The shadow guard came back almost half an hour later.
It turned out that Concubine Rong was really sick, but because of Long Xiaoyuan's accession to the throne, Concubine Rong would naturally not be taken seriously, and because of this, the servants neglected her.
The servants neglected Concubine Rong, Concubine Rong herself had a mild temper, and she didn't care too much about herself as she was eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha in the palace all the year round.
If things go on like this, the servants will be even more negligent.
About ten days ago, Concubine Rong had a cold. It wasn't serious at first, but because her servants didn't take it seriously, she didn't even cook a bowl of ginger soup. Two days later, Concubine Rong's cold became severe.
A little maid in Concubine Rong's palace was going to invite the imperial doctor, but she didn't expect to encounter some other things on the way. It was almost time for imperial confinement when it was time to invite the imperial physician.
Therefore, the little maid did not go.
But he didn't expect that that night, Concubine Rong became very ill, and she was in a coma.
The two eunuchs and two palace maids in the whole palace were anxious now. They were worried that if the imperial physician was hired in the past, the higher-ups would investigate and he would be held accountable!
So, the four servants gave Concubine Rong random treatment.
After tossing and tossing all night, Concubine Rong couldn't tell whether it was better or something else. Anyway, the fever seemed to have subsided a little, but not completely.
Afraid of taking responsibility, the servants didn't mention the matter of inviting the imperial physician, but secretly made medicine and decocted it in the palace. Such a delay took half a month.
Then, just yesterday, Concubine Shan suddenly ran over for some reason.
Noble Concubine Shan immediately yelled when she saw Concubine Rong lying on the bed in a coma.
Concubine Shan caught the servants and asked them if they had invited the imperial physician.
The servants dare not say that they have not invited the imperial physician, they can only say that they have, but the imperial physician did not come.
Concubine Shan was furious... and then there was today's scene.
Long Xiaoyuan rubbed his eyebrows. "That's it? How many servants?"
Shi Qingzhou walked behind the opponent and helped him rub the eyebrows.
Long Xiaoyuan sighed. "Oh... what's the matter."
Shi Qingzhou said slowly: "I'll go to Concubine Rong's place. I always feel...it might be more than that simple."
Long Xiaoyuan nodded when he heard the words. "You can go and have a look, I can rest assured."
Shi Qingzhou smiled. "rest assured."
So, while Long Xiaoyuan was processing the memorial, Shi Qingzhou took people to Concubine Rong's place.
The servants were all arrested now, but they were not taken to the cell, but detained in Concubine Rong's palace.
Now, the few eunuchs and maids sent over are all newly trained.
After the diagnosis and treatment by the imperial physician, Concubine Rong has come to her senses.
She has been sleeping groggyly these days, and she doesn't actually know what happened. She just remembers that she seems to be very sad, but she doesn't remember if anyone has come to see her, but she can remember someone changing her handkerchief. Son, wipe yourself...
When Shi Qingzhou arrived, Concubine Rong wanted to stand up and salute, but Shi Qingzhou hurriedly stopped her.
"Toffee, you're welcome, just lie down."
Concubine Rong hurriedly said, "Thank you Queen."
Although Concubine Rong's voice was a bit hoarse, she seemed to have crawled out of the gate of hell.
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "The concubine should rest more, don't worry about those indifferent servants, the concubine."
Concubine Rong smiled wryly upon hearing this. "Those servants will be dealt with by the queen."
Shi Qingzhou nodded again. "Toffee take a good rest, the imperial physician will be here waiting for summons at any time."
"Well. Thank you Queen."
Shi Qingzhou went out of Concubine Rong's bedroom, and then went to the room where the servants were locked up.
Liu Xiangyang came here with the other party, before going in, Shi Qingzhou lightly gave instructions. "Separate people and lock them up."
Liu Xiangyang immediately went in to make arrangements, and soon, the four people were all separated.
