Quickly wear a life of peace

Song Zhaoci was taken away for interrogation, and all his men were arrested and put into the Tianlao.

Dongfang Yunzheng summoned the imperial physician to examine his and Duoduo's pulses and check for the poison.

Although I don’t know why the two of them are fine, since Song Zhaoci said so, he must have really poisoned them. It’s better to ask the imperial physician to check it out.

Duoduo just stayed aside, saying nothing, thinking about what was going on here.

She also felt that Song Zhaoci and his group were not thorough enough. They didn't bribe the imperial guards?

What's the point of just taking down the emperor? Is it just for revenge?

Then what? He himself would not live anymore? Would his subordinates be willing?

After the imperial physician examined the two men, he found nothing and there were no signs that they were poisoned.

I checked their tea and snacks again, and still found nothing wrong.

Duoduo then reminded, "Will someone notice the abnormality and change it? I don't know if it was the medicine that was changed, or the drugged thing."

Dongfang Ye and the imperial doctors thought it was possible, so they conducted a thorough investigation of the imperial palace and the palace of the third princess, Princess Anshun.

You know what, I actually found out a lot of things, especially about the emperor's harem, there were so many medicinal powders with various functions.

Of course Duoduo wasn't supposed to know this, she only heard it from Wu Xuan.

She is the empress dowager after all. Even if her relationship with the emperor is average, she is still the most honorable man in the palace and has the ability to gather information.

In addition, Wu Xuan also gave Duoduo an ultimatum, requiring her to choose her legal husband from among the people he picked.

Duoduo didn't mean to delay, she just couldn't find someone she liked. Speaking of marriage, Duoduo also thought of the heroine Hao Ying, and Su Jin, who she fell in love with.

It’s not that she fell in love with Su Jin, but this man was so good-looking that it was hard to forget him.

And now Duoduo is a little curious about how Hao Ying and him are doing.

After calling in the subordinates to inquire, I learned that the two had already gotten together. Although they had not yet married, their relationship was very sweet.

Su Jin's sister was also arranged by Hao Ying to go to school.

I have to sigh, she is worthy of being the heroine, she is so lucky.

There will be no more interactions between them in the future, so Duoduo sent them back and there was no need to keep watching them anymore.

Duoduo finally chose Zhang Xiao, a man from a humble family, whose grandmother was Zhang Tingfang, who had been the director of the Imperial Hospital, and whose mother was only the chief clerk of the Honglu Temple, as her husband.

There was no other consideration in choosing this person, except that he is tall and handsome. I heard that he learned medicine at home and practiced Ba Duan Jin to strengthen his body.

Zhang Xiao's qualifications were not outstanding among the other young men, and he was also a man who knew how to hide his shortcomings and was not ostentatious or stand out, which made Duoduo quite satisfied.

Although Wu Xuan felt that this young man was not good enough for his daughter, since Duoduo liked him so much, he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Duoduo tried to persuade him, "Father, with my daughter's status and position, which young man can be higher than me? If we have to choose, we should choose someone who is both smart and not troublesome, so that the harem can be peaceful in the future, right? The concubines in my sister's harem are all from good families, but look at their methods, and I really don't like them."

Wu Xuan thought that his daughter was frightened by what happened in the palace before, and he became even more displeased with the emperor.

The person was selected, and because Duoduo was not young anymore, the process was quickly completed. The time was tight, and the new person would be able to enter the mansion in half a year.

Song Zhaoci finally confessed. The number of men left for him by Yunze Country was less than half, so he had to act at all costs without being fully prepared.

And the reason he was able to enter the emperor's palace was because of the secret passage that the emperor left for him.

After Duoduo knew about this, he was speechless. Isn’t the frequency of this secret passage appearing too high?

So many things have happened in the palace because of the secret passage, but the emperor still kept it. What a pity that he didn't use it, and it was all used by the enemy.

Now that the matter has been clarified, Duoduo no longer pays attention to it and continues to live his happy life every day.

Although there were many bad rumors about him in the capital, and many people were glad that their children did not marry King Xiaoyao, there were also many people who sympathized with or laughed at Zhang Xiao, and felt that his future would not be easy.

However, some smart people could see that Duoduo was not doing anything messy. He went to the brothel just to drink and listen to songs, and went to the theater just to listen to operas.

She would often send gifts to Zhang's son, and was not as unruly as the rumors said.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Duoduo got married.

After getting married, Duoduo no longer went to the brothel. Instead, she took her husband and sometimes her father Wu Xuan, chartered a boat and went to the river to listen to folk songs together.

In Duoduo's words, "The songs sung by the young men in the brothels are the most artistic."

Wu Xuan and Zhang Xiao agreed deeply. After listening to it, they also felt that it was indeed fascinating.

The good times didn't last long. Dongfang Yunzheng got crazy for some reason and actually ran out of the palace and boarded the flower boat chartered by Duoduo.

Duoduo had no choice but to entertain her. The two of them drank wine and listened to music, completely unaware that they were surrounded by people outside.

It was not until the shouts and screams were heard that the two men reacted and realized that they were being ambushed.

Dongfang Yunzheng was surrounded and protected by many people.

Duoduo quickly ordered people to hide Wu Xuan and Zhang Xiao, and then went out of the cabin to check the situation.

Duoduo walked out of the cabin and found that there were large ships blocking their way in four directions.

The people on the boats didn't waste any time and started shooting arrows.

A large number of arrows were shot at their flower boat as densely as raindrops, as if to shoot the entire flower boat into a sieve.

Duoduo and Dongfang Yunzheng did not bring too many guards. Facing such a well-prepared and powerful enemy, they were no match at all.

For the safety of everyone, Duoduo decided to take a risk.

She jumped into the water, dove underwater, and swam as hard as she could to a nearby boat.

While dodging the arrows, she used her inner strength to break the bottom of the boat.

After successfully destroying one ship, Duoduo quickly swam to the next one.

With her efforts, she pierced several ships. Then, the people on the ships jumped off the ships and started a close combat with Duoduo.

In this fierce battle, Duoduo was seriously injured.

Her face was scratched by arrows and was bleeding, and her body was covered with wounds of varying sizes.

The most serious injury was to her left hand, which was almost disabled after being hit by a bow. From then on, she could no longer use force.

Duoduo fought tenaciously, using up her last bit of strength. But she persisted and refused to give up.

Finally, she waited for the rescuer to arrive. When she saw that the brothel was finally safe, she breathed a sigh of relief and fainted with peace of mind.
