Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king Chapter 54 A killing spree! Clean up the Shangshi Bureau! First pull out the teeth of this bitch who planned to kill the Queen Mother!
Chapter 54 A killing spree! Clean up the Shangshi Bureau! First pull out the teeth of this bitch who planned to kill the Queen Mother!
"Du Qing, you are right! You are going to kill everyone!"
"I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
The chef of Shangshi Bureau cursed loudly.
Du Qing's whole face was twitching. The emperor was not joking. Shu Liang was really arresting people according to the list. Because he was alone, the entire Shangshan Supervisor and nearly ten thousand people in the Shangshi Bureau suffered. He...
"Your Majesty, the female official of the Shangshi Bureau is the Huang family. She was born in the palace of the Empress Dowager Zhang, but she and the Empress Dowager have no connection." Shu Liang said in a low voice.
"Kill!" Zhu Qiyu showed murderous intent.
No matter who Huang Shangshi belongs to, he is not Zhu Qiyu’s person anyway. Giving meals to others is tantamount to putting your life in other people’s hands. This is the incompetence of the original owner. Anyone who comes to him should be killed!<
/p>
Shangshan Supervisor, Shangshi Bureau, and even Guanglu Temple can all be cleaned up at this opportunity. As long as they are not Zhu Qiyu's people, kill those who deserve to be killed, and use this to send the rest out, and the palace will be clean.
I really have to thank Du Qing for being tight-lipped and able to hold on, giving him the chance to take action.
"Your Majesty will save people under the sword, as the Holy Mother said!" But at this moment, Ye Shanggong came running over. She heard in Yongshou Palace that the emperor was making a fuss at the Shangshi Bureau, so she knew something was wrong.
On the way there, she heard that the emperor wanted to kill all the eunuchs, eunuchs and female officials of the Shangshi Bureau because of Du Qing, and then send everyone in the Shangshi Bureau out of the palace and demote them to lowly positions.
She had no doubt that the emperor was joking, because the emperor was crazy. He even killed Gao Gu, Wang Ao, King Xiang, Chen Mao and other important ministers, nobles and vassals whenever they wanted. He would probably have any grudge against him if he killed mere eunuchs and maids.
There will be a big conspiracy, a mass killing, and the entire inner palace will be bloody.
"Leave under the knife..."
Poof!
Huang, a female official of the Shangshi Bureau, was held down by two young eunuchs, and was decapitated by Shu Liang!
Huang Shangshi's head fell to Ye Shanggong's feet, his eyes round and staring, as if staring at her! She was so frightened that she exclaimed.
I saw Huang Shang died.
The entire Shangshi Bureau was inexplicably quiet, the voices begging for mercy stopped, everyone swallowed in horror, the emperor was serious!
"Ye Shangyi, what are you doing here?" Zhu Qiyu glanced at her and asked lightly.
The female official of Ye Shanggong's Shanggong Bureau has not yet been officially canonized, so Zhu Qiyu called her her original official position.
"This servant pays homage to Your Majesty."
Ye Shanggong saluted and said quickly: "This slave has come to deliver the Holy Mother's message."
Zhu Qiyu did not give her a chance to read out the oral decree, and said lightly: "So the Queen Mother also heard that Concubine Li was killed?"
"Thank you to the Empress Dowager for your love and care, and tell the Empress Dowager that I have taken care of it."
"This Shangshi Bureau really has no rules. Even the imperial concubine dares to be poisoned. I am very worried about the safety of the empress dowager."
"Today there is Du Qing, but who knows tomorrow whether there will be Li Qing, Wang Qing, ambitious, and offer poisonous soup to the Empress Dowager?"
"Poisoning Concubine Li is a trivial matter. If something happens to the Empress Dowager, the world will be shaken, and I will feel uneasy. At that time, killing tens of thousands of people will not be able to calm it down!"
Zhu Qiyu's tone was gloomy and he meant something: "Shu Liang, go ahead and kill! I want to see how many people with ulterior motives there are in this Shangshi Bureau! Kill!"
Shu Liang asked people to push out all the female officials from Shangshi Bureau and let the people from Dongchang kill them directly.
Ye Shanggong’s eyes widened!
Those the emperor killed were all members of the Holy Mother!