Shi Qingzhou walked to the room where the little maid who was supposed to go to the imperial physician but didn't go was imprisoned...
While Shi Qingzhou was interrogating the servants, Long Xiaoyuan was processing the memorial in the study.
At this time, a shadow guard came to report that Zhou Huan and Zhou Yu'er had met each other, and they were now going to the outskirts of the city together.
"Huh? Outskirts of the city?" Long Xiaoyuan raised his brows. "What are you going to do in the outskirts of the city?"
"They went to Nanshan." The shadow guard reported.
"Huh? Went to Nanshan?" Long Xiaoyuan frowned. "What's on Nanshan?"
"The subordinates don't know for the time being."
"Come on and see what they're doing."
"Yes." The shadow guard took the order to retreat.
Long Xiaoyuan rubbed his chin and muttered to himself. "What are they going to do in Nanshan? There's nothing on it except the jungle..."
Frowning, Long Xiaoyuan decided to put this question aside. Anyway, with shadow guards watching, I believe there will be no major problems.
But when it was almost lunch time, Long Xiaoyuan became a little worried when Shi Qingzhou still hadn't come back.
"The queen went to Concubine Rong and hasn't come back yet?"
"Report to the emperor, not yet."
Long Xiaoyuan frowned. "Go and see if something happened."
"Yes." An eunuch took the order and hurried to go.
About half an hour later, Shi Qingzhou finally came back, and Long Xiaoyuan rushed to meet him.
"Why did you come back?"
Shi Qingzhou said: "Although those servants can see that they have unified the caliber, they are not very right. I separated them and asked something from their mouths."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Those servants really have problems?"
"En." Shi Qingzhou nodded. "A few nails were found, and now they are handed over to the shadow guards. They haven't been removed yet, so let's see who they will find for those nails."
"Well, I can rest assured that I leave this matter to you."
Shi Qingzhou walked towards the study, Long Xiaoyuan followed. "what are you up to?"
Shi Qingzhou said: "Prepare something."
Long Xiaoyuan watched curiously, and saw Shi Qingzhou wrote two letters.
"This letter is for your father, I understand...but who is it for outside the palace?"
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. "For the Tianji Building."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan was a little surprised, "For Tianji Building? What are you doing?"
"Those nails send information to the outside. I want Tianjilou to follow the vine. Now that the two parties are cooperating, our manpower is a bit inconvenient, but those people in Tianjilou have no problem." Shi Qingzhou explained.
Long Xiaoyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. "Use it and use it, tsk tsk, it's unlucky for Tianjilou to meet you."
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. "No, in recent years, the Tianji Building has attracted a lot of wind. If it provokes the court again, there is no need for it to exist."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan was a little puzzled.
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. "Tianjilou is not a fool. Intelligence organizations are taboo, and naturally they offend many people. If Tianjilou hadn't always been a good person, I'm afraid they would have been targeted by all parties. This time, we took the initiative to seek their cooperation. Let's see It sounds like coercion, but if it is favored by the imperial court and has the imperial court's permission, then Tianjilou will not be afraid of other forces in the arena."
"Well... yes." Long Xiaoyuan touched his chin. "Is it the emperor's land in the whole world? Tianjilou really needs to find a big backer, and the imperial court will undoubtedly be the best choice. In addition to Tianjilou's own ability in the rivers and lakes...Qingzhou, your brain is better."
After sending out both letters, Shi Qingzhou smiled at Long Xiaoyuan. "Is the emperor hungry?"
"Hey, if you don't tell me, I'd have forgotten that it's already past lunch time!"
"Hehe." Shi Qingzhou smiled. "Then let's go eat."
"Okay!" Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou's hand and walked outside...
Ten days later, something was found in the bombed-out secret room of the Liu family.
It was a roster, and this roster was actually the location of some house exchanges in various parts of the Celestial Dynasty.
