famous eldest daughter

Chapter 289 Incense Burner
Staggering a few steps, she stood firm on the table beside her. She turned her head with great difficulty, her head trembling with pearls. She saw Gu Yuqing and Ji Xiang hiding in the secret cabinet. The queen suddenly felt as if her whole body had been soaked in ice slag, and her head was cold. My scalp was trembling all the way down to my feet.

He couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick his chapped lips, swallowing the only bit of drool in his dry mouth. His pupils unconsciously became blurry. He clasped his fingers on the table and scratched out traces of the fine pear wood square table.

When she first entered Chenxiang Pavilion, she saw the mess on the ground and the man in black brocade clothes standing under the window on the back wall. At that time, she still thought that the man lying naked on the bed and moaning was Gu Yuqing. , so all the attention was on that man.

What I was thinking about was how to make the situation worse, preferably to the point of getting out of hand.

When the man escaped and Concubine Shu screamed and pointed out that the top and skirt on the ground belonged to Jingyu, she felt shocked, panic, sorrow, horror...all kinds of emotions came over her, shaking her limbs and bones, and her heart felt like it was being hammered with ice. Poke in and block the backflow of blood.

The center of his brain was in a mess, and he had long since lost consciousness. How could he pay attention to anything else.

Then, Concubine Hui had the right opportunity to help the emperor go to the outer room. In grief, she threw herself in front of Xiao Jingyu's bed. She didn't even have the strength to breathe. She sat on the bed blankly, looking as haggard as a dead person, and even more careless. Unable to notice anything strange indoors.

Impartially, where she sat, the hem of her wide dress perfectly covered the exposed sliver of goose yellow, so that no one who came in from behind could notice it.

Until she just got up and left...

God, why didn't she discover that yellowish color earlier? If she had discovered it earlier, perhaps the following things would not have happened!
Thinking of this, the queen, who forced herself to calm down, panted heavily, her heart convulsed with fear.

All of this was so coincidental, so surprising that even she felt that it was all her conspiracy, her careful planning, and her careful planning.

The emperor has always been extremely suspicious. Faced with such a coincidence, how could he not be overly concerned? When she thought of the suspicion that the emperor might have, the queen's convulsive heart trembled even more, and her fingertips were as cold as iron.

As for Chu Tiange, who was waiting for the door to open outside, the door opened with a creaking sound, and the bald chin head of a young eunuch was revealed. Chu Tiange suddenly heard a bang in his head, and something exploded.

Why...why is there a chamberlain inside?
His heart suddenly picked up, and he couldn't help but lift his foot to enter. As the wooden door was closed behind him with a bang, Chu Tiange was so shocked by the situation in the room that the sky was about to be blown away.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Chu Tiange stammered and saluted and said hello. Now that the matter has come to an end, he can only take advantage of the situation. He quickly calmed down and limped towards the inner room. .

There were only two chairs in the room, one for the emperor to sit on, and the other for the emperor to sit on. The moment he came in, Xiao Yu happened to pull it aside, placed Gu Yuqing in his arms on it, and pulled the imperial doctor's collar. He grabbed her and roughly pushed her down in front of Gu Yuqing, "Let's see how she is doing."

The imperial doctor trembled and tried to break it.

His eyes swept across the inner room. On the bed, Xiao Jingyu's soft voice kept moaning. In the secret cabinet under the bed, there was a person who looked like a maid. Chu Tiange recognized it at a glance. It was Ji Xiang in front of Gu Yuqing.

How could this happen? Listening to Xiao Jingyu's voice, it was clear that she had fallen under the "charm spell".

But... the thing I gave her was for Gu Yuqing, and she had already told her that the medicine was overbearing, so how could she be so careless and let herself be tricked, stupid!

Suddenly, there was a flash of light in his mind, and Chu Tiange, who was familiar with the treacherous palace, suddenly smelled the smell of conspiracy.

His eyes fell on the other people in the room, and he glanced hastily, making his guess even more certain.

Immediately, Chu Tiange remembered what Dong Ce said in the courtyard just now, "Catch crickets", and he gritted his teeth with hatred.

He stepped back slightly, trying to reduce his presence, but before he could stabilize his step, he was suddenly hit by someone behind him, and his whole body immediately stumbled forward.

Seeing that he was about to fall under the queen's skirt, Xiao Yicai, who was standing on one side, had clouds in his eyes and stretched out his hand to catch him.

"There is no need to perform such a big kneeling ceremony!" Chu Tiange stood still and Xiao Yi said in a cold voice.

Chu Tiange was about to fight back, but when he staggered, something rolled out of his arms, landed with a clang, and rolled to the emperor's feet.

When he saw that thing, Chu Tiande was so shocked that his heart felt like it had been gouged out.

day!
Why is this thing in his arms?
The sudden sound naturally attracted the attention of other people in the room. The chamberlain glanced at Chu Tiange suspiciously, then frowned and bent down, picked up the things from the emperor's feet, held them in both hands and handed them to the emperor.

The emperor took the thing, but glanced past Chu Tiange's shoulder and looked behind him, "Why are you here?"

Chu Tiange was flustered and restless, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he was racking his brains to figure out how to answer, when suddenly a figure passed behind him and walked forward.

It was the Ninth Prince Xiao Ke, and Chu Tiande suddenly remembered the hard knock he received when he retreated.

At the moment when his thoughts were swirling, Xiao Ke had already saluted in front of the emperor and replied, "My son, who was entrusted by his fourth brother, was accompanying Prince Dong outside the courtyard. Suddenly he saw him walking straight towards Chenxiang Pavilion. My son and Dong Ce couldn't stop him. "

After Xiao Ke finished speaking, he was looking intently at Xiao Yu, the imperial doctor treating Gu Yuqing. His eyebrows twitched, he hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, "I thought it was too abrupt to leave Dong Ce alone, so I kept him as my companion! "

He knew clearly that Xiao Ke was lying, but inexplicably, he felt that Xiao Ke was a friend rather than an enemy.

Chu Tiange was immediately shocked. Xiao Ke's words made him feel as if he had fallen into a big net, but it was dark in front of him and he couldn't see his fingers. He couldn't see clearly what the big net looked like.

The more this is the case, the more panic in his heart is like a surging tide.

Staring at the thing in his hand, it was a palm-sized incense burner. It was silvery and engraved with complicated and exquisite patterns. With just one glance, the emperor recognized that it was a South Vietnamese object. He raised his head and moved his eyes from the incense burner to Chutian Germanium. Suddenly, the emperor's chest jumped.

Straight to the black robe!

Thinking back to the madman who was standing under the window and escaping just now, his figure and body shape appeared in his mind, which actually overlapped with that of Chu Tianyi. Thinking about the way he was limping when he walked just now, the emperor felt a heavy blow in his nose. Hmph, pointing to Chu Tianzhi and asking: "What's the matter with your foot?"

Chu Tian was suddenly startled.

He thought the emperor would ask him about the incense burner, and he was thinking about the answer in his mind. Unexpectedly, the emperor asked him about his feet, pointed at Xiao Ke and blurted out: "He hit it."

Xiao Ke immediately cried out, "Father, how dare you, son? He is the prince who came to our court on behalf of South Vietnam."

Xiao Ke spoke sincerely, his black and white eyes shone like broken diamonds, and there was a hint of fear.
