time, and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, damn it, you're late."

Gu Junran frowned, and said impatiently, "Yes."

"I heard about you just now..." He looked at Qin Zhao, and immediately said: "Damn you, the sixth prince, you have been wronged. Your Majesty asked the servant to come and see you and ask if you are okay?"

Qin Zhao replied hesitantly, and said, "I'm fine, but suddenly I feel uncomfortable, and my heart hurts."

She said, grabbing her heart with one hand, and said to Zhao Dewang: "This general, he wanted to force me when he came here just now. I was beaten and kicked by him, and now my body hurts everywhere..."

Zhao Dewang: "!!!"

Sun Dingtian: "???"

Zhao Dewang immediately said: "Yes, yes, Your Highness Sixth Highness, you have been wronged. Your Majesty sent the servant here for this reason. How is your health now? Are you okay?"

Qin Zhao didn't care about the dirt on the ground, so she fell directly on the ground, lying on the muddy ground, and said to Zhao Dewang: "Can you tell Father Emperor that I may not be able to serve him in front of him in the future. I was kicked by him, and my internal organs seemed to be violent in an instant."

Zhao Dewang quickly ordered the guards who came behind, and said in a cold voice: "Come on, take him for our family! Hand it over to Your Majesty!"

Sun Dingtian was detained and taken away by Zhao Dewang, and the third and seventh princes also followed.

After everyone walked away, Gu Junran looked at her lying on the ground, and said with a smile: "Everyone is gone, stop pretending."

Qin Zhao turned over and stood up from the ground, and said with a smile, "The ground is really dirty."

Gu Junran asked her, "Go back and rest?"

Qin Zhao nodded immediately: "Hui, I'm injured, so it doesn't matter even if I don't participate in this so-called night hunt?"

Gu Junran smiled: "Well, let's go."

Knowing that Gu Junran took Qin Zhao away, the third prince came out from behind the big tree.

He looked at Gu Junran's eyes with an unclear expression, and was really surprised.

He really didn't believe that Gu Junran would help Qin Zhao, just now he had sent someone to stop the person who was going to report to Emperor Yuan Qi, originally this matter would definitely not reach the ears of Emperor Yuan Qi.

Unexpectedly, this time it was Zhao Dewang, who was beside Emperor Yuan Qi, who came here in person. This must have been ordered by His Majesty. According to Zhao Dewang, I am afraid that Gu Junran sent someone over again.

Qin Shou always thought that even if Gu Junran was a queen, he should be on his side.

The mother concubine once told him that she had been kind to Gu Junran, so even if Gu Junran was a queen, she would do her best to support him to the throne.

For a long period of time before Qin Zhao appeared, Gu Junran did indeed do this, but since Qin Zhao was brought back from his hometown in Danzhou, Gu Junran began to help Qin Zhao.

Gu Junran actually liked Qin Zhao?Then what is her intention?

That's Qin Zhao, a waste, a waste who grew up in the countryside.

But there are some things that he has to think about. Although Gu Junran has been reclusive all these years and has never cared about court affairs except in charge of the harem, he is still highly valued by his father. If Gu Junran is partial to Qin Zhao, how should he deal with himself?

……

Qin Zhao went back to the tent, Gu Junran only sent her to the tent entrance, Qin Zhao asked someone to give her an umbrella, and went back to the tent to lie down, while the ten princesses sat on the small bench, looking a little shocked.

She was pretending to be beaten just now, and she always looked limping in front of people, but her ankle was sprained, and she couldn't walk easily without pretending.

But once I got back to the tent, probably because of the rain, I felt a little dizzy and groggy.

If it wasn't for the rain outside, causing the smooth air to refresh her mind, she wondered if she was about to pass out.

This was really an unpleasant outing experience. It turned out that hunting was so troublesome. She had long said that she didn't want to come or not, but she was forced to come.

She lay on the bed moaning, Xiao Shengzi came in from the outside, holding a basin of hot water: "Your Highness, wash your face first?"

Qin Zhao's outer robe has been taken off, leaving only a white inner robe, wrapped in a quilt and kicking his legs: "Ah... annoying."

Xiao Shengzi: "???"

Xiao Shengzi paused, and then said to Qin Zhao, "Are you worried about General Sun Dingtian?"

Qin Zhao shook his head, but said nothing.

