The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 564: 564 Righteousness! (one more)

Eunuch Wei secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Princess Ning'an, who was frozen in place, was not so happy, her eyes turned cold: "Eunuch Wei."

"The slave is here!" Eunuch Wei suppressed his emotions, and immediately turned into a dog-legged servant, "What do you want the princess to do?"

Princess Ning'an ordered lightly: "Go find the queen mother."

"Yes." Eunuch Wei agreed, and together with the imperial guards searched the inside and outside of Renshou Palace three times, the rest of the palace people were all there, except that Empress Dowager Zhuang and Eunuch Qin were missing.

"Go and ask those palace people." Princess Ning An said.

"I asked, but I don't even know." Wei Gonggong said.

Princess Ning An looked at him coldly.

Eunuch Wei blocked the guards' sight and reminded in a low voice: "Princess, we can't use torture in Renshou Palace. It's too flamboyant. Besides, it's the empress's business to rectify the harem. It's easy to give others trouble if you act on your behalf."

Princess Ning'an took a deep breath, and slowly suppressed her anger: "Go and call Commander Fu."

"Yes."

After Commander Fu came over, Princess Ning'an asked him, "Why are you guarding Renshou Palace? Didn't you notice the sudden disappearance of my mother? I don't know if something happened to my mother and let some thief take her away." gone."

"This..." Commander Fu was at a loss. To be honest, he really didn't know. He saw the Empress Dowager Zhuang taking a walk in the yard in the afternoon. How could there be no time for dinner?

"When was the last time you saw my mother?" Princess Ning'an asked.

Commander Fu said truthfully: "It's afternoon, it's almost You o'clock. The queen mother took a walk in the yard, and then she went back to the bedroom. The younger one is only in charge of guarding and can't disturb her old man."

The implication is that their imperial guards can only surround the Renshou Palace, but they cannot keep a close eye on the Empress Dowager Zhuang.

But then again, they guarded so tightly, how did the Queen Mother disappear?

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

A figure skimmed the wind howling roof, flying lightly in the dark night.

Not long after, this figure rushed into Bishui Alley and landed in Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng's home.

It's getting late now, Yao Shi and the children have all rested, only Gu Jiao, Xiao Heng and Lao Jijiu are still sitting in the main room.

Hearing the commotion in the yard, Gu Jiao got up, and Xiao Heng walked over and opened the door one step ahead of her.

Gu Chengfeng rushed in with a person on his back, panting like a cow, and said, "I'm exhausted! It's too far from the palace!"

Xiao Heng glanced at the direction of the courtyard,

Close the door behind Gu Chengfeng.

Gu Chengfeng carefully placed Queen Mother Zhuang on the chair.

"Be careful." The old Jijiu stretched out his hand to help, "Is it freezing?"

The Empress Dowager Zhuang ignored him.

He took a closer look and his face changed.

Gu Chengfeng turned around and looked at the unconscious Empress Dowager Zhuang while pulling his collar.

Uh... the queen mother is asleep? Could it be that he was dizzy?

Well, his speed just now was indeed a bit fast.

"Zhuang Jinse, Zhuang Jinse, Zhuang Jinse!" the old Jijiu yelled a few times, his heart tightened, "Is nothing wrong?"

Gu Jiao bent down and approached her aunt and said, "Auntie, one of the three is missing."

The Empress Dowager Zhuang woke up instantly, opened her eyes and sat up, "Where is it?"

Then she really went to play the leaf card...

The corners of their mouths twitched as everyone looked at her dashing back with her sleeves rolled up, about to fight for three hundred rounds.

Gu Chengfeng: "... Has she been looking forward to coming out to play cards?"

Princess Ning'an took Eunuch Wei to Kunning Palace to report the imperial decree and Renshou Palace with her.

Empress Xiao put down the half-read account book in her hand, and said to Princess Ning An in a nonchalant manner: "In the future, if this kind of thing happens again, you'd better inform me first."

Princess Ning'an bowed her body: "Yes, sister-in-law."

Eunuch Wei broke into a cold sweat for Empress Xiao.

Empress Xiao called Su Gonggong: "You go and tell Commander Fu, no matter whether the queen mother left by herself or was taken away by others, you must find the queen mother, both in the palace and outside the palace."

"Yes." Eunuch Su responded.

