Chapter 18 Incident

Mu Biwei's judgment was wrong.

After the imperial edict to kill Gao Wanjun went down, no one in the Gao family. The next morning, Susi went out to inquire about the news and came back and reported strangely: "The Duke of Rongchang and the noble book are all pleaded guilty to your majesty, and they all accept that their daughters are not strict."

"How could this happen?" Mu Bi was stunned. Although Gao Wanjun's maid was disrespectful to the prince - it was not intentional - after all, Gao Wanjun was only 12 years old. Her maid and her age seemed to be trusted and indulged by her master. It was not surprising that Gao Wanjun was stunned for a moment. It was common sense that Gao Wanjun was banned and reprimanded, but If you are executed like this...

Even Mu Biwei feels a little too much.

Su Si also felt very strange. She knew that Gao Jie only had such a daughter. She didn't care about such a trivial matter. Anyone should think more about it. Besides, Gao Wanjun was dealt with this time. The most direct reason was that the fourth prince sued. The fourth prince was guaranteed by the Su family. The Gao family should not be proud of the Su family. It's time to abandon a direct girl! Su Si thought for a moment and asked, "Mother, isn't it that the Gao family has been taken by the Su family?"

Mu Biwei and Ashan looked at each other, but there was a handle - Princess Anping and Ji Shen - the question is where can this handle be easily leaked? At the beginning, from Yingzhou to Yedu, the identity of Mrs. Wuying County and her relationship with the empress dowager took great advantage in the Su family's Yuyedu. The empress dowager Gao was such a face-seeing person. Princess Anping was her direct niece. Not to mention that she regarded it as half a daughter, she was still satisfied that she wanted to come over to be the eldest woman. Thinking that he is not harmonious with King Anping at all, the son of the world is still in his teens and has a red apricot out of the wall...

What's more terrible is that this princess is not an ordinary wall. This is no longer the fact that the Empress Dowager doesn't want to see the exposed news. It is a fact that even historians and courtiers don't want to believe. Although Ji Shen has long had a reputation for lust, it's okay for more concubines to be nagging about, but with the eldest sister-in-law ...Ashan hesitated and said, "Do you think it's not like me?"

Mu Bi nodded slightly. If this is the case, firstly, Princess Anping went to pray for the royal palace in the ninth year of Taining, and even changed all the people around her. Second, the Empress Dowager Gao did not know about this matter. The Su family dared to threaten the Gao family with this. The Gao family would simply beg the Empress Dowager to make the decision, and the Empress Dowager was close to Wu Ying. Mrs. County is right, but if Mrs. Wuying dares to publicize the affairs of Princess Anping and Ji Shen, the Empress Dowager can fight with this eldest sister!

What's more, didn't Mrs. Wuying County rely on helping the Gao family and the Empress Dowager hide this matter, so that the Duke and Mrs. Rongchang County owed her a favor? In the struggle between the Su family and the Qu family, the Gao family always secretly supported it, which made the Qu family capsized?

But if it weren't for Princess Anping... What could make the Gao family swallow a mouthful of blood so secretly?

The matter that she thought was like the palm of her suddenly became complicated, and Mu Biwei couldn't help thinking too much: the appearance of the eldest prince and the second prince are not a secret inside and outside the palace. What's more, as Gao Wanjun, as a princess companion, the slaves and maidservants around her have to follow her into the palace. How can they not be picked up the nobles? Appearance and temper?

Besides, Gao Wanjun is the oldest among the four princesses, but why is it her maid who has something to do? Whose hands and feet is the little maid? But if anyone does this, it is clear that Gao Chuan will take the initiative to go to the northwest... In this case, the Su family is very suspicious, but now Gao Chuan clearly doesn't want to go... What on earth is going on?

Mu Biwei thought about it over and over again, and even used a little hastily for lunch. In the evening, she was reminded by Ashan that Xiping that they were coming back. Then she cheered up and prepared for praise. When she didn't want to wait left and right, Xiping and her party were delayed to return!

"Why are they so playful today?" Mu Bi asked slightly puzzledly. Generally speaking, they are still children, and Gao Wanjun's affairs will always be a little embarrassing, right? Originally, Mu Biwei thought they would return early, but she was puzzled. She didn't worry much. After all, there are so many emperors and followers. This Xiji Mountain hunting ground is not a dangerous place. Even if she meets a fierce beast, do those many followers dare to leave the emperors behind? It is expected that nothing will happen.

Just...

After sunset, it quickly darkened. Mu Biwei finally felt something was wrong and was about to order the horse. When she went to welcome her in person, a servant rushed to report: "Your Majesty - Your Highness the Third Prince... Your Highness the Third Prince..."

The servant rushed in and did not mention others. Shan Tiji, and he looked like he was definitely not here to report the good news no matter how he looked at it. Everyone was shocked!

Mu Biwei held Ashan's hand, and both of them couldn't help shaking, but they still asked with hope, "What's wrong with Qianlang?"

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince was shot!" The servant ploped and knelt down. Because he was in a hurry, there was a wind in the corner of his robe, which almost extinguished a palace lamp not far away. After saying this, he immediately knelt down deeply and dared not move again!

