Chapter 69 Send the concubine to serve the late emperor!Queen Mother, have you heard my imperial decree?Those who poisoned the concubine!secret
The palace people of Qianqing Palace are still in formation, so this gave the spies an opportunity.

However, after the imperial decree was issued, everyone in the Qianqing Palace was in danger, and the spies risked being caught to pass on the news.

Jin Zhong summoned all the palace people and asked them to report to each other.

Although a bunch of trivial matters were pulled out, a few people were still locked in.

"Punishment, interrogation! Even if it's not a spy, I'm afraid it's someone else's eyeliner planted in the Qianqing Palace! It's better to kill the wrong one than let it go!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "The rest, organize immediately! Jin Zhong, Feng Xiao, Xu Gan, you can do it yourself."

Three people working together is also a check and balance.

Sitting in the Xinuang Pavilion, Zhu Qiyu closed his eyes and thought about it, and fell asleep after thinking about it.

When he opened his eyes, Feng Xiao was waiting by his side.

"What time is it?"

"Just after Shenshi." Feng Xiao carefully helped the emperor up, brought warm water and a spittoon, and rinsed the emperor's mouth.

"Did you find out?"

"Four people have been locked up and are being severely tortured. The results will be out tonight." Feng Xiao took out the soup and medicine in the food box. There was a layer of charcoal fire in the food box, which was warm. He carefully tested the temperature of the water before bringing it over. to the emperor.

After drinking the medicine, Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Get something to eat, don't make cakes, porridge is also fine."

"I'll make it myself, servant girl!" Feng Xiao's cooking must not taste good, but it must be non-toxic.

Zhu Qiyu asked someone to bring the memorial.

The person in charge of moving the memorial is Liu En, the eunuch who is the rough envoy of the Xixin Division. When Jin Zhong picked him, he was learning how to bark at the door. Because of his stuttering problem, he was often bullied. Jin Zhong picked him to come to the imperial court. serve.

He worked extraordinarily hard when rectifying Ai Chonggao, and was valued by the emperor and stayed by his side.

But the eunuch who was inseparable with him was called Dong Xiang.

Liu En dared not speak, worried that his stuttering would be rejected by the emperor.

Zhu Qiyu picked up the memorial and read it, and asked him, "Where is the home?"

"Back, back to the emperor!"

Liu En stammered nervously: "Slave, I was sold since I was a child, and sent to the palace by my godfather. I, I, don't remember where my family is! Please, please forgive me, slave, The servant girl is not talkative, not good at talking!"

The more he stuttered, the more anxious he became, and the more anxious he became, the more he stuttered, but he had to answer the emperor's question, sweating profusely from his anxiety, wishing he could slap himself on the ear.

"Don't be nervous, speak slowly, and you won't stutter."

Zhu Qiyu comforted him: "Have you still been in touch with your godfather?"

"Thank you for your grace!"

Liu En slowed down his speech, so he couldn't hear the stammer: "A few years ago, my godfather died, so I didn't contact him anymore."

"Look, won't you stop stuttering when you talk like this?"

Zhu Qiyu raised his eyes and glanced at him: "Just stay by my side and serve you. There are no big rules in Qianqing Palace, as long as you always remember that I am your master, that's enough."

"The grace of the emperor, the slaves will never forget it for the rest of their lives!"

Liu En wanted to cry, and kowtowed in gratitude.

"Dong Xiang, you are an old man by my side, take him with you." Zhu Qiyu asked them to retreat.

The memorial is a headache to read, the whole article is full of nonsense, and the efficiency is low.

Moreover, the memorials sent by the cabinet are all trivial matters, and there are few major events, as if the world is really peaceful.

What made Zhu Qiyu the most angry was that even the funds for disaster relief had to be reported, written memorials and reported, and waited for the approval of the central government, and then sent back to the place. I don’t know how many things were delayed on the way. They're all dead, and what a disaster!In the end, the money was still used, and it was used for ghosts?
This Great Ming seems to be thriving, but in fact it has begun to rot, and must be reformed.

But there are too many things that need to be changed, and there are so many things to know, I don't know where to start.

"Xuan Yang Shou Chen, Lin E, Liu Ji, Qiu Jun, Yin Zhi, Liu Jue and others have come to Qianqing Palace. I want to see them."

The cabinet disagreed with the streamlining of memorials, so it started with the Imperial Academy.

This was the first practical thing he did when he came to Daming!
"My lord, there is a message from the Empress Dowager's palace, please go over there." The newly promoted eunuch Dong Ci whispered.

Zhu Qiyu was writing furiously, without any distraction, and only responded when he finished writing.

He will not criticize the palace servants, as long as the palace servants are loyal to their affairs, he will not lose his temper over trivial matters, even if the timing of Dong Ci's remarks is bad, which affects his thinking, he is not angry.