Empress Xiao glanced over the two of them lightly, and said: "Princess Ning'an go back first, Eunuch Wei stays."

"Ning'an will leave." Princess Ning'an saluted, then took a few steps back and turned to pass Eunuch Wei.

Eunuch Wei maintained his blessed body without looking sideways, and Princess Ning'an did not show any signs of abnormality, so she just left Kunning Palace.

Empress Xiao glanced at the imperial decree in her hand, and looked at Eunuch Wei seriously: "This Palace asks you, did His Majesty really wake up?"

Eunuch Wei said: "Yes."

Empress Xiao asked suspiciously, "You were always there when His Majesty made the imperial decree?"

Eunuch Wei nodded: "Yes, it's the pen and ink served by the servant. After finishing the edict, His Majesty exhausted his vitality and fell asleep again."

Empress Xiao frowned.

She can be suspicious of anyone, but she can always trust Eunuch Wei.

Empress Xiao sighed: "Understood, you take the imperial decree well, so that you can take care of Your Majesty. Next time Your Majesty wakes up, remember to have someone come to inform me first."

"The slave has written it down."

After leaving Kunning Palace, Eunuch Wei headed in the direction of Huaqing Palace, and within a few steps, he saw a beautiful figure under the big tree.

He was startled: "Princess?"

Princess Ning'an turned around with a half-smile.

Eunuch Wei blinked and saluted, "Princess, the queen just asked..."

"Don't tell me, I'm sorry you don't have the guts to betray me in front of the queen."

"Yes, yes." Eunuch Wei smiled coyly, "Then the princess is waiting here for the servant..."

"This." Princess Ning An threw him a porcelain bottle, "Tomorrow's medicine, I'll give it to His Majesty at dinner time."

Eunuch Wei's eyes flashed: "Ah, yes, the slave will definitely do it."

Princess Ning An said hehe: "If you can't do it..."

Eunuch Wei shook his head like a rattle drum: "Don't dare! The slave's life is in the hands of the princess. The princess tells the slave to go east, but the slave dare not go west."

Princess Ning An raised the corners of her lips coldly: "It's good to know, that's enough, you hurry up and serve the emperor brother, this medicine is not foolproof, if you really wake up..."

Eunuch Wei hurriedly said: "The servant will not let anyone find out that His Majesty is awake, and the servant will notify the princess in time."

"It's good to know."

After finishing speaking, Princess Ning An calmly returned to Bixia Hall.

After confirming that he was gone, Eunuch Wei heaved a sigh of relief and went back to Huaqing Palace in a hurry.

It's been so long, I don't know what happened to the swim bladder in His Majesty's mouth? Did you spill the medicine, did you swallow it?

Eunuch Wei came to the dragon bed and dismissed the servants, then he opened the emperor's mouth and slowly took out the swim bladder.

The concoction inside is still there.

Eunuch Wei felt relieved.

"I have to deal with it quickly..." Eunuch Wei walked out with the swim bladder in hand. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The emperor who can't move: My underpants! There's something in my panties!

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. The fact that Queen Mother Zhuang colluded with Xing Shangshu to murder the emperor spread like wildfire in the capital. The civil and military officials and the people of the capital never expected that the culprit behind the scenes would be the Queen Mother Zhuang.

However, if you think carefully about the empress dowager Zhuang's control over the government over the years, and the suppression and constraints on the emperor, it seems that it is not difficult to accept the fact that she is the culprit.

The voice of the crusade against the Empress Dowager Zhuang sounded from the people, but the Zhuang family kept silent at such a critical juncture.

Zhuang Taifu also said that he could not go to court because of his illness.

This made Empress Dowager Zhuang's prestige and situation even worse.

"grandfather!"

An Jun Wang came to Zhuang Taifu's yard angrily, but the guards at the door tried to guard but failed.

Zhuang Taifu was practicing calligraphy in the study room, when he heard his grandson's voice, he dipped his pen tip in ink without raising his eyelids, and said, "Shouldn't you be serving in the cabinet at this hour?"

King An Jun went to the cabinet, but he came back immediately after hearing something.

Thanks to his status, no one in the cabinet dared to stop him.

When he came to the desk and looked at Taifu Zhuang who was concentrating on practicing calligraphy, he knew that he was not really sick these days, but just deliberately not going to court.

"Did grandfather hear about aunt?" he asked.

