It was rare for Song Yingluo to have such a serious look. Normally, this would be enough for Prince Rui and the others to use as a joke, but facing him so directly, Prince Rui couldn't laugh at all. Impulsive.

Sure enough, Duke Qin didn't take Song Yingluo seriously at all.

Ping Chenghou sneered, and was about to speak, but was stopped by him with a wave of his hand with a smile.

His smile seemed too obtrusive under such circumstances, Song Yingluo felt unhappy, and turned her head to look at Qin Chuzhi, the Duke of Qin whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

He looked to be in his thirties, and wore a black long gown with silver threads and moiré patterns on the bottom. At first glance, he looked somewhat similar to the Empress Dowager in outline, but upon closer inspection, he was no longer the same. The eyebrows and eyes are more than a point tougher than the gentle and gentle woman of the queen mother, as if she has seen it somewhere.

Song Yingluo thought for a long time and finally figured it out. Qin Chuzhi's appearance did not resemble any specific person, but the sudden clarity when people of different races looked at him—people's impressions of foreign races are conventional, just like the Central Plains. Everyone thinks that Hu Nu has big eyes and a slender waist. Those unified features are too distinct, and they will overshadow the individual facial features, and eventually turn into a neat impression.

This is an elegant and handsome man, but this appearance mixed with Chinese elegance is also integrated with Khitan blood after all. Even if he has not shown his face in front of people for a long time, the original truth has long existed in the flesh and blood.

Song Yingluo's eyes were dangerous because of this.

Qin Chuzhi seemed to understand the hidden anger in Song Yingluo's eyes, but he didn't feel that it could pose any threat to him at all. He smiled leisurely, as if out of thin air, he made the bloodstains all over the palace into the colors of the red world, Facing Song Yingluo's drawn sword, he was not afraid, and even walked forward like a leisurely stroll, and with a flick of two fingers, he knocked away the blood-stained three-foot green blade.

"You are not allowed to use weapons in front of the Empress Dowager." He said calmly, "The noble concubine was born as a young lady of the Hou family, so she should understand these rules and decency."

The tone was like an elder teaching his nephew, but it was such a light sentence that aroused the empress dowager's taboo for no reason.

The Empress Dowager was wounded, and Prince Rui rushed over to bandage her briefly. Blood was already bubbling from the cloth that was pulled at random. Her face was pale and her mind was in a daze. My dear son, but I feel completely alone and helpless.

Just now the assassin had already been put to death, but what he said clearly meant that Marquis Fengcheng had rebelled; but Song Yingluo broke into the palace in such a embarrassing manner, but it was not to take the lives of herself and Prince Rui, but to point her sword at Qin Chuzhi. , He bluntly said that he "took the emperor to order the princes".

On the one hand is Li Chengzuo's trusted confidant, and on the other is his mother's family who once had doubts and discords. The queen mother can no longer see the confusing chaos in front of her, and the only thing she thinks is "Who should I trust? ".

Seeing that the Empress Dowager's suspicions had arisen, Prince Rui could not tell where her suspicions had gone, he simply urged: "Empress Mother, my son will help you in first, Imperial Physician Xuan."

The Empress Dowager covered her shoulders and stood with a frown. Prince Rui pulled, but she didn't pull. She regained her composure from the daze, and started to leave, but was stopped by Qin Chuzhi.

"The empress dowager stays, and the prince stays." Qin Chuzhi cupped his hands and bowed, "I request a thorough investigation into the case of Marquis Fengcheng's rebellion. , please make a decision early."

The queen mother was stopped by this sentence, and said angrily: "What? What happened to the young lady of the Hou family in Pingcheng?"

Marquis Pingcheng came out from behind Qin Chuzhi in good time, until he knelt in front of the Empress Dowager, crying: "I beg the Empress Dowager to be the master of my ministers, and my ministers were ordered to enter the palace to pray for Dayu, but unexpectedly died in front of the concubine Song. On the way back to the palace... I only have this beloved daughter under my knees, she has always been like a jewel like a treasure, but now that she is gone, I beg the Queen Mother to make the decision for me..."

The Empress Dowager suddenly became dizzy and looked at Song Yingluo.

This matter is too familiar, the experience of choosing the concubine for King Qi is vivid in her memory, she really can't help herself not to think about it.

Before Marquis Pingcheng could cry, the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Forest Army, who was involuntarily controlled by Prince Rui, suddenly broke free from the restraint, went straight to the Empress Dowager, and knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager with a "plop".

