"Mother?" Rong Mo was a little confused at first, but it took him a while to realize that he was talking about the queen.
As the Crown Princess's personal maid, she naturally knew that the relationship between the Crown Princess and the Queen had never been very good.
In fact, it's no wonder that there are only a few people in the world who have a good relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. What's more, the queen is not the biological mother of the prince yet, but she still pretends to be an elder. Both of them have strong tempers, so naturally they don't like each other.
"Great!" Rong Mo was a little excited, and asked the Crown Princess to see Zu An's embarrassment and see how he could please the Crown Princess.
Soon Bi Linglong came to the Queen's Palace with a group of palace ladies and eunuchs, but was quickly stopped by the palace ladies and eunuchs outside: "See the Crown Princess."
"I heard that the queen mother has returned from the other courtyard. As a junior, I came over to visit her." Bi Linglong said calmly.
"Yes, let's report it right away." The maids under the queen looked at each other. You must know that the relationship between the queen and the crown princess can only be said to be average. Every time, the crown princess comes to go through the motions on a few specific days. Besides????
??????????He has never been here before. The sun is rising in the west today?
Bi Linglong frowned: "What are you doing outside?"
The palace maids replied: "Your Majesty is a little tired and needs a rest, so let us stay outside."
Bi Linglong looked into the palace: "No need to bother, I will go in with you."
After saying that, go straight inside.
The palace maids did not dare to stop him, so they had to run all the way to inform him first.
As the Crown Princess, Bi Linglong respected her status and could not follow her and ran inside, so she could only walk in in small steps.
When we arrived at the queen's bedroom, a faint voice came from inside: "It turns out to be Linglong. I was sleeping just now. Please wait a moment."
Bi Linglong was a little confused, why did the Queen's voice sound so charming today?
It seems like your breathing is trembling?
But it was probably because she had just woken up, so she didn't think much about it: "It disturbed the queen's rest."
At the same time, a pair of eyes quietly looked around, but did not see the shadow of Zu An.
Thinking of this, she burst into laughter. How could the queen let Zu An stay in her palace?
Thinking of this, her originally angry mood gradually calmed down, and she couldn't help but glare at Rong Mo. It was because of this girl's nonsense that she almost wrongly accused a good person.
Rong Mo was also wronged. She had indeed seen Zu An being called away by Eunuch Lu just now.
At this time, the queen had already put on her clothes and walked out. For some reason, Bi Linglong always felt that she was not dressed as grandly as usual, but she looked much better than usual. Her whole face was radiant, especially her skin was white and translucent.
Red, as if like a girl.
Even Bi Linglong had to admit that it was no wonder that she could be the mother of a country. She was indeed the most beautiful woman among beauties.
"Why is Linglong here today?" The queen greeted her with a smile. Under the clothes, her body could not help but tremble slightly. While she recalled the afterglow of just now, she complained about Linglong's sudden arrival.
Of course she didn't show it at all on her face.
"I heard that my mother has returned to the palace, so I naturally wanted to come and visit. I just happened to get some precious herbs recently, so I can bring them to you." Bi Linglong said and motioned to the maid beside her to send the gift over. There was nothing wrong with her words and deeds.
"Linglong is determined..."
The two of them tried their best to attack and defend each other, and after a while of formal greetings, Bi Linglong couldn't help but asked: "Hey, why didn't you see Master Zu?"
The queen's heart was beating wildly, but she didn't show any signs of strangeness: "I called Master Zu over to ask a few words before, but he left not long ago. I think he went back to the imperial study to wait."
She did not deny it. Since the other party could ask this, there was obviously a source of information that knew that Zu An was on her side. If she denied it blindly, it would be even more suspicious.
"I see." Bi Linglong felt relieved, chatted with her for a few words, and then found a way to say goodbye.
The queen pretended to stay for a few times, and then the two parties broke up.
Seeing the other party's leaving figure, the queen put away her smile. She didn't expect that she knew that Zu An came to her place. It seemed that she had to pay more attention in the future, otherwise it would be quite troublesome for Zhao Hao to find out.
;Hey, wait a minute, why is she so concerned about a minister?
