Chapter 489: The escaped palace maid is most likely the queen mother in disguise?



Before anyone could react, Eunuch Li's voice was heard outside the hall.

"emperor......"

Upon seeing this, Concubine Li stood up and wanted to pick up Jun Baozhu to avoid her, but the prince was faster.

Concubine Chaoli bowed and took Jun Baozhu from the emperor's arms, then walked a few steps to the side door.

After entering the palace, Eunuch Li reported:

"Your Majesty, there seems to be something wrong over at the Cining Palace..."

The emperor frowned and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Eunuch Li: "The eunuchs serving in the Cining Palace reported that the Empress Dowager has been irritable since she woke up. She refused to let the imperial physician get close to her and threw a lot of things.

It is said that just now, a scream was heard from the Cining Palace, which sounded like the voice of a palace maid.

The guards arranged by the Second Prince did not dare to enter easily, and all the other eunuchs and palace maids were kicked out. "

Behind the side door, Jun Baozhu was in the prince's arms, listening to every word.

[Ah? What happened to the Queen Mother? ]

[Knowing that you are imprisoned, are you going crazy? 】

The prince heard this, and his originally heavy mood softened when he looked at his sister's clever look in his arms.

Thinking of the "crazy" in his sister's voice, his eyes couldn't help but darken and he continued to look outside the door.

The second prince stood up and said, "Father, may I go and take a look?"

The emperor nodded and stood up. "I will go with you. Before that, go and bring someone along."

Jun Baozhu was surprised when she heard what the emperor said, [Madame Qin?]

[What does Father plan to do? ]

The system analyzes in the sea of consciousness:

[After several rounds of interrogation, Nanny Qin has already confessed everything she should have confessed...]

[Not a single word has been revealed so far. It seems that this is a tough nut to crack. There is little point in leaving any more.]

[The emperor let them meet as master and servant, maybe he could find a flaw.]

Jun Baozhu suddenly realized and admired in her heart:

[It is indeed my father! Awesome! 】

[I am looking forward to seeing how my father will deal with this old witch! ]

"Old witch?"

The prince looked at his sister with sparkling eyes and thought the description was very apt.

The Emperor, Empress, Concubine Li and Eunuch Li were still waiting outside the palace.

The second prince was gone for half an hour.

During this time, he asked the guards to come to Xuanzheng Hall to report that Nanny Qin had died and he would be back later.

【Madame Qin is dead? 】

Jun Baozhu was also a little surprised and asked the system.

After the system answered, Jun Baozhu thought:

[When the Second Prince arrived, Nanny Qin had just died? ]

【Bleeding from all seven orifices?】

The prince's eyes narrowed.

[Insect? ]

[Second Prince, the imperial physician has just finished the examination and could not find the cause of the illness. Is the coroner performing an autopsy? ]

[Didn't the guard notice? ]

Although Jun Baozhu also understood that even if the soldiers discovered it, it would be of no use.

So far, no effective means of controlling the southern red poison has been found.

Except for the body that has completely become a puppet, it can only be destroyed by fire.

[After the soldier finished his patrol, he took a few steps and heard a scream behind him. Aunt Qin? ]

[So, Nanny Qin was killed by the Queen Mother? I can't think of anyone else except her.]

[There is no evidence at present, but there will be soon? ]

[What? Something happened in the Cining Palace? It's in chaos now?]

[The coroner finished the autopsy and found that, like the previous palace maids and eunuchs, there were many holes in the internal organs. Was there a dead poisonous insect in the body? ]

【What happened to Cining Palace? 】

[The second prince's elder brother is on his way. Has he sent someone to report to the emperor? ]

Upon hearing this, the prince immediately pushed the door open...

Eunuch Li heard the noise and quickly retreated to the other side door.

"Father, Baozhu said that something happened in the Cining Palace!

My second brother is on his way there, and the person who brought the news is on his way here.

Baozhu also said that Nanny Qin had blood coming out of all her orifices, and her condition was similar to Nanny Gui's. My second brother arranged for a coroner to examine her, and after checking, they found that she was indeed infected with a Gu worm."

"What?"

The Emperor stood up, the Empress also looked worried, and Concubine Li stood up at the same time.

"I'll go over and take a look, you guys..."

Before the emperor finished speaking, the queen spoke up, "Your Majesty, let's go together! If there is something wrong, maybe Concubine Li and Baozhu can help."

The emperor looked at Jun Baozhu and without hesitation, he and his group set off.

As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, he saw a guard coming and kneeling down.

"Your Majesty, there is something unusual in the Cining Palace. Your Highness is on the way there. The Second Prince sent me to report this!"

The emperor raised his hand and took a few steps forward.

Jun Baozhu was still in the prince's arms. Concubine Li originally wanted to take her away, but the prince was sympathetic and insisted on holding her himself.

Jun Baozhu was very worried and kept thinking:

[How are you now? ]

[Has the Second Prince arrived? ]

[I'm so worried! Will the Second Prince be in danger? ]

[Shouldn't? What do you mean by shouldn't? ]

[What? There was a riot in front of the palace gate, the guards were checking closely, and a palace maid with great martial arts skills escaped? ]

[Who is this palace maid? When did such a person hide in the palace? Is she an assassin?]

[Also, I am asking about the Second Prince who is on his way to the Cining Palace...]

[What? There is only a dead body in the Cining Palace now. Since no one has entered, the identity cannot be ascertained...]

[The "palace maid" who escaped is most likely the queen mother in disguise? 】

【What? ! 】

Jun Baozhu's heart suddenly became more excited.
