Four hundred and eighty second chapter replaces forty-one
Fang Yu thought to himself: "The old woman has become a woman in the underworld, and I will be fine in the palace. But after the palace is closed for a search, the two girls Fang Mu must be in bad shape, so what should I do?"
An idea struck him and he said: "Sister Tao, I have an idea. I immediately went to report to the emperor and said that I saw with my own eyes that the Queen Mother was killed by the fake palace maid, and the fake palace maid was killed by his queen. They had a fight.
We will die together. Anyway, the Queen Mother is dead without any evidence, so you don’t need to escape from the palace."
Tao Gong'e pondered for a moment and said: "This strategy works, but who killed that eunuch?"
Fang Yu said: "I said it was also the fake palace maid who killed her."
Tao Gong'e said: "Eunuch Gui, this matter is very dangerous. Even though the emperor likes you, he will probably kill you to silence you."
Fang Yu shuddered and asked, "The emperor also wants to kill me, so why?"
Tao Gong'e said: "His mother is having an affair with someone. If a little bit of news leaks out, where will you put the emperor? Even if you keep secret, the emperor will always feel guilty every time he sees you, and sooner or later he will have to kill you.
No."
Fang Yu was surprised and said: "He... is he so vicious?" He felt that Tao Gong'e's words were good after all, but these things must not be told to the emperor.
At this moment, several gongs sounded from the south, followed by gongs from all directions. It was an emergency signal that there was a fire in the palace or that there was a police call. All the palace guards and eunuchs were dispatched immediately.
Tao Gong'e said: "We can't escape. You pretend to hunt for the assassin, and I will go back to the house and sleep."
Stretching out his left arm, he hugged his waist, and then ran with him westward to the side of Yinghua Hall, put him down, and whispered: "Be careful!" He turned around and hid behind the corner.
Fang Yu was thinking about Fang Yi and Mu Jianping, and hurried to where they were hiding. He could hear the gongs getting louder and louder, and followed by people making noises, he rushed into the room without risking his life, shouting: "It's me!"
The two girls, Fang Mu, were already so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Mu Jianping asked: "Why are you playing the gong? Are you here to arrest us?"
Fang Yu said: "No, the old woman is dead! Kuo Kuo shouted, don't jump. It's safer to go back to my house."
Mu Jianping said: "Go back to your house, we... we killed someone..."
Fang Yu said: "Don't be afraid, you don't know, let's go quickly!" He leaned over to help Fang Yi up, picked up the baggage with his left hand, and rushed out.
The three of them stumbled and ran for a while, only to see a few guards running towards them.
The leading guard held up the torch and shouted, "Who is he?"
Fang Yu said: "It's me, let's go and protect the emperor quickly. Did he get out of water?"
The man recognized Fang Yu and hurriedly handed the torch to someone else. He lowered his hands and said respectfully: "Eunuch Gui, I heard that something happened in Cining Palace."
Fang Yu said: "Okay, you go first, I will come later."
The guard bowed and said, "Yes!" and led everyone away.
Mu Jianping said: "They seem to be very afraid of you. Just now I said it was going to be worse." He patted his chest repeatedly.
Fang Yu wanted to say something and brag a bit, but he was worried about the Queen Mother's murder and didn't know what the consequences would be. He was so flustered that he couldn't tell any jokes.
They met another group of guards on the way, and then they returned to their residence. Fortunately, Fang Yi and Mu Jianping had already changed into eunuch attire, and the guards were all in a panic, so no one paid attention.
Fang Yu said, "Just stay here, don't change your clothes." He put his luggage in his suitcase, locked the door after leaving the house, and hurried to Kangxi's bedroom in Qianqing Palace.
When Kangxi heard the sound of the gong, he put on his clothes and stood up. A guard came to report that something had happened in Cining Palace, but he could not explain what happened. He was anxious when he saw Fang Yu come in and asked quickly: "How is the Queen Mother? What happened?"
?”
Fang Yu said: "The Queen Mother asked the servant to go back to her room to sleep tonight, and then move into Cining Palace tomorrow. No... I didn't expect something happened in the palace. I don't know what happened, so I just went to take a look."
Kangxi said: "I'm going to pay my respects to the Queen Mother. You come with me."
Fang Yu said: "Yes."
Kangxi was very filial to his mother, so he put on a long robe and rushed out the door. He walked quickly and asked: "The Queen Mother wants you to serve, why do you come to me again?"
Fang Yu said: "When I heard the sound of the gong, I became worried again. I only thought about the Emperor and rushed here in a hurry. It's... damn it."
As soon as Kangxi left the palace, a large number of eunuchs and guards followed him, with more than a dozen lanterns shining around him.
He saw that Fang Yu's clothes and hair were extremely messy, and he didn't know that he was crawling in and out under the Queen Mother's bed. He also said that he was loyal to the emperor and only cared about the emperor. He didn't have time to get dressed, so he came to protect him, which was quite comforting.
.
After walking a few feet, two guards rushed over and reported: "The assassin broke into Cining Palace without permission and killed an eunuch and a palace maid."
Kangxi hurriedly asked: "Have you alerted the Queen Mother?"
The guard said: "Manager Duo has led his people to surround Cining Palace and protect the Queen Mother closely."
Kangxi felt slightly relieved.
Fang Yu thought to himself: "Even if he led a hundred thousand troops to protect Cining Palace, it would be too late now."