Huang, the female official of the Food Bureau, was a maid in the palace of the Empress Dowager Zhang. Because the Virgin Mary had been under the knee of the Empress Dowager Zhang since she was a child, she naturally knew her. After the death of the Empress Dowager Zhang, the harem gradually fell into the hands of the Virgin Mother.
Last year, Mrs. Huang spent a lot of money to follow the path of the Holy Mother and became the female official of the Shangshi Bureau.
Until the beginning of this year, the Holy Mother, through Huang's hand, completely controlled the Shangshi Bureau!
But the emperor took advantage of the Virgin Mary’s good reputation, and those who killed the Virgin were ruining the Virgin Mary’s reputation!
She wanted to speak up, but the emperor didn't give her a chance to speak.
She saw with her own eyes that several female officials from the Shangshi Bureau were beheaded, with blood splattered all over the floor, and even blood flowed to her feet, and she suddenly felt bad.
She wanted to read out the oral decree several times, but she didn't dare. She was worried that as soon as she finished reading it, she would follow in Huang Shangshi's footsteps.
She was not Nie Shanggong, and she did not have Nie Shanggong's courage and prestige. She did not dare to directly contradict the emperor. So she did not dare to speak, so she could only secretly worry in her heart and send someone back to ask the Holy Mother to come forward.
"Bah! Du Qing, I mistakenly believed you!" A familiar imperial chef sprayed Du Qing's face with thick phlegm.
Du Qing gritted his teeth and his whole body was shaking.
There is blood, the emperor really killed someone!
Seeing familiar people falling into a pool of blood one by one, he knew that if he didn't spit, the emperor would kill more and more people and pin the blame on him!
In fact, the emperor will definitely dig out his true identity. By then, his family...
Du Qing shuddered and shuddered.
Seeing the admiral eunuch of Shangshan Supervisor being pulled out, Dongchang Fanzi’s knife was raised high, and with a pop, another fresh life was lost!
Zhu Qiyu suddenly waved his hand, indicating to stop: "Shu Liang, give Ye Shangyi the knife, you come and kill!"
"Ah?" Ye Shanggong exclaimed. The emperor actually used her as a knife to kill the Virgin's people. In fact, he was undermining the Virgin's authority in the harem! The emperor's heart is so vicious!
"Your Majesty..." Ye Shanggong was about to argue.
"Do it!"
After hearing Zhu Qiyu's order, Shu Liang handed the knife to Ye Shanggong: "Ye Shangyi, please."
Ye Shanggong gritted her teeth. Not only could she not kill them, but she also had to protect these people. Otherwise, who would dare to sacrifice their lives for the Holy Mother in the future?
But to keep these people, Du Qing must be betrayed!
But if Du Qing betrays him in desperation and bites out his boss... the end will not be easy even for her!
The emperor is so vicious that he uses the Holy Mother’s knife to kill the Holy Mother’s people!
Ye Shanggong felt regretful. He should not have appeared if he had known she should have appeared, and he should not have interfered indiscriminately!
Now we are in a dilemma, it is not right to protect, it is not right not to protect!
Ye Shanggong's face was full of despair. It would be great if Du Qing could bite his tongue and commit suicide...
"Stick Du Qing's mouth and don't let him die." Shu Liang sneered as if he had read through Ye Shanggong's thoughts.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Ye Shanggong's heart fell to the bottom.
Slowly picking up the knife, her hands were shaking, and with a bang, the knife fell to the ground. She cried and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, this servant is timid, no, I don't dare to kill..."
"Don't be afraid, think about it, these people poisoned and murdered the Queen Mother. You are the Queen Mother's personal maid, shouldn't you avenge the Queen Mother?"
"Pick them up and chop them to death!"
"I will support you!"
Zhu Qiyu's voice was cold, but it contained a hint of joking.
But Ye Shanggong knelt on the ground with a bang and gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, these are innocent people..."
"Innocent?"
Zhu Qiyu shouted: "Which one is innocent? Is it Huang Shangshi? Or is he the supervising eunuch of Shangshan Supervisor?"
"What do they do for food? I appoint them as officials, not to let them dominate! They supervise the Shangshan Supervisor and the Shangshi Bureau! They are responsible for my meals!"
"The imperial chef poisoned the imperial concubine!"
"Why didn't Huang Shangshi check? Why didn't the admiral eunuch know? Why didn't any of the people who tested poison from various sects die?"
"Ye Shangyi, you are also an old man in the palace? You have been serving the Queen Mother since you were a child! Don't you understand the rules?"
