Chapter 367 Where did you get the news from?
Chapter 367 Where did your news come from?
Zhao Su heard everything Huo Xiu and the emperor said in the house. Ten years ago, the emperor fell down a stone cave in the yard. Huo Xiu watched from beginning to end, which means that Huo Xiu also saw the old woman who saved the emperor.
Zhao Su knew that this was a disaster in the emperor's heart, but she didn't expect that there was an unexpected clue, so of course she couldn't let it go. However, she focused all her attention on the cause of the eldest princess' death, but she didn't expect that the emperor was so quick to think about it.
Light and shadow came from the other side of the gate. After standing for a while, Han Jun and Huo Xiu had already turned back. They immediately went into the palace to meet Empress Dowager Lu. The emperor still only asked Zhao Su to follow him, and Zhao Yu and others stayed outside the palace.
The group watched the emperor enter the palace. It was not until the palace gate was closed that Zhao Yu bowed to the Marquis of Jingnan: "Uncle Yu has worked hard tonight."
"What's the matter?" Marquis Jingnan waved his hand, "I just happened to come to invite Qinglian, and it happened to happen. I hope everyone is fine." After saying that, he said again, "How could Qinglian be with the emperor? Could it be that the emperor has a message tonight?"
"I don't know much about this. I met them by chance." Zhao Yu responded vaguely, glanced at the hem of the clothes of Jingnan Hou, and smiled and said, "Uncle Yu has any errands at night?"
Under the golden embroidered cloud brocade burqa, a small square of black trousers was exposed. Although it was lightly illuminated by the light, it could be seen that the cut was well-fitted and very neat.
"Oh," said the marquis of Jingnan, who was slightly open, was straightened. "I planned to go back and go out of the city to take a walk in the camp to see how the defenses of the camps in the capital were around the festival. It was getting late. I think the emperor didn't need us, so it would be better for you and I to go home and wait for news."
Zhao Yu bowed: "Uncle Yu said, that nephew will give him here."
Marquis Jingnan nodded, turned his head and walked towards the street.
Su Tang stepped forward and pulled Zhao Yu's mount: "Criminal, let's go back home too?"
"No." Zhao Yu took his eyes back from the street, "We'll go to the Huo family."
"Go to the Huo family?"
"Yes. Let's go and see if Han Jun needs help."
...
The palace had already passed the bedtime, but the Cining Palace was still bright at this time.
The emperor and his party arrived at Cining Palace and signaled Huo Xiu and Zhao Suxian to stand outside the door, cross the door and go in, calling out to Empress Dowager Lu, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch: "My mother."
"Where is Sister Yu?" Empress Dowager Lu stood up almost at the same time.
"The person is still looking for the mother, but something else happened."
The emperor sat down on the edge of the couch.
Empress Dowager Lu frowned: "What happened?"
"About the Emperor."
The curtains in the hall were hanging down, blocking some of the light and shadows, and as if blocking the sound. This made the corridor look particularly quiet. Zhao Su turned his head to look at Huo Xiu. The conspiracy had just failed and was in a blink of an eye and encountered the only man who had an accident with his relatives. At this moment, he stood upright in front of him like a black tower, silent and forbearing.
Zhao Su wanted to say something to him, after all, there were many things to ask, but they were also disturbing. He didn't know which one to ask first, and even if he asked, he didn't know if he would answer, so he was silent.
After a while, the drooping curtain raised a slight wave. Empress Dowager Lu took the lead in walking out of it, and his head was shaking with a clatter.
"Brother Yun, come in."
Huo Xiu's nickname was Brother Yun. When he heard Empress Dowager Lu's words, Huo Xiu opened his mouth reflexively, but in the end he said nothing, stepped in and gave a bow.
"The Emperor said, for so many years, you think that I killed your mother?"
Empress Dowager Lu's voice was steady and powerful, but when she heard it carefully, there was still a trace of tremolo behind her.
Huo Xiu looked at the emperor, but did not avoid it, saying, "In the past ten years, all the evidence and clues that I have mastered are pointing to the palace. Because my mother went to war with the empress dowager's strong persuasion, I can only think that she died of a bad life, and she has a great relationship with the empress dowager."
"You fool!" Empress Dowager Lu blurted out, "Who told you that I persuaded her to go to the expedition to let her die? Have you ever thought about it? If I was afraid of meritorious officials, then your mother is a royal relative and a female, and she controls the power of the court and harms the court's principles, it is not her turn! No matter how great she makes, she is just a woman. Countless people will observe ethics and not allow her to enter the court as an official or participate in politics. As a princess, she will never have the status and strength of a royal prince!
"In other words, if she had such a hidden danger, it means that the women in the world had already had a very high status at that time, and the efforts of women could have been recognized by the world! And since they had such a status, what kind of Huayuehui should I have to establish? Even if I seek fame and reputation, I have to confront so many aristocratic diehards for this?!"
Empress Dowager Lu's eyes were filled with incredible things.
Huo Xiu looked up: "Then why did you persuade my mother to go to war? If it was for women in the world and to set her as a benchmark, why didn't you order to thoroughly investigate the cause of her death after she died? After so many generals were sent together, you know that the battle was very sure. Otherwise, the statement that you asked her to earn money would not be valid? So when my mother died like that, didn't you think there was anything different?"
Empress Dowager Lu slowly straightened her waist and looked at him deeply: "You know I'm going to persuade your mother, I know how many people I sent, but I don't know if I have sent someone to check afterwards?"
Huo Xiu's face was stretched into an iron plate.
Empress Dowager Lu turned her head and said, "Luo Yun went and took out the file of the person I sent to check the princess's body."
Luo Yun's head behind him retreated from the curtain.
Soon, I got a not-so-thin file.
Empress Dowager Lu took it and sat down to continue looking at Huo Xiu: "Look, even if the content is fake, the ink stains on the paper will never be faked. You have read books, and I think I can tell whether this book has been a few years or is it because I was looking for someone to fake it."
Not only has this book turned yellow, it is not as heavy as the new book. As the paper oxidized, it has been at least half lighter.
Although she is a time travel heroine and can open many plug-ins, it is actually impossible for her to be subverted in all aspects. Based on these things, Zhao Su believes that she has no energy to study.
Sure enough, Huo Xiu took it in his hand and turned it over a few pages, and hesitation appeared in his entangled eyes.
"If you don't think this is fake, then look at what is written inside to match the facts you know?" Empress Dowager Lu signaled again.
Huo Xiu's facial muscles trembled slightly, and he opened and looked at the contents inside.
The more he looked, the ugly his face became.
He flipped through it three times, and it was slower than the other time. At the end, he closed the book and raised his head: "Why don't I know about this?"
"Where did you get the news?"
"It's the person around my mother!"
