Secret agent crossing: Overbearing prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 66 The Succession Controversy
"Gu Yumu has already gone to look for Gu Jiuli. I don't know if they know at this moment that she was arrested by Luo Zishang." Jun Shecang clenched his fists. Right now he really can't go to Mo Qingli. Brother Huang died suddenly. There will be storms in the court, and he must stand up and turn the tide, so as to stabilize the country of the Jun family.

Two clumps of flowers on the window sill are in full bloom, and the faint fragrance of flowers permeates the air.Mo Qingli was sitting on the small couch in front of the window, wearing a light purple and flowered gauze dress, and a white magnolia hairpin on her hair. Although she didn't apply makeup on her face, she couldn't hide her beautiful and charming demeanor. She looked calm , Flipping through the book in his hand, he didn't say a word for a long time.

Luo Zishang came in and saw this scene, so he couldn't help but stop at the door.

Mo Qingli noticed him, but didn't even bother to raise her eyes.After she was captured by Luo Zishang, she was put under house arrest in the Luo Mansion. The daily service was very meticulous and thoughtful, but there was no antidote to the poison she had that day, which made her unable to use all her martial arts. Beware of her poison everywhere, Mo Qingli can only be trapped here for a while.

"Qingli is in a good mood. Even though there is a lot of noise outside, here is a piece of peace." Luo Zishang smiled and sat on the stool opposite her.

"What do I have to do with the upheaval outside? I didn't steal the sea jade and coral." Mo Qingli still looked down at the book.

Luo Zishang heard a hint of annoyance from her words, and couldn't help laughing happily, "The sea jade coral is nothing, it's not worth remembering."

"Since it's not worth remembering, why does the King of the Sea make waves in the Central Plains?" Mo Qingli stared at him and asked. The farewell was just a cover, a trap to lure Jun Shecang into the bait.

"We fishermen at sea have a habit of harvesting the most from the wind and waves, because the fish can only be brought out when the waves rise." Luo Zishang took a sip of tea and smiled lightly, "Now I want to make this wave , is nothing more than the big fish lurking at the bottom of the water as shown in the picture.”

Mo Qingli knew that he was talking about Jun Shecang, but seven days had passed, Jun Shecang should have gotten the news of her arrest the next day, Luo Zishang was full of ambition to catch Jun Shecang, but he never expected , it has arrived and Jun Shecang has not shown up yet, so Luo Zishang can't sit still, and wants to come to test her.

Just as Jun Shecang said he didn't want her to save her, Mo Qingli didn't want Jun Shecang to take risks to save her.

Mo Qingli's expression was as usual, she continued to flip through the book, but she unconsciously clenched the scroll, showing her inner anxiety. Luo Zishang had a panoramic view of her movements, and sighed with his fan: "Qingli, you and I When did the relationship become so divided? I just want you to go with me from the beginning to the end. Even if you want to kill me, I will still treat you well. I, Luo Zishang, ask myself that I am not an upright person. But I treat you the same as before, and never change."

Mo Qingli looked at him, and slightly bent the corners of his lips, "Haiwang's words are too polite, you conspired with Mo Zhiyan to ruin my reputation, but it was only for me, Mo Qingli, I am so grateful for this kindness. But no blessing to accept it."

Luo Zishang looked at her, showing a warm smile like a spring breeze, "Why should Qingli be angry? At that time, I just wanted to help you get rid of Jun Shecang's entanglement. If you can stay at that time, we will It's time to return to the sea, who cares about the illusory things of Mingjie."

"Neptune is good in business, but I have different ideas from Neptune. In my heart, Mo Qingli, there are some things that cannot be traded off. So when Neptune and Mo Zhiyan conspire, we have nothing to say." Mo Qing Seeing that he clearly designed himself, but still spoke seriously, Li said with some disgust.

Seeing Mo Qingli's gesture, Luo Zishang stood up and said, "Qingli, I, Luo Zishang, have never been unable to do anything."

"I want to get you, let's see who has the guts to snatch you from me." Luo Zishang said coldly, got up and left.

Seeing Luo Zishang leave, Mo Qingli stood up and looked out the window. What is Jun Shecang doing now? Is he too busy to look for her, or does he really think her life or death is unimportant.Mo Qingli knew that the current situation was very critical, and it was indeed a clear and rational decision for Jun Shecang not to come to rescue her, but she couldn't hide the faint disappointment in her heart.

Luo Zishang entered the palace in a hurry, the palace was full of plains, long spiritual veils floated on both sides of the vermilion wall, the ministers who entered the palace were all dressed in white, and the black gauze hats were covered with white gauze, and everyone who saw Luo Zishang saluted respectfully, Call Master Luo.

Jun Yuqing's coffin is currently placed in the Taimiao Temple. According to the rules, it needs to be parked for seven days before being sent to the imperial mausoleum. Today is the last day. Jun Yuqing's posthumous title will also be finalized. All the ministers must gather Go to Taimiao to send off Jun Yuqing.

