Chapter 169
Because of the fire, the empress dowager and the emperor all appeared at the gate of Su Qing's palace, and it was rare for the empress to appear beside the emperor, but she had a bad complexion and said impatiently: "What's going on? It's so good, how could it be out of water? Who Is it the eunuch in charge here?"

An old eunuch who was over fifty years old plopped and knelt on the ground, tremblingly said: "The queen mother, the emperor, the empress empress, and the slave don't know what's going on."

Nanny Liu pointed at the eunuch and said, "Presumptuous, you are in charge of everything in the princess hall. You don't know now, but where did it start?"

The eunuch was in a panic. He originally thought that the new princess was a servant before and didn't need to serve her seriously, so he never cared about it. Now that he was directly questioned, he didn't know at all, and said incoherently: "Slave, the slave doesn't know, Just seeing the fire was big, the fire."

"presumptuous."

The queen mother also said with a dark face: "I will give you to the princess and let you serve her well. It's good for you. You don't know anything about it. If there is something wrong with Princess Fushou, you won't have enough heads to chop off."

The emperor asked someone to move a chair over, "Mother, please sit down, don't worry, the princess has gone to wash, the servant girl has already replied, the princess is not injured, so the queen does not need to worry."

The empress dowager and the emperor were walking on the chairs, Song Zhi was full of anxiety, but he happened to be on duty tonight, and he was always by the emperor's side, so he had no time to talk to Su Qing.

At this moment, Concubine Hu walked over mightily with a group of people.

After the emperor saw Concubine Fox, he couldn't help getting up from the chair, and hurried over, "Ai Concubine, why haven't you rested yet, can't you fall asleep?"

Concubine Fox leaned on the emperor's shoulder and said shyly, "Your majesty, this concubine cannot sleep without you."

The emperor smiled all over his face, glanced at the queen, and said in a low voice: "My dear concubine, today is the fifteenth day, the ancestors rule that you must accompany the queen, not to mention that the queen has been confined for two days, I have to express something, you can understand, yes wrong?"

Concubine Fox twisted her body as if she was about to touch the emperor, "I know, but just as I was about to fall asleep, I heard someone say that there was a flood, so I came to see, is the princess alright?"

The emperor shook his head, "It's okay, the queen mother is more worried, you go to pay her respects."

Concubine Fox followed behind the emperor, walked up to the queen mother, twisted her waist and said: "The concubine joins the queen mother."

The Queen Mother has always disliked Concubine Fox. She thought she was too beautiful, and let the emperor spoil her only. Such behavior made the Queen Mother instinctively hate her. Now that Concubine Fox is still so flattering, she doesn't even want to look at her, "Why are you here? gone?"

Concubine Hu was still saluting, and the Queen Mother didn't let her get up, so she couldn't stand up, but she didn't know how to answer for a while, so she could only look at the emperor pitifully.

The emperor supported her arm and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, Concubine Hu is weak, so don't make her work hard."

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "Your Majesty, am I not even qualified to intervene with a concubine?"

The emperor hurriedly said: "What did the queen mother say, I just said it casually, dear concubine, tell the queen mother that you are here because you care about the princess."

Concubine Hu hurriedly said: "Queen Dowager, the concubine really cares about the princess, that's why she came here."

"Hmph, Concubine Fox, what does the emperor say, what do you follow, it's just perfunctory."

The empress originally wanted to make out with the emperor tonight, but such a big incident made her more or less unhappy, especially when she saw a concubine being so favored, the woman's jealousy quickly arose, "If the concubine fox doesn't want to Come, you don't have to come."

At this moment, the guard came over with a eunuch on his back, "See the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Empress Dowager."

The leading guard pointed to the little eunuch who was struggling behind him and said: "This eunuch ran to Sixiang in the southeast corner and babbled nonsense, and the humble officer arrested him."

The little eunuch's mouth was blocked, and the queen mother frowned, "Which palace is he from?"

Su Qing happened to come out from the inside, saw the little eunuch, ouched, walked over and said: "Mother, this is from my palace, how did you get arrested?"

The little eunuch's mouth was released, he burst into tears, knelt on the ground and said: "Princess help, princess help."

The leading guard shouted: "Presumptuous, the queen mother and the emperor are here, and dare to make loud noises."

The little eunuch shut up immediately, but looked at Su Qing sobbing.

"what happened?"

Su Qing looked at the little eunuch, "Didn't I tell you to find Commander Song, where did you go? Why were you arrested?"

The little eunuch said aggrievedly: "The princess asked the servant to go to Commander Song, but the servant went there in a hurry, didn't see the direction clearly, and only saw someone standing at a corner gate from a distance, so he ran over and said that there was water in the princess hall. Who knows, they were arrested."

The little eunuch knelt on the ground, touched his tears and said, "I don't know what's going on, but when I realized it, all the people at the corner gate disappeared."

Concubine Hu's eyes were filled with hatred, but she quickly covered it up and said softly: "At this time, why is there someone at the corner gate of Sixiang? Has anyone gone to Sixiang?"

The emperor also frowned and said, "Who is patrolling tonight?"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Liang Jingrui came from one side, "The grandson has met the emperor's grandmother, and the sons have seen the father and mother."

The Empress Dowager looked at Liang Jingrui and said strangely, "Jing'er, why are you here?"

Linhua Hall is some distance away from here. According to the logic, even if there is water here, Linhua Hall will not be found there.

"It's the prince. The servant saw someone standing there. The servant thought it was Commander Song."

The little eunuch pointed at Liang Jingrui and said, "Your servant is right."

Song Zhi frowned, looked at the way the little eunuch was pointing at Liang Jingrui, and shook the saber in his hand, "You can see clearly, it's so late, it's impossible for the prince to go to Sixiang, the night is dark, you may be wrong .”

Concubine Hu looked at Song Zhi, and said with a sneer, "The little eunuch has already said it, and I read it right. My lord, you haven't rested so late in the palace. Could it be, who are you waiting for?"

Concubine Fox glanced at the calm Su Qing, and said without a trace; "I'm really surprised, the princess and the prince should not be familiar with each other, why would she make snacks for the prince herself? If I remember correctly, it seems that last night, the princess came Hua Dian came out at this time, what a coincidence."

After Concubine Hu finished speaking, she covered her mouth and coughed twice, and the scene was completely quiet.

Su Qing stared at Concubine Fox, "The meaning of Concubine Fox's words, could it be that Concubine Fox has been monitoring me, or the prince? Otherwise, how would you know where I was last night?"

Concubine Hu's face darkened, "Princess was joking, I just happened to see it."

"So many coincidences, what a coincidence."
