However, what the Empress Dowager said at the moment overturned his previous conjecture.
"Do you really think that a young woman can easily control the imperial palace? Your father is no ordinary emperor
The Empress Dowager got up and said earnestly.
"Grandmother, what are you going to say?"
Chu Jiyao didn't think so before.
The emperor was very ill and he had not seen him since.
The Queen's obstruction and the Taiyi's statement made him believe that his father was hidden by the queen.
At this moment, however, we know the truth.
"Your father is really ill. He was taken out of the palace."
"Since you know everything, why didn't you stop it?" Chu Jiyao can't believe it.
The Empress Dowager sighed deeply.
"How can I stop it? How can I stop it? What's more, the Empress Dowager is the emperor's grandmother. Can she harm him? "
Yes, everyone thinks so, but the fact is so ironic.
When the Empress Dowager returned to the palace, the emperor did not return.
"Where is the father now?"
Since the Empress Dowager returned to the palace, Chu Jiyao had not seen her. She was refused to see her several times.
"I don't know. Now, the Empress Dowager doesn't see anyone."
"What does grandmother want to do when she tells me this now?"
In fact, not only the people outside, but also the whole palace is under the control of the Empress Dowager. Although she did not show up, the people around her are not easy.
Xu Zhen, the commander of the Imperial Guard, has long been stranded outside.
The guards of the four gates have already changed. The whole imperial city looks like a bloodbath, but it doesn't leak.
All this was in everyone's eyes, but no one had a way to stop her.
"I doubt she'll do it to you."
The Empress Dowager quietly looks at Chu Jiyao, and her eyes are full of worry.
"It's impossible. What's in it for her to kill us? Does she still want to be a queen? "
Chu Jiyao never had the heart to fight for the reserve, but step by step to now, it is not easy to give up.
If he still has a little affection for the empress dowager, but the legendary empress dowager has no affection at all. What's more, this woman is so mysterious that few people have seen her since she returned to the Imperial City, but she has been able to call the wind and rain in the whole empire.
, "keep silent, don't talk nonsense. Now there are her eyeliners everywhere. Don't you want to live?"
The Empress Dowager clapped twice on Chu Jiyao's shoulder, indicating that he was not allowed to talk.
"Grandma is too worried. She says that she can find any reason to fight me. If she doesn't want me to die, no matter what."
"Have you seen the queen?"
"No, I'm afraid she's the most dangerous one at the moment."
No matter how deep the queen is hidden, Chu Jiyao has gradually found out the power behind her in recent years.
With so many spirits, and with the current situation in mind, we can imagine that the queen and the Empress Dowager have been colluding with each other for a long time.
Unfortunately, it seems that the two people's roads are different. They are just making use of each other. Now that they are at the fork, it's time to give up one.
"Since you know all this in your heart, I won't say much. Don't go to provoke the Empress Dowager recently. The envoys of the other four countries and ten places have all set out on their way, and they will soon arrive at the imperial city. Let's wait for this matter to pass."
When the Empress Dowager said this, she waved him back first.
Chu Jiyao doesn't think so.
"I'm afraid my grandmother took it for granted. The Empress Dowager has been preparing for such a long time. It must be for the reunion of the five countries. I'm afraid something big will happen."
But no matter what the two of them think, it's just speculation.
There is no way to deal with it.
In the whole Imperial City, I'm afraid none of the forces except the Empress Dowager can sleep peacefully.
The tense atmosphere in the Imperial City lasted for four months.
In the golden autumn of October, there is a good harvest outside the city.
Many strangers have come outside the gate in recent days.
After that, they are full of big people.
Envoys from other four countries and ten places have arrived one after another.
At this time, the imperial city began, with a relaxed atmosphere, and restored the bustle and noise of the past.
On both sides of the street, as in the Spring Festival, the decoration was jubilant.
Everything is to welcome people from other countries.
The choice of the imperial host fell to the crown prince.
The eldest prince took Yizhi in a daze, and hurried to arrange a matter.
There is no objection to his arrangement.
Now it's on the second floor of the restaurant.
By the window sat a man and a woman.
The man's wanton, the woman's ancient spirit surprised.
She turned another wine glass in her hand, and the other hand supported her chin, but her eyes looked at the prince and others who passed downstairs."Fortunately, you didn't choose him at the beginning, otherwise it would be time to lead such a life of serving others?"
The man didn't mean anything and made fun of her.
"I haven't seen him for a long time."
"If you don't go down and say hello, he should be happy to see you."
"Qian, if you want to die, don't take me with you. I haven't lived enough!"
Qianhe shrugged his shoulders. Just at this time, Xiaoer brought food.
Interrupted the conversation between them.
"Well, well, I said something wrong. Please have a good meal. It's an apology."
