"The queen said that she had already sent a letter to the king, asking him not to pursue the matter." Bayi Chinese website
After the palace maid finished speaking, Concubine Shu immediately stood up and said in shock: "Did you send it out? Did the king reply?"
The palace maid shook her head and said, "I don't know. The queen only said that she had sent a message to the king, but she didn't say anything else."
Concubine Shu felt that something might be wrong.
If the queen really sent a letter to Shi Le and Shi Le knew about it, the situation would be completely different.
Even if Shi Le himself cannot come back, he can still send Privy Councilor Lu Qichang back.
Concubine Shu was silent for a long time and said, "Everyone has been staying in the palace these past few days. I feel unwell and need to recover."
Concubine Shu's strategy is to wait and see what happens and do nothing.
Anyway, Concubine Li is to blame for the Queen's poisoning, she just needs to stay out of it.
As for Shi Yuncheng, there is no need for Concubine Shu to remind her. Shi Yuncheng has grown up and is smarter than Concubine Shu, and knows how to deal with the current situation.
The palace maid immediately helped Concubine Shu lie down, and then told the palace people that Concubine Shu was ill.
...
In Concubine Li's courtyard, Hong'er entered the bedroom and explained what had just been discussed. Concubine Li was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat.
"The queen said that the message was sent out? When?"
Concubine Li heard that the area around the royal city was blocked and it was impossible for the queen's people to get out.
Hong'er shook her head and said, "I don't know, the queen said so, but no one knows when he went out."
Concubine Li suspected that the queen was lying, but she was not sure.
The queen is a queen after all, so it is not impossible to send someone to sneak out.
"She said she knew who ordered Liu Yubi to poison her. Does she really know?"
Concubine Li had a hard time saying that Liu Yubi's poisoning was not her instigation at all. If the queen really knew it, it could be considered that the wrongdoers have their own owners.
I'm just afraid that the queen won't know about it at all and will just put the shit basin on Concubine Li's head, and that will be the end of her.
Concubine Li's question made Hong'er confused and she didn't know how to answer.
Concubine Li said to herself: "Whether she knows it or not, the queen can never be so kind. How many people have died in her hands?"
"Just like the second princess Shi Jingxiang, who killed her biological mother and raised her as a daughter, the weasel raised chicken cubs and kept them for the New Year."
Concubine Li knew very well the queen's methods and cruelty, and there was absolutely no way she would let her go.
so...
Concubine Li immediately wrote a secret letter and asked Hong'er to send it to Jingzhao Mansion immediately.
Hong'er's scalp went numb when she heard about Jingzhao Mansion, but she had no choice but to run away.
When they arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, Hong'er presented the secret letter. Li Guangliang read it, nodded and said, "Tell your concubine, I understand."
Hong'er immediately returned to the palace.
Li Guangliang felt heavy-headed, he had heard all the news, and he had better information than Concubine Li.
He was also not sure whether the news was true or false. Did the queen send a message to Shi Le?
"grown ups."
A tall, smart-looking man walked in and closed the door with his backhand.
This person is Niu Jin, the commander of the front department of the palace.
The responsibilities of the city patrollers Wuhou and the imperial guards are similar. They both guard the royal city and are responsible for guarding inside and outside the palace.
The Forbidden Army Yamen and the Palace Front Division are jointly responsible.
In the past, the front division of the palace was personally commanded by Shi Le, just like the imperial army.
Later, because Concubine Li was favored, the front office of the palace was given to Jingzhao Mansion, and was led by Li Guangliang.
After more than ten years, the people in the front office were replaced by Li Guangliang's confidants, and this Niu Jin was the subordinate promoted by Li Guangliang.
Li Guangliang asked: "Has the person been found?"
Niu Jin, the commander of the front department of the palace, nodded slightly and said: "We found it. The body was found on the official road more than a hundred miles southeast, right on the road."
Li Guangliang ordered the police to find the person quickly, and he wanted to see him alive or dead or his body.
In one night, the person was found, just on the road.
Li Guangliang's expression changed slightly and he asked: "Killed by the Imperial Army?"
Niu Jin nodded and said: "First he was shot by a crossbow arrow from the Forbidden Army, and Murong Hua committed suicide. The long knife penetrated his heart and died."
