Three hundred and seventieth IX kill two birds with one stone
That night, Hongli read four folds in a row, all talking about this matter. He was so angry that he threw the folds aside, stood up and said, "Let's go..."
Just as she was speaking halfway, the palace door suddenly opened, and a thin figure walked in slowly. It was Xianyue. The moonlight shone into the palace from behind, making her look like a fairy from the Moon Palace coming at night.
Hongli was quite surprised when he saw her, and immediately laughed, "What a coincidence. I was planning to visit you, but you came over."
Xianyue walked up to him, smiled softly and said: "Is this what the predecessors said in the poem - without the body of a colorful phoenix with two flying wings, but with a clear understanding in the heart?"
"Yes, Concubine Xian and I have a good heart." With that said, Hongli stretched out his hand towards her, and after shaking each other, he asked: "How is A Luo? Is he feeling better?"
The smile on Xianyue's face faltered, and she whispered: "It's still the same as before, we have to send someone to watch her twelve hours a day to prevent her from doing anything stupid."
Hongli sighed heavily and said: "Give Aluo some time to stand up slowly. As for the person who harmed her, I have been sending troops to search. I believe that I will definitely find him."
Xianyue smiled bitterly and said: "I have been searching for so long but there is no news. I guess these two people are no longer in Rehe. It will be in vain to search again."
Hongli comforted him: "Don't worry, if Rehe can't be found, after I return to Beijing, I will issue arrest documents to the sea and we must arrest those two people and bring justice to A Luo."
Xianyue looked at him blankly and suddenly said: "No matter who commits a crime, the emperor will give justice to A Luo?"
Hongli immediately said: "Of course it is true. Even if you are a relative of the emperor, I will never forgive you." At this point, he asked: "Why do you ask this suddenly? Is it possible that you have found the murderer?"
"If I had found the murderer, I would have asked the emperor to send troops to arrest him. How can I say this? However, I did get some clues. A Luo said that the two people often mentioned gambling. According to my guess,
They should be two gamblers." She did not mention Mingyu and Wei Jingxuan because it was not the time yet.
Hongli nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask them to search more in places like casinos and pawn shops, but... it's best to have some physical signs. See if A Luo can recall it, otherwise it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Xianyue shook her head and said: "No need, I know that the emperor has been under great pressure during this period in order to find the person who harmed A Luo. If the sea arrest documents are issued again, I am afraid that the opinions of the ministers will be even greater, I am afraid that
I don’t want to embarrass the emperor.” Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, the affairs of the previous dynasty will more or less be spread to the harem.
Hongli snorted softly and said: "If they are willing to accept the discount, let them do it." At this point, he tightened the catkin in his palm and said: "I know you attach great importance to A Luo. If you don't find that
You will never feel at ease with these two people in your life, so I must find them."
Xianyue was moved and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. However, what Your Majesty has done for me and A Luo is really enough. And... I have already thought of a better way than sending documents to the sea to capture them."
Hongli asked curiously: "What better way than to issue a document from the Ministry of Punishment? I really can't wait to hear it?"
Xianyue smiled slightly and said: "Actually, it's not a very clever method, it's just to follow their own preferences. Since they are gamblers, no matter where they go, they will never forget to enter the casino. We can have a casino in the capital."
We will set up generous rewards for the martial arts competition, and then invite gamblers from all over the country to come to Beijing to compete. I believe they will definitely take the bait."
Hongli thought for a long time, then nodded and said with a frown: "It's a good idea, but as the king of a country, if I hold a gambling competition, people will laugh if word spreads about it."
Xianyue smiled and said: "Of course the emperor cannot personally come forward to handle this matter. My intention is to find a trustworthy person to handle it."
"A trustworthy person..." Hongli murmured several times, then a smile appeared on his lips, "I have someone chosen."
Xianyue didn't expect that he would find a candidate so quickly. She looked at Hongli in surprise. The latter met her gaze and said, "It's Lao Wu."
"With the prince?" Xia Yue frowned and said, "Isn't he responsible for the prince's affairs? Will it be difficult to handle this matter again?"
"Just because he is dealing with Hongxi's affairs, I have to choose him." Under Xianyue's puzzled eyes, Hongli slowly explained: "In the eyes of outsiders, I am not on good terms with his brother, and he is not on good terms with me. He was resentful and knew that I never liked gambling, so he deliberately organized some kind of gambling competition to anger me, which not only achieved the purpose of finding someone, but also gained Hong Xi's trust, killing two birds with one stone."
Xianyue understood and said with a smile: "The emperor thinks about Zhou Xiang, which is beyond the control of my concubines."
Hongli laughed loudly and said: "You came up with this idea, I don't dare to take credit for it."
Seeing that Hongli not only agreed with his idea, but also thought of a more comprehensive way, Xianyue felt relieved and said with a smile: "But I only considered A Luo's affairs, but the emperor considered the two affairs. Things that are unrelated to each other come together, so that both parties can benefit, and I am really beyond my reach."
"I will write a secret letter to Lao Wu as soon as possible to ask him to prepare this matter as soon as possible. In addition, Ruoying's fetus will be three months old in a few days and she can leave for Beijing."
Xianyue nodded and said: "I know, I will arrange for Dr. Zhou's carriage to follow Mr. Yu, so that I can take care of you at any time."
"I feel relieved because of your arrangement." After Hongli finished speaking, Xianyue said softly: "I have one more thing to report to the emperor, which is about the marriage between Fu Heng and A Luo."
Hearing this, Hongli's relaxed expression fell silent again. After a long time, he said tactfully: "Xiangyue, I know you feel sorry for A Luo, and I also know that A Luo is the victim, but something like this happened. , she is afraid that... she can no longer marry Fu Heng, not to mention the Fucha family, I am afraid that even Fu Heng himself cannot accept it."
"I know this, so I came to ask the emperor to cancel their engagement." At this point, she took a breath and said, "It's A Luo who is unlucky. I don't blame anyone, I just plead. One sentence, after finding the murderer, please ask the emperor to give justice to A Luo."
"I promise you!" Hongli responded with great certainty, but he didn't know...if he could still do what he said today when he knew that the person who caused all this tragedy was Mingyu.
Five days later, Hongli led everyone from the palace to drive back to the Forbidden City. The day before his departure, Song Zihua came to see Xianyue. Following Xianyue's words, he mentioned to Zhou Minghua the secretion of Yuguiren's anti-fetal medicine. The latter disagreed with the addition of appetizer powder at first, but later saw that Yuguiren was vomiting all day long and could not eat, making her body thinner and thinner. Finally, he accepted Song Zihua's persuasion and added an appropriate amount of appetizer powder to the anti-fetal medicine. After taking it for a few days, Yuguiren's condition improved.
