Emperor's Lazy Queen

Chapter 64

"Pu..." Du Xiaoyue spit out her mouthful of tea, and cast her eyes, "I'm in a bad mood today, and I don't have the heart to argue with you!" Now his mind is completely occupied by Jiang Liangdi's affairs, and he is still talking Sarcasm!
"Do you want to go back to Du's Mansion?" Although she knew that she had been to Du's Mansion last night, she couldn't help asking.

"Is it possible?" Du Xiaoyue turned her head and asked, still wanting to meet Du Kangyong in person, to test his tone.

"Go at Weishi, return at Shenshi." Tan Wenhao thought for a moment, then looked at Du Xiaoyue solemnly, "Pang Xiaowei will accompany you to protect your safety."

"I'm not going to meet the bandit leader, do I need to send someone to follow me?" I put another piece of pastry in my mouth, without tasting it carefully, and said inarticulately.Du Xiaoyue didn't like that kind of ostentation, and now that she was going to a funeral to sniff out the wind, if she brought too many people there, she might not be able to sniff out any wind.

"It's for your own good!" Tan Wenhao persisted, stood up, turned his back to Du Xiaoyue in silence, "Some things are beyond your expectations!"

Gently weighing the meaning of Tan Wenhao's words, Du Xiaoyue stood up abruptly, turned to Tan Wenhao, faced him face to face, looked closely at Tan Wenhao, bit her lips lightly: "Do you know something? Do you know the inside story of my mother's death?"

"There is no inside story!" Tan Wenhao met Du Xiaoyue's eyes and said flatly, "Everything is as you have seen and heard, there is no inside story!"

"I don't believe it!" Du Xiaoyue clasped her hands tightly, tears flowed down uncontrollably, and finally knelt down, hugged her head, and sobbed in a low voice, "Mother, why do you want to commit suicide? Why! She said she was like this For my own good, she also said that everything was voluntary! She didn't understand at all that in my plan, she was going to travel the world with me!"

Seeing Du Xiaoyue's emotions erupt again, Tan Wenhao sighed lightly, knelt down, gently hugged her into his arms, stroked her back, and listened quietly to her low sobs.

"I'm very tired! Really." Du Xiaoyue didn't refuse Tan Wenhao's hug, took a light breath, with a faint musky scent, "Sometimes I think, when I am right with Du Kangyong, what good is it, The first thing that comes to my mind is that I can take my mother away—the Du Mansion is not a place where she can live."

"You and your mother have a good relationship?" Tan Wenhao asked hesitantly. She wrote in the contract that she hoped that if any accident happened to the Du family in the future, she would save Jiang Liangdi's life; , she always calls her life to everyone, as if she really has nothing to do with the Du Mansion, only Jiang Liangdi is an exception.

Pushing away Tan Wenhao, Du Xiaoyue stood up and let out a soft breath: "There are some things you won't understand! Don't talk about them!"

right!Tan Wenhao didn't understand that living in the royal family, even his own mother once used herself as a pawn to consolidate her position!On the other hand, Jiang Liangdi didn't seem to get any benefits from Du Xiaoyue, let alone use Du Xiaoyue as a pawn, but gave up her life for Du Xiaoyue!How many emotions are contained in this that will never be found in the royal family?

"What are you going to do now? Last night you already..." Tan Wenhao suddenly stopped talking, turned around and sat down. She didn't mention what happened last night, so she should pretend that she didn't know what she was doing!
"I guess, you should also know that I was taken back to the Du Mansion last night, right!" Du Xiaoyue also sat down, tapped the table with her hand, a little hurriedly, "You should also know that the person who took me away is Who, right! Even how I came back later, you should know, right!" Du Xiaoyue can swear that there is definitely his eyeliner in Zhaoyang Palace, and he knows such trivial things as reading Fengyue novels by himself, of course , was taken out of the palace for a walk last night, he should know even more!What's more, there were 72 imperial guards guarding Zhaoyang Palace last night. Are those guards really vegetarian?If those 'masters' could come and go freely in the palace, I'm afraid the world will change hands frequently!
Tan Wenhao just smiled lightly, covering his eyes: "Du Xiaoyue, sometimes I hate that you are so smart!"

"Then hate it to your heart's content! I don't want you to fall in love with me!" Du Xiaoyue blinked, "If you want me to stay in the palace like this, I think one day I will choose to be with my mother." Let's find a way!" Life in the palace is too tiring, no matter whether it is a woman who is favored or not, what's more, Du Xiaoyue has a different view of marriage and values ​​from the women here!

"Life in the harem made you miserable?" Tan Wenhao asked softly, with an indescribable sense of loss in his tone.

"Ha, that's not necessarily true!" Du Xiaoyue said haha, he must be the emperor, how could he really say all kinds of bad things in the palace in front of him! "Actually, the palace is pretty good. At least you don't have to worry about wearing it. Wherever you go, there are a lot of people behind you. It's very cool! Anyway, it doesn't matter whether life in the palace is painful or enjoyable. The most important thing is, you have to tell me, who is your eyeliner in Zhaoyang Palace? Red silk? Green bamboo? Xiuer? Or other A, B, C, and Ding?" Living under the surveillance of others every day is really not a good feeling !And when he knew that there was more than one person's eyeliner beside him, it was really unpleasant!