"Empress Dowager, I have something to say." The vice commander said, "I was supposed to follow the imperial concubine out of the city today, but during the inspection last night, there were some strange phenomena in the palace, which made the minister suspicious, so I changed it temporarily." Let others follow the imperial concubine."

The queen mother was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What vision."

The deputy commander kowtowed and said: "Last night, the minister detained a 'eunuch' who was ordered by the imperial concubine to go out of the palace to handle errands. After identification, this person is not a person in the palace at all, and his original identity..." The deputy commander pointed out Glancing at Song Yingluo, she sneered and said, "This person is deeply favored by the emperor, and I'm afraid everyone in the court knows him. Come here! Bring him up."

Prince Rui's heart sank suddenly, it was too late to stop it.

Song Yingluo's face turned livid: "You're spitting blood! When did the palace allow the palace people to go out at night! You're talking nonsense!"

Ping Chenghou wiped the snot all over his face at the right time, and complained tearfully: "The noble concubine is still denying it so far. Could it be that the one who accuses the noble concubine of using the technique of hating victory to frame the young girl is not the noble concubine's dowry maid?"

Song Yingluo couldn't argue: "You! You... framed me with trumped-up charges! You can even kill your own daughter! You..."

"enough!"

The Empress Dowager was dizzy for a while and almost couldn't stand still, she supported Prince Rui's palm with her backhand to barely stop.

Prince Rui supported the Empress Dowager, and finally couldn't bear it any longer: "Mother Empress...There must be a misunderstanding in this matter."

"The Ai family has said enough!" The Empress Dowager threw off Prince Rui with one hand, and said in a deep voice, "Bring it up! The Ai family wants to see who is making trouble here."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone outside escorted a man dressed as an eunuch to the palace.

The Empress Dowager squinted her eyes and saw that the man was no different from the moment when he just took advantage of the chaos to break into the palace. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary eunuch in the palace, but in fact he was missing something crucial—the waist badge.

The man lowered his head all the way, without saying a word, he was pushed down to the ground and knelt on the ground by the Imperial Forest Army, also looking sickly, half dead.

Prince Rui's heart hangs in the air... Maybe Song Yingluo didn't know that the previous situation was chaotic, but he guessed it in his heart - if Jiang Xizhu fell into their hands and was pushed out at this time, it would be a shame. It became Song Yingluo's reminder to rebel. After all, everyone knows that Prime Minister Jiang was ordered to inspect government affairs for Li Chengzuo. Undoubtedly, it will increase the weight of all doubts.

The queen mother endured the pain, her lips turned white, she looked at the man kneeling in the hall from a distance, countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and she took a deep breath: "You raise your head."

Behind the crowd with complex expressions, Qin Chuzhi faintly revealed an indistinct smile, his eyes indifferent.

And the deputy commander who pointed out that this person was different raised his head and looked in Qin Chuzhi's direction for credit, as if he had already won the victory.

The man kept his head down, unmoved by everyone's orders.

The deputy commander glanced at him, got up impatiently, and supported the man's chin with one hand, forcing him to raise his head... Then he was stunned when he saw the man's face clearly.

Hou Pingcheng grabbed his snot and tears, and cried the most. He just waited for this person to make a final blow as soon as he came out. He raised his head and was about to talk nonsense, but he was stunned, and the words he prepared were stuck in his throat. , It's like swallowing an egg and being choked.

Qin Chuzhi finally realized that there was an accident in the link, subconsciously glanced at the kneeling man on the ground, and his original complacency disappeared immediately.

Prince Rui was the first one among these people to breathe a sigh of relief. He felt as if his heart had been put all the way from his nose to his heels. Such ups and downs almost made him feel overwhelmed—the person kneeling in the hall was neither Jiang Xizhu nor Li Chengzuo, although He is a handsome man, but he is full of gangsters.

It wasn't anyone they knew.

Rao Song Yingluo, who was so angry that she couldn't find Bei at this time, didn't realize that she escaped the final catastrophe of crushing the camel by a strange coincidence. She just glanced at the kneeling man and immediately revealed The incomparable dislike of "who the hell is this".

"Everyone you agreed to know?" Song Yingluo laughed angrily, pointing at the man and shouted, "Are you stupid or are you blind?"

