boudoir

Chapter 334 Do you want an oracle?

Under Liuli's protection, Wei Qing did not die. When Qi Yunhao interrogated him, Liuli retreated to the room.After the mood relaxed, he fell asleep quickly, and when he woke up, it was already the next morning.

Qi Yunhao had already returned early, and Lu Zhao also came, and the two were talking in her flower hall.Hearing that Liuli woke up, Qi Yunhao came into the room immediately.Liuli slipped into his arms lazily, "Has Wei Qing come out for trial?"

He nodded, sighed, and took out a sign from his waist: "You never know who he is."

Liuli took a look at the sign and asked, "What is this?"

"This is the signboard of Qianqing Palace. Both Hanxue and Wei Qing are from Qianqing Palace, that is to say, they were sent by the Holy One."

"Holy Majesty?!"

Liuli sat up straight suddenly, "Why him?"

"There is nothing to be surprised about." He said calmly, "Remember what I told you? No emperor would rest assured that the military power of the country is in the hands of his subjects. Now my Qifu occupies six out of ten of the court. If the Holy Majesty doesn’t stare at us, it’s not normal. Although Wei Qing didn’t explain anything, you said that the information Hanxue sent out was the relationship between the various rooms in my palace and the relationship between me and the old man. In fact, this is the most critical point. No one in the court is more suitable than us to take charge of the military power in the camp, but if my father and son work together, it will be the biggest threat to the court, probably because me and the old man There has been discord, which is why the Holy Majesty has not taken back the military power until now."

Liuli murmured: "You mean, even the Holy Majesty is watching our house?"

He nodded, then also fell silent.

Liuli was speechless for a long time, and suddenly felt a little tired.The prince and queen have already caused her headaches, and now there is a holy majesty who doesn't really believe in Qifu and is secretly on guard against them. The Dingbei Palace looks peaceful and calm, but in fact it has already entered the center of the storm. up.

Originally, Liuli also thought that as long as King Dingbei didn't express his opinion, the palace would be in an active position, but this was not the case at all. Even if King Dingbei didn't support the crown prince or King Qing, as long as he still had military power in his hands, his every move would be decisive. All may be endowed with multiple understandings by the Holy One.

She agreed with most of what he said, but she still felt that there was a little difference here.

"I've seen some news from other mansions that Jugeng'er gave me, and I think the bias is still different. For example, in the Song Mansion and Guo Mansion, the Holy Majesty is concerned about the relationship between their father and son brothers in court, while our mansion Well, the Holy Majesty pays more attention to the relationship between you and the old man—how should I put it, I always feel that the Holy Majesty may also care about you in addition to the possibilities you mentioned. I don’t know if it is, anyway , that’s how it feels.”

She tried to express her feelings, but she still felt that the words were not enough.

"You think too much." Qi Yunhao stroked her head, "Although I'm closer to the Holy Majesty, I'm just his nephew, so I don't deserve his attention. Anyway, now that I know what's going on, many things need to be done. Re-arrangement also needs to improve defense."

Liuli nodded, then suddenly said: "What about Ningshuang?"

He said: "It doesn't matter, no matter who she is, now that Duan Wenhui is here, in order to prevent them from colluding secretly, I have to send her away."

"Where are you going to send it?" Liuli was concerned about this.

He thought for a while and said, "Since it was sent by Lu Zhao, I'll send it back to him."

Liu Li raised her lips and said: "At any rate, I shared the same bed with you, and I sent it back to another man. You don't mind responding."

Qi Yunzhen's face flushed suddenly, "I have such affection, it's not because you didn't exist at that time."

Liu Li smiled and said: "This person is not innocent at all. You are the same as Lu Zhao now. If Ning Shuang returned to him, wouldn't Lu Zhao have to free up his hands to deal with it? I guess if you send her When you go back, Lu Zhao will simply kill her. You just don't want to kill her yourself, so you send her back to Lu Zhao to kill, right?"

Qi Yunhao quickly turned serious: "I'm not reluctant!"

"I know you're not reluctant." Liuli looked at him, "I believe in you, but—forget it, let's kill him." She paused, then nodded with a sigh.

In fact, she doesn't have much doubts about Ningshuang in her heart. Ningshuang's scheming is shallow, and she only plays tricks to win favor, just like ordinary concubines in the back house.She originally wanted to see that she did not want to take her life because of the fact that she had served Qi Yunhao before, but what Qi Yunhao and Lu Zhao are going to do now is a fatal event, and there is no room for omissions. Since Yun Hao has long been merciless towards her, it is inconvenient for her to hold him back with her bit of womanly kindness.

If it is going to be a big event, how can a few people not die?Besides, it was Ningshuang who used the prescription to harm her with Mei Shi and the others.What if she pretends to be better than Hanxue, so what if something happens?Hasn't Hanxue been here for so long, and no one has discovered that she has martial arts?
Liuli gets out of bed and puts on her clothes, praying for Yunhao to leave the room first.After a while, he finished washing and came out, had some snacks first, then entered the flower hall, and saw a large carved recliner in the hall, inlaid with gold and jade, it looked very coquettish.

