Chapter 187: Departure

"This is really great!" Empress Ji was the first to react, raising her sleeve to cover her mouth, softly saying, "Mao Jieyu has always relied on Xile, and heard that this courtesan has disappeared, and in these two days she really didn't want to think about her meals, and heaven forbid His Majesty brought her back.... Your Majesty, where is the unknown Xile? Have to hurry to let Mao Jieyu take back to take care of it."

Yun Feng Huang's heart was beating furiously as he followed and nodded, "Yes, I am grateful to Your Majesty for bringing Xile back, my concubine will lead her back to the tent so as not to disturb the people in the imperial court and delay them from serving Your Majesty."

The concubines all had one thought in mind: since Xile was burned all over her body to the point of being completely disfigured, it was obvious that the situation was very bad, so perhaps she hadn't yet had time to say anything she shouldn't have to the Emperor?

Otherwise, why would the Emperor have spoken out to test the waters, instead of just ordering them to be taken down and then thoroughly investigated?

So the best thing to do now is to get Heele!

When the time comes, there is no evidence, even if the emperor heard Xiluo tell some treasonous things beforehand, he can still say that this courtesan is ambitious and intends to instigate the harem.

"This is not necessary, aifei is not scared?" However, what they can think of, how could the emperor not think of, smiled and refused, "Xile burns are very serious, the appearance is horrible, I look at it all feel intolerable to see, how can I hand it over to the consort?"

"Your Majesty is right." Empress Ji busily said, "Your Majesty is in charge of everything day in and day out, so where is a mere palace maid worthy of Your Majesty's personal concern? As Empress, it is my duty to take care of all the people in the harem."

The emperor said peacefully, "the empress these days is also hard, around just a courtesan, still do not know save live save not live, why bother you worry? I let the wild goose guide look at it, wait for people to slow down and then say it."

Without giving the consort another chance to speak up, he turned his head and asked the leader of the forbidden army who had gone to summon him earlier, "Has he not come yet?"

The Empress and Yun Feng Huang had no choice but to bless and retreat behind the screen.

With a screen to cover the emperor's line of sight, the consort had no choice but to compare the communication of this matter: now the situation is urgent, the two did not have the heart to calculate Xile this courtesan in the end who is the person, and betrayed who such a problem, after all, once Xile know the things are confessed, both of them who also do not want to run!

Empress Ji was very angry, because she had asked Qi Jiulu for Xiluo before, but was rejected without any room for maneuver, Qi Jiulu had sworn to guarantee that Xiluo would not bring any trouble to the Empress as a result, the person turned his head and fell into the Emperor's hands!

Yun Feng Huang face is also not good, she does not think Xile district a palace girl can rely on their own to escape from the hands of Qi Jiulu, but also so coincidentally bumped into the emperor ... here to not have inside information that is to see a ghost!

The question is, what exactly is the inside story?

What are the consequences?

None of this is known, none of it is known.

Just in the consort silent thinking between, outside the forbidden army leader low brow obediently into the audience, after three hail, listening to the emperor asked the cause of the fire, the leader trembling said, "back to your majesty's words, the micro minister checked the situation in the vicinity, really do not know that the fire that led to the stone grease water from where to come from ... "

Stone fat water is also called stone paint or oil, its color like paint, floating on the water, burning extremely bright. Just because of the burning of soot, not for the rich and powerful, seldom seen in the big family. Instead, some people in the former dynasty to make ink bars, and that can be used as medicine, so such as the palace forbidden places, more or less will be prepared on some of them, in case of emergencies.

Of course this amount, in general, is unlikely to result in a fire that sweeps through most of the valley.

The head of the forbidden army so was in a difficult situation, "I am incompetent, please punish Your Majesty!"

"Really can not find the slightest trace?" The emperor's tone could not be heard as happy or angry, "Is it possible that the stone resin water flew over?"

Forbidden army leader is very entangled, to say that there is no trace of that is impossible, he mixed to this position is not a dry meal. The problem is, this kind of thing think also know, with the former harem of the big brother can not get out of it: first of all, stone fat water this kind of thing, ordinary people wrong just happen to be born in the origin of the neighborhood, otherwise I am afraid that all my life don't know that there is such a thing;

Secondly, the Spring Half Villa is the residence of the Son of Heaven, and ordinary people don't even dare to approach it, let alone setting it on fire.

