Zhou Shuhe finally rubbed against Qi Yu's shoulder and sat up straight.

"Since you have business to do, let's talk about it. Anyway, you are a heartless person. If you don't have business to do, you won't miss me."

The first half of the sentence still said the real thing, but the second half couldn't help teasing him.

Qi Yu had no choice but to admit his mistake, and promised again and again that besides Chenshi, he would come to Lanfang Pavilion whenever he had free time, and promised to bring her the most fashionable words outside the palace, find the lost horse Diaoshu, and the daily When they met in the morning, he would tell her about his three meals a day yesterday - if he didn't eat well, he wouldn't be qualified to discipline her about Zhou Shuhe's medicine.

After signing this series of unequal treaties, Qi Yu was finally generously spared and he was able to talk about serious business.

"Concubine Zhuang is under the protection of the Empress Dowager. Before I started the torture, he took poison and committed suicide before I started. That's why I didn't get the proof that Concubine Zhuang bribed him to harm you until today."

Zhou Shuhe frowned, and said slowly: "She didn't do me any actual harm, not to mention that compared with evidence, the emperor's heart is the key to many things, just take it easy, since both the queen mother and the emperor want to protect Zhuang Concubine, why do you have to go against the current..."

Qi Yu shook his head: "I was stunned before."

Zhou Shuhe was stunned for a moment, and wondered: "It was useless to persuade you so many times a few days ago. Concubine Zhuang must pay the price for everything I said. Why did I suddenly figure it out today?"

"Probably because I unintentionally found other evidence that can turn the emperor's mind." He smiled, with a kind of joy in his eyes, and asked her, "Do you want to guess what it is?"

Zhou Shuhe didn't try to guess. Seeing this man's complacent look, she couldn't help but want to pinch his face.

As a middle-aged woman who is not a few years younger than the emperor, Zhou Shuhe fully understands His Majesty's love for young girls.

It seems that she also likes boys very much.

Qi Yu is not yet full, she is upright and youthful, and with her constant attention these days, she has become more regular in eating and sleeping, and at the same time she has increased her size a bit, she feels... well, there is still a thin layer of muscle.

"But why doesn't your face grow flesh?" Zhou Shuhe rubbed his cheeks, looked left and right, very puzzled.

Qi Yu was pinched on half of his face, and he tried hard to keep his voice from becoming ambiguous, and reminded: "Let's talk about business."

Of course he had to talk about the business, Zhou Shuhe let go of him with some regrets, and got upright and obediently listened to the lecture. As he listened, his expression gradually became dignified.

In order to thoroughly investigate Concubine Zhuang, Qi Yu asked the emperor to delegate power under the pretext of investigating Zhenbei Wang. .

If you don't check, you don't know, but after a check, he really found a clue.

For more than ten years, the achievements of Chu Huaizhang, the King of Zhenbei, in guarding the northern border of Daning all came from the deals he made with the new king of Beidi by colluding with foreign enemies.

He exchanged money and grain with the king of Beidi so that they would not come to the Daning border to harass and plunder, and then take credit for the tranquility of the northern border, ask the court for money and grain, and hand over part of the grain and grass allocated by the court to Beidi in the second year, and the rest A part of it belongs to the capital of one's own sensuality.

In this way, year after year, the "stability" of the northern border has been maintained.

The emperor is not an idiot, so he naturally placed his cronies by his side. He shouldn't have been kept in the dark, but the one who was sent to Zhenbeiguan was none other than the emperor's cousin, the younger brother of Concubine Zhuang Ningchan. Ning Yong.

And a long, long time ago, when the emperor was not yet the emperor, and the king of Zhenbei was not the king of Zhenbei, the side concubine Ning in the hidden mansion was seized by Chu Huaizhang.

In the palace of the 23rd prince, Chu Huaizhang heard his brother's concubine Bai and Concubine Ning talking behind a rocky rockery.

Ning Chan said: "Bai Xianxian, do you really think that your father and brother were killed by the prince's original fiancée? She is a noble girl, even if she can't be a princess, she is still a lady. How could she bother to murder your little merchant?"

"The one who killed your father and brother was actually our prince."

"He loves you so much, he can't let go of you, but your father and brother's humble background made you also come from a humble background, and the prince is also ashamed of this, so he kindly planned to change your background for you. Such a great favor, your family does not have it." willing."

"If you use the cheap to offend the rich, you should be beheaded."

At that time, Chu Huaizhang hid in the shadow of the rocks and did nothing.

Until the new emperor came to the throne, Bai's body rotted in the pile of firewood in the side courtyard of the palace. The former Concubine Ning became the emperor's favorite concubine. Extremely cold place.

People are naturally unwilling to stay away from the center of power.

So at the farewell family banquet, he found Ning Chan, toasted her a glass of wine, and sighed: "Ms. Zhuang Concubine, I really can't figure it out. Why did you sow discord in front of Mrs. Bai and make her hate Your Majesty so much?" so much so that he wanted to use incense to murder his own husband."

"Thinking about it carefully, do you think this is hindering the emperor's heir?"

