As soon as the word "Turk" came out, everyone at the scene froze on the spot.
There is no need to say more about who the Turks are.
Daxia and the Turks originally signed a century-old truce agreement, but in recent years, the Turks have continued to send troops to suppress the border, and they are ready to go to war.
Lu Hanxiao had been guarding the border before, so that the Turks did not dare to invade.
Now that he has not returned to the border, the Turks have begun to provoke Daxia again. This is bullying Daxia.
The emperor knew very well that Lu Hanxiao was making a fuss about the Turks, and he had to investigate the matter thoroughly.
If we don't investigate and the Turks really invade in the future, then he will be the sinner.
The emperor glared fiercely at the queen who was standing aside. The queen did not expect why the good Lu Hanxiao would involve the Turks.
If he really allowed him to investigate thoroughly, he would inevitably involve himself.
The queen hurriedly stopped the man and said, "General Lu, it's just a small matter. Why do you want to involve enemy spies? It seems that the people on the ground are not Turks."
Lu Hanxiao raised his eyebrows and looked at her, with a calm expression on his face, and asked calmly.
"Oh, how can the queen know that the people on the ground are not Turks? Do you know them?"
The queen choked, stood there awkwardly and shook her head.
"I don't recognize it."
"Since you don't recognize it, how can the queen dare to say that the people on the ground are not Turkic spies? If this person has accomplices, let his accomplices go and let them take the information back, which will damage the national destiny of our Daxia, the queen may Can you afford it?”
The queen's face could no longer be described as ugly. With such a big hat off her head, if she dared to say that she could take responsibility, she would be arrested by the spies.
She stood aside and didn't dare to speak nonsense. She scolded Lu Hanxiao in her heart, but she didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on her face.
Wrong things also depend on what you did wrong. It is one thing to murder a minister's wife, but it is another thing to become a traitor.
The queen was not stupid enough to ignore the importance. She just hated Lu Hanxiao and wondered where Si Ning and Concubine Shu had gone. Why were they nowhere to be seen?
Everything was clearly arranged, so why did something go wrong?
While the queen was puzzled, the emperor had already sent people to check the identities of the two people. At the same time, Lu Hanxiao also suggested searching the yard to see if there were any clues left during the fight between the two.
One of these two people is a palace maid and the other is a spy. Why do they want to meet here? Is it to convey some news.
The queen watched from the side, always having a bad feeling.
But when I thought about it again, I felt that my worries were unfounded.
Neither Concubine Shu nor Si Ning could have known their plans in advance. Concubine Shu was definitely dead. As for why the dead Concubine Shu and the assailant Si Ning were not seen here, maybe it was because Si Ning discovered something was wrong when he came. There, Concubine Shu's body was hidden.
Yes, that must be the case.
Thinking of this, the queen's anxious heart calmed down again.
Now as long as they find Concubine Shu's body and Si Ning, they still can't escape in this round.
Si Ning couldn't run far away dragging a corpse, and she had no internal contacts in the palace, so it would be easy to find her.
The queen planned everything in order to get rid of Si Ning and Concubine Shu at the same time.
She brought people here to show everyone the dead Concubine Shu and Si Ning with the murder weapon in his hand.
She planted someone in the dark, and after that person killed Concubine Shu, he knocked out Si Ning and put the murder weapon into her hand. When she and her people came across this scene, Si Ning couldn't explain clearly even if he had the ability to speak.
Although something went wrong now, the queen felt that she was still in control.
So she stepped forward and spoke to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, just now General Lu suspected that these two people were spies and said that they had accomplices. Since this is the case, it is better to seal off the entire harem and have people check every palace to see if there is anything strange. Also check the cold palace. Look, you can’t miss any place, if the accomplice hides here and does harm to the emperor, you will be in trouble.”
The emperor was unhappy as he listened, but before he could speak, Lu Hanxiao spoke first.
"What the Queen said is absolutely true. Please make an edict from your Majesty and make sure not to let anyone go."
The queen took a deep look at Lu Hanxiao and saw that he supported her, which further confirmed her thoughts.
He didn't know yet that Si Ning hid Concubine Shu's body, otherwise he would have stopped her.
The emperor nodded and waved his hand, and the palace officials began to search everywhere.
The Queen felt very proud, just waiting to find Concubine Shu and Si Ning and watch a good show.
This time, Si Ning will definitely die, so she has nothing to do against him and always refutes her son. Apart from this eyesore, she can be more peaceful.
At that time, I will think of ways to involve Lu Hanxiao to see if he can still stand by his son.
When the queen's abacus sounded loudly, the palace servants who were searching the palace in front of them ran back to resume their lives first.
These people were all palace guards, not ordinary palace people. They quickly came back with something in the corner.
They presented the things to the emperor, who took them and his expression changed immediately.
The thing looked like a fragment of a letter. Only a corner of it could be glimpsed, but just this corner was enough for the emperor to guess what it was.
He snapped with anger on his face.
"presumptuous!"
Everyone was puzzled, but Long Yan was so angry that they all knelt on the ground, lowering their heads and not daring to say a word.
Lu Hanxiao also knelt down, but he was not as careful as the people next to him. Instead, he asked the emperor coldly.
"Your Majesty, what is it?"
The emperor held the fragment in his hand, looked at Lu Hanxiao, his eyes darkened, and gave instructions.
"Han Xiao, take people to each palace to search for me and find out who is planning to rebel!"
boom!
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and shocked.
Treason and rebellion, no matter which word is put on the head, it is enough to rip off the nine tribes!
The ministers and wives who were kneeling on the ground were trembling, praying in their hearts that they would not be harmed, otherwise they would not be able to chop off ten heads.
They regretted getting involved, as it turns out this palace is a place where people eat people.
Someone looked up to see the queen asking for help, but the queen's face was also pale.
It was just a plot to figure out how Si Ning and Concubine Shu were involved in the rebellion.
What exactly was the fragment in the emperor's hand, and why did he let Lu Hanxiao go to the harem to search for evidence.
She just felt that her head was in a mess, and the uneasy feeling she felt until now came back again.
Could it be that she fell into someone else's trap?
After thinking about it, I quickly put an end to this idea. I must be worrying unfoundedly. It won't happen, it won't happen for sure.
Soon the palace servants who had gone to various palaces to search came back and hurriedly reported.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is in trouble. Concubine Shu was hit on the back of the head. Her life or death is uncertain now!"
The queen's eyes suddenly flashed with light, and the uneasiness in her heart disappeared.
The show is coming!
