219 A sudden turn of events
"The emperor has not appointed another concubine, but the girls sent by the courtiers are temporarily living in the courtyards of the West Palace. // Fastest update 78.//[7~8](.)" Qiaoyun has been in the palace for many years, so Seeing that the emperor has a lot of concubines, today is the day to be granted the title of empress, so naturally no concubine will be granted, but in the future, whoever the emperor favors in the West Palace will naturally be promoted.
Qing Yi bit her lip lightly, wondering if Caiyun was also in the West Palace at this time, "How many beauties live in the West Palace now?"
Qiao Yun shook his head lightly, "These days, courtiers have been sent in one after another. Eunuch Cao, the steward of the harem, took over. The emperor has just taken over the world and is busy with affairs. They don't dare to report here to disturb the emperor." , so I don’t know how many there are.”
"So Xiao Hua doesn't know the existence of these beauties?"
"I heard that the court officials vaguely mentioned the matter of concubine. As for the beauty, I have never served the emperor. I wonder if the emperor knows."
Qiaoyun also knew people in the court. I heard that the courtiers recommended women from official families to the emperor and asked the emperor to make them concubines, but they were all rejected.
The courtiers had no choice but to be cautious, and colluded with the harem stewards to secretly send the girl to the palace, looking for an opportunity to send the girl to the emperor's dragon bed. If they could please him, they would not think of making Qingyi his queen.
The emperor did not know about this matter.
Unexpectedly, in those days, Marquis Pingyang, who had not yet become the emperor, did not wander around the palace at all. He was busy dealing with state affairs. Even if he was tired, he would only rest in the study of Yongning Palace, which was not allowed in Yongning Palace without the permission of the emperor. The concubines came.
The daughters of the ministers' families they arranged could only linger around Yongning Palace, hoping that he would take a walk nearby when he got bored.
pity. As soon as it gets dark, the dragon disappears without a trace, and he doesn't know where he went, often the next day. Appearing directly in the Golden Palace, those ladies could not even see his face. What other solutions can be used?
Qiaoyun, as a senior palace maid, naturally knew about these things and had been ordered to keep a lookout for those beauties. [7~8]
She is a smart person and knows that if the emperor really likes a beauty, it will be okay, but if he doesn't like her, it will be fine. [ ] Then those who are involved in these things cannot escape the relationship. She didn't dare to offend the courtiers and beauties openly, nor did she dare to offend the stewards of the harem. She agreed openly, but secretly she would not do anything to tell the truth.
result. Every time Marquis Pingyang came to Yongning Palace, he would always be accompanied by Muze, and only Muze would serve him. As soon as Muze came, he would send them all away. She couldn't even wait to serve tea and water. Naturally, It is not clear whether Pingyang Hou will stay or go.
In this way, she found a reason not to leak the news, which made her secretly happy.
But she doesn't care whether she copes with it or not. After all, she had promised it, but if we really found out, she would still have to bear some responsibility.
Now, none of those beauties have climbed up, Qing Yi has still become the queen, and lives directly in Yongning Palace. Seeing the emperor's intention, he had no intention of arranging another palace for Qing Yi. From now on, the husband and wife would sleep together.
This move was undoubtedly a slap in the face to those courtiers.
Everyone in the harem, who is not worried?
When Qiao Yun was asked by Qing Yi, she didn't dare to say these things, and she didn't dare to completely deny that she didn't know. Her heart was beating fast and she lowered her head, fearing that Qing Yi would see something.
Qing Yi is a person who came out of the Black Gate, so no matter what others say, it will be whatever he says.
He couldn't help but look at Qiao Yun a few more times. Qiao Yun tried his best to hide it, but his tense body still fell into Qing Yi's eyes.
There is something wrong with this Nishinomiya.
I was thinking that maybe I could take the time to visit the West Palace.
As soon as the idea came to mind, I saw many maids coming in carrying various objects. When I saw those things clearly, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
When I woke up in the morning, I hurriedly changed my clothes and went to worship heaven and ancestors. I thought that these complicated rituals could be avoided, but I didn't know that I would have to make up for them later.
***
The maids retreated.
Tsing Yi was left alone sitting by the bed. The bright red clothes and the bright red tear candle were all very familiar.
Qing Yi looked around in confusion, as if he had returned to that night in the new moon. ? ?
I was wondering, could he spend the night here tonight?
Just as he was feeling uneasy, he suddenly heard a commotion outside. Qing Yi ran to the door and opened the door. He saw bright lights outside and people coming and going, but he didn't know what was going on. []
He called Qiao Yun who was running by in a hurry, "What happened?"
Qiao Yun glanced at Qing Yi timidly, lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry... someone has assassinated the emperor."
Qing Yi's heart tightened suddenly, "How is he? Is he injured?"
Qiaoyun said: "I heard that he is unconscious."
Qing Yi's head was buzzing, and she rushed down the steps with her skirt in hand. She looked at the bluestone pavement in front of her and didn't know where it was leading. Then she remembered that although she had peeked at the palace map, this huge palace required her to go. Where to find someone?
He turned around and asked Qiaoyun, "Where is the emperor?"
Qiaoyun suddenly knelt down and said, "My queen, please go back to the palace."
Qing Yi's eyelids twitched, an ominous feeling came over him, and he asked again in a deep voice, "Where is Xiao Hua?"
Qiaoyun kowtowed and went down, saying hastily: "Please come back to the palace."
Qing Yi secretly took a breath, turned around and left without asking any more questions.
After taking a few steps, he was stopped by a group of guards, led by Ling Feng, an old acquaintance of Qing Yi.
"Empress, where are you going?" Ling Feng said with a straight face, saying the word 'Empress' reluctantly.