"I guess Murong Hua fell into an ambush by the Forbidden Army. After he was hit by an arrow, the Forbidden Army tried to capture him alive, but Murong Hua committed suicide."
Li Guangliang nodded slightly and said: "Okay, Zhou Hao has made his mark for those who dare to kill me."
Li Guangliang had a higher position than Zhou Hao and had soldiers and horses at his disposal. Li Guangliang usually looked down on Zhou Hao, but this time Zhou Hao dared to kill his people. Li Guangliang was very angry.
Niu Jin said: "Sir, there are rumors going around that the Queen will not live for two days, and that the Queen has sent a message to the King."
Niu Jin knew what Li Guangliang did.
If you want to kill the queen, you must do it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late when Shi Le comes back or sends someone back.
Li Guangliang nodded and said: "I heard that we have many enemies. The queen and the second prince..."
Faced with such a situation, Niu Jin was very calm and said: "Sir, the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. It is not a pity for life at this time."
Li Guangliang nodded slightly and said: "Tell the brothers to prepare to take action!"
Niu Jin waited for Li Guangliang's words and bowed excitedly: "Yes!"
...
Forbidden Army Yamen.
The news also reached Shi Yuncheng's ears. Zhou Hao said anxiously: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess said in public that we killed Furong and that we were rebels. If this label is slapped on us, we will not be able to get rid of it."
Shi Yuncheng's face was gloomy and he said angrily: "Who leaked the news?"
According to the original plan, the rebel was Li Guifei, and Shi Yuncheng came out to quell the rebellion.
It's better now. Shi Yuncheng intercepted and killed Fu Rong, but the imperial concubine publicly accused him of rebellion. This crime could not be washed away even if he tried.
Zhou Hao remained silent.
There are too many people who know about Furong, so we can't kill them all.
"Has Fleur's body been disposed of?"
Shi Yuncheng regained his composure, and Zhou Hao replied: "It's done, burned, and the ashes scattered."
Shi Yuncheng nodded and said: "Okay, we must deny this matter. Li Guangliang killed Furong and it has nothing to do with us."
"Concubine Li Guangliang and Li Guangliang are the rebels. The two brothers and sisters instigated Liu Yubi to poison the queen. We are suppressing the rebellion."
Zhou Hao understood what Shi Yuncheng meant. It was the right thing to do and he absolutely could not admit it.
If he admitted to intercepting and killing Furong, it would be treason.
"Those people, deal with them."
Shi Yuncheng didn't want to leave any traces.
Zhou Hao said without any hesitation: "Understood!"
There are only five subordinates, so it would be a pity to kill them.
"With the queen like this, she probably won't live long. Concubine Li will definitely not be able to sit still after hearing what she said today."
"I guess they will speed up the attack. If you ask the brothers to prepare for war, Jingzhao Mansion may launch an attack at any time."
From Concubine Li's point of view, Shi Yuncheng couldn't sit still.
She spoke so bluntly that she almost became known as Concubine Li.
If you don't take action at this time, you are waiting to die.
Therefore, Shi Yuncheng estimated that Concubine Li could not hold it in any longer.
Zhou Hao immediately stood up and left the room, first summoning five forbidden soldiers to the secret room.
Middle palace.
Long Chen carried the queen back to the bedroom, and Yu Yao followed him in.
"Let me down."
The queen hugged Long Chen's neck, feeling a little embarrassed.
Long Chen put the queen on the couch and said, "Please take off your makeup, it's a bit...unsightly."
The queen smiled and said: "It can be seen from their eyes that your makeup is very good."
This sick makeup was painted by Long Chen and it looks quite real.
Yuyao closed the door and said, "Those people must have believed it."
Long Chen brought hot water to remove makeup, and the queen said: "No, these people are foxes with thousands of years of experience, and they are very good at it!"
"Send someone to inquire and see what they say."
The queen is the queen, and she does things carefully and carefully.
Yuyao immediately sent people out to inquire about the situation, and at the same time sealed off the dormitory, making it look like the situation was critical.
Long Chen finished taking off the queen's makeup in the room, and Yuyao also came back.
"Empress, they all said you were dying, and they all believed it."
The queen said happily: "Xiao Feng, the next step is up to you."