The Empress Dowager also saw this person's face clearly at this time, and after repeated inspections many times, she finally confirmed that this was a completely strange person, at least she had never seen it before, and she didn't know what was related to it, so she could only grimacing. explained by et al.

Qin Chuzhi looked at the "goods" who sat down and was completely different from what he expected. Regardless of the familiarity of this person, his face was as frosty as snow, and he began to think about what went wrong.

Jiang Xizhu was escorted all the way back to the capital from Yangzhou, and it should have been safe. For this reason, he specially told Yin Jian that there must be no mistakes!Who knew that the insecure front foot would get the ticket, and the back foot would lose the person.

Without Jiang Xizhu, the play would go on and on, Qin Chuzhi's eyes darkened, and he was about to step out. However, before he could speak, there was an elegant smile from the corner of the Palace of Compassion and Ning.

Everyone was attracted by the laughter, and saw a little eunuch in ordinary attire standing in the corner at some point, with the brim of his hat so low that he couldn't see his face at all, and he even had a waist card. His attention was in the temple, and no one knew when he was there or how long he had been there.

However, Song Yingluo heard a little familiarity from this sound, her eyes lit up, and before she could wait for joy, her heart suddenly beat wildly again.

The voice seemed to fulfill Song Yingluo's guess, and finally threw away the hat that was in the way under everyone's gaze. When she looked up, her pair of phoenix eyes, which were so handsome and unparalleled, showed a slight ironic smile: "What the deputy commander is looking for is Your Majesty?"

Everyone was stunned, the person who had been hiding in the corner for a long time was actually Jiang Xizhu.

Song Yingluo was so happy that she wanted to jump up and hug his neck and cry. In fact, she cried out on the spot for nothing. She was crying and laughing like a lunatic, and she blurted out "cousin". He got a bear hug.

Jiang Xizhu patted Song Yingluo's shoulder, and turned his head to salute the queen mother: "I see the queen mother is thousand years old."

After seeing this ceremony, for the first time ever, he walked towards the kneeling man without waiting for the Queen Mother to ask him to flatten himself.

"Master Luo." He called out, "Master Luo, if I have to bear this suffering for me, I will be grateful in the future."

As soon as this greeting came out, Qin Chuzhi finally remembered who this handsome man was, and it turned out to be Luo Wanchuan, the leader of the Cao Gang.

As soon as this thought passed, he finally realized that things were out of control—the Jiangnan incident was led by him, Qin Chu. Although Luo Wanchuan was not the most important person in it, he was an insider who unraveled the fog of Jiangnan.

Qin Chuzhi was planning to cut off Fengcheng Hou's lineage in one fell swoop, so he came to the stage in such a grandiose manner. He cooperated with Yin Jian to cover the sky with one hand, and control the Jiangnan black box. When the time comes, the world will be at his mercy, but he All the calculations did not count that Yin Jian's men could escape a Jiang Xizhu.

Qin Chuzhi's heart sank, and he quickly made a decision. If he wanted to save himself for the time being, he would call Yin Jian to join him in breaking the boat, and there might be a turning point...

Qin Chuzhi's plan was only in his heart, but the others didn't know it. The deputy commander quickly changed his target in a daze, and pointed at Jiang Xizhu, how confident he was: "Rebel...rebel! You and The imperial concubine plans to assassinate the queen mother, what is her plan!"

Jiang Xizhu glanced at him with an inexplicable smile in his eyes, as if he had told a different joke.

Facing such groundless accusations, he smiled.

"That's not the case." Jiang Xizhu said to the Queen Mother, "This is all arbitrariness. It's not the case. I hope the Queen Mother will learn from it."

The vice-commander vaguely felt that the general situation was over, but he refused to let go: "If you say it is not, then it is not?"

Jiang Xizhu snorted and didn't look at him at all: "I have no intention of rebelling, and the noble concubine was also framed...I have evidence."

The deputy commander blurted out: "Who is it?"

Han Rusong, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army who had been silent since entering the palace, suddenly sneered at the Queen Mother's side.

The queen mother was startled and looked at him suddenly.

I saw "Han Rusong" with a pair of slender fingers groping around the neck for a few times, with force, he tore off a piece of skin, the peach blossom eyes on the back of the skin were twitched, a smile that was not a smile, flamboyant as if the whole world was him Clouds in eyes.

"It's really an eye-opener." Li Chengzuo sneered condescendingly, "If you don't close this level and practice this way, you won't see so many dramas! I don't know, but I want to turn against my own country!"
