Chapter 3473 Extra Prince 13

Before leaving, he entrusted his two grandsons and his great-great-grandson to Bai Shan.

Bai Shan promised: "Even if Lord Zhou is involved, I can protect them. If the capital can't stay, you can go to Mianzhou, as long as Lord Tong doesn't dislike the bitter cold in Mianzhou."

"Mianzhou can produce such a person as Lord Zhou, and it is a place where Zhongling Yuxiu is beautiful. Lord Bai is too polite."

The servant boy and the servant boy entered the palace with the Queen's sign and begged to see the Queen.

The queen who had been waiting in the palace exhaled a breath, turned her head and said to the female official beside her: "If you want to quickly find out these ghosts and ghosts in the palace, you still need someone like a servant."

The female official bowed and said, "The maiden is too benevolent, that's why some people have to make an inch."

The queen shook her head slightly without explaining.

Of course, she is not only benevolent, otherwise she can't manage the harem in an orderly manner. This time, it is said that it is a matter of the harem, but it is more that the forces of the former court intervene in the harem.

Although she has prestige, and the officials believe her, but if she is too strong at this time, it will definitely cause people to doubt the prince, but the gain will outweigh the loss.

It's not that she can't find out about this matter, but the means must be gentle, which means that it will take a long time.

Certainly not as good as the child servant.

Sure enough, as soon as the servant boy entered the palace, the queen directly handed over the minister of the inner servant and the Department of Shen Punishment to him, and asked him to find out the matter, and then the queen fell ill.

The palace of the emperor and empress has always been in the same place. Usually, if the emperor does not go to the concubines and concubines in the harem, he will stay in the front study and the empress.

The relationship between the husband and wife has always been very good. This time the emperor fell asleep, and the queen lived in the ear room, not even in the side hall.

The couple are separated by a small door.

Now the queen is "sick", and the queen even lives back in the bedroom. In order not to get sick to the emperor, the husband and wife are separated by a screen, and a small bed is arranged behind the screen. As soon as the queen looks up, she can see the emperor through the screen. .

Zhou Man went to see her with the medicine box.

Although she was not seriously ill, the queen barely closed her eyes this day and night, so Zhou Man simply gave her a needle so that she could rest better.

While the needle was being pierced, the queen suddenly asked her in a low voice, "When will your majesty wake up?"

Zhou Man paused, the needle gently pierced into her skin, and his eyes swept through the surrounding screens. This small bed was separated by three screens. At this time, except for a palace maid standing far away, Only the two of them were in the screen.

When Zhou Man turned around and took the needle, he said, "Your Majesty, be patient, you will see Your Majesty when you wake up tomorrow."

The emperor was on the side, and she could see it anytime she wanted.

The queen was relieved and leaned on the pillow, which meant that the emperor could wake up tomorrow at the latest.

She exhaled and asked in a low voice, "Who else knows about this?"

"It's just me and Xiao Yuanzheng," Zhou Man's voice was barely audible, "None of us ever said anything."

That is to say, when they talked about their illnesses, they tacitly did not talk about it, but they knew each other well.

The corners of the queen's mouth twitched slightly. This is good. When His Majesty wakes up, all the ghosts and ghosts outside will disappear.

After piercing the needle, Zhou Man pulled the quilt up and comforted him: "God to sleep, don't your majesty not wake up, you collapse first."

This guy's body is not very good.

The queen slowly closed her eyes under the action of acupuncture, and she slept soundly this time.

When she woke up, the sky was already slightly bright, but after half a day and one night, the servant boy had already found out a lot of things.

At this moment, he was sitting in the side hall with a smile and waiting. Although his body was clean, Old Master Tang who was sitting not far away could still smell the blood on his body.

Master Yu frowned slightly, but Old Master Tang took a sip of tea with a calm expression on his face. There is Jia Qi in Dali Temple, but his methods are still a little immature now. In the imperial palace, the Department of Prudence and Punishment is the most famous, and the inner servant of the child is one of the best.

Old Master Tang thought to himself that Gu Zhong was sent to Dali Temple, whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, I wonder if he fell into the hands of Tong Nei Shi, would he torture Gu Zhong?

When the queen finally washed and "weak" sitting on the couch, several people were invited in together.

"Check it out?"

The courtiers did not speak, but the wrinkled face of the old servant of the child was smiling: "I have found out here in the old slave, but the adults still think that the evidence is not enough."

The queen said: "Invite the prince and let him listen to it too."

No one objected, and the queen knew that things were good for the prince, so the guards went away.

The queen asked, "Where's Lord Yin?"

"Master Yin is on inspection."

Since the emperor fell asleep, Yin Li has put the entire imperial city under martial law. Lord Tang and other ministers have found a reason to give Baiguan a holiday. Now officials below the fourth rank do not know that their emperor has fallen asleep, and they are happily outside. vacation.

Therefore, the outside of the imperial city is loose and the inside is tight, and even the gates of the capital have to quietly increase the number of troops and horses. Yin Li has a lot of things.

The queen said, "Please come here."

"Yes."

The prince was locked in the side hall, the emperor was in a drowsy sleep, and the matter was undecided, and it was difficult for him to sleep well, so he came over quickly.

He strode forward, eagle eyes swept across the faces of the ministers, and when he saw Zhou Man standing aside with his hands folded and his face calm, he knew that it was not a bad thing, so he raised his robes and sat on the other side of the couch after salute with the queen. side.

"How's your father?"

The queen sighed, "I still haven't woken up."

The prince frowned and looked at Zhou Man and Xiao Yuanzheng, "Isn't it found out yet? Is it poisoned?"

"No," Zhou Man had no idea how many times he had promised, and insisted, "Your Majesty is sick, not poisoned."

In the past two days, many imperial doctors were also called to diagnose the emperor's pulse. Everyone gave the same opinion, and there was no sign of poisoning.

It is also because of this that Xiao Yuanzheng and Zhou Man have always been in charge of Taiji Hall, and their diagnosis is no problem.

The prince wanted to ask more, but Yin Li had already stepped forward and bowed to the queen prince.

The queen said: "Everyone is here, let's start now."

She looked at the servant boy, "Come on."

The servant boy bent over and said: "Back to the maiden, the old slave interrogated the palace maid who was serving Liu Meiren, and the martial artist who reported Liu Meiren. Back then, Liu Meiren wanted to compete for favor, so she prepared a charm to seduce Your Majesty, but only Your Majesty has a lot of good fortune, and she didn't use the tea she made..."

The Dali Temple has been unable to open Liu Meiren's mouth. First, because she is a concubine, although there are Wucai people who report it, they dare not use severe punishment until there is practical evidence;

Second, Liu Meiren is not stupid. She knows that some crimes cannot be confessed, and some things cannot be said. Otherwise, without waiting for the conviction of the crime, someone will take her life first, and there are family members behind her.

But the servant boy could make life worse for her and forget her family, so she confessed.

Of course, not all of her confessions are credible.
