In the end, Qin Chuzhi walked out of the turbulent palace with his whole body intact. The others were not without doubts, but they were completely stopped by the ugly queen mother.

Song Yingluo knew about this matter, she looked coldly at Qin Chuzhi, then at the Queen Mother, and turned around to leave first.

Some people can walk freely, some people can walk dangerously, but some people may not have such good luck.

Wang Shichong, Heping Chenghou and others were all taken down, Princess An was imprisoned in the mansion, and all the party members were imprisoned. Even Lin Lifu, who was originally out of the matter, was angered by Li Chengzuo, who was labeled as unfavorable for the government, and was demoted by three levels and fined one. annual salary.

However, the matter is far from over-the central figure of the bloodbath has been surrounded by thousands of flowers, but not a single leaf has touched his body; the whereabouts of Fengchenghou is unknown, and the refugees and rebels in the south of the Yangtze River are still confronting Chaoge.

The same is true of internal and external troubles.

The first thing Song Yingluo did when she returned to the palace was to clean up the palace ban. When things like this happened around her, no one could stay anymore. They were sent away, interrogated, and killed. The harem of this day was like a real Purgatory.

She just ordered the last court lady who cried and said she was innocent to be dragged out and killed with a stick. Li Chengzuo came, followed by Jiang Xizhu and Prince Rui, and behind him was a man Song Yingluo didn't know—who was forced by Wang Shichong to be Jiang Xizhu That Luo Wanchuan.

The harem is not a restaurant. Except for Li Chengzuo, it is obviously inappropriate for other people to come and go here. However, Song Yingluo has just killed the whole country, and there is no one in the whole palace who dares to speak out. Let alone the emperor brought the prince and the prime minister. They brought monsters, ghosts, and snake spirits, and no one dared to invite the gods. Those with winks even served tea and took them out to return the masters to cleanliness.

However, even so, the complexions of the masters are not good-looking, all of them are innocent and light green, gloomy and gloomy, those who lose their fathers lose their fathers, and those who scold their mothers, when they get together, they are happy and sympathetic.

In summer, there are dull chirping of cicadas outside the window. The birds among the trees are sleepy, fold their wings, and hide lazily in the shade of the trees. The sweltering heat hits every corner, and it's pervasive, which makes people feel helpless.

Li Chengzuo had a serious face, and he knew from a distance that either someone owed his life or someone owed him money.He picked the highest place to sit, and waved his hand to signal that they don't need to talk about the rules, but when he lowered his head, he found three kittens who had just grown their fur, occupying the magpie's nest, sleeping majestically behind him, the real dragon emperor. Zhengxiang.

"Tsk..." Li Chengzuo took out the three cat cubs with round bellies one by one and handed them to Song Yingluo, frowning and said, "You are so generous, how can you care about raising cats at this time? "

The three furballs fell asleep one after another, and none of them woke up after being tossed by Li Chengzuo. In Song Yingluo's arms, they closed their eyes and got into a suitable position, and fell asleep again.

Song Yingluo seemed to have three ancestors, she scratched her head one by one with her hands separately, and couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Your Majesty, I met a good cat demon in your mother's harem, and he bought and sold it... ..." Song Yingluo was silent for a moment when she said this, "It even exchanged things with me for custody of the cub, do you want to see it now?"

Li Chengzuo took a sip of tea and knew that Song Yingluo was probably talking about the ancestor of the tabby cat in the Empress Dowager's Palace.

The ancestor always carried the honor of "more than I am to me", but he was the overlord of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and His Majesty the Emperor would take a detour when he saw it.

Now Li Chengzuo suddenly heard that it will exchange, and suddenly said: "What can it exchange with you? A dead mouse?"

Song Yingluo: "..."

Song Yingluo said in her heart, now I really hope it's a dead mouse.

Song Yingluo hugged the three cats, and with an indescribable expression, she walked around the warm pavilion and groped for a while, and when she came out again, the cats in her arms were gone, replaced by the box she dug out from the flower bed in the cold palace with her bare hands. The rags outside were also there, but it was so dirty that there was no way to get rid of it, so Song Yingluo had to take a box containing the cloth with dragon patterns, and piled the two boxes on top of Li Chengzuo. In front of him, it seemed that he had finally thrown his hands and fell out, feeling very upset.

"Your Majesty, you can see for yourself." Song Yingluo said with a wry smile, "But you have to promise me that after reading this, you have to keep calm no matter what. Chaoge City is still sleepy, so you can save some brains to solve the problem over there." Son."

Li Chengzuo raised his head and glanced at Song Yingluo, the meaning was unclear, and he nodded perfunctorily under her suspicious gaze, only for Song Yingluo to let go.

Then I went through the shocking old things one by one, halfway through, closed my eyes and let out a sigh of relief, I couldn't tell whether I was happy or unhappy, I just finished flipping through a few times, rolled those things together, and then Handed it to Jiang Xizhu.

"It's over." Li Chengzuo said, "Look at it, Junchi, that's all, just keep in mind."

