Chapter 434: Dowry (the cat in Schrödinger’s box)
Chapter 434 Dowry (the cat in Schrödinger’s box will be rewarded with more rewards)
"Come on, send King Xiang back to the palace. Before the truth is found out, you cannot leave the residence without my permission."
Two guards responded and came to King Xiang’s side: "His Royal Highness, please."
The king of Xiang sighed, he wanted to say something, but at last he just nodded, and raised his hand to salute Emperor Qingming: "The courtier believes that the emperor will definitely find the real culprit, and the courtier will be innocent, and the courtier will retire."
In the dimness, Emperor Qingming nodded slightly, with no expression on his face.
After the king of Xiang was taken away, the emperor then said to the officials: "There are many doubts about this matter, and the truth has not yet been found out. Then I will order people to guard the mausoleum and temples strictly, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Please follow me back to the palace."
Everyone raised their hands and said "Yes".
Seeing that the emperor got on the sedan chair accompanied by Han Yan, the officials who saluted him could not help but talk in a low voice.
A few people approached Xia Tingzhen, and as they walked, they inquired about the situation in the meditation room just now.
Naturally, it is impossible for Ji Xiu to move up.
But he is also really curious.
Is it true that the King of Xiang instigated Sun Taifei to do this?
Just like the emperor, it seems that things are not that simple.
At least for the moment, King Xiang hasn’t admitted yet.
When Ji Xiu thought about it, seeing Zhan Yunzhu coming, he coughed lightly—the one with the surname Zhan also followed in. I have to say that this person has become a dog, but he does have the ability to coax the emperor like this. value.
Hearing this cough, Zhan Yunzhu walked over knowingly and saluted Ji Xiu in a respectful tone as always: "My lord."
"What is your majesty's attitude now?" Ji Xiu asked him.
As the two of them walked, Zhan Yunzhu said in a slow voice: "Tales of Concubine Sun refused to admit it, and Jishiwei has not been able to find any other evidence. It is such a big matter, and it is difficult for your majesty to make a conclusion. ."
Ji Xiu nodded slightly.
is not much different from what he expected.
The two left the monastery together, occasionally whispering a few words, and when they met others, they just walked in silence.
Vaguely heard Zhan Yunzhu's voice, Xu Mingyi, who was following Princess Yufeng, did not look up.
Zhan Yunzhu seemed to be aware of something, turned his head slightly, and looked in her direction.
But he met a pair of straightforward eyes--
County Lord Yufeng looked at the young Zhongshusheren from head to toe, and after reading it, he seemed to be dissatisfied, and his slightly raised eyes seemed to convey a sentence—that's all.
Zhan Yunzhu was also not annoyed. After silently raising his hand, he calmly retracted his gaze and continued to walk forward with Ji Xiu.
"I will go back..."
Xu Mingyi whispered a word behind Princess Yufeng, taking advantage of the dim night, no one was paying attention to this side for a while, and then quickly walked towards the shadow on the side.
This shadow was cast by a few tall banana trees.
Behind these bunches of bananas, someone was waiting for her at this time.
Seeing her walking over with her skirt, Wu Chao said: "I saw you walking all the way without raising your head. I thought you had never noticed that I was behind you, let alone I am waiting for you here."
"I am secretly looking at you."
Perhaps the problem of the queen mother was resolved smoothly. The girl was relieved at this time, her eyebrows stretched, and her tone of voice was very relaxed.
Wu Chao saw in his eyes, he unconsciously followed the mood to relax. It should have been a serious topic. At this time, when he said it, it became very casual: "It seems that the emperor is planning to start acting-Han Yan before. It looks like that, most of them have found something and are eager to present it to the emperor."
But the emperor didn't mention anything else, only that the truth has yet to be found out.
And the demeanor of King Xiang is also worthy of closer inspection.
Xu Mingyi nodded: "When Han Yan entered the monastery, Xia Tingzhen should have seen the clues, so he went in to see him. There are also Zhan Yunzhu-these two people, maybe they took the opportunity to blow some wind in the ears of the emperor, and the emperor combined. What happened."
"Well, but don't worry." Wu Chao said: "Let's watch the changes first."
Xu Mingyi nodded in agreement.
The most important thing-the danger looming around the empress dowager has been resolved.
After she goes back tonight, she will finally be able to sleep well.
Wu Zhao looked at her and said, "Clearly, you are fortunate to be there for what happened tonight. If not, the consequences may be unthinkable."
"Why, do you want to thank me again?" Xu Mingyi had a smile in his eyes: "It's not necessary, the empress dowager has already personally thanked——"
The empress dowager thanked her in person?
"In the Zen room?" Wu Chao asked casually.
When Xu Mingyi nodded, he raised his left hand and pulled up his sleeves, revealing half of his wrist: "Look."
Wu Chao looked over subconsciously, and saw a white and delicate wrist in front of him. The two of them were so close to cover their bodies to facilitate conversation. Just as she rolled her sleeves, there seemed to be a very light fragrance diamond. Into his nose.
Isn’t she pretending to be a maid now? The clothes she wears are not her own, and it is impossible to incense if she wants to. Why is this familiar fragrance still there?
The young man's thoughts were a little out of control for a while, and he asked in a daze, "Look at what?"
The girl's wrist shook in front of him: "Bracelet."
Bracelet?
Wu Zhao regained his senses, and saw the white jade bracelet on her slender wrist. He couldn't help being stunned for a moment—it turned out that there was still a bracelet, but he didn't even see it.
"It looks good." He complimented in time.
She looks good in everything she wears.
"I'm not asking if you look good." Looking at the young man who seemed to have a slow mind, Xu Mingyi said, "This was given to me by the empress dowager, as a thank you. There were so many people at that time, I was afraid of being recognized. , I didn't dare to refuse to speak out."
At that time, she just let go of Concubine Sun, the queen mother called her to her, and took her a hand. It was not as good as her reaction, and she didn’t see what was going on. The bracelet originally on the old man’s wrist ran to her. It's on the wrist-she was thinking at the time, is this something mysterious and unknown?
Wu Zhao smiled upon hearing the words: “Since it is the old man’s heart, there is no need to refuse.”
"I thought so too." Xu Mingyi put down his hand and said: "But just now I heard Jiaojiao say that this is the dowry of the empress dowager, and I have never taken it off after wearing it on her body for so many years."
She can't help but feel a little too expensive.
I heard that it was a dowry, and Wu Chao couldn't help being a little surprised.
The empress mother wanted to express her gratitude at the time, and she had nothing else on her body. She gave the bracelet out without thinking about it, or she wanted to take the opportunity to order this wife for him?
He once heard from his mother that some dowry items were treated as heirlooms and left for future daughter-in-laws and grandchildren.
Thinking of this, the young man coughed, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "Since it has been received, there is no reason to return it, so just take it."