"You actually intercede for sinners? And you still say these sinners are innocent?"
"How can they be innocent?"
"I see you are protecting a sinner! Planning to kill the Queen Mother!"
"Someone! Arrest her!"
"Pry open her mouth! I want to see who else is her accomplice! How did she plot to kill the Queen Mother!"
"The Queen Mother is really out of her mind! She actually mistakenly trusted you and other villains to be personal maids! And she also asked you to take over the harem and be in charge of the female officials in the palace? This is unreasonable!"
"No, it was you and other scoundrels who deceived the Queen Mother!"
"I want the Queen Mother to see your true face!"
"Do it!"
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand, and Dongchang Fanzi arrested Ye Shanggong.
"Your Majesty is wronged, Your Majesty!" Ye Shanggong was completely stunned. Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly became angry and took the opportunity to capture her.
Originally, she was trying to save people, but she ended up falling into it.
Bang! Bang!
Shu Liang slapped her twice hard on the face and shouted: "Your Majesty is the master of the world! He talks about the Constitution and says you are guilty, then you are guilty! If you dare to quibble, someone will pry her mouth open."
Come on, pull out the tooth! See how she quibbles!"
"Ah!"
In front of the Shangshi Bureau, Ye Shanggong’s screams rang out.
Everyone was stunned and their hearts dropped to the bottom. The emperor must deal with them. The only one who can save them is Du Qing!
"Who else dares to intercede for sinners?"
Zhu Qiyu looked around, only a low cry was left: "Kill!"
Phew! Phew! Phew!
A few more heads were chopped off, and all the officials in Shangshan Supervisor and Shangshi Bureau were killed.
Du Qing was dumbfounded, and the fear in his heart became more and more intense. The emperor would definitely be able to find out his true identity, he would definitely be able to...
At that time, his parents, wife and children may not be able to survive but die...
Du Qing shuddered violently, he couldn't hide it anymore, he couldn't hide it anymore!
"Your Majesty, we've finished killing the officials, why not find all those who are familiar with Du Qing and kill them together!" Jin Zhong understood the emperor's thoughts.
"Yes!" Zhu Qiyu agreed.
Several of the imperial chefs were so frightened that they peed like urine and cursed Du Qing wildly.
Dongchang Fanzi deliberately slowed down and dragged the man past Du Qing. Du Qing could see the man's wailing before death, his incontinent embarrassment, and the curses he was being cursed at. However, Dongchang Fanzi let these people go.
He scolded Du Qing, and every word stimulated Du Qing.
He may have no conscience, but the more people he kills, the more cruel the emperor will be when he finds his family!
The accounts of these innocent people who died in vain will be recorded on his head!
"Your Majesty, after killing these people, find and kill everyone who has spoken to Du Qing! After killing these people, find and kill everyone who has met Du Qing! Anyway, and
No one related to Du Qing will be spared!" Jin Zhongdajin slandered.
But the entire Shangshi Bureau was shocked and begged one after another.
"My slave said it! My slave said it!" Du Qing nodded desperately. His mouth was stuffed and he couldn't speak. He couldn't stand it anymore, he really couldn't stand it anymore.
The corners of Zhu Qiyu's lips curled up.
Let people watch him and be careful not to commit suicide.
"This slave is a royal guard!" Du Qing spat.
Zhu Qiyu let out a sigh of relief. He was not a murderer and would not kill irrelevant people. If he really killed people who were close to Du Qing because he was interrogating Du Qing, he would be sprayed to death by the imperial censor tomorrow. I was just trying to scare Du Qing, but luckily he did it.
"Jinyiwei? Who do you belong to? What do you do in Shangshi Bureau? Who else is in the party?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.
"I don't know who I belong to. I only know that I was ordered to enter the Shangshi Bureau. I also obey orders..."
It seemed that what he said was true, but this place was not suitable for interrogation. Zhu Qiyu asked Shu Liang to take the person away and return him to Qianqing Palace for interrogation.
"Supervisor Shangshan, no one from the Shangshan Bureau can be retained. Give more rewards and send them out. Don't worry about the reward money. I will find a way."
"Recruit another group of people from the private sector. All records of each person must be recorded in the Dongchang. Everything must be done down to the smallest detail and all the eighteen generations of his ancestors must be checked by me. If there are not enough manpower, we will recruit. Money is the problem. I'll handle it. Remember, it doesn't matter if the newly recruited chef cooks a little, what's important is loyalty."
