Luo Qingyan was startled, with a look of disbelief in his eyes. After a while, he said, "Mrs., are you joking?"
There was no smile on Yun Shang's face: "Your Majesty, I am not joking. I just thought of a way. This way is called, put yourself to death and then live..."
Early the next morning, just as Luo Qingyan got up to go to court, Yun Shang got up right after. She ordered Qian Zui to find some regular clothes for her and combed her hair into a very simple bun.
The secret guard asked to see him, and Yun Shang let the secret guard into the inner hall.
Yun Shang raised her eyes and said softly: "Yesterday, I ordered three things in total. How did they go?"
The secret guard quickly raised his hand and replied: "Master, the people in the secret cell have been safely sent out of the palace. Ning Qian also received a reply an hour ago. Everything is fine. Last night, the master asked his subordinates to eavesdrop.
If so, I will write it down one by one. Please allow me to repeat it to you."
Yun Shang nodded gently: "Say."
"Yesterday, a subordinate hid on the roof of Huaixiu Palace, uncovered a tile, and saw Qi Ruihai entering Concubine Wan's bedroom in Huaixiu Palace..."
There was not a single palace attendant in the dormitory.
The Nineteenth Prince was lying on the small bed in the room. Concubine Wan sat beside the small bed and watched. When she heard the footsteps behind her, she turned around and looked over, and then said very familiarly: "Are you here?"
Qi Ruihai nodded lightly, hurriedly took a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Concubine Wan. He sighed and said: "Now that the queen's hands are stretched longer and longer in the harem, I have nothing to do with it."
You have to be careful about everything. I managed to get these few pills, and they will last for about half a year. I heard that the emperor and empress will leave the palace in a few days, so I will get some more by then."
Concubine Wan looked a little pale, nodded repeatedly, and carefully opened the brocade handkerchief. On top of the brocade handkerchief, there were several black balls lying quietly.
Concubine Wan woke up the nineteenth prince who was sleeping on the small bed, and then coaxed him softly: "Come on, An'an, eat a candy ball."
The 19th prince's complexion seemed much better, with a faint rosiness on his face. Hearing what his mother-in-law said, he obediently took the meatballs, put them in his mouth, bit them into pieces and ate them.
After eating the meatball, he yawned again and fell asleep.
Qi Ruihai looked at the sleeping Nineteenth Prince, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, why do you have to be so defensive?"
Hearing this, Concubine Wan shook her head repeatedly and gritted her teeth and said: "I am just such a child, and I must protect him. There are overt and covert fights for that position in this palace, and I don't want my An'an to become a victim inexplicably.
"
When Qi Ruihai heard what Concubine Wan said, she stopped trying to persuade her.
After a long time, Concubine Wan raised her eyes again: "I heard that the Queen wants to win over you?"
Qi Ruihai nodded lightly: "She did mention this to me before."
After hearing the words, Concubine Wan quickly stood up and looked at Qi Ruihai, a light flashed in her eyes: "Why didn't you agree to her? Now the queen is very powerful. Although there are all kinds of rumors outside, I can't see it.
You haven't hurt her at all. You must not be an easy person to get along with. If you keep responding, she will probably think that you are against her. In that case, she will be in trouble and pay attention to you everywhere.
"
Qi Ruihai frowned and said after a while: "I know it all, but I listen to what she wants. If I agree to her, she seems to not want me to stay here to serve as the supervisor. If I no longer stay here to serve as the supervisor..."
Qi Ruihai glanced at the few black pills spread out on the brocade handkerchief, "I'm afraid we won't be able to get these things anymore."
When Concubine Wan heard what Qi Ruihai said, a look of guilt seemed to flash through her eyes. She pondered for a long time before saying, "It's us, mother and son, who have dragged you down."
Hearing this, Qi Ruihai quickly said: "I have been looking for you for so many years just to compensate you for the suffering you have suffered over the years. Why are you talking about this? It's getting late. I'll go back first."
Concubine Wan nodded, and Qi Ruihai left the dormitory and left Huaixiu Palace.
Yun Shang listened to the secret guard's detailed explanation, but some doubts flashed in her eyes. What is the relationship between Concubine Wan and Qi Ruihai? Qi Ruihai brought the food that Concubine Wan gave to the nineteenth prince.
What?
Yun Shang stood up and walked a few steps back and forth in the palace, but suddenly she remembered that when she called Qi Ruihai to the Weiyang Palace to deliberately win over her, Qi Ruihai once said that he was unwilling to leave that palace because of the eunuch.
Because her sister was sold into the palace, he came here to find her.
And just now the secret guard said that Qi Ruihai told Concubine Wan yesterday that he had been looking for her for many years just to compensate for the suffering she had suffered.
Yun Shang's steps paused slightly. Could it be that Concubine Wan is Qi Ruihai's sister?
However, if Concubine Wan was sold into the palace as a maid, how could she become Xia Huanyu's concubine?
