Chapter 79
"I don't know that there is nothing unusual around me during this period, everything is as usual."
Empress Dowager Qi replied calmly, her tone was calm and she could not hear any falsehood.
Why did Empress Dowager Qi direct and act this drama yourself, but he denied it?!
I can't live for enough months and can't think of it for a while, so I have to take medicine to commit suicide?
Or, to live to this age, have nothing to ask for, and want to try something fresh and exciting?
Ye Ping frowned, feeling that everything was really foggy and could not see the truth.
If you think about Empress Dowager Qi's memory carefully, you can't find any reason why Empress Dowager Qi wants to poison herself.
"Ye Ping, I will leave this matter to you for inspection. If you find out the real murderer, your head will be saved. If you can't find out what's wrong, don't blame me for chopping your head!"
Emperor Xuan He was not surprised by this result. After nodding, his eyes fell on Ye Ping and said word by word.
"I must find out the truth."
Ye Ping did not hesitate to think and clasped his fists.
The current primary task is to survive and let the families of those who gathered at the palace gate who were on duty to their deaths go back, so as not to be in danger again.
As for how to investigate the case where the Queen Mother poisoned herself, she can slowly do so.
"I will give you seven days. After seven days, the truth will be revealed. It's okay; if you can't find anything, just take it yourself."
Emperor Xuanhe looked at Ye Ping indifferently and said.
Shen Mo frowned and asked Emperor Xuanhe to give up the time.
The secrets of the palace are the most complicated and complicated. It is difficult to find out the truth in seven days, even if Ye Ping does have the ability to handle cases!
"Okay, okay, the emperor should not be so angry. Ye Ping saved my life. If you exploit him like this, wouldn't others laugh at us as unkind... Let Ye Ping have fifteen days to find out the truth and live. If you can't find out the truth, then the Ai family will come to the rescue." But before she could speak, Empress Dowager Qi waved her hand first, said lightly, and then waved her hand as if she was a little tired, "The emperor is tired, and all the imperial physicians are tired, go back and rest."
"Then I will sue my son first. If the mother and queen have any discomfort, we should inform the child early."
Although Emperor Xuanhe was unwilling to accept it, he was not willing to refute Empress Dowager Qi's face at this moment. After showing his respect, he took Chen Hong away.
As soon as the imperial physician was responding to the imperial physician, Mo Tianwen and Shen Mo hurriedly bowed to Empress Dowager Qi, and then asked to take Ye Ping away.
"Ye Ping, stay..."
But at this moment, Empress Dowager Qi behind the curtain said lightly.
"Serve the Queen Mother..." Mo Tianwen heard the sound, nodded quickly and said yes, then lowered his voice to Ye Ping and reminded him: "Life is important. If you survive, you will come to the Geju Academy to find me. This location will be left for you."
"Thank you, Mr. Mo."
Ye Ping saluted Mo Tianwen respectfully, feeling full of emotion.
Mo Tianwen shook his head with a smile, patted Ye Ping on the shoulder, and then asked for a walk out.
Shen Mo did not say anything, nodded slightly to Ye Ping, and left with Mo Tianwen.
"Do you know why the Ai family kept you?"
After everyone left, Empress Dowager Qi, behind the curtain, asked Ye Ping with a smile.
"Does the Queen Mother want to ask me about my father?"
Ye Ping blinked, pretending to be innocent and asked with a smile.
"Yes, not..." Empress Dowager Qi chuckled, and then said to the palace maid beside her: "Help Ai's family get up."
Several little palace maids hurriedly supported Empress Dowager Qi, got up from the jade couch, walked out of the curtain, and appeared in front of Ye Ping.
Queen Mother Qi's hair is black and her figure is still graceful. Although there are traces of time and frost between her eyebrows and eyes, and her weakness after being poisoned, she still has a kind of charm, not like an old woman over 90 years old.
"Have Ye Taicheng mentioned the Ai family to you?"
After sitting down, Empress Dowager Qi looked at Ye Ping, chuckled and said.
"I have never said that, but when my father was there, he often sat alone, facing the direction of the palace, sighed softly, saying that the stars and winds last night..."
Ye Ping hesitated for a moment and decided to report it according to the truth, but then carry out some artistic processing.
"Last night, the stars last night wind..."
Queen Mother Qi murmured, after a long time, she lowered her head and her eyes turned slightly red.
This is a true love!
Ye Ping was stunned. Unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Qi was so kind. After years of experience, her eyes turned red when she mentioned that person.
"It makes you laugh. When the Ai family was young, they did have some feelings for Ye Taicheng. There was little true love in the palace, especially when people were old, they liked to recall some ridiculous things when they were young. Only then did they realize that those ridiculous things are the best days..."
After a long time, Empress Dowager Qi looked at Ye Ping and chuckled and sighed.
