Rebirth of the Abandoned Concubine: The Poison Goddess Doctor

Chapter 521 Collapse, this is a bet

Yingchu bid farewell to the Ninth Prince, turned around and walked a few steps forward, seeing the Ninth Prince following up, looked at him suspiciously.

The Ninth Prince smiled and said: "I happen to have something to see my father, and we happen to be on the same road."

Yingchu retracted her eyes without any other choice. The Ninth Prince said so, and she couldn't say anything. Maybe he wanted to help her. Although she didn't need it, it was obvious that the Ninth Prince's temperament would not accept it at all. Her refusal was just like the time when Jiumei was placed.

The two of them walked all the way to the outside of the imperial study room, and Quan Sanxi was guarding the door. Seeing them coming, he immediately walked down the stairs with a smile on his face, and said, "I have seen His Highness Jiu and Lord Qianji. The emperor is talking with the courtiers." For discussion, please wait a moment, Your Highness and Lord Weng."

The Ninth Prince glanced at the closed door of the Royal Study Room, and asked: "I just went to the court today, and if there is anything that should have been discussed at the court earlier, could something be urgent?"

In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, there will be a great dynasty every nine months. Officials of the sixth rank and above in the capital must go to the court. The square outside the Golden Luan Hall will be crowded with hundreds of officials. Only high-ranking officials have the opportunity to appear in front of the emperor. Of course, if it is not a major event, those small officials dare not disturb the audience.

Each court lasts for a relatively long time, and many state affairs will be discussed in the court. After the court, basically no officials will come to the imperial study to discuss matters.That's why the Ninth Prince was surprised.

"This miscellaneous family doesn't know about it," Quan Sanxi paused, and said in a low voice, "However, when Mr. Tai Changqing entered, his face was a bit solemn, so maybe something really happened."

The Ninth Prince stared and pondered, Tai Changqing was in charge of the mausoleum temple group worship, rituals, music and rituals, there are no celebrations and festivals recently, that is related to the mausoleum temple.He almost immediately thought of the "monster" and turned his head to look at Yingchu.

Yingchu already had a guess in her heart, and the matter was probably related to her. Some people were afraid that the contents of the rumor would not kill her, so they wanted to add fire.

The Ninth Prince quickly withdrew his thoughts, and said to Quan Sanxi with a smile: "Thank you for the reminder, Chief Manager, it seems that when we see the Father later, we all have to be careful not to make the Father angry."

"Your Highness Ninth Prince, you're being polite." Quan Sanxi couldn't talk too much with them, so she pleaded guilty and went back to the door of the imperial study to continue guarding.

In the imperial study room, Tai Changqing, who had white beard and hair, knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at the angry Hongguang Emperor.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has sent people to check it carefully, and found nothing suspicious. The National Temple really collapsed inexplicably," Tai Changqing said tremblingly, "The National Temple was just repaired the year before last, and the old minister personally supervised the construction. Yes, there is absolutely no aging and decay, and there has been no wind or rain recently, so the old minister really can't find out the reason!"

The national temples enshrine tablets for the founding heroes and important ministers who have made great contributions to the court. Although their status is not as high as that of the Taimiao, they are also highly valued by the court, especially those meritorious families. Almost every family has their ancestors. In the national temple, the national temple suddenly collapsed now, even if Emperor Hongguang didn't pursue it, those aristocratic families would not let it go.

Emperor Hongguang had already made a round of anger, looking at the old minister lying on the ground trembling, he was angry and helpless, Tai Changqing was his emperor's uncle, he was idle when he was young, and he could not hold an important position securely, so That's why he was assigned the leisurely position of Taichangqing.

In the past, even if there was a small problem in Taichang Temple occasionally, it was insignificant. He just turned a blind eye and let it go, but today the fact is too big, and he can't handle it even if he wants to.

"How many people know about this now?" Emperor Hongguang asked.

Tai Changqing hurriedly said: "The old minister asked the people below to block the news. No one should know about it yet, but paper can't cover fire, and I'm afraid it won't be long before they can't hide it."

Emperor Hongguang has a headache, too, even if it is concealed temporarily, the national temple will always be rebuilt, and such a big movement will alarm everyone, how can it really be concealed.

"The emperor saves the old minister!" Tai Changqing cried with snot and tears, "The old minister is loyal to the emperor. He has worked hard for so many years without credit, how can the emperor have the heart to let the old minister suffer for a long time, woo woo ..."

Seeing that he was really crying, Emperor Hongguang felt his head hurt even more.

Inside, Emperor Hongguang was worrying, and outside the imperial study, a long line of courtiers fell behind Concubine Yin, walking over with great demeanor.

"See the imperial concubine and empress." The Ninth Prince and Yingchu pulled their knees together and saluted.

"I can't afford your gifts," Concubine Yin said coldly, "Master Qianji is so arrogant, I have to come here in person if I want to see each other, and the Ninth Prince, shouting at my people , I have no choice but to make concessions to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince!"

"The noble concubine is serious," the Ninth Prince smiled, "My father summoned Lord Qianji, and as a son of mine, of course I put my father first in everything. Isn't the noble concubine right?"

