Chapter 62: The Delayed Interrogation (3)
Ah Jiu naturally didn't know that Mo Wanyi was already planning to frame her. However, she was really unlucky today. First she met Mo Wanyi, and then at the entrance of Qinzheng Hall, she met the man who had just left her in the sedan chair.
The empress returning from the palace.
The Queen has been out for a long time, and she came back at this time. She doesn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.
However, no matter what, when she saw Ah Jiu at the entrance of Qinzheng Palace, her face was surprised.
"Why are Sister Shangguan here?" The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, "This is not a place where ordinary concubines can come."
Ah Jiu blinked. When Hui Bao announced the summons, he made it clear that it was His Majesty who summoned her to have an audience with the Queen.
Why is it that the queen doesn't know anything about everything she knows?
She rolled her eyes, smiled and said, "I don't know what's going on. Your Majesty asked me to come, so I came."
She decided it would be better not to irritate Queen Jiao first.
A trace of displeasure flashed across the Queen's face, but she still said: "I know you come to Qinzheng Hall a lot of times, but this is where His Majesty handles political affairs. You should be more alert and don't faint.
head."
Ah Jiu smiled and said, "Jiu'er will follow your empress's teachings."
Queen Jiao glanced at Ah Jiu sideways, curled her lips, and said, "I heard that His Majesty searched your Liangxi Pavilion last night? Is this possible?"
Ah Jiu raised her eyebrows imperceptibly... Liangxi Pavilion was searched last night, and today the Queen returned to the palace, and she knew so clearly about this matter.
If she says that her return to the palace has nothing to do with this incident, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
However, she probably didn't expect that she would meet her as soon as she entered the palace today!
However, now that she is asking this matter so openly, it would be difficult for ordinary people to answer.
Is she trying to trick her?
So he deliberately said with a surprised look on his face: "Who did Sister Queen listen to?"
Queen Jiao raised her eyebrows: "It's spread throughout the palace."
"That's because Your Majesty felt that my Liangxi Pavilion was too deserted, so he asked me to light candles in every room." A Jiuyun said calmly.
"Light candles in every room?" Queen Jiao's face immediately darkened, "Shangguan Jieyu, do you think everyone is a three-year-old child?"
As she said that, she shook her head, took Ah Jiu's hand, and said in a serious voice: "Sister Shangguan, your Majesty summoned you today, I'm afraid it's just for this matter.
If you have any concerns, you must tell me, otherwise, when I see Your Majesty later, I won’t even have a chance to intercede for you!"
"Thank you, Sister Queen. It's really fine. I just lit candles!" Ah Jiu continued to say with a smile.
"Humph!" Seeing that she might not be able to get any words out of her mouth, the Queen snorted softly, ignored Ah Jiu, and turned back to continue walking forward.
As she walked, she said, "Since you don't want to say it, forget it! Come in with me quickly, don't keep His Majesty waiting."
"Yes, empress!" Ah Jiu smiled and followed the queen, and they entered the Qinzheng Hall together.
After arriving at the Qinzheng Hall, the two of them were led to the study room, where He Boyu was sitting behind the desk handling the memorial.
