Chapter 75 The Praying Mantis Catch the Cicada, The Oriole Follows (2)

However, no one noticed that after the carriage of Mu Liushuang and others left the city gate, above the city gate, there was a pair of eyes staring at the carriage. Those eyes were full of meaningful colors .

****
As soon as the seven-day period expired, before Qi Liuye went to report to the queen, the queen naturally appeared in front of Qi Liuye and questioned Qi Liuye. Liu Ye, with a sneer on his lips, said, "Ye'er, the seven-day deadline is up, what did you find out?"

The empress specially summoned the civil and military officials of the court to the emperor's bedroom. When they heard the empress's question, their faces flashed surprise, and they all turned their heads to discuss in whispers with the people around them...

Qi Liuye was indifferent to the Queen's question, he kept squatting beside Emperor Qi Liu's bed, his deep eyes stared at Emperor Qi Liu, until Emperor Qi Liu moved his eyes slightly, he Only then slowly stood up, facing the queen and said: "Queen mother, isn't the most important thing right now is to treat the father's illness first?"

Qi Liuye's change of subject made the sneer on the corner of the Queen's lips more intense. She passed by Qi Liuye's side and came to Emperor Qi Liuye's bedside. She looked down at Qi Liuye with her eyes closed. Emperor Liu, his eyes rippling slightly: "You are right, the most important thing right now is to treat your father's illness, but the murderer who murdered your father, I will never let go However, the reason why my palace released Concubine Huang, Concubine Xue, and Concubine Xian that day was because you swore in front of this palace that you would find out the truth within seven days. Now, the seven-day appointment has arrived, Ye'er Do you want to turn your face and deny it?"

Facing the queen's aggression, Qi Liuye calmed down...

Qi Liuye has always been calm when encountering troubles, and he will not change the topic and beat around the bush. However, no matter how much Qi Liuye investigates this incident, he can't find any results. The complexity of the matter makes Qi Liuye fall into a predicament... …

He wanted to find Gu Qingge and ask if she knew anything about this matter, but at this time, not only did Gu Qingge not appear in front of Qi Liuye, but he also sent a post with Qi Liuye to invite Lu Qingge to come to the Palace of Three Princes. They turned a blind eye and never appeared, which made Qi Liuye feel a little suspicious.

Qi Liuye laughed twice, he turned to face the queen, and responded unwillingly: "The queen mother's words, could it be that she is accusing Sang and scolding Huai's ministers, who don't care about the father's illness, let alone worry about it? To find the culprit behind the scenes?"

Qi Liuye's aura was no worse than that of the empress. For a moment, the entire dormitory fell into a stalemate...

The queen flicked her sleeves, and her face was gloomy and ugly: "Presumptuous, how can you misinterpret what I say at will? The disease that even the imperial physician could not diagnose at the beginning, Huang Guifei diagnosed and cured it, and vowed to say it in front of the palace. That said, the emperor was murdered by someone with a heart, and those who can murder the emperor are always by his side. This Palace ordered concubine Huang, Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xue to come out to disrupt the situation. Now... not only can you find out the truth , changing the subject, even if the murderer is in the harem, all the evidence of murdering the emperor has been destroyed, this palace has no choice but to suspect, Third Prince...you have a second heart towards the emperor."

As soon as the queen said this, the courtiers standing in the bedroom exploded...

The first person to stand up to speak for Qi Liuye was none other than the current prime minister, Duanmu Yunpeng: "Empress, this statement is wrong. I think that the reason why the third prince can't find out the murderer behind the scenes is the truth. Someone is behind the scenes, the enemy is in the dark, we are in the light, and the seven-day deadline is really too tight."

"Empress, I believe that the prime minister is justified, and the third prince should be given more time. I believe that the third prince will find out the truth soon..." Murong Hongyuan said at the end of Duanmu Yunpeng's words. Then he spoke.

The other courtiers, seeing the enthusiasm of Murong Hongyuan and Duanmu Yunpeng, all came out to agree.

Qi Liuye listened to the words of the courtiers in silence, as if he was an outsider...

Such a picture was expected by the queen. Over the years, the emperor has attached great importance to Qi Liuye, and Duanmu Yunpeng, Murong Hongyuan and other court cities have supported Qi Liuye, so that Qi Liuye's reputation in the court city has become stronger and stronger. It's getting bigger and bigger, and what Qi Liuye lacks is nothing more than an imperial decree from the emperor. When the imperial decree is issued, Qi Liuye will be confirmed as the crown prince. At that time, Qi Liuye's strength will be unstoppable...

"You mean that the emperor's safety can be ignored? You know, no one can diagnose the emperor's lethargy unless the real culprit behind this scene is found out!" The queen flicked her sleeves, full of majesty Doubtful voices sounded slowly.

"This..." The faces of the courtiers showed embarrassment.

The emperor's safety is of course important, but if Qi Liuye is almost the truth, are they going to overthrow Qi Liuye?
Look at the queen again, her majesty is inviolable at the same time, for a moment, the atmosphere in the bedroom became solemn...

"Ye...Ye'er." The emperor's faint and small voice came to mind, the empress was taken aback, her eyes widened, and she looked at the emperor in disbelief. She rushed forward, grabbed the emperor's hand, and said emotionally: " Your Majesty, you, are you awake?"

Hearing the queen's voice, Qi Liuye immediately stepped forward, and the courtiers rushed up one after another.

The emperor slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was the empress' eyes full of worry, and Qi Liuye's frowning, Qi Liuye wanted to squat down, and the position beside the emperor Qi Liuye, But they were all taken over by the queen.

"Zhen, what's the matter with Zhan?" Emperor Qiliu looked around and asked with thin lips.

Hearing this, the queen squeezed two tears from the corners of her eyes and said: "Your majesty, you have been lethargic for almost a month. The imperial doctor can't diagnose and cure the cause of the disease from your body. You are afraid that you have been poisoned by a villain. It's just that Little man, Ye'er searched for seven days, but failed to find out."

While explaining, the queen pushed Qi Liuye into the turmoil...

Qi Liuye's expression turned cold, and he listened quietly to the queen's words without any rebuttal.

The emperor is sick, but he is not stupid. How could he fail to see the queen's intentions? He raised his eyes to look at Qi Liuye, his lips were pale, and his mouth was dry and he said: "Ye'er, you... you Come here to me."

Qi Liuye nodded, and was about to walk towards Emperor Qi Liu, but when the empress couldn't see it, a coldness flashed in her eyes.
