Chapter 341 Entering the palace for questioning

Mrs. Cao couldn't sleep, so she sat on the bed curtain and waited.

After a while, Yin Ling came back and said: "Princess, the second door said that Nanny Chen was not seen coming back. Could it be that when she came back, the door of the house was already locked, so she went home ?”

Ms. Cao wanted to comfort herself by saying that the maid was right, but she knew that as Aunt Chen was her personal nanny, the people at the main gate and the second gate would not stop her from entering.

But if it's too late, it's not necessarily possible that Grandma Chen will go home and sleep.

This uneasy feeling kept Cao restless all night, tossing and turning, and finally fell asleep in the early morning.

Unfortunately, not long after he fell asleep, he was woken up by the silver bell.

"Princess, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are here to pay their respects."

Ms. Cao suddenly sat up and was stunned for a moment before she regained consciousness and asked, "Is Grandma Chen back?"

Yin Ling shook her head and said: "It's only three quarters past three o'clock. It's rare for Grandma Chen to go home. I'm afraid she will have to come over at three o'clock at the earliest."

Ms. Cao was a little dissatisfied, but she still got up.

By the time I finished washing and dressing up, it was almost midnight, but Grandma Chen still hadn't come.

Cao could only go slowly to see Lin Xiao and Yang Mu.

Lin Mao got up early and went to court. His children were getting married, and the wedding leave was only three days.

Mrs. Cao entered the hall and found that her children were all there, but Lin Xiao and Yang Mu, who had disturbed her dream, were not there. She couldn't help suppressing her anger and said: "Where is the prince and the princess?"

Originally, they should have come to pay their respects after returning home last night, but these two people went directly back to Chengqiyuan after returning home.

I woke myself up early this morning, she came out, but the two of them left.

Mrs. Bao stood there with a walking stick and said: "Princess Qi, yesterday the Crown Princess handed the palace a note. Gong Li replied that the time of entering the palace was Chen hour. The Crown Prince went to send the Crown Princess into the palace to meet the Empress Dowager. ”

Cao choked.

Although she is the princess of Dingwang Palace, because her family background is too low and she is not liked by the Empress Dowager, she can enter the palace only a limited number of times throughout the year.

However, Yang Mu, the daughter-in-law, not only outranked her in terms of grade, but also had many more opportunities to enter the palace than her.

Mrs. Bao continued: "The prince and his concubine came to greet the princess early in the morning, but she didn't get up. The affairs in the palace cannot be delayed, so I ask the princess for your forgiveness."

Mrs. Cao's gloomy expression improved a little. Facing this former fifth-grade female official, she couldn't stand up even though she had a superior status, because she had the badge to enter the palace at any time.

"That's all, let's come to Yong'an Courtyard after the Crown Princess comes back."

What more can she say?
Mrs. Bao happily said goodbye and left, her steps brisk.

Lin Qiuchen was fined and grounded. Lin Shan and Lin Ji paid their respects to Cao and then left.

Looking at the cold hall, Mr. Cao looked very unhappy.

"Yin Ling, go to Grandma Chen's house to find her and ask her to come in quickly!"

Yin Ling hurriedly answered the call, but Cao was still uneasy.

Mrs. Cao asked her maid to bring several shopkeepers who were married to her, saying they wanted to do an accounting.

But she met the shopkeepers one by one. After leaving the palace, these shopkeepers returned to their shops.

One of the wine shop owners returned to the shop, changed his clothes, left the shop again, and went to Shunwei Escort Agency.

When he arrived at the escort office, he saw that the escort office was in a mess. Hearing that he was here to see the head of the family, they all told him to come back another day and that if he asked further questions, he would not be able to find out anything.

The wine shop owner had no choice but to take action in person and went to a medical clinic in the west of the city.

The doctor at this medical clinic is the best doctor in the capital for treating eye diseases. If it is according to what the princess said, if that person has eye diseases, he will definitely come back to see this doctor.To find out where the person the princess is looking for is, this doctor is the best breakthrough.

The shopkeeper went in, found the doctor, invited the doctor to see him, and got into his carriage.

When the carriage reached a remote place, the shopkeeper was about to knock out the doctor with a knife, but he was shot in the neck by a concealed weapon, and he immediately lost his breath.

The doctor screamed in fright, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and the previous carriage driver had been replaced.

Mu Chen stopped the carriage, went in and threw the shopkeeper's body out of the carriage, and then said to the doctor: "Don't worry, doctor, you will be safe."

The doctor was scared to death, but he also knew that he was probably trapped in something.

Fortunately, I have superb medical skills and will not be silenced by the other party, otherwise my life will be really worrying.

Mu Chen turned the carriage around and sent the doctor back.

The doctor trembled and got out of the carriage, but saw that the young man who had driven the carriage had disappeared.

With such a bloodless approach, the doctor knew that there were some things that needed to be kept in his stomach without being comforted.

Here Yang Mu and Lin Xiao entered the palace.

Concubine Shu Yang Yizheng and Li You were sitting in the Queen Mother's bedroom. After they entered the door, they bowed and the Queen Mother gave them a seat.

Concubine Shu looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "They are indeed a perfect couple. They are a perfect match for each other."

The Queen Mother teased Li You for a while, then turned to the two of them and said, "Why do you think of entering the palace?"

Yesterday afternoon, I suddenly received a message from Yang Mu requesting an attack. The Empress Dowager guessed that it was probably for Li You.

Yang Mu looked around and saw that the old woman beside the Queen Mother retreated with the maids and eunuchs.

Only the masters were left in the house.

Yang Mu then told the Empress Dowager and Yang Yi what Yang Chengen said when he returned home yesterday.

Yang Yi was unsure whether to go to the palace, so she raised her head to ask the Queen Mother for her opinion.

The Queen Mother glanced at Lin Xiao and asked, "What does your father mean?"

Lin Xiao had already discussed it with Lin Xiao yesterday. When asked about this matter, he said truthfully: "My father means that we can first see the situation."

Compared to the son of the Prince Regent or the son of Prince Huan, it was natural that Li You would be better for the Lin family. After all, the Empress Dowager, as Lin Xiao's aunt, had always protected Concubine Shu, mother and son.

The Empress Dowager pondered slightly and said: "It's really unclear at this time. I'm afraid the two empress dowagers also have their own thoughts."

When she said these words, she almost confirmed that the little emperor's time was running out.

Yang Mu and Lin Xiao looked at each other, and Lin Xiao asked, "Aunt, I heard that Prince Huan's Mansion has transferred soldiers from outside the city to protect the Prince's Mansion."

There are [-] soldiers in the palace of the royal family and princes. But in the peaceful and prosperous times, they are generally not kept in the palace. Most of them are kept in other courtyards outside the city.

However, these palace soldiers can be said to be the personal soldiers of the palace recognized by the court. When they are transferred out or when they are transferred back, the court has no right to interfere.

The Empress Dowager sighed and said, "Emperor Xi Bao left early, leaving behind this mess!"

Emperor Xibao was her son. He died young, leaving only a young prince and a posthumous son. This really made the mother feel sad.

And Emperor Xibao's queen and concubine became the queen mother of the two palaces. They controlled the government for the past two years and made the whole government a mess, which really made the empress dowager angry.

Lin Xiao said: "My aunt is the most noble woman in Dashun."

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes slightly and said calmly: "There is another Empress Dowager." (End of Chapter)