These two people are Qian Yao and Xiao Ting who came back to the imperial city from Li city.
Downstairs, the prince's carriage soon disappeared at the end of the road.
Xiao Ting did not go to see him. It has been three days since she returned to the imperial city. She did not go to see anyone, nor would she go to see anyone, including her father and aunt.
Xiao Ting fills her stomach, pats her chopsticks on the table, looks at Qian He and asks, "where is the Lord?"
On the first day when Xiaoting returned to the Imperial City, she went to jiuwangfu.
One of the furnishings is as old as before, and the doorkeeper is the same housekeeper.
There is nothing else.
There was no figure of the ninth prince in other courtyard. Even the underground palace, she tried to get in.
But everything was empty.
It was as if the ninth Lord had never come back.
Qian He shook his head and solemnly told her that he didn't find any information.
"What shall we do now?"
If it's not for Qian Yao, Xiao Ting wants to rush into the palace to find the woman.
But she also knew that all this was not done by the queen.
At the moment, it's good. If you want to find someone to vent your anger, you don't know who it is.
"Don't worry, there will always be a way. I don't believe it. How many years has she been operating in the imperial city? Can you keep the information secret? "
"Forget it. It's no use asking you. Go back to see little ten first."
Xiao Ting is a little upset. She didn't plan to take Xiao Xi Tong on the road, but the child can't live or die, and she has to promise with a lot of excuses.
But I didn't expect that he began to feel sick soon after he was on the road. When he arrived at the Imperial City, he was even worse. He fainted directly. If it wasn't for the doctor, it wouldn't be a big deal. Xiao Ting thought that Xiao Shi would die soon.
"Don't worry, typical acclimatization."
"That's not your brother. Of course you don't worry." Xiao Ting is not angry with him.
He felt his nose and stopped talking in line with the principle of not caring with women.
What they didn't expect was that Xiao Xin had disappeared when they returned to their temporary residence.
Xiao Ting is angry and urgent. She shouts Xiao ER and asks him what is the situation?
As a result, the second child looked at them in a daze and said, "it was the doctor who said that the young master was seriously ill and needed to be taken back to recuperate. You agreed."
The whole person is in a state of obscurity.
"What about people? Where did you go? How long have you been away? "
Qian He quickly stops Xiao Ting, who is about to start, and asks quickly.
That small two also was frightened, stammered to point to behind the way, "just, just left."
Without saying a word to Qian He, Xiao Ting leaves Xiao ER and goes out in a hurry.
There was no accident. They took a shortcut and went over the wall to see Xiao Xin.
Is one of the people carrying on the shoulder, a line of four people in a hurry.
"Leave people behind."
Xiao Ting didn't speak. As soon as she opened her mouth, the four of them didn't even look back and ran away.
People come and go on the street, Xiao ting and Qian He separate action, after catching up with the four people.
But found that they are not carrying Xiao Xin, was transferred.
"What about people?" Xiaoting worried, small ten is still in a coma, was taken away like this, also don't know for what.
These four people pour also simply, didn't wait for her to ask the words to finish at all, neck a crooked, direct pharynx Qi.
Xiao Ting directly silly eyes, silly looking at a thousand, this is a few meaning?
Thousand is also a face of helplessness.
He checked the situation of the four people and told Xiao ting that they were poisoned and died.
"So simple?" Xiao Ting really doesn't understand these people. In the past, she only saw this kind of thing in TV dramas, but she didn't expect it to happen to herself.
The most important thing is that now Xiao Xin is taken away, she doesn't know who did it.
"It seems that they don't want us to know. Has your brother offended anyone before?"
Xiao Ting glared at him, "my little darling has always been unable to get out of the gate. Who can you offend?"
“……” Qian He wants to say that if the gate doesn't go out, the gate doesn't move. Is that a good way to describe a girl?
This is a decent young man in your family."If it's not him, it's who you've offended. Someone knows your whereabouts, so they tied your brother?"
Qian's analysis is normal, but Xiao Ting always thinks something is wrong.
"Our whereabouts back this time are very secret, even Li Mo and they don't know the specific situation. How can others know?"
"That's true. This is good. Chu Li hasn't found it yet. Your brother has lost it again. It seems that you are busy now."
Xiao Ting rolled her eyes to him and looked at him suspiciously, "how do I feel that you are gloating?"
"This is absolutely your illusion. We are grasshoppers on the same rope now."
Xiao Ting scratched her head and ears for a long time.
In the end, I didn't think of a way, so I had to go back first.
All of a sudden, a lot of big people came to the Imperial City, and there were more and more guards. The patrol shuttled around the streets day and night.
However, until the evening, Xiao Ting did not hear any news about the four people's death.
