Phoenix Knot: Butterfly Dance

Chapter 12

The case of Emperor Yue, nine years ago——

On that day nine years ago, Lien Chan came to the palace and said to me: Die Che, follow me into the palace.

In the past three months, Bai Ling has never got down, in order to keep her filial piety.

Later, I became the only concubine of Emperor Xi Yuan.

I asked Cong Yan, why should I enter the palace?

Cong Yan said: Die Che came here for the common people in the world.

I still don't understand what a little girl has to do with the common people in this world.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?" When I came back to my senses, I realized that Gongyan was calling me.

"Oh what's wrong"

"Concubine Yu and the emperor are here"

"Oh, why is the emperor free to come?" He looked at the loving couple with a smile.

"The concubine pays her respects to the queen mother"

"My son pays respects to the Queen Mother. Naturally, my son has something very important to see the Queen Mother."

"It's like this." Zhilan touched her belly: "The concubine wants the queen mother to name the emperor's son."

"Name it? It's early."

"It's like this. I know that the Empress Dowager will go to the Gaomiao to worship her ancestors in a few days and she won't be able to come back within a year. So I want to ask the Empress Dowager to name her now."

Interestingly, the emperor didn't rise up by himself.

"So... let's call it Qingge, it's suitable for both men and women"

"Qingge... Xie Queen Mother" Zhilan knelt down to thank her after she finished speaking.

"Excuse me quickly, Concubine Yu Gui should pay more attention to her body"

"Thank you queen"

"Concubine Yu Gui, go down first, the Ai family has something to tell the emperor."

"Yes"

"Emperor sit down"

"I don't know what's the matter with the Queen Mother?"

I picked up the cold tea on the table, pretended to be hot and blew a few times: "Does the emperor know what happened nine years ago?"

"Nine years ago?"

"That's right, the year Emperor Xiyue passed away." He took a sip of tea.

He didn't answer, so I went on to say: "The death of Emperor Xiyue is a bit strange. Empress Qiu, as far as I know, seems to have been wronged. The emperor was the son of Concubine Shan at that time. What do you think about this matter?"

Noticed his expression and eyes, a little unsteady.

"This case was handled by Duke Huang alone. There must be no mistakes. Besides, Queen Qiu also pleaded guilty. Why did the Queen Mother suddenly have such an idea?"

"Oh, I'm just a little curious. Since the emperor has said this, it means he's overwhelmed. It's okay. The emperor should go back and rest first."

"The son and minister resigned"

After seeing him off, Gu Yan stepped forward: "Your Majesty..."

"The Emperor's Response"

"Ah?" Cong Yan looked suddenly enlightened: "The queen mother is testing the emperor?"

"However, the emperor's reaction is indeed abnormal"

"Is there? I don't think it's nothing"

"Eyes. Lian Hao has always been a shrewd and prudent person, but at that moment just now, there was a trace of...fear and panic in his eyes."

"what?"

"Although it's only for a moment, the Ai family will not be wrong, could it be... Xue Wufeng..."

"Queen...will you investigate this case?"

"What's the matter, Gongyan, you seem to be very concerned." Looking at her tangled expression, I suddenly laughed: "Yes, Aijia has nothing to do anyway."

Later, let Jing Tong speak to Xue Wufeng.