"My food remains the same as before and is not allowed to pass through anyone else's hands."
"Remember, newcomers can't be trusted. If you cultivate some tricks and put them in, I want the food bureau to be completely under my control. I won't allow any mistakes. Do you understand?"
"You are here to serve as the Supervisor of Food and Beverage. I will take over for you when a suitable candidate is found."
Zhu Qiyu repeatedly warned.
"My slave obeys the order, then Ye Shangyi..." Shu Liang pulled out six of Ye Shanggong's teeth. At this moment, her face was covered with blood and she was still wailing.
"Admit your mistake and send it back. Business is important. You must learn to cultivate your confidants and delegate power. Don't cling to power. As long as I believe in you, you will always have power." Zhu Qiyu knocked Shu Liang.
Shu Liang's body shook and he knelt on the ground to receive the order.
He came to Ye Shanggong and saw that Ye Shanggong's face was covered in blood, his front teeth were gone, and he was covered in blood when he smiled. He was quite good-looking at first, but now he has turned into Qiu Qianchi.
"Please forgive me, Shangyi. Our family has acted harshly. Now the truth is revealed. The emperor's eyes are as bright as fire. Du Qing is indeed a member of the Imperial Guard. He must have impure motives for poisoning the imperial concubine. Let's first make amends to Shangyi." , I will be the host another day and treat Shangyi to a drink." Shu Liang apologized, but without any sincerity.
Ye Shanggong's whole body is shaking, he has six teeth!
The head of the palace ladies had six of her teeth pulled out. She just gave a gentle apology and that was it?
"Shu Liang!" She spoke in a leaky voice, with a cry, and the pain in her mouth was unbearable.
"Shang Yi, please don't be angry. If the wound bursts, it won't be beautiful anymore. Phew..." Shu Liang couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud.
It is said that when the late emperor was there, Ye Shanggong dressed up every day and wanted to climb onto the dragon bed. Empress Dowager Sun saw through her thoughts and told the late emperor, but the late emperor thought she had a big face and was not good-looking enough, so she refused.
Ye Shanggong became a joke in the palace.
If the late emperor saw her chipped teeth, would he send her to Zhongdu?
Shu Liang smiled unkindly.
Ye Shanggong was so angry that he was shaking all over. How dare you laugh at me? Why do you, a dead eunuch, laugh at me?
"Bah!"
Ye Shanggong spat out a mouthful of blood and gritted his teeth: "Shu Liang! I will never let you go! I will never let you go! Ahhh!"
The more she gritted her teeth, the more painful it became. Blood flowed out from the corners of her mouth, and the pain made her have to let go of her teeth.
But when the teeth are released, the mouth opens naturally, and the mouth without the front teeth is exposed again.
She seemed to see someone laughing at her, so she immediately closed her mouth and tears flowed out unsatisfactorily.
Shu Liang got out of the way: "Shangyi, please don't bite your teeth. The more you bite your teeth, the more painful it becomes. Tsk, tsk, it's our fault. You pulled it out too hard. How about if Shangyi opens your mouth, we'll give you Shangyi another treatment?"
/p>
"Go away!" Ye Shanggong shut his mouth tightly to prevent others from laughing!
The head of the female officials in the palace, without her front teeth, where is her majesty? Woohoo!
"Hahaha!"
Shu Liang couldn't bear it any longer, and finally laughed loudly: "Shang Yi, you look a bit cute to us when you look like this! It's much cuter than your usual cold, arrogant and fierce look, hahaha!" Cute?
Ye Shanggong's chest rose and fell, his whole body was shaking, and he was furious.
I'm afraid that when the late emperor saw her like this, he would just kill her with a stick, wuwuwu!
I must kill you! Kill everyone who laughs at me!
Kill!
Ye Shanggong ran quickly to Yongshou Palace, tears falling with the wind.
Behind the scenes, Dongchang Fanzi’s roar of laughter could be heard.
Kill you! Kill you!
No, not only Fanzi is laughing, but the palace people are also laughing!
Ye Shanggong went crazy.
……
"Your Majesty! You said you have found the enemy who killed my sister... Concubine Li?" When Sun Zhen came, he happened to meet the royal chariot and knelt down to salute.
"Go back."
Zhu Qiyu didn't want to talk nonsense to him.
