Entering the palace
Song Shuqi clenched her teeth slightly. When she saw Lu Rong and the two guardhouses not far away, she knew that she had to rely on herself. When she saw the crowded street outside, she yelled: "everyone, report to the official quickly. The robbers have killed people!"
People who didn't know the reason outside glanced into the room and saw that several people were fighting each other. They didn't dare to delay, so someone ran to the Yamen.
Bichen also learns from Hongxiu, what he catches and throws. For a moment, the masked man really has no way to take them. Song Shuqi recognizes the gap, pulls out the hairpin on her head, holds it in her hand, and bends down to get close to the masked man.
Stab at the thigh!
The masked man cried out in pain, and the other masked people looked distracted. Lu Rong seized the opportunity, knocked down the man in black, rushed over to hold song Shuqi, and said in a low voice: "Miss, go quickly."
A few people rushed to the outside. A few masked people immediately abandoned the two nursing homes and rushed after them. But when they got outside, there were a lot of people in the street. In the blink of an eye, they lost them.
Song Shuqi hides in an alley. Lu Rong looks out at the entrance of the alley. After a while, he says, "it's safe. They've gone."
Song Shuqi was relieved: "I don't know who these people are and why they are chasing me. I don't seem to have offended anyone."
Yu's family is dead, and song Shutong is the only one left. It's not worth worrying. If you hire a killer, she won't get so much money. What's more, the target of these people... Seems to be the envoy of Borneo.
"Anyway, go back to the house first." Although those people had already left, Lu Rong was still not at ease. He was not afraid to fight alone, but he had to protect the young lady. He had some double fists and four hands.
"Let's go." Song Shuqi nodded.
When they got out of the alley, they happened to see the courtyard that was looking around on the street. The two sides met and went to the mansion. Then song Shuqi never went out again until an imperial edict came down.
It turned out that the incident was a big one. Besides, the envoy was dead, and song Shuqi was present at that time. The emperor immediately ordered her to enter the palace.
Seeing off the eunuch, Yue could not help asking, "Qi'er, what's the matter? How are you with the envoy? "
Shangguanyue gloated on one side and said, "who knows, the second elder brother has just left, and the second sister-in-law is unwilling to be lonely."
"Shut up." Song Shuqi didn't give her a good face this time. She gave her a cold rebuke and then said, "grandmother, this is a long story. I'll go to the Palace first and explain it to you later."
Yue was silent for a moment and said, "go."
In the imperial library, the emperor sits at the top, and the next is the right prime minister and a group of ministers. There are not many people, but they are all Pythagorean ministers in the court.
"See your majesty." Song Shuqi was blessed.
The emperor raised his hand slightly: "get up, when I heard that the envoy was killed,
Is it with you? "
"Back to the emperor, it's true." Song Shuqi didn't want to hide. Since the emperor called her here, it means that she had already understood the cause and effect.
Lying only irritates the emperor.
"Well." The emperor's face softened slightly: "well, what was the situation at that time? What's going on? "
Song Shuqi said respectfully, "yes." Then she talked about how she and the envoys knew each other and how they drank tea in a teahouse. She didn't hide anything. There was nothing to be seen. She was magnanimous. The emperor nodded slightly: "I see."
Song Shuqi dropped her eyes and said, "please let the emperor be a mirror. The people's wives don't know why those people want to kill the envoys. After the envoys die, they want to kill the people's wives. Fortunately, the people's wives took several guardhouses with them that day, and they survived."
"Then why did you go out yesterday?"
Song Shuqi had expected that the emperor would ask this question for a long time. She was a little shy and said, "when I return to the emperor, my wife and husband always want to have a child. Although they didn't come, yesterday my wife went out to buy cloth and locked a long life lock."
She took the lock from her arms and put it on.
The emperor saw that it was indeed a new one, and then said, "so it is. So it has nothing to do with you."
"Emperor Shengming." Song Shuqi knelt down with her skirt: "the emperor must believe in the women of the people."
"No, Emperor." The right Prime Minister suddenly made a sound. He took a look at Song Shuqi and said, "emperor, if you say it has nothing to do with her, I don't believe it."
The emperor took a look at the right prime minister and squinted slightly. He couldn't tell the emotion in his eyes: "what do you think the right prime minister should do?"
The right prime minister looked just: "the old minister thinks that there are many doubts about this matter. Since the general's wife has something to do with the killing of the emissary, she can't leave easily. She should be left in the palace for the time being. When to find out the truth and then let her go back to the palace can also be used as protection."
Song Shuqi frowned slightly: "emperor, people's women are human women. There's no reason not to go home. If it's about the case, you can summon it at any time, and the woman will be there immediately. "
"But it's about you. You can't go." The right phase seems to be
It has become a habit to give orders. He frowned and said, "if you stay here, it will be more convenient for us to investigate."
Song Shuqi is worried in her heart, but she can't quarrel with Youxiang in public. It's not good for shangguanjin's reputation.