Concubine Yin gave him a sharp look: "Of course the emperor is the first in everything in this palace, that's why people invited Qianji over, but the Ninth Prince kept using the emperor as a cover, but he didn't care about the emperor's safety at all, that's all." Let Qianji, the cursed star, run in front of the emperor, if there is any harm to the emperor, can you afford it?!"

"The noble concubine speaks carefully," the Ninth Prince said, "You can't talk nonsense about the misfortune star. The father summoned the Lord Qianji, and he still doesn't know why. If it's urgent, the noble concubine will take the person away first, and when the time comes How should I explain to my father? With all due respect, my father has his own decisions about my father's affairs. As a concubine, it is better not to meddle in my father's affairs casually!"

"You!" Concubine Yin's eyes suddenly became very sharp, and the Ninth Prince's words almost directly said that she interfered in the government affairs, which is really despicable!
"I only care about the emperor's safety, but you are spitting blood here!" Concubine Yin sneered, "Everyone knows what public beauty is, and they don't know what benefits she has given you to let you protect her like this." , see the emperor later, I hope you don't regret the current maintenance!"

"I don't need the concubine to worry about that." The Ninth Prince said with a fake smile.

Concubine Yin snorted coldly, turned around and ignored them.

The Ninth Prince's words were tough, but his heart was actually a little bit drummed, but this was a gamble.It's easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to give charcoal in the snow. Gongyi Keying is in crisis at this time, so his help and protection will be remembered in her heart.

He felt that being smart and witty with fair manners had a great chance of surviving this crisis, so he chose to stand by her side. In case of an accident and she lost her life, he would not be able to afford it.

But there are no free benefits in this world, and this is not the first time he has taken risks. He believes that Gongyi will not let him down!

After waiting for a while, some courtiers came one after another, all from various families, all of them had serious complexions and frowned.

After asking, the Ninth Prince found out that it turned out that the side hall of the National Temple had collapsed. Fortunately, the enshrined tablets were all in the main hall and were not damaged. Otherwise, everyone would have gone crazy, but this was enough to make everyone frightened and angry. He rushed to the palace almost as soon as he got the news.

The Ninth Prince was shocked, and subconsciously looked at Yingchu.

Although Yingchu's complexion was a bit ugly, she was still calm and calm, and the Ninth Prince settled down a bit.He didn't expect that someone would dare to attack the National Temple. To do such an outrageous thing is obviously not to give up until the public can be put to death!With the ability to be fair and respectable, he should be able to save the day... right?

Qihou was also among the crowd, but in this situation, he didn't even dare to look at Yingchu, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley, thinking that this granddaughter would really end up here today.Before leaving the house, the whole family said that they would take the Gongyi family out. Although he didn't respond, he had already agreed to their words in his heart...

So many people came outside, Quan Sanxi hurried in to report to Emperor Hongguang.

As soon as Tai Changqing listened, everyone already knew about the collapse of the National Temple, and his whole body was paralyzed, and his anxious eyes rolled upwards.

Emperor Hongguang was afraid that he was really in a hurry to do something wrong, so he said: "Okay, okay, don't worry, I will definitely protect you!"

Tai Changqing's eyes immediately stopped rolling, and she kowtowed in gratitude: "Old minister, thank you for your kindness! Thank you for your kindness!"

Emperor Hongguang signaled Quan Sanxi to open the door: "Let everyone outside come in."

Quan Sanxi opened the door of the imperial study room, and was about to announce the audience, when she heard exclamations from outside.He took a closer look, and opened his mouth wide in astonishment, his eyes full of disbelief.

A group of virtual phoenix birds surrounded Gongyi Keyin, chirping cheerfully, and some bolder birds landed on Gongyi Keyin's shoulders and hair ornaments, and gently pecked at her with their pointed beaks. hair.

The virtual phoenix bird is the sacred bird of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Because it is red all over, has beautiful feathers on its head, and has three long and gorgeous tail feathers behind it, it is very similar to the legendary phoenix, so it is called the virtual phoenix bird. .

The number of virtual phoenix birds is rare, and it is almost impossible to see them in the wild. The rare bird garden in the palace only raises a dozen of them, and concubines with low status are not eligible to watch them, which shows their preciousness.

But at this time, those dozens of Xuhuang birds flew here for some reason, and they were still singing around Gongyi Keyun, so it's not surprising.

The others are fine, Concubine Yin just barely popped her eyes out.These virtual phoenix birds are very proud, even the people who raise them can't get close to them, and they don't even care about feeding them food if they are not familiar with them.

Because the phoenix is ​​shaped like a phoenix, and the phoenix has the meaning of supremacy, many concubines try to get close to the phoenix, but even if it takes many days, few people can successfully win the favor of the phoenix.

But now, this group of haughty phoenix birds took the initiative to join Gongyi Keying, who had never seen them before!How could this not make her jealous and angry!
"Gongyi Kexiong, what did you do?" Concubine Yin's voice was sharp, "What kind of magic did you do to the holy bird?!"
