Chapter 520 Queen Mother
This is different from the past. The Sixth Prince is so old now, and he cannot agree.
Sure enough, at noon, the Sixth Prince got the news and ran back to Yufu Palace.
Shen Chuliu just woke up and had no strength left after her fever subsided. Seeing him so anxious, she said, "You know everything? Mom is fine, don't panic."
"Why are you sick if you're fine?" The Sixth Prince's eyes were red, and he was almost scared to death.
"I'm scared. Mom is most afraid of those things." Shen Chuliu smiled and waved: "Come."
The Sixth Prince went over with red eyes: "Are you really okay?"
"It's really okay. Don't be afraid." Shen Chuliu patted his head: "Your father and mother have already asked people to start investigating."
"Who is so bold as to want to kill my mother?" The Sixth Prince was so angry that he burst into tears.
He wiped it fiercely and said, "Let my son know. He will kill them!"
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Mom is fine." Shen Chuliu hugged him and said, "Your Ruiqing Palace should also be carefully inspected, inside and out."
"Yeah." The Sixth Prince felt a little embarrassed for crying, and sniffed again: "Mom, are you in great pain?"
"It's okay. I just had a fever and now I have no strength. Let's ask someone to serve the food. I'll have strength after eating."
The Sixth Prince nodded.
Because I have cried, I am especially silent.
So when Qi Yixiu came over, he saw that both mother and daughter looked listless.
Seeing him coming, everyone greeted him.
The Sixth Prince immediately became alert: "Father, Father, someone wants to harm my mother, Father, please help my mother!"
"Okay, okay, don't worry. Father knows. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Justice are already investigating it. Don't worry." Qi Yixiu knew at a glance that the child had cried.
"This is too bad! Father, we must not let them off easily once we find out what happened!" the Sixth Prince shouted.
"Yes, Father knows."
"Okay, Yan'er, it's time to eat. Your father didn't sleep well last night, so he must be very tired now." Shen Chuliu smiled.
"Let's set the table first, and we can talk after we finish eating," she said.
Soon, the meal was served. Qi Yixiu had not slept well so his appetite was not so good.
Shen Chuliu was sick, so naturally he had no appetite.
The Sixth Prince usually ate a lot every day, but today the circumstances were special and he didn't feel like eating much.
It was Shen Chuliu who persuaded him to eat as usual before he felt relieved.
"Yan'er, if you don't want to sleep, go back. Mother still needs to check carefully here and doesn't want to keep you. Go back and ask Yulou to take a good look at your residence." Shen Chuliu said.
The Sixth Prince looked at his mother, then at his father, and nodded: "Yes, then father and mother should have a good rest. I will take my leave now."
After seeing off the Sixth Prince, Qi Yixiu had already entered the inner room.
After a whole morning of cleaning up, the inner room is now ready.
The hole was also checked by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it has now been repaired.
So it's been cleaned up.
Although Shen Chuliu felt a little nervous, he was not afraid to come in.
But all the things on her bed have been replaced, and the old ones can only be disposed of and will not be used again.
Going to bed again at this moment, Shen Chuliu looked listless.
"If you don't feel comfortable living in this Yufu Palace, move to another palace when you get better." Qi Yixiu looked at her like this, smiled and sat down.
"No, there won't be this again. I like it here." Shen Chuliu smiled: "I just don't know who is so cruel. To harm me in this way."
"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly and clear your name." Qi Yixiu said.
After all, this is not the time when he first ascended the throne. Who can ask him to be tolerant? Shen Chuliu nodded.
Qi Yixiu watched her drink the medicine brought by Chi Su, and said, "I'll lie down with you for a while, there's no need to worry."
"Well. The emperor did not sleep well last night, so it would be good for him to have a good sleep." Shen Chuliu said after rinsing his mouth.
The two of them lay down and fell asleep quickly.
In the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Yuanxiao has always been following.
Supervisor Luo was almost bald: "We have to recruit back all those who participated in the renovation of Yufu Palace. There are only a few of them. Which ones are responsible for the walls?"
"It's hard to say that we are only responsible for the wall. I'm afraid that this hole can only be hidden after the bed is placed. But if we ask, at least we can know when this hole was built."
Yuanxiao didn't say anything, just listened and watched. However, since he was here to monitor the situation, the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had to do their best.
But in the beginning, I didn't dare to be careless about this matter.
Shen Chuliu had a fever again in the afternoon, but it was not serious.
She is in a good mood and hasn't been sick for several years, so this is also a good thing.
Qi Yixiu stayed with her for a while and then went to the queen.
People from the Internal Criminal Department also arrived. They acted quickly and quickly gathered together all the people who had renovated the Yufu Palace. Most of them were eunuchs in the palace, and there was also a team of civil engineering workers arranged by the Ministry of Works.
That team will be late, maybe we can find it tomorrow.
After listening to their report, Qi Yixiu had an idea. Now he just had to find out when this cave existed and then follow the clues to find the source.
But at the same time, they were also investigating how the scorpion came from and which eunuch or palace maid walked over here yesterday.
The Queen also investigated again, so naturally she was very angry. It was really hard to guard against such direct harm to others.
Today we are in Yufu Palace, and someone here wants to change the queen?
Each palace conducted its own investigation and naturally found out something, but those that could not be disclosed were mostly kept secret by the individuals themselves.
There is no problem like Shen Chuliu.
Concubine Mei was also shocked. It was a good thing that the accident happened in Yufu Palace. If it happened in Changle Palace, she would have had a miscarriage after such a shock.
How could she not be afraid?
"Really?" Empress Dowager Li stood up in surprise after hearing what Nanny Hua said.
"Indeed, Zhao San really went out in the middle of the night yesterday. This sinner, we can't get anything out of him now. It can't be him, right?"
"Ask me carefully." Empress Dowager Li said angrily, "Ask Jingzhe here."
"Oh." Nanny Hua was also very worried.
Whether the Queen Mother likes Concubine Jing or not, she cannot get involved in this scandal at this time. How could the Queen Mother do such a thing?
Soon, Jingzhe arrived, and he was also very angry: "My queen, Zhao San has been arrested, but he is stubborn and said that he just went out for a walk and refused to say where he went. This... this is not a good thing to send him directly to the Internal Criminal Department. Isn't this... asking for trouble?"
"Then ask me carefully!" Empress Dowager Li said angrily, "If you can't find out the answer, I will torture you."
"Yes." Jingzhe thought, if this was punished, wouldn't it be even more difficult to say?
Empress Dowager Li knew that it was Zhao San who went out, and it was impossible for the people from the Internal Criminal Department to fail to find out.
So when Qi Yixiu heard that it was someone close to Empress Dowager Li, his face immediately turned dark.
He knew rationally that it couldn't be his mother, but he would be just as angry no matter who had plotted against him.
However, Empress Dowager Li did not order anyone to lynch Zhao San in the end. It would have been bad if she couldn't explain herself clearly at that time.
The person was still taken to the Internal Criminal Department.
Empress Dowager Li went to Taiji Palace in person.
