Yuchi Gong felt that things were a little tricky for the first time, but then he thought, he had only been out of the palace for a month or two, and there was still time.
At that time, even if it was a robbery, she would be snatched into the palace.
Is there anyone in this world who can beat him?!
Teach him to make a false alarm, and this little thief will be hard to let go.
When Yuchi Gong thought about this, his mood suddenly brightened, and he walked towards the main hall at a fast pace. As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw the man at a glance.
His stern face couldn't help but soften, and he didn't even bother to scold the messy situation in the palace, he just looked at the woman.
Except for the Queen Mother who walked to the side and wanted to go to the back hall through the bead curtain door, and Aunt Qin who was supporting her, the rest of the people in the palace were either kneeling with their heads down or lying down, and did not dare to make any sound.
In this situation, Lihua had just recovered from the cruel shock, and unexpectedly saw the emperor.
With a handsome face like an evildoer, wearing a green dragon robe with gold embroidery, he has an innate noble temperament and an irrepressible imperial aura.
Lihua suddenly thought that she could not see Taishan. How could such a person be a eunuch who was submissive to others?
At this moment, Lihua really saw clearly what Yuchi Gong was like.
She didn't know how to react for a moment, her mind was half trapped in the cruel and cold clouds of the harem, and half in the unknown future.
Even though Lihua had been mentally prepared, when faced with the tragic and cruel reality, she still couldn't be as hard-hearted as iron and completely indifferent.
She cannot treat people as pig or dog pawns and do whatever it takes to achieve her goals.
But she also knew clearly that this was a fight to the death, with an abyss behind her, and she could only move forward but not retreat.
It was this fragmented and contradictory impact that made her unable to relax for a while.
She turned around and stared blankly at the man approaching. The trick she had planned to meet again was completely useless.
Until Yu Chigong walked up to her, looked at her and asked softly: "What is your name?"
As if afraid of scaring away the deer in the forest, his tone of voice was kind and gentle.
Lihua subconsciously replied: "Lihua."
Then he reacted: "Wu Li, I am Wu Li."
The corners of Yuchi Gong's lips raised slightly: "Okay, I have remembered everything."
This smile, in an instant, exhausted all the youth and was as bright as a star.
Lihua was in a daze, thinking blankly, this deadly monster is so beautiful, what did he remember?
Yuchi Gong saw her rare cute and well-behaved expression, and smiled silently at her again, leaving Lihua stunned.
Yuchi Gong was happy in his heart, but he knew that this was not the time to talk. There were many people and he could not give her preferential treatment, lest it bring her trouble.
He moved his eyes away and greeted the Queen Mother in front of the bead curtain door, and then he was able to look around the palace.
When I see Xiaojunzi’s body is still there, it’s not far from Lihua.
Yuchi Gong's face turned as cold as ice: "Zhang Defa, why did you leave the dead man here? Could it be to keep you company?"
What should I do if I scare the Queen Mother or the little thief!
Zhang Defa bowed his head and knelt respectfully not far from Lihua.
When the emperor came, Zhang Defa was asking people to search all the people related to the case, and then brought them into the spacious main hall for centralized guarding. Before he had time to carry away Xiao Junzi's body.
The purpose of leaving the corpse here is to frighten all the slaves, scare them out of courage first, and teach them that it is easy to die, and then high-pressure interrogation will be easy.
The moment before the emperor entered the door, he was about to ask someone to search Lihua's body. After all, he was the concubine's master and could not search directly like a slave. It was a bit of face for him to come forward in person.
Unexpectedly, Wu Xue suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked the road, looking at him eagerly, as if he was not allowed to touch the pear blossom.
At that time, Zhang Defa had a hunch that something was wrong. Wu Xue could not defend a strange concubine for no reason.
He felt that he had missed something.
But he was not allowed to think too much. The emperor came in the next moment, and Zhang Defa hurriedly knelt down with everyone.
Then the emperor walked up to Lihua and asked something. People further away could not hear clearly, but Zhang Defa could hear it clearly.
The gentleness and distinctive tone of those words made Zhang Defa's eyelids jump heavily, and he immediately realized the emperor's difference in pear blossoms.
Zhang Defa suddenly felt as if he had done something wrong. He broke out in cold sweat and became confused.
At this time, he heard the emperor say that he wanted the dead to keep him company. The meaning and displeasure in those words made Zhang Defa tremble in his heart.
"This slave didn't think well, so I'm going to carry him out."
He hurriedly got up, bowed to apologize, and hurriedly ordered a few people to carry the body out.
In order to show his regret for not doing things well, Zhang Defa also personally helped.
Then he bowed his head and walked to the emperor's side, resolutely expressing his intention to take responsibility for his crimes and say: "Long live my lord, in compliance with your will, I am worried that the Queen Mother is too busy, so I have specially detained all the relevant people, and there are still some servants outside. You see ..."
Yuchi Gong said coldly: "If you don't think carefully, go back and get ten sticks by yourself. Take everyone out of the palace and wait until the message is passed before entering again."
Zhang Defa felt bitter in his heart. Didn't the emperor order everyone to be detained and tried in person?
He was afraid that the supervision would be lax and that some people would commit suicide, so he wanted to bring people into the temple and keep them under strict guard.
But he knew that he must have angered the emperor somewhere.
So without any hesitation, he immediately slapped himself: "Thank you, Lord Long Live, for your grace. I am guilty. The weather is hot. I shouldn't have brought everyone in and bothered the Queen Mother."
Yuchi Gong walked towards the Queen Mother and snorted coldly when he heard the words. Zhang Defa keenly smelled the smell of buttocks blooming.
Sure enough, when he cautiously invited Lihua out, he received a cold glance from the emperor.
Zhang Defa's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and he got everyone else out, leaving Lihua alone.
This change happened very quickly.
It only takes a while for the hall to go from being full of people to being empty again.
The Queen Mother was a little reluctant to react.
She watched the emperor walk in, stopped in front of Lihua, and whispered something, but she couldn't understand his expression.
It stands to reason that Wu Fang'er was poisoned to death, and the emperor came to interrogate the matter late at night. It can be seen that his anger must be murderous.
But it doesn’t seem like it at all, and he seems to be in a good mood.
The Queen Mother wondered in her heart, could it be the calm before the storm?
The emperor likes to keep his anger in his heart. The more angry he is, the calmer he looks.
The emperor's joy and anger cannot be expressed in his appearance, isn't that the case?
The Queen Mother refused to go to the back hall and stood there holding on to Nanny Qin's hand to watch.
When the emperor greeted her, she waved her hand, indicating that everything was fine and that she would take care of the things in front of her first.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that the emperor was calm and drizzle one moment, and then started to have an attack the next moment. Zhang Defa was operated on first, and his aura was completely opposite to that just now.
The Queen Mother's thoughts were indeed like this. The emperor had been holding back just now. As long as there was an opportunity, his anger would be unleashed like rolling thunder.