"Jin Zhong?" Zhu Qiyu subconsciously called Jin Zhong's name.

"Going back to the emperor, Eunuch Jin is doing business outside, and the maidservant invited him over?" Dong Ci said cautiously.

Zhu Qiyu looked up at him: "What's your name?"

"The maidservant is called Dong Ci, and Eunuch Feng promoted the maidservant to serve in front of the imperial court." Dong Ci knelt on the ground.

"Get up, serving in Qianqing Palace is not a big rule, as long as you are loyal to me, I will give you what you want." Zhu Qiyu said this very straightforwardly.

"The slave's life belongs to the emperor, and the emperor will let the slave do what the slave does!" Dong Ci is very smart.

"Well, go and serve."

Zhu Qiyu put down a memorial and picked up another one.

He didn't feel tired at all. Reviewing memorials was the imperial power. During the Taizu period, he even took care of trivial matters in the capital. In addition to his amazing energy, it also showed his terrifying control over the whole country.

After reviewing for a while, the palace servants of Xian'an Palace came to remind them again.

Feng Xiao cooked the porridge, put it in a food box and brought it up, waiting for the emperor to eat.

After eating porridge, Zhu Qiyu went to Xian'an Palace.

The imperial chariot stopped at the gate of Xian'an Palace.

The people in Xian'an Palace were bustling with people, and they even set fire to cook food, Zhu Qiyu's eyes darkened, and he shouted coldly: "Qing Palace!"

"The emperor?" Dong Ci looked at the emperor cautiously.

"Go do it!"

Zhu Qiyu asked the imperial chariot to stop, and Dong Ci gritted his teeth to clean up the idlers in Xian'an Palace.

"Who gave you the courage to come to Xian'an Palace to make trouble?"

Lian Zhong was being served by seven or eight eunuchs, and he came out yelling and hugging: "Come on, hold him down and beat him! Dare to act wild in Xian'an Palace, and don't take a piss to take care of yourself, what the hell is that! "

The little eunuch rushed forward and held Dong Ci down, and immediately took off his clothes and started beating him.

Dong Ci didn't beg for mercy, but gritted his teeth and endured.

"Eunuch Lian, what a majesty!" But at this moment, a cold voice sounded.

Lian Zhong opened his mouth and was about to curse, raised his head but trembled suddenly, knelt down on the ground with a thud, Hun'er was about to lose his fright: "My lord! My lord is merciful! Slave, slave..."

He didn't know how to explain it, so he slapped himself twice, and then kept kowtowing for mercy.

But I scolded Dong Ci in my heart, you said that you were sent by the emperor, how did our family know which eunuch you were serving in the palace?Damn Dong Ci, you killed our family!

"Lian Zhong, Lian Zhong, I really misjudged, I have always been an honest person for you, I never thought that you are more powerful than me?"

"I don't know, I thought you were the master of this palace!"

"Look at this posture, there are more people than me!"

"What? Do you want to bully the master?"

Zhu Qiyu's tone was cold: "Come here, hit him!"

"I want to see if you, a slave, can go to heaven!"

"beat!"

Zhu Qiyu was very angry. Xian'an Palace took the lead in disobeying the imperial decree issued by me. Is this slapping me in the face?
Even a servant dares to trample on my imperial decree!

The old slave deceived the master?I will lend you 1 guts!

"My lord, please forgive my life. This servant knows my mistake, this servant knows my mistake. This servant is deceived by lard. Taking advantage of the power of my lord and empress dowager, I don't dare anymore. I beg my lord to show mercy!"

Lian Zhong cried and begged for mercy, kowtowing like garlic.

Liu En kicked him over and pressed him directly.He doesn't know who is not connected, he is just the emperor's loyal dog.

"beat!"

The serving eunuch Wynn brought a chair, and Zhu Qiyu sat upright, with cold eyes.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
The wooden stick fell on Lian Zhong's body, and Lian Zhong screamed incessantly.

The eunuch of Xian'an Palace knelt on the ground in horror, not daring to move.

Dong Ci put on his pants, crawled over and knelt on the ground, gritted his teeth but didn't cry.

"I've made you feel wronged." Zhu Qiyu glanced at him, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes, he was a sensible person.

"The servant is not wronged, it was the emperor who saved the servant, and the servant is so grateful!" Dong Ci kowtowed his head and thanked him.

Dong Ci didn't know the rules, if Xu Gan went to the Qing Palace instead, he would definitely not be as reckless as him. Instead, he would discuss with Lian Zhong first and listen to Lian Zhong's opinions, at least he wouldn't get stuck with Lian Zhong.

However, Zhu Qiyu likes unruly eunuchs.

"You execute the sentence yourself, beat him!" Zhu Qiyu stared at Lian Zhong coldly.

