Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 747
"Empress Dowager, are you comfortable living in Jianjia Palace?" Shui Jian asked Bao Si in a calm tone.

"Your Majesty, do you also think that this palace is wronged?" Bao Si asked Shui Jiandao sincerely with her beautiful eyes looking forward.

"Queen Mother, there are indeed people outside attacking the Queen Mother, and the rumors in the palace are very ghostly, but you have to believe that I am still standing by your side. I announced that you are suffering from paralysis, and it is indeed to protect the Queen Mother and Queen Ping. life!" Shui Jian said to Bao Si very sincerely.

"Your Majesty, I trust His Majesty's arrangement, but you also have to worry about some traitor who will take the opportunity to create rumors, turn black and white, frame loyal ministers in the name of the Emperor, and poison the harem!" Bao Si's eyes became terrified, which made Shui Jian very surprised .

Prince Zheng's Mansion, Jue Tu, Cheng Rong and Ming Chao were trying to figure out the source of the disaster in the palace, when suddenly someone came to deliver an order, asking the three important ministers to rush to the Hall of Shuilong Shuren immediately to attend the court meeting.

"Qu Tu, you must never go out again. Let's refuse all court meetings on the grounds of being unwell!" Cheng Rong winked at Qu Tu, and Qu Tu resolutely rejected the imperial edict of the envoy.

"Your Majesty, Qu Tu, Cheng Rong, and Ming Chao have all been frightened, and now they are slightly ill and cannot go to court." Huang Men reported to Shui Jiandao in great panic.

"Is it true that Judu Cheng Rong was hunted down by assassins at the gate of the palace?" Shui Jian immediately picked up the memorial of Marquis Qi and put it on the case.

"Your Majesty, it is true that King Zheng and King Cheng were ambushed by men dressed in black at the gate of the palace, but they were not injured, and Cheng Rong brought people to protect Qudu, so it must be an excuse for them to be ill. I am worried that they are deliberately threatening the imperial court!" Ma Wumen, a doctor of the Ministry of punishment, held up his wat to play.

"What is the identity of the man in black? Could it be that Xirong's spies came to rob prison and rescue that Bo Li?" Shui Jian suddenly felt particularly abrupt.

"Your Majesty, the imperial guards did not participate in the battle. The corpses of the assassins inspected on the spot did carry the tokens of Empress Ma's Kunning Palace. I preliminarily concluded that it was Empress Ma's followers who did it secretly!" Hua Gu said very clearly, Shui Jian had to believe it.

"Ms. Ma has been imprisoned by me for beating my crown prince. How could she order her subordinates to assassinate Cheng Rong and Qutu? Besides, what enmity does she have with Qutu and Cheng Rong?" Shui Jian couldn't help asking incredulously.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is the cunning of the Empress Dowager. I heard recently that Zheng Wangjue suddenly believed the rumors outside and suspected that the Emperor was bullying the Empress Dowager Ping, so he entered the palace impulsively to argue with the Empress Dowager. Maybe these rumors are Empress Ma. People intentionally spread the news, causing King Zheng's Digging and the Emperor to misunderstand and kill each other, and then send assassins to deliberately assassinate Digging and Cheng Rong, trick Cheng Rong and Digging into resentment against the Emperor, and force them to rebel. One chain at a time!" Hua Gu analyzed step by step very realistically.

"Mr. Ma is so scheming. It seems that she is trying to provoke the relationship between me and my courtiers. I am curious, who is Queen Ma's subordinate in this court?" Shui Jian looked around at the courtiers.

"Your Majesty, I think that the real villain must be found out through strict interrogation!" the slippery Ma Wumen knelt down and kowtowed in plea.

"Okay, Ma Wumen, you torture Ma Shi immediately, I want her to confess very quickly!" Shui Jian's eyes were burning, and Long Yan was furious.

"Mingyue, do you think that the eunuch in the palace, Deru, dared to torture the queen without authorization? This is simply absurd. The emperor doesn't even believe his concubine!" After hearing Mingyue's angry report in Jianjia Palace, Bao Si couldn't help being filled with anger, and immediately Order Mingyue to prepare the sedan chair and go to Yangxing Hall to explain to Shuijian.

"Your Majesty, now everyone in the palace says that your Majesty suffers from depression, no one will believe your Majesty!" Mingyue said sadly.

"Ms. Ma is virtuous, we can only hope that she escapes this disaster." Bao Si couldn't help but meditate with her eyes closed.