Could it be...
Is she planning to use this to criticize me?
She was still a bit worried about the relationship between the two of them, and the more she thought about it, the more likely it was that she might have gotten some rumors from Zhao Hao and wanted to use it as an excuse for herself and Zu An.
Thinking about what happened later, she broke out in a cold sweat. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have any contact with Zu An anymore due to the current situation, but it was inevitable for her to recover her skills. It was really tangled.
…
Let's say that Zu An returned to the imperial study room and quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It was really a test on his heart. He was almost hit by Bi Linglong just now.
The queen does have a special charm about her, but it is too dangerous to get too close to her.
At this moment, a young eunuch came out and was a little surprised when he saw Zu An: "Master Zu, just in time, the emperor is looking for you."
Zu An looked strange, thinking that the emperor would have noticed that he had just galloped on top of his wife.
But now that the matter has come to this, we can only go in bravely.
He was secretly glad that on his way here, he had used water techniques to cleanse and evaporate the smell on his body. Otherwise, he would have been doomed if he had not let the other party smell the fragrance of the Queen on his body.
After entering, he couldn't help but be startled. He found that there was not only Sang Hong, but also several other court officials, such as Meng Yi, the supervisor of Zhongshu, Zuopu Shebiqi, the principal of the country, Liu Guang, the king of Liang, and Zhao Yi, the king of Liang...
Without exception, they are all core members of the emperor's faction.
Seeing him come in, the emperor said: "Take Lord Sang back to rest and recuperate, and I will ask you to bring twenty Yulin guards to protect him personally."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Although Sang Hong was injured, he still saluted and thanked him.
You must know that the Habayashi Guards are the imperial guards in the palace. They usually only support the safety of the palace, and occasionally allocate some to the imperial envoys.
They are rarely sent to protect an individual.
Although the number of twenty Yulin guards is not large, it shows the emperor's attitude. In this way, no one will dare to risk the disapproval of the world to touch him.
Zu An was also happy for Sang Hong. His life was saved in this way. He could not guard Sang Hong all the time. With the emperor's public protection, it was no longer possible for the people of King Qi to attack him.
After the two people left, the emperor frowned and subconsciously looked up. There was obviously nothing on his head. Why did Zu An secretly glance at the top of my head several times?
And there seemed to be a hint of pity in his eyes, which was really unpleasant.
At this moment, Liang Wang Zhao Yi's words interrupted his thoughts: "Your Majesty, King Qi openly used assassins to assassinate people in the imperial city. It is an unpardonable crime.
Please, your Majesty, lower your responsibilities and punishment!”
Liu Yao also stood up and said: "King Qi is ambitious and has committed more crimes than this. He secretly arranged a rebellion in Yunzhong County before, and after the failure, he surrounded and killed the envoys in an attempt to eliminate evidence. In addition to all these years, other
The sin should be punished!"
The rest of the people also stood up and recounted King Qi's crimes, urging the emperor to attack King Qi. Now that their side had gained the upper hand, it was the best time to attack King Qi.
However, Zhao Hao never expressed his position, and then looked at Bi Qi and Meng Yi: "What do you two think?"
Bi Qi and Meng Yi looked at each other, and finally Bi Qi said: "I thought..."
…
"King Qi is finished." Sang Hong quietly said to Zu An after leaving the royal study for some distance.
Zu An was shocked: "Is the emperor going to take action this time?"
"That's not necessarily the case," Sang Hong shook his head. "Although King Qi's power has declined significantly recently, his background is extraordinary. If pressed, he will jump over the wall. The emperor should not take too rough measures, but King Qi has already been in the capital.
There is no place left.”
Unlike other vassal kings, the King of Qi wanted to compete for the throne. Once he left the capital, the center of power, he would completely withdraw from the struggle for the throne, and his forces would gradually fall apart.
At this time, there was also a party in a secret room in Prince Qi's palace, and the person leading the party was none other than Prince Qi.
"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, why not take action?" one of them said.
Half of King Qi's face was covered by shadows, and he was silent for a long time. Finally, he slowly said: "Okay!"