This Lian Zhong has made mistakes twice in a row. The last time he delayed Shu Liang's search for the treasure in the library, he made an exception, and he still doesn't know how to repent!Take a handful and fill it up, do you really think I won't punish you?

"Lian Zhong, do you disagree?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"I don't dare, I don't dare." Lian Zhong replied weeping.

"It seems that there is resentment in my heart, let's fight!"

Zhu Qiyu said coldly: "Lian Zhong, this is the second time you have made a mistake. The last time you delayed Shu Liang's search for the hidden treasure in the library, I gave you a little extra, neither dealt with you nor investigated you. That's what I did to you. trust! But you don’t take it seriously!”

"This time you pretended to be a tiger, beat my people, blocked the Qing Palace, and I only beat you twenty sticks! Let you have a long memory!"

"There will be another time, just stick to death! There is no need to discuss!"

"Lian Zhong, don't blame me for not reminding you, my patience has a limit!"

Zhu Qiyu spoke earnestly, just because Lian Zhong was an old man, he didn't want to do things to the extreme, the rabbit died and the fox was sad, and made others feel cold.

"Slaves don't dare anymore!" Lian Zhong screamed, tears pouring down like rain.

"Stop crying, act like a girl, I let people clear the palace, why did you stop me?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.

Lian Zhong's expression was innocent, and his words were also very innocent: "These are the people who serve in Xian'an Palace, Ruoqing Palace, who will serve the Empress Dowager?"

"I don't have so many people around me to serve me!"

"Does the Queen Mother need so many people to serve her?"

"Didn't you receive my imperial decree? Play stupid! Another ten sticks!"

Zhu Qiyu was furious: "Qing Gong!"

"I see who dares to stop! Those who stop will be killed without mercy!"

Lian Zhong couldn't stop crying, Dong Ci was really ruthless and merciless.

The movement outside alarmed Empress Dowager Wu.

The palace people surrounded the Empress Dowager Wu and came out. When they saw Zhu Qiyu beating her palace people, they were angry at first, and then put on a happy smile, deliberately not mentioning this: "Emperor, come quickly into the palace of the queen mother, the queen asked someone to do it!" Chestnut cake, it will be ready soon."

Zhu Qiyu reluctantly stood up and saluted, and then asked her: "Queen Mother, have you received my imperial decree?"

Empress Dowager Wu was shocked. The emperor didn't call her mother, but called her queen mother, and called himself Zhen. This was to turn against her.

"Emperor, this..."

"Answer my question!" Zhu Qiyu didn't save Empress Dowager Wu any face.

Twice, the problem was in Xian'an Palace!
This is the result of his pampering Queen Mother Wu!

He recognized Empress Dowager Wu's mother to fulfill the love between mother and child, not to make her stir up trouble!

Now that Wala is knocking on the side, and the court is like fire, it is impossible for Zhu Qiyu to spend time in the inner palace.

So he wanted to clean up the palaces, leaving countless palace people in each palace, and turning the palace into an iron bucket, so that no word could get out.

In this way, he can devote all his energy to the court.

But it happened that the trouble was with his closest relatives!
Is this love?

The smile on Empress Dowager Wu's face froze: "Ai, Aijia..."

Stared at by Zhu Qiyusen's cold eyes, Empress Dowager Wu swallowed in horror: "The Ai family received it."

"Then why not?" Zhu Qiyu slowly sat on the chair, staring at her with burning eyes.

"Yes Yes……"

Empress Dowager Wu couldn't say anything, wanted to speak soft words but couldn't, she was the emperor's biological mother, why should she listen to the emperor's imperial decree?
Originally, matters between mother and child were easy to talk and discuss. Why did you slap her, the Queen Mother, in the face in front of all the palace people?

What is the emperor going to do?Don't want mother and child. Are you separated?

She was also angry, and said directly: "The emperor sent out all the palace people, who will serve Ai's family? There are not many people in Xian'an Palace, and Ai's family is used to it. Why should the emperor send it out? Ai Everyone disagrees!"

"Is the queen mother disobedient to my imperial decree?"

Zhu Qiyu suddenly yelled: "Okay! Has someone entered into the slander? Dividing the relationship between my mother and your child? Is it him?"

He pointed at someone at random.

"Xu Gan, kill him!"

Xu Gan took the knife from the guard and walked towards the eunuch.

With a slash of the knife, blood was seen instantly!

"Ah?" Empress Dowager Wu exclaimed.

She saw someone lying in a pool of blood with her own eyes, although she had seen this scene before, but, but it had been 30 years, she, she did not dare to think of that scene...

"Is it her?" Zhu Qiyu pointed to another court lady.

"kill!"

puff!
A maid's head flew into the sky, with surprise and puzzlement on her face.

The maid's head rolled to the Empress Dowager Wu's feet, she was so frightened that she took a few steps back, becoming more and more frightened.