In the Department of Punishment, the brutal De Ru had a sly smile on his face, and ordered the minions in the palace to inhumanly beat Ma Shi. Ma Shi's legs were broken, and he could only lie on the bricks to answer, and was dying.

"A daring commoner, wanting to murder the emperor is an unforgivable crime. Hurry up and confess, otherwise, I will report to the emperor that you will commit suicide!" De Ru treacherously threatened Ma Shi.

"You dog slave, relying on the treacherous concubine to back you up, you dare to poison this palace. If there is something wrong with this palace, the emperor will definitely not let you wait for the dog head!" Such as scolding loudly.

"Bold bastard, do you still think you are the emperor's concubine? You are really arrogant. It seems that I won't give you any strength. You are a bitch!" De Ru growled out of embarrassment.

"Deru! The empress is the queen mother of a country, and you dare to harm the nobles, you are so daring!" At this moment, with a bang, the door of the Punishment Department was kicked away, and a big man rushed in boldly. Pointing at Deru and Ma Wumen, he shouted loudly.

"Uncle Qin? As a prince, how dare you break into the Ministry of Punishment without authorization?" De Ru, who was frightened and trembling, pointed at Uncle Qin and threatened at the top of his voice.

"Slave dog, be presumptuous!" Uncle Qin rushed forward, grabbed De Ru, and punched De Ru until he hugged his head and begged for mercy.

"Uncle Qin, you broke into the prison without authorization, which is tantamount to conspiracy, come and take down Uncle Qin!" the furious Ma Wumen cursed loudly.

"Ma Wumen, this Marquis inherits his father's behest and is loyal to the Zhou family. He is not afraid of any prison at all. If he has the ability, he will lock this Marquis and the Queen in a big prison!" Uncle Qin was young and vigorous, and angrily scolded Ma Wumendao.

In Prince Zheng's Mansion, Cheng Rong heard the news that Uncle Qin had broken into the prison, and rushed to Que Tu's mansion very anxiously, and told Que Tu the whole story.

"Quitu, Qin Bo Yingming is the eldest son of the late old minister Yingxiang. This time he was framed by Ma Wumen and sent to prison because of his bravery in protecting the empress. If we don't come forward to avenge him, something big will happen to Yingming! "

Cheng Rong's anxiety caused Diggu to fall into chaos.

In the Hall of Shuilong Shuren, hearing that Uncle Qin was imprisoned by the traitor Ma Wumen without authorization, several princes filled with righteous indignation gathered outside the hall one after another, asking the emperor to punish Ma Wumen and avenge Yingming!

"Bold, you treacherous ministers dare to force the palace to rebel, come and arrest them all!" Xue Fan, the commander of the imperial guards, threatened the ministers arrogantly.

"Xue Fan, you are just Deru's godson, and you even dare to call the princes around. It seems that if you don't teach you a lesson, you won't know what Zhou Li is in the future!" Wat, beat Xue Fan, and Xue Fan fell under Dan Chi after being beaten several times by Qi Hou, vomiting blood.

"Qi Hou, you dare to kill the emperor's close ministers in front of all the officials, you are simply relying on the old to sell the old!" Hua Gu and Wei Hou, who were so frightened, reprimanded Qi Hou repeatedly.

"Weihou, you are still a relative of the Zhou family, and you actually assisted Hua Gu, a traitor, to cause trouble for the government. How can I tolerate you!" Immediately, fists and kicks add up, and the scene is out of control.

"It's the opposite!" At this moment, surrounded by De Ru, the furious Shui Jian turned pale with anger, and rushed down the stairs. At the same time, Qi Hou suddenly yelled three times, and slammed into His Highness's body. Shishi committed suicide on the spot.

"Marquis Qi!" Seeing this tragic situation, all the ministers cried out loudly.

"King Zheng, something is wrong. Marquis Qi just hit a stone lion and died in Shuilong Shuren Palace!" After a while, An Tong rushed to the study room of Qu Tu and Cheng Rong in great grief, knelt at their feet, People whimpered and reported.

"Father-in-law was actually murdered by Weihou villain?" Qu Tu suddenly burst into grief, and Cheng Rong also burst into tears.

"King Zheng, rumors are spreading everywhere in the street, saying that the Empress was framed because of King Zheng, it's really despicable! No one would have thought that these rumors are all evil plots by Marquis Wei!" An Tong couldn't contain his anger, Press the sword with your hand.

"Ju Tu, now is not the time for us to grieve!" Cheng Rong persuaded.
