Chapter 535 Disagreement
Zhou Yuan was already at odds with General Qi Changqing, and it was the Prime Minister Zhou Yuan who said that the General conspired against the country.

The emperor had always suspected that the general holding military power would threaten the stability of the royal family. The increasingly suspicious emperor actually believed Zhou Yuan's words. He only saw the superficial evidence and convicted the general's mansion.

No one survived the massacre of the entire Great General's Mansion overnight. It is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger, which is absolutely true!

"The general didn't believe that the emperor would listen to the villain's words, so he waited in the capital to see the imperial concubine before returning to the border. The imperial concubine at that time received reliable news that the emperor wanted to kill the general. The empress had no choice but to send the old slave Take the letter out of the palace and go to the general's mansion."

"At that time, the empress was already pregnant for more than a month, but she hadn't reported to His Majesty. The old slave secretly left the palace with a letter overnight, but it was still a step too late. When the old slave arrived at the general's mansion, the entire general's mansion was already bleeding. Into a river!"

"When the old slave found Old General Qi, the old general was already dying. When he was dying, he gave the old slave a box. The old slave had never opened it before. The general said that the things in this box can help His Majesty. Get rid of the traitors and protect the empress for a safe life in the palace."

"When the old slave returned to the palace with the box, the empress had already been thrown into the cold palace, and the old slave was also driven to the handyman's room by them, where he worked as a handyman every day, and his hands and feet would be shackled. The old slave thought I can't do it even if I want to find a concubine."

"The old slave desperately wanted to survive in the handyman's room, so that he could see his mother one day. When the old slave was released from the handyman's room, the Meihua Palace had already withered to its present appearance due to a fire. "

"When the old slave found the Lenggong, he was told that the empress had died a few months ago, and all the people who served in the Meihua Palace were given to death. The old slave was lucky enough to escape, and became a eunuch in charge near the Lenggong. ,until now."

"The Meihua Palace is often rumored to be haunted. This old slave knows that it must be because of the mother's unwillingness to be killed unjustly. The old slave has always kept the box, just wanting to save this old life to be able to see the empress. The day when I and the General were rehabilitated."

"The old servant thought His Highness had gone with His Majesty, but he didn't expect His Highness to be still alive! Now, the grievances between Your Majesty and the General must be cleared up one day, right?"

Zhao Congliang felt heartbroken when he thought of what happened back then, but such a good concubine was killed unjustly. Every time he went to this Meihua Palace, he dared not come in to take a look, he was afraid of hurting his feelings.

You can only come here to kowtow and worship quietly in the dead of night.

"Is that box still there?"

Long Yao was overjoyed, as long as there was evidence, it would be much easier to reverse the case for the general.

"Yes! Yes! The old slave hid in a hidden place, and I will dig it out at night."

"Just, what's going on, Your Highness?"

Zhao Congliang didn't understand, how did His Highness survive?

When he was imprisoned in the handyman's room, the empress was only two months pregnant, right?

"It's Aunt Zhima."

Mo Xun slowly told Zhao Congliang what he knew.

Zhao Congliang burst into tears when he heard this, and he only said that God has eyes, "Your Highness! If I had known that you lived here alone, the old slave would never let you suffer for so many years. It is the old slave who is sorry for you!"

If he hadn't been too timid to enter the Meihua Palace, he might have met His Highness long ago.

What's the use of regretting now?Your Highness is still suffering after all!

"It's none of your business! Aunt Zhi Ma is hiding me sincerely, even if you come in, you won't be able to see me."

There is a cellar in the Meihua Palace, where things were stored in the past. The imperial concubine always likes to keep a lot of things in the palace, and there is a lot of food in the cellar. He and Aunt Zhima have lived on the things in the cellar for several years.

Later, there was nothing to eat, and it was Aunt Zhima who went out to steal food at night and came back to eat.

'They have not been discovered for so many years, but they always like to hide in that cellar.

"Aunt Zhi Ma really has an idea, thanks to her taking care of His Highness."

He and Aunt Zhi Ma are considered to be from the same hometown, and they work together in the Meihua Palace. Both of them are dedicated to serving the imperial concubine and empress.

"Guan Zhao, since you know his identity, you should know what to do. I don't want anyone to know his identity for the time being."

Long Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief, this person will definitely not betray Mo Xun.

"This old slave would also like to thank girl Yao, it was you who discovered His Highness and took such good care of him, please be respected by this old slave!"

Zhao Congliang knelt on the ground without hesitation, and bowed deeply to Long Yao.

Long Yao helped him up and said, "Don't dare! From now on, we will all be grasshoppers on the same rope, and no one can escape, so the things here must be kept secret."

This Meihua Palace will not be stable for long, and now it can be stable for a while.

"This old slave understands what you mean. Don't worry, I won't let anyone approach me here. It's okay to live here temporarily, but I'm afraid I won't live here soon."

Zhao Congliang understands everything, this girl Yao is very capable, and she will soon stay away from this desolate place.

"Don't worry, before leaving here, I will let His Majesty recognize his identity as the prince, and then we will stand on the bright side."

From Zhao Congliang, Long Yao heard a lot about the preferences of former imperial concubines, and it was precisely because of these special preferences that the emperor had a soft spot for former imperial concubines.

The reason why the emperor has not established a queen in recent years is also because of the former noble concubine. The emperor fell in love with the former noble concubine at first sight, and it is not ruled out that there is a reason for wanting to get the support of General Qi.

It has to be said that the emperor had feelings for the former imperial concubine.

"It's good that girl Yao has a plan, it's inconvenient for the old slave to stay for a long time, and the old slave will come again at night."

Zhao Congliang withdrew from the Meihua Palace, his beating heart never calmed down.

He finally waited until this day, he can finally repay the kindness of the empress.

The night is as cold as water, and tonight's night sky is extraordinarily drowsy.

Zhao Congliang went to the courtyard where he lived and dug for a long time under an osmanthus tree.

"Fortunately, it's okay." Opening layers of outer packaging, a wooden box with a small lock appeared inside.

The box is one foot long and the width of a palm, and the pattern on it has not changed due to the erosion of the years.

Zhao Congliang held the box and looked around, and then quietly went to Meihua Palace with the box in his arms.

Long Yao and Mo Xun had already been waiting, and upon hearing the knock on the door, Long Yao ushered them into the room.

"Your Highness, Yao girl, these are those things, please open them and have a look."

Zhao Congliang took the box out of his arms and put it on the table.

Seeing that the box was still locked, Long Yao took out a hairpin and fiddled with it twice before opening it.

Inside is a stack of letters, a blood book, and a token.

There is a Lingzi written on the golden token, surrounded by carved dragon patterns, this thing is not something that ordinary people can use at first glance.

Long Yao picked up the blood book and looked at it. On it were the words and phrases of General Qi expressing his grievances.
