The correct posture for attacking the Boss

Chapter 375 The Assassination of Gongdouzhang

Chapter 375 Gongdou Chapter Assassination
"The top priority is that you want to win the emperor's favor and give birth to the emperor's eldest son. Once the incident happens, the prince will be your life-saving talisman." The Queen Mother Su sighed and said earnestly, "Che'er, the Ai family treats you as their own daughter. I hope you are doing well."

"I know." Su Qingxi bit her lip, pretending to be reluctant to cope.

Empress Dowager Su patted the back of her hand in relief, and said softly, "You must have not slept well last night, go back and rest."

"Yes." Su Qingxi responded, saluted the Queen Mother, and left Ningshou Palace.

After Su Qingxi left, the Empress Dowager Su suppressed the smile on her face, "How credible do you think her words are?"

Aunt Qingzhu said, "This servant feels that it is understandable for a little girl to miss her parents, but Concubine Shu has always been well-behaved, so it is really strange why she suddenly did such a reckless thing."

"She grew up in the frontier fortress and was used to being wild. She has restrained herself in the past few years. It is not surprising that she can do such a thing. I just didn't expect that she would leave the palace without consulting with Ai's family. I really can't handle her." Empress Dowager Su looked a little cold.

"Your Majesty is right." Aunt Qingzhu nodded.

……

Su Qingxi came out of the Ningshou Palace, thinking about the Queen Mother's intention to let her give birth to the eldest son of the emperor, whether she wanted her to give birth to the child and put it in front of the Queen Mother to raise it, and then harm the new emperor, and support the little prince to ascend the throne, then the Queen Mother can He listened to politics behind the curtain in an aboveboard manner.After all, the fifth prince did not leave a son and a half daughter behind, and the original owner listened to the queen mother, if she supported the little prince, wouldn't she let the queen mother control the government?
Su Qingxi made a conspiracy theory.

If this is the case, then the Queen Mother is not a rebel, right?Unless the queen mother wants to call herself the empress and change dynasties.

Su Qingxi felt that the possibility of Empress Dowager Su wanting to become emperor was very small. After all, she could almost get the same rights by listening to the government behind the curtain.

As for the remaining two options of the "Gongdou Examination", the third prince and the prime minister, Su Qingxi can only guess out of thin air. The suspicion of the third prince is more serious. If there is no progress in these two days, she should choose A. After all, although the third prince He has mediocre qualifications, but he is still a prince. Throughout history, princes rebelled more than prime ministers.

Su Qingxi thought about it while walking towards Jinxiu Palace, probably because there were 'assassins' last night, there were many more Jinwu Guards patrolling than usual.

When passing through the imperial garden, a group of people walked towards them.

Concubine Ning and Concubine Qiu are hugging Empress Dowager Chen and talking and laughing.

Empress Dowager Chen is about 30 years old, with a delicate and well-maintained face. She looks only 30 years old, and she does not look old among several concubines.

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager." Su Qingxi hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Seeing that it was Su Qingxi, the smile on Empress Dowager Chen's face disappeared instantly, she hummed coldly, and walked straight in front of her.

The meaning of alienation is beyond words.

"Empress Dowager, I heard that the koi pond has sent a batch of new varieties, they are so beautiful..." Concubine Xian's voice came in an even tone.

"Really, let's accompany Ai's family to see..." Empress Dowager Chen's voice was filled with joy.

"Yes, Empress Dowager..."

After the group walked far away, Su Qingxi straightened up.

"Niang Niang." Huarui was afraid that Su Qingxi would feel wronged, so she wanted to comfort her.

"It's nothing." Su Qingxi said lightly, anyway, it's not the first time.

……

After the court, Ye Jiuqing entered the imperial study, and Li Decai came in quickly to report.

"Your Majesty, we have found a clue."

Ye Jiuqing gestured to him.

Li Decai immediately leaned over and whispered something in Ye Jiuqing's ear.

Ye Jiuqing's face became a little more dignified. The spies found clues from Empress Dowager Su that the man in black was actually Concubine Shu last night.

Su Ye held the military power and united with the Empress Dowager Su, which made him afraid at first, but now Concubine Shu is restless, climbing the wall and going out of the palace in the middle of the night to return to the Su Mansion, plotting something.

"Be sure to find out what she is doing out there." Ye Jiuqing said coldly.

"Yes." Li Decai responded, and then said, "There is news from Dali Temple that King Heng is willing to confess to his party, but he is willing to speak only if he has to meet the emperor in person."

King Heng is Ye Jiuqing's uncle. When the first emperor died, he tried to usurp the throne, but Ye Jiuqing led troops to capture him in time.

"I will go out of the palace myself tonight."

"Your majesty, please think twice. King Heng is suddenly willing to confess. I'm afraid his motives are not pure. If he colludes with his party to deliberately lure the emperor over? Isn't that dangerous?" Li Decai said.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. Besides, I suspect that he has planted people beside me. I just took this opportunity to remove them together." Ye Jiuqing said in a deep voice.

The emperor wants to use himself as bait.

……

After Su Qingxi returned to the Splendid Palace, she began to clean up all the things that the Fifth Prince had given her, including the jade pendant screen, a parrot and a cat.

"Miss, everything was destroyed, but Xiaobai never came back after sneaking out this morning." Huarui came in to report.

Xiaobai is a white Persian cat, also given by the Fifth Prince, and the original owner has raised it for three years.This cat was originally a pair, and the other cat is now being kept by the Queen Mother Su.

"Send the parrot out of the palace first, find a deserted mountain and release it. As for Xiaobai, let's wait until it comes back." Su Qingxi said.

"Yes, ma'am."

……

After nightfall, Ye Jiuqing changed into a black robe and went out of the palace to Dali Temple.

When the carriage reached Xuanwu Gate, suddenly arrows shot all over the sky.

Sure enough, there was an ambush, and the movement was not small.

"Take it!" Ye Jiuqing had been prepared for a long time, and with an order, the hidden guards hiding in the dark immediately counterattacked.

"Your Majesty, be careful on the left side!" Suddenly the guard Zhao Min shouted.

Ye Jiuqing raised his sword subconsciously and looked to the left.

Suddenly there was a pain in his right arm, and a sword pierced Ye Jiuqing's right arm.

"Escort..."

"Zhao Min, why is it you!" Ye Jiuqing put the sword on Zhao Min's neck with his backhand. He didn't expect that the person Heng Wang An put next to him was actually Zhao Min. This person has been with him for ten years and has been with him several times People who were born to die!
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry." Zhao Minhong focused her eyes, and after she finished speaking, she committed suicide by taking poison.

"Your Majesty, it's not good, there is poison on the sword."

Li Decai found that black blood gushed out of Ye Jiuqing's wound, obviously the sword was poisonous.

"Go back to the palace immediately." Ye Jiuqing covered the wound, but after a while, Ye Jiuqing felt dizzy and her head became dizzy.Ye Jiuqing gritted her teeth, and forced herself to confess, "Li Decai, block the news of my injury. If I am unconscious, I will leave the rest to my mother."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Ye Jiuqing finished explaining, she felt that her whole body was drained immediately, her eyes went dark, and she fell into a coma.

Li Decai hurriedly sent Ye Jiuqing back to the palace, and reported the situation to Queen Mother Chen.

Empress Dowager Chen turned livid with fright, and rushed to Qianqing Palace.