Xiao Shengzi continued: "Your Highness, I heard that General Sun was spared by His Majesty and only beat him with ten sticks."

Qin Zhao frowned, lifted the quilt and sat up on the bed: "What do you mean?"

Xiao Shengzi hesitated, and continued: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's because General Sun just came back from the Northwest, and he wants to make a big problem into a small one. Besides, you have nothing to do."

Qin Zhao: "..."

Xiao Shengzi said again: "My master just sent someone to tell me that His Majesty also has His Majesty's difficulties, please be considerate of him."

Qin Zhao sneered: "Ang, I understand him, of course I must understand him."

Xiao Shengzi paused, then asked again: "Then what do you want to eat?"

Qin Zhao waved his hand, looked at the tenth princess who was sitting quietly, and said, "Prepare her a bowl of hot goat's milk first, it was raining just now, and her mother and concubine are not here, so she won't catch a cold."

Xiao Shengzi replied: "Yes, I will do it now, my servant."

Two more:

As soon as Qin Zhao woke up, the sky outside had completely brightened, the rain had stopped, and the tenth princess had left at some point, but she actually slept until dawn, and her throat was still a little rough when she woke up.

When she got out of the tent, her body was sore and tired, and she stretched herself, only to feel that there were suddenly more soldiers outside the tent.

She was about to go out for activities, but was stopped by two soldiers: "Your Highness Sixth, please stay in the tent!"

Those two people stood in front of her with knives, making Qin Zhao stunned: "What do you mean?"

A soldier answered, "The third prince has an order to track down the assassin, and no one can come in or out!"

Qin Zhao was stunned: "Looking for the assassin? Where did the assassin come from, and who did he assassinate?"

No one answered.

Qin Zhao couldn't help being dazed. Who was assassinated in such a big battle?

Could it be...

Thinking of this, she unconsciously walked back to the tent, and after a while, there was a sudden noise outside.

Qin Zhao got up and went to the tent again, and saw that Xiao Shengzi was coming in with a tray of food.

It may be that the gatekeeper refused to let in, so Xiao Shengzi kept negotiating with people there.

Qin Zhao asked him, "What's the situation?"

Xiao Shengzi said aggrievedly: "Your Highness, the villain is afraid that you will starve to death and your health is not good, but they won't let the servants in."

Qin Zhao waved his hand and ordered, "Let him go."

The two soldiers were as motionless as a mountain.

Qin Zhao narrowed his eyes: "You don't want me to tell the empress about you, do you?"

When Qin Zhao moved out of Gu Junran, they looked at each other hesitantly and could only let him go.

As soon as Xiao Shengzi came in, he put down the tray and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, something happened!"

Qin Zhao asked him, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Shengzi said straightaway: "It rained heavily last night. Your Majesty was originally checking on the princes to hunt, but for some reason, the people behind him all dispersed, and the accompanying guards couldn't see them. The tiger that rushed out was frightened, and then met the assassin."

The tone in Qin Zhao's heart suddenly lifted: "How is his body?"

Xiao Shengzi shook his head: "I don't know, I only know that when I got it back, there was a feathered arrow stuck in my back, and the imperial physician was announced to go in, and the maidservants brought out pots of blood."

Qin Zhao was startled.

what's the situation?

This is too coincidental.

She asked instinctively, "Where is the empress?"

Xiao Shengzi was taken aback, and immediately said: "The Empress was with His Majesty last night, this..."

He hesitated to speak, but Qin Zhao asked, "Speak!"

"Yes! The Empress Dowager was arguing with His Majesty last night. Many people saw it. Then Her Majesty was assassinated. Now the Empress Empress is serving in front of His Majesty. Your Majesty said that no one was there except the Empress Empress. But there are rumors below that it is true. The empress quarreled with His Majesty because of you."

Qin Zhao: "..."

When Xiao Shengzi said that, he was probably saving face for the "Queen".

The following rumors are probably not about the quarrel between the Empress and Emperor Yuan Qi, it is very likely that the empress had a quarrel with her majesty, and then assassinated.

Qin Zhao asked, "Has the assassin been found?"

Xiao Shengzi shook his head: "Not yet, but the third prince has mobilized the accompanying guards and the people stationed in the paddock, saying that the assassin must be caught no matter what."

Qin Zhao thought for a while, then came back to her senses, she turned around to wash her face, and after rinsing her mouth, she casually picked up a piece of pastry.

