After listening to the explanation, the queen finally understood what was going on. Seeing that the people were living well, she stopped asking questions and just showed concern for their injuries.
"The imperial physician has come to see you. How are your injuries?"
Si Xia was somewhat touched and answered, "Your Majesty, we are all fine, except Si Yin, who will probably need a long time to recover from her injuries."
In fact, Si Xia and the others were a little worried. After all, they existed to serve the Queen, but now they were injured and it was such an urgent moment.
The queen looked at the expression on Si Xia's face and smiled: "Don't worry, just focus on healing. Your injuries are relatively minor. I'll give you three days."
"Come back to serve me in three days. As for Si Yin, wait until her injuries are healed before coming back to serve me. During this time, a second-class maid will take over."
"Come back when you're healed."
The Queen's words undoubtedly guaranteed the positions of Si Xia and the others. They were very grateful to the Queen. After talking to the palace maid.
The queen returned to her own bedroom. Seeing the emperor staring blankly with his eyes wide open in boredom, the queen couldn't help but laugh: "Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?"
The emperor saw the queen coming back, and then he smiled: "How is Yin'er?"
The queen was even happier when she heard the emperor's concern for Yin'er: "Yin'er is well protected and has no idea about the chaos tonight."
"Your Majesty, you are injured. You should have a good rest today. I think Prime Minister Gu will take care of the morning court affairs. Go to sleep."
The emperor pulled the queen and said, "Come up here, stand beside me. I have something to say to you."
The queen did not object, but lay down beside the emperor and asked, "What does your majesty want to say to me?"
The emperor thought for a moment before speaking: "Actually, what I want to talk to you about is Xiaoman's problem. Don't believe what Lin Chuwan said."
"Actually, I don't know when I realized that I might not be that obsessed with Xiaoman. I still can't figure it out."
"What exactly are my feelings towards Xiaoman? Do you say I like her? But I am not jealous at all that Gu Xiangning can be with Xiaoman."
The queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you don't need to explain. I am not interested in Xiaoman's problem, but I believe in you and Xiaoman."
"I will not be affected by Lin Chuwan's words. Besides, Xiaoman is not someone else."
The emperor was stunned by the words "Xiao Man is not someone else": "What do you mean Xiao Man is not someone else?"
The queen was stunned for a moment, but she still spoke: "I'm not afraid that the emperor will be angry. In my heart, Xiaoman seems to be more important!"
When the emperor heard this, he almost vomited blood! What does this mean? In the queen's heart, it's fine that her son is more important than her father, but how come Xiaoman is more important than him
By this calculation, there are also the Queen's mother, Lin Zezhi, and even the Queen Mother, etc. What is his rank
The emperor said that his heart ached, and he looked at the queen gloomily: "I never thought that one day I would be jealous of Xiaoman. Queen, tell me, where am I in your heart?"
The queen smiled and said, "Before, the emperor was in my heart. Now the emperor is in my heart. Okay, emperor, you are tired, take a rest!"
This made the emperor confused. Aren't the heart and the mind the same? Of course, the heart the queen was talking about was the emperor's whole heart.
And now the emperor is just one of the many people in the queen's heart! The emperor only feels that his road to chasing his wife is long and it is really heartbreaking.
As the emperor was thinking, he fell asleep. The queen looked at the emperor sleeping, squinted her eyes and smiled, then leaned against the emperor and rested together.
The eunuch announced a break for the morning court session that day and the news that the emperor was assassinated in the palace also spread on the same day.
It also caused a shock to the whole world. Who on earth was so bold as to dare to assassinate the emperor? Kyoto had long been sealed off in order to hunt down the murderer.
Kyoto was sealed off, and the people all knew that something big had happened. The Qi family also received the news. The three generations of the Qi family, grandfather and grandson, were all in the study.
Qi Chengyuan looked at his grandfather: "Grandpa, should we go ask the master if this assassin is the master?"
Elder Qi sighed, "News came from the palace that Lin Chuwan died last night. Before she died, she was with an assassin who was trying to kill the emperor. Who else could it be besides the master?"
When Qi Chengyuan heard this, his face changed drastically: "What should we do now?"
Elder Qi frowned and looked at his grandson: "It's such a small matter, why are you so panicked? What else can we do?"
Qi Chengyuan calmed down after being yelled at by Elder Qi. He looked at Elder Qi and said, "Then Grandpa, what do we need to do now is to hide our master?"
Elder Qi sighed and said, "What's the point of hiding? Find a chance to ask the master. It's best to listen to what the master says at this time."
"Remember, don't act on your own, okay?"
At this time, Gu Xiangning and Lin Zezhi were both in the palace. The emperor had woken up and looked energetic. It was unlike the news that had spread that the emperor was seriously injured.
