The little girl hides her secrets

Chapter 226 226. Repair
"If Mr. Gu thinks that this palace will kill the emperor for a person who beats and scolds this palace frequently, then you say yes." Chen Shiheng suddenly calmed down, and said calmly: "But this palace wants to remind Mr. Gu that this place wants to kill the emperor." Father has a lot of people, you have to check carefully."

Gu Yuefei's eyes flickered, he lowered the corners of his mouth, bowed to Chen Shiheng with a gloomy face, and left in a hurry.

Chen Shiheng snorted coldly, squeezed half of the safety button in his hand and murmured: "Mother, these ministers are really getting more and more impolite."

Gu Yuefei was walking in the palace, and there was a sound of ping-pong-pong from the surrounding courtyards. It was the servants who were repairing the damaged parts of the palace wall.In the past few days, the palace has suffered disasters, and there are small damages in many places. It is absolutely impossible to let it go.

Gu Yuefei hadn't had a good rest for several days, his brain was already a little chaotic, and he was even more irritable when he heard these voices. He deliberately walked around, and a tile suddenly hit him on the head. His slow brain prevented him from dodging in time. There was a sound, Gu Yuefei snorted, and then fell to the ground, unconscious.

This frightened the repair workers, they hurriedly sent Gu Yuefei to the Tai Hospital, complaining repeatedly, the days have been difficult these days, and now that something like this happened again, they suddenly felt that their lives would not be guaranteed.

Fortunately, Gu Yuefei's injuries were not serious. The main reason for his fainting was actually poor rest. This tile was just an opportunity.

As soon as the news of Gu Yuefei's fainting spread, the nobles trapped in the palace seemed to have found an opportunity and collectively asked to leave the palace. A sign of riots.

The wall fell and everyone pushed, the palace couldn't hold back the aura outside, and finally let them out and let them go back to their homes.

Yun Yao was not a member of the rebellion, neither she nor Yu An went back with the crowd, but stayed with Fifth Zishu and took care of Fifth Zang with him.

Before you know it, it is dawn, and there are faint crisp birdsong outside the window. It turns out that there are birds that are not afraid of the cold in winter, standing on the branches and singing happily.

This cry was incompatible with the oppressive atmosphere of the palace, but it woke up Gu Yuefei who was on the bed.He sat up, felt a faint stabbing pain in his head, and saw a group of servants kneeling on the ground at a glance.

They were all exhausted and knelt by Gu Yuefei's side to guard. When they saw him wake up, they all shivered collectively.

The old emperor is dead, the new emperor has not yet ascended the throne, and the foundation of the court is unstable. Gu Yuefei, the most trusted minister of the old emperor, can even be said to be half the emperor, and he is the person they are most afraid of now.

The leader of the subordinates was the one who hit Gu Yuefei, and his back was slightly lowered, and he said tremblingly: "Mr. When it was done like that, several pieces fell off at the touch of a finger.”

Gu Yuefei frowned. He didn't want to pay attention to these servants, but he couldn't stop the sound from entering his ears. He rubbed the center of his brows, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind. He immediately widened his eyes and stared straight at The servant ordered: "Go ahead."

The servant flinched back a bit, organized his words and said: "For some reason, there is a hole left on the pillar on the west side of the courtyard wall of Fengqi Palace, and the tiles on it are also loose, which must be reinforced every spring. , it was absolutely impossible for this kind of thing to happen in the past, the slave really didn't do it on purpose."

"Take me to take a look." Gu Yuefei interrupted the servant's nonsense, quickly put on his clothes, and walked out the door.

The servants were puzzled, but they also saw that Gu Yuefei had no intention of blaming them, so they calmed down a little and hurriedly chased them out again.

The harem was originally not allowed to enter the harem except for the emperor, but now the situation is special, and paying attention to these etiquette will bring great difficulties to the investigation, so I don't pay so much attention.

At this time, Empress Xie Wan was taking a nap in the palace, and when she heard the voice of servants coming from outside, her heart tightened, but thinking that they were here to repair the palace wall, she quickly calmed down, closed her eyes without showing any words, and refused to go. Pay attention to what's going on outside.

However, Gu Yuefei soon appeared at the door. Outside the big screen, he knelt down and said in a cold and deep voice: "Empress Empress, I am confused about something, so I came here to investigate the case. I hope I won't disturb you."

Xie Wan frowned, and sat up with a gloomy expression, but her voice was still steady and powerful, making it hard to hear her emotions: "Master Gu checked, I'm not in a good mood recently, don't make too much noise .”

"Naturally." Gu Yuefei replied through the screen, and went to check the pillars under the eaves.

The dark red column reveals the majesty of the palace, and there are gold-plated carvings on the upper and lower ends. Brand new outside.

Gu Yuefei stroked it lightly, then turned his head and asked, "What's going on with this place?"

The servant shook his frozen hand, and replied truthfully: "A while ago, an assassin shot an arrow at Fengqi Palace, and it happened to hit this position, leaving a gap, and the Empress asked us to fill it up."

It is common for assassins to appear in the palace. Some came to set fire and some shot arrows, so the servants were used to it, but they did not expect that the old emperor died this time.

"Arrow" Gu Yuefei murmured, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't think of any reasoning for a moment.

In the past, assassins were either spies from other countries, or people who sought power and usurped the throne. They always assassinated the emperor. Why did they shoot arrows at Fengqi Palace?
Gu Yuefei was full of doubts, and came to the gate of the palace again, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I have a few questions for you to ask."

"Wait a minute." Xie Wan had long lost sleepiness, she asked the maids to tidy up for her, then walked out from behind the screen, and sat on the delicate armchair in the front hall.

Gu Yuefei was kneeling in front of him, his messy hair was tied up casually, it seemed that he came in a hurry.

Gu Yuefei asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that there was an assassin attack a while ago, can you tell me the details of the situation?"

Xie Wan looked at her exquisite red nails, and said calmly: "I don't remember much about that day, I only heard the sound of arrows and was protected by servants, and I didn't even see the shadow of the assassin."

Gu Yuefei pondered for a while, then asked: "Did the assassin show any purpose? Or did His Majesty sleep in Fengqi Palace that day?"

"Your Majesty Gu's question is really nonsensical. Assassins entered the palace to kill people." Xie Wan looked at Gu Yuefei and said, "Your Majesty did not stay in Fengqi Palace that day, but the assassin's skills are very good. The imperial guards failed to catch him, but made him escape."

Gu Yuefei was stunned for a moment, remembering the news that there was an assassin in the palace before the old emperor passed away, he couldn't help but think a little more.

Perhaps it was the same person both times.