After sending it to the mouth, the uncomfortable feeling in the stomach faded a little.

At this time, someone outside the account suddenly said: "Your Highness Sixth, Your Majesty has an order to return to the palace immediately."

Qin Zhao paused, and returned to the palace?

Are you going back to the palace now?

Qin Zhao thought of something, and immediately asked Xiao Shengzi, "Where is the tenth princess?"

Xiao Shengzi was dumbfounded by her question, and he didn't understand why she suddenly asked the tenth princess for no reason.

Xiao Shengzi said in a deep voice: "Return to Your Highness, the tenth princess is fine, and she is being looked after by the empress. The servant saw you fell asleep last night, so I sent her back."

Qin Zhao's mind suddenly became chaotic.

The original plot is that the tenth princess died during the hunt, and this time the tenth princess was fine, perhaps because she didn't go hunting with Emperor Yuan Qi at night, and stayed with her all the time.

Emperor Yuan Qi always loved the ten princesses. If the ten princesses went hunting with Emperor Yuan Qi at night, would the feathered arrow that was shot at Emperor Yuan Qi's back be shot at the ten princesses?

If so, then everything seems to be on the right track.

Qin Zhao responded, and said to the outside account: "Okay, I will send someone to prepare."

After hearing what she said, Xiao Shengzi began to prepare.

Qin Zhao sat down by the bed, tapped his chin with his index finger, and began to think about who gave the order to return to the palace.

Gu Junran, or Emperor Yuanqi?

How is Emperor Yuan Qi now? Is he still alive?

He is not in good health, and she always coughs when she hears him, and seems to narrow his eyes when looking at people. It is often Zhao Dewang who reminds him, so that he can find the location accurately.

He still takes those deceptive pills all the time, and his health has deteriorated to that level.

If he was seriously injured this time and could kill him, what would happen next?

Emperor Yuan Qi will pass on the throne to the third prince, and the third prince will hold a high position. Gu Junran will become a legitimate queen mother because of supporting the third prince to ascend the throne.

But the plot has changed.

Because of her appearance, the plot has changed, and the relationship between her and Gu Junran has eased, and it can even be said to be very good.

Gu Junran did not follow the original plot and supported the third prince Qin Shou to ascend the throne in various ways, but instead expressed dislike for him in various ways.

In addition, this time, according to the following rumors, Gu Junran had a conflict with Emperor Yuan Qi because of her, and had the motive of assassinating him.

If Emperor Yuan Qi died, then both she and Gu Junran would face a dangerous situation.

In her heart, she only hoped that Emperor Yuan Qi would hold on and that nothing would happen.

Just as she was thinking wildly, there was another urging sound from outside. It was someone asking her if she had packed up.

Qin Zhao responded, "It's fine."

She felt that she should find a chance to see Gu Junran. She could open the tent, and there were a dozen soldiers holding knives standing outside.

They respectfully and forcefully urged her to get on the carriage, but Qin Zhao could only comply.

The carriage bumped along the way, and Qin Zhao's heart was also up and down.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced at the back, the empress's carriage was not far behind.

She casually picked up a miscellaneous book that she used to read, opened it and read two pages, lost interest, and could only put it down.

Along the way, she used various excuses several times to see Emperor Yuan Qi's injury, but no one let her go.

Qin Zhao secretly speculated in his heart, whether someone secretly controlled these soldiers, it shouldn't be, if Gu Junran is giving orders, there is no reason why she should not go to visit Emperor Yuan Qi's injury.

But fortunately, after bumping all the way, she finally returned to the palace. As soon as she returned to the palace, she was sent back to her own palace.

While packing up his things, Xiao Shengzi said unhappily: "Your Highness, what are those people outside them doing? Are they looking for thieves?"

Xiao Shengzi refers to the guards outside.

Qin Zhao thought for a while and said, "It's not just us, every prince is treated like this, so let's bear it if you can."

"It's not allowed to go in and out. It's a good thing we have a small kitchen here, otherwise it would be troublesome to run back and forth to the imperial dining room!" Xiao Shengzi muttered dissatisfied.

Qin Zhao smiled consolingly: "It's my father-in-law Sheng, don't complain, I was drenched in the rain last night, and I feel a bit chilly, let's soak in hot water first."

Xiao Shengzi quickly said: "Okay, I will order you to bring hot water."

