Chapter 544 Concubine Chen's Bedtime
Chapter 544 Concubine Chen attends bed
Seeing the two people pretending to be mysterious, Xiao Man couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Who the hell? You guys are so fast, you actually found out the owner of the house in one night."
Hearing Xiao Man's tone, Bai Chen seemed a little unhappy, so he hurriedly confessed honestly: "Returning to the county master, it's a man named Fu An."
Fu An? Xiao Man read this person's name, then looked up at Bai Chen: "Is there anything wrong with this person?"
Bai Chen smiled: "The county lord is smart. There is nothing wrong with Fu Anming's death on the surface. He is an honest businessman, and he is also a person who relies on his former minister."
Xiaoman raised his eyebrows: "You mean that Fu Anming killed the Ren family on the surface. If we follow Fu An's investigation, we may find the Ren family? What about secretly?"
Seeing Bai Chen speak, Ji Dong did not hesitate to speak, but Xiao Man continued at the end of his sentence: "It really sounds like a coincidence."
"When I went to investigate last night, I happened to meet that Fu An to greet the real master. By the way, I haven't told the county master who the real master is."
"Master, you must never have imagined that the real master behind Fu An is the Qi family."
Qi family? Xiaoman's mind shook for a while, and a family appeared in his mind: "The Qi family you are talking about, but the Qi family where Qi Zhongtian and old Qi belong to?"
Lin Yi nodded: "I didn't expect you to guess the master right away. It is indeed the Qi family. The Qi family has been keeping a low profile these years. I didn't expect that there are so many schemes behind the scenes."
Xiaoman couldn't help being a little funny when he heard Ji Dong's words: "You said, the Qi family has been keeping a low profile for so many years? Qi Chengyuan is not low-key at all."
"Speaking of which, if the emperor hadn't insisted on it back then, the one who came to be your general would have been Qi Chengyuan. It's just that the county lord is a little puzzled."
"If the person behind Fu An's family is killed by the Qi family, then the Qi family and my Chen family have no grievances, why would they go to such great lengths to exterminate my Chen family?"
Lin Yi and Bai Chen were also speechless for a while, and they lowered their heads: "This matter has not been found out, and we just found out, the house is dead to Fu An."
"I'm still not sure if Fu An knows about the secret passage under the house."
Xiaoman frowned: "Forget it, this matter is full of fog, take your time, anyway, I spent so much effort last time, but there was nothing to gain."
"I think the other party will settle down for a while, and dare not do anything to our Chen family members so presumptuously, but the county lord is still a little worried."
"So I recruited the two of you here, Bai Chen, you come to investigate this matter, Lin Yi, you are responsible for protecting my family, so let's do this first."
"The county lord has not slept all night and is going to rest."
After finishing speaking, the two of them were ignored, and the two of them were taken down by the housekeeper, while Xiaoman went back to the room to rest. Sometimes things are just such a coincidence.
Not long after Xiaoman went back to his room to rest, the Qi family that we talked about just now actually sent someone to send an invitation. The butler accepted it very politely.
In the afternoon, Xiaoman woke up, and the housekeeper came over: "Master, at noon, the Qi family sent an invitation card."
"The Qi family's youngest daughter's Jiji ceremony, the county head is invited to attend."
Xiaoman raised her eyebrows, to be honest, Qian Jiujiu didn't like such occasions, and she didn't like them either, so for such a long time, except for the banquet held by the palace.
She has never attended any banquets at all, and everyone in the capital knows that she doesn't like to participate in such banquets. At this time, it seems a bit ignorant that the Qi family sent an invitation.
However, it happened that Xiaoman also planned to go to Qi's house for a walk, and looked at the housekeeper: "When is it?"
The housekeeper originally just reported it as a matter of routine, and never thought that Xiao Man would go, but now he looked at Xiao Man unexpectedly: "The county lord is going?"
Xiaoman nodded: "I'm going to go, you can see what time it is, get ready, I'm going to go."
The butler nodded: "Understood the county lord, the time is 2 days later, the slave will go get someone to prepare it for you, the county lord can rest assured."
Xiaoman smiled: "Of course I don't worry about the housekeeper's work, so let's go."
The steward then resigned and left. At this time, the palace also sent news that the imperial concubine was finally safe and sound, but her body was still very weak and she needed to recuperate.
And the emperor also went to the queen's residence, wanting to lift the ban on the emperor. When Xiaoman heard the news, he couldn't help laughing, I'm afraid the emperor won't see the queen's good face again this time.
And the fact is similar to what Xiaoman thought, the emperor arrived in the queen's palace, the queen is playing with the eldest prince, and the eldest prince can now crawl on the bed.
It's also more fun, the emperor looked at the big prince lying on the bed: "Come on, Yin'er, come quickly, come to the queen mother."
