Chapter 390 Questioning
The reason why this messenger job from the palace is a fat job is that those people want to use them to inquire about the emperor's state of mind and inquire about some confidential matters, and if these matters have nothing to do with life, they can say that if they involve life and death, even if it is With mountains of gold and silver piled up in front of you, you must not say a word.

The master's words flashed through his mind, and the young chamberlain frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "On the night of the flash flood, His Majesty originally summoned the Second and Third Highnesses to enter the palace together. However, for some reason, the Third Highness came out after the order, and His Majesty stayed alone. The Second Highness said a few words, and because the Secretary of the Ministry of Industry arrived due to the summons, His Majesty kicked the Second Highness out."

While talking, the waiter looked at Gu Yuqing's expression and wondered whether what he said was what she wanted to hear.

A single word confirmed what Gu Yuqing had guessed in his heart.

It was Xiao Duo who tried his best to protect Lu Jiuzheng in front of His Majesty. As Jingzhao Yin Fu Chunsheng returned to Beijing, the news that Lu Jiuzheng kidnapped the eldest daughter of the Chinan Marquis Mansion naturally spread to the palace. Such a thing, Your Majesty Naturally, he wanted to question Xiao Duo.

But Xiao Duo was safe and sound, but he was kicked out from the imperial study by the emperor, which is enough to show that the emperor was only angry and reprimanded him without pain, and there was no real punishment.

That's why Xiao Duo thought he had picked the gold cleanly, and then happened what happened next. He spread various rumors about her kidnapping, but the purpose was to make people in the world covet the gold and kill her. .

Xiao Duo has always used the borrowed knife to kill people well.

Thoughts were flying, Gu Yuqing's lowered eyelashes trembled slightly, the clouds in her eyes dispersed, and they were clear again. She smiled and said to the chamberlain: "Why doesn't Concubine Shu say something nice for His Highness the Second Prince?"

The tone sounded like a question, but more like a sigh.

The chamberlain's eyes moved slightly and he said: "Concubine Shu was grounded by Your Majesty because she sent someone to murder the legitimate princess and tried to blame the incident on the Empress. To put it nicely, she is also powerless.”

The slaves in the deep house compound stepped on the low and bowed high, let alone the palace servants in this palace.

Gu Yuqing had also heard about Xiao Jingyu's violent beating at night, but because he had never seen Qing Hong's face, let alone heard from her, he only knew a little bit about this matter from rumors. .

"I heard that someone from the Hehuan Palace was responsible?" Gu Yuqing asked.

The servant nodded, "It's true that you are from the Hall of Hehuan, but you are in Cao Ying and your heart is in Han, eating the rice from the Hall of Hehuan, but you have been secretly attracted by Empress Shu. This time, it is Empress Shu. The one who ordered him to beat up the concubine, who originally sang a thief in Hehuan Palace and shouted "Stop the thief", took advantage of the empress being grounded, completely suppressed the empress, who would have thought that he would lift a stone and throw it on his own feet!"

As he said this, as if it was a very funny joke, the waiter raised his orchid fingers, pinched the handkerchief in his hand, covered his mouth and giggled.

If he smiled openly and normally, it wouldn't be a big deal, but he wanted to laugh but had to suppress himself deliberately, and his already high-pitched voice became more nondescript, which made people's hair stand on end.

Ji Xiang Ruyi stood behind Gu Yuqing, both excited.

Gu Yuqing also felt that her scalp was a little numb, and her brows were slightly furrowed. In the blink of an eye, her impeccable smile was still on her face, "Concubine Shu is grounded, and she is probably going to be very anxious for the Second Highness!"

The servant smiled strangely, and continued: "Who says it's not! But the second highness is busy, and the concubine Shu was not rescued. On the contrary, the empress was released. Although the power of the six palaces is thrown in Concubine Hui is in the hands of Concubine Hui, but I heard that Concubine Hui will hand it back in just one or two days."

When it comes to Concubine Hui, Gu Yuqing's heart twitches subconsciously, "But what does His Majesty mean?"

The chamberlain shook his head, "The Fourth Prince has been missing for the past two days. Concubine Hui is so anxious that she can't eat anything. Now that His Highness has finally returned, Concubine Hui fell ill and became weak as soon as the tight strings in her heart were loosened. , naturally I don’t have enough energy to take care of the Sixth House.”

When Gu Yuqing heard this, her heart suddenly shrank anxiously, and her breath fell in her chest and she couldn't breathe. Just when she was about to ask about Concubine Hui's condition, her mind was flashing, and she swallowed the words she opened her mouth.

Concubine Hui is such a smart person. How can she give back such power as managing the Sixth House just because she is unwell?

If it wasn't His Majesty's private intention, then it was that Concubine Hui wanted to excuse her illness and use this excuse to return her power.

But... why?

Thinking of Xiao Yu's usual forbearance, pretending to be uneducated and uninhibited, Concubine Hui never seemed to have any anxiety or irritation about this. It stands to reason that her son is unwilling to make progress and he is the emperor's heir. She should be the most anxious. Should it be Concubine Hui, the biological mother?

She was not in a hurry or rash, with a resigned and forgiving look.

If she said she was sincerely lenient, Gu Yuqing would never believe it. Otherwise, she would not have taken advantage of the last time she plotted Mu He and Chu Tiande, and used her strength to subjugate the queen so hard that the queen was directly killed. Grounded.

Known child Moruomu.

The reason why I know Xiao Yu's true side is because Xiao Yu never hides anything in front of me. Concubine Hui must be like this, and she knows what kind of Xiao Yu Xiao Yu is!

The same thing happened, and my anxious heart also calmed down.

But since Imperial Concubine Hui had gone to great lengths to plan such a situation and trap the Queen in the jar, why was she willing to let the Queen be released from the ban so easily now?
If she said she couldn't influence the emperor's mood, Gu Yuqing would never believe it.

Thinking again of what the chamberlain had just said, Xiao Duo had been busy for most of the day. Concubine Shu was still grounded, but the queen was released... Xiao Duo was busy, so naturally the He family was busy, and Xiao Duo's gang members were also busy, and this busyness was nothing more than It creates all kinds of pressure on His Majesty in the court.

His Majesty has always valued the stability of the former harem, but he values ​​the balance between political parties even more.

If one side of the He family keeps making trouble, but the Queen's natal family keeps silent, the consequences can be imagined.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Xiao Duo really stole the chicken but lost the rice this time.

Just one thing, Gu Yuqing still didn't understand. The Queen's natal family had always been powerful and domineering. This time, faced with such a huge change as the Queen being grounded, how could they resist making a fuss?It's simply not like their past behavior.

Unless there is guidance from an expert... Expert... A face comes to mind. In the last life, Xiao Yi ultimately relied on the power of the Queen's mother's family. However, in the previous life, she only received the Queen's support in two years. after……

Because of her rebirth, many things have changed. In this life...
