But the two of them squatted in the space and stared, unwilling to go out.
Finally, Qin Jiaoxi spoke slowly and hesitantly.
"Brother Ji Ming, if uncle can directly give up the throne to your father... I mean, if he gives up the throne to His Highness the Crown Prince now, will it also expose others' flaws?"
Bo Jiming pursed his lips and looked incomprehensible.
After a long while, he took a deep breath and said, "If there is something wrong with the Emperor, the beneficiary will not only be Concubine Liu, but also my mother-in-law, right?"
Qin Jiaoxi raised his head and looked at him: "Brother Ming, but my mother and concubine didn't come near Yuchi Palace, it's not like she is taking care of the emperor personally!"
Bo Jiming sighed: "But she has a good relationship with Concubine Liu, and there are contacts between them!"
Qin Jiaoxi shook his head: "Maybe we are overthinking it. Anyway, let's take a look at the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will announce tomorrow that the Emperor will leave the palace, and then take a look!"
The two squatted in silence for a long time before Bo Jiming sent Qin Jiaoxi back to the room.
The next day.
The two got up early in the morning and waited for the next court meeting.
Shang Yin had breakfast made and delivered to the main hall. He looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't go to court until noon. You'll know what the situation will be then."
Qin Jiaoxi and Bo Jiming silently looked away from each other.
They had already suspected Shang Yin last night, and seeing her so calm now, they all felt guilty.
"Concubine, please have your meal first, Xi'er will accompany you for a walk in the garden later!"
Qin Jiaoxi sat up straight, thinking that even if her suspicions were wrong, her starting point was to save her uncle, even if everyone was suspicious.
Thinking of this, my mentality quickly changed.
Now that Bo clearly saw her like this, he gradually let go of the discomfort in his heart.
The three of them had breakfast and walked around Qingli Hall several times, finally waiting for the news about the next court.
However, since Bo knew that no one came, he first sent a young eunuch to convey the news.
"The emperor's decision to leave the palace for medical treatment was mentioned earlier in the court, and there were many people in the court who opposed it!"
There was a series of names listed on the note.
Basically, except for the low-ranking officials who did not dare to speak, all the veterans had the same opinion: the emperor's body cannot be tortured anymore.
Shang Yin sighed: "These are all important ministers of the court, and General Fei Lian also feels the same way. He must be really unwilling to let the emperor suffer!"
Qin Jiaoxi and Bo Jiming looked at each other, suppressed their thoughts, and said, "In this case, this way is not feasible, let's go and tell the emperor!"
Shang Yin nodded: "Go ahead, remember not to stay too long this time, so as not to be criticized again!"
…
Qin Jiaoxi and Bo Jiming left the Qingli Hall and turned around, looking around in tacit understanding and escaping into the space.
"go back?"
"Um!"
The next moment, the two of them had returned to Qingli Hall.
Then, he saw a smile on Shang Yin's lips, and slowly tore up the piece of paper with the list of courtiers written on it.
Although she didn't say anything, the smile on her face really made people feel chilled.
Qin Jiaoxi pulled Bo Jiming: "Why don't you just let uncle move out and live in the imperial study? Don't try anything."
Bo Jiming slowly shook his head: "It is necessary to move out, but I want to know why!"
He did not believe that his mother-in-law would really wait for the old emperor to die in order to ascend to the throne.
Especially a mother-in-law who still cares for him like a child.
Concubine Liu Guifei also makes people feel very strange. She obviously does not need to protect the emperor like this!
The two of them returned to the original place, and then walked slowly towards the Yuchi Palace. Unexpectedly, someone had already noticed something was wrong.
Qingli Hall.
Shang Yin was sitting on the imperial concubine's couch behind the screen in the side hall, when a voice suddenly came from outside.
"Your Majesty, the young prince and Princess Chu Ning just disappeared suddenly for some unknown reason!"
Shang Yin's face changed: "What do you mean by disappearing?"
The voice said again: "Mom, don't be nervous, they just disappeared for a while, but then they appeared out of nowhere!"
Shang Yin frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly looked around in shock.
"Don't worry, Madam. No one has been around, and the young prince has not returned to Qingli Hall. They should be outside Yuchi Hall at this moment."
Shang Yin's shoulders and neck relaxed, and he looked out the empty window with his elegant neck: "Okay, please pay close attention to his whereabouts!"
The trees at the entrance of Qingli Hall were not moving in the wind, and Shang Yin finally looked away.
Then, another strange smile appeared on his lips.
"Don't worry tomorrow, my concubine will avenge you very soon!"
…
Qin Jiaoxi and Bo Jiming met the old emperor in Yuchi Palace.
This time, in addition to Eunuch Zhang and the two medical girls, he was also accompanied by the Queen Mother's nuns.
The old emperor waved his hand and everyone retreated. Only the old nun beside the Queen Mother stood indifferently.
"Mother Liu, let me have a few words with my grandson!"
However, the old mama said without changing her expression: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this old slave is yours. Even the gods can't pry this mouth open."
The old emperor also looked helpless. After thinking about it, he could only say to Qin Jiaoxi: "No problem, come here!"
Aunt Liu was considered his nanny. Although she went to Changshou Mountain with the Empress Dowager, she volunteered to come back to take care of him after hearing about his recurrence of illness.
All the meals in the kitchen had to be made sure by her before Eunuch Zhang personally delivered them to Concubine Liu.
These three people can be said to be a safety line that he absolutely trusts.
Although there were few people around him, it was precisely this small number that gave him stability and peace of mind.
It's just that Concubine Liu's collapse has left him with a missing link in the kitchen. It seems that Qin Jiaoxi and Bo Jiming have to make up for it.
Qin Jiaoxi made eye contact with the old emperor, and only after making sure that the old nanny was trustworthy did she tell him about today's morning meeting.
"There are many opponents in the court, so the emperor probably cannot leave the palace to recuperate!"
The old emperor got acupuncture twice yesterday, and his complexion has recovered a lot today. Hearing this, he sighed softly: "What do you two want to spy on in the court? There are many people who hope that I will die soon, but they will never show their feet at this time.
!”
Qin Jiaoxi: "Uncle...Your Majesty, we don't want to spy on anything, but we want you to move out of the palace!"
Aunt Liu's expression moved slightly, but she stopped talking.
But in his heart, he couldn't help but glared at Qin Jiaoxi fiercely.
Princess Chu Ning didn't know what the fuss was about, and actually wanted the emperor to move out.
Crazy!
How can the emperor's current body withstand the torment!
But considering the emperor's willingness to keep her under his care, Nanny Liu gritted her teeth and remained silent.
Qin Jiaoxi glanced at Nanny Liu and thought to herself: "The emperor suddenly fell ill yesterday. Before Jiaoxi had time to tell you, the feng shui of this bedroom is in conflict with the emperor's condition, so it is really not suitable for recuperation!"
When Grandma Liu heard that the feng shui was wrong, she immediately looked at Qin Jiaoxi with wide eyes.
This is the Yuchi Palace, the sleeping palace carefully built by our ancestors. How could the feng shui be wrong?
