The evil sister-in-law dressed as a yandere boss

Chapter 877 Now is a good opportunity

Envoy Zhang Yuan took the Emperor's pulse and then nodded to the Queen Mother.

After Yan Baiqi learned that the emperor was really seriously ill, he went to Concubine Gao anxiously. Concubine Gao was very surprised when she saw him coming.

While Yan Baiqi breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but mutter: "Concubine, are you okay?"

Concubine Gao didn't know why: "What can happen to me?"

Yan Baiqi's face turned ugly for a moment: "Someone sent me a message saying..."

Concubine Gao's expression also changed.

Someone sent false news to Yan Baiqi, leading him to enter the palace and appear at the entrance of Xuande Hall. What does this mean?
She always felt that something was wrong, which made people very uneasy. Concubine Gao couldn't figure it out for a moment. She was a little panicked. There had been too many things happening in the palace recently, and she always felt that there was no peace here.

It is said that when a book is put to use, you will miss it, and the same goes for people. There are not many around Concubine Gao who can use it. The key is that her brain is not very good, and Yan Baiqi cannot take on big responsibilities. She suddenly misses the time when Tao Zhen was here. If she were here, she would definitely find a way.

The mother and son looked at each other, probably thinking about the same thing, but they didn't say anything.

……

"Are you sure?" the Queen Mother asked, holding the prayer beads in her hand.

Envoy Zhang Yuan nodded: "Although we are not sure, judging from His Majesty's pulse, it is indeed not pretending to be ill."

The Queen Mother stood up, walked a few steps, and then sat back down, with a sullen face not knowing what she was thinking.

Zhang Yuan envoy said: "Your Majesty, this is indeed a good opportunity. If your Majesty cannot wake up, the prince's side will not be able to stabilize the situation for the time being. Moreover, King Qin has entered the palace. If something unexpected happens, the entire responsibility can be put on them. Go up."

The Queen Mother still did not speak. There was still a person standing next to Zhang Yuanshi. He lowered his head and waited for the Queen Mother's reply.

After a while, the Queen Mother nodded and looked at the people around Zhang Yuanshi: "Go and do it."

The man nodded and left.

……

Tao Zhen and Shi Lu thought they had to wait for the opportunity, but Yan Huaijin did not leave the palace until dark, and someone from the palace sent a message saying that the prince stayed in the palace to discuss something and would come back tomorrow.

The emperor was ill, so it was normal for them to discuss matters.

Tao Zhen asked people to lure the guards away. When Shi Lu left the capital, he could go to the east dock and take a boat all the way to Chu State. However, the city gate was suddenly under martial law and no one was allowed in or out.

Shi Lu waited for a long time but didn't get the chance. He was about to go back to the palace first. As soon as he opened the door, a knife was placed on his neck.

Tao Zhen also encountered the same situation. She sent Shi Lu away and planned to go home. The Pei family was very quiet, as if it was no different from every time she went out.

only……

"What's wrong?" Mingyan didn't know why.

Tao Zhen said: "It's too quiet. Yu Shu's dog didn't bark."

Yu Shu moved out from Pei's house and rented the house next door to Pei's house. The dog was very keen and would bark whenever there was any movement. Pei Zhan was frightened by the dog several times, and every time he said he would heat a pot and eat dog meat.

But the dog was too quiet today. They all walked here and the whole alley was still quiet.

Tao Zhen said: "Turn around and leave."

The driver immediately turned around and went to the yard of the Pei family's old servant. When Uncle Zhang saw Tao Zhen, he nodded to her, looked outside the door warily, and then closed the door.

Uncle Zhang asked: "Young madam, has something happened?"

Tao Zhen said: "I think the Pei family is not normal."

Uncle Zhang nodded and said, "Yu Shu's dog didn't bark, and the lights at home seemed to be turned on a little late."

Uncle Zhang never went to Pei's house, but after dinner every day he would sit at the door looking in the direction of Pei's house for a while. If the dog didn't bark, he felt strange. The Pei family had a fixed time to light the lantern every day, but today it was time to light the lantern. It didn't light up. It turned on after a while. Now that he saw Tao Zhen coming, how could he not think that something had happened.