"Queen! I'm asking you, didn't you hear my imperial decree?" Zhu Qiyu's tone became more serious.

"listen……"

puff!
Before the Empress Dowager Wu finished speaking, Zhu Qiyu pointed at another person, Xu Gan raised his knife and dropped it, and another person fell into a pool of blood. He was not dead yet, and his eyes were fixed on her, full of resentment and unwillingness.

Killed again, killed again!
Empress Dowager Wu was trembling all over, looking at the emperor stupidly.

But at this time, the emperor's finger pointed to her confidant, Qin Shangfu, was the female officer of the Shangfu Bureau, and she relied on her in the palace.

"The Ai family knew it was wrong! The Ai family knew it was wrong!" Empress Dowager Wu was terrified.

What frightened her the most was that the emperor was referring to her next!
The emperor in front of him seemed to have become the person he used to be. He had no feelings and didn't recognize her as his mother...

She forgot, and she got carried away again!

"What is the queen mother's name?" Zhu Qiyu still refused to let her go.

"Emperor, no, Your Majesty!"

Empress Dowager Wu was shaking all over, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

She didn't dare to imagine anymore, the queen mother's imperial edict was higher than the emperor's imperial edict, she dared not imagine anymore!
"Queen Mother, I am the master of the world, and no one can violate my imperial decree, including you!" Zhu Qiyu said coldly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Empress Dowager Wu sat on the ground limply, lost in thought.

"The queen mother is tired, help the queen mother back to the palace, and send out the others. After being screened, they will return to Xian'an Palace to serve the queen mother!"

Zhu Qiyu's tone was not kind: "Wu An, the uncle of Changshan, did nothing to the country. He repeatedly slandered the queen mother and separated the family of Tian. I hate it. I deprived him of the title, took back the world certificate, dismissed all the positions, and relegated the whole family to Yunnan. He can't go back without an edict. Beijing."

Suddenly!

Empress Dowager Wu trembled all over, Wu An is her own younger brother!It's the emperor's uncle!

The emperor cut her face, but actually deprived her uncle of everything. Does he want to be a loner?

But what did she dare to say?
If she turned around and said one more word, the emperor would turn Xian'an Palace into a cold palace!She believed it!
Is the emperor still her son?
Zhu Qiyu's expression remained unchanged, and he sighed inwardly.

Originally, he intended to ease the relationship with his biological mother and maintain the family relationship.However, she is so stupid that she is being used everywhere.

Really getting close to her, on the contrary, fueled her arrogance, which was very unfavorable to the court situation, and even worse to her.

If something unexpected happened, today's incident might save her life.

I hope she can understand my good intentions.

If we get through the difficulties, I will ask her again, there is no overnight feud between mother and child.

But Wu An can't stay anymore, this uncle will definitely become Chen Xun's target to attack him, his ass is really dirty, he must be relegated.

He will become invulnerable only after relegating his relatives.

Tang Xing, Hang Yu, and Wu An, not only couldn't help him, but also did bad things everywhere. They had to recruit more concubines and support useful relatives.

"Which palace hasn't been cleaned up?" Zhu Qiyu asked Xu Gan.

"Several concubines and empresses do not agree with the slaves cleaning the palace." Xu Gan whispered.

Is the toffee still alive?

Zhu Qiyu remembered that after the death of the first emperor, more than a dozen concubines were buried, and there were still concubines in the palace?

"Go back to the emperor, there are a few more." Xu Gan said a few names.

Zhu Qiyu didn't have any impression, because he was admitted to the palace when the late emperor passed away, so naturally he didn't know how many concubines the late emperor had in the palace, after he ascended the throne, he didn't bother to manage the harem, it's strange to know.

"Hmph, the late emperor passed away many years ago, why are they still alive? Why don't they go underground to serve the late emperor?"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes darkened: "The first emperor waited for them for too long, if he waited any longer, he would call me unfilial in a dream, please the concubines to serve the first emperor."

Xu Gan was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "Yes, yes, the concubines feel that they are living in the world, ashamed of the late emperor, and restless in their hearts. They have already passed the rest of their lives and went to serve the late emperor!"

Zhu Qiyu cast a cold glance at Qi Jilang, who sensiblely tore up the record, and Xu Gan swallowed it into his stomach.

"Those palace servants who served them were loyal and courageous, and followed the concubine to the death. Let's set up a monument for them." Zhu Qiyu's expression was light.

"Slave obeys the order!" Xu Gan knelt down.

At this time, Lian Zhong, who was lying on the ground, suddenly said: "My lord, the empress dowager is pure-hearted, and she was instigated by that person from Yongshou Palace. However, I don’t want to send away the palace guards!”

"Eternal Life Palace? The Empress Dowager is still restless!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes darkened, and he looked at Xu Gan: "Xu Gan, let's do it together! Those who haven't left the palace before dark, kill them!"