The eldest prince stretched his calves, and when he was about to crawl towards the queen, he heard the eunuch's voice: "The emperor is here."
The queen couldn't help frowning, watching the emperor come in, she still bowed to the emperor: "The concubine greets the emperor, the emperor is auspicious. I don't know if the emperor is not in Qinghe Palace to accompany the concubine, what is the matter here?"
"Could it be that I remembered it and felt that the foot restraint was not enough, and I wanted to scold my concubine?"
The emperor's face suddenly turned ugly, and he looked at the queen: "What did the queen say? Is I the kind of unreasonable person? Besides, it has been proven now."
"The empress is completely innocent, and grounding or something naturally doesn't count."
The queen sneered: "Why, the emperor now believes that the concubine is innocent? But the emperor's faults that have been changed from day to day, is it right to change it?"
"If this goes on like this, your sincerity, Your Majesty, will be compromised."
The emperor frowned: "I know that the queen has some opinions on the matter of confinement, but do you have to say that? You are the mother of a country, what does it look like to be so yin and yang?"
Hearing the emperor's accusation, the queen just smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, if you don't want to listen to my concubine, promise, the palace gate is there, you can go."
The emperor was stunned, looking at the queen in front of him: "Why, is the queen planning to break with me?"
The corner of the queen's mouth twitched: "What did the emperor say? You are the sky in this palace, how dare the concubine break with you, it's just that he doesn't want to wrong the emperor."
"Since you don't want to talk to your concubine, then don't talk."
The emperor was so stunned by the queen that he had nothing to say, he really had no intention of not wanting to talk to the queen, besides, he came to inform the queen that she didn't need to be grounded.
Now that the words have been spoken, seeing the queen loathe him so much, when the emperor was about to go back home, he saw the little man crawling up and down on the bed.
Immediately a face of surprise: "Yin'er can crawl?"
The queen's eyes turned cold, Yin'er is more than nine months old now, what's so strange about crawling? Looking at the emperor: "Your Majesty, don't be surprised, Yin'er has already crawled."
"Speaking of which, the emperor's heirs are weak, and the concubine's younger sister finally had a child but didn't know how to cherish it. Hey, the emperor will continue to turn his cards around tonight."
"At least let the sisters in the harem have their own children. Come here and ask Xiao Suzi to bring all the cards over. The emperor will turn over the cards here."
The emperor originally planned to accompany the concubine at night, so he frowned: "I will stay in Qinghe Palace tonight."
The queen blinked her eyes, her face was shocked, as if to say, why are you such a beast? The imperial concubine just had a miscarriage, so you can do it?
The emperor was annoyed by the look of the queen: "Why is the queen looking at me like this?"
The queen suddenly smiled: "Your majesty, the imperial concubine has just had a miscarriage. I'm afraid it will offend you. Let her recuperate slowly in Qinghe Palace. As for your majesty."
"You have more important things to do! This matter of heirs is much more important than the imperial concubine."
While speaking, Xiao Suzi had already entered with a sign: "Your servant will see the emperor, empress."
The emperor glanced at Xiao Suzi and didn't speak, but the queen said: "Let's get down, bring the sign over and let the emperor turn over the sign."
The imperial concubine did so much just to keep her by her side, but how could she let the imperial concubine's scheme succeed? You are going to die or get sick, it's up to you.
Here the emperor must continue to flip the cards, and must continue to pamper the concubines in the palaces. Thinking of this, the empress's vision deepened.
Seeing that the emperor didn't move, he couldn't help but walked to the side of the sign, stretched out his hand and took one: "Your Majesty, how about this precious beauty going to bed tonight?"
"Speaking of which, I'm afraid the emperor doesn't know who this precious beauty is? This is the daughter of the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and she is also a well-known beauty. The emperor is very lucky."
The queen said and looked at the emperor, the emperor was silent, the queen didn't care, just took the sign and continued to turn over one, and then paused.
"Your Majesty, guess whose brand the concubine found?"
These words kept being said, as if the two had a pleasant conversation, but the emperor's face was something no one could ignore, it was so dark that it was ugly.
The queen was serious, pretending not to see it: "The emperor is really boring. If you don't guess, then the concubine will say it. This is not someone else."
"It's the emperor's cousin, concubine Chen. Speaking of which, concubine Chen will be in the palace for a while, and the emperor should go there. If the emperor has no objection."
"Little Suzi, go and inform Concubine Chen that she will be in bed tonight."
Little Suzi looked at the emperor. The emperor still had a gloomy and terrifying face, but the queen didn't care.
Hearing the Queen's words, Xiao Suzi saluted again and went out, of course to inform Concubine Chen to go to bed. After Xiao Suzi went out, the queen continued to speak.
"Your majesty, if you don't go to Concubine Chen's palace, I'm afraid Concubine Chen will be very sad."
