Rebirth: Raising an Emperor as a Wife

Seeing him pondering for a long time, Xue Yao knew that this person might suspect him, so he gave him an angry look, "How do I know, if I knew, I would have chased him back long ago. Don't look at me, I am I want to deal with her directly, but His Highness won't let me, and I can't make trouble for nothing."

Chen Zhao responded, "If it is true as you said, this matter is really weird."

Xue Yao also found it weird. He thought about all the possible people, and he couldn't think of anyone who would take Lan'er away, and who would benefit from taking Lan'er away, but he had no idea at all.

"Now this matter, I don't know who did it, and it's not easy to deal with it. I can only wait and see. When His Highness wakes up tomorrow, you tell him to let him be safe and not get bored. Just go to pay your respects to the Empress Dowager When I was about to mention the disappearance of the court lady, the Empress Dowager would know what to do. As for how the future will develop, we can only wait."

Chen Zhao asked in confusion, "Why didn't you tell him yourself?"

"I..." Xue Yao said heartily, I couldn't say that I felt sorry for him before I fell asleep, and I didn't want to disturb him, right? "You also know, His Highness, he tossed and tossed for most of the night, and he probably just fell asleep, and I didn't dare to disturb him."

This seems to make sense, Chen Zhao nodded, "Okay, I will tell His Highness tomorrow."

Fortunately, Chen Zhao didn't ask again, why didn't you go to Huzi, why did you have the nerve to bother me and so on.

Xue Yao warned again, "As for other people, don't talk about it, it's not good for too many people to know."

"I can save it." Chen Zhao is also a smart person, so he naturally knows these reasons. Looking at the time, he said, "It's too late, you go back and rest."

Xue Yao was about to leave.I heard Chen Zhao say again, "Huzi has gone to look for you many times, but why didn't you even reply? If he didn't see that you were still alive, he would have thought you were killed."

Xue Yao frowned, "Has Huzi ever looked for me?"

Chen Zhao replied affirmatively, "I searched for it no less than ten times."

Xue Yao's expression turned cold in an instant. It seems that someone deliberately didn't send him any news. That's good. Someone was full and had nothing to do to provoke him. Fortunately, he thought that being honest would satisfy the other party, but it didn't happen. , There are these disgusting methods behind the scenes.That being the case, he is not polite.During this period of time, he was honestly suffocated.

Thoughts kept running in his head, but he still said calmly, "I see, I'll wait for him outside Beihua gate tomorrow afternoon, you tell him."

Chen Zhao nodded, "Okay, be careful on the road."

Laner's body was found a few days later.

It was a rainy day that day, and it was summer. It was very rare to encounter such weather without the sun. In addition, the rain was not heavy, and the concubines in the harem wandered in the imperial garden in twos and threes with umbrellas, which seemed to be the most important thing in the garden at this time. , on the contrary, it was much more lively than usual.

The carp viewing pavilion is not free, people come to enjoy it from time to time, the few golden carp in the lake are well-raised, and when they see someone coming, they all gather together to grab food, laughing and fighting for a while.

A maid inadvertently discovered that there was something sinking and floating under the surface of the water not far from here, and asked curiously, "Hey, look, my lord, what is that over there?"

This noble person is naturally noble person Xu, and only a person of her age has the desire to play with such a leisurely rainy weather.

Xu Guiren looked in the direction of the maid's finger, and there was indeed something slowly leaning towards them, and he couldn't tell what it was right now.The palace has always been boring, and when a new thing happened, everyone stared expectantly.

Suddenly someone screamed, "Yeah."

"What's the matter, I was just surprised." Someone said dissatisfied.

"Well, that seems to be a person."

"what?"

Saying it like this scared the girls quite a bit, and someone murmured, "No way."

Xu Guiren also turned pale with fright, and hurriedly greeted people, "Quick, quick, go and tell the empress."

In a short while, the small carp viewing pavilion was crowded, and most of them were people who came to watch the excitement after hearing the news.

Empress Xue had exquisite makeup, and sat on the grand teacher's chair in the middle of it in a normal dress. She frowned as she looked at the people whispering in the pavilion, but she didn't speak.Beside her, Pearl was standing still holding a tea tray in which was a set of teacups and two plates of small snacks.Although I came in a hurry, I have prepared everything that should be prepared.

In the lower position, Concubine Chen Gui reclined, talking to Zhu Qiu on the same side from time to time.

It stands to reason that Concubine Chen Gui always ignores the affairs of the palace on weekdays, but this time when people came to report to Ciyuan Palace, Concubine Chen Guifei was talking with the Queen, so it is not easy to avoid such things. That seemed a bit deliberate, so he rushed over with the queen.

There is another person, dressed as a general, about thirty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, his eyes are like an abyss, with a sword hanging from his waist, and he has a murderous aura, which makes it hard to get close to.

I drank two cups of tea, but there was still no result, and the voice of whispering became louder.

"Have you seen it? I heard that there is not even a piece of clothing on the whole body."

"No, it looks like a seductress at first glance. Maybe she wanted to hook up with someone, but she was smashed, and that's why she died like this."

"Look at what you said," the person who answered said with a giggle, "as if you knew who she hooked up with."

"There are only a few men in this palace, and they must have escaped."

If you say this in depth, it will be ugly. Sure enough, someone with knowledge said sharply, "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't die."

All of a sudden it fell silent again.

Listening to these words, the queen's face was as calm as water, she half covered the palace fan in her hand, and asked the general, "Linfeng, have you checked it out?"

The general looked at the other corner of the pavilion. The guards were pulling white cloths to block their sight. Inside was Wu Zuo who was doing an autopsy. He bowed slightly and said, "Empress Empress, Wu Zuo is still doing autopsy, please wait a moment." .”

The general's name is Xiao Linfeng, he is the general of the Fuguo at that time, and he is a celebrity in front of the emperor.With one hundred thousand imperial guards in the capital, even the three thousand imperial guards in the palace are under his jurisdiction.He is a character that all forces want to win over.It's no wonder that Empress Xue didn't call her official position just now, but called her by his first name to show her kindness.

It's a pity that this person is a child picked up by the emperor when he was traveling abroad when he was young, and he has always only listened to the emperor's orders, which is why the emperor dared to entrust all the military power in this city to him.

It stands to reason that the life and death of a court lady does not require him to be involved at all, but his presence at least shows that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter. Also, seeing that the Queen Mother's birthday is approaching, it is indeed a bit serious for such a thing to happen in the palace.