"Slave obeys the order!" Xu Gan had a wicked smile on his face.

Zhu Qiyu's eyes fell on Lian Zhong: "You don't have a third chance, cherish it."

"The servant will follow the emperor's instructions, there will never be a third time!" Lian Zhong got up and kowtowed.

Returning to Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu suddenly slapped his head, forgetting why Empress Dowager Wu asked him to go.After making such a fuss, when you go back, you will have a hot face and a cold butt.

"Dong Ci, can I still go? Go see Wang Cheng on my behalf... Forget it, I will go in person in the evening." Zhu Qiyu was also thinking about Wang Cheng's injury, but he really couldn't get away.

"Remember it for me." Zhu Qiyu said to Dong Ci.

"The slaves obey the orders!"

When the imperial chariot entered the Qianqing Palace, Zhang Yong waited at the door. When he saw the imperial chariot, he bowed down.

"Back?" Zhu Qiyu said lightly.

"The servant girl did something wrong, please forgive me!" Zhang Yong knew that what happened in the court was all caused by his confession.

"It's okay."

Zhu Qiyu walked into Xinuang Pavilion, seeing that Zhang Yong hadn't followed: "Get up, come in, it's cold outside."

"Thank you Huang Ye Long En!" Zhang Yong kowtowed before standing up, and walked in with his waist bent.

"What's the situation with that Zhang Bin?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"The servants arrested all the ambassadors and deputy envoys of the Armament Bureau and tortured them severely. Zhang Bin didn't confess at first, but for some reason, Zhang Bin suddenly confessed. The servants thought it was a trick of the servants, which made him afraid. Now I only found out earlier that the slaves have been tricked!" Zhang Yong answered truthfully.

"What about Zhang Bin?"

"After the confession, I couldn't stand the sentence and died." Zhang Yong smiled wryly.

"Did he die because he couldn't survive the sentence, or was he murdered? Have you checked who has been in contact with Zhang Bin recently?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"Found it, it's from Jinyiwei, and the servants also interrogated him. He passed the news to Zhang Bin, but he just took money to do things, and the clues were cut off." Zhang Yong hesitated to speak.

"tell me your opinion."

"The servant guesses that Zhang Bin belongs to Wang Xi."

Zhang Yongdao: "The servant received the imperial decree to arrest Wang Xi, and Wang Xi disappeared. The servant arrested Menda and Liu Jing's people, tortured them severely, and bit out many people, including Wang Xi's henchmen. The servant also took the opportunity to pick him up. He took over a part of Jinyiwei."

"However, some innocent people were bitten out by these sinners. They knew they were going to die, so they grabbed and bit at will, making the servants very big."

"The slaves followed the clues and dug deeply, but they still couldn't find Wang Xi."

"This Wang Xi has been operating in Jinyiwei for more than ten years, and his roots are deeply rooted. After he disappeared, his people were completely hidden, and the servants were helpless."

"That's why the servant guesses that Zhang Bin belongs to Wang Xi."

Zhu Qiyu frowned.

This Wang Xi is really powerful. During the orthodox years, he bought Ai Chonggao and poisoned my medicine.

Now he manipulated the eyeliner of Qianqing Palace to save Zhang Fu's life.

When he was found, he died strangely.

What a great man full of dedication.

Zhu Qiyu vaguely guessed that Wang Xi and Zhang Fu were related.

"When the trial comes out, you will know."

Zhu Qiyu poked at the corner of his eyebrows, the most difficult thing now is not to analyze who Wang Xi is, but to dig out who Wang Xi buried in Jinyiwei.

"Send Jin Zhong an oral order, let him drive out all the suspects from Jinyiwei, as long as they have doubts, drive them out! Menda and Liu Jing's accomplices should not be interrogated, they will only bite more and more, they should be killed Kill, exile who should be exiled, cut the mess quickly! This matter will come to an end, let him quickly take control of Jinyiwei!"

Zhu Qiyu stood up and paced back and forth, his eyes flickering: "Zhang Yong, I have no choice but to use you as the admiral to supervise the inspector of ceremonies."

Zhang Yong trembled all over, and knelt on the ground: "The emperor let the servants die, and the servants have nothing to say, let alone the inner face of an extremely human minister? Thank you, the emperor, for giving the servants this opportunity to ascend to the sky!"

He said it lightly, but in fact he knew better that the Supervisor of Rituals was a fire pit, and it was easy to burn himself to death by jumping into it.

Zhu Qiyu patted him on the shoulder and helped him up: "After entering the Prison of Rituals, do more, watch more and talk less, and bear with being wronged."

"Although you are a palm print eunuch, you may not be able to have the final say."

"When necessary, I allow you to be patient and retreat. Saving your life is the most important thing."