At this time, the emperor said, "the right prime minister is right, but it's not right that general Zhenyuan is out of the army, but his wife is detained in the palace."
As soon as the words came out, the right Prime Minister knew that the emperor was going to protect her, so he had to say, "what the emperor said is that the old minister's thinking is not right."
The emperor glanced at him faintly and waved his hand: "OK, I have my own decision on this matter. You all step down."
"I'm leaving." The ministers bowed down.
Song Shuqi didn't stay either. After blessing her body, she turned and left. After leaving the palace, she was quietly relieved and went back to the house with her two servant girls.
But I don't know why, I feel that the eyes of the people in the mansion are a little strange, especially when I just enter the mansion, I see shangguanyue face to face. She doesn't want to pay attention to it, but shangguanyue says with a smile: "second sister-in-law is back."
"What's the matter?" Song Shuqi stands still.
Shangguanyue said, "yes, second sister-in-law, what did you do in the palace? Did the emperor say how to punish you? "
"How do you know the emperor will punish me?" Song Shuqi's eyes were cold, and she closed her sleeves: "in any case, it has nothing to do with you."
After that, I passed her by.
Shangguanyue stamped her feet, rolled her eyes and muttered, "what is it? I don't know who's pretending to be here." Song Shuqi back to the room, sensitive to the atmosphere in the house are not big
By the way, but now she has no mind to pay attention, full of the drawings.
What does that paper mean?
Seeing her pondering hard, Bi Chen said, "Miss, do you want to ask Miss Gong? She has a lot of knowledge, maybe she will know."
Song Shuqi's eyes brightened: "yes, I didn't think of it. Bichen, you are my good girl."
She patted Bichen on the shoulder, and a smile gradually appeared on her face: "let's go. It's just beautiful. Let's see how Chang Liu is doing."
When Gong shangliu woke up, he had never been anywhere. He was in the room all day and felt bored. When he saw song Shuqi coming, he said, "you're here. I'm bored to death."
Song Shuqi took her hand and led her into the room: "this is not to let you have a good rest, you are also a restless temperament."
"It's true," said Liu, who was in the palace with a bitter smile
When they came into the room and sat down, song Shuqi took out one of the three drawings and put it on the table for her to see: "do you think it looks familiar?"
Gongshangliu looked carefully and shook his head: "I haven't seen such a picture. What's the matter? But what's so strange about this picture? "
Song Shuqi was disappointed: "that's it."
She collected the drawing and didn't give an explanation. It was a matter of great importance. The fewer people she knew, the better. She didn't want to implicate Gong shangliu.
Although Gong shangliu didn't understand the reason, she could see the knot in her heart. She said in a warm voice, "no matter what happens, I believe you can handle it well."
"Thank you." Song Shuqi said with a smile.
If she couldn't get the answer, she didn't stay any longer. She was really in no mood. Before she left, Gong shangliu kept her for a while, but she declined.
Back in the mansion, she sat by the window and pondered, looking at the three drawings. She remembered what Yu said about her mother's life experience. She pursed her lips and said in her worried eyes: "Bichen, clean up, I want to go out."
"Where is miss going?"
Song Shuqi said, "Borneo."
Bi Chen widened his eyes and said in a hurry: "what are you going to do there? It's so far away. You can't go there. I won't let you go. "
"Green mark." Song Shuqi turned around, took her hand and said in a low voice, "you have followed me for the longest time, and you know what my character is. I have to find out one thing, and I have to do it myself."
Bichen opened his mouth: "but..."
"No, but." Song Shuqi face firm, no doubt: "Bichen, you help me, hide all the people in the house, can hide a day count a day."
Bi trace is full of flustered, always feel like this doesn't work, voice inside all take
Crying cavity: "Miss, this is too dangerous, you are pregnant, or let the maidservant accompany you, if anything, the maidservant can also protect you."
"No way." Song Shuqi walked to the door, closed the door, lowered her voice and said: "everyone knows that you are my confidant servant girl. If you stay here, you can help me delay." Bichen's face is full of worries.
Song Shuqi said: "don't worry, I will take Lu Rong with me. He can protect me. If you have something to do, you can send a carrier pigeon to me."
Although Bichen doesn't agree, it's useless. Song Shuqi decides
In the evening, song Shuqi and Lu Rong rode away quietly from the back door of the upper government and headed for Suzhou.
After a night's drive, Lu Rong finally arrived outside Suzhou. Seeing her pale face, Lu Rong said, "Miss, come down and have a rest."
Song Shuqi shook her head: "no need to go to the city."
Lu Rong is used to following orders, but he is obedient even though he is worried. They rode to the city. Just then, an arrow came through the air behind them.
"Be careful, miss!" Lu Rong flew over. He threw song Shuqi under the horse, but he remembered that the young lady was pregnant, so he put himself under the horse
.
"Are you all right, miss?"
Song Shuqi lifted up dizzily, shook her head, fixed her eyes, and suddenly changed her face: "come on, get on the horse and leave here, someone is chasing us."