Tao Zhen couldn't sit still and wait for death, so he asked someone to go to Longxi Palace. The door of Longxi Palace was also closed. Yan Huaijin's people should have discovered that Shi Lu was missing at this time, but no one was looking for him.

She went to Prince Qin's Mansion overnight again, and Tao Ling was very surprised by her arrival. "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

Although the tone is still bad, the attitude is not so cold after all.

"Where is Yan Baiqi?" Tao Zhen asked.

Tao Ling frowned: "It's so late, what do you want to do with the prince?"

Tao Zhen asked with a cold face: "Did Yan Baiqi enter the palace?"

Tao Ling was a little panicked: "Did something happen to the prince?"

Tao Zhen did not answer, but asked again: "Did Yan Baiqi enter the palace?"

Tao Ling also realized something was wrong. She nodded: "The prince entered the palace in the afternoon and never came back."

Sure enough.

"What's going on?" Tao Ling stopped Tao Zhen, as if she wouldn't give way unless Tao Zhen said anything.

Tao Zhen glanced at her and said, "If Yan Baiqi doesn't come back tomorrow, you should hurry back to Tao's house."

She left after speaking.

Tao Ling looked at her back and felt an ominous premonition.

Tao Zhen went to Ning Guogong's mansion. The Ning family was not asleep yet. Especially Ning Hao, who was still thinking about Yan Bei. When he learned that Tao Zhen was here, he was surprised, but he still asked Tao Zhen to come in.

When Tao Zhen entered the door, Ning Hao asked, "What happened?"

Tao Zhen nodded and recounted the day's events. Ning Hao walked around on the ground and said, "I understand. You should find a place to hide first. Don't go back to Pei's house."

After everything was done, Tao Zhen went to Brother Lu to find a place to live.

The palace was even more uneasy. Yan Baiqi was trapped in the palace. The queen's and Concubine Gao's bedrooms were not far from each other, but they still couldn't see each other in the high-walled compound.

"Something must have happened." Concubine Gao said anxiously: "The prince can't wait to force the palace. I know that he is used to pretending to be as hypocritical as the queen."

Yan Baiqi also looked solemn: "Is he really the prince?"

He felt that there was absolutely no need for the prince to do this. It was a capital crime to force him into the palace. The throne would be his sooner or later. Why would he take such a desperate risk?

Concubine Gao didn't care about Yan Baiqi's doubts. She said, "I can't wait any longer. What else could it be? After all these years, the fox's tail is finally exposed."

Concubine Gao said worriedly: "Now that your father is ill, I can't even take a look. Who knows what they did to your father?"

Yan Baiqi said: "The Queen Mother took Mr. Zhang to see..."

After hearing this, Concubine Gao's face became even more ugly.
The Queen Mother and the envoy Zhang Yuan did not see anything. Does this mean that the emperor is really in trouble?

The emperor was her reliance in the palace and the backer of both mother and son. If something happened to him, the concubine could not imagine it.

The prince seemed much calmer here.

Mother and son sat opposite each other, but they didn't know what to say.

The Queen said: "Is it Concubine Gao's fault?"

The prince took a sip of tea and said, "Do you think the queen is Concubine Gao?"

The queen said: "Who else could she be? She only wants her son to be the emperor. She doesn't care about the virtues of King Qin."

The prince listened quietly, his expression hidden in the shadows and he could not see clearly. The queen usually talked a lot, mostly nagging, which was different from her cold image in front of others.

The queen disdained Concubine Gao and looked down upon her for her sexual intercourse, but she was also jealous of Concubine Gao's youth and beauty, which made her prejudiced against Concubine Gao herself. Therefore, no matter what happened in the palace, the queen would always think that Concubine Gao was Made by the royal concubine.

The prince thought that Concubine Gao was not that capable, and her natal family was not good enough. All her things were given by the emperor, and she was completely dependent on the emperor.

Now that the emperor is ill, she is running around like a headless fly, and Yan Baiqi is embarrassed and a waste!