Sun Zhen was confused, why did he come back again? But there should be no need to continue singing, right?
"Your Majesty." When the royal chariot stopped in front of the Qianqing Palace, Jin Zhong glanced at Li Shu and Sun Zhen and asked Zhu Qiyu what to do.
"Keep singing, is Liu Jing here?"
"Waiting outside." Jin Zhong replied.
"I have no time to pay attention to him, so I asked him to go and mourn in front of Li Xier's body. I sent a young eunuch to watch him and not allow him to stop!"
Zhu Qiyu got off the chariot and said, "Drag Du Qing over here, and I will personally interrogate him."
When Sun Zhen heard the emperor asking them to continue singing, he almost fainted. Are you still singing?
Liu Jing, a member of Qianhu of Jin Yiwei, knelt in front of the Qianqing Palace, his whole body shaking.
Entering the Xinuang Pavilion, Zhu Qiyu asked Li Jin to protect him and sat on a soft cushion. He was exhausted physically and mentally and really wanted to take a nap.
Du Qing was dragged in.
"My surname is Ding, from Shandong. I joined Jinyiwei in the fourth year of Xuande. In the thirteenth year of Zhengtong, I pretended to be Du Qing and entered the Shangshi Bureau." He recruited them all.
"What is your task? Who is your boss? Who should you contact?"
"This slave has never met the people above me, and I have no mission. I am working as a chef in the Shang Food Bureau. I am responsible for monitoring other chefs and reporting the situation to the superiors regularly."
"At the beginning of last year, I suddenly received a mission, asking the slave to contact the eunuch Xu An to deliver news about Qianqing Palace."
"I don't know why, nor the specific content of the message. I'm just responsible for delivering it."
"But I know my mission. As long as someone wakes me up, I must complete the task!" Du Qing said honestly.
Zhu Qiyu’s pupils shrank!
"Are you Jin Yiwei's death room? How did your upline contact you?"
"Yes." Du Qing gave his contact information, but Zhu Qiyu was confused and asked Shu Liang to write it down to see if he could dig up anything.
"Who in the Shangshi Bureau is your accomplice? In other words, who else is there in the world of death that you know?" Zhu Qiyu felt that the palace was very unsafe and must be rectified as soon as possible.
Du Qing shook his head: "I haven't seen anyone in Shangshi Bureau. I was just awakened at the beginning of the year. The contact person was Xu An, but Xu An didn't show up for a few days. I only know so much." p>
Xu An was the little eunuch who was killed by Zhu Qiyu's rod. He should not have died, otherwise the original owner would have died long ago.
He must have been bribed.
And this Du Qing should only be responsible for delivering news, not a murderer.
"Who do you deliver the message to?"
"Xu Bin!"
Zhu Qiyu asked him: "Is it Xu Bin, the eunuch in the Empress Dowager's palace?"
"Yes!" Du Qing admitted.
That is to say, Xu An obtained the emperor's news from the Qianqing Palace and passed it to Xu Bin through the imperial cook Du Qing, who then passed it on.
It started at the beginning of the year, when the original owner fell ill.
It was indeed a well-planned plot. The original owner gradually fell ill because the imperial doctor reversed pharmacology, and with the presence of two troublemakers, Ai Gao Gao and Li Xi'er, the original owner's body deteriorated day by day, and finally he became seriously ill.
When Jinyiwei died, Du Qing was awakened and bribed Xu An, the eunuch guarding the Qianqing Palace. He was responsible for delivering the emperor's news, so that Nangong could accurately understand the situation in the Qianqing Palace and prepare for the seizure.
In other words, the Jinyi Guardsmen are not the Jing Ke they imagined. They are mainly responsible for monitoring, collecting, and delivering messages.
Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief. The death of Jinyiwei seemed to be a thorn in his heart. It seemed that no one was worthy of trust.
Xing'an is right, imperial power is the talisman of life, and the imperial power must be recaptured as soon as possible.
Du Qing suddenly threw himself on the ground and kowtowed: "I beg the emperor to spare my family. I have a secret. I want my whole family to live in exchange for it!"
"Say!"
"Your Majesty..."
"Don't bargain with me, or your nine tribes will suffer even more," Zhu Qiyu said coldly.
"On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, someone came to the slave and asked the slave to slip a message out of the palace..."
Zhu Qiyu interrupted him: "When was that?"
"Before the rebels attack the palace gate!"