"Qianzui, please send a message to Qinyi and ask her to help find out about Concubine Wan's background and background." Yun Shang raised her eyes and told Qianzui.
After Qian Zui responded, Yun Shang stood up and said, "I want to find a way to get out of the palace."
"Ah?" Qianzui was stunned, "Why did you leave the palace for what?"
Yun Shang raised the corners of her lips and smiled: "I want to see a good show, but I can't go out as a queen. You go and find me a set of clothes for a palace maid."
Qian Zui responded hesitantly, and hurriedly ran to pick up a set of clothes for a palace maid. Yun Shang changed into the clothes, and took a white silk scarf to cover her face, and the two of them walked to the palace gate together.
.
The guards at the gate of the palace stopped the two of them. Qianzuo quickly took out Yunshang's token and whispered: "Brother, guard, we are the maids of Weiyang Palace. This maid has acne on her face, and the queen is afraid that she will infect it."
If someone else, let your slaves take her out of the palace."
Upon hearing this, the guard looked at the token in Qian Zui's hand, waved his hand, and let them go.
After leaving the palace, they went together to change into a set of regular clothes and went straight to Qianshui Yiren Pavilion.
Qianliu was in the Qianshui Yiren Pavilion, and Qianyin was talking to her. When they saw Yun Shang coming, they were both a little surprised, and quickly stood up and moved a chair for Yun Shang.
Yun Shang waved his hand and said, "How are you preparing?"
Qian Yin quickly responded: "Master, everything is in order, we are just waiting for noon."
Yun Shang nodded lightly, chatted with the two for a while, then stood up and left Qianshui Yiren Pavilion, taking Qian Zui to Changshun Street leading to Caishikou.
Changshun Street was already surrounded by people. Seeing this situation, Qian Zui frowned slightly, looked around, and then said to Yun Shang: "Master, you can see it from above the restaurant, let's go there
Go up there."
Yun Shang responded, and the master and servant went to the restaurant together, found a private room by the window, and looked at the bustling market below.
Not long after, the sound of gongs was heard in the distance, and then an official came to clear the way, dividing the crowds on the street to two sides and stopping them. Not long after, Yun Shang saw Li Qianmo riding a horse to escort the official.
He walked over. Not far behind him, a prison van followed.
The people below were all talking, but Yun Shang was a little far away and couldn't hear what they were saying clearly.
The prison car slowly came over, and Yun Shang saw the person on the prison car, who was Zheng Qiming. Yun Shang glanced around, but he already saw a few familiar faces.
The prison car arrived at the restaurant where Yun Shang was, and someone shouted: "Beat the traitors."
The people around him took all kinds of things and threw them at Zheng Qiming. In the chaos, someone suddenly jumped up and landed on the prison car where Zheng Qiming was. With a wave of the sword in his hand,
The iron chains on the prison car were cut off.
"Someone has robbed the prison van!" A cry of surprise rang out, and the people below dispersed, scattering the officials who originally separated the crowd. There was chaos below. In the chaos, several people pulled Zheng Qiming together and flew away.
He left and disappeared into the distance.
"Catch the assassin, quickly, catch the assassin." Li Qianmo's face was full of panic, but if you look carefully, you can see the calmness flashing in his eyes.
"Master, it's done." Qianzuo whispered in Yun Shang's ear.
Yun Shang nodded and said with a smile: "Well, it's done. Zheng Qiming has been kidnapped."
Yun Shang took a sip of tea and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. After a while, the door was opened, Qian Liu walked in, and closed the door smoothly: "Master."
Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, with a gentle look on her face: "This is done very well. Remember, after arriving in Liucang, if Xia Houjing asks, just say that you were playing in Jincheng.
I accidentally saw this execution and saw that the person on the prison car was someone beside him, so I sent someone to rescue Zheng Qiming. Since Xia Houjing wants your uncle, he will definitely not
If I doubt you, maybe I will be grateful to you."
"Yes, I understand, slave." Qianliu responded softly with a smile.
Yun Shang's eyes fell on her face, and after pondering for a long time, he said: "After this matter is done, you can come to Lingxi to find me and follow me back to the palace."
A few tears appeared in Qianliu's eyes, and she quickly saluted and said, "Thank you, my concubine."
It was Shenshi when Yun Shang returned to the palace. Luo Qingyan did not come back so early. Yun Shang changed her clothes and was about to take a nap when she heard the secret guard's signal. Qianzui quickly opened the window and a group of
The paper ball was thrown in from the window, and he picked it up with a small drink, opened it and looked at it carefully, then quickly turned to look at Yun Shang, with a bit of joy in his eyes: "Mother, last night, the Ministry of Works
Lord Shangshu Tian, Lord Taishi Ling Xue, and several ministers of the court were discussing rebellion in Longfeng Tower, but they were caught by Prince Xian. All the witnesses were found, and several letters were written to Xia Houjing.
And Cangjue Qingsu’s letter. This crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason has been committed.” (To be continued)