Concubine Zhuang was afraid that Chu Huaizhang would reveal the matter, so she had to conspire with him to make her younger brother Ning Yong guard the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason for him.

For Qi Yu, the focus of this incident is more on Concubine Zhuang's past of instigating the Bai family and the emperor, and conspiring with others to conceal the crime of collaborating with the enemy. Exposing this matter can turn the emperor's mind around and bring down Concubine Zhuang at any time , Yixue the hatred in his heart.

For Zhou Shuhe, the last piece of the puzzle finally returned to its place, unraveling all the unwillingness in her previous life.

She used to be unable to understand why the great country of Da Ning collapsed like a landslide and tsunami in just two years.

It turned out that the disaster was buried early.

Beidi people are strong and strong, but they have always been short of clothes and food, and they don’t have the skills to forge copper and iron. Therefore, every invasion in the past could not really hurt Daning’s muscles and bones. Where the Di Ren cavalry is naturally brave and invincible.

So...therefore in her previous life, although she heard about the invasion of the Di people, she didn't take it seriously, and she didn't stop Xi'er from going north and causing her to die tragically in another country.

It turns out that a person's life actually accommodates relatives and loved ones, but those lucks are taken away by evil people.But this time, she wants to protect her important people from the hands of the emperor and King Zhenbei.

She wants the throne.

Zhou Shuhe raised her eyes slowly, the urgency surging in her heart made her feel that she was shaking all over.

"Qi Yu, put Concubine Zhuang's concerns aside, I don't care about her honor or disgrace."

"Don't ask me why, I don't know how to explain it to you, and I don't want to find a reason to prevaricate you, whether you think I know witchcraft, can predict, or talk nonsense-Chu Huaizhang, he is absolutely unforgivable Yes, my true enemy."

From Fang to early summer, the branches are not yet shaded, and the south wind blows away the temperature of the sun, which is the best weather.

Qi Yu didn't respond immediately. She walked to the round table, poured a cup of tea, and stuffed a piece of honey cake in her hand into her hand.

"Of course I will help you, and you don't need to explain anything, don't worry."

Zhou Shuhe was stuffed with one hand of tea and one hand of pastry, a little dazed, the urgency and tension suddenly dissipated, she burst out laughing, leaned on the bed and looked at him with a smile.

"Okay, don't worry, let's take our time."

She is no longer a lone traveler who clenched her teeth and tried to grab the last treasure. The world is so big and the rest of her life is so long. Once again, she has many dear people, and Qi Yu will help her and guard her with her Something to protect.

Zhou Shuhe's not in a hurry to take his time, what he said is to let Sui Sui grow up slowly, not to mention reaching an adult, at least until he is five or six years old, and he will become a major event after he is enlightened to study.

But Qi Yu didn't rush and took his time, saying he would come tomorrow.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhou Shuhe made a few trays of mung bean snacks, packed what he wanted to eat, what he planned to eat for Qi Yu, what he gave to the people of Lanfang Pavilion, and what he bestowed upon Qi Yingying to taste. Well, there are still a few left, and they are placed on a plate, and they are going to be sent to the emperor to make contact.

There is a saying that there is a three-point love when meeting, and the palace pays most attention to human feelings.

She walked outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation against the sun, but was stopped by Yuan Xian who was on duty at the door.

"Concubine Yuan please be safe, Your Majesty is angry inside, you'd better not go in, don't accidentally touch His Majesty's anger."

Zhou Shuhe wondered: "Who has provoked His Majesty?"

Yuan Xian said: "Just now Qi Bingbi entered the palace to report on the matter of the previous court. He vaguely heard talking about His Royal Highness King Zhenbei. For some reason, His Majesty became angry. The last time His Majesty was so angry, you should be with me." The matter of the palace being on fire was what Qi Bingbi had said, and was beaten bloody by His Majesty's wrath, so I don't know what to do this time..."

Seeing that Zhou Shuhe's complexion was not good, he thought it was because he was annoying others by talking too much, so he quickly stopped talking: "Your servant, I'm just talking irrelevant things to pollute your ears, I beg the imperial concubine Yuan to forgive me."

Zhou Shuhe shook his head and said nothing, handed the food box to Yuan Xian, and asked him to send it in later and report to her, then turned and went back to Lanfang Pavilion.

No matter what happened to King Zhenbei, the internal officials could not be angered. Zhou Shuhe thought very clearly. In any case, this time it will not be as tragic as the day when the Yihe Palace was on fire. There is no need for her to worry too much about Qi Yu's situation.

Even though he knew intellectually that it was unnecessary, he still had a lot of worries in his heart.

She always felt that Qi Yu was too gambler, he didn't seem to care much about whether he would pay the price, even Yuan Xian would consider the emperor's anger towards him, but he himself didn't hesitate at all.

As long as he is [-]% sure of one thing, he will do it without hesitation.

The sun was slowly moving westward, and Zhou Shuhe was lying on the edge of the collapse, humming a song to lull Suisui to sleep, while thinking that he would teach Qi Yu a lesson later so that he would learn to take more care of himself.
