The prince has calmed down.

The Queen is starting to make trouble again.

The queen lost something, and the emperor casually said he would investigate it thoroughly.

The result was no news.

I also heard that he has been particularly concerned about the prince recently and has invited a miracle doctor to treat Concubine Xi.

The Queen sent a letter to her nephew. Come to the Cining Palace to discuss important matters.

She also hinted to the ministers of the Queen's party that she was about to take action.

Charlotte was not to be outdone.

Let Cao Zhize use money to win over those playboys outside.

He also trained so many martial arts masters in his old house in the suburbs of Beijing.

Cao Zhize kept several messengers inside and outside the palace.

Information is fed back to Charlotte every hour of every day.

She knew everything that happened in the palace.

So no matter whether it was the emperor, the empress, the crown prince, or the emperor's concubines, she could analyze the problem very well.

This is called knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, and you will win every battle.

When the Queen makes any move.

Charlotte knew it immediately.

She owns Huaqing Palace and knows what's going on inside and outside the palace.

The queen first summoned her nephew, ostensibly because he was worried about his aunt's health and came to pay his respects.

Actually want to plot something big.

The first thing was to put the prince to death.

The second thing was to depose Concubine Xi.

The third thing is to win over Charlotte and use him for his own purposes.

As for the emperor, they have to clear the obstacles ahead before they can make their next plan.

Everyone knows that if you want to become a king, the treasury must be full.

Now the Mobei Kingdom has been at war for years, and the military expenditure is huge. The treasury has long been empty.

Coupled with the drought and poor harvest, the people were suffering.

Taxation is even more difficult.

The emperor did this for the stability of his kingdom.

From time to time, he punished officials who were corrupt and accepted bribes.

Confiscating property, exterminating the entire family, and exiling them.

To obtain silver to fill the treasury.

In addition, some merchants paid annual silver to supplement supplies.

Being an emperor is also difficult.

We must not only ensure that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, we must also ensure that the border is stable, and we must also ensure that local officials are loyal.

If you don't want the country to fall into the hands of others, you must use both civil and military means to stabilize and coordinate the forces of all parties.

The queen had no children and had been criticizing the prince's various misdeeds in front of the emperor.

From time to time, she praised her nephew He Qing for his literary and military skills.

Recommend He Qing openly and secretly.

He Qing was made the captain of the Yueqi Army and was in charge of the imperial guards.

The emperor is well aware of the struggle among several forces.

But his son is not doing well. He is very disappointed.

Plus the queen's pillow talk?

At one point, he wanted to pass the throne to He Qing.

But now I know that my son is alive and so outstanding.

The emperor straightened his back during this period.

He was more diligent in handling government affairs and paid more attention to the various memorials submitted by ministers.

The queen observed the emperor's performance and wondered why he was so energetic.

The Queen remembered that the Emperor had been emotionally agitated in this way when he was young.

Be puzzled.

The prince spoke unclearly and his hands were shaking.

Therefore, without his instructions, Shi Cainan did not dare to speculate on the prince's intentions.

We can only wait until the prince gets better before discussing it.

The people who went to Willow Village wrote back.

After searching the entire Willow Village, no trace of the two children was found.

Some people said that Charlotte took him away. As for where he went, no one knew.

Said the boy was studying in the academy.

As a result, when I went there, even the dean was missing.

Go to the county magistrate's mansion, the prefect's mansion in the provincial capital, and search for anyone she had contact with.

Even Charlotte's family was not spared.

He Qing came to the Cining Palace. In ancient times, outsiders were not allowed to enter the harem.

But who is the Queen Mother? She asked He Qing to come to her inner chamber and sent everyone away.

"Qing'er, Auntie has always treated you as her own son and supported you to your current position. You should understand Auntie's painstaking efforts."

"I am grateful to my aunt. If you need me to do anything, I will do it without hesitation." He Qingbiao was very loyal.

"Now, the prince is seriously ill. He has always been a hopeless person. The emperor has done his best for him. It is impossible for the great responsibility of the country to be passed to him."

"Listen to your aunt, and now you should win over the forces that you should win over. It is impossible for your aunt to help you with money now. I heard that the miracle doctor is rich enough to rival a country. You must marry her to make yourself stronger."

"I heard that the miracle doctor is a young girl, and my nephew already has a wife and children, so she may not be willing."

"If you are willing, aunt will kneel down and ask the emperor to grant you marriage."

"Then I'll trouble you, aunt."

"You command the imperial guards and send someone you can trust to depose Concubine Xi first."

"Huaqing Palace is heavily guarded, so it's not easy to take action."

"Then find an opportunity."

"it is good."

"Don't bother with the Crown Prince for now. Wait until Concubine Xi is deposed before taking action."

The aunt and nephew reached an agreement.

Xia Luo heard that He Qing went to the Cining Palace.

She asked Xiao Dezi to report it to the emperor.

The emperor arrived at Huaqing Palace in the evening.

"Your Majesty, I went to the imperial physician to get Chinese medicine today. On the way, I heard that a man from outside the palace had entered. My curiosity got aroused, and I found out that he was the nephew of the empress dowager."

"That's He Qing, the Queen Mother's brother's child. What's wrong?"

"So what position does He Qing hold in the palace?"

"Captain of the Yueqi, commanding the imperial guards."

"Your Majesty, don't you think the Queen was terribly quiet after she lost something?"

"Princess Huilan is extremely intelligent. I hope you can give me some advice." The emperor's humble expression showed that he was giving advice.

"In theory, the affairs of the harem are the emperor's family affairs, and I shouldn't judge them. But now I am the adopted daughter of the emperor and the imperial concubine, and a member of the royal family. I have to consider the safety of the emperor."

"If you want your son to come back more smoothly, Your Majesty, please leave these matters to me. I will defeat them one by one without any effort. Let them waste their efforts."

"Just tell me how I can cooperate with you." The emperor knew Xia Luo's abilities.

"Your Majesty, just give me the location of each mansion of the people related to the Queen and He Qing. Then I will have a way to make them retreat when the time comes."

"Xiao Dezi, at the morning court tomorrow, find out which officials He Qingdu has colluded with, record it, and hand it over to Princess Huilan at noon tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will remember this."

The Emperor spoke to Concubine Xi for a while and then returned to the imperial study.

The next day at noon, Xiao Dezi brought the map.

Xia Luo and Concubine Xi talked about Situ Jin every day.

Concubine Xi's mood became better and better, and her health gradually improved.

At the hour of You, Xia Luo saw that Concubine Xi had fallen asleep.

She put on her nightgown and leapt out of the window.

Because of the emperor’s secret order.

Xia Luo left the palace and went straight to He Qing's mansion.

He Qing's mansion is very large.

There are rockery, lotus pond, flowing streams, and tall pavilions.

He is like a domineering overlord.

Xia Luo carefully checked the warehouse of He Qing's mansion.

Near the back corner of the study, Charlotte saw a servant guarding the door.

There is no doubt that that is where He Qing's belongings were placed.

Charlotte used the same method to knock them out, opened the warehouse key with a master key, then went in and illuminated the entire warehouse with the night pearl.

There were also countless gold, silver and treasures in the warehouse. Charlotte didn't have time to look at them. He put them all into the space with a wave of his hand. It was done in a quarter of an hour.

Because she had to visit the residences of more than a dozen officials tonight, she had to hurry.
