Jiang Zhou followed Lu Ling to meet the mysterious man, and then entered the palace to meet the empress.
"Your Majesty, Prince Xiqi and I saw a woman in black, and we got into an argument."
Xiao Li didn't want to pay attention to him, but he said these things, making her unable to ignore him.
"What's the fuss?"
Jiang Zhou had a dull expression on his face. "It seems the two of them are collaborating to deal with Your Majesty. The woman in black covets Prince Xiqi, but Prince Xiqi says he only truly loves Your Majesty..."
Lu Ling didn't show up, but his confession did.
Lu Ling was going crazy, but the empress ignored him coldly. During the whole process, only Jiang Zhou was seriously injured.
"The woman looked very young, around twenty years old. She was covered in a black veil, and her entire body was wrapped. I couldn't see her face clearly, but Prince Xiqi called her a fake."
Fake?
This word is very interesting.
"What else did you say?"
Jiang Zhou shook his head. "They cursed at each other and then went their separate ways. They should have continued to cooperate, but Prince Xiqi looked down on him, and he also disliked him."
They argued for a long time, but no important words were said. What was said left him confused. He didn't understand why they had to meet and talk a lot of nonsense.
As soon as he left there, Lu Ling kicked him into the palace.
Jiang Zhou finally understood that he was now the envoy between Lu Ling and the empress, serving as the boundary between them.
He is a minister of the empress. The empress knows his relationship with Lu Ling and uses him to control her.
Lu Ling knew that the empress would not kill him easily, so he deliberately made up some messages that he could not understand but the empress could understand and asked him to pass them on, purely bullying him.
To have such an emperor and brothers.
The coptis chinensis is not bitter, but his life is bitter.
Xiao Li originally wanted to wave his hand to let Jiang Zhou go, but he stopped the moment he raised his hand.
"Rong Qing."
Rong Qing came in: "I'm here."
A cold look flashed across Xiao Li's eyes: "Take him to meet all the women on the list."
Jiang Zhou instantly understood the Empress' intention and quickly said, "Your Majesty, I really don't recognize that person. He was wrapped in black gauze and a bamboo hat, so tightly wrapped that I really couldn't recognize him."
Xiao Li glanced at him meaningfully: "I didn't expect you to recognize it."
This afternoon, Jiang Zhou was dragged across almost the entire capital, doing only one thing the entire time.
Rong Qing dragged him in front of the woman, made him point his finger, and shouted, "It's her!"
Then Rong Qing arrested people.
"It's her, it's her, it's her..."
Jiang Zhou collapsed on the table exhausted, completely baffled. "What do you think Your Majesty means?"
After pointing at and yelling at someone for no reason for the entire afternoon, Jiang Zhou felt like a fool. The only three words in his mind were "It's her", as if he was possessed by a ghost.
Lu Ling drank her tea leisurely, smiling beautifully: "The people you are referring to are all those suspected by the Empress."
Jiang Zhou stared at him, trying to read his face to see if there was anything fishy going on. "Obviously, those aren't the ones the Empress caught."
Lu Ling didn't look panicked at all, not even surprised.
Lu Ling shook his head: "You are wrong. The Empress is not trying to arrest anyone, but to confirm her suspicions."
guess?
Lu Ling: "An unlikely truth and a bunch of possible illusions. If we exclude those illusions..."
"That's the unlikely answer!" Jiang Zhou excitedly replied, "So the Empress has already guessed who it is!"
"Who is it then?" Jiang Zhou was also curious.
Lu Ling: "You know, it's not good for you."
Jiang Zhou was speechless: "Have I gained any benefit now?"
He was almost bullied to death.
Seeing Lu Ling's unfathomable look, he sneered unhappily: "Go ahead and keep trying, and see how you end up."
Lu Ling played with the gemstones on his clothes and said, "I will marry you, the Empress. Remember to prepare a generous gift."
Jiang Zhou rolled his eyes at him.
Wild ideas, daydreaming, and mental illness.
"I just became an official and have only received two months' salary. It's not even enough to buy you a coffin."
He felt that Lu Ling was seeking death. Last time he only killed a wizard, but at that time he was the only one who could save Rong Qing.
In order to save Rong Qing, he turned himself into a monster, which can be considered as offsetting his merits and demerits.
But this time he directly conspired to rebel. If the empress allowed him to live on this charge, it would be unworthy of her reputation as a tyrant.
Jiang Zhou just complained simply, but Lu Ling seemed quite satisfied after hearing it.
"This is a nice gift. The material isn't important, but remember to make it spacious so you can lie down comfortably."
Jiang Zhou: “…”
------------
"Your Majesty, someone set fire to Lady Wang Wanqing's residence. Fortunately, rescue came in time and Lady Wang only suffered minor injuries."
Wang Wanqing was sent to the palace with half of her arm burned and most of her beautiful hair burned away.
Xiao Li went to see her. The usually delicate girl was very strong and didn't shed a single tear. "Your Majesty, it's just a minor injury. Don't worry."
Xiao Li had just finished looking at Wang Wanqing when the Silver-Armored Guards hurriedly came carrying someone over.
"Your Majesty, Lord Feng was assassinated and injured."
Feng Yin was carried in on a stretcher, with two arrows stuck in his shoulder and arm, and he was unconscious.
Cen An took the people in and turned to Xiao Li and said, "Your Majesty, please, quickly deal with these traitors. The Imperial Hospital is almost full."
Cen An was just complaining, but to Xiao Li, it was nothing but a naked mockery.
It was her incompetence as an emperor that allowed the other party to be so arrogant.
Song Junzhan happened to come over and frowned when he heard this, but he was not in a hurry to plead for Cen An. His Majesty was not that narrow-minded.