After he finished speaking, he saluted, turned around and went to negotiate with the guarding soldiers outside the temple.

Qin Zhao looked out the window, just in time to see a crumbling dead tree.

That doesn't seem like a good sign.

On the other side, the Promise Hall.

Zhao Dewang looked worriedly at Emperor Yuan Qi, who was unconscious on the bed, and then at the imperial doctors kneeling below, like an ant on a hot pot.

Zhao Dewang frowned, and repeatedly asked the only backbone in the entire palace: "Empress, what should I do? Your Majesty still has a high fever after taking medicine. What should I do?"

Gu Junran was silent for a moment before he said, "Have everyone left?"

"Let's go." Zhao Dewang said: "The empresses of all the palaces have gone back."

Gu Junran nodded, and said in a deep voice: "You guys also go to the side hall first, I am here waiting for His Majesty to wake up."

She said, waving her hand.

The imperial physicians who were kneeling below looked at each other, saluted, and left the palace gate.

Just as the imperial physician left, Emperor Yuan Qi's closed eyes moved.

Gu Junran looked at him condescendingly and asked, "Your Majesty, are you awake?"

Emperor Yuan Qi took a deep breath and came to his senses. His voice was so hoarse that he asked directly, "Where's the third child?"

Gu Junran was slightly startled, then chuckled: "Your Majesty wants to see him, is it for reward or for punishment?"

Emperor Yuan Qi seemed unable to hear what she said, and only said: "What about the third child, Jun Ran, go and call the third child here."

Gu Junran stood still and asked him, "What is Your Majesty worried about?"

Emperor Yuan Qi's chest heaved violently: "I want to pass on the throne."

Gu Junran was silent for a moment, and asked him: "Will the throne be passed on to the third prince?"

Emperor Yuan Qi paused, but did not respond.

Gu Junran chuckled, and raised the corner of his mouth: "Your Majesty, even if you know that whether it's a tiger or an assassination, it's the third prince who did it, you still have to pass the throne to the third prince, right?"

Emperor Yuan Qi shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "It wasn't him who did it, it was his mother and concubine who made it happen."

"Is there any difference?" Gu Junran was puzzled, and asked softly, "How could he not know about it?"

Emperor Yuan Qi coughed a few times, and said: "For a king, be...dang cough cough cough! When killing decisively, he is the one who is most like... the sixth son of mine, the sixth son is only used to deal with Liao The bargaining chip of the country, he went to the Liao country and married the princess of the Liao country, I, Great Wei, still need a strong monarch..."

Gu Junran looked at the old emperor on the bed, and said softly: "Your Majesty, when it comes to decisive killing and tough monarchs, the third prince is still showing mercy to you."

Emperor Yuan Qi was startled: "What?"

Gu Junran raised his lips and said with a light smile: "Your body is fine, but the feather arrow is poisoned, it won't kill you, it will just make you sick in bed, unable to speak. If I were him, I would I took the opportunity to kill you."

Emperor Yuan Qi was stunned.

Gu Junran continued: "He didn't intend to assassinate you at first, and even had a dispute with the person sent by his mother and concubine over this, so your Majesty misread it, and the third prince Qin Shou's wrist is not like what you said. Like, kill decisively, he still has you as his father in his heart."

Emperor Yuan Qi's chest suddenly heaved violently, he didn't know whether it was because he was disappointed with Qin Shou, or because he was moved by Qin Shou's concern for his father and son.

Gu Junran stood up and said lightly: "But please rest assured, Your Majesty, during your recovery period, the concubine will take good care of the court program for you, and the concubine has already sent someone to invite the prime minister to return to the court, and please issue an order to let the six The prince came to supervise the country."

The author has something to say: First of all, I am sorry for not hanging the leave note.

But didn't you hang up last time and say you'll be back on May [-]th... I thought everyone had seen it.

What I said last time was that the double update was over after returning on May [-]th.

But I finished the work ahead of time. The day before yesterday, ahem, there was an accident with my wife the day before yesterday. I have been paying attention to this matter that day until today.

Then I happened to want to take two days off and come back to update after working upside down day and night.

Anyway, the double update starts today, and I have to ask for leave.

This chapter is the official red envelope compensation.

I don't want to stop the update... I didn't even dare to apply for the list, and I just missed the time to apply for the list today.

Thank you for waiting, thank you for your patience.
