Dongmei said: "I don't dare to say for sure, but the master's disclosure of his relationship with Master Ji should be able to alleviate the emperor's suspicion."
Xiao Quanzi followed: "Yes, the emperor clearly wanted to test the master just now, but he never expected that the master would reveal everything about his relationship with Master Ji."
Concubine Yu nodded slightly, then showed a look of annoyance, "Originally everything went well and the Emperor didn't suspect me at all. The reason why it became like this is because of Prince Baihe. This person..." She paused for a moment and said coldly.
Leng spit out three words, "Can't stay!"
Xiao Quanzi frowned and said, "But he is a prince, and he has many expert guards around him, and he is deeply trusted by the emperor. I'm afraid he won't be so easy to kill."
Concubine Yu sneered and said: "Why do we need to do anything? He has been helping Nala Xianyue to clear away the suspicion. Little does he know that he is gradually stepping into the gate of hell. Just wait, I will find an opportunity sooner or later to send him and that
La Xianyue went to the underworld to be a pair of desperate mandarin ducks."
Ji Changming's sudden and unprovoked death was quickly associated with the disaster star. Almost overnight, the disaster star incident became more serious. Every morning, the smell of gunpowder filled the air, and it became more serious each time. However, in
At this time, Jin was born prematurely again, although it was only half a month premature. In the end, mother and child were safe.
But at this time, it undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. In the morning of that day, Hongli walked away, but those officials refused to give up and knelt outside the Yangxin Hall. No matter how Yunli and Hongzhou tried to persuade them, they would not give up.
He was willing to leave, and provincial capitals outside the capital were also submitting memorials one after another, all saying that no disaster star should be left behind.
Just as Hong Zhou had guessed before, things were getting more and more serious, and even Hongli, the current emperor, couldn't suppress it.
Hongli lost his temper in the Yangxin Hall, and the palace people were so scared that they huddled in the corner, and no one dared to say anything. Hongzhou looked at all this helplessly. He had tried his best to investigate in the past few days, but there was always only one
It turns out that those clues made no progress. As for Shuntian Mansion, they have not found the cause of Ji Changming's death. If it can be proved that Ji Changming was murdered, the matter will not worsen to this point.
After Hongli walked a few times irritably with his hands behind his back, he said sharply: "Are those people still kneeling?"
Si Xi said tremblingly: "When I return to the emperor, all the ministers are still kneeling and refuse to leave."
"Damn it!" Hong Li's eyes were cold, "Are they just waiting to be punished?"
"Your Majesty, calm down." Hong Zhou said quickly: "At this time, if Your Majesty deals with them, I'm afraid it will make things even worse."
Hongli said angrily: "Don't you think the current situation is not bad?"
Hong Zhou lowered his head and said, "It's all my fault that my brother is useless. He couldn't find more clues and failed to relieve the emperor from his worries."
Hearing this, Hongli sighed deeply and said: "The disaster star... is the child in Xianyue's belly really the disaster star?"
Hong Zhou heard this and said hurriedly: "No, my brother believes that such a thing will not happen. Ji Changming's death is so strange, he must have been killed and silenced, Concubine Yu..."
Hongli shook his head and said: "I tested Concubine Yu, and she confessed that she had been engaged to Ji Changming without any concealment. I don't see anything suspicious, so it shouldn't be her."
Hong Zhou was stunned, and then said: "But... if it wasn't Concubine Yu, who could make Ji Changming move?"
Hongli looked complicated and said: "Yes, who can make him move? Or, there is no one at all."
Hong Zhou heard the wavering in his words and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I have always felt that the rumors about the disaster star are very suspicious. Concubine Xian will not be pregnant with the disaster star. Please give me some more time, and I will definitely put this matter into perspective."
Let’s get to the bottom of this matter.”
Hong Li looked at Hong Zhou for a long time and suddenly said: "Hong Zhou, why have you been helping Concubine Xian to speak for you since this incident? Don't you always dislike Concubine Xian?"
Hearing this, Hong Zhou knew that although he tried his best to control it, he still said too much unknowingly, which aroused Hongli's suspicion. After all... he and Xianyue had a feeling that seemed real and fake.
Even though the years have passed and many things have been forgotten, forgetting does not mean forgetting...
Hong Zhou changed his mind and cupped his hands and said: "I didn't speak for anyone, I just discussed the matter. In addition, when I went to visit the Queen Mother before, I heard the Queen Mother say that she was also accused when she was pregnant with the emperor.
It was ominous, just like today, but it was later proven that someone wanted to harm the Queen Mother and the Emperor. The Emperor, my brother..."
"But what if it's not?" Hongli suddenly interrupted him, "What if it's really a disaster star?"
Hong Zhou looked at him in shock, "Doesn't even the emperor believe that Concubine Xian was harmed?"
"I don't know!" Hongli said irritably, and then added: "Even if I believe it, what about those people outside? You stopped me from using the cane, so you just let them keep kneeling?
"
Hong Zhou was speechless and could only say: "Please give me time, I will definitely find out."
Hongli roared: "Time! Time! What I lack most now is time." During this period of time, he has been under the double pressure of the former harem. If it were not for his outstanding perseverance and strong opinion, he would have been unable to bear it long ago.
.
Hongli punched the column angrily and said loudly: "Seven months. It's still seven months before Li Xianyue gives birth to the child. Where do you want me to find seven months for her? As for you
..." He stared at Hong Zhou and said: "I gave you so much time, but what did you find out? You only found one Ji Changming, and in the end, Ji Changming is dead, so it is of no use at all!"
Hong Zhou said in a solemn voice: "My brother deserves to die!"
Hongli sternly rebuked: "Damn it! Damn it! What else can you say besides this? What I want now is a solution!"
After walking around like this for a few more times, he said coldly: "Show me the Yanxi Palace!"
Hong Zhou was shocked and turned pale. He didn't care about being suspected by Hong Li and stepped forward to persuade him: "Your Majesty, do you really want to get rid of that child? He is your flesh and blood, and... and Concubine Xian had a hard time getting pregnant with this child.
, what you did was too cruel to her!"
Hong Li ignored him and just strode out. Hong Zhou wanted to catch up, but after walking a few steps, he heard a cold voice coming from the front, "Don't follow me!"
Hong Zhou stopped helplessly, but the worry in his heart could not stop. He could not just watch something happen to Xianyue, he must stop Hong Li from aborting this child, he must!
After thinking for a long time, he hurried to Cining Palace. At this time, only the Queen Mother could save Xianyue.
Because he was concerned about Xianyue's comfort, Hong Zhou almost trotted over. Along the way, he kept attracting pity from the palace people. Hong Zhou didn't care about it. After entering Cining Palace, he grabbed the palace people who happened to pass by, nervously
He asked: "Where is the Queen Mother? Where is the Queen Mother?"