"Whoever owes you, I will help you get it back sooner or later!"

"Zhang Yong, I owe you."

Zhang Yong wanted to kneel down again to show his loyalty, but Zhu Qiyu pulled him and repeatedly asked him to leave.

"Call Cao Jixiang to come." Zhu Qiyu took a sip of water.

Soon, Cao Jixiang came in and knelt down to salute.

Let him analyze and analyze.

"If you go back to the emperor, that Wang Xi must be Zhang Fu's man! Don't underestimate this Zhang Fu, he is very scheming, and he is the schemer of the Supreme Emperor!"

Cao Jixiang was good at seizing opportunities, and by virtue of his knowledge and strategy, he was once again appreciated by the emperor.

"Then tell me, why did he attack me in court?"

Zhu Qiyu seemed to be testing him. In fact, he thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think it through. After all, he was the emperor, so he had to lose face.

"Slaves dare not speculate on Tianxin."

Cao Jixiang flattered him: "This servant thinks that this is a retreat. The scandal between him and Princess Changde has been exposed, and I am worried that the emperor will do something to him. So retreat and leave Beijing as soon as possible."

"Leaving Beijing?" Zhu Qiyu was taken aback for a moment, and was tricked again?

He kicked Zhang Fu out of Beijing, right in his arms?

"My lord, the sooner he leaves Beijing, the better for you."

"The Duke of England is a giant in the noble family, and his influence in the capital is unparalleled. However, Zhang Zhong, the eldest son of King Xingding County, has a disability, and Zhang Mao, the concubine, is also known as unrighteous. In fact, the real decision of the Duke of England is Zhang Fu."

Cao Jixiang took a peek at the emperor's expression, and said: "Zhang Fu's plan is to worry about Princess Changde's scandal, which will affect himself; Xungui may be involved!"

"So, Zhang Fu left Beijing one step earlier, stayed away from the vortex, and protected himself."

Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank.

That's right, Chen Xun was too calm this morning, like the calm before the storm.

And Zhang Fu, like a bird that sensed the change in the sky, went out of Beijing to hide.

What a smart man!
But Cao Jixiang still hesitated to speak.

"Speak out." Zhu Qiyu really wanted to hear his truth.

"The servant thinks that Zhang Fu's haste to leave the capital has a deeper meaning. He may have done a major event to punish the nine clans, so he used these things to block the emperor's sight..." Cao Jixiang dared not speak.

Silver in the inner carrier!
Even the matter of providing artillery to the Supreme Emperor for rebellion, he dared to talk about it, but this matter is a major and special case that is bigger and more touching than the rebellion!
"Decree to Lu Zhong, after forming Tiqi, go to check the silver in the carrier warehouse, start with Zhang Fu!"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at Cao Jixiang, and it was right to keep him.

It would be great if Xing'an didn't commit suicide.

It's a pity that such a smart person is not used by me.

"My lord, the result of the trial is out!" Feng Xiao hurried in.

"Your servant will leave." Cao Jixiang kowtowed and left.

"Listen to it."

Hearing this, Cao Jixiang was elated, and the day when he won the emperor's favor again was just around the corner.

As someone who participated in the rebellion, he seemed to be the only one who was still alive, and he really shuddered to think of the horror of those people who died.

At the same time, he also knew that the emperor kept him because he wanted him to bite the emperor.

There is nothing wrong with using Hanji to bite Hanji.

Feng Xiao glanced at him, his face full of dissatisfaction, but Cao Jixiang didn't dare to be presumptuous, after all Feng Xiao was a celebrity in front of the emperor, when he should bend down, he had to bend down.

"The eunuch who delivered the news was the eunuch named Pan Zhan, who used to support the emperor's canopy. In the past two years, he has been serving in the Qianqing Palace after taking off his errands."

Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank slightly: "This Pan Zhan, I have the impression that he also followed me the day he seized the door, right?"

"The emperor has a good memory. When the emperor killed Zhu Huan, he fainted from fright. Fortunately, he didn't continue to follow the emperor, otherwise it would be unthinkable."

Sure enough, there is still anti-faking loyalty in this palace, and a system of consecutive sittings must be implemented to implement it to the end.

In the future, it will not only be done in the Qing Palace, but also in the entire inner palace!

"How did he say?"

"Pan Zhan made a confession. He was the one who informed Wang Xi. Every move you made in Qianqing Palace was also reported by him."

It's Wang Xi again, what supernatural power does he have to bribe the eunuch beside me?
It seems that Wang Xi is dead, and everything is planted on Wang Xi's head, so I can't find out.

Pfft!
Feng Xiao suddenly knelt on the ground: "There are still disrespectful words, slaves dare not say them!"

"Say!" Zhu Qiyu's face darkened.

"About Xian, Concubine Xian..."

