The emperor always wants to promise himself

448 Escape 5
Fang Xin shook her head and said: "I don't know, but isn't the Prince Regent investigating the poisoning incident recently? Maybe he has a clue and came here to report to His Majesty."

The queen narrowed her eyes, thought for a moment and said to Fangxin: "Quickly help Bengong to pull back his hair, I will go and have a look."

"Yes." Fang Xin took the jade comb from the Queen's hand and helped her comb her hair into a bun.

……

"Why did the prince come so early today? His Majesty hasn't gotten up yet."

Seeing Hua Ye, Fu Lu greeted him immediately with a smile on his face. Hua Ye kept walking towards the bedroom, and stopped at the bottom of the steps and asked him, "Is the empress inside?"

"The empress is not here yet, is the prince looking for the empress? The servant will invite—"

"No, I just asked casually. Since the empress is not inside, I will go in first."

After Hua Ye finished speaking, he stepped up the steps, pushed the door open, and walked in. Hua Ming just woke up and was still a little confused. When he heard someone open the door, he thought it was the queen, and subconsciously stretched out his hand from the bed curtain and said, "I'm thirsty. Pour me a glass of water."

Hua Ye turned to the table with a sudden step, poured him a glass of water, and put it in his hand, "Brother Huang is awake?"

Hua Ming sat up slowly in a daze, and lifted the curtain with one hand, "Why did you come here so early?"

After asking, his face changed, "But is there any progress in the case of poisoning?"

"Yesterday, the maid of the weaving department confessed. The younger brother used her as a bait to lure the people behind him into the bait. In the middle of the night yesterday, the younger brother personally led people to squat at the place where they used to meet, and indeed caught one person."

Hua Ming drank the water in the bowl in one breath, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is it?"

"Looking at his appearance and behavior, he looks like someone trained a secret guard. The younger brother interrogated him last night, but he couldn't pry his mouth open."

Speaking of this, Hua Ye showed a bit of shame on his face.

"You don't have to be like this. What the secret guard wants is loyalty, and he won't confess easily. It's really not easy to pry his mouth open."

Hua Ming put down the empty bowl, Hua Ye immediately took it and put it aside.

Seeing him being so caring and meticulous, Hua Ming felt much more at ease.

"It's been a whole night of interrogation, thank you for your hard work, where is that man now?"

"I was afraid that I would startle the snake, so I didn't take him back, but locked him in the dungeon of Dali Temple."

"You did a good job. Torture may not be effective. Let's find another way to find out who he has contacts with and whether his family members are still alive. People will have weaknesses when they are alive. As long as they are caught, I am not afraid that he will not recruit." .” Hua Ming’s face was gloomy.

"Your brother sent someone to force him into the palace in a short while. After all, there are not as many instruments of torture in Dali Temple as there are in the palace. The eunuchs are better at torturing people."

This sentence reminded Hua Ming, he thought for a while and said: "Then put him in the slavery department, I will try him personally."

"Brother Huang, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. The Sin slaves department is such a dirty place, how can you let Brother Huang set foot here?"

Hua Ye looked at Hua Ming disapprovingly.

"They all want my life, and I still care about that? Besides, I am the Son of Heaven, so where can I not go?"

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Hua Ye stopped persuading him, stood up and said to him: "Then brother, let's eat first, it's not too late to go after breakfast."

"En." Hua Ming responded, and suddenly heard footsteps outside, he looked up.

The queen held Fangxin's hand, and walked over with lotus steps. When she saw Hua Ye, she was stunned, pretending to know just now, and asked, "Why did the regent come so early today? Have you had breakfast yet?"

"not yet."

"Then stay together."

Fulu went to pass the meal, the queen came over and helped Hua Ming get up and get dressed.

"Is there something wrong with the regent here? But have you caught the culprit of poisoning?"

The queen asked casually, Hua Ye stepped aside and said, "The mastermind behind the scenes has not been caught yet, but the person who poisoned him has been found. Now the case is still under trial, so we can't make a conclusion yet."

"So that's the case. If we find out who is the mastermind behind it, we will definitely punish him severely. If you dare to attack His Majesty, you really have the guts of a bear."

The queen said angrily, and after putting the golden crown on Hua Ming, she helped him sit down at the table.

Hua Ming's expression was gloomy and he didn't say anything.

Soon Fu Lu greeted the palace people to bring the food. During the meal, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very heavy. After eating, the Queen looked at Hua Ye and Hua Ming and asked, "What is the Prince Regent planning to do next?" What? Continue to interrogate the prisoner?"

Hua Ye turned his head to look at Hua Ming and said, "I want to take the emperor brother to the Slavery to interrogate the criminals. Do you want the empress to go with me?"

"I won't go, I'm timid, if I watch those bloody scenes, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night."

She held Hua Ming's hand and earnestly told him: "Your Majesty can't stay inside for too long even if you are interrogating the criminals, be careful not to hurt your blood."

"I know, I have a measure."

Hua Ming smiled at the Queen, and squeezed her fingers comfortingly.

"Since you all have to go to work, the concubine will not delay you, and the concubine will leave."

"Go."

Watching the queen leave, Hua Ming got up and said to Hua Ye, "Let's go."

"Yes, my brother helped the emperor to go there."

As soon as the two left the front foot, the Queen received the news on the back foot. The Queen went out and looked at the two people's backs, her eyes gradually turned cold.

She turned her face and said to Fang Xin in a low voice: "Go ask the imperial dining room to make some snacks, I will deliver them to Ben Gong later, and then go to the warehouse to pick out some gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, Ben Gong is going to visit Xiao Yu at the Palace of Ming Dynasty. "

"Yes, servant girl will do it now."

……

As soon as noon arrived, the queen took a group of people out of the palace in a mighty manner, only saying that she would come back soon after leaving the palace to relax, so that people don't have to disturb Hua Ming and Hua Ye.

The queen was walking from the main street in a sedan chair, and when she passed by Qingyun Restaurant, just in time for some event being held at Qingyun Restaurant, a group of people gathered at the door, and the sound of firecrackers kept crackling.

When the sedan chair passed by, someone suddenly rushed out from inside and yelled: "Happy candy and copper coins are distributed, everyone who sees has a share, first come, first served!"

The common people first backed away and got close to the sedan chair, and then more common people were attracted by the sound of gongs and drums.

The street was very lively for a while, and the maids following the sedan chair were crowded by people.

Originally, there were guards opening the way for the queen to travel, so it was absolutely impossible to cause such a chaotic situation.

But today the empress only brought a few maids with her, she was very low-key, and the sedan chair she took was just an ordinary sedan chair, not a phoenix one, so no one thought about the empress.

The chaos broke out again suddenly, before everyone could react, the maids had already been dispersed.

"Hey, what are you doing? Get out of the way!"

"Do you know who is sitting in this sedan chair? How dare you be so rude?"

The maids shouted, but their voices were too low, they were drowned in the crowd and could hardly be heard.

The sedan chair was also blocked, unable to move forward, and could only stop in place.