The third is, as the emperor said, spring half of the mountain near the garrison with the forbidden army, even after the emperor left, there are still two imperial consort in, so the scouting horse still need to be scattered out of ten or twenty miles in order to policy security.

This situation is actually still a big night by the fire forced to transfer the consort within the night said the forbidden army does not have a few darkies or something, who believes?

He is not trying to fool the emperor, just synthesize the hands of various clues, the most suspicious is the regent!

Then how dare he say this without the Emperor's instructions?

Even Yun Feng Huang a deep in the harem of the consort can see, the emperor and the regent is now cooperating with the will is very strong, in order not to break this covenant, they are now more than anyone else do not want the people underneath to make a mess.

The head of the forbidden army so would rather lead the work of incompetence negligence of duty charges at most to go to the post, the future is not bright than to spoil the emperor and the regent of the big event, this may be the emperor abruptly angry, to set a instigation of the heavenly flesh and blood of the charge of the whole family to beheading it?

Weighing the pros and cons at the moment, he finally kowtowed stiffly and said with a trembling voice, "The humble minister is incompetent!"

The emperor was silent for a while, during which time both the kneeling leader of the forbidden army and the consort behind the screen held their breath.

"Since you know that you are incompetent, go and take your punishment with the Hussar General." Only after the emperor said this, the leader of the forbidden army breathed a long sigh of relief and sincerely kowtowed and thanked him for his kindness.

He was able to serve as an officer in the forbidden army and was responsible for close protection of the Imperial Concubine, so there was some relationship with Zheng Gui as well.

Handing it over to Jung Tools to deal with is arguably the easiest of all the downfalls.

This person sent out, the Empress took Yun Feng Huang out, see the emperor's face is not much expression, does not look too happy look, the Empress can not help but small intention to appease a few sentences, the end of the topic will want to pull to Xiluo body.

But the emperor did not take this word, but rubbed his brow and asked them, the leader of the forbidden army can not be used, the spring half of the mountain villa fire how to deal with the matter of good?

Empress Ji and Yun Feng Huang exchange a look, the Empress said, "The forbidden army in the end is only responsible for guarding the Imperial City security, killing things may be in the line, this thorough investigation of the root causes of the fire ... such things in fact or the Da Lisi and the Ministry of Criminal Justice to the proper, after all, the profession has specialization it. However, the spring half of the villa is the mother's private property, this disaster involves Yao Ning sister and Mao Jieyu two imperial consorts, called the foreign ministers to do it is a little inappropriate."

She gauged the Emperor's expression and tried, "Why don't we let the Imperial City Department try?"

The Emperor gave a "hmm" and said, "That's fine."

This response looks as if nothing to know the appearance of the natural queen and Yun Feng Huang instead feel at a loss the emperor in the end is the heart of the number of intentional it, or really agree to let the Imperial City Division to be responsible for?

In any case, the suggestion was made, and it was not good to take it back at the moment.

And let the Imperial City Department do it, perhaps there is still the possibility of destroying the evidence, it is better than falling into the hands of others.

The Empress was about to speak when she heard the Emperor follow, "To prevent the Imperial City Department from being as slack as the Forbidden Army, let Yan Yin follow them and supervise."

"... your majesty, so you side is not no top people serving?" Yun Feng Huang narrowed his eyes, softly said, "or not another small eunuch sent to watch point?"

The emperor looked at her with a smile and not a smile, "no harm, I serve a lot of people in front of me, Yan Yin left a few days does not matter. On the contrary, Consort, Xile but separated from you only two days, how I see people have lost a circle? It seems that I should explain with the doctor, let them good for Xile diagnosis and treatment is, otherwise if the real people are gone, I am really afraid that you day to find me crying."

"His Majesty knows that concubines miss Xile, then let concubines go to see her?" Yun Feng Huang took advantage of the situation to go forward to hold his arm pampering, said, "is always the concubine's people, but also in order to protect the concubine was separated in the night ... before has not been able to find her is also just, and now since His Majesty brought back, if the concubine is still unheard of, is it not to let a person's heart chills? "

The Emperor mused.