Suddenly, Zhu Qiyu stood up: "Drag him in! I will ask him personally!"

Concubine Xian's death has something to do with Pan Zhan?
Cao Jixiang was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, Feng Xiao lay prone, not daring to raise his head.

Soon, Pan Zhan, who had been tortured until he looked bad, was dragged in.

He can still breathe.

"Pan Zhan, is it the concubine you poisoned?" Zhu Qiyu's voice was as cold as ice, and the concubine was a thorn in his heart.

What really frightened him was that in this harem, someone could kill the emperor and concubines at will, which made him extremely uneasy.

"Go back to the emperor, I'm not a slave, I'm not a slave, give this slave a treat..." Pan Zhan couldn't even kneel down, his whole body was bloody, every piece of meat was ready.

"Tell me the truth!"

"Yes, it's Qin Shangfu..."

Suddenly, Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank!
Qin Shangfu?
She is the maid serving by Empress Dowager Wu, why did she poison Concubine Xian?
"Why do you know?" Zhu Qiyu stared at him.

"The servants are not only doing things for Wang Xi, but they are also doing things for other people..."

It turned out to be a double spy!
"Go pass on Qin Shangfu!"

Just now Zhu Qiyu almost killed her by mistake, but fortunately he didn't. It turns out that the real culprit who poisoned Concubine Xian has something to do with her!
"Why did Qin Shangfu kill Concubine Xian?"

"Your servant doesn't know either, your servant is only selling information, and I don't know anything else!" Pan Zhan cried.

As such, he wasn't a spy, just an information broker.

"How much information have you resold?" Zhu Qiyu sat back on the soft bed.

"Not a few times..."

"Tell the truth!" Zhu Qiyu was furious.

"One hundred, how much? Two hundred... I can't remember the servant!" Pan Zhan cried bitterly.

Zhu Qiyu became angry immediately: "How can I be sorry for you? You reselling the news to harm me? Do you know that it is a crime to harm the emperor?"

"I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong, I'm just reselling news, I didn't expect so much! I'm just greedy for money, I'm just greedy for money..." Pan Zhan cried.

"An inadvertent mistake is even more sinful!"

Zhu Qiyu's gaze was like a knife: "Drag out, Ling Chi! Everyone related to him will be beheaded! No one will be left behind!"

"I'll do it now, servant girl!" Feng Xiao got up and swallowed his saliva in horror.

Killing another round, Qianqing Palace doesn't know how many will be left.

Originally thought that the eunuchs of Qianqing Palace should be trustworthy if they went to life and death with him, but it turned out that there were four other people including Pan Zhan.

Will there be another one later?
Zhu Qiyu is a bit of a demon killer.

When the palace servants withdrew, he sat slumped on the cushion and sighed: "There must be a son, without a son, this situation will never be eradicated."

"Anyone who is loyal to me now may rebel, because I have no sons, and their power cannot continue."

"But it's different when you have sons. You can guarantee their prosperity and wealth for generations, and you won't have so many sons and daughters."

"This damn body, when will it be recuperated!"

Zhu Qiyu was anxious.

At this time, Qin Shangfu was brought in.

She was the maid personally selected by the late emperor when their mother and son entered the palace, so Empress Dowager Wu has always been her confidant and has never doubted her.

"Do you know why I called you here?" Zhu Qiyu's voice was low.

"The servant knows!"

Qin Shangfu's face was calm: "I'm afraid the emperor has found out that it was the medicine prescribed by the maidservant to the concubine Xian, so come and ask the maidservant."

"You are honest, tell me, why did you kill Concubine Xian?"

"what?"

Qin Shangfu was taken aback, and knelt on the ground directly: "My lord, this servant has never harmed the concubine Xian!"

"The servant admitted that it was the black incense that the servant secretly prescribed to the concubine Xian. Because the concubine Xian was in unbearable pain, she increased the dose of black incense several times."

"But I have never harmed the concubine Xian!"

"You can ask Dai Han, Dai Han knows that the servants are prescribing medicines for the concubine Xian, and the emperor, the servants belong to the empress dowager, they belong to you, how could they frame the concubine Xian?"

"Still arguing? Where's Pan Zhan? Let them confront each other!" Zhu Qiyu didn't believe her nonsense.

Qin Shangfu was not afraid at all: "The servants are not afraid of confronting anyone, but please ask the emperor to coax the queen mother. After returning to the palace, the queen mother has been crying, please take care of the mother and child..."

"Enough! Talk about your business!"

Zhu Qiyu was furious: "Do you think you did it brilliantly? You forced out the poison of Wuxiang and caused the concubine Xian to die tragically, so I can't see it?"

"You are not afraid of confronting Pan Zhan, and you rely on the Queen Mother's power, so you are not afraid of me?"