Everyone was waiting for him to be furious or lose control of his emotions. Poor Song Yingluo and Prince Rui stood by one side, not daring to breathe. Just now when His Majesty closed his eyes and rested, the two My heart was almost jumping into my throat, I was afraid that he would ignore it in a fit of anger, but after waiting for a long time in trepidation, I heard a lukewarm "It's over", just forget it after reading it, and "it's all" "?

Song Yingluo frowned and looked at it, fearing that the emperor would be taken away by some monster in Yecheng or Jiangnan, she was always on guard against him suddenly getting angry, when she saw Li Chengzuo raised her head, she had to look at Song Yingluo to smile or not : "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will know that those inside who are fighting and killing are desperately going after the dead?"

Song Yingluo choked for a moment, and said to herself, where does your face say that I have a big heart, your heart is afraid that there is a boundless sea, and I can hear the sound of the sea when you open your mouth.

However, Song Yingluo's slander was not over yet, Li Chengzuo snorted again and opened his mouth.

"I've known about this for a long time." He was silent for a while, "It seems that before King Qi lit the fireworks in the daytime, there was really something wrong with the shadow guard you sent."

Song Yingluo waited in fear for his unexpected conclusion. Before she could react, she was even more frightened when she heard his last statement, and broke into a cold sweat: "What shadow guard?"

Li Chengzuo didn't change his face, knowing that she understood, and didn't bother to talk about these nonsense things upside down, so he lazily brought the topic back to his eyes.

"It's meaningless to say these things. At this point, Qin Chuzhi dared to stir up storms in the capital unscrupulously, but because he took advantage of the Queen Mother." Li Chengzuo snorted coldly, like a smile or a sarcasm, "If the Queen Mother If you want to protect him, he will naturally sit back and relax, but in the current situation, even if the Queen Mother does not protect him, I am afraid it will be of no use if we fight him to death."

What Li Chengzuo said is not wrong. The relationship between Qin Chuzhi and the 'choir' is like a vine with two flowers. If you cut one, you can't escape the fruit of the other unless you cut off its roots.

But where is Qin Chuzhi's roots?Li Chengzuo didn't think about it and came up with a result.

Xu Shi mentioned the queen mother, which happened to attract Jiang Xizhu who was reading the box full of letters. Hearing this, he frowned while pinching the letter in his hand: "Has the queen mother ever used the 'choir'?"

Song Yingluo looked bewildered.

Li Chengzuo didn't look at that thing as carefully as Jiang Xizhu. Hearing his question, he was stunned for a moment, and his previous lazy posture was swept away. He got up and walked to Jiang Xizhu's side, and looked at his hand.

"Here." Jiang Xizhu took out a piece of yellowed letter paper, pointed it to Li Chengzuo, picked out some from the few he had seen before, compared them one by one, frowned and said to Li Chengzuo, "And here... and Here... the emperor looks at it, does it look familiar?"

Li Chengzuo watched, without speaking for a long time, scanning the papers over and over again. If there was warmth in his eyes, Song Yingluo felt that the papers might be burned through by Li Chengzuo.

"It's indeed a 'choir'...this is a 'blood prison'." Li Chengzuo pondered for a while, "but it doesn't make sense."

Prince Rui listened in confusion, but the matter involved the Empress Dowager, Li Chengzuo did not let him avoid suspicion at this time because his brotherhood was too strong, it was really inappropriate for him to intervene, so he had to keep winking at Song Yingluo, Miss Song especially Surrounded by clouds and fog, I didn't know where to start to interject, so I heard Li Chengzuo's words out of the blue, so I had to say anxiously: "What is the reason? The 'choir' is a business for money. The Queen Mother can afford it." It is reasonable to be able to call it, and it is unreasonable to use it unscrupulously without paying for it.”

This was just Song Yingluo's casual complaint, but Jiang Xizhu's eyes froze, and then he looked at Li Chengzuo.

Song Yingluo didn't mean to hear what she said, but she meant it. This sentence made them feel a little strange.

The reason why the Empress Dowager used the 'choir' was nothing more than to suppress dissidents. However, the Empress Yuan once held the "Phoenix Seal".The power of the Phoenix Seal is unquestionable. The head of Wudang, who was in full swing in the past, the Luo family who controlled the Cao Gang and dominated the Dayu waterway, and even the officials in the frontiers of the dynasty were all among them. , but want to use a difficult weapon?

Unless the queen mother has a problem with her mind.

Li Chengzuo felt that although this possibility could not be ruled out, there were probably some things that the Queen Mother was going to bring into the tomb.

However, before they could find a suitable reason for the queen mother's behavior, Zhang Deying had already hurriedly came from outside the palace, passing through layers of palace bans that no one dared to disturb, and came straight to Li Chengzuo.

"Your Majesty." Eunuch Zhang looked solemn, "The prime minister is not here for the urgent message reported by the Ministry of War, and I can't wait to hand it over to the Military Aircraft Office. This servant dared to send it directly."

Li Chengzuo glanced at him, took the booklet and glanced at it, his complexion sank.

"Eight hundred li hastened, the rebels attacked Chaoge City's Armament Office, and more than half of the food, grass, and armaments were lost." Li Chengzuo said, "Without reinforcements, Pei Wenyuan can't last ten days, and the capital is in danger."
