Chapter 346

It's darker in July than in June.

When the emperor came out of the imperial study, there was only one last touch of gray and blue in the sky. When he walked back to Huaqing Palace, there was no light left.

As night fell, the stars shone in the sky.

When the emperor entered the Huaqing Palace, people saluted him one after another.

He asked, "is the princess going to sleep?"

A little eunuch said, "if you return to your majesty, there is no such thing."

The emperor said to Duke Wei, "I'll go and see the empress. Go back by yourself."

Old slave is not tired.

Well.

Duke Wei had no choice but to answer: "yes."

The emperor went to Princess Jing's bedroom. She was kneeling in front of the shrine, holding the beads in one hand and tapping the wooden fish in the other. She closed her eyes and recited the Buddhist scriptures devoutly.

The emperor did not disturb, quietly waiting for her to knock the wooden fish.

After mammy Cai helped her up, she seemed to see the shadow on the ground. She turned her head and said, "when did your majesty come? How long have you been here? "

The emperor said, "I just came here. After listening to my mother's reading the Buddhist Scriptures for a while, my heart suddenly calmed down a lot."

Princess Jing looked at him and said, "is there something bothering your majesty recently?"

Of course, there are rainstorms, natural disasters, bandits and man-made disasters. I heard that Chen's border is ready to move again, and the murderer who secretly assassinated Princess Jing has never been able to see.

In front of several have Zhao country's Wen Chen Wu general to deal with, only finally this murderer let the emperor helpless.

"It's nothing. I'm just a little tired of working hard on state affairs." The emperor decided not to let Princess Jing worry.

"Mother Cai, go to my room and bring the tranquilizing incense." Quiet too imperial concubine orders a way.

"Yes." Mother Cai stepped down.

The emperor helped Princess Jing to Qiuhua Pavilion.

They sat down on the chair.

The little maid of honor offered dim sum and flower tea, which Princess Jing liked. The emperor liked Longjing, but he could not drink strong tea at night.

"Go and get some fruit." Said Princess Jing.

"Yes." The little maid turned and brought a plate of fresh grapes and some delicious pears.

Princess Jing plans to peel a pear for the emperor, but as soon as she picks up the dagger on the table, the teacup in the emperor's hand falls with a bang.

Imperial concubine Jing was slightly shocked: "Your Majesty, what's the matter with you? Is it hot? "

"No, I'm not sure." Said the emperor, pinching a cold sweat.

What's the matter with him?

Static mother imperial concubine is just to cut a pear for him, but flashed in his mind the scene that static mother imperial concubine raises a knife to stab him in the nightmare.

I'm really tired recently. My brain is not working well.

Princess Jing put down her dagger and pear and took a handkerchief to wipe the tea on the emperor's skirt, but the emperor unconsciously tilted back.

Static too imperial concubine's hand is stiff in mid air, Leng Leng ground looks at him.

The emperor realized his gaffe and secretly scolded himself for being unfilial. How could he chill his mother's heart?

He took the handkerchief from Princess Jing and said, "don't get your mother's clothes wet. I'll do it myself."

Static too imperial concubine smile: "good."

Fortunately, the Emperor didn't make any more blunders. The mother and son had a good conversation. It was only when Duke Wei came to report that the old man offered wine to see her that the emperor got up to say goodbye to Princess Jing.

Quiet too imperial concubine way: "soothe the spirit fragrant my person to send to your bedchamber temple."

The emperor said with a smile, "thank you very much

The emperor went to the imperial study.

The old toaster made a respectful salute: "minister, meet your majesty!"

The emperor went around to his desk and sat down. He hummed coldly, "OK, don't make these wasted gifts. What's the matter with entering the palace so late?"

"Your Majesty, Jiao Jiao has been assassinated!"

"What The emperor stood up abruptly. "How could she be assassinated? Where are the people? Are you hurt? "

Old wine secretly sigh, you have conscience, but also know to care about Jiao Jiao.

"Don't worry, your majesty. These things happened several days ago. Her injury is not serious."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, but soon frowned again“ these How many times has she been assassinated? "

"Three times," he said

In fact, it was two times. One time, she went to the temple with Princess Rui and was rescued by King Ning; Another time is not long Ying Wei, met Gu Changqing.

Lao Jijiu didn't intend to tell the emperor that the other party was the Dragon shadow guard. Xiao LIULANG told him one thing before he left. It turns out that the Dragon shadow guard of the former Emperor was not only left to his majesty, but also to Princess Xinyang.

As for whether there are others, Xiao LIULANG is not clear.

