serious man in the red chamber

Chapter 278
After [-], the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. The branches in the imperial garden are all green and full of vitality.

Emperor Jianwu walked in front with his hands behind his back, and Dai Quan followed him cautiously with his body slightly bowed.

Emperor Jianwu said as he walked: "Today is the last day of Jiujiu. The cold winter has completely passed, but my heart has never been so cold as it is now."

After hearing this, Dai Quan's eyes flashed a look of discomfort. Doctor Wang said that the old concubine was not relapsed, but was poisoned. As for the poison, I couldn't find out.

The only one who can have this method in the palace is the Supreme Emperor.

As Emperor Jianwu was walking, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Who do you think it could be?"

Dai Quan came back to his senses and quickly lowered his head, how could he dare to say who poisoned him.

Emperor Jianwu turned around slowly, his eyes were red and frightening: "Although the concubine is not his biological mother, she has raised him for more than ten years, and even single-handedly pushed him to the throne and helped him secure the throne. How could he Can you do it?"

Speaking of this, I couldn't bear it anymore: "Is he also planning to poison me to death!"

Dai Quan panicked and knelt down with a plop.

At this moment, a senior eunuch who was in charge of ceremonies hurried over and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, after checking, in the past few days, except for the empress dowager who sent someone to give the emperor a bowl of red bean balls, there is no one In and out of the Dragon Head Palace. In addition, today the Empress Dowager went to Daming Palace to pay her respects to the old concubine, and personally held a bowl of tea. But this happened two hours ago."

"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager!"

Emperor Jianwu stood there with his eyes looking up. Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he remembered something. He walked forward slowly a few steps, stopped again, then walked back, and said to the eunuch: "Take the dragon!" All the eunuchs and maids in the first palace have been changed and told to guard them closely. Also, no one is allowed to enter the Longshou Palace in the future, including the imperial physician!"

The chief eunuch, the chief inspector of ceremonies, replied loudly, "Yes." He hurried out.

Emperor Jianwu took a few more steps as usual, then turned to Dai Quan and said, "Go, go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace!" After speaking, he went straight to the outside of the imperial garden.

Dai Quan sighed silently and followed.

In front of the east corner gate of Ningguo Mansion, there were seven or eight carts parked in a row.

The big steward Lai Sheng was calling the boy to carry things inside, turned around and walked to the side of the wooden barrel, opened the lid, and saw a few mandarin fishes swimming happily in the barrel, Lai Sheng nodded in satisfaction, and looked at the steward behind him. Said: "Good life, take care of it, don't be careless."

The manager hurriedly laughed and said, "I'm more attentive to serving it than my old lady, so there will be no trouble."

Lai Sheng smiled: "It's much more expensive than your mother's gold."

The steward and the servants at the side all laughed.

Suddenly there was a rush of hoofbeats.

Lai Sheng and the stewards watched closely.

Jiao Da led several personal soldiers galloping forward.

Lai Sheng hastily greeted him.

Jiao Da got off his horse and asked, "Where is Second Master?"

Lai Sheng took the rein in his hand: "Outside the study."

Jiao Da nodded, then strode in.

In the study outside, Jia Hu was sitting in front of the desk, writing something with a pen.

Lin San stood silently beside the desk.

After finishing writing, Jia Hu blew on the ink, then folded the letter and stuffed it into an envelope, and said to Lin San, "Send this letter to Imperial Physician Wang, and just say I understand."

Lin San: "Yes." He took the letter and stuffed it into his bosom, then turned and walked out.

Jia Hu leaned back in the chair, staring up and down in a daze, he knew that the women in the harem were cruel, but he didn't expect to be so vicious!
When he saw the private letter from Imperial Physician Wang, Jia Hu guessed that it was the Empress Dowager's murder, because the Empress Dowager still wanted face.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, followed by a Jiaoda voice: "Second Master."

Jia Hu came back to his senses: "Come in."

"Yes."

Jiao Da opened the door and walked in.

Jia Hu looked at Jiao Da and asked, "Are you ready?"

Jiao Da walked to the desk and said in a low voice, "Something happened. Someone just entered the East City and was arrested by the Criminal Department."

