Chapter 181 Secret meeting with His Majesty
The court lady heard Officer Bai's conjecture and couldn't help but glance at her.

Luo Qianqing was also a little puzzled. Hearing Lady Bai's speculation, she nodded slightly, "Probably so... No one else will come to me..."

When the three looked at the back of the maid who was calling Luo Qianqing, the maid nodded with a slightly strange expression on her face, "Well... yes! Yes! Exactly!"

The lady's attitude behind her speech was slightly perfunctory, and Lady Bai and Lady Liu didn't notice anything, because they didn't pay much attention to the expression of the lady's speech, but Luo Qianqing noticed it, and immediately became suspicious.

However, she didn't think that the palace lady had any bad intentions for her. After all, Rong Yuan was still here, maybe Rong Yuan called her over in advance, and wanted to meet her after talking with Master Li?
Thinking of this, Luo Qianqing explained to the white lady officer Liu, and then left behind the maid.

The maid in front led Luo Qianqing to turn left and right in the courtyard, and stopped until she brought Luo Qianqing to a door, turned around and bowed respectfully to Luo Qianqing, "Luo Qianqing Madam, His Majesty is waiting for you inside."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Qianqing couldn't help being surprised.

The emperor actually came over?

And looking at the emperor like this, it seems that he didn't inform other people, but came here quietly!
Even when she came over quietly, the first person she saw was not someone else, but her?
After Luo Qianqing's eyes widened slightly, she deliberately retracted them. Maintaining the expression on her face, she nodded to the maid, and cautiously opened the door and entered the room.

"Your Majesty has met His Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live."

As soon as she entered the room, Luo Qianqing saw the figure of His Majesty standing by the window with her back facing her. Luo Qianqing took a few steps forward and knelt down towards His Majesty's back.

Hearing Luo Qianqing's voice, His Majesty the Emperor turned around and raised his hand towards Luo Qianqing.

"Don't be too polite, get up."

He pointed to the chair on one side for Luo Qianqing to sit down, while he sat opposite Luo Qianqing, looked at Luo Qianqing calmly and began to ask questions.

"Miss Luo, do you still remember the bet you made with me?"

When the emperor asked this question, Luo Qianqing's expression froze slightly.

She nodded, "I remember..."

But when the emperor suddenly mentioned this bet, Luo Qianqing couldn't help but mutter in his heart.When she met the emperor for the first time, both of them were worried about the fifth prince at the same time. Because they were in the fifth prince's house, the two made a bet on the surface, but they dipped it in tea in private. Another bet was written on the table.

At that time, the emperor had made an agreement with Luo Qianqing that Luo Qianqing would help him solve an old case.

As long as Luo Qianqing can solve this old case, the emperor will no longer obstruct the affairs between Luo Qianqing and the fourth prince, and will even remove the obstacles for them.

It's just that the emperor didn't clarify what the old case was at that time. Could it be that now... the emperor plans to reveal it?

Luo Qianqing was slightly agitated in her heart, and the emperor really spoke.

"I heard that you solved a case in the embassy of You Zhu Country, so the Second Commander of You Zhu Country has a strange Gu, is there such a thing?"

Having said that, a wry smile appeared on Luo Qianqing's face.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Second Lingzhu of the Youzhu Kingdom is indeed possessed by a strange Gu, but... the officer has not solved the case."

The emperor ignored Luo Qianqing's last sentence, and then asked, "You saw it with your own eyes at the scene, and describe the scene when the Gu broke out in detail for me."

"Yes!"

Luo Qianqing put away her frustration and described it in detail.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, when the Gu is not onset, it will only make people fall asleep, and there is no other reaction. However, after the onset, the black hair will turn into gorgeous hair, the skin and flesh on the body will become old and loose, and the skin will collapse. But it is a bit strange What's more...it seems that the timing of the attack of this Gu is not certain, for example, His Highness the Second Lingzhu of Youzhu Kingdom attacked it very slowly, but later, the guard Wang who accidentally attacked it happened in an instant under the eyes of everyone. "

Luo Qianqing's description was very careful, and His Majesty the Emperor listened very carefully.

But while speaking, Luo Qianqing's eyes fell on the emperor's hand.

His Majesty the emperor of the current Dayong Dynasty has always been deeply thoughtful, even if it is extremely happy and extremely angry, it is difficult to see the slightest clue from his face.However, at this time, Luo Qianqing noticed that His Majesty's hands were tightly grasping the armrests of the armchair, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.

Although nothing can be seen on His Majesty's face, but only these hands have revealed His Majesty's mood.

And this... is already His Majesty's reaction after exceeding his extreme anger!
A deep-minded person like him always pays attention to everything, and will not easily reveal his emotions.The slightest bit revealed at this time was enough to make Luo Qianqing feel startled.

After listening to Luo Qianqing's description, His Majesty the Emperor took a deep breath.

"If you still remember the bet I made with you, then you should be able to guess now that the case I want you to solve is related to this Gu."

Hearing the emperor's words, Luo Qianqing nodded, but subconsciously recalled what Rong Yuan said to herself before...

Rong Yuan said earlier that his mother's empress died of Gu poison...could it be...the old case in the mouth of the emperor is related to the death of the former empress?
Thinking of this, Luo Qianqing's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help becoming nervous.

Anything about the first queen is a taboo nowadays, not to mention the need to investigate the secret of the former queen's death!If people knew about it, Luo Qianqing would die immediately due to various strange reasons.

After all, the palace servants who served the former empress in the palace, even a foot-scratching servant beside the first empress, all died strangely after being sent out of the palace!
Originally, Luo Qianqing didn't know about this. The reason why she checked it out was because she once wondered why Rong Yuan was in such an embarrassing situation. This investigation also made Luo Qianqing understand, and she no longer Continue to go deeper.

Could it be... She really guessed right?
Luo Qianqing raised her head to look at His Majesty the Emperor, but at this moment His Majesty's expression looked very serious.

His voice became hoarse and dry, and his speaking speed became extremely slow.

"You have always been smart, and you must have guessed by now what the old case I want you to solve..."