Mu Biwei only felt that the blood all over her body was almost instantaneous, and her mind was completely blank. She didn't know how long she had stayed. She only heard her voice subconsciously ask, "How's the injury..." She couldn't wait for the waiter to answer, and felt that the whole world was spinning...

The exclamation of Susi and others seemed to be very close and far away in their ears: "Mother?!"

............................................................................................

The room in the cold palace is extremely dilapidated. Under the lights, Qu's not beautiful face was coated with a layer of golden glory, but it showed a little beauty. She quickly read the news that should be sent by the Qu family and smiled: "Since Gao Wanjun is dead, even if Gao Chuan asks for his life to go to the northwest at this moment, he is not afraid. Now this difference is a It must be Dad's."

She swept her hair and said, "Next, Ye will change a lot. Dad has to get up as soon as possible. We have to think of a way to end Chunhou as soon as possible."

Flying Hewei, who was standing not far away, carefully asked for advice, "Girl, why can't Gao Chuan ask for his life now?"

"If he asks for his life, let our people report to remind His Majesty that he is likely to have some plans for the murder of his granddaughter." Qu raised his head and sneered, "In those years, some people attacked our Qu family. Didn't they say that we had no uninfected military power except the Northwest Army? Where is the Gao family? Although Rongchang County has always been a deputy for his father, but hasn't he intervened in Yecheng Army and Feihewei?

Flying Hewei muttered: "Although this, if your majesty still dislikes the Lord..."

"No." Qu said calmly, "Your Majesty doesn't have such a good memory! Unless someone reminds me every day... I asked the ten pearls prepared at home, but they are all ready?"

"It's all ready." Feihewei said, "The Lord is about to ask the girls, these pearls are for..."

Qu Shi narrowed his eyes and said, "Send it to his house before Nie Zikai comes back!"

"Nev Zikai?" Feihewei was stunned.

Qu's Anran said, "Not bad! Muqi, Duke Wuying, Duke Rongchang, and Dad, according to our calculation, there are only four people who have the ability to pick up the northwest, but the world is extraordinary! When Mu Qi was escorted back to Yedu, didn't his father and Duke Rongchang also think about the northwest? But in the end, he was killed by Ni Zhen! Ye Zigui is dead, but in Muqi's old department, there is no one else who can guard the Xuelan Pass. Nie Zikai doesn't help. In case someone emerges casually... Then when should we wait?

She warned seriously, "Don't say, in the Yingzhou Army, everyone thought that after Dad came back, eight out of ten. Nine is that Mu Qi went to Yingzhou. Who would have thought that Nie Zikai would recommend Lou Wangu? Lou Wangu is the son-in-law. The Su family can't do anything about him at all. Princess Xuanning is there. Of course, there is no empress dowager who doesn't love the eldest princess! Nowadays, all the government and the opposition have praised Lou Wangu for doing a good job in Yingzhou and his talent, but they don't think about it. At the beginning, when his father came to Yingzhou, it can be said that he was an ambush on all sides, and nothing went well in small and big things. What about Lou Wangu? He met a little thorns and gave a private letter to the eldest princess Xuanning. The eldest princess immediately came to ask for help from Mrs. Wuyingjun. Mrs. Wuyingjun agreed slowly, so she went to the empress dowager or her majesty to make it ten times more difficult for her son-in-law, so as not to blame the son-in-law... Your Majesty's nature. Son, how can you care about the big picture?

Qu Shi showed contempt, "In addition to beauty and pleasure, it's too difficult for him to be beside him! It's just what the trusted people around him said and what he did! With Nie Zikai's help to speak, this matter is safe. This is related to the ups and downs of our Qu family. The ten pearls are just a small matter!"

"Is it just that Nie Zikai will help?" Feihewei muttered, "I heard that he..."

"He helped Queen Duanming deal with the Qu family." Qu said peacefully, "But on the one side, Queen Duanming was powerful at that time, and on the other side, do you think Queen Duanming gave him less benefits? Now Queen Duanming is dead. He is a person who takes benefits, but he is not from the Su family. Don't make a mistake!"

"Yes!" Feihewei was shocked and said quickly, and then said uneasuredly, "In this case, are there too few pearls?"

Qu shook his head and said, "A lot, not to mention more eye-catching, Nie Zikai is suspicious and gives too many benefits. Be careful that he suspects us to kill people afterwards!"

"It's my subordinates who are ignorant." Feihewei said awkwardly that he had been cultivated by the Qu family for many years. He had never contacted the Qu family in the years when he was still the Qu family or Zuo Zhaoyi. He had never been expelled from the court in the struggle and cleaning of the two commanders of Feihewei and Gao Qi. He was one of the deepest dark lines buried by the Qu family and was also a quick-responsive person. However, these offerings The plan was rejected by Qu, and he inevitably felt that he could not step down.

The Qu family also told him uneaslently: "The old housekeeper in Nie Zikai's house, the pearl will be handed over to him. Don't talk too much and be humble, okay?"

Flying Crane Wei didn't say much and took the order to leave.

When he left, Qu took a pen and pulled it in front of him alone. He looked at the dripping ink on the paper and said to himself, "I have hidden it for you for a long time and sent these ten pearls. Nie Zikai, if you are a really smart person, you should know what I mean! Don't disappoint me!"

He frowned for a long time, sighed, and lost his pen with hatred.
