Chapter 2409 An uneasy night (1)
The first thing that caught fire in Cining Palace was discovered by the patrol guards. He ordered his deputy to summon people to put out the fire and went to Kunning Palace.
The Empress Dowager did not go to Cining Palace and burned the palace at most. At that time, the Empress Dowager would temporarily move a place to repair the palace. However, there were the Empress Dowager and two princes in Kunning Palace. If the other party set fire, he would definitely go for them.
Wei Fang brought more than 60 imperial guards to Kunning Palace, but was stopped at the door. The female official in charge said, "Master Wei, the Queen has ordered you to go in alone."
Yi An was worried that someone would sneak into Kunning Palace while he was in trouble, so he was not allowed to enter.
Wei Fang was not only not angry but was very pleased. The Queen of Water Walking in the Palace did not panic, but arranged the defense of Kunning Palace in an orderly manner so that those people had no opportunity to take advantage of.
After reminding his confidant, Wei Fang went in alone.
Yi An asked, "What's going on with water in Cining Palace?"
Wei Fang said calmly: "Someone set fire on purpose, and they also used oil so the fire started very quickly."
Yi An felt a thrill. It would be fine if the water was accidentally left, but someone actually stopped it: "Have you used a lot of oil?"
Seeing him nodding, Yi An's heart suddenly sank: "There are their people in Cining Palace, and this person's status is definitely not low, I just don't know who this person is?"
I am afraid that the Empress Dowager will be the one who is close to her, and this will be even bigger.
Wei Fang's face changed drastically, but he quickly calmed down: "The emperor has always been cautious in his actions, even if this person is by the Empress Dowager, he will not harm the emperor."
There is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no reason to be a thief for a thousand days to defend against it. The other party is deliberately trying to harm the emperor and just one negligence will make them take advantage of the loopholes.
Yi An said: "You will send someone to Xishan to report to the emperor now, saying that there is a problem with the people around the empress dowager, so that the emperor will be careful."
Wei Fang hesitated and said, "Empress, this is just our guess without evidence."
The relationship between the queen and the queen mother is already like fire. If the matter is finally found out that it is a misunderstanding of the relationship between the two, it will probably make it worse.
Yi An shook his head and said, "It will be too late to find the evidence. You can do it. I will bear the consequences if there are any."
Anyway, she and Empress Dowager Zhang are already tired of each other, so it will not be better in the future, so it doesn't matter if they offend each other again.
Wei Fang nodded and said, "Yes..."
After the words came, Gan Wei ran over and said, "Empress, Nan Shuang just brought pastries and tea into the bedroom and was stopped by the black girl. Who would have thought that she would suddenly go crazy and want to stab the black girl..."
This Nanshuang is also a palace maid in Kunning Palace, and she is responsible for serving tea and pouring water. Today, the fire in the Cining Palace made everyone more vigilant. To be safe, Mose doesn't want people who are too much to contact the two princes, so she won't let her enter the bedroom.
Before she could finish her sentence, Yi An ran to the bedroom like a gust of wind.
When she arrived at the door of the bedroom, she saw that Nan Shuang had been subdued. Not only was she tied up and her mouth was also stuffed with cloth strips. Seeing Yi An, Nan Shuang struggled even harder, and there was a look of prayer in her eyes.
Yi An looked at Nan Shuang's eyes with murderous aura. Nan Shuang still struggled to see that she had something to say. Unfortunately, Yi An just glanced at her and then quickly walked into the bedroom.
The twins were awakened by the noise and cried for a while, but they stopped crying and didn't sleep. Madam Du and Mo Xue played with them. Yun Qi was frightened and dared not sleep anymore. Zhuang Bing told him a story to divert his attention.
Seeing Yi An, Yun Qi quickly ran over and hugged him and said, "Mom, where are you going? I want to go find your aunt Zhuang and not allow her."
Yi An touched his head and said, "It's a mess outside. Aunt Zhuang doesn't let you go out for your safety."
Yun Qi raised his head and said, "Mom, where did you leave?"
Yi An touched his head and said, "Your grandmother's palace has gone out of water. She has sent someone to put out the fire. Don't worry, so many people will be able to put out the fire soon. Go to bed quickly!"
Yun Qi was very scared and hugged Yi An and refused to let go: "Mom, you sleep with me."
Yi An still has a lot of things to deal with. How can I have time to sleep with him: "Be good, wait until my mother arranges everything outside before sleeping with you. Now let Madam Du and Aunt Zhuang sleep with you."
Yunqi doesn't want to.
Yi An knew that what happened just now scared him, but he couldn't take him with him. If there were still people in Kunning Palace that were not good for a few children, taking him out would be a living target.
"Aqi, be obedient."
Zhuang Bing said, "The Empress, I force the Second Prince to go to bed and can't sleep anymore. I'll tell him a few more stories, and I'll fall asleep when I relax."
Yi An nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you."
Madam Du followed Yi An to the outside room and asked softly: "There was a noise outside just now. Who wanted to break in?"
As soon as I heard the noise, Mo Xue and Zhuang Bing were guarding the bed.
"Nan Shuang wanted to come in and was stopped by Mo Se, so she attacked Mo Se."
There was a lot of secrets, but unexpectedly, Nan Shuang was bought by the other party. Fortunately, Mo Se discovered that the three children would be in danger.
Madam Du's face changed slightly and she said, "Are you dead?"
"No, I'm suppressed by the black color. I'll leave it to the Feiyuwei people for interrogation later."
Madam Du's expression relaxed slightly, then lowered her voice and said, "Empress, you must seize such a good opportunity."
What she said meant was to put this on Queen Mother Zhang and completely suppress her arrogance. In the future, Yi An would dominate the harem.
Yi An shook his head and said, "I know this in my mind."
She felt that this matter should have nothing to do with Empress Dowager Zhang. Ruonan Shuang wanted to kill her or her instructed her, but now Nan Shuang wanted to kill her children. No matter how crazy the Queen Mother Zhang was, she would not be able to send an assassin to kill her grandson.
Of course, if it were really what Empress Dowager Zhang did, she would definitely not be able to forgive her. If it weren't for her, Yi An would not be willing to use despicable means of frame-up.
Madam Du said it was a pity, but she felt relieved when she thought about Yi An's temperament. It would be a good thing to keep her true heart at all times.
When he walked outside the bedroom, Si Hongxiu said, "Empress, there is no problem with tea and pastries."
Because the emperor was poisoned when he was a child, he was very cautious when he put the things he had in his mouth with silverware and then he was tried. With this double-layer insurance, he had never had any trouble before. Because of this habit, silverware was basically used in Kunning Palace.
Yi An doesn't like to use silverware. She has exclusive tea cups, but the children use silver products, such as silver bowls, silver chopsticks, silver spoons, etc., so it doesn't work to directly poison the food.
"Who called the tea and pastry?"
Mo Se replied: "The pastry was served by the second prince who said he was hungry and asked to serve it. The tea was what Madam Du wanted."
Yi An looked at her and asked, "How did you find out she has a problem?"
Mo Se whispered: "When I took the plate from her, I accidentally touched her fingers and found that her hands were very cold. And she was shocked at that time, and I thought it was wrong and took a step back."
