"Everything is well, princess." Eunuch Han looked at Dong Kuang.
Dong Shangshu thought about it and thought of the marriage request from a neighboring country. As the legitimate princess, if Long Nanyao didn't want to go, there was one way to get back together with his son Dong Kuang.
It turns out that this is the reason why the emperor sent people to their home.
Immediately the waist became much straighter.
When I spoke to Eunuch Han, I was a little more forceful: "I dare to ask Eunuch Han, why did the emperor send my father-in-law here?"
Eunuch Han did not answer him directly. Gu Zi asked Dong Kuang: "What happened to Mr. Dong's hands and feet?"
The Dong family father and son looked at each other and both thought of one thing.
Dong Kuang got up and walked around: "Although walking is a bit weird, at least I can walk. I believe that if you rest more, you will get better."
Eunuch Han asked him to sit down with a smile, and gave the note in his hand to Dong Shangshu.
"This is written by the emperor himself. Mr. Dong accepts it and accepts it."
Dong Shangshu unfolded the note and read it, his face suddenly turned green and pale: "What, why did the emperor demote me?"
"It's not a derogation, Mr. Dong. The emperor is ordering you to retire and return to your hometown. You don't have to be an official anymore."
"But I'm not old yet."
"The emperor said that you are old when you are old." Eunuch Han smiled and looked at Dong Kuang again, "With your hands and feet like this, there will be no hindrance in returning to your hometown to farm."
At this moment, Mrs. Dong came over with the help of her maid: "I heard that Eunuch Han was here, and asked about my A Kuang again, but does the fifth princess miss him?"
Eunuch Han's smile instantly turned into a sneer: "Mrs. Dong really knows how to think, and how dare she think about it. Your son's arms and legs have been broken once, and he wants to have them all broken again?"
After that, he threw up his sleeves and left.
Only the Dong family members were left looking at each other.
Dong Shangshu lost his mind and murmured: "It's over, it's all over."
"What's over?" Mrs. Dong took the note from her husband, looked at it, and immediately rolled her eyes.
The maid simply held her in time to prevent her from falling.
"The superiors want us to leave the capital before the Lantern Festival. Master, please go and ask Prime Minister Cai. Maybe there is room for change."
"Xiang Cai? He hid his legitimate daughter in order to avoid the purge. Do you think he will help me at this critical moment?" Dong Shangshu sneered.
Immediately, he yelled at his wife: "You said you!" The index finger pointed at his son, "And you, you mother and son really succeed more than fail!"
"If you had been kinder to Fu Nanyao back then, it would be time for the Dong family to flourish."
"But now, it's useless to regret." Mrs. Dong cried, "Who knew she would become the princess."
When Mrs. Dong saw her husband looking at her with an angry face, she directed her anger at her son: "Akuang, it's not my mother who said you, Cai Mushi has a figure like a washboard, why do you like her? You are treated like that by her The woman leads the way, and now she can’t even protect herself. Our Dong family has really been harmed by her.”
Think of that Fu Nanyao, no, now it is Long Nanyao. Although he is not tall, his figure is really good.
Looking at her figure, she must be ready to give birth to a son.
If Akuang and her had not reconciled, she might be able to repay her grandson now.
It's better now, the glory, wealth, fame and reputation are all gone.
Dong Kuang said: "There must be a way. There is still a lot of time before the Lantern Festival. Let's think of a way. Maybe she is interested in me. They say that a husband and wife will be gracious for a hundred days. I can't live with her. A young couple.”
Although the marriage was not consummated, the couple remained husband and wife.
——
Soon it was lunch time.
The royal palace, the queen's palace.
Qiao Wanyou left her children to eat.
When it was time to eat, Long Yi came uninvited.
Fu Nanyao bowed as usual when she saw him, her eyes slightly red. Long Yi secretly wondered if it was what he said in the imperial garden that hurt her?
But he didn't ask about the dignity of the emperor of a country.
Qiao Wanyou planned to discuss the marriage with Long Yi at night, so she didn't mention it. The family was quite quiet as they ate.
Halfway through the meal, Eunuch Mo came in a hurry.
"The Empress, the Third Highness, the Third Prince and the Concubine, the person who poisoned us has been found!"
He shouted while running, and when he arrived, he saw that the emperor was also there.
He hurriedly saluted: "Meet the Emperor!"
Long Yi said "hmm", frowned and asked: "Poison, what poison, and who?"
Eunuch Mo secretly thought that he was too hasty. Now when the emperor asked him, he had to tell the truth: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has been in these few days..."
After giving an overview of the Empress Dowager's situation, he added: "The person who poisoned the Empress Dowager was the fire-maker in the imperial kitchen who made firewood for the Empress Dowager's meals."
"How can it be that simple? Have you ever been tortured?" Fu Ciyi said quietly.
"Just as I was about to be tortured, I wanted to let the Empress, the Third Highness, and the Third Princess serve as witnesses."
Eunuch Mo said and bowed down.
"Your Majesty, what do you think we should do about this matter?" Qiao Wanyou asked the question to Long Yi.
She wanted to "see" how Long Yi would react to the poisoner and how he would deal with it.
"The Empress Dowager was poisoned. This is a big deal." Long Yi took the lead and stood up, "Let's go and have a look."
If I don't go to court these days, I will be idle.
Furthermore, someone in his palace dared to poison him. Are they tired of living?
The group of people marched toward the Empress Dowager's Palace in a mighty manner.
On the way, Fu Ciyi took Yan Funing's hand.
Yan Funing wanted to retract, but he held her tightly.
The man's palms were dry and hot, almost making her want to run away.
He clearly didn't say anything at this moment, he just told her with his palms that he was looking forward to arriving early tonight.
She also didn't expect that when she entered the palace today, there would be so many things going on in the palace.
Thinking that my mother-in-law was also poisoned, the person who poisoned the Queen Mother must be tortured now. Maybe some clues can be found about what happened back then.
This is the best thing.
Someone saw the emperor walking in the lead and immediately went to the empress dowager.
"The Queen Mother, Your Highnesses, the Emperor and the Queen, are following Eunuch Mo at the moment, probably to the Queen Mother."
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager frowned: "Is the matter done cleanly?"
"It's very clean, the Queen Mother can rest assured!"
"Yes." The Empress Dowager nodded, "Having said that, we can't take it lightly. You have to send someone to look after the family outside the mother-in-law's womb."
"It has been taken care of for a long time. Besides, she only knows that the old slave wants her to do it, and she doesn't know about you, the Queen Mother. Of course, if she dares to reveal even a word, her whole family will..."
As he spoke, the man made a gesture of wiping his neck.
The Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction: "You should do things without leakage. You did a good job and it was right." Thinking of something, she immediately asked, "Is Qiao's blindness and amnesia any better?"
"No, it's not okay. She doesn't remember anything about the previous things, and she still can't see." The man lowered his voice and said, "Empress Dowager, what do you want?"
The Empress Dowager angrily rebuked: "Idiot, she is already a queen now, and the emperor is deeply in love with her. If the old love rekindles, what can the Ai family do?"
In addition, Long Wenyu and Yan Funing were as smart as if they were not human beings, so she had to be careful.
No matter, as long as Qiao Wanyou can't remember the past, she can stay. (End of chapter)
