Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 504 The Courage

"Big... so courageous!" Empress Dowager Liu stuttered in shock.

The old matriarch Rong was also shocked, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Queen Mother, yesterday, if Eunuch He hadn't said that the emperor wanted to announce the seventh prince, I'm afraid..."

I'm afraid the Seventh Prince is already dead!
Empress Dowager Liu's body trembled slightly.

That's right, those Xinggong eunuchs and imperial physicians have said that if the Seventh Prince bleeds for another half an hour, he won't be able to save him.

Those eunuchs, those eunuchs serving the Seventh Prince!
Those eunuchs were personally selected by her and Concubine De for the Seventh Prince after the emperor ascended the throne.

"Then Eunuch He, why didn't Eunuch He say it?" After wandering in her mind for a while, Empress Dowager Liu said hastily.

how stupid...

Liu Qi cursed secretly in his heart and said: "Those two palace people didn't tell Eunuch He and Su Yue about this matter, Eunuch He probably saw that something was wrong, but he couldn't go directly to Yaohua Palace, so he looked for it. The emperor made an excuse to see the seventh prince."

Empress Dowager Liu let out a sigh and said, "Yes, the Ai family also felt that something was wrong."

What the emperor likes is writing, painting, drinking tea and drinking. He is very repulsed by those editorial homework, not to mention ascending the throne. Even when he was a prince, he never asked his sons about their homework. How could there be a reservation? Summon the Seventh Prince to ask about homework?
Wait, since there is no such thing, why did the Queen and Concubine Li say that?

The emperor was in a trance yesterday, and she was also frightened, so she didn't ask the emperor, and subconsciously believed what the empress and concubine Li said.

I also have opinions on Su Yue in my heart.

Now it seems that someone said that on purpose!
And Eunuch He, the two of them also mentioned Eunuch He yesterday.

"Then, why didn't you tell the emperor and Ai's family?" Empress Dowager Liu said with a gloomy expression.

Liu Qi sighed inwardly, and said in a low voice: "Auntie, what can Eunuch He say? He doesn't know about the people in the two palaces, but it was just because of a little guesswork that something happened to the two princes. Besides, the emperor yesterday Aunt and you must be extremely sad, if you mention this matter to you two without any basis, wouldn’t it add to the trouble? Besides, if the person behind knows about this, then my nephew will not be able to ask anything.”

Empress Dowager Liu let out an "uh," and a look of embarrassment flashed across her face.

That's right, if Eunuch He told her yesterday that there might be other secrets about the two princes, she would definitely be furious and ask Eunuch He to bring him back immediately.

However, the people behind him can even instigate those around the Seventh Prince, so it is not easy to kill people in the palace.

At that time, not to mention Eunuch He, even Liu Qi might be involved.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Liu finally figured it out, Liu Qi sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, Auntie, now that the court is in chaos, this person has more thoughts. If this matter is not handled properly, it may lead to ..."

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, it's terrible!" A young eunuch's sharp cry came from outside the door, interrupting Liu Qi's voice.

Liu Qi frowned, got up, went to the door and opened the side hall door, and said, "What's the noise?"

"Your Majesty." Seeing that it was Liu Qi who came out, the little eunuch cast a sidelong glance at the little maid who was standing next to the door, and then said loudly, "It's no good, the emperor has been assassinated!"

Liu Qi first saw that the little eunuch was under Eunuch He's heart, and then saw the little eunuch's wink, and his heart paused again, and then he was shocked when he heard this, and said: "What's going on?"

"What, what do you mean the emperor was assassinated?" Before the little eunuch could reply, Empress Dowager Liu shouted loudly.

Liu Qi stepped aside and let the little eunuch go in, then glanced at the little palace lady next to the door without showing any signs, and quickly followed in.

The little eunuch had already knelt in front of the Empress Dowager Liu, and said: "Qi Empress Dowager, the emperor is fine, it was Miss Su who saved the emperor with her own body."

Hearing that the emperor was fine, Empress Dowager Liu relaxed a little, and after listening to the next sentence, she asked: "Be clear, what's going on!"

"That's right." The little eunuch said eloquently: "Today the empress announced Miss Su to enter the palace, and she was waiting in the palace with Concubine Li and Concubine Anjun He Cairen. As soon as Miss Su came, she asked Miss Su to testify It was Eunuch He who instigated someone to harm the two princes. Miss Su denied it, saying that there was no such thing, and told the ladies that Eunuch He is an old man who has served you by the Queen Mother for many years. If you want to frame Eunuch He, that is Frame you, Queen Mother."

Empress Dowager Liu's complexion suddenly changed.

She finally understood that the Queen and Concubine Li said something wrong with Su Yue and Eunuch He in front of her yesterday, so they were waiting here!

This killing of the two princes was of course aimed at seizing the heir. Eunuch He is an old man who has served her for many years, and now he is the eunuch next to the emperor. His position is very stable. Anyone who is the prince has to please him. If he I really have an idea, as long as I say a few more words in the ears of the emperor and the queen mother, it will be the greatest help, why bother to do such harm?
Behind this, I'm afraid she wants to pull her, the queen mother, down!

After all, although she, the queen mother, didn't care about the affairs of the previous court, Liu Qi had done a lot for the court and the emperor.

Just a while ago to curb food prices, Liu Qi not only contributed money and efforts, but also uncovered the He family by the way.

The same is true, so he was hated by people.

This is something that some people don't care about, and want to drag her Liu family into trouble!
"And then?" Seeing that Empress Dowager Liu was silent, Liu Qi asked anxiously.

Don't let anything happen to Su Yue, otherwise the guy outside who has gone berserk doesn't know what will happen...

"Seeing Miss Su's refusal, Concubine Li called the eunuchs of the punishment palace into the palace to punish Miss Su."

"Wait, don't the eunuchs in the Xinggong Palace only obey the emperor's orders?" the old matriarch Rong interjected.

Empress Dowager Liu's face darkened completely, and she said, "Speak! Keep talking!"

The little eunuch lowered his head, but he said very clearly word for word: "Those criminal palace eunuchs listened to the words of Concubine Li and Princess An Jun, put a stick on Miss Su, and beat Miss Su again. , the emperor arrived, the emperor was very angry, but before the emperor questioned, a eunuch of the Xinggong assassinated the emperor."

"What courage!" Empress Dowager Liu shouted sharply.

"And then!" Liu Qi hurriedly asked.

You first said that Su Yue saved her with her own body...

Damn, that guy doesn't know what he's going to do if he gets on the stick, if... if...

"Miss Su almost fainted from the pain at that time, but she still pushed the emperor away and used her body to block the front. Now the emperor has summoned Kong Miao to go for treatment."

The little eunuch's eyes rolled slightly, and he continued: "Also, the emperor was furious after he escaped from danger, and stripped the titles of Empress Li, Concubine Anjun, and He Cairen on the spot, and sent them to the prison, and ordered them to be punished." The palace must interrogate the person behind it, commit a great crime of treason, and kill the nine clans!"
