Chapter 414 Risk
A few days later, Nanny Hui, who was next to the Queen Mother, asked to see the emperor and said that the Queen Mother dreamed of the late emperor. The late emperor told the Queen Mother that due to the Queen Mother's devotion to Buddha, the late emperor had ascended to immortality and asked the Queen Mother to guide him.
The younger generation, who are blessed with good luck and good luck with Buddhism, went to the royal temple on Tangling Island to fast for seven days to pray for the late emperor and pray for the great Zhou Dynasty and the current emperor.
Aunt Hui euphemistically expressed two ideas. First, the Empress Dowager herself proposed to recite sutras and pray for the late emperor in the Buddhist hall. Now that the great work has been accomplished, she will comply with the late emperor's wishes and live a normal life out of the Imperial Garden.
Second, as for the candidates to go to Dongling Island, the Empress Dowager has issued an order to ask Qin Tianjian to choose among the descendants of the royal family and the children of aristocratic families. The Empress Dowager has only designated five people: Xia Shuyao, Princess of Fuxing, and Yu Zhengran, the second in the list.
As well as Prince Yong’s children Qi Yueling, Qi Haoxiang and Qi Yuexin, Princess Yuegui.
When it comes to good fortune, Princess Fuxing, who was granted the imperial title by Emperor Jinkou, is naturally the first to bear the brunt. Among the two people who received the lotus bracelet from Master Jingxuan many years ago, besides Princess Fuxing, the other one is Yu Zhengran. Originally, Xia Shujie, the double champion, was also the most lucky.
A good candidate, but Xia Shujie is the first-class bodyguard beside the emperor, and the emperor's safety comes first, so the Queen Mother chose Yu Zhengran, who was second only to Xia Shujie.
As for Qi Yueling, Qi Haoxiang and Qi Yuexin, they are the children of Prince Yong. Prince Yong has made great contributions to the great Zhou Dynasty, so the Empress Dowager naturally loves them more.
The emperor's right thumb was stroking the fabric of the clothes in his sleeve, and his face was still full of respect: "I was deeply moved by the emperor's grandmother's feelings for the emperor's grandfather and Da Zhou. At that time, the emperor's grandmother insisted on eating fast and chanting Buddha in the Buddhist hall.
I really can't bear it, but I dare not disobey my grandmother's wishes. Now that the emperor's grandmother has decided to walk out of the Buddhist hall, I am naturally very happy. I can just go to Dongling Island to pray according to the emperor's grandmother's wishes."
After Aunt Hui withdrew, the Emperor's face darkened instantly. With a flick of his right hand, the things on the right side of the dragon case fell to the ground with a clatter.
Dafuzi lowered his head and knelt down: "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body!" Although the Empress Dowager's natal family has been suppressed for many years, the huge secret power of the Xiao family has never been discovered and disappeared without a trace. It is said that that
dark force
Several of their leaders had received training from the Japanese. Not only did they have extremely strong expansion and concealment abilities, but they were also able to use earth escape, water escape, and even fire escape. The emperor had been tolerating the Empress Dowager and the King of Northern Qi over the years, but he was worried about that force.
Dark power.
The emperor sighed: "Let someone come in and clean up. When Shujie comes back, ask him to come and see me."
That night, Shujie and Shuyao entered Jin Xida's study again.
Shujie was shocked when she heard about Shujie's trip to Dongling Island and the emperor's plan to make Shuyao an "undercover agent."
Naturally, we cannot rely on the secret of rebirth to know in advance what will happen.
Jin Xida looked worried: "The Empress Dowager is extremely cunning. She definitely had a conspiracy and was very successful in leaving the Imperial Garden this time. No, Jie'er, you should listen to the emperor and follow the emperor to Dongling Island. Yao'er
Although her 'Flying Swallow Steps on Lotus' and Flying Needle skills are amazing, she is still just a little girl after all, and she will never be able to play with the Empress Dowager."
Shu Jie sighed: "The Emperor thought that the Queen Mother was obviously on guard against me, so he took me out of the prayer team on the grounds of the Emperor's safety. If the Emperor insisted on letting me accompany him, I'm afraid the Queen Mother would also change his strategy.
Put away his tail. The emperor is not worried about Yaoer either.
, indeed he wanted me to accompany him. But the emperor repeatedly asked me how capable Yao'er was in protecting herself in a crisis. I could see that in his heart, the emperor still hoped that Yao'er could carry out the mission alone and find out the background of the Empress Dowager as soon as possible.
And the traces of the Xiao family’s dark power.”
Jin Xida also sighed: "The dark power of the Xiao family has disappeared. The Empress Dowager and the King of Northern Qi are like a poison that can be triggered at any time." However, he and Shujie can take risks for Da Zhou. Yao
But it is not allowed to have children. Yao'er is still just a little girl raised in the inner courtyard of the boudoir.
Shujie couldn't rest assured either. But he had more confidence in Shuyao than others. Shuyao's mahogany box was her best and fastest protection in times of crisis. Shuyao's five senses were superhumanly sensitive, and Shuyao's senses were extremely sensitive.
Poisoning is not an easy task. Moreover, countless items can be stored in the mahogany box. The various poisons, porcelain balls, and medicines inside are all Shuyao's guarantee.
If the Empress Dowager really chooses Shu Yao and the two princes to attack, even if they escape this time, there will be a next time, and the next time, it will be impossible to guard against it. After all, the identity of the Empress Dowager is that she summoned Shu Yao.
It's hard for the emperor to say anything about things like entering the palace to attend to illness.
Therefore, Shujie still hopes to seize the opportunity as soon as possible to expose the background of the Empress Dowager, or make the Empress Dowager die when she sees that Shu Yao cannot control her. Shujie believes that the Empress Dowager can swallow her anger and hide in the Buddhist hall for so many years.
, is also extremely cautious.
Brother and sister are connected, and Shuyao is a person who has lived two lives. She also thought of what Shujie thought of. She knew that she had her adoptive father and eldest brother who loved her like the apple of his eye, and that she was the quasi-concubine of Prince Yong's palace.
As well as the title of "Princess Fuxing" of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is strange that the Empress Dowager did not think of using her and plotting against her.
Because of the mahogany box, Shuyao is still very confident in self-protection. Everyone knows that she is good at Qinggong. If anything happens, or she is drugged, she can disappear in an instant as long as she has a trace of consciousness.
Not to mention the various antidotes in the treasure box, the aura in the treasure box alone can help her detoxify and inhibit the properties of the medicine.
More importantly, a few days ago, Shuyao found that her control over the mahogany box had improved to a new level. In the mahogany box, not only could she see everything outside clearly, but she could also send needles out of the mahogany box without being noticed.
She knows that even if the other party can determine her direction, he can't do anything to her.
Shuyao told Shujie excitedly that day, and it was precisely because of this that Shujie became more willing to "take risks" on her own. Although Shuyao was only a boudoir girl, she also knew that the greater the risk, the greater the reward.
big.
Seeing that both Shujie and Shuyao were tempted, Jin Xida was anxious. He would never let Shuyao take such a risk. When Shuyao was about to say something, Jin Xida waved his hand: "You don't need to say anything, I am your
As your adoptive father, you will never be allowed to surrender. I will go to tell the emperor tomorrow that Jie'er and I will find a way to help the emperor find out the tail of the empress dowager, but we must not let you live as a girl.
To take such a big risk." The Empress Dowager picked Shuyao partly because of Prince Yong's palace, and partly because of him and Shujie. If he could not protect Shuyao well, as a father, how could he be embarrassed? What would happen to him in the future?