"General Ling came just in time. Take me to see Xiao Hua." Qing Yi hurried forward.
"Your Majesty, it's better to go back to the palace and rest." Ling Feng said in a cold tone.
"How is Xiao Hua's injury?" The ominous feeling in Qing Yi's heart quickly worsened.
"I can't die, do you feel disappointed?" A trace of hatred flashed in Ling Feng's eyes.
"Who did it?" Qingyi automatically filtered out the sarcasm in Ling Feng's words.
"Your Majesty, you are asking this question knowingly." Ling Feng's face became even more ugly.
"What do you mean, general?" Qing Yi frowned slightly.
"The assassin sneaked into the palace through a secret passage. Apart from the emperor and King Nanyang, the only one who knows the secret passage in the palace is the Duke of Chu. Does your Majesty need me to explain it more clearly?"
Ling Feng is a straight-tempered person, and he can't get rid of the sand in his eyes.
When I think about it, Xiao Hua resisted the pressure of the ministers and forcefully protected the Duke of Chu. However, the Duke of Chu did not change his ambition. While sending his daughter into the palace to deceive everyone, he secretly sent an assassin to sneak into the palace to assassinate Xiao Hua. Tsing Yi is even more deeply in love, but Tsing Yi takes advantage of Xiao Hua's love for her to help her father plan to assassinate Xiao Hua, and things go crazy.
If he wasn't worried about Xiao Hua, he would have killed Qing Yi with his sword on the spot.
"Is this General Ling's intention or Xiao Hua's intention?" Qing Yi calmed down.
"It's obvious what's going on here, who else needs to say something?" Ling Feng snorted heavily.
"Let me meet Xiao Hua." Qing Yi knew that Ling Feng was loyal to Xiao Hua. Now that Xiao Hua was injured, Ling Feng naturally turned his anger on her. It was useless for her to say anything now.
"Ling Feng doesn't dare to let the empress see the emperor."
"Are you afraid that I will assassinate Xiao Hua?" Qing Yi raised his head slightly and looked directly at Ling Feng.
Ling Feng said "yes" without even thinking about it. Just as he was about to say it, he saw the sarcastic look in Qing Yi's eyes and swallowed the words that came to his lips.
If she were in the same car with Xiao Hua today, if she wanted to assassinate Xiao Hua, there would be plenty of opportunities, and there would be no need to do it when everyone is on high alert.
But the person who assassinated Xiao Hua today was indeed a member of the Duke of Chu. For this reason, he could not let Qing Yi see Xiao Hua.
"In any case, your Majesty can't get rid of what happened today, so you should invite your Majesty back to the palace." He said with a wink to the left and right, "Why are you standing there, why don't you invite your Majesty back to the palace?"
The guards behind Ling Feng immediately stepped forward.
Ling Feng was a fierce general on the battlefield, but he also had good skills off the battlefield. Not to mention that Qing Yi had lost all his skills now. Even if he hadn't lost any of his skills, he might not be able to fight against Ling Feng and this large group of elite soldiers.
In the current situation, if you fight hard, you won't get any benefits at all, and it's impossible to see Xiao Hua.
Qing Yi turned around and glanced at Qiao Yun who was kneeling on the ground, then turned and walked away.
The current plan can only be implemented step by step.
The door was closed tightly, leaving only Qiao Yun serving in the room. The door was quickly surrounded by people brought by Ling Feng.
Qing Yi looked at Qiao Yun again and whispered: "Why do you persuade me to return to the palace?"
Although Ling Feng also forced her to return to the palace, Qing Yi's intuition was that Qiao Yun's purpose in letting her return to the palace was different from Ling Feng's.
Qiao Yun quickly glanced at the door, making sure that no one would hear their conversation, and then lowered her voice and said: "Mu Ze sent someone to send a message, saying that the palace has been put under martial law by Master Ling Fengling. The emperor is now unconscious, but Master Ling Yun has already Come here, the emperor will be fine, let the empress wait for news in the palace with peace of mind, and don't wander around until the emperor wakes up."
Qing Yi has already seen the little eunuch named Mu Ze next to Xiao Hua today. He is an extremely elf.
Muze has been with Xiao Hua for a long time, and must know Xiao Hua's thoughts. At the same time, he knows that Xiao Hua was assassinated. If the assassin is the Duke of Chu, then she will have a hard time getting away from it, so Ling Feng and other loyal ministers will not let her go. , so she secretly sent a message to her to stay in Yongning Palace and not to walk around, so as not to collide with the resentful ministers and cause death. Everything will be done after Xiao Hua wakes up.
"Lord Ling Yun, please see your empress." A message came from outside.
Qing Yi stood up calmly and said: "Please." Qiao Yun hurriedly stepped forward to open the door.
Ling Yun was much darker than the last time Qing Yi saw him, and his expression was more solemn. He was not as casual and friendly as the last time he saw him.
He saluted Qing Yi and said to Qiao Yun, "You go out first."
Qiao Yun looked at Qing Yi and saw Qing Yi nodded lightly before retreating and closing the door.
Qing Yi didn't wait for Ling Yun to speak and asked first, "How is he?"
Of course Ling Yun knew who he was in her mouth, and said: "Nothing has happened. He will wake up in about one stick of incense."
Qing Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "Has the assassin been caught?" Xiao Hua was fine, so she began to worry about her father.
"Already caught, but while being arrested, he committed suicide by taking poison." Ling Yun's tone was much softer than Ling Feng's.
"Who is the assassin who can hurt Xiao Hua?" Marquis Pingyang was extremely skilled in kung fu. The Snake Kingdom had many dead soldiers but they couldn't do anything to him. Qing Yi couldn't think of anyone who could hurt him.
"This is the reason why I came to ask to see your empress." Ling Yun looked directly at Qing Yi...
