My money-loving little lady

Concubine Lan was brought back to her palace under house arrest without any explanation. At this time, the emperor summoned Zhang Suiyin, the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, for questioning.

"The reason I sent you to ask questions is because I want to know whether anyone else has access to these things when you are sending the cloths to each bedroom."

Zhang Suiyin was seen kneeling on the ground, shaking her head and saying, "No, to report back to Your Majesty, the one who delivered things to each palace today is my disciple Xiao Fangzi. He is the safest person in doing things. He will definitely not get anything anywhere.

Oleander powder? What’s more, the slave had been following the team at that time, and indeed no one else could get close to these pieces of cloth."

Hearing what he said, the emperor thought for a long time, and finally shook his head and waved his hands and said, "Okay, you can go down."

Hearing what Eunuch Zhang said, Queen Sima was very happy, thinking that this was the best chance to overthrow Concubine Lan, but even so, she could not show any joy in her heart. So, she pretended to be confused, "

So, is it really Sister Lan who did it? I always feel that Sister Lan is pure and kind-hearted and would never do such a thing. Your Majesty still needs to send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly."

Hearing what she said, the emperor suddenly looked at the queen in front of him with some doubts. The queen was frightened by his stare and asked pretending not to understand, "Did I say something wrong?"

"You didn't say anything wrong. I really should investigate this matter thoroughly." At this time, an idea suddenly came to the emperor's mind. He seemed to understand. After spending so long with Concubine Lan, he knew that this woman had always been pampered and arrogant.

However, she would not harm a child who has no interest in her for no reason. After all, her son has reached adulthood, and even if the emperor dotes on the child of a noble person, he is not qualified in terms of his status in the court.

He was quarreling with King Yu. And judging from Concubine Lan's attitude just now, he didn't think Concubine Lan was lying to him. So this matter must have been framed by someone. What was the purpose? Naturally, it was to seduce Concubine Lan.
However, there are many people in the palace who are enemies with Concubine Lan. Apart from the Queen Mother, most of them are offended, and the Queen is among them. So, who is related to this matter? Who are the people involved behind it?<

/p>

He suddenly remembered what Duke An Guo had said to him in the front hall. The officials in the DPRK and the Central Government had been a little strange recently. It was approaching August 15th and the Queen Mother's birthday was approaching. Officials from various places were moving around very obviously. The direction of the wind in the DPRK was too well-informed, so he

For example, the emperor originally planned to go to the Queen's Palace that day, but suddenly changed his route to Concubine Lan's Palace. The next day, the nephew of the Empress in the DPRK presented some rather resentful memorials.

He suspected that Sima Ruozhao must be involved with the previous dynasty.

Thinking of this, what happened a few years ago suddenly appeared in his mind, the fire, the woman's sad smile, and the child's cry...

"Chen'er..." He murmured in a low voice, feeling very depressed.

Eunuch Qi saw something was wrong with the emperor's expression and quickly said to the concubines, "Your Majesty has been very tired these days due to official duties." Then he patted the emperor's side gently and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

After hearing Eunuch Qi's reminder, the emperor reacted and said with a tired look, "I'd like to trouble Grandma Sun and the Queen Mother to report the situation today."

I saw Grandma Sun saying calmly, "I understand, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself. You are weak and the Queen Mother has been thinking about you a lot lately."

The emperor forced a smile and said, "Yes. You must listen to your mother's advice."

Then, he turned to the queen in front of him and said, "The queen is also tired today. Let's go back to the palace to rest first. We will discuss it after the noble lady wakes up."

Although the queen was a little dissatisfied and didn't understand why he reacted this way. But the emperor was the emperor after all, and she was not qualified to instruct the emperor on what to do? So she had to reluctantly say goodbye, "I obey the decree."

After leaving Xianfu Palace, the emperor was still distracted and wandered back and forth not knowing where he was going. Eunuch Qi was a little worried behind him and shouted to the emperor, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, wait for me, your servant. Your Majesty, please be careful."

! Your Majesty, are you going to some empress’s palace? Your Majesty, you are exposed late at night, so be careful with your feet.”

However, the emperor seemed to turn a deaf ear to his words and just continued to stagger through the night. Seeing that the road ahead was getting smaller and smaller, Qi Min had no choice but to let the little eunuchs behind him wait outside while he carried a lamp.

Deng hurriedly chased after him. Just like that, he walked up and down the alley in the imperial garden, and stopped after walking for an unknown amount of time.

Seeing the emperor in front of him stop, Qi Min breathed a sigh of relief, ran to the emperor and put a simple thin shirt on him, "Your Majesty, although it is summer, the temperature difference at night is also big, your Majesty still needs to take care of yourself.

, let’s go back.”

But the emperor kept looking ahead dreamily. Qi Min followed the emperor's eyes and looked over. Suddenly, he became silent, because what caught his eyes was the Chuxiu Palace where the former queen lived.

p>

There was a fire that completely burned the magnificent Chuxiu Palace. Although later, the Queen Mother felt that it would not look good if the Chuxiu Palace was burned to ashes and lay aside like this, so she arranged for her servants to redo the Chuxiu Palace.

It was repaired. However, it has been left uninhabited for so many years. Chuxiu Palace has long become a deserted appearance, and even has some ghostly atmosphere.

Qi Min frowned, knowing that the emperor in front of him must be thinking of the former empress Cheng Feiyan. He didn't want to offend the emperor's brow, so he quickly pulled him and said, "Your Majesty, there is no one here, let's go back."

The emperor did not follow him back, but walked straight to the door of Chuxiu Palace. He stroked the burned black pillar in front of the door, recalling the words he promised Cheng Feiyan. "Yan'er,

When we get old, I will have a garden with you in the suburbs like now. I will plant vegetables in the garden, and you will show me the sword dance in the yard of your house. We, husband and wife, will sing in harmony, raise eyebrows together, and spend time together.

Live the rest of your wonderful life."

The memory of that time was still vivid in his mind, but now things have changed. He frowned and remembered that day, when the Duke of Qing wrote a letter to report that the Cheng family disobeyed military orders and did not go to the front line to fight, but was transferred back to the capital.

, an attempt to start a rebellion.

The Sima family also collected evidence that the Cheng family seemed to be colluding with the imperial officials and forming a clique for personal gain. On that day, he was furious, deposed the queen, imprisoned Chu Xiu Palace and demoted him to a commoner, and beheaded everyone in the Cheng family.

Sima Ruozhao...

He thought of this woman and burst out laughing, leaving Qi Min stunned and at a loss.

The two of them stood motionless at the door. After a long time, the emperor lowered his head and said, "Go back to the palace, I'm tired."