Taifu Zhuang didn't look at him, and wrote a mountain character: "This is not something you should worry about."

King An Jun looked at Mrs. Zhuang with burning eyes: "It's not something I should worry about, so what about grandfather? Isn't grandfather worried too? What happened to the Queen Mother, grandfather shouldn't come forward to protect the reputation of the Queen Mother, and go to Dali Are the Temple and the Ministry of Punishments actively looking for evidence that the Queen Mother was slandered?"

Mrs. Zhuang's pen stopped, and she glanced at him: "You know it's slander?"

King An Jun said solemnly: "The queen mother will not do such a thing. If she wants your majesty's life, she doesn't have to wait until now. Grandpa understands the queen mother's methods better than me."

Taifu Zhuang: "So what?"

King An took a deep look at Zhuang Taifu: "Grandfather...is he planning to stand by and watch?"

Taifu Zhuang neither admitted nor denied: "I did this for the banker."

King Anjun sneered: "For the banker? For what about the banker? Without the blessing of the queen mother, can the banker still be the old banker?"

Taifu Zhuang slapped the brush on the table: "Then do you think the queen mother is still the former queen mother? She has already drawn a clear line with the dealer!"

King An Jun clenched his fists, and said sadly: "So grandfather is dying? She is your sister! After she was sent to the man-eating palace by her biological father, after she even the only After losing her flesh and blood, after she licked her wounds and had to worry about the dealer for so many years, her grandfather just abandoned her! My grandfather only remembered the year when she and the dealer broke up, but he didn't remember that the dealer ate her flesh and blood Those decades!"

Zhuang Taifu said angrily: "Enough!"

Prince An Jun was not deterred by Taifu Zhuang's anger. He looked disappointedly at Taifu Zhuang whom he had respected for so many years: "Grandfather, when I was eight years old, you sent me to Chen Guo as a hostage. , she said, it is enough for the banker to have her, don't sacrifice more people. How did my grandfather tell me? Grandpa, you said, it is too hard for the queen mother to support the banker alone, and the queen mother cannot do everything alone Carrying... So I went! I suffered all kinds of humiliation in Chen Guo, but I never regretted it! But now, I regret it, my grandfather is not for the Queen Mother, nor for the banker, you are just for yourself. "

These words are not unreasonable, but Taifu Zhuang has passed the age of fighting with juniors, he suppressed his anger, continued to write a few words, and said: "Heng'er, you are my last An excellent grandson is the future heir of the dealer, I hope you can recognize your identity."

"Oh, identity."

King An Jun laughed at himself, and said nothing to Master Zhuang, because he had already understood what his grandfather meant, and it would be useless to talk more, so it would be better to save effort.

Taifu Zhuang called him: "Where are you going?"

King An Jun turned back and said coldly: "Grandfather doesn't care about the Queen Mother, so I have no choice but to save the Queen Mother myself, and I will reverse the case for the Queen Mother!"

Zhuang Taifu threatened: "If you dare to step out of the dealer, don't come back to see me again."

King An Jun pinched his fingers and stepped across the threshold.

Taifu Zhuang said in a deep voice: "I will do what I say. Zhuang Yuheng, I gave you your identity, your power and status. Without me, without your status as the grandson of the Zhuang family, you, Zhuang Yuheng, are nothing in the capital. If you think about it clearly, it is not difficult for you to leave the mansion today, but it will not be so easy for you to come back in the future!"

Hearing this, King An really took back the foot he had stepped out of.

Taifu Zhuang raised his eyebrows in satisfaction: "You don't want to go to the cabinet these few days, so you're at home..."

Before the words rest and recuperation could be uttered, King An lifted his hem and plopped to his knees on the ground.

With his hands on the ground, he kowtowed heavily, and his forehead turned red with just one slap: "Thank you grandfather for your kindness."

Zhuang Taifu was taken aback.

King An's eyes were red, and he kowtowed for a second time: "Thank you, grandfather, for your kindness."

His forehead was bleeding, and the water in his eyes flickered.

Taifu Zhuang's complexion changed, and he sternly shouted: "Zhuang Yuheng!"

King An Jun didn't stop, he kowtowed for the third time, and his hot tears hit the cold floor with a clatter: "Three thanks to grandfather for his great love! Yuheng is not filial!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up with his forehead full of blood, choked with sobs, turned around, and ran into the night without looking back.
