When we arrived at the palace gate, it turned out that there was already a curfew in the palace.
However, the imperial troops guarding the city had obviously been greeted by Zhang Bao.
The Forbidden Army greeted Lu Qian and let him go.
Lu Qian went back to the Ancestral Temple without stopping.
After Xiao Anzi saw Lu Qian, he asked with surprise
"Master Lu, aren't you recuperating outside the palace? Why are you back?"
"Did something big happen in the palace?" Lu Qian looked at Xiao Anzi and asked in surprise.
Xiao Anzi was stunned and said to Lu Qian, "Master Lu, nothing serious happened? What's wrong?"
Seeing Xiao Anzi's answer, Lu Qian felt even more uneasy.
"Do you have a way to find Gao Weixin?" As soon as he asked, he saw Gao Weixin coming towards the door and said, "No..."
Lu Qian took Gao Weixin to his house.
"Eunuch Gao, what happened? Are you looking for me in such a hurry?" Lu Qian said to Gao Weixin.
Gao Weixin looked at Lu Qian and said, "Xiao Qianzi, I told you! You must ensure that you can keep yourself calm!"
"Come on! Did something happen to Concubine Li?" Lu Qian asked with a frown.
Gao Weixin glanced at Lu Qian in surprise, nodded and said, "Concubine Li is missing!"
"Missing? How could he disappear in the palace?" Lu Qian asked nervously.
Gao Weixin frowned and spoke in detail.
About noon yesterday, Queen Xiaojing called Concubine Li to Jingren Palace.
Since Xiaodie was not allowed to follow, Xiaodie waited until night, but no one came back.
Just go find it.
But the people in Jingren Palace denied that they had ever looked for Concubine Li.
Everyone in Jingren Palace also said that they had never seen Concubine Li at all.
Princess Shuyang went to see the emperor.
The emperor also asked Zhang Bao to investigate.
But Concubine Li seemed to have disappeared from the world.
Even though Gao Weixin had many eyes and ears in the palace, he didn't find out.
He felt that this was done so seamlessly.
It must have been premeditated.
After all, Concubine Li has now been relegated to the cold palace and poses no threat.
Now that Concubine Li is being kidnapped, there is only one person she is targeting.
That is Lu Qian.
Their purpose may be to make Lu Qian show up.
Gao Weixin knew that Lu Qian valued Concubine Li very much, so he went to find Lu Qian immediately.
As long as Lu Qian showed up, someone might be looking for him.
Lu Qian frowned slightly, "Look who it is..."
"It should be someone from Jingren Palace." Gao Weixin replied.
Lu Qian nodded and was silent for a moment. Concubine Li was his weakness.
For a while, there really was no better way.
"You don't need to be too nervous. They must have their own purpose in tying up Concubine Li. They will not hurt him until they achieve their purpose." Gao Weixin said.
Lu Qian nodded.
Early the next morning, Lu Qian went to Jingren Palace early.
After Queen Xiaojing saw Lu Qian, her face showed disdain.
He still said with a condescending expression.
"Hmph, Xiao Qianzi. You are such a shy turtle, you finally dare to show your face! Tell me, what benefits did the Huo family give you? Did you betray us to offend the Prince of England?"
Lu Qian was slightly stunned. It was obvious that they knew about his visit to the Huo family.
"Queen, you are wronged...I didn't do it!" Lu Qian denied.
"No? If not, why would Xia Xingbang and the others speak for you and help you get out! You also went to General Huo's Mansion and gave them advice, right?" Queen Xiaojing looked at Lu Qian coldly and asked.
Lu Qian quickly waved his hands to deny it and said with an apologetic smile, "Mother, I was wronged...I didn't do this to them."
What about a set? I didn't mean to intensify the conflict between the Huo family and the old prince! This time, the Huo family didn't arrest Prince Ying's people. They are now like fire and water. If the Prince of England is smart, he will definitely win over His Highness. With the support of the old prince, isn't it easy for our Highness to become the crown prince? "
Lu Qian's explanation made the queen somewhat satisfied and said, "Okay, even if what you said is true. I am not afraid of you betraying us now! Huh, I didn't expect that you, a eunuch, would still have a relationship with that *** Concubine Li. It’s really extraordinary! Concubine Li is now in our hands. You, a dog slave, work well for us. I guarantee his safety...otherwise...hum..."
Lu Qian couldn't help but feel a little cold. It was indeed them.
They seek death again and again, testing their own bottom line.
After confirming that Concubine Li was in their hands, Lu Qian also had his own plan!
Of course, all this must be done first to stabilize them.
"Empress, there is a misunderstanding. Concubine Li and I are innocent. The reason why I care about her is entirely because she is kind to me! Moreover, I have been in your trenches from the beginning to the end... Queen, you know that I and the people of Jingyang Palace are at odds with each other!"
"Humph, I don't care about your relationship! Since you are back, you will go to Prince Ying's residence later to plead guilty with Prince Ying! Let him vent his anger. Forget it." Empress Xiaojing said coldly.
Lu Qian smiled apologetically and said, "My dear, please spare my life... The Prince of Ying, who has offended me, asked me to go to his house to plead guilty. Doesn't this mean I'm going to die?"
"Humph, now the Prince of England and the old princes have made it clear that they will support Wenzhi as the crown prince! Therefore, we can't ruin our cooperation just because of your rat turds. Don't worry, I will only let you suffer some physical pain at most, and I won't want you Life! If you don't go...then, maybe one day Concubine Li's body will appear in the well of Leng Palace!" Queen Xiaojing said with a gloomy look.
"Little one, go...little one, go..." Lu Qian looked like he was frightened by the queen.
The Queen sneered and said, "Okay, you can wait in Prince Wen's Mansion later. Wenzhi will take you to apologize."
Lu Qian nodded and retreated.
Seeing Lu Qian's leaving figure, the queen snorted coldly, "What kind of living god? In my hands, you have to be obedient!"
Lu Qian asked Gao Weixin to send people to keep an eye on everyone in Jingren Palace.
He himself came out of the palace, and he thought of the mysterious organization he met in the prison.
This group of people can even sneak into the Tianlao, so they must find someone who is better at it.
As for the Prince of England, I still want to go.
Because it will be difficult to implement the Prince of England's next plan if he doesn't figure it out.
After leaving the palace, he went directly to the south of the city and found the coffin shop the man mentioned.
There was only an old man in the coffin shop with a wrinkled face and a skinny face.
The old man was hunched over painting a coffin.
With the coffin inside, it really feels like a horror movie.
"Old sir..." Lu Qian started to say
The old man slowly turned his head and interrupted: "Mr. Lu, you are finally here!"
"You know me?" Lu Qian looked at the old man in surprise and said.
The old man smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Lu, are you joking...could it be that you don't recognize the old man anymore?"
After saying that, those cloudy eyes stared straight at Lu Qian.
The best emperor master
