The first corrupt emperor [crossing]

The torrential rain last night came quickly and violently, but it did not last long. The rain stopped in the middle of the night, and the clouds broke and the moon rose. Although it did not cause floods, the damage caused by thunder and lightning was not weak. The palace was smashed, the wind blew fiercely, and the torrential rain stopped, and the fire gradually grew bigger.

For more than [-] years since the founding of the prosperous state, several emperors have always been frugal, and there is a great limit on the number of concubines in the harem. This has led to a lot of vacancy in the magnificent palaces left by the previous dynasty. The vacant palaces are usually surrounded by no one. People, even the night guards seldom went, and no one noticed when the fire started.

In the middle of the night, the fire lit up half of the sky, only then was it seen by the guards watching the night, and all the sleeping maids and servants were woken up and rushed to put out the fire.

Hezhuzhai is located in a remote place, Qin Zheng and Gu Mingzhe slept as if they were dead, well, they were not alive, but there was a live cat in Hezhuzhai.

Uncle Cat can't sleep in the middle of the night. He always goes out for a stroll, patrols his territory, and sees how his rat people are doing. Like Qin Zheng, he lives up and down in his own kingdom.That night, it was planning to expand its territory, when suddenly it saw a group of people running over in a hurry on the border of Xinguo.

Uncle Cat is already very dissatisfied with this group of wandering animals. He squinted at the group of people and felt something ominous happened. Unlike the human emperor who always hides at the end, Uncle Cat always takes the lead as a local emperor, so It quietly followed behind the group of people.

The uncle cat followed him for a long distance, and suddenly felt warm. He wagged his tail and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, a wave of oncoming heat rushed towards him, and the uncle cat's tail became thicker instantly. Be careful to avoid the people running around, turn around and run back.

Uncle Cat ran back to Hezhuzhai, jumped onto Gu Mingzhe's bed, and began to pat with his paws.

Qin Zheng grabbed Uncle Cat's neck and said, "Sir, why are you barking in the middle of the night?"

Gu Mingzhe yawned and said, "You won't be in heat, will you?"

"Meow! Meow!" Uncle Cat's cry became more and more shrill.

Qin Zheng quickly let go of it and covered his ears.

Uncle Cat jumped to the ground and turned around in a hurry, how could these two idiots not understand what I mean!

Gu Mingzhe knows his cat very well, if there is no important matter, it would not call it like this.He frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, something may have happened outside."

Uncle Cat stopped turning around, but looked at Gu Mingzhe.

Qin Zheng looked at the cat strangely, as if he could read the comfort from the cat's eyes, could it be that the cat has become a spirit?

The corner of Qin Zheng's mouth twitched slightly and he lifted the quilt, put on a piece of clothing and said, "I'll go and have a look."

Gu Mingzhe nodded, not worried about Qin Zheng's safety at all, as long as a Taoist priest did not appear, Qin Zheng would not die, and if a Taoist priest appeared, he would not be able to save him either.

After a long while, Qin Zheng walked back to the house with a serious face, "Maybe there is a flood somewhere, I'm going back to Qianqing Palace first, sir, have a good rest, don't worry, if there is anything, come to me."

Gu Mingzhe was startled slightly, hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, be careful on the road."

Qin Zheng nodded to Gu Mingzhe and said, "Thank you."

Although most people in the palace were awake, they all went to put out the fire. Qin Zheng didn't disturb others and returned to his bedroom. He wasn't worried that the fire would burn here, and there were so many people in the palace who didn't just eat for nothing. Although he had heard of palace fires in history, he had never heard of an emperor being burned to death.

The next day, in Xiumu, Qin Zheng got used to it and got up very early. After the memorial was approved, he could only look out the window in a daze. words.

After a while, Qin Zheng came back to his senses, looked at Zhao Guoxian next to him and said, "Which palace leaked water last night?"

Zhao Guoxian looked tired and said, "Back to Your Majesty, it is the Jiaofang Palace, an idle palace. It may be because of the thunderstorm last night."

Qin Zheng said, "There are many empty palaces like this in the harem, and there is no need to rebuild the Jiaofang Palace. Let's fill it up and plant some flowers and plants."