"Oh?" Jia Hu frowned.

Jiao Da went on to say: "All the people in Dongshi have been transferred, and people from outside the city will not enter the city for the time being."

Jia Hu nodded.

Jiao Da hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Do you want to find a way to get news from the Ministry of Punishment?"

"Do not."

Jia Hu stood up with a wave of his hands, and said as he walked, "The only way now is to wait!"

Jiao Da: "Wait?"

Jia Hu: "Yes, wait! Li Jin has already completed the cleansing of the Ministry of Punishment. This incident must have something to do with him, and he is the emperor's confidant. Going to the Ministry of Punishment to inquire about news at this time is like going to the tiger's mouth."

Shocked, Jiao Day asked anxiously, "Is nothing wrong?"

Jia Hu walked to the window and stopped, waved his hands back, and continued, "Even if they search, they can only find the remnants of the Cao Gang. Don't forget, we have already built a new intelligence network, which can be discarded at any time." The remnants of those Cao gangs.

In addition, something happened in the palace right now, so I just took this opportunity to see His Majesty's reaction.If possible, use Wu Qingbo to lure the Empress Dowager out of the palace." At this point, Jia Hu's eyes flashed again.

Jiao Da's sunken eyeballs also flashed light: "I understand, this is called leading a snake out of its hole."

Hearing this, Jia Hu turned his head and glanced at Jiao Da with a smile.

Jiao Da smiled foolishly: "I, I'm just talking nonsense."

Jia Hu smiled: "You are right."

At this moment, the captain of the guard on duty came in, "Second Lord, urgent letter." He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Jia Hu.

Jia Hu took the letter and tore it open to read it. After looking at it, his eyes lit up, and then he said to the captain of the guard: "Go down."

The captain of the personal army: "Yes." He answered and turned around and walked out.

Watching him walk out of the door, Jia Hu turned his gaze to Jiao Da again, shaking the letter in his hand: "The man didn't say anything, and was directly killed in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Besides, our chance has come. You go back and prepare First let Uncle Wu Qing's mansion go into chaos, and force Uncle Wu Qing to come into the palace to ask for help." Then he leaned into Jiao Da's ear and whispered a few words.

Jiao's big eyes lit up: "Second Master, don't worry, I will definitely let this grandson go to the palace to ask for help."

Jia Hu waved his hand: "Let's do this first."

"Yes."

Jiao Da replied, and hurried out.

Jia Hu looked at the letter again, then walked to the small stove, picked up the copper pot, threw the letter into the hearth, looked at the letter that had been burnt to ashes, and smiled again. Temper, even threw the tea bowl in front of the queen, princess and third prince.

This is a naked slap in the face of the Queen Mother!
It seems that the emperor has already guessed.

Let's make a fuss, the more violent it is, the better for yourself!

Putting the copper pot on the stove, Jia Hu strode out.

"elder brother!"

As soon as he walked through the hallway, Xichun's voice came from the side. Jia Hu turned his head and saw Xichun walking from You's courtyard holding a kite and Ruhua holding two sugar figurines, talking and laughing.

Jia Hu smiled and walked over: "Where's the kite?"

Xichun held it up to Jia Hu as if offering a treasure: "Sister-in-law gave it to me."

Hey!
Jia Hu hurriedly took a step back, almost poked his nose, took the phoenix kite and looked at it carefully, the workmanship was very delicate, and he knew which one specially sent it, and then turned his eyes to the sugar figurine in the painting's hand, smiling Asked: "Is it delicious?"

Ruhua replied: "I haven't eaten yet."

Jia Hu smiled: "Give me one."

"what--"

Entering the painting draws a long tone, gritted his teeth with a look of reluctance, and handed the sugar figurine in his left hand to Jia Hu.

Jia Hu took the sugar figurine and took a bite, nodded and praised: "Not bad." Just as a gust of wind blew, he said to Xichun: "Come on, brother will take you to fly the kite."

Xichun jumped up excitedly: "Yes, yes!" After finishing speaking, she took Jia Hu and walked towards Huifang Garden, and said happily, "We're going to fly the kite!"