Hu Qingyuan worked tirelessly day and night to find this list in the secret room of Liu's house. For this list of houses, Hu Qingyuan was exhausted.
In the morning, Long Xiaoyuan rewarded Hu Qingyuan, and let the other party's position as a servant be justified.
In addition, a lot of gold, silver and jewelry were rewarded.
The roster of people was under Qiu Ming's army, and the houses where each location was located were excavated. If there were people in the house, they were all arrested and investigated.
A large amount of sulfur was found in the ground of those houses.
And Shi Qingzhou took out the map, and suddenly found that those houses are located in the Celestial Dynasty, and they can be connected into a marching route!
There are routes from both inside and outside the city. It can be seen that those houses were not randomly chosen to bury the sulfur!
Shi Qingzhou has calculated that according to this route, if Dongye Kingdom detonates after launching a war, it will bring a lot of obstacles to the reinforcements!
However, in addition to the house, are there also these obstacles on the road
When Long Xiaoyuan asked this question, Shi Qingzhou immediately said: "There is a possibility, but don't worry, people move regularly during the march, and if you are cautious, even an explosion will not cause too many casualties. So rest assured."
Long Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good..."
The sulfur in those houses had been dug out, and several groups of killers had blocked them, but in front of the army, those killers were useless no matter how powerful they were.
In the end, the sulfur dug up in the whole world can be counted by one ton.
"If so much sulfur is used well...hehe, it's enough for them to eat a pot." Long Xiaoyuan sneered.
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "That's right."
"Qingzhou, since they have sent us so many good things, it would be a shame not to take advantage of them. However, our trade routes need to be rectified. So much sulfur has been transported from Dongye Kingdom. It's because no one noticed it, tsk tsk, if it wasn't for some accidental factors that made us notice this, now... "
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "You're right, it really needs to be rectified."
"Qingzhou, I think you must have been thinking about this rectification these days?"
"En." Shi Qingzhou nodded.
Long Xiaoyuan smiled slightly, "Then make a charter. We should focus on discussing it in the morning."
"Aren't you afraid that those ministers will obey you?"
Long Xiaoyuan sneered when he heard this. "If they still dare to obey and disobey in this kind of matter, they will take as many heads as they want!"
Seeing Long Xiaoyuan's bold words, the cold light in his eyes flickered, Shi Qingzhou slightly raised the corners of his mouth, feeling that Long Xiaoyuan at this moment fascinated him a little.
More than two months later, the entire celestial dynasty, from the common people to the people in the rivers and lakes, knew that the imperial court was vigorously rectifying the trade routes.
Some caravans involved in smuggling were even uprooted by the court!
However, outsiders don't know what those caravans were caught smuggling. Only Long Xiaoyuan and others who know the inside story know that these caravans are related to the smuggling of sulfur from Dongye Kingdom!
Such a caravan has captured five or six companies in the past two months! There are still a few more to check!
Those who have never done anything wrong, are still just trembling with fear, and those who have done something wrong, I am afraid that they will not even want to sleep at night!
And now, two months later, a major event has also ushered in the palace.
That is, the little prince canonized as the prince, and it is his first birthday!
The crown prince is one year old, so this must be a special event. Therefore, in this time of panic, this is considered a happy event. Moreover, it can also make many people relax.
God knows these days, those ministers who are facing are also very sad.
Some officials who were caught by the caravan were also removed, so can people not panic
So, now the court has really cleared up more than half of it!
Today, it is very lively.
The little guy probably knows what a lively day it is today, so he was very happy when he woke up in the morning.
However, on such a big day, one must beware of making trouble, but all the nails in the palace have been watched by the shadow guards.
In addition, the number of shadow guards arranged beside the little guy is also very large.
Long Xiaoyuan hugged the little guy in a fancy dress, the little guy probably felt a little restrained, and pulled his clothes not too happily, Long Xiaoyuan hurriedly hugged the other's hand and pulled.
"Ah, baby, bear with it, it will be fine after today!"
