Chapter 839 The Grand Finale (12)
The emperor gave her a slightly strange look, "Your mind is really clever! It's true that I really didn't think of this. I thought that the one he subdued was Xiao Qiang in the palace, but I didn't expect that the concubine Xian was also his! "

"Father, if you want to know the truth, let's go to Qinzheng Hall together. Maybe I can solve the doubts in your heart."

Not only the emperor, even Yuan Xi and Qing Tian looked at her in shock, "You know?"

Jingyi nodded, but there was an extremely complicated look in her eyes, "I also only found out not long ago. In Kunning Palace, I was captured by Concubine Xian, and when I confronted King Ming, I accidentally discovered that of."

Concubine Shu worried: "Yiyi, the situation outside is extremely complicated now, you'd better not go up! Wouldn't it be better to stay here with Concubine Mother?"

"Mother and concubine don't need to worry, since father has already made arrangements, I believe there will be no danger. What do you think, father?" At this moment, Jing Yi's face was already smiling like a flower.

The emperor naturally smiled and said: "Yiyi is right! Ali, you can stay here first. When everything outside is calmed down, you can go out again. I will send a hidden guard here to protect you. Don't worry. Du Hai! "

"The old slave is here."

"Take concubine Shu to the secret room. Also, arrange hidden guards."

"Yes!" Du Hai bowed in response, "Your Majesty, please come with this old slave."

Concubine Shu glanced at Yuan Xi and the two with some concern, "You must be careful. Don't act like a hero."

There was a flash of something in Jingyi's eyes, and she suddenly said: "Wait! Concubine Mu, maybe you will go up with us, it will make the matter easier to solve."

"What do you mean?"

Yuan Xi also looked at Jing Yi with a puzzled expression, and Jing Yi smiled and said: "In the past few days, you have been avoiding King Ming's search, so now I know the most news about the dark pavilion. Yuan Xi, You would never have thought that maybe the concubine could send back Duke Ding's troops without any effort!"

"Mother concubine?"

"she?"

The voices of Yuan Xi and the emperor sounded at the same time.The two felt a little awkward for a while, so they both turned their faces away in embarrassment.

Jingyi smiled and said: "No need to worry. Concubine mother, I only want to ask you a question. When you were in Miaojiang, do you still remember a young general named Jin Ao?"

Concubine Shu said without thinking: "Of course I remember! He taught me riding and archery! By the way, when I left Miaojiang, he was only a young general in his early twenties. What's wrong?"

"Then if you see him now, can you still recognize him?"

Concubine Shu hesitated for a moment, "There should be no problem. However, I am worried that we have not seen each other for more than 20 years. The two of us have changed too much, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to recognize for a while. But if you look closely, you can still recognize it."

Yuan Xi said: "The portrait of the concubine mother is still exactly the same as when she was young, and there is no change. But what happened to Jin Ao you mentioned?"

Qing Tian said: "I know this. After Jin Ao heard the news of the princess' death, he was accompanied by wine all day long and couldn't wake up. Later, I don't know what the king called him and what he said. Later, he Then he disappeared. No one in Miaojiang knows where he went?"

A gleam flashed in Yuanxi's eyes, "Yiyi, are you suspicious of Duke Ding?"

The emperor was also shocked when he heard this, and after a while, his face was a little furious, "What a king of Miao Jiang, he has such a hand? Do you know about him, A Li?"

Concubine Shu shook her head in a daze, "I haven't understood what you mean? You mean that Duke Ding is Jin Ao from back then? Impossible?"

"Nothing is impossible! Jin Ao cared about the princess wholeheartedly, and worried that the princess would not live as she wished in the Central Plains, so he sneaked into Dingguo's mansion in order to protect the princess secretly."

"Impossible!" Concubine Shu directly denied.

"Why is it impossible?" Jingyi asked a little puzzled.

"If General Jin Ao really used the disguise cup, it would be impossible to maintain it for such a long time. Although the disguise cup has the beauty of disguise, it is extremely harmful to the body. Moreover, the cultivation of the disguise cup is extremely difficult. It is not easy, even if it is cultivated, it can be used. It can only be used for a year at most! If it is true what you and Qingtian said, how many disguise cups has Jin Aode raised in the past 20 years? Besides, when I entered the The queen of the palace also often attends palace banquets. I belong to the Miaojiang royal family, so I naturally have the Miaojiang royal family's secret mother cup, if someone really uses the disguise cup, my mother cup will not be unresponsive."

Concubine Shu said, and then said: "Don't say it's too close, as long as I have a banquet in the same hall, my mother cup will respond. But until now, it has never reacted excessively , This shows that Ding Guogong will not be Jin Ao! Moreover, Jin Ao's character is completely different from the current Ding Guogong! Even if he disguises himself as Ding Guogong, I am afraid that he will not be as cowardly as he is. temperament!"

"You mean that Jin Ao's temperament is too far from that of Duke Dingguo. But concubine Mu, a person's temperament will change after more than 20 years. Besides, the news of your death in Miaojiang was a blow to him. It’s too big, if he is stimulated because of this, maybe it is.”

"Impossible! Even if a person changes again, it is impossible to become two completely different people! Didn't I say that, the most important thing is that there is no disguise cup in his body."

The emperor glanced at Concubine Shu, seemingly hesitant to speak, Yuan Xi asked: "What did the father find?"

The emperor looked at Concubine Shu, and said with evasive eyes: "Ali, shortly after you entered the palace, the hidden guards in the palace found that someone was secretly protecting you. I didn't think much about it at the time, thinking it was King Miao Jiang. The hidden guards sent, so they didn’t stop them! And that person doesn’t seem to be approaching, just hovering around the periphery of the palace. Now that I think about it, that person may be Jin Ao.”

"Then do you think Jin Ao knows the secret of Concubine Li's suspended animation?" Jingyi asked.

The emperor shook his head, "I probably don't know. Although Jin Ao's martial arts are not weak, the hidden guards in my palace are not vegetarians. How can it be so easy to let him enter the inner hall? It is even more impossible for him to find out what I have done. more secretive things."

Qing Tian thought for a while and said: "It's useless for us to guess here now. It's better to go up and have a look together. Your Majesty, are you sure the situation above is under your control?"

"Naturally! Even if I can't control it, isn't there still King Ping? His power must have entered the palace by now, right?"

Prince Ping looked a little uncomfortable, but he nodded, "Father is right, most of the people in the dark pavilion have already entered the palace." Then he turned to Jingyi and said, "Other You don’t need to worry, I have sent another team to secretly protect the Pingnan Hou Mansion. I will not let them have any trouble.”