"The Queen Mother's golden words."
Ye Ping smiled and shook his head, saying.
"No need to be so restrained. Since you are Tai Cheng's son, in the eyes of the Ai family, you are also the child of your nephews..."
Empress Dowager Qi smiled, raised her hand, and said leisurely, indicating that Ye Ping should not be nervous.
"Then the minister dared to call the Queen Mother " "Empress Dowager."
Ye Ping's eyes rolled and said.
Of course, you have to hold one thigh. Queen Mother Qi’s thick leg is very good, at least for her eyes.
"Good boy."
Empress Dowager Qi smiled and nodded repeatedly.
Ye Ping did not call him aunt, but aunt, so he was closer, and he was a little more implicit in his relationship with the empress dowager and Ye Taicheng, so he was indeed very considerate.
"In this regard, you are very similar to Taicheng. He is also a sweet-mouthed person." After a gentle smile, Empress Dowager Qi nodded to the little palace maid next to him, saying, "The light in the room is dazzling. Go and take two mermaid pearls and give them to my nephew to take them back later. You can be the medical fee for him to help me with the treatment."
"yes."
The little palace maid was very quick to move. She took out the golden hook, took off two mermaid beads, put them in the exquisite red sandalwood box, put them in front of Ye Ping, and when she turned around, she still smiled sweetly at Ye Ping.
Not even a fool can tell that this celebrity who has become the queen mother now has a popular person in front of her. She is always a little bit fond of her.
"The emperor asked you to investigate my poisoning case. How do you plan to investigate? What are your mistakes?"
Immediately, Empress Dowager Qi asked Ye Ping inadvertently.
What should be come, it's still here!
Ye Ping knew that Empress Dowager Qi kept him, and besides Ye Taicheng, the other thing was to investigate the case. Sure enough, the relationship was closer, so he began to investigate the case.
"My nephew planned to start from the empress dowager's daily life. It was impossible for the poisoned person to leave any clues. So he asked about the little eunuchs and palace maids in Cining Palace, arrested them, and tortured them one by one, and naturally he would know."
Ye Ping nodded, with a vicious aura, which scared the little palace maids and eunuchs around him to the ground with pale faces, their legs shivered, and they all fell to the ground one by one.
Especially the little palace maid who just handed Ye Ping a smile, her face changed even more. She didn't understand why such a pretty boy was so evil.
"Well, it's a solution, but it's a bit too much. They are all people I'm used to using. If they change them, I'm afraid they'll be a little uncomfortable. Moreover, if you check this way, you'll be afraid that you'll be scolded. And the matters in the palace are complicated and secret, and if you know too much, it's not good for you..."
Queen Mother Qi smiled and said.
Ye Ping's face was dull and a little cramped.
"It's okay, my aunt will ask them for help... You are Taicheng's son and the nephew of the Ai family. My aunt will naturally not let your head fall."
Empress Dowager Qi patted Ye Ping on the shoulder and said with a gentle smile.
"Thank you, aunt."
Ye Ping raised his head happily and looked grateful.
But he knew very well in his heart that Empress Dowager Qi was making hints to him and left everything to her for disposal, so don't investigate it in depth.
"It's okay, remember the words of my aunt. The water in the palace is very deep and muddy. My aunt has been here for a lifetime and has not been able to tell the truth... In the past few days, you come to Cining Palace, without having to spread it, just come..." Empress Dowager Qi looked at Ye Ping, with sighing in her eyes. After sighing, she called the little palace maid who gave the box to Ye Ping and said, "Send Ye Ping out of the palace. If anyone comes to visit, she will say that the Ai family is resting."
"The nephew surrendered."
Ye Ping clasped his fists and retreated outside the house. At the same time, he saw that Empress Dowager Qi had raised her hand and called the palace maid, helping her to lie down on the bed to rest.
Along the way, the little palace lady looked in a panic. She looked at Ye Ping, wanting to speak but stopping, her eyes were red and tears were spinning inside.
"Go back, you have no suspicion. Tell them that I will not let the murderer go, but I will not blame a good person for mistakes."
Ye Ping looked at her and felt funny, and felt even more pitiful, and chuckled.
"Thank you, thank you..."
When the little palace maid heard the sound, she cried with joy, wiped her tears while thanking her deeply, and then ran backward like a bird leaving the cage to report good news to her companions.
Once you enter the palace gate, you will be as deep as the sea, and your life will be as thin as paper.
Ye Ping looked at the back of the little palace maid and sighed softly. These little palace maids and eunuchs were flying sand and swirling with the wind, and they could not help themselves, duckweed and ants.
The next moment, Ye Ping put his spiritual thoughts into the storage ring to see what the rewards received for the treatment of Empress Dowager Qi were. Although he didn't take a look at it before, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the text introduction in the Qingnang Book, which seemed a bit long...