But because of the cloud wind Huang pampering entanglement, Ji Empress in the side also euphemistically help, and ultimately waved his hand to allow, "Let the wild geese lead to you to arrange it, but the person is extremely heavy injuries, I look uncomfortable, before the Consort went in or to let someone cover up a cover is."

Where does Yun Feng Huang care about this?

said yes, yes, and when he went out, he told Yan Yin to see his right-hand man immediately, immediately, and with his feet.

As for any blocking of a word that is certainly not mentioned.

In fact, Yan Yin led her around the corner to a small tent, she was directly in tears to lift the curtain and go in first, "Xile!"

But once inside, I was a bit speechless ...

Before the emperor said Xiluo burned badly, she was bent on fear also did not put much on the heart, this moment to see with their own eyes this cut off the charcoal who?

"This is really Xile?" Burned into this way can live is God's mercy, although this cut off the charcoal suspected still breathing, Yun Feng Huang still a little wind in the mess, turned his head and asked Yan Yin followed in, "Unknown Your Majesty is how to recognize it?"

Yan Yin lowered her head and said, "Back to Your Highness, this is indeed Miss Xile. When the slave girl and His Majesty met her, she was still conscious, and after declaring her identity and saying something about the Queen's heel, she couldn't support herself and fainted."

Said something about the palace?

What did it all say?

Yun Feng Huang peeked at the Yan Yin look, but this temple people treacherous, has been lowbrowed a set of deference, but can not see although it is a eunuch at least is a man, Yun Feng Huang can not be forced to come up to his heels to measure.

She stood in the tent for a while, and finally took some miserable color to mourn the tragic fate of her beloved courtesans, and instructed Yan Yin to ask people to take good care of them, before she left with a step and three turns back.

Back to their own tent, Yun Feng Huang mind is difficult to calm, is thinking about how to probe the news, outside the tent, someone raised his voice to report, said it was ordered by the Queen to convey the news.

Yun Feng Huang casually let people come in, came in a twelve or thirteen years old looks like a small palace maid, demeanor is generous, salute after the articulate said, "endowment Jieyu Maiden, just before the Empress Dowager's eunuchs to come with the Empress Dowager's decree to let his majesty, Empress Dowager, and Mrs. Yao Ning, as well as Jieyu Maiden, as soon as possible to return to the palace to rest and recuperate to ensure the safety of the! "

"Got it." Yun Feng Huang asked Nian Xuan to take a purse to reward her, "This palace will send someone to pack things."

In fact, at this moment, everyone has nothing to pack, because the large number of boxes and cages brought over before are almost all burned out in the spring half of the mountain ...

But after all, the emperor just came back, it is impossible to say that immediately start back to the palace, how to rest on the night.

Yun Feng Huang this side promised, not long after, the Empress side and then someone over to inform, said the Emperor decided to use the lunch tomorrow and then set off to remind Yun Feng Huang this side, if you need to take medicine and so on, in advance will be boiled to bring the medicinal juice, lest the road is inconvenient, the wrong time to take the medication.

These do not need to cloud wind Huang worry, Nian Xuan immediately commanded people to pick up, and personally went out to watch people boil medicine.

Just coming back into the tent with the pot of medicine, her eyes were a little puzzled.

Yun Feng Huang noticed and beckoned her to follow him, asking warmly, "What's wrong?"

"The maidservant just saw Mr. Chi when she went to look at the medicine." Nian Xuan almost whispered against her ear.

Yun Feng Huang heart sank, Nian Xuan and is not unaware of Chi Jiu Lu here, if you just see people, what is there to say?

She pressed on without moving and asked, "And then what?"

Just then I heard Nian Xuan say, "He seems to be leaving."

Gone?

Yun Feng Huang was slightly stunned and said, "What gone?"

"It is ... just with the boy with the luggage, it looks like we are leaving here." Nian Xuan was puzzled, "But didn't His Majesty say that we're not leaving until tomorrow? And he is following the Prince Regent's son, but the Prince Regent hasn't even left?"

"..." Yun Feng Huang was silent, after a while before saying, "I'm a little uncomfortable, you go to see the Queen's side, if His Majesty is not there, report to the Queen; if His Majesty is there, then go and see later. Remember, it must be when His Majesty is not there, then go in and report!"