"Yo, grandma is out!"

Lu Zhao stood up and gave her a deep bow.

Liuli was annoyed at him: "Where did you sing again?"

Lu Zhao said: "Last time, because I asked Grandma a few words, your general knocked out half of my treasury. Yesterday Grandma captured Wei Qing and made great contributions. This reclining chair is a little gift from the king. I hope grandma will accept it with a smile."

Liuli glanced at Qi Yunhao, and saw him standing with his hands behind his back, with the corners of his lips raised, so he walked around the expensive recliner twice, and said, "If it were me, I'd just make one out of pure gold." Bring the recliner over here, it will show sincerity."

Qi Yunhao nodded: "Yizhen's words are very true. The prince still lacks sincerity."

Lu Zhao glared at him, then returned to the chair and sat down: "It's true that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black! You two are simply against robbers!"

Liuli smiled again, caressing the back pillow of the reclining chair and said: "My lord, don't feel bad, let alone a golden reclining chair, I can get two golden reclining chairs!"

Lu Zhao heard the smell, frowned, and said, "What do you mean?"

Liu Li waved the maid back, then sat down on the reclining chair, resting her head on the back pillow, and said, "Since the lord knows that I am Xu Shen's granddaughter, he must also know that when Xu Shen was leaving the capital, Emperor Taizu once You gave her a decree before parting, right?"

Hearing the words of Emperor Taizu and the decree, the expressions of Qi Yunhao and Lu Zhao all changed!

"If it weren't for the unjust murder of more than 30 people in Yongwang and Dou's family 300 years ago, and the Taizu never agreed to reverse the case after Xu Shen presented the ironclad evidence, Xu Shen would not have resigned from the palace. If it wasn't because he was ashamed of his relatives Son, there are more than 300 people in the Dou family, and the Taizu will not give Xu Shen that edict when he is parting. Let me ask the prince, do you want it?"

She looked forward leisurely, her mind seemed to have drifted thousands of miles away.

Lu Zhao stood up and stared at her for a moment before saying, "You mean, that edict has already come to you?"

Liu Li didn't make a sound, but took out the square yellow silk cloth from her cuffs and unfolded it, looked at the red characters above, and said: "'The land of the Lu family, my descendants live with virtue!' This is the decree of Emperor Taizu Even if the prince doesn't recognize Taizu's calligraphy, he must recognize the jade seal on it."

Lu Zhao's breath was a little uneven, he paused for a moment, then suddenly knelt down, took the edict with both hands and looked at it.

"Yes, indeed! Not only do I recognize this jade seal, but I have seen this handwriting many times!" Lu Zhao was so excited that his chest rose and fell, he stood up, and looked at Liuli, "You, when did you get it?"

Qi Yunhao received the decree, and was also very puzzled: "I thought this decree was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to exist. Yizhen never said it?"

Liuli was still half lying down, looking ahead from a distance, "This thing is very important, if it's not the moment when I have to take it out, how can I get it easily? The prince doesn't care when I got it, just say whether you want it or not." want?"

If it wasn't because she knew that the Holy Majesty had also sent someone to keep an eye on the Dingbei Palace, if it wasn't because she wanted to settle the dispute as soon as possible and protect the Dingbei Palace, she might not have brought it out.

Lu Zhao stared at Huang Ling, and said after a while: "For me, this decree is more important than the decree of the current emperor. I believe that I have never done anything without morality and benevolence. I am more qualified to inherit this decree than the prince. Why don’t you want the land of the Lu family? But since this is the decree given by the late emperor to Mr. Xu, it is naturally your Xu family’s property, but I can’t take it by force. Madam, if you have anything to say, you can just say it.”

Up to this time, the dissatisfaction that had always existed in his words had completely disappeared at this moment. At this moment, what he showed all over his body was no longer the cynical and rich young man that he usually showed in front of everyone, but a genuinely calm and calm man. A restrained prince with the vigor to look down on the world.

Liuli finally shifted her eyes to him, with a hint of admiration in her eyes, not to mention anything else, she told him that if he knew that it belonged to the Xu family and could not be taken by force, he would be many times better than the prince.

"The lord is indeed a person who hides his secrets, and he knows the end of the story. Now that I have come to this point, I will say it directly." Liuli also suppressed the smile on her face, and said seriously: "If you want this decree, I can give it to you." You. If you want to find Dou Chen, I can also cooperate with you. However, I want to rehabilitate the young master Dou Jue's family of 340 and seven people. Return to Beijing, can you agree?"

The most skillful thing Liuli has done in her life is to negotiate terms.If you want to pretend to be the Zhongyonghou Mansion, without the power of Lu Zhao, it will not work.It was Lu Zhao's own father who killed the Dou family back then, and he wouldn't help her if he didn't give him enough sweetness.Since this decree was written out of Emperor Taizu's guilt, it would not be a waste to use him to reverse the case for Dou Mansion and King Yong.