"You shouldn't suspect that I'm putting eyeliner around you, but you should suspect that other people are putting eyeliner around you!" Tan Wenhao replied, "You'd better prepare to go back to Du's mansion, I have ordered them to prepare The car sedan, accompanied by Pang Xiaowei, will leave before the time. I still have something to do, so I will go first." After speaking, he got up and left, just like when he came, without warning.

While the other palace people were sending the emperor off, Du Xiaoyue complained bitterly about Tan Wenhao. After fooling around for so long, he still kept his original decision!What a waste of tongue!Hmph, I'm talking about attendants, I'm afraid they are watching at any time!Alas, I accidentally cried in front of him, oh, I seem to have hugged him just now, as if tears and snot were wiped on the robe!

"Please get off the sedan chair!" the eunuch shouted in a shrill voice, and then the curtain was lifted, and a blue plain embroidered shoe stepped out first, and the owner of the embroidered shoe came out of the sedan chair in a second, wearing a light white plain suit. , with a plain face facing the sky, a jade hairpin slanted in her hair, a white silk flower on her temple, and no other accessories.

This is the second time to return to Du's mansion openly and aboveboard after entering the palace!Du Xiaoyue sighed, walked forward slowly, and after passing the big and small peasants of the Du family, she said lightly: "Get up! This palace is here to kneel down to worship mother, and those who have nothing to do can Withdrew."

In a word, more than half of the people bowed down, and the rest were the righteous masters of the Du Mansion, including Du Zhengxuan.

"Third brother, where is mother parked now?" Du Xiaoyue said directly to Du Zhengxuan, although she knew it was placed in the backyard of Du's mansion, but now she can't go straight to the backyard.At the same time, the Du Mansion knew that he was going to come in person, maybe Du Kangyong had already ordered someone to relocate Jiang Liangdi to another more formal place.

"Go back to Madam, Er Niang is now parked in Jiyuxuan, please go with me." Du Zhengxuan replied with low eyebrows, very satisfied with Du Xiaoyue's vigilance in his heart.

Ah!They really moved!Du Xiaoyue couldn't help but sneered in her heart, laughing that they were so good at showing off! "Then trouble third brother to lead the way." When Du Xiaoyue lived in Du's mansion, she never went out of her small courtyard, so she didn't know where Ji Yuxuan was.

Du Zhengxuan led the way, Du Xiaoyue followed, and Du Kangyong, his wife, a son, and two daughters-in-law followed behind Du Xiaoyue step by step.After worshiping in the main hall of Ji Yuxuan, he rested in the side hall of Ji Yuxuan. At this time, Du Xiaoyue had a formal face-to-face conversation with Du Kangyong.

"The deceased is gone, please don't be too sad! Take care of your phoenix body!" In the silent space, Du Xiaoyue was sitting in the right seat, drinking tea silently, her frown never furrowed. At this moment, Du Kangyong finally spoke, and there was a touch of sadness in his words.

"Father, let's be sensible and stop talking dark words." Du Xiaoyue put down her teacup, her eyes were already clear, the pain from just now receded at some point, and she glanced at Ding Yingwei who was beside her, "Mother is it?" Why is it gone? Mother’s health has been very good, how can I say that it’s gone when it’s gone?”

"The doctor said that she had a sudden illness, and there was something wrong with her heart." Du Kangyong replied without blinking, while Ding Yingwei, who was sitting by the side, was also calm and silent.

"Really?" Du Xiaoyue lightly raised her eyebrows, and called out, "Pang Xiaowei, I have an order from the palace to invite Imperial Physician Fei from the Imperial Hospital to conduct an autopsy in the main hall."

"No!" Du Kangyong's face turned pale and purple in an instant, and he jumped up, glaring at Du Xiaoyue, "Empress Empress, she is your own mother, don't you want your mother to go so you can't be safe? "

"Why not? If it doesn't work, I'm afraid it's Bengong who is not stable!" Du Xiaoyue was indifferent, raised her eyebrows and answered, "Mother loves Bengong so much, it's only natural that I just want to know what kind of illness Mother died of. - I think Lai Niang won't blame Ben Gong!"

"You are disrespecting the dead! Don't you believe what you say as a father?" Du Kang never cared about the courtesy of a monarch and minister, and used his father's airs to suppress Du Xiaoyue.

"I just want to know the truth. Besides, autopsies are common in lawsuits. How can you disrespect?" Du Xiaoyue asked back, stood up, walked in front of Du Kangyong, and pressed on step by step. , "Father objected so strongly, is there something ulterior in this? Is it possible that the facts that are different from what father said?"

"You!" Du Kangyong was forced by Du Xiaoyue to take a few steps back. He suddenly felt a kind of fear in his heart for this daughter who had been ignored all this time. The dangerous aura that emanates is far beyond that day!But Jiang is still old and spicy. In a blink of an eye, Du Kangyong shook his sleeves confidently with a calm face, walked a few steps to the left, and said calmly, "Is your empress suspicious of being a minister?"