That is to say, when I entered the Renshou Palace that day, the news in the palace had already spread? The person looking for Du Qing was probably the young eunuch next to Xu Bin. Xu Bin came to test me first that night and forced me to go to the Renshou Palace.< /p>
"Keep talking!"
"That night, after I had stuffed the news away, I hid behind the palace lantern and peeked. I saw the face of the person who got the news!" Du Qing's expression was affirmative.
Zhu Qiyu frowned.
"It's Xue Jin, the housekeeper of Princess Changde's Mansion!"
Princess Changde?
Zhu Qiyu suddenly thought of Xue Huan, another traitor pretending to be loyal?
When he first came to the throne, Xue Huan often knelt down and licked him. In order to show his kindness, he rewarded Princess Changde lavishly, wooed her, promoted her, and used Xue Huan to set an example.
Sure enough, we can’t be close together!
She and I are just ordinary siblings, Zhu Qizhen and her are biological siblings!
That is to say, the news from the palace is transmitted through the Changde Princess Mansion!
Changde,Xue Huan?
Okay, what a perfect match! What a loving brother and sister!
Zhu Qiyu's lips raised a smile: "Are you sure you are from the princess's house?"
"I'm sure, this slave is definitely Xue Jin, because my home is not far from Princess Changde's mansion, and I can see him often."
Du Qing knelt on the ground: "I want to use this news to exchange for the lives of my family! Please have mercy on me!"
"Why did you poison Concubine Li?" Zhu Qiyu asked him again.
"Someone instigated the slave to take action. It must be that the slave was exposed and useless, so he used the slave to do the last thing and then committed suicide by taking poison." Du Qing smiled bitterly.
He did not dare to speak directly to Queen Mother Sun, and he did not know the reason for the murder.
"Why did you become a dead person?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.
Du Qing smiled bitterly: "If I die in the Jinyi Guards, my son can pursue an official career. This is my promise. No matter how bad it is, I can still join the Jinyi Guards, and my daughter can marry a good family. For this slave, this is enough."
”
"Wait a minute, you are the Jin Yiwei. After you die, one of your sons will naturally be promoted to the Jin Yiwei." Zhu Qiyu was puzzled.
This is Taizu's policy, which is succession.
Du Qing smiled bitterly.
Zhu Qiyu understood that there were policies from above and countermeasures from below, and it was not an easy task for the low-level Jinyiwei scattered across the country to take over.
Using the family members of the deceased to control the deceased and allowing him to pursue an official career seems like the work of a civil servant.
"How many deaths are there in Jinyiwei?" This is what Zhu Qiyu is most worried about.
The existence of the dead world is very disturbing. At one time, Zhu Qiyu looked at everyone as if they were in the dead world, which easily made him distrustful of others. This was a taboo of being an emperor.
Du Qing said he didn’t know.
"Let him keep his body intact and let his family pardon him." Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and asked people to drag Du Qing down.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Du Qing kowtowed.
"Shu Liang, send someone to check Xue Huan!" Zhu Qiyu's eyes were ruthless. I can't deal with civil servants, and I can't deal with a distinguished person like you?
Look how I will kill you! Good brother-in-law!
At this time, Feng Xiao came in with a food box: "Your Majesty, it's time to take medicine. The medicine was prescribed by the female doctor Tan, and the whole process only passed through the hands of the slave."
"Try it?"
"My slave tried it half an hour ago. It's not poisonous." Feng Xiao knelt on the ground and presented the medicine.
Zhu Qiyu frowned and drank it. Feng Xiao presented another piece of rock candy and wiped his mouth.
He didn't allow anyone else to get close to him, so Feng Xiao was the only one who took medicine for him.
"Your Majesty!"
A joyful voice came from outside the door of Xinuan Pavilion: "The Ai family heard that the emperor wants to eat chestnut cake. The Ai family just cooked it and it is still hot. The emperor eats it quickly."
Empress Dowager Wu came in with a smile on her face, carrying the food box in her own hands.
Zhu Qiyu's face froze, he stood up and saluted: "Mother."
"Your Majesty, please sit down quickly and try the chestnut cake made by your mother."
Empress Dowager Wu couldn't wait to take out the dinner plate, with a face full of joy: "You have liked this bite since you were a child. You have eaten less in the past two years. Try it quickly. Is it the same as when you were a child?"
"Mom, wait a minute, my son has just taken the medicine and cannot eat other food for the time being to avoid collision."