"Okay! I won't torture you either. I remember that there is still an old mother living outside your palace. I have done my best to you all these years, and I have given you many treasures to keep your family prosperous! Now that you have betrayed me, I will take it back and reward your family." s things!"

"Come on! Go and raid Qin Shangfu's house and arrest her family!"

"Bring it into the palace and let her kill it with her own hands!"

"Ah?" Qin Shangfu exclaimed.

She knelt on the ground and shouted: "My lord, you are a wise king, how can you kill people at will? You can't prove that your servant murdered the concubine Xian, but you threatened your servant with his family, are you forcing your servant to admit it? Your lord, this servant refuses to accept it! "

"Smart words! Whether you are convinced or not, what does it matter to me? I am the emperor, do I need to give evidence to your servant?"

Zhu Qiyu really has nothing to do with Qin Shangfu.

She is a female official in the Empress Dowager's Palace and was appointed by the late Emperor, so she should not be a spy, but she is the biggest suspect in poisoning Concubine Xian.

She did it neatly, but Zhu Qiyu played a rogue.

"Go do it!" Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to talk nonsense.

Qin Shang was so convinced that she was trembling all over. Just now when the emperor started killing people in Xian'an Palace, she knew that she couldn't hide her affairs.

I wanted to go back to the palace and commit suicide, but I didn't want to go back to the palace. The queen mother kept crying and scolding the emperor. She was consoling her when she was sent to the Xinuang Pavilion, and she knew it was over.

"My lord, let the servants die, can you?"

Qin Shangfu nodded the ground with his forehead: "For the sake of serving the Queen Mother for many years, I will reward you with a whole body, my lord, I beg you!"

Looking at her, Zhu Qiyu sighed:
"Qin Shangfu, you have taken care of my mother and son for many years, I trust you, and I don't want to bring things to this point."

"The death of Concubine Xian has become a thorn in my heart."

"If I don't pull out this thorn, I won't be at ease."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "Qin Shangfu, if you tell me the truth, I don't have to punish you, or I can just expose it, as if it never happened again."

"I know very well that Concubine Xian's body won't last long, and I just want the truth."

"Speak out, I don't blame you."

Qin Shangfu hesitated to speak, but closed his eyes tightly, kowtowed and did not speak.

"Qin Shangfu, you are the maid who served the late emperor, right?"

"I still remember that when I entered the palace for the first time, you led me and the Queen Mother into the Qianqing Palace."

"In recent years, you have worked diligently and advised the Empress Dowager countless times. You did not let the Empress Dowager make a big mistake. This is all due to you, and I know it well."

"Pan Zhan bit it out. My first thought was not to believe it, because you won't kill Concubine Xian."

"Now that you don't talk about it, I know it. This matter has something to do with the Queen Mother, right?"

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and told everyone to leave.

He was sitting on the soft bed, holding the sword in his hand, far away from Qin Shangfu.

"Go ahead."

"I beg the emperor to grant death to my servant." Qin Shangfu still refused to say.

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "Tell me, what secret does the concubine Xian know that the queen mother sent you to do it? The queen mother is worried that I will go to see the concubine Xian, did the concubine tell me?"

"My lord, don't force your slaves!"

Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu slapped the table hard: "I have a good agreement with you, you'd better take advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, don't force me to use other means to order your whole family into the palace and let you be killed! I'm not kidding you! Qin Shangfu!"

"Concubine Xian overheard the Queen Mother's secret!"

Qin Shangfu was full of despair, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "The night when you were seriously ill, the concubine Xian was in unbearable pain, so she sent someone to tell the servant, and the servant sent her black incense over there."

"After taking it, her pain was relieved and her body felt comfortable."

"She thought it was the empress dowager who was merciful to her when the slaves made black incense for her."

"So she insisted on thanking the Empress Dowager herself, but the slaves couldn't resist her, so they accompanied her back to Xian'an Palace."

"It just so happened that the Empress Dowager sent Xu Bin to invite the Empress Dowager to sit in Renshou Palace!"

"Of course the empress dowager doesn't want to go. You are very clear about her relationship with the empress dowager."

"But Xu Bin forced the empress dowager, and even threatened the empress."

"It just so happens that Concubine Xian is also in Xian'an Palace."

"So, Concubine Xian heard the secret!"

Zhu Qiyu was taken aback for a moment, he had never figured it out, why did Empress Dowager Wu appear in Renshou Palace that night?
After so many years, the Queen Mother Wu, who has always been rebellious, why is she so afraid of Queen Mother Sun?
What is she afraid of?

Obviously it has something to do with this secret!

Concubine Xian was killed because of this secret!
Although the son can't know about his mother's past, Zhu Qiyu has a strong curiosity about what is the secret that allows Empress Dowager Sun to control Empress Dowager Wu for half her life!

Even, because of this secret, the queen mother was forced to marry her daughter-in-law!
