When the Empress Dowager arrived outside the Emperor's palace, she found that all the concubines were stopped at the palace gate.

"Your Highness has met Her Majesty the Queen Mother."

"This concubine greets the Queen Mother."

When the news of the emperor's injury spread, the concubines in the palace were in a panic. All the glory in their lives came from the emperor. If something happened to the emperor, they would be finished.

Now that the emperor has not yet chosen a crown prince, they must not let other women get ahead of him at this time.

So, even if the emperor didn't want to see them, they didn't dare to leave.

"Empress Dowager, what happened to the Emperor? I am worried about him."

"Empress Dowager, the Emperor is not seeing us, and I don't know how he is doing."

Several concubines were talking to each other.

"I'll go in and take a look. Stop making noise."

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she walked in with Princess Zhaoyang.

The guards didn't dare to stop the Empress Dowager, but they stopped the concubines.

Yang Guifei, Li Fei and others watched the Queen Mother and Princess Zhaoyang walk in, their eyes full of anxiety. After they learned the news, they sent someone to tell their son.

The princes also rushed over at this time.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here."

There were scratches on the emperor's face, and he had applied medicine on it. He was lying on the bed, looking very ugly.

"Please come in, mother."

When the Empress Dowager came in, she saw the Emperor lying on the bed with scratches on his face and a gloomy expression. She asked.

"Huang'er, where are you injured?"

The emperor was lying on the bed with a pillow leaning against his back. After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, the emperor spoke.

"A wild cat grabbed me yesterday, but I'm fine."

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes and looked at the Emperor without saying anything.

The emperor looked a little uncomfortable. He looked at Princess Zhaoyang. Seeing the worried look on her face, the emperor's expression eased a little.

"The emperor's sister is here too."

"I heard that you, my brother, were injured. My mother and I are worried about you."

Looking at the worried look on Princess Zhaoyang's face, the emperor felt a little guilty again.

"I'm fine, you and mother can go back first." The emperor looked at Eunuch Hai again and said, "Let all the concubines go back. If anyone refuses to leave, they will be confined to their homes for a month."

"Yes."

Qinhou Mansion.

Gu Zhao heard the news from the palace in the afternoon.

When he heard that the emperor was injured, Gu Zhao was surprised.

Could it be that an assassin has entered the palace?

But if there was an assassin, the matter would not be so small. How did the emperor get injured?

When Marquis Qin returned, Gu Zhao learned the reason why the emperor was injured.

"He was scratched by a cat?"

Gu Zhao felt that something was wrong.

The emperor was surrounded by extremely skilled guards and secret guards, so how could he be caught by a cat? How agile must a cat be? So is this a cat or a human?

Could it be that he was assassinated by a palace servant close to the emperor? The emperor felt ashamed, so he concealed the incident and said that he was scratched by a cat?

"This is definitely an excuse, but this matter is still under investigation."

Qin Chen held his wife in his arms, and he did not speak out his suspicions. He was still sending people to investigate that incident.

If his guess is true.

Qin Chen looked out the window with deep eyes. There were some things he didn't tell his wife because he didn't know how to say them and some things were not clear. When things were cleared up later, he would definitely tell his wife.