Zhu Qiyu will not touch anyone’s things, let alone eat them!
Even if this person is his biological mother, it won't work. Queen Mother Wu may not have the intention to harm him, but there is no guarantee that someone will take the opportunity to poison him.
He has completely broken up with Zhu Qizhen's mother and son. Until the inner palace is completely cleaned up, everyone must be on guard.
"Why are you taking medicine? What's wrong with your body? What did the imperial doctor say?" Empress Dowager Wu's face was filled with concern.
"It's okay if it's a little cold." Zhu Qiyu couldn't bear Empress Dowager Wu's excessive concern.
The relationship between the original owner and her was not good, and the relationship between mother and son was cold, so when Zhu Qiyu showed some kindness, Empress Dowager Wu desperately showed her motherly love, causing Zhu Qiyu a headache.
Seeing that Empress Dowager Wu was still concerned, Zhu Qiyu quickly changed the subject.
Seeing that the emperor was impatient, Empress Dowager Wu shut up angrily and said with a forced smile: "Your Majesty, there is no one you can trust around you, so why not ask your uncle Wu An to help you."
Zhu Qiyu frowned. Wu An was Empress Dowager Wu's brother and uncle, but he was not close to this uncle, because Wu An did a lot of bad things, and the original owner had to wipe his ass. If he was asked to help, wouldn't it be better to help him more?
Busy?
"Mother, let me take a look at Wu An's errand. The library was stolen last night, and this matter is of great concern!" Zhu Qiyu said slowly.
"What?"
Empress Dowager Wu was startled, and then became furious: "It must be her! Only she can hate the prince of the Ai family! Prince, go catch that old witch, torture her, and you will definitely find out her whereabouts!"
She hated the Queen Mother Sun so much, but she didn't dare to directly curse the Queen Mother Sun by her name. It was really annoying and funny.
Zhu Qiyu rolled his eyes, no wonder the original owner was not close to her. This is not only a political idiot, it is simply a political disaster.
"Don't be upset, mother. I have already sent people to search the palace. But when Shu Liang searched your palace, why didn't Lian Zhong allow the search?" Zhu Qiyu should just tell her directly. She couldn't understand even if he went around and around. "The Ai family had a terrible headache last night, and there was no medical doctor to treat it."
Empress Dowager Wu complained a little. She glanced at the emperor secretly, worried that he would dislike her, and quickly said: "Lian Zhong sealed the palace gate and did not allow anyone to enter or leave, so as not to disturb the Ai family."
"Have a headache? I've never heard that my mother has a headache?"
"Indeed, not really. Maybe the rebels attacked the gate that night and frightened the Ai family." Empress Dowager Wu said a lot of caring words again, and she was fortunate to have defended the gate and blocked the rebels.
Zhu Qiyu caught something, frowned, and asked her: "When did you get the headache?"
"Hai Shi."
Zhu Qiyu looked at Shu Liang, and Shu Liang understood: "Back to the emperor, the library should have been stolen during Haishi!"
That is to say, the theft of Liku is related to Xian'an Palace?
"Go quickly! Search the palace! No one in Xian'an Palace is allowed to enter or exit! Arrest them all and torture them severely!" Zhu Qiyu made a decisive decision.
Empress Dowager Wu did not have a headache, but she suddenly had a headache. After the headache, she sealed the palace and banned Shu Liang from entering the palace to investigate. It was really strange, especially since Empress Dowager Wu was the biological mother of the emperor, and she had a special status in the harem. She was also stupid and liked to show off.
It's just right to use her as a shield.
"Your Majesty, please don't scare the Ai family. How could the Ai family steal Liku's treasure?" Empress Dowager Wu was startled.
"I'm not doubting my mother, I'm just investigating."
Zhu Qiyu was very tired of explaining. This mother has no political literacy and can still show off in the palace. She is really an old witch and has mercy on her.
He continued to warn: "Also, don't let it go underwater, send people down to investigate!"
"Ask the nearest navy to block the Jinshui River and send people down to search for it!"
"Even if Xian'an Palace is turned over, we still have to get the things back! Do you understand?" Zhu Qiyu was basically certain that the theft of Liku was related to Xian'an Palace.
"Your servant accepts the order!" Shu Liang knelt down to salute, quickly left the palace, and summoned people from Dongchang to blockade Xian'an Palace.