The little guy curled his lips, as if he was not very happy.
Shi Qingzhou chuckled. "I'll give you a hug."
Hearing this, the little guy immediately stretched out his arms towards Shi Qingzhou.
Shi Qingzhou carried the child out. "Will this little guy make trouble when we sacrifice to heaven later?"
"If he makes trouble, he will be spanked." Long Xiaoyuan said viciously.
Shi Qingzhou's mouth twitched slightly.
Long Xiaoyuan patted his son's head. "Did you hear that? At that time, Jitian is not allowed to pee or anything!"
Shi Qingzhou laughed "puchi". "He doesn't understand?"
"No, I think he must understand!"
"Will it?" Shi Qingzhou didn't quite believe it.
Long Xiaoyuan pinched the little guy's face. "Come on, baby, tell Father, you don't understand."
The little guy chuckled, as if he knew everything.
Long Xiaoyuan was very proud. "Look, he understands."
Shi Qingzhou rolled his eyes and said nothing.
After the family of three warmed up for a while, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou also made preparations themselves.
When offering sacrifices to heaven, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou walked up to the altar holding hands.
The manager Zhou Qing hugged the crown prince Long Huan and followed behind them.
However, Zhou Qing stood still on the last step with the child in his arms and did not go forward.
At the beginning of the sacrifice to heaven, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou kowtowed, followed by all the officials below.
When the high priest read the sacrificial oration, Long Xiaoyuan looked at the top altar and the statue on it with a serious expression.
After the sacrificial text was read aloud, Liu Xiangyang stood in front of the crowd and announced the decree.
Zhou Qing stood in front of Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou holding the child.
At this moment, the title of Prince Longhuan was officially determined.
At night, there was a lot of toasting.
A banquet was held in the palace to celebrate the prince's first birthday.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou held the prince to attend the banquet, during which all the ministers toasted. Long Xiaoyuan drank two cups.
Shi Qingzhou only had a drink, and then left with the child in his arms after a third of the banquet.
A quarter of an hour after Shi Qingzhou left, Long Xiaoyuan rubbed his head, and finally made a toast to all the ministers, and then left too?
After leaving the banquet hall, Long Xiaoyuan stopped rubbing his forehead, so two glasses of wine can't do anything to him!
He took the sedan chair and went directly to Kunning Palace, where Shi Qingzhou had already made hangover soup and was waiting for him.
"Hehe, I only drank three or four cups, what hangover soup do I need?"
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. "The child is asleep. It will make you feel better after drinking sober soup."
"That's true." Without rejecting his queen's kindness, Long Xiaoyuan drank all the hangover soup.
Seeing the bitter face of the other party, Shi Qingzhou smiled. "This is just soup, not medicine, why are you so frowning?"
Long Xiaoyuan curled his lips. "It doesn't taste good."
Shi Qingzhou smiled. "Why are you like a child?"
Long Xiao stared at people from afar. "Do grown-ups like to eat bad food?"
"Er..." Shi Qingzhou was a little speechless.
Long Xiaoyuan didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, he stepped forward and put his arms around the waist of the other party. "Qingzhou... it's time for us to rest
Shi Qingzhou paused slightly, and looked towards Long Xiaoyuan.
Although he said "rest", but the other party's eyes were shining, but there was a desire to eat people.
Shi Qingzhou's ears felt hot. "you… "
Long Xiaoyuan almost rushed towards Shi Qingzhou, holding Shi Qingzhou's waist, and carried him to the bedroom...
"There are still people..." Shi Qingzhou struggled.
Long Xiaoyuan said: "It's okay... No matter what they do, they will naturally retreat..."
Emotional, unbearable.
Heartbeat, for love.
Love, just because the person in front of me is Shi Qingzhou, who is my beloved...
When the love was deep, Long Xiaoyuan hugged each other tightly... as if he couldn't hug her enough...