"Lord Gu, you and Lord Lin are making a fuss out of nothing! We all know who the murderer is, yet you're still making such a big fuss about sealing off the city."
Gu Xiangning rolled his eyes: "If not, how can others believe that you are really injured? In this way, how can others think that he can seize this opportunity?"
The emperor was quite depressed: "Do you really think I'm that stupid? To be honest, it would be better to hang Lin Chuwan's body on the wall and catch her in a jar."
Gu Xiangning blinked his eyes: "Your Majesty, do you really think so? She is your concubine? Are you willing to give her up? Are you so cruel?"
The emperor chuckled and said, "Is this cruel? Besides, this is the fastest way, isn't it? What's more, I just want to teach him a lesson this time."
"A family that dares to rebel must have a strong background. We need to investigate the Li family thoroughly. Lord Gu, I will leave this matter to you, Mingyue Island."
Gu Xiangning nodded: "I obey your order."
Lin Zezhi was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses: "Mingyue Island, is that Mingyue Island? It turns out that Xiangning, you are from Mingyue Island."
"No wonder you were able to defeat Ningguo so quickly. I remember Ningguo said Mingyue Island supported them."
Seeing Lin Zezhi's expression, the emperor and Gu Xiangning both laughed and looked at Lin Zezhi: "Lord Lin, then the matter of hanging Lin Chuwan on the city wall will be left to you."
Speaking of which, Lin Chuwan is Lin Zezhi's half-sister. After the emperor completes this mission, will Lin Zezhi be able to find a wife in the future
Gu Xiangning blinked his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, it's not right to be afraid of death like this. After all, Lin Chuwan is Zezhi's sister."
Lin Zezhi frowned and said, "I don't have a sister like this. To be honest, I have wanted to do this for a long time!"
Gu Xiangning rolled his eyes: "Zezhi, aren't you worried that you won't be able to find a wife? If you really do this, I'm afraid all the women in the city will think you are a monster."
Lin Zezhi laughed: "I have no interest in such a woman!"
Gu Xiangning thought about it and it was true. Their women were not the type to be scared. If Lin Zezhi really found such a woman.
Afraid that they would have no common topics in the future, he stopped caring about it. Lin Zezhi immediately took Lin Chuwan's body and hung it above the city gate.
By the way, he said to the people below: "This is the evil Lin Chuwan who tried to assassinate the emperor. Now I will hang the body of Lin Chuwan at the city gate to be exposed to the sun for three days..."
After finishing reading it, Lin Zezhi went to prepare manpower. After all, if he wanted to catch the turtle in the urn instead of giving his body to others, then strength was indispensable.
What happened at the city gate soon caused a sensation in Kyoto. The Qi family naturally also received the news. Lord Qi looked at Qi Chengyuan.
"I didn't expect that the emperor was really angry this time and would be so cruel. Go find the master now. Remember, tell the master not to be impulsive."
Qi Chengyuan nodded, then set out from the Qi family and came to the inn where Li Ziqing was staying. He looked at Li Ziqing sitting in the room in a daze.
Obviously, the master has not gone out since Lin Chuwan died, so he didn't know the news yet and sighed.
Qi Chengyuan had no intention of hiding it, and looked at Li Ziqing: "Master, are you okay?"
Li Ziqing came back to his senses and looked at Qi Chengyuan: "Why is Chengyuan here? I'm fine, I'm just a little angry. That dog emperor..."
Seeing Li Ziqing in this state, Qi Chengyuan sighed: "Master, things are not going well. The emperor is going to expose Miss Lin Chuwan's body to the sun at the city gate for three days..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Li Ziqing clenching his hands and his eyes were red; "Mu Yexing, how dare he..."
After all, they had a relationship before, how dare he do that? How could he do that? This Mu Yexing was much more heartless than he had imagined, Qi Chengyuan looked at Li Ziqing.
He was so scared that he didn't dare to say a word and cold sweat broke out. After waiting for a long time, Li Ziqing calmed down and became calm.
It's just that Qi Chengyuan feels that Li Ziqing's temperament has changed. Now, well, how should I put it! He used to be a very gentle gentleman.
Now he became a little gloomy, swallowed his saliva, and listened to Li Ziqing's words; "Who is the person who carried out this matter?"
"I want him to die without a burial place!"
Qi Chengyuan was relieved when he heard Li Ziqing speak: "This matter was carried out by Lin Zezhi. You know Lin Zezhi, right?"
"The Emperor's new favorite, the Queen's brother, and actually he's Miss Lin's brother!"
Li Ziqing sneered: "I know this person. It is most important to get Chu Wan's body back first. I will never allow Chu Wan's body to be exposed to the sun for three days."
Qi Chengyuan had expected this before, so he could only nod and say, "I know. Grandpa has already arranged for someone to take care of this matter, but Master, you can't show up."
