Before the Queen Mother took refuge in Ci'an Palace, she had never been stimulated or had anything unpleasant happened.
When Rong Cang was young, she would occasionally go out for a walk. Whenever she talked about her son with him, the Queen Mother would always look like he was hesitant to speak.
Emperor Mu remembered that the Queen Mother seemed to ask him to pay more attention to Rong Cang, but at that time, government affairs were too busy, neighboring countries repeatedly provoked and invaded, and the treasury could not make ends meet. He had little time to care about the affairs of the harem and his children.
Now that I think about it, does the Queen Mother know some hidden secrets?
"Your Majesty, someone from the Chen Palace is missing." Chen Zhong left and returned quickly, with a somewhat strange tone, "I heard that it was the demon who raised poison, named Qian Qi. After gambling in Changle Square yesterday afternoon Suddenly disappeared, King Chen sent a large number of people to search continuously, but he was never found."
Emperor Mu looked slightly shocked: "Disappeared suddenly?"
"Yes." Yang Dexi nodded, "His Royal Highness Chen Wang was worried about alerting the Holy Master, so he did not dare to search in a big way. The people sent out during the day were careful to search. At night, several groups of people were sent out, but the whereabouts of the monster was never found."
Emperor Mu quickly calmed down and said thoughtfully: "It seems that someone caught this person before me."
"emperor?"
"You said just now that he disappeared in Changlefang?" Emperor Mu frowned, "This monster is still hanging around the casino?"
"It should be." Yang Dexi nodded slowly, and then asked for instructions, "Will the emperor send someone to check?"
A gambler who hangs around gambling houses must have been seen by many people. As long as he has his portrait, whenever he shows up in the future, the ubiquitous imperial guards inside and outside the imperial city will be able to catch him in an instant.
"No need for the moment, let's invite Rong Cang into the palace first..." Emperor Mu ordered, then suddenly paused, "Forget it, he has just detoxified from the poison in his body, let him stay at home and have a good rest for two days. Bar."
In two days there will be a flower viewing banquet hosted by the Queen.
At that time, he would have to choose a suitable concubine among those women, and then arrange for the concubine to enter the palace, and he would have to be busy for a while.
But speaking of concubines...
"Yang Dexi." Emperor Mu suddenly raised his head and looked at the personal eunuch, with a trace of hesitation in his eyes, "Do you think that if I choose a concubine for Rong Cang, will Princess Zhan be unhappy?"
Princess Zhan is still pregnant, so it seems a bit inappropriate for him to choose his concubine at this time.
Emperor Mu suddenly felt that he was a little hasty.
"Maybe not?" Yang Dexi was surprised, then hesitated, "Princess Zhan is a gentle and generous woman, she..."
"It's true to be gentle and generous, but it's also true to have a strong temper." Emperor Mu interrupted him, suddenly feeling a little unsure, "Rong Cang got angry and wanted to divorce his wife. She could force her father to go to the palace to impeach her. If If you rashly give him a concubine, given Princess Zhan’s temper, will she resist the order on the spot?”
Yang Dexi laughed: "Your Majesty, you are overly worried. How dare Concubine Zhan resist the decree? Besides, His Highness, Prince Zhan, has already adopted a concubine? Another concubine in the palace should not have any impact."
Concubine?
Emperor Mu thought that the concubine in Rong Cang Mansion had gone away under the orders of King Chen, with ulterior motives. In addition, she still had mother poison in her body, which made her a useless person in this life. Princess Zhan was willing to take pity on her and let her She stayed in the palace, had no worries about food and clothing, and lived out her life quietly, which was already considered a kindness. There was no way she would be allowed to get close to Rong Cang again.
If she had been a person who was determined to retaliate, she would have been drowned in a sinking pond long after Rong Cang's poison was detoxified.
When Emperor Mu thought of this, he felt more and more confused. With so many things happening in Prince Zhan's palace recently, the princess had to worry a lot. Although he chose Rong Cang's concubine for their own good, he still felt a little guilty.
Emperor Mu thought about it for a moment alone, and decided to go to Shuhuang Palace to discuss it with the queen.
"Show me." He stood up and said, "Go to Shuhuang Palace."
"yes."
…
After Emperor Mu left, Concubine Gu felt a strong panic.
Thinking of what Ji Ziyi said about the art of witchcraft, the blood in her whole body froze. She couldn't believe how angry the emperor would be if he knew that Prince Chen's residence had a voodoo breeder, and whether he would even go on a killing spree.
The art of witchcraft, the art of witchcraft.
Such shady things have always been taboo for emperors in the palace.
just in case……
Concubine Gu was so exhausted from a night of pain that she should have gone back to bed and had a good rest, but at this time she had no intention of catching up on her sleep, and was so anxious that she was thinking of countermeasures in her mind.
"Which of you can think of a way to get out of the palace and deliver a message to King Chen?"
A palace maid came forward and knelt down: "Back to the imperial concubine, the emperor ordered the palace door to be closed, saying that the imperial concubine is unwell and needs to rest..."
Wow!
Concubine Gu suddenly waved down the tea cup and utensils in her hand, her face turned livid with anger: "Damn it!"
Is the emperor going to imprison her again?
"Your Majesty, please calm down." All the people in the palace knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Concubine Gu did not speak, she closed her eyes gently, suppressed the anxiety and anger in her heart, and kept convincing herself in her heart that maybe the emperor really just wanted her to rest.
But even so, the inability to confirm the news outside the palace with Prince Chen and his wife still made her uncontrollably uneasy.
Who is that Ji Ziyi who can see the magic of witchcraft at a glance?
What does it mean if my abdominal pain is really related to witchcraft? Do you also have that dirty thing in your body that makes life worse than death?
Who bewitched her?
Concubine Gu's expression changed little by little, and she suddenly began to retching...
The palace people immediately became confused and hurriedly came forward with a spittoon to serve: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?"
Concubine Gu felt a buzzing in her ears, which made her irritable and wanted to kill someone. However, the uneasy feeling in her heart became more and more intense. She suddenly remembered that the poison in Rong Cang's body should have reacted long ago.
Ji Ziyi appeared in the capital, did she come for Rong Cang?
He knows the art of witchcraft and poison, so is he good at undoing poison? If the poison in Rong Cang's body is removed by him, does it mean that he will no longer be controlled by her and King Chen?
There is also the poison in the emperor's body. Can Ji Ziyi see it?
The more Concubine Gu thought about it, the more frightened she became. She hadn't heard any news from Prince Chen's Mansion for several days?
In the past, when she stayed in the deep palace, she would always be accompanied by Prince Chen and Jin Yue. She only felt that time passed very quickly and Zhaochen Palace was always a bit lively. However, in recent days, it seemed like the days had passed like years, and the whole palace was filled with loneliness and desolation. …