It's not far from Qianqing Palace to Cining Palace. You can reach it by bypassing Yangxin Palace and Taiji Palace. I saw lanterns and torches shining like daylight, and hundreds of guards standing in rows. Not to mention assassins, not even one
The mouse can't get through.
When all the guards saw the emperor, they all knelt down. Kangxi waved his hand and quickly entered the palace. Fang Yu lifted the door curtain.
Kangxi walked in and saw a mess of boxes and cages in the bedroom, blood all over the floor, and two human heads lying on the ground. He was so frightened that his heart jumped wildly and he shouted: "The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother!"
Someone on the bed whispered: "Is it the emperor? Don't worry, I'm fine." It was the Queen Mother's voice.
Fang Yu was so surprised that he thought to himself: "It turns out that the old woman is not dead. I was really stupid in what I did. Why didn't I put a sword on her before? She is not dead, so I have to die."
When I turned around, I wanted to run away, but I saw that there were densely packed guards standing outside the door. If I couldn't escape for three steps, I would be caught. I was so frightened that my feet became weak, my head was dizzy, and I was about to fall down.
Kangxi came to the bed and said: "Queen Mother, you are frightened. It is a serious crime to not protect the child well. Those useless guards must be punished one by one."
The Queen Mother took a breath and said: "No... nothing. No eunuch and palace maid quarrel... fight each other to death, no matter what the guards do."
Kangxi said: "The Queen Mother is well? Didn't she disturb you?"
The Queen Mother said: "No! I'm just angry when I see these servants. Emperor, go ahead and tell everyone to disperse."
Kangxi said: "Quickly send the imperial physician to take the Queen Mother's pulse."
Fang Yu huddled behind him, not daring to agree. He was afraid that the Queen Mother would see him, and he was also afraid that he would be recognized as soon as he opened his mouth.
The Queen Mother said: "No, there is no need to call the imperial doctor, I will just take a nap. These two people...these two slaves...don't need to move. I am very upset and afraid of making noise. Emperor, you...you call everyone
Go quickly."
She spoke in a weak voice and was out of breath, showing that she was seriously injured. Kangxi was very worried, but he did not dare to disobey orders. He wanted to thoroughly investigate how the fight between the eunuch and the palace maid made the Queen Mother so angry.
Although the two men were dead, they had committed such a serious crime and their families had to be held accountable. However, after listening to the Queen Mother's words, they obviously did not want to make any publicity and were not even allowed to move their heads. They had to pay their respects to the Queen Mother and exited the Cining Palace.
Fang Yu narrowly escaped death, his feet suddenly became weak, and he walked with his hands on the wall. Kangxi lowered his head and thought deeply, feeling that what happened tonight in Cining Palace was very unexpected, and there must be no secrets in it, but the Queen Mother's intention was clear and told him not to pay attention to it.
.
He lowered his head in thought and walked for a long time. Then he raised his head and saw Fang Yu following him, and asked, "The Queen Mother wants you to serve, why are you following her again?"
Fang Yu thought that he would leave the palace and escape at dawn anyway, so he spoke freely and said: "The Queen Mother said earlier that she was very upset and became angry when she saw the eunuch. I feel uncomfortable seeing the Queen Mother's holy body, so I'd better not trouble the Queen Mother."
That’s wonderful.”
Kangxi nodded and returned to the Qianqing Palace. When all the supervisors serving him had withdrawn, he said, "Xiao Guizi, you can keep it!" Fang Yu agreed.
Kangxi walked back and forth from east to west, and then from west to east. After walking for a while, he asked: "Look at why the eunuch and the palace maid died in a fight."
Fang Yu said: "I can't guess that. Many maids and eunuchs in the palace have bad tempers. They quarrel at every turn and sometimes fight secretly. They just don't dare to let the Queen Mother and the Emperor know about it."
Kangxi nodded and said: "Go and tell everyone that you don't need to mention your matter again, so as not to make the Queen Mother angry again."
Fang Yu said: "Yes!"
Kangxi said: "Go ahead!"
Fang Yu said hello, turned around and went out, thinking: "When I leave, I will never see you again." He looked back.
Kangxi was also looking at him, with a smile on his face and said, "Come here."
Fang Yu turned around. Kangxi opened a gold box on the bedside, took out two snacks, and said with a smile: "I'm tired after a long day, so I'm hungry!" and handed the snacks to him.
Fang Yu took it with both hands, remembering that the Queen Mother was a sinister person and there were men hiding in the palace who would harm the Emperor one day. He was kept in the dark and knew nothing.
The emperor treated himself like this. If he couldn't tell him this, he would be killed by the queen mother, and he would have no loyalty. Thinking of this, it seemed that Kangxi's whole body was broken and he was lying on the ground.
, I felt sour in my heart and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Kangxi smiled and said: "What's the matter?" He reached out and patted his shoulder and said: "You are willing to follow me, right? That's easy. I'll wait for the Queen Mother in a few days. If I tell the Queen Mother again, I won't be able to let you go.
.”
Fang Yu was excited and thought: "Tao Gong'e said that if I tell the truth, the emperor will inevitably kill me to silence me. A hero can do anything, but he has to be loyal. If a man dies, he will die."
Fang Yu put the two snacks on the table, held Kangxi's hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Xuanzi, can I call you Xiao Xuanzi again?"