Above the Ancestral Temple, the queen mother and queen were both dressed in white. The queen mother was sobbing as she held the coffin, and Shangguan Yun helped her up. There was a white flower, and she was haggard, which showed how much Jun Yuqing's death had impacted her.

And Mo Zhiyan was also crying with a handkerchief, but when she saw Luo Zishang appearing, a gleam of joy flashed in her eyes, but looking at the many people around her, Mo Zhiyan had no choice but to restrain her impatience and continue to act. Out of grief.

Luo Zishang knelt down with the crowd, his eyes were indifferent and cold, kneeling in the crowd was just lowering his head to cover up the emotions in his heart.

After all the officials saw off the spirit, the mighty funeral procession went to the imperial mausoleum, and the young emperor walked to the Hades just like that.

Shangguan Yun only felt her heart ache so badly, she staggered forward and wanted to chase after her, shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty." At the end of the shouting, her voice was already hoarse, Mo Zhiyan stepped forward to support her and said hypocritically: " Elder sister is the mother of a country, but you must pay attention to your health."

Shangguan Yun shook off her hand and stared at her angrily. How could the emperor die suddenly?This must have something to do with Mo Zhiyan, but she has no proof yet.

Mo Zhiyan was thrown away by her, and Shi Shiran straightened the crown on her head, "It's useless for my sister to get angry with me, let's think about the future, the late emperor passed away suddenly, you and I are just women, You should also think about the future."

Shangguan Yun only felt a little cold, Jun Yuqing passed away, she had no prince under her knees, only Qianqian, she had to protect her daughter well.

"Concubine Mo don't need to worry, the former emperor still has children, no matter what, I am the queen mother and empress dowager, so I will treat all my younger sisters kindly." Shangguan Yun restrained her emotions and put on a calm look.

Mo Zhiyan smiled lightly, "Then the concubine can rest assured, the concubine will leave first."

Shangguan Yun saw Mo Zhiyan leave, and the courtiers had already dispersed. She brimming with tears, turned around and found the Queen Mother standing beside her, with deep and distant eyes.

"Mother's Queen." Shangguan Yun called softly, "My mother's condolences, Wanwang take care of your health."

The Empress Dowager looked at Shangguan Yun, although she sometimes disliked the Queen's behavior, but now in the harem, the only ones who really grieved for her son were her as the mother and Shangguan Yun as his wife.

After Jun Yuqing was buried, who would inherit the throne became a big problem.Because of Jun Yuqing's sudden death, there was no news about his succession, and Jun Yuqing had no heirs during his reign, only Princess Qianqian, so the throne must be chosen from the royal clan to succeed him.

A country cannot be without a king for a day. After all, the empress dowager is someone who has seen big storms. She immediately began to listen to politics behind the curtain. The palace came to live, and she wanted to inspect it in person.

Seeing that many children have entered the palace and uniformly arranged their residences, Shangguan Yun went to meet the Empress Dowager, and said worriedly: "Mother, do you have a decision, many people in the royal family have business contacts with Luo Zishang , no matter who we choose, I am afraid that the power will fall into the hands of Luo Zishang."

The Empress Dowager's back is as sinking as water, and she doesn't know Luo Zishang's ability, now it's just by letting them enter the palace, dragging them back first, the courtiers in front are pushing too hard, taking the country all day can't be without a king Let's talk, it's better to hold off now so that they, the people in the harem, can take action.

"Stop, you dare to trespass on the Empress Dowager's palace." A court lady shouted suddenly from outside.

The Empress Dowager said angrily, "Who is making noise outside?"

Mammy walked in and said respectfully: "It's a little girl from the Imperial Garden. She said that the Imperial Garden opened a bundle of twining stems at night, so she wanted to bring it here as a gift to the Empress Dowager. She didn't understand the rules, so she was reprimanded and left."

"This little girl has a heart, our room is too dark, it's time to put a bouquet of flowers to diffuse the gloom." The Empress Dowager's face turned pale when she heard this, "Bring in the flowers, people should also reward them."

Mammy responded and went out to make arrangements, and after a while came in with a bunch of Bingdilings in full bloom and put them on the small case.

Shangguan Yun stepped forward with a forced smile and said, "This flower blooms really uniquely." Suddenly she saw a small piece of familiar thread, and suddenly stopped the conversation.

The Queen Mother realized that something was wrong and screened everyone away.

Shangguan Yun reached into the bouquet and touched the thread, and slowly pulled out a piece of crystal clear jade from it.

The queen mother took two steps forward and grabbed Gouyu in her hands, she was so shocked that she almost forgot to breathe.This Gouyu is Jun Yuqing's personal belonging, and he will never take it off unless he has to. Once Jun Yuqing takes the Gouyu off, it means that he has fallen into an irreversible predicament.

Why didn't she know that Jun Yuqing died strangely, and why didn't she know that the first emperor died strangely, but she had the status of Queen Mother in the harem, but she couldn't do anything, couldn't investigate anything.

There is a small word engraved on the gouyu, Cang.

The empress dowager and Shangguan Yun looked at each other in blank dismay. They all thought of that person, can that person make things turn around?
