After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart

Sima Chao leaned on the railing and looked at the crowd of people who were being scrutinized outside, and said to himself: "I don't think these thieves are here at all."

Sima Chao was talking to Sima Rui when a guard hurriedly came in from the outside and said urgently: "General, the Queen Mother has a sudden illness in the palace."

Sima Chao asked hurriedly: "What's the emergency? What's going on?"

The attendant reported the whole story. Sima Chao secretly screamed, "We have really fallen into the bandit's trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

Having said that, he took a group of royal guards and quickly headed to the other side of the garden. He also ordered the attendants: "Pass on my order to seal the palace immediately and don't let anyone go out."

When Sima Chao arrived at the palace with his men and horses, the entrance to the palace had just been sealed. The palace manager came over and reported back: "According to the general's instructions, the gate has been sealed."

Sima Chao dismounted from his horse, threw the reins to his entourage, and strode into the inner palace. He asked the person in charge, "Have you seen any new suspicious people in the palace?"

Sima Chao nodded and asked, "Has it been found out? Is there anything strange about the death of Huang?"

A Li replied: "The queen mother fainted from the pain, and the imperial doctor is doing her best to treat her." As she said that, she wiped her tears and said, "Look, it's not good."

Sima Chao replied: "The supervisor Huang who lives in the north hall is suspected. Unfortunately, he died inexplicably last night. I have ordered people to arrest all the people in his hall, and I haven't had time to interrogate him in detail."

The imperial doctor spent the whole night rescuing her. Although the Queen Mother woke up slowly, she was already unconscious. Except for her eyes, which could move slightly, no part of her body could move.

Sima Zhengde rushed to the inner palace after hearing the news, met his son and asked, "Have you found any clues?"

Sima Chao asked: "What is the sound? Have you heard it?"

The man in charge hurriedly replied: "Supervisor Huang sent everyone out after celebrating his birthday." He added: "Besides, Supervisor Huang's palace is in the north. There are independent courtyards over there, and here is The main courtyard is separated by a high wall. This side of the main courtyard is where the nobles live, and people from other courtyards cannot enter."

The man in charge thought for a while and replied: "Not many people have been here." As soon as he said the words, he suddenly remembered something, and then said: "Here lived the great **** Huang who once served the late emperor. The late emperor remembered him when he was alive. As a result, a palace in the north of the palace was given to him for his retirement. Last month, when Superintendent Huang celebrated his birthday, he invited several opera troupes and singers from outside to celebrate his birthday."

In order to better treat the Queen Mother, Sima Chao ordered people to use a carriage to send the Queen Mother back to the imperial city. Shuangchi and the new emperor saw the Queen Mother who was still alive yesterday, but it only took one day to go out to look like this. The two siblings cried. Life and death.

Sima Zhengde nodded and replied: "Now the court has not been decided, I just hope that the Queen Mother can survive."

A Li replied: "I was keeping watch in the side room outside the palace and didn't hear anything. The two palace servants who were in the Queen Mother's bedroom said they didn't hear anything." He was not sure, "Or the Queen Mother Caused by tinnitus after nightmare.”

The deputy envoy replied: "This Superintendent Huang turned out to be a person close to the late emperor. He had the merit of following the dragon. He was deeply favored by the late emperor at first, but later due to illness he could no longer accompany him. The late emperor rewarded him with a palace in the palace for his retirement. .”

After listening to A Li's words, Sima Chao asked carefully: "Were you around when something happened to the Queen Mother? Did the Queen Mother really become ill suddenly?" Sima Chao stared at A Li and said in a deep voice: "You have to calm down. , tell me everything that just happened, in detail."

 One hundred and eighty-five. Two hundred and twenty-eight. Two-six. Forty-two

The new emperor has just ascended the throne, the Sima family has just assisted the government, all forces have not been eradicated, and the positions of the Guo family and the Sima family have not yet been completely secure. The interests of both parties coexist. At this juncture, the Sima family certainly does not want the Queen Mother Guo. Any discrepancies.

The imperial doctors initially concluded that the Queen Mother was poisoned, but the specific poison was not determined yet because the poison was very rare.

The person in charge took the order and left. Sima Chao waited in the palace for a long time. The person in charge came back in a hurry. When he saw Sima Chao, he replied in a panic: "General, that Superintendent Huang is dead." Sima Chao was stunned when he heard this. , asked: "When did this happen?"

Sima Chao personally escorted the Queen Mother back to the palace, and then returned to the palace without stopping.

Sima Chao said flatly: "The Queen Mother's death must have something to do with this Superintendent Huang." After saying that, he ordered the deputy guard: "Give me the order to arrest all the people in the courtyard of Superintendent Huang and interrogate them carefully."

A Li took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. She told Sima Chao what she had just had a nightmare about and scolded the palace attendants. Then she went in to talk to the Queen Mother and recounted it to Sima Chao in detail. Then she said in a daze: "It's nothing." The only suspicious thing is that the two palace servants said they heard some noise after the Queen Mother had a nightmare."

Sima Chao thought for a moment, and then said to the supervisor: "Go and find that Superintendent Huang personally, and I will ask him personally."

The deputy guard took the order and left. Sima Chao was led by the steward to the Queen Mother's palace, where the imperial doctor was treating her. The female officer A Li saw Sima Chao and rushed out. Sima Chao asked: "How is the Queen Mother?"

Sima Chao paused upon hearing this, turned around and asked, "Are these people still in the palace?"

Without waiting for Xu Xu, who was in charge, to finish speaking, Sima Chao ordered the deputy guards on the side: "Not only the royal villa, but also the several independent palaces behind, everyone must be summoned first to wait for interrogation, especially those few. New people coming and going in the side hall recently must be closely monitored."

Sima Chao listened to the deputy envoy's words and sneered: "What is the background of this Superintendent Huang? How can he still be so impressive after he retired?"

The manager replied: "I heard from the little **** who was looking after him that he was fine for the rest of the day. After dinner, he said he was tired and wanted to sleep. Just now I went to where he lived and asked the little **** to call him. Little **** When I went in, I found that the person was dead and his body was completely cold."

The deputy envoy shook his head and replied: "He had heart palpitations and died of this disease. There is nothing strange about him."

"How could it be?" Sima Chao frowned and asked in confusion: "How could there be such a coincidence in the world?"

With that said, he stood up and said, "Let's go and see the people around Huang first."
