Chapter 23

After dinner with the Empress Dowager, and on the way back to the palace in a sedan chair, Rong Cen heard a child's voice suddenly sound in his head——

[Ding ~ regression value +0.5, congratulations sister! 】

[The current regression value is 9996.5, and the current deviation is 99.965%.Awu will continue to broadcast the situation for you in real time~]

[The task is still very difficult, sister speed up the promotion, so as not to be forced to obliterate spicy (﹏)]

Rong Cen sat up straight and pinched himself.

Hiss, it hurts.

She is still awake, why did the system come here?
Wan Li looked puzzled: "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

Rong Cen waved his hand, "Nothing."

The system escaped and did not speak again, and I don't know why the 0.5 came about.

Making money is not easy, she wants to earn points! -
When they arrived at the emperor's bedroom, Wanli closed the palace door tightly, sent the dragon guards to confirm repeatedly that there were no ears on the partition wall, and began to report the recent investigation.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Jiang is from Nanxun. She entered the palace on July [-] last year and came for peace."

July eleven.

Rong Cen gripped the armrest of the dragon chair tightly, pointing at the two giant dragons below.

On the twenty-fourth night of the fifth lunar month last year, the first emperor blocked a poisonous arrow for her, and the dragon was severely wounded.After finding out the murderer behind the scenes, he was extremely angry and his condition worsened.

At that time, Rong Cen was still King Yi and was ordered to supervise the country, but after a month or so, he received an urgent call from the Lingzhou Palace.

On the [-]th day of the sixth month, there was a summer feast in the great heat, and the last emperor passed on her.

And Concubine Jiang actually entered the palace on July [-]th!
Emphasizing filial piety, he married the imperial concubine before the national funeral on the 27th.

"Come here for peace..." Rong Cen felt ironic.

Nanxun was really ambitious. Once the first emperor died, he couldn't wait to place his chess pieces.

Wan Li also said: "The slaves used to sweep in the cold palace. I heard that Concubine Jiang is not the princess of the Nanxun royal family, but the adopted daughter recognized by Emperor Changning. It is said that her origin is unknown."

"Do you know where she is now?"

"I am recuperating in bed in the palace. Concubine Jiang was frightened at the New Year's Eve banquet, and accidentally slipped and fell into the water when she returned."

overboard?Concubine Jiang was pretending to be Concubine Jiang that night, and he said that someone would pretend to be Concubine Jiang to assassinate her.

Was it the Queen Mother who arranged for an assassin to pretend to be Concubine Jiang, but was cut off by Qi Xi?
Then the real concubine Jiang, what did she do during the period of the palace change?

Why did Qi Xi help her repeatedly?What is his purpose?

Rong Cen's head seemed to be stuffed with countless yarns, it was in a mess and he couldn't figure it out.

One of the top five, she wanted to let herself go for the time being, and asked, "What else did you find?"

Wan Li consciously massaged her temples with skillful techniques.

"As Your Majesty expected, ten boxes full of jasper fingers in the secret library of the Empress Dowager's Palace have exactly the same texture, and they are all made according to the one bestowed by the late emperor before his death. It's just that the slaves are useless and could not be smuggled out. , the Empress Dowager leaves the palace today, those treasures have been emptied by Feng Ju."

"The queen mother likes to throw and smash things. She shouldn't care about how many things she dropped, but she ordered Fengju to record them all in a book. The servant was puzzled, so she took care of this matter. Today, the servant finally got a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg, and Fengju recorded it. What matters is the reason, time and quantity of the Empress Dowager throwing jasper fingers."

“册子是从天佑五年开始记录的,二十余年来毫无间歇,多次出现天佑八年、天佑11年、天佑12年、天佑18年、天佑21年、天佑22年、天佑24年,其中又以天佑12年和天佑22年为最。”

It seems that these are the years when the emperor's concubines were pregnant or gave birth.

Only Rong Cen, King Xi, King An and a princess remained among the descendants of the first emperor. King Xi was born in the 12th year of Tianyou, and King An was born in the 22nd year of Tianyou.