Zhao Guoxian hesitated for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, the Jiaofang Palace was originally the place where the queen lived, this..."

Qin Zheng was a little surprised and said, "Since it is the place where the queen lives, why is it abandoned?"

Zhao Guoxian squeezed his sweat and said, "Return to your majesty, the Jiaofang Palace used to be the place where the queen of the previous dynasty lived, and the queen after the founding of our dynasty also lived there, but...it's a bit cold there, the queen mother's body And weak, so when I arrived at the Empress Dowager, I lived directly in Changle Palace."

Qin Zheng nodded slightly, the little emperor's grandma left early, and his mother lived in Changle Palace directly when she was the empress, but it definitely wasn't because she was weak or sick, after all, the empress dowager is in very good health now.

He has been making up for history for a while. The last emperor of the previous dynasty was fatuous and ruthless, and his life was very dissolute. The only son born died, and he himself died of illness not long after.The former emperor did not stand up again until his death, so don't think that he is affectionate, he just stood up lazily.

Why did the emperor suddenly ask this?Zhao Guoxian caught a glimpse of the maids and servants outside, and suddenly understood in his heart. He was going to go out and teach them a lesson. If he couldn't control his mouth in this palace, something might happen to him in the future.

Qin Zheng stopped the black-faced Zhao Guoxian, called a court lady in, and said, "What did you say outside?"

The maid trembled all over, knelt down pale and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Qin Zheng smiled and said softly, "I don't blame you, I'm just curious."

The palace maid raised her head and glanced at Qin Zheng, and looked at the suddenly gentle emperor with a flushed face. The royal family of the Sheng Kingdom was all very handsome, and she couldn't see anything when she was dizzy. She even ignored Zhao Guoxian's eyes, and bit down Lips, said in a low voice, "Return to Your Majesty, there was water in the Jiaofang Palace last night, there were rumors...the rumors say that the ghost of the former queen is still lingering."

Zhao Guoxian's face was so dark that it couldn't be darker, he quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is incapable of discipline, please forgive me."

Qin Zheng ignored Zhao Guoxian, but knocked on the table and said, "Dynasty change, which corner of this palace has no one died? It's just a ghost. Go down."

"Yes." The palace maid glanced at Qin Zheng again before leaving.

Qin Zheng picked up the writing brush on the table, wrote a few pieces of paper, and then stopped writing, "Zhao Guoxian, you have always acted prudently. I can forgive you this time, but you have to find out the rumour-mongers. Seal this seal." Send the letter to Lin Changfeng's residence." As he spoke, he took out one of several pieces of paper and sealed it.

Zhao Guoxian is not in good health recently, his face was pale after kneeling for so long, he nodded quickly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhao Guoxian is usually kind like Santa Claus, but when he really gets mad, he makes people frightened. Many people in the palace were punished by him, and the main rumorer was killed directly.

The queen mother is very satisfied with Zhao Guoxian's handling method, so she doesn't care about this matter, because she is worrying about another matter. The selection of beautiful women has been going well, and dozens of qualified beautiful women remain in the palace. Waiting for the next round of selection, but at this moment, sudden deaths occurred one after another.

The queen mother rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Has the imperial doctor found out the reason?"

Lianfang said, "Several imperial physicians from the imperial medical office went to see it, and they confirmed that the cause of the sudden death was not an epidemic, but a sudden heart attack, that is..." She died of fright.

It is absurd to say this matter, in the deep palace, under heavy protection, there are actually beautiful women who are scared to death one after another.

The Empress Dowager paused, closed her eyes and did not speak. After a long while, she suddenly said, "Lianfang, you have followed me since entering the palace. I believe in your loyalty."

Lianfang said hastily, "Slaves are naturally loyal to the Queen Mother."

"Do you know why I refuse to live in Jiaofang Palace?"

The author has something to say:

I am also very confused about this style of writing, there will be fantasy and supernatural powers, there will also be power struggles, and there may be rivers and lakes in the future...so...maybe it is a hodgepodge? (Cover your face, not sure, there are surprises everywhere in life, you can’t tell what will happen in the future, the only thing that will not change is cp, the only thing that will not appear is the logic loophole)
