Chapter 287 Defending the city (one more)
Zi Ye shook her head, unable to answer Zhou Gu.
He didn't know where Miss Su Qi and Young Master Ye Er went out of the city on such a late night, but he knew a little bit, and immediately said: "When they left, the city gate was closed, and Miss Su Qi left the city with the token of His Royal Highness the Prince."
Zhou Gu paused, since he was holding the token of the crown prince, he should not be returning to Nanchu this day.
He immediately ordered to Ziye, "Prepare the car, I'll go..."
He wanted to say that I went to the East Palace to ask the prince, but in the middle of speaking, he remembered something, then stopped, his face changed for a moment, discouraged, "That's all."
Now that his injury has not healed, even if he knows what they are going to do? What's the use? It's just a trip to the East Palace, just don't know.
He put down the file, simply didn't read it, closed his eyes and said, "Ziye, go down, don't bother with it."
Zi Ye nodded silently, helped Zhou Gu turn off the light, and walked out of the room.
Just as he was about to close the door, Zhou Gu suddenly said: "You take my grandmother's token and bring people to the gate of the city now. Bring more people. After they go out of the city, some people go out of the city. Except for His Majesty's token, the rest are all stopped in the city. I don't care what they are going to do. Since they go out of the city late at night, I don't want to follow them with their tails behind them."
Midnight should be.
Princess Sheng'an hasn't rested yet, she is talking about today's palace affairs with the old Huguogong. After she finished speaking, she sighed deeply, "Your Majesty's headache seems to have worsened, and now I really hope that His Majesty will be well. After all, the princes have not yet solved the mess. There are a lot of ghosts and snakes. He always needs to deal with these troublesome things. sound."
The old guard of the country was fair: "How can a benevolent king be so easy to do. If the crown prince can take over the current Liang, it may be a good thing. If the reputation is not famous, we will leave it to future generations to comment."
The eldest princess of Sheng'an snorted coldly, "Now you are saying such things, and I don't know who wants your grandson to be famous forever and be a famous official for a generation."
"Oh, what are you and I doing with this argument? The king is the king, and the minister is the minister. How can the king and the minister be the same?" The old guardian of the country was helpless.
"Ke Ke Ke, then you should think about it carefully!" The eldest princess Sheng'an didn't want to talk to the old protector. "Anyway, let me tell you, he has grown up. Whether it is for the country, the family or himself, he can be his own master and choose his own life. You should stop dictating him forcefully. Otherwise, I will never end with you."
The old Huguogong was not convinced, "All right, all right, he is your own grandson, not mine. You are doing him good, and I am harming him."
He murmured angrily, "If it wasn't because of my teaching since I was a child, this little brat would be regarded as a sweet potato by all of you? If you let him go, he might be a little **** in the military camp now. With his temperament, how can no one watch him?"
Princess Sheng'an didn't answer these words, she turned her head and planned to wash up and go to sleep.
At this time, Ziye asked to see him outside the door.
Princess Sheng An immediately walked to the door in two or three steps, opened the door, and asked Zi Ye, "Did something happen to Brother Gu?"
The old protector thought to himself, if he stays in the mansion well, what will happen, I am afraid that the news that Su Rong and Ye Guixue are out of the city has reached his ears, and he can't sit still.
Zi Ye shook his head, and told the words of Zhou Gu to Princess Sheng An.
Princess Sheng An quickly understood Zhou Gu's meaning after listening to it, and immediately took out the token and handed it to Zi Ye, "Go!"
Midnight thanked him, took the token and led the people to the gate of the city immediately.
The door of the room was closed, and Princess Sheng An guessed: "I left the city in the middle of the night, could it be that there are some clues about the case outside the city?"
It is not difficult to guess that Su Rongnan's identity as the Queen of Chu requires the support of the Crown Prince of Liang, and the Crown Prince has been in trouble for a long time, and the pain cannot be resolved. Someone needs to stir up the court situation, and then break the situation, and get the Crown Prince out of the predicament.
Old Huguo said: "Stinky boy, you really have grown up, and you have become more courageous."
He dared to come to his grandmother to get the token of the eldest princess, and everyone except His Majesty dared to stop him.
Princess Sheng An glared at him, "It's better than being timid at this point."
The Huguo Duke's Mansion has been a coward for many years, and kept a low profile with the prince. Now it's time to harden his bones again.
Ziye held the token of Princess Sheng'an, led five hundred soldiers, and together with the city guards, acted as stone pillars standing at the gate of the city.
The captain of the city gate, Jiang Ren, was stunned, and cupped his hands at Ziye, "Ziye, what are you...doing?"
Jiang Ren is in his twenties and is a descendant of a family.
"The Eldest Princess investigates the case, and orders no one to leave the city from now on, unless His Majesty orders it." Ziye patted Jiang Ren on the shoulder, "Captain Jiang, do you know that the Eldest Princess Sheng'an was in the palace during the day to investigate the case and was almost assassinated in public with the empress?"
Jiang Ren nodded, this matter has been spread all over the world now.
Zi Ye said in a low voice: "That's why, this case is too involved, even dare to kill Princess Sheng'an and the empress, it's too bold. Now the person behind the scenes is in the capital, and he can't let him go."
Jiang Ren suddenly became excited, "But not long ago, Master Ye Er, Miss Su Qi and her younger brother left the city together with their guards."
"They were also investigating the case. Miss Su Qi saved the Eldest Princess and Empress today." Zi Ye said.
Jiang Ren suddenly realized.
Zi Ye patted him on the shoulder again, "Lieutenant Jiang, cheer up!"
Jiang Ren cheered up immediately.
In the palace, the emperor took the sedative medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Xu, and his headache was relieved a lot. After Imperial Physician Xu left, he felt sleepy and didn't even approve the memorial, so he took a break early.
The queen heard that the emperor had passed on Doctor Xu, thinking about what had happened today, she was not at ease, so she went to the emperor's bedroom to visit the emperor.
When she arrived, she saw that precious concubine was stopped outside the palace by the emperor's maid, saying that the emperor had rested. The precious concubine's face remained unchanged, she was not unhappy because she was stopped, she said something to the female officer, the female officer hesitated.
At this moment, the queen came and asked with a smile: "So the concubine is here. Your Majesty is usually the most nervous about the concubine's body. In this cold weather, why doesn't the concubine rest in the palace?"
Concubine Zhengui covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed. After showing her respects to the queen, she said, "I heard that His Majesty announced the imperial physician. My sister is worried. Come here to take a look. Unexpectedly, His Majesty has already fallen asleep."
The queen said gently: "Your Majesty will be fine, otherwise Imperial Physician Xu will not leave the palace. Your Majesty is just too tired these days. Let Your Majesty rest for a few more days. Now that Your Majesty is asleep, you and I will not bother you. If your concubine can't sleep, can you go sit in the palace?"
Precious Concubine nodded, "What the Empress said is that the concubine has no heir under her knees, and the only one she can rely on is Your Majesty. I heard that His Majesty hired an imperial physician, and I was really worried. Now that I heard what the Empress said, I realized that I was too worried. Your Majesty is in his prime, and the dragon body is naturally fine."
She followed the good example and said: "The concubine made a false alarm. Since the queen invited me, the concubine will go to your palace to sit."
The Queen nodded.
So, the two phoenixes, one in front and the other behind, left the emperor's bedroom and went to the queen's Fengyi Hall.
