Chapter 57 Take the initiative to ask for help

Butler Qian was shocked when he heard this: "This...how is this possible? My lady has never had anything to do with the Forbidden Army. Is there any misunderstanding here?"

Deacon Yan shook his head and said helplessly: "I don't know what is going on here! You know that we are just making incense, how can we know about the official affairs?" After thinking about it, he sighed: "Hey, we

The master of the pavilion has been taken away, I think you should go back as soon as possible and inform Mr. Qu about this, maybe he has some ideas, don't delay and let the young lady suffer inside."

After hearing this, Butler Qian immediately left and went back to report to Qu Chensong.

In the pavilion in the courtyard of the Qu family, Qu Chensong was leaning against a red painted pillar. Mrs. Qin was sitting next to him, fanning himself and holding a tea bowl, handing it to him for tasting.

Butler Qian trotted over from a distance, but Qu Zhenzhen was nowhere to be seen behind him. Mrs. Qin had a sneer on her lips and said, "It seems that Butler Qian can't invite the eldest daughter of the Qu family to go home."

After hearing this, Qu Chensong coughed twice and slammed the tea bowl on the coffee table. Mrs. Qin hurriedly stopped her mouth and did not dare to say anything.

In the past two days, Qu Chensong's health has been getting better, but his heart has never been relaxed. He knew in his heart that as long as he lived, he could not escape his family's mission. Even if he died on the way to help the royal family find incense, he could not die of illness at home.

Therefore, he had already made plans to say goodbye to the Queen Mother and the Emperor. But before that, he wanted to see that stubborn daughter, whom he had not seen for many years, and who was also his only legitimate daughter. After all, he would

It is very likely that, like his father and grandfather, he will never come back.

Seeing Butler Qian coming alone, Qu Chensong just thought that Qu Zhenzhen was still angry with him and did not want to step into this house, and she felt a little annoyed in her heart. Unexpectedly, as soon as Butler Qian entered the pavilion, he knelt down with a plop and said

: "Sir, it's not good, the lady is in jail!"

When Qu Chensong heard this, he stood up anxiously, coughing as he stood up. Mrs. Qin quickly stood up and supported her: "Steward Qian, please explain more clearly, what is going on?"

Butler Qian repeated what he heard in Tianxiang Pavilion, and finally said cautiously: "Master, if you don't care about Miss this time, I'm afraid no one will be able to save her!"

After hearing this, Qu Chensong didn't say anything. He just asked Qin to persuade him to go back to his room, changed into court clothes, and went to the palace.

I heard that when Qu Chensong asked to see the emperor, Queen Mother Fan was dressing up in the mirror. She looked at her beautiful face and was secretly anxious. The one-year period was approaching, but the Zhuyan Pills had not been delivered. If this continues,

I'm afraid this carefully maintained appearance will be ruined.

Mr. Fan was quite surprised when he heard the maid's report. After thinking about it for a moment, he thought that his condition was getting better today and he took the initiative to invite him. He immediately stood up and said: "Come on, let's go and take a look."

The Qu family's search for incense started from the time of Emperor Taizu Mu Liancheng. However, it was so secret that except for the emperor himself and the head of the Qu family, almost no one else knew about it. Even the queen and the beloved concubine could only hear about it accidentally.

Second, what we know is not true.

When Taizu Mu Liancheng and ancestor Mu Rongrui were still alive, they sent Qu Chensong's grandfather Qu Linfeng and father Qu Yongzhong to go to sea to search for incense. However, on the surface, they were all looking for the jade seal passed down from the previous Kun Dynasty.

The search for incense was not mentioned. It was only by chance that Fan learned that they were looking for jade seals on the surface, but their actual purpose was to search for incense, something that could make people immortal.

The name of the fragrance is "Quiexiang".

The reason why I chose the Qu family was because there was news at that time that the Chuanguo Yuxi and Queshixiang were both in the East China Sea, which was a long way from Ziyang City. Qu Linfeng was the most trusted personal guard of Taizu Mulian City, and their family had a family tradition.

His unique ability is that he is naturally sensitive to direction and can identify the direction without relying on a compass. This skill is really necessary in the treacherous East China Sea.

However, despite this, two generations of the Qu family never returned. It is said that some news about Yu Xi and Que Shixiang once reached Ziyang City, but they were not found in the end. Qu Linfeng and Qu Yongzhong went to sea together.

All the soldiers were also lost in the vast East China Sea, with no news at all.

When the late emperor Mu Tianji came to see him, he did not believe in the theory of immortality and had no interest in the jade seal inherited from the previous dynasty, so he never let the Qu family embark on that road of no return. The Qu family thought that from now on, they could

They lived a stable life, but they didn't expect that Queen Mother Fan would bring up old matters again, and they could not avoid this fate.

In the Zichen Hall, Qu Chensong was kneeling on the ground. Seeing that he looked emaciated, Fan said with concern: "The master of the Qu family has been ill for several days and has lost a lot of weight. Please get up quickly!" After that, he gave him a seat.

Qu Chensong thanked him quickly and did not dare to sit down. He only said: "Thank you, Queen Mother. Your Majesty cares about me. I am now well. Today I am here to ask for orders to go to sea to find things that should belong to our Da'an country."

The Queen Mother and the Emperor looked at each other and smiled, both quite satisfied. Mu Junyan stood up slightly, raised his hand to support her and said: "Qu Aiqing can do this, it comforts my heart. Quickly lie down, sit down and talk."

Qu Chensong then carefully sat down on the chair and said respectfully: "It is truly an honor for Qu Mou to serve the Emperor and the Queen Mother."

Fan smiled and said: "Master Qu, I have always known that you are aware of current affairs. Just take stock of what you need to prepare and just ask. After you go out, the emperor and the Ai family will take care of the food and clothing of your family.

Just go in peace."

When Qu Chensong heard what the Queen Mother said, he quickly knelt down and said: "Thank you, the Queen Mother, for your care. Everything our Qu family has was given by the Emperor and the Queen Mother. How can we dare to take extra care of it? My Qu family is serving the country."

It’s my duty, I really shouldn’t make any demands.” After saying that, he kowtowed deeply.

Qu Chensong did not stand up, but touched his forehead to the ground and continued: "I am going to leave in three days. Before I leave, I have only one unkind request. I hope the emperor will give me permission."

Mu Junyan looked at his solemn expression and couldn't think of what kind of request he would make, so he said: "If you have any request for me, just say it."

Qu Chensong raised his head and said: "I heard that my daughter was unfaithful and was involved in a case in Tianxiang Pavilion. She has been imprisoned. I am worried that I will not know when I will return, so I hope that the emperor will allow my beloved daughter to be released."

Selfishly, let me meet my beloved daughter before leaving." After saying that, he nodded again and waited for the emperor's reply.

Mu Junyan and the Queen Mother looked at each other. They were not actually concerned about the people involved in the Tianxiang Pavilion case, and they did not know that Qu Chensong's legitimate daughter was among them.

"You said your daughter was also in Tianxiang Pavilion? And was involved in it?" Mu Junyan couldn't figure out how the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family could go out to make incense, so he confirmed it again.

Qu Chensong lowered his head and explained: "Reporting to the emperor, it is because the old minister's upbringing was not strict. A few years ago, my beloved daughter had a big quarrel with the old minister over the marriage and ran away from home. Then she went to Tianxiang Pavilion to find a job and never came back.

Jia. I also went to Tianxiang Pavilion to look for her today and learned the news that she was imprisoned."

After hearing this, Mu Junyan pondered for a moment and said...
