Something was wrong. The emperor was a person who never let anything go to heart and always looked confident. When did he look so nervous? Could it be that something really happened that made the emperor unable to control his emotions?
Just as she was about to go out to inquire, she saw Xiao Liang coming towards her in a hurry towards the imperial study.
Qiao Yuange quickly caught up with him, and without caring about any rules and etiquette, he grabbed Xiao Liang's arm and asked him: "King Liang, did something happen?"
Even Xiao Liang, the usually carefree prince, had a serious look on his face, and seemed to have no patience at all. However, when he turned around and saw that it was Qiao Yuange, he put away his anger and said to Qiao Yuange in a low voice, "General Shu was ambushed and injured on his way back to the capital. The initial judgment was that the enemy country did it, so I came here to see what to do."
How could he be assassinated on the way back to Beijing?
Qiao Yuange frowned and immediately asked curiously: "Since you are returning to Beijing, isn't that going to our own country? How could someone from another country assassinate the general? Could it be that a spy has infiltrated our country?"
Xiao Liang's usually very handsome face twisted into a ball. When he heard what Qiao Yuange said, he looked at Qiao Yuange curiously, and finally sighed heavily, as if he had thought of something.
He then said, "Since this has happened, my brother will be very busy these two days. As the emperor's eldest maid, you must take good care of the emperor."
Just as Qiao Yuange was about to nod, she saw Aunt Hua rushing over from a distance. When she saw Qiao Yuange, she was like a mosquito seeing blood. She pointed at Qiao Yuange, signaling her not to leave, and rushed over to her and said, "The Queen Mother wants to see you."
Bad luck! Damn it!
It turned out that she was still burdened with misunderstandings at this time. The head nanny and the maid who came over this morning thought that she had some relationship with the emperor. She was just about to go to the emperor to explain, but the empress dowager came to her again.
The Queen Mother disliked Qiao Yuange and even blamed Qiao Yuange for Concubine Ming's expulsion from the palace.
The emperor naturally couldn't take care of her. If the empress dowager really wanted to do something to Qiao Yuange at this moment, she probably couldn't rely on the emperor.
Although Xiao Liang was anxious to go to the emperor, he saw Qiao Yuange subconsciously hiding behind him, so he quickly turned around and whispered, "Don't you want to go to see the queen mother? If you say so, the prince will take you to the emperor."
Qiao Yuange just shook his head, seeming a little helpless, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Xiao Liang: "It doesn't matter, anyway, the Queen Mother is always holding back, and she will take action sooner or later. Since this is the case, let's try it once and see what she is going to do."
After finishing speaking, Qiao Yuange walked in front of Aunt Hua. Xiao Liang looked at Qiao Yuange's back and suddenly felt a little sad, but more importantly, he was curious. Why did the Queen Mother have to target Qiao Yuange?
After Nanny Hua saluted Xiao Liang, she immediately looked up at Qiao Yuange slowly walking towards her. Her eyes flashed, and there was even a hint of compassion on that rather ordinary face.
Of course, Qiao Yuange also saw this expression, and suddenly laughed, and said to Aunt Hua: "Why do you have such an expression? Could it be that the Queen Mother's visit to me this time is not for good reasons?"
Aunt Hua just shook her head and even pursed her lips.
Then, Aunt Hua walked in front and arrived at the Yangxin Palace. The Queen Mother did not drink tea like before, but sat upright and looked at Qiao Yuange.
After Qiao Yuange bowed, she said calmly, "Does the Queen Mother want to see me for something important?"
The empress dowager pursed her lips, chuckled, then pointed at Xiao Yuli, who was sitting silently next to her.
Only then did Qiao Yuange realize that Xiao Yuli was also here, and he immediately became curious. It seemed that he had always wanted to know that thing before, and these two people finally thought it through today. Are they planning to tell it out?
Isn't it a bit too extravagant to use such a grand ceremony for a maid like her?
Xiao Yuli raised his head slowly, with some guilt and sadness in his eyes, as if he wanted to tell Qiao Yuange something very sad.
Qiao Yuange thought to himself, is this necessary?
But she still patiently said to Xiao Yuli: "Before, I always wanted to ask the virtuous king about this, but the virtuous king was always unwilling to say it, and even hoped that I would marry him. Now, I think I have come to my senses and am planning to take the initiative to tell him?"
Xiao Yuli opened his mouth, seeming a little embarrassed, but still gave the Queen Mother a look, and the Queen Mother said: "I came here this time to talk to you about your Qiao family and your father's relationship."
Father?
If you didn't hear it wrongly, the word the Queen Mother used just now should be this word.
As we all know, this word is used exclusively for princes. Could it be that Qiao Yuange's father was a prince before?
————
Here, Xiao Liang watched Qiao Yuange being taken away by the Queen Mother. He felt a little nervous and immediately went to the imperial study.
Xiao Yun was apparently in the imperial study, buried in a pile of memorials.
The general's incident really made the court panic. Some ministers thought that there must be an assassin. All ministers would be in danger and hoped that the emperor could dispatch some troops to them.
Sometimes, even when he went to court, he had to send more than ten people to protect him, for fear that someone might suddenly appear from nowhere and kill him.
At this time, everyone is in danger and every tree and grass looks like an enemy.
Some people even wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and share some resources with the emperor.
The emperor pushed the memorial aside and paced in the imperial study, obviously upset about this incident.
At this time, Xiao Liang pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing the emperor's expression, he immediately knew what was going on.
However, he was still worried about Qiao Yuange's safety, so he said to the emperor: "Royal brother, Qiao Yuange was called by the Queen Mother, and it is not a good thing for her to take a fancy to him."
The emperor had been upset for a long time. After such a thing happened, it made the emperor even more upset. He gritted his teeth and said to Xiao Liang: "Let's go. I want to see what the queen mother is going to do."
Xiao Liang certainly didn't understand why the emperor would be angry about this. There was no reason for him to be angry.
The Queen Mother wanted to attack Qiao Yuange at this time, but it was impossible, after all, the Emperor had already given a death sentence. Qiao Yuange, he was safe!
Why did the Queen Mother insist on provoking Qiao Yuange?
The Queen Mother said to Qiao Yuange: "Your father is a brave and skilled warrior, and the pillar of our country."
