The two black treasures of Tiangui's escaped concubine

Chapter 107
Du Youzhi walked out with a notebook from the back room, and handed it to Hua Xiyan to check.

Hua Xiyan saw in the book, carefully listing who the Queen Mother Hu met every day.

"Eternal Life Palace also has the eyeliner of the Holy Majesty. The minister simply bought information from that eyeliner." Du Youzhi made a pun.

"When Ben Gong sneaked in early in the morning, did you use your eyeliner?" Hua Xiyan asked casually.

"Send it away. I don't know if the Holy Majesty will put all the hidden guards around the empress?"

"Since I'm in the palace, sending secret guards under his nose, isn't it exposing himself?" Hua Xiyan turned over the book. Sun Ruyu entered the palace many times, but, except for Sun Ruyu, the others The Sun family was not specially received by Queen Mother Hu.

"Is your empress suspicious of the Sun family?" Du Youzhi paid attention to the way she read the book.

"Do you think it is possible for the Sun family to rebel?"

"It's hard for me to say this." Du Youzhi said cautiously, "The Sun family cannot say that they don't have the ability to rebel. However, since the Sun family has this ability, they haven't rebelled for so many years, which only shows that the Sun family is afraid of rebelling without righteousness If you do, you will be rejected by the people of the world, even if you ascend the throne, you will not be guaranteed the throne. The Empress Dowager Hu colluded with the Sun family, if it is not for her own desire to become the emperor, there may be hidden secrets behind it."

Although this person is a little glib and clever, he is also a rare black-bellied talent.

Hua Xiyan clapped the book together and put it in her arms: "Lend me this book for research. As you said, you have to find it hard for me. Now Empress Dowager Hu is seriously ill, and a stone has disturbed a pool of water. , I don’t believe those fish and shrimps won’t jump out, so catch the big one for me.”

Hearing what she said, Du Youzhi could only wipe off his sweat, and smiled wryly: "Ma'am, are you trying to squeeze my mind out of me? Madam, although people who are backlashed by the curse will appear this curse mark, but this curse mark, Only the participants, such as your empress, can see it. Besides, it is impossible for the minister to strip off and check the clothes of those who may harm the empress one by one."

Hua Xiyan raised her eyebrows when she heard what he said. In this way, only she and those who cast the curse were the only ones who knew that Empress Dowager Hu appeared with the curse seal.And Aunt Sun who was present may still not understand clearly, judging from Aunt Sun's somewhat confused expression after seeing the queen mother vomit blood.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is the Queen of a country, how can any ordinary person cast a curse on Her Majesty?" Du Youzhi said.

Apricot narrowed his eyes a few times.

Du Youzhi followed her, seeing her rushing back to the palace, he must be worried about someone.When Hua Xiyan returned to the palace in his carriage, she said to him: "Take a turn and stop at a place where you can see the palace. Don't get too close."

The carriage circled around the palace.Hua Xiyan looked over from a distance, and it was still the alley where she played with her brothers when she was a child. The gate of the palace has not changed. It is so clean that there is not even a stone lion on the gate. It looks no different from ordinary houses.Du Youzhi said softly from the side: "The mother's family is the most frugal official residence I have ever seen."

Hua Xiyan looked at the courtyard wall of the palace, thinking that every year at this time, her mother would take out the books in the study to dry.It's going to rain today, I don't know if my mother will come out to dry the books.The mother's current appearance, she and her son had seen in the teahouse that day.It can be seen that the elder brother took good care of the mother, not enough to worry her.Instead, it was her father.

"Gong Taishi—"

If he had known she would ask about this, Du Youzhi said in a cautious tone: "Not long after your mother passed away, Gong Taishi was dismissed by the Holy Majesty, saying that he was sent to the frontier, but after all, he is the head of the country, and the Majesty must have something else later Think about it. After all, for fear of disturbing the Holy Majesty, the minister has not dared to find out the whereabouts of Gong Taishi."

"Go back." Hua Xiyan put down the car curtain.If her father is in his hands, she can just ask him directly.He must have discovered something last night, so he didn't return to the palace all night, maybe he went to find her father.

The sky was bright, but it was raining on a sunny day.

Li Zimo listened to the sound of rain pattering like hailstones on the roof rubble, as if waking up from a dream.He has been sitting here all night.Facing the middle-aged man in front of him, it felt like a dream.

The middle-aged man had a beard, his appearance was a little rough, his skin was rough, he was wearing hard labor clothes, and his hands and feet were not handcuffed, but he was no different from hard labor.Here every day, go up the mountain to cut firewood, and the scope of activities is limited to this small forest.Such austerity is like a life in prison. It is very different from the days when a middle-aged man was an official and enjoyed the worship of the people. Not everyone can bear it.But in Li Zimo's eyes, he, the head of the state who was punished by him as hard labor, seems to be very comfortable with this kind of life.Gong Hongwen's face was full of sorrow, and his eyes were shining brightly.

"Gong Taishi, do you still have nothing to say to me?"

Gong Hongwen swallowed his saliva, touched the sweat towel tied around his waist, and said in a calm tone unique to the palace family: "It's time for the Holy Majesty to return to the palace. It's time to go to court."

"I'm asking you something, I'm asking you about a night!" Sullen, he clapped his hand on the rough wooden table.

But this trick is useless for the Gong family.The Gong family has this temper, they are loyal and abide by principles.Sometimes the emperor is helpless.

Li Zimo calmed down, seeing the back standing at the door of the house, he had thought about letting his son come in to persuade his father, but if this trick could work, why would he have done it seven years ago.

Gong Hongwen was a little afraid that Longyan's anger would ruin his body, and said: "I really have nothing to say to the Holy One. If I can say anything, I confessed to the Holy One seven years ago. It is my fault that I failed to cure my daughter. , failed to heal the Holy Empress."

"Do you still think that Jinxi died of illness?"

"Chenhe and the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital really can't see that there are other reasons for the empress to lose her life besides sudden illness."

Mo pupils narrowed slightly, examining him: "Do you know why I came to you suddenly after seven years?"

"why?"

"Last night, I and Gong Qing entered the Queen's tomb. As a result, I found that not only the jade gate that I should be able to open was opened, but also the coffin was moved."

Gong Hongwen raised his lowered head, as if equally astonished: "What does the Holy Majesty mean, is the Queen's tomb stolen?"

"I also don't understand, who can come in and out freely in a place where only I can go in and out."

Hearing this, the father and son of the Gong family seemed to be a little stiff in the same way.

After a while, Gong Hongwen said: "Your Majesty, I have been in this place all the time. With His Majesty's people watching, it is impossible to go anywhere. I also don't understand why the Majesty asked me to ask this question?"

Li Zimo looked at him for a while, and saw that there was really no trace of lying when he said this on his face.Strange, where is my mistake.Obviously, I thought this person should know something.However, it is illogical.