The Empress Dowager is obsessed with power, no matter whether she has affection for the late emperor or not, Rong Cen is a fake son after all, if a concubine gave birth to a real son, the Empress Dowager would naturally be annoyed.

"Don't worry about it, just let her go."

She just wanted to confirm something.Now that it can be determined, there is no need to spend time paying attention.

"Yes. The servant also found out that the gate of the underworld is highly poisonous, but no poison can be detected. It is colorless, odorless and tasteless, and kills people invisible."

"It's just that there must be a road to the sky as a guide, and a small amount of hell door can kill you."

"The slave asked the imperial doctor Xiao Xie privately, but he didn't know about the poison. Aunt Konglan didn't know about it either."

Kong Lan's teacher is a genius doctor who travels around the world, and the poison she doesn't know about, could it be conjured out of thin air?

King Xi once said that it was the secret medicine of the Southwest...Xilin?Or Nanxun?

The purpose of the investigation was to find out the facts, but Rong Cen felt that the more he investigated, the more confused he became.

One thread pulls out countless thread ends.

I don't know which one is the real end.

Wan Li looked at His Majesty's exhausted expression, he still had something to say in his stomach, and he didn't know whether he should continue talking.

The pressing action on the temple became sluggish, and there was a moment.

Rong Cen simply closed his eyes and meditated: "What else? Say it all in one breath."

Inner sigh, come on come on, fierce storm.

All kinds of clues directly burned her brain to death.

"The slave found out about Mr. Qi..."

Qi Xi? !
Rong Cen opened his eyes, his expression became clear instantly, "Speak in detail."

"Yes. Lord Qi was last year... It should be two years ago now, that is, in the 24th year of God Bless, in the midsummer, there was a snowstorm in Xingcheng on the border of Nanxun, and His Majesty went south to rescue the disaster and calm the people. There are also several disaster relief officers in Nanxun, and Lord Qi is one of them."

God has blessed you for 24 years... Rong Cen remembers.

The climate in Nanxun is pleasant, and snow rarely falls in winter, not to mention that it is a disaster in hot summer.That year, a large number of refugees in Xingcheng fled to the border of Dayin, and it was difficult to govern for a long time, and the people were in dire straits.

Emperor Changning sent a letter of credence asking for help, and Rong Cen asked himself to go to the border to solve the refugee problem.At that time, she seemed to have hit it off with a high-ranking official in Nanxun. During the disaster relief, she had a tacit understanding, had a good conversation, and became a bosom friend.

So it's Qi Xi?She had no memory of it at all.
-
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Nanxun Mission left for China.

As the host, Rong Cen naturally needs to practice parting.

Last night, she suddenly found out that Qi Xi was her former confidant, she always felt weird in her heart.

"I haven't had a good look at Shengzhou yet, can Your Majesty take a trip to Kyoto?"

Qi Xi issued an invitation.

Rong Cen: Don't cue, I'm not familiar with Kyoto.

Beside him is the number one rich man in Kyoto who is proficient in eating, drinking and playing. She immediately threw out the hot potato, "Yan Xiao, show Master Qi to see the magnificent scenery of Kyoto."

"Then thank you, General Wenren."

"Master Qi has won the prize, hahaha!"

Wen Renxu couldn't say how happy he was, he was a three-legged cat, and he hadn't even joined the army yet, so someone saw that he was a good candidate for a general!

What a hero!
Although he is nothing now, he believes that he will be a powerful general in the future!
But Qi Xi's smile was genuine and fake, even Rong Cen could see it.

Why didn't you feel that he was such a person before?
"Isn't His Majesty going with you?"

"I approved the memorial..." the emperor's omnipotent excuse.

Just finished speaking, I remembered that the last time I was exposed using this excuse, it was to this person in front of me.

Qi Xi smiled but said: "Your Majesty is really diligent and encouraging. He always keeps in mind the important affairs of the government. He really has the demeanor of a wise emperor through the ages."
