County Lord Changning

Chapter 524 The Princess Has Arrived
"His Royal Highness! Your Royal Highness!" At this time, Li Fugui's anxious voice came from outside the door, and then he saw Li Fugui rushing in from outside the hall, knelt down in front of Qin Changning, and shouted, "Your Highness, Your Majesty invites you to go over, in Xiangning Palace, His Majesty is about to die!"

Qin Changning glanced at Li Fugui, and Li Fugui raised his eyes to look at Qin Changning, with eagerness in his eyes, but it was not the kind of eagerness that worried about the death of the emperor, but... Qin Changning stood up, looked at Li Fugui, " Eunuch Li, you..."

"Princess, please go with this old slave!" Li Fugui said with tears streaming from his eyes, "The emperor fell down when he came out of Xiangning Palace. If you don't go, I'm afraid you will really die. !"

"What do you mean by that?" Sima Chen and Sima Ningrou, who were at the entrance of Dao Huiru Hall just now, stepped in. Sima Chen grabbed Li Fugui from the ground and asked in a deep voice, "What is lifeless?" What happened! Father, what happened to him?"

Sima Ningrou also looked at Sima Jiao, who pursed her lips and said, "It seems that something went wrong with the imperial grandmother."

On the way, Li Fugui glanced at Qin Changning several times. Qin Changning glanced at Li Fugui with a frown, and suddenly quickened his pace, throwing Sima Jiao and others behind him a few feet away. She looked at Li Fugui and asked in a deep voice, "Li Fugui?" Father-in-law, do you have something to tell me?"

Li Fugui glanced at Qin Changning worriedly, and said in a low voice, "Princess, in fact, you don't need to go to Xiangning Palace, the old slave will take you to the gate of the palace later, you should leave first, the palace can't stay any longer, If you stay here, there will only be bad luck."

A trace of surprise flashed in Qin Changning's eyes. She looked at Li Fugui, frowned slightly, and asked with a faint smile, "If Eunuch Li sends me away, and the emperor blames you, what will you do?"

Li Fugui smiled, and said lightly, "This old slave has served two emperors. At this age, it is worthwhile to die in the palace. The princess doesn't have to worry about this old slave."

An imperceptible touch flashed in Qin Changning's eyes, and she smiled, "There is one thing Changning doesn't understand. Changning and Eunuch Li don't have much contact with each other. Why do you want to help Changning?"

"The princess is joking, how can this old slave help you?" Li Fugui glanced at Qin Changning, and said, "The princess helped the old slave a few times even though it was unintentional, although the princess can't remember But this old slave still remembers it in his heart." Li Fugui suddenly stopped and looked at Qin Changning, and said in a low voice, "Also, Your Royal Highness, when I was a child, I loved listening to this old slave by my side when I was young."

Qin Changning's heart moved slightly, and he smiled slightly, "Thank you, father-in-law, for still thinking about my concubine mother. There is probably only one father-in-law in this palace who still misses the concubine mother's kindness when she was a child."

Li Fugui smiled, looked at Qin Changning, and lowered his voice, "The slave has already made arrangements, the princess only needs to go out through the east gate, and someone will guide you away immediately."

……

Concubine Xiao Shu sat next to the emperor in the Xiangning Palace, wiped the blood from the corner of the emperor's mouth with a handkerchief, and asked Li Yuanshou, who had already checked, "What is in Li Yuanshou's teacup, and what is in the inventory?" What's next? Your Majesty is here, I think you won't lie."

Li Yuanshou glanced at the teacup, then at the dim sum, and sighed, "There is Huoxiangyin in the teacup. It's okay for ordinary people to eat this kind of thing, but people with Gu worms in their bodies will eat the Gu worms inside." They are all attracted, the emperor is poisoned by Gu, this kind of Gu is mature ice worms and fire worms, these two kinds of insects are ice and heat intersecting in the body, people who have been infected by these two kinds of Gu poison will die in pain .”

The emperor stared at the pale queen mother with wide eyes, and trembled for a long time before speaking, "Mother queen...why did you harm me so much! Didn't you say that! Zhen is the son you care about the most... !"

Concubine Xiao Shu's eyes are also red, she really loves the emperor, she gave her whole youth to the emperor, the emperor also treats her very well, they used to be like glue, now they cherish each other even more, although the queen mother has never liked herself very much, But she can bear it for the sake of the emperor, don't provoke her, don't contradict her, but now she even wants to kill her own son!
"The Ai family said, it's not the Ai family!" The queen mother stood up coldly, suddenly she was startled, looked at the emperor suddenly, her hands trembled, "Emperor! Do you still remember that we heard someone in this hall?"

"Catch the assassin!" The Queen Mother said suddenly, "There must be an assassin! Hurry up and catch the assassin!"

The emperor also thought of this, and sat up suddenly, but just sat up and fell down. Seeing the emperor, Concubine Xiao Shu couldn't help crying again. She helped the emperor to stand up, and stared at the queen mother. , said in a deep voice, "President Li also said that it is Gu poison, and it will take a long time to feed! That means, Empress Dowager, you have already been poisoned by that Gu insect in the emperor's body! You have deliberately wanted to Kill the emperor!"

"What good will the Ai family kill the emperor for the Ai family!" The queen mother's face darkened, and she looked at Concubine Xiao Shu coldly. The queen mother has stayed in the palace for decades, and her face is so dark that she is more scary than the emperor. One glance made Concubine Xiao Shu shrink back, she looked at Concubine Xiao Shu, "The Ai family killed the emperor, and there is no one to be the emperor, can the Ai family still hold the position of the queen mother firmly!"

"Why not!" Concubine Xiao Shu was also fearless at this time. She stood up suddenly and looked at the queen mother, "The emperor is dead, and your other son will have a chance to be emperor! Isn't it!"

The emperor suddenly looked at the queen mother, who clasped both hands and said in a deep voice, "If this is the case, the Ai family would not have supported the emperor to ascend the throne back then!"

"When you supported the emperor to ascend the throne, your other son was still a baby in the swaddle. You did this only to strengthen your position! Let the emperor help your other son to keep the throne! Otherwise, why has he not wanted it for so many years?" The fief has never been far away from the capital, and has been guarding it here!"

The queen mother was stunned, she looked at Concubine Xiao Shu and the emperor in surprise, she didn't expect that she just didn't want her son to stay away from her, but she didn't expect that her soft heart at the beginning brought disaster to herself, she looked at Concubine Xiao Shu's eyes flickering Looking at the shining light, she sneered, it seemed that she, an old woman, was doomed to end her life here today.

"you…."

"You are enough!" Qin Changning walked in from the outside in two steps, and looked coldly at the ministers standing in the hall, "The most urgent thing now is the emperor's body, not here to argue about who is right and who is wrong." Qin Changning said indifferently Glancing at the queen mother, turned to look at the emperor, then looked at Li Yuanshou and said in a deep voice, "Teacher, is it poisoning?"
