monopolize my master

Chapter 48 Between the Mists

Jinchen Palace.

"Ah Huang, come and taste this piece of dim sum." The queen kept putting refreshments on Su Huang's plate, "I haven't seen you for a few days, how did Ah Huang become so thin?"

"Don't worry about the empress, everything is fine with me." Su Huang picked up a piece of pastry and bit it lightly, then put it on the plate.

"Ah Huang, eat more." The queen said with a smile on her face, "Ah Huang's arm injury, is it healed now? Since you left the Jinchen Palace and moved into the East Palace, we haven't sat down like this for a long time, except for the daily greetings. Let's have some snacks together."

"Mother, if you have anything to say, just talk about it." Su Huang interrupted the queen lightly, and said, "The mother is pregnant now, and it is very hard to deal with many affairs in the harem. It is inconvenient for me to disturb you for too long."

The queen sighed softly, motioned the ladies around her to go down, and said, "Although I am pregnant, I can't ignore your safety. A few days ago you were assassinated when you went out, and all the attendants came back to report to me. People went to investigate and found out that the assassination that day was not accidental."

Su Huang nodded, "Not long after I left the palace, I was targeted. It must have been premeditated."

"Those killers come from outside the palace. My elder brother is considered half a quack, and he has already found out about this matter..." The queen hesitated, and said, "This palace is just discussing the matter, and please don't mind what the palace will do next. said things."

"It's okay to say, Queen Mother," Su Huang said.

"...The group of people outside the palace are the killers of Lanyue Villa." The queen sipped her tea and said slowly, "Your Highness may not know that Lanyue Villa is one of the famous killer organizations in the Jianghu. As long as Give them money, no matter what kind of request anyone puts forward, they will fulfill it for you. Those killers are from Lanyue Pavilion."

Su Huang frowned tightly, "What does the empress mean...someone wants my son's life?"

"As the crown prince of the East Palace, you should have made such an awareness long ago. It's just that you never thought that these people are so well-informed. You just left the palace before you, maybe they have found someone to ambush you on the way you must pass. And for this assassination Judging from the number of people who acted, this person who wants to take your life must have spent a lot of money." The queen said her thoughts, "I don't know how to deal with this matter, Your Highness? Should I choose to do it as fish on an anvil, or choose to do it with a sharp edge? The knife and the ax are all in His Highness's thought."

"...The queen mother's words seem to have some deep meaning. My son only wants to save his own life, and has nothing else to do." Su Huang pretended to be puzzled, "Then, what should I do?"

"Your Highness, you don't need to do anything." The queen smiled lightly, "I am your queen mother, so naturally I won't hurt your heart. If you are really willing to make a sharp knife and ax to protect yourself, then the queen mother is willing to help you .”

Su Huang said in surprise, "If this matter drags down the empress, the son and minister will die. What's more, the empress is still pregnant..."

"You don't need to worry about it, the queen mother can handle it." The queen gently stroked the top of Su Huang's head, and said with a smile, "Ah Huang just needs to know what the queen mother wants."

"My son, please listen carefully." Su Huang bowed and saluted.

"I'm just a woman. I don't have a big picture or too many ambitions. It's just that there are people in the harem who are very obtrusive. They not only oppose me everywhere, but also disturb your father's safety." The queen thought, "I'm not Forgive her many times, but who knows that she offended again and again...and even stretched her poisonous hand to the front... Su Huang, do you know that the person sent to assassinate you is your elder brother Su Huan."

"Brother Huang?" Su Huang asked suspiciously, "...Brother Huang has always been aloof from the world, so where did the Queen Mother say this?"

"The Emperor is here—"

The queen just swallowed the words she was about to explain, she Shi Shiran arranged her appearance, and went to meet Shengjia with Su Huang.

……

East Palace.

"When did you come in?" Opening the door, Su Huang looked at Feng Ze who was sitting on the chair in surprise.

"I can come in whenever I want." Feng Ze chuckled.

"... What's the matter with you here?" Su Huang sighed, closed the door and window, brought tea and handed it to Feng Ze.

"Did you know? Two days ago, a lady from the Leng Palace disappeared mysteriously." Feng Ze took the tea and said slowly.

"Madam of Lenggong?" Su Huang was puzzled, "Why did you tell me this?"

"Listen to me first." Feng Ze said softly, "That lady was robbed out of the palace by a group of killers in the rivers and lakes, and happened to be met by Ah Wei, who rescued the lady. The lady was a little mentally disturbed. Ah Wei took good care of her, and she gradually regained her senses. She told us all her stories."

Su Huang nodded, "Well, what then?"

"I don't know if she's lying or not. It's just that she said she is Empress Showa." Feng Ze said calmly, "Ah Wei and I didn't dare to neglect her, so we left her in Peach Blossom Mountain and ordered her maid to take good care of her. Ah Wei is guarding her in Peach Blossom Mountain to prevent attacks from thieves, and I am in charge of contacting you...Have you heard of this Empress of the Showa era?"

The cup in Su Huang's hand fell to the ground and shattered.

"...Zhaohe, empress?" Su Huang's eyes were distracted, with tears in his eyes, but they were full of disbelief and panic, "...Zhaohe...mother empress...she...father said..."

"Her record in the palace is indeed that she passed away eight years ago." Feng Ze said, "But one thing is very strange, she claimed that she gave birth to a princess back then... I won't tell you."

Su Huang's mind went blank.

"That's right. Madam also said that Ling Xiao had looked for her the night before she was kidnapped. So A Ling also knew her story."

"...Feng Daxia... What you said...is it true?"

Su Huang's eyes flashed with complex emotions, pain, bewilderment, joy, and sadness mixed together.The huge shock made him lose his ability to think.He became unsteady and fell sideways, Feng Ze quickly supported him.

"Are you okay?" Fengze lifted him up with difficulty and put him on the bed, "I'm sorry, I can't take good care of you. It's really hard to accept that I told you so much all at once. In this way, you should have a good rest first. See you again tomorrow."

"Feng Da Xia." Su Huang reached out and grabbed Feng Ze's clothes, "...do you know who sent those gangsters who hijacked my mother?"

"I don't know who sent them." Feng Ze thought for a while and said, "But I can be sure that they are from Lanyue Villa."

"...Lanyue Villa?" Su Huang smiled wryly, "Sure enough...is it still him?"

"...You should rest well first, I have to go." Feng Ze tucked the quilt up for Su Huang, "It was not your fault that Ah Ling was exiled. You don't need to blame yourself too much. Ah Ling is optimistic by nature, I believe he is Northwest can also live well. As for today's matter, after all, you are in the inner palace, and I can't help you. But I was entrusted with it, and I will definitely save your life." Feng Ze took out a bird from his arms. Handed the whistle to Su Huang and said, "Blow it if you have something to do, and use the carrier pigeon to contact me."

"...Thank you." Su Huang's eyes were slightly red, "If...if you can still see him, please help me to thank him."

Feng Ze solemnly agreed, and quickly disappeared into the night.
