1048. Chapter 1048 Anger

When Lu Shiming returned home, he immediately called Lu Xiangzhi into the study and told him that the Queen Mother had summoned the cabinet ministers to the palace tonight.

"What does the Queen Mother want to do? If something happens to the Emperor, why is there no news at all in Kyoto, and there is no movement in Anhe City. Could it be that the Queen Mother wants to seize the opportunity to seize the throne?" Lu Xiangzhi asked angrily on the spot.

"Everyone knows what she is going to do. The most important thing now is to know the situation in Anhe City first. Even if the emperor is missing, he must be careful. Now General Ye has tens of thousands of elite troops, and he will escort him Of course, Yaoyao is not a problem, the biggest worry is that the Queen Mother is secretly making moves behind her back." Lu Shiming said in a low voice.

"Dad, I will go to Anhe City in person and tell the emperor what happened in Kyoto." Lu Xiangzhi said immediately.

Lu Shiming shook his head, "If you leave Kyoto, the Queen Mother will know immediately. You go to Xue Lin and ask Xue Lin to go to Anhe City. You have to stay in Kyoto. Once the Queen Mother has any intentions, how can you and General Ye still be together?" Supported."

"Dad, is this just the empress dowager's wishful thinking or... does the young prince also have that ambition?" Lu Xiangzhi asked in a low voice. He really didn't want to believe that Mo Rongyi would betray the emperor.

Only then did Lu Shiming remember the most critical issue, "I didn't see the young prince in Cining Palace today. I don't know if he knew about it."

"Then I'll ask the young prince first." Lu Xiangzhi said.

"Okay, if the young prince doesn't have that intention, then it was the Queen Mother's idea alone." Lu Shiming whispered. Thinking of the Queen Mother's humiliation to Yaoyao, he was still filled with anger at this time. It seems that even if Yaoyao comes back, the Queen Mother It will definitely not make her feel better.

Lu Xiangzhi nodded softly, and after coming out of the Lu family, he went directly to Merongyi's palace. As soon as he asked the concierge and found out that the young prince was in the palace, he immediately walked to the study.

He has been to this palace countless times, and all the servants know him.

Merongyi heard that he was coming in the study, and walked out from behind the desk with a smile, "You're not coming to my place for dinner, are you?"

"I'll drink with you." Lu Xiangzhi smiled lightly, "I have something else I want to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Mo Rongyi asked, sending the eunuch serving in the study out.

Lu Xiangzhi lowered his voice, "Do you know something happened to the Emperor?"

Merongyi's expression tightened, "What did you say? Who told you? Why haven't I heard of it? There is no news from the cabinet."

"Today the Queen Mother announced that the cabinet ministers have entered the palace..." Lu Xiangzhi told the young prince what the Queen Mother said today, "Ayi, you should know who the Queen Mother did this for."

"I know." Mo Rongyi's face was livid, "The Queen Mother didn't tell me about the Emperor's brother, let alone summoned the cabinet ministers today. I don't believe anything will happen to the Emperor's brother. What the Queen Mother did... is to set up the emperor. Where is my brother?"

Merongyi felt very sad. How could the Queen Mother do such a thing? That's the royal brother! He was his royal brother. If his brother hadn't worked so hard to protect them all these years, would they still be here today? When the Queen Mother learned that the emperor's brother had been in trouble, she actually still had the mind to secretly arrange how to help him ascend to the throne. Wasn't the safety of the emperor's brother not what she should be most concerned about?

If the imperial brother knew about this, I don't know how sad he would be.

"I will go to the palace immediately to find the Queen Mother." Merong Yi said, his eyes a little red.

Lu Xiangzhi took his hand and said, "What can you do if you enter the palace? The Queen Mother left Ruan Jinghua and three people to discuss it for a long time today. Do you think she cares about the Emperor? If you can persuade her, she will not hide it. It’s you.”

"Could it be that the Queen Mother betrayed the emperor's brother like this?" Merongyi said angrily, "That's my eldest brother. If something happens to him, how can I sit here with peace of mind?"

"Even if the emperor is in danger, he will save the day. There is no news from Anhe City so far. There are only two reasons. One is that this matter is false, and the other is that it was deliberately concealed. The Queen is also in Anhe City now. You have to believe it. The Empress is the one, and the Emperor will let you stay in Kyoto because he believes in you. When he is away, you are his eyes and hands, and you must protect Kyoto for him."

Merongyi calmed down from his anger and pain, "The Queen Mother has been in the palace all the time. How did she know that something happened to the emperor's brother?"

"I heard that one of the emperor's confidants came back to tell her, but I don't know exactly who came back. I heard that the person was seriously injured and was in the imperial hospital." Lu Xiangzhi said.

"Impossible!" Merongyi shook his head, "If he is the emperor's confidant, it is impossible to go to the Queen Mother first. I will go to the Royal Hospital to inquire. If this person really exists, I will definitely inquire clearly. "

Lu Xiangzhi also felt that this person was very important, "Okay."

Merongyi asked Lu Xiangzhi to follow him into the palace. First he went to the Imperial Hospital. In the backyard of the Imperial Hospital, there were several rooms for people to stay and recuperate. Merongyi called Judge Gong over and said, "From Anhe City Where are the people who came back?”

"Go back to your lord, that man has already left. Uncle Qiu Guo took him away." Judge Gong Yuan replied.

Qiu Yaozong? A flash of surprise flashed in Mo Rongyi's eyes, and she looked at Lu Xiangzhi.

"Do you know who it is?" There are only a few truly trustworthy confidants around Brother Huang, so it is not difficult to identify them.

"The official didn't recognize who that person was. He seemed to have never seen him before." Judge Gong Yuan said.

"Then how injured is he? How did he get injured?" Mo Rongyi asked in a deep voice.

Judge Gong didn't know the young prince's intention of asking this person, but he felt that the person's wound was really strange, and because the person was sent by the Queen Mother, he couldn't say it too straightforwardly, "It's an arrow wound, it looks like If a new wound is an old wound, it won’t be able to hold on for a few days.”

That’s quite suspicious! Merongyi snorted coldly and said to Lu Xiangzhi, "Go to Qiu's house and find out where Qiu Yaozong took people. I'll check whether Qiu Yaozong entered the palace today. I'll meet you in a moment. .”

Lu Xiangzhi nodded lightly, "Okay!"

Merongyi has been managing the government for some time, and it is not difficult to inquire about something in the palace, so he soon learned that Qiu Yaozong had entered the palace to see the Queen Mother today. In addition, after him, A man claiming to be from Anhe City went to see the Queen Mother.

It seems hard to tell whether this person is from Anhe City.

Merongyi called Jinping, the palace maid next to the Queen Mother, over and interrogated her carefully, only to find out that the Queen Mother and Qiu Yaozong were discussing something in the palace today, and even the palace maids beside her had been sent away.

"You go down first. If you hear any movement in the past two days, please inform me immediately." Mo Rongyi ordered in a low voice.
