Yushufang.
As soon as Quxiang came out of the palace, he was intercepted by the person who delivered the decree in the palace before he reached the palace, and then returned. Prime Minister Qu deliberately asked the imperial palace staff what was going on, but with a secretive expression, the palace staff turned and hurried away without saying anything.
Prime Minister Qu was a little puzzled, carefully recalling the events of the recent period, and he had nothing to do with him. I guessed all the way until I stepped into the imperial study room and saw Canghaihuang's gloomy face, but my heart didn't feel anxious.
Guo Quan had no sense of presence in the huge Imperial Study Room, and he even relaxed his breathing a lot. He glanced at Prime Minister Qu from the corner of his eye, and then returned to his original state.
Before Prime Minister Qu asked, Canghaihuang said in a painful voice: "Quxiang, Concubine Yu was suddenly ill and died suddenly."
Concubine Yu is the first-in-law sister of Prime Minister Qu's wife, and is also an aid to Prime Minister Qu's standing in the court. Hearing this news suddenly, the first thing that happened to Prime Minister Qu's mind was that this matter must have something to do with the emperor.
Sudden death is rare in the palace, and all the empresses in the harem are pampered all day long. It is absolutely impossible to suddenly die. The only possibility is that the emperor executed Yu Guifei for this reason.
There is also a semi-public practice in the harem, which is basically used by most people involved in the ulterior secrets of being exterminated.
Seeing Prime Minister Qu, the Emperor Canghai said in deep thought, "Tell Madam Qu, our grief. Concubine Yu has won my heart and intends to pursue the title of the emperor concubine. I will instruct the Ministry of Rites to deal with all the funeral matters."
"Thanks to the emperor's kindness." Prime Minister Qu didn't care about Yu Xiangxiang's funeral. He could not see any emotions of anger, pity, or even pity from the face of Canghaihuang, except for calm.
Prime Minister Qu has been immersed in the officialdom for many years, and he is also in the position of prime minister, and he is insightful about the intrigue of the harem. As for Yu Xiangxiang to be a noble concubine, obviously he is not a good person. There are not many people who can make her die suddenly. Could it be...
"It happened suddenly today, too late for treatment in the hospital." The pretended regret was also a pity. Prime Minister Qu also said hypocritically, and then he was taken out of the Imperial Study Room.
The Minister of Etiquette walked in a hurry, and walked face to face with Qu Xiang. The tune did not see him, and he passed straight ahead without saying a word, not even giving a look at him.
He was simply ignored.
The Minister of Etiquette is the elder brother of a sincere concubine. The former officials and the concubines of the harem are inextricably linked. This is also a means of balancing the emperors of the past dynasties.
When the attendant of the Ministry of Rites learned that Yu Guifei had died suddenly, his heart felt like a ray of light. My sister has been in the position of a concubine for a long time, and it is time to rise up appropriately. Now that she has a position, it is a matter of course.
"The emperor, the minister must do his best."
"Well, the decree will go to the Ministry of Rites later, and we must do it seriously." The servant of the Ministry of Rites agreed, and his brisk footsteps were the opposite of Prime Minister Qu.
When Prime Minister Qu went back, how to communicate with his wife, leaving aside for the time being, he returned to the Beiyuan Palace.
Ming Jiuge sent a beast to look for evidence, but found nothing. Xiao Beiyuan judged that there should be no news about the assassins, and coupled with the street assassination, the news must be spread extremely quickly, and soon the master behind the scenes will sweep his tail and save himself.
Ming Jiuge simply doesn't care about it, and the emperor's siege is the most attractive thing to her at the moment.
She was wondering how to get Xiao Beiyuan to agree to let her follow, and Wanwan rushed in from the outside, and said mysteriously: "Miss, you are ready to follow along."
"Where's the news?"
"Listening to the guards, the prince ordered Skeleton to follow you at all times."
Ming Jiuge curled his lips, "That doesn't mean to walk around."
"Miss, see you are anxious, you can't allow people to take a breath, I haven't finished speaking." Wanwan was really panting, just now Ming Jiuge only looked at the line and didn't find it.
Wanwan took a sip of the waterway: "The prince ordered the skull pupil to protect the young lady's safety during the siege."
"Is it true?"
Wanwan nodded as if pounding garlic, "It's true."
"That's great, it won't take any effort."
In fact, Ming Jiuge has seen a lot of scenery. She has traveled all over the world in another continent. She has seen all kinds of scenery and customs, which can be said to be well-informed. But this life is different, and my heart is desolate by staying in these two small places all day.
Ming Jiuge hummed his joy today. Both Tiaowanwan and Xiaoqing were familiar with this tune, and they could follow along with a sentence or two. According to the tune, they judged that their lady was in a good mood.
"Miss, you should keep a low profile. What if the prince changes his mind?"
"He dare!" After thinking about it, Xiao Beiyuan is the prince, so what's the matter
What is it that he dare not
Thinking of this, the joy passed, and his face drooped again.
"Miss, you might as well just ask the prince what you mean."
"What if he refuses?"
Xiaoqing felt that her own lady had become less courageous.
Just ask, what's so great, he doesn't know how to eat people anyway. Just think about it and go straight to Xiao Beiyuan's study.
Xiao Beiyuan came to the visitor, listening to the voice, he seemed to be a woman. The woman's voice was crisp and sharp, and she knew she was a beautiful woman.
Ming Jiuge felt a little unhappy at once, even though she tried her best to tell herself not to be jealous, and based on her understanding of Xiao Beiyuan, he would never close the door and get involved with an unclear woman in her study, wanting to come. Have a business talk.
But then again, can't you open the door or take other ways to avoid suspicion
"Miss..."
Wanwan looked at Ming Jiuge’s expression on his face, and he knew it was going to be bad, so he didn’t talk about it long ago, but at this moment, he was talking about circumstance, and he bumped into the prince...
"Let's go back."
Ming Jiuge is full of laughter now, and she even makes up for Xiao Beiyuan's cheerful expression.
"Miss, that's not the way back to the room."
"Go back anywhere."
What I meant by going back was such an explanation. The two looked at each other and knew that no matter how they persuaded, the temper of the lady would definitely come to light.
"Go back!" Go back again? Before Wanwan and Xiaoqing knew where they were going back, they heard Ming Jiuge say again: "The snack is over, I'm going to send it to the study."
what? Spoiler? Is this suitable
"What are you doing in a daze? Could it be that you two know something?"
"I'll get some snacks." Wanwan ran to the kitchen, Xiaoqing looked at the smile on her lips, and said weakly: "Miss, you... the lord should be talking about business.... .. "
"Well, that's why I went to give him a snack."
In this state, where is the gift of snacks, it is clearly the gift of knives.
Bend your legs and feet very fast, this is related to the happiness of your own lady, and it is not sloppy in the slightest.
"Miss, here comes the snack."
Ming Jiuge took a look, and didn't give her a dry dish. Yes, she admired Wanwan with a perfect look, and headed towards the study with a refreshing look.
