Chapter 373: Cured in Minutes
Xiao Tu laughed sweetly upon hearing that, hugged the man's neck, and jumped hard with her legs, jumping directly onto the man's waist.
Ning Cuo held her little butt with his hands at the same time, kissing her sweetly and bubblingly while laughing and spinning around.
Outside the palace gate, Xiao Lezi, who had been sweating all night, was now pricking up his ears to eavesdrop on the laughter coming from inside, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
My master was so scary last night, but this lady has only been awake for a short time and she is already laughing like this!
It goes without saying that their lady is really capable. No matter how abnormal the Duke Du is, she can cure him in minutes!
Xiao Lezi was so happy that he was about to sing a little song, but at this time the entire official residence in the capital was in an uproar.
In the horizon, the night had already quietly ended, roosters crowed in the palace, and the sky became bright.
At the early morning court session, all the officials gathered in the Qinzheng Hall in a hurry.
Last night, a huge fire broke out in the rear hall of the imperial palace, not only killing the emperor, but also all the concubines and princes in the palace were burned to ashes!
When this huge event happened, the whole court was shocked!
So early in the morning, all the officials gathered in the hall in panic, their nerves were on edge, and they were talking in low voices anxiously!
However, among this group of people, apart from the Du Gong's followers, there were actually quite a few who did not find it that surprising.
In the main hall, Lord Xie looked at Ji Qinghe, who didn't engage in conversation, and said with a smile, "Grand Secretary Ji is indeed worthy of being a veteran of two dynasties. Even after such a big incident, he is still as steady as a rock!"
Ji Qinghe glanced back at him, "My Lord, isn't it the same? The Empress in the palace is your aunt, and you still don't show any sadness, do you?"
Lord Xie cursed the old fox in his heart, saying that he never suffered any loss. Then he said calmly, "Master Ji, please don't make fun of this. You know that when my aunt insisted on entering the palace to compete for the supreme honor, she had a falling out with her family.
My father had told her at the time that the current emperor was not a good match, but she was proud and arrogant, and she thought she was very smart, so she was sure that the emperor would look at her differently.
As a result, during those years when she was fighting for power in the harem, her father was poisoned to death because of her. After that, she gave up and retired to the harem, but she still refused to give up.
"I'm not unaware of what she's done in the palace over the years. I've tried to persuade her, I've argued with her, but now that it's come to this, I can only sigh and say there's nothing I can do!"
Anyway, the prince is not the emperor's child. If it weren't for the fact that their Marquis' Mansion was terrified and tried every means to keep it a secret for her, the entire Marquis' Mansion would have been buried with her just for the fact that the queen had defiled the harem and tried to confuse the royal bloodline!
Ji Qinghe looked at Lord Xie in surprise after he told him so much. He thought that this man must have been holding it in for too long. Besides, all the royal family members were dead at this moment. If he told them, would anyone be able to do anything to him?
Moreover, Ji Qinghe's eyes flashed with shrewdness, and then he smiled meaningfully and said, "I am shortsighted. I guess the Marquis has already secretly joined the service of Governor Ning?"
Lord Xie smiled upon hearing this and decided not to hide it any longer. There was no need to do so anyway. Instead, he said frankly with a smile, "If not, how could my mansion still exist?"
Ji Qinghe's eyes flashed, and then he clasped his fists and said admiringly, "Your Majesty really has a keen eye. I have underestimated you!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Hou laughed and shook his head, "It's all just luck, thanks to Madam Xiao!"
