Chapter 1268
The guard wished he could bury his head in the ground, for fear that Huangfu Chu would kill his head in the next moment.

Since the emperor's death, Huangfu Chu's temperament has changed drastically, even if he doesn't show any expression on his face, it will make people feel frightened.

"Back to the emperor, at that time Zhang Linghan did tell the minister that he would guard the queen's tomb in the imperial mausoleum for two days, and then return to the palace to return to his command, and the minister took people away first. It is because the minister is not good at things, please punish the emperor."

Huangfu didn't speak at first, and the guard was even more worried.

"Your Majesty, I will take someone to capture Zhang Linghan now, and I will definitely bring him to you."

When Huangfu first heard this, he lost his mind.

What did you bring Zhang Linghan back for?Why should he be so persistent and insist on seeing him again?

Should he tell himself about Lin Zhimo's burial?Or should he blame Zhimo's death on him to alleviate his guilt?
But the person who killed Lin Zhimo was actually himself.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation fell into silence, the guards were so nervous that sweat dripped on the ground, their fingers curled up, motionless.

At this moment, the door of the palace was pushed open, and Xiao Guangxin walked in cautiously, kneeling beside the guards: "Report to the Emperor, Feng Keqing begs to see you."

Half a year ago, Feng Keqing's father passed away, so he asked Huangfu Chu for leave to go back.

In the Dasheng Dynasty, there was a folk custom that when parents passed away, children kept their filial piety for one year, and officials reduced it to eight months.

Feng Keqing came back early now, probably because he heard about Lin Zhimo.

Huangfu didn't want to see him at first, wanted to refuse, waved his hand to stop, and then said: "Tell me."

"Yes." Xiao Guangxin nodded and got up.

"Go down." Huangfuchu said again.

As if the guard had been pardoned, he quickly thanked En and got up.

Soon, Feng Keqing walked in and knelt down to salute: "My minister will see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

"Excuse me." Huangfu didn't care much at first, his voice sounded listless, as if Lin Zhimo's departure had already taken away his energy.

However, Feng Keqing didn't get up, looking at the haggard Huangfu Chu, he looked ashamed: "This time I got up this time, I deliberately asked the emperor for sin."

Huangfuchu finally turned his attention to him: "Why did Mr. Feng say that?"

"Your Majesty, I have heard about the Empress." Feng Keqing's voice dropped, "I should return to Beijing as soon as possible, maybe the Empress..."

"It's not you who's guilty." Huangfuchu interrupted him, "It's me."

Just after saying these two words, Huangfu Chu suddenly felt wet on his face, and he wiped it with his hand, and wept.

The tears that I thought had been shed on the day of Lin Zhimo's burial ran out again.

Seeing his tears, Feng Keqing felt even more guilty.

"Your majesty, my minister dares to guarantee with the head of the item that the queen will definitely not commit treason. Concubine Wu's miscarriage has nothing to do with her, and she took in Huangfu Jue in order to repay her kindness."

"Repay the favor?" Huangfu looked at him in confusion at first, and his voice became hurried, "What kind of favor should you repay? Make it clear."

Feng Keqing came this time to tell the story of that year.

"Back then, the queen was still working as an imperial cook in the palace. When she came out to deliver news to you, she was tied to Huangfurui's mansion and wanted to dedicate her to Huangfurui, but in the end Huangfujue's biological mother, Lu Shi Saved."

"That's why I speculate that the empress must have promised Lu that she would save Huangfu Jue before taking him in."

Huangfu stood up in disbelief, "Who kidnapped her?"

"Yuan Xue, daughter of Yuan Shen."

Huangfu Chu's pupils dilated in an instant, and he grabbed the inkstone at hand and threw it out: "Why did you tell me such a big thing now?"