I dare not say that there is absolutely no sacrificial wine.

Your majesty doesn't seem to know that there are other dragon shadow guards in the state of Zhao, but it's hard to say whether Princess Jing, an old fox, knows.

If she knew, and insisted that it was not her own dragon shadow guard, wouldn't it involve the innocent?

The little miracle doctor suffered so many assassinations that the emperor's face became cold: "why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The old wine man looked so wronged: "it's the girl who didn't tell me! If I hadn't found a new scar on her hand today, I didn't know she had suffered so much. Gu Duwei is also confused. She helps her keep such things from me! "

It's like what brother and sister will do, they are all sulky.

The emperor frowned.

The old man then said, "Your Majesty must have heard of that time when he was saved by his highness King Ning."

The emperor knew about this, but he didn't think about Gu Jiao. He thought that Gu Jiao was going to the Rui palace.

The old toaster said: "the second time was a few days ago when a young man lied that someone in his family was ill and asked Jiaojiao to go out to see a doctor. On the way, she was ambushed. Fortunately, Du Wei Gu arrived in time, and Jiaojiao had a powerful concealed weapon in her hand, so she managed to bluff each other."

The emperor was slightly surprised: "even Gu Changqing is not the opponent of the assassin?"

"Yes. There is a very powerful killer among them. I don't know where he came from. " "As for the third time, just now, we met an assassin on our way to the palace. Fortunately, we didn't have that powerful assassin this time, otherwise we would die."

This is a fake, purely for the purpose of superposition.

"What are you doing in the palace so late?" Asked the emperor.

The old toaster sighed, "I took her to report her assassination to your majesty. How could I know she was assassinated again? Fortunately, there was no danger. "

"What about her?" Asked the emperor anxiously.

"She..." he said with a dry smile, looking embarrassed. "She said that her majesty hates her now and will not stand out for her. She might as well go to the Empress Dowager."

This provocation, properly angered the emperor, the emperor slapped on the table: "who said I would not stand up for her! I am so untrustworthy in her heart

Isn't that blind?

Cough, cough.

Too much, too much.

He is a minister. He shouldn't be so insulting to his majesty.

Ever since I became a "father" to your majesty, I can't stop my courage.

It's not good, it's not good!

The old toaster straightened his face and said, "Your Majesty, I dare to guess that the person who murdered the princess and the person who murdered Jiao Jiao are the same group."

The emperor asked suspiciously, "how can I see it?"

The old wine man boldly looked at the Emperor: "Your Majesty, if something happens to the princess, who is the first person you suspect?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang.

The answer is almost there.

Last time, the murderer disguised as Gu Jiao went to assassinate imperial concubine Jing. He wanted to blame empress dowager Zhuang. Unfortunately, the emperor saw through the move.

The emperor still has a lingering fear in his memory. He clenched his fist: "but what does this have to do with Jiaojiao? If something goes wrong with her, I will not doubt that she is the Empress Dowager. Will the Empress Dowager doubt that she is me? "

The old toaster shook his head: "that's not true. However, it is also an indisputable fact that the relationship between your majesty and the Empress Dowager has eased because of Jiao Jiao. "

The emperor joked, "who has relaxed with her?"

The old toaster ignored his Majesty's insincere and bluff expression, and said, "what kind of person is it? Your majesty knows, but I won't say much. Jiaojiao is the only one who is loved by both her majesty and the Empress Dowager. When she dies, there is no possibility of reconciliation between her majesty and the Empress Dowager. All this is aimed at alienating your majesty from the Empress Dowager! "

The emperor was silent.

If you think about it carefully, it does make some sense.

The old sacrificial wine hit the railway while it was hot: "LIULANG told me that the princess was thrown into the Taiye pool by the assassin. Your Majesty must be looking for the news of the assassin. I don't know if your majesty has eyes."

"No Mention this, the emperor's head is big.

He looked up at the roof and sighed again: "it seems that the assassin realized that he was trying to scare the snake. In order to avoid the limelight, he completely hid himself. The assassin was very cunning and didn't leave any clues. But your majesty, are you really going to sit and wait? If the murderer doesn't get rid of him, the life of the empress and Jiao Jiao will be hanging on the tip of the knife

This is a thorough stab in the emperor's weakness.

Apart from his son, the people he cares about most are princess Jing and Gu Jiao?

He can't let them do anything!

The emperor looked at the old wine and asked, "well, what should I do?"

The old sacrificial wine solemnly said: "lead the snake out of the cave! As long as your majesty is willing to cooperate with me, I will certainly have a way to show her true shape! "
