After Chu Qingyan entered the palace, she was placed in a palace. Since she seldom entered the palace, she could not recognize where it was in the palace, but she could see that the location was not remote, not a cold palace. and so on.
As soon as she entered the hall, Madam Jiang said that she would go and report to Concubine Yue first, and then she left.
After walking for a while, she was very bored, so she began to look at the structure of the entire palace, in fact, she was observing the guards around.
She found that the surrounding area was heavily guarded, and the palace guards were patrolling back and forth. One post at five steps and one post at ten steps. Even if flies flew in, she could see it at a glance. She couldn't help frowning. She was just an ordinary person, why did Concubine Yue detain her like this , just like watching a prisoner, the four accompanying maids are still waiting by her side, not leaving an inch, and there is no personal freedom at all.
Originally, she didn't really look forward to seeing Concubine Yue, but now she wants to meet immediately and let her go back early, so she doesn't want to stay in this unpopular place.
The waiting time was agonizing, she had to find something to do, so she found a few books on the desk, "The Female Ring"? "Three Obedience and Four Virtues"? What the hell is this
She twitched the corners of her mouth, gave up the idea of reading, and decided to be a quiet beauty.
After calming down, her five senses became very sensitive. There was a faint fragrance in the air, which was very pleasant. She could distinguish some of the fragrances, such as jasmine, such as cold plum...
what else? She suddenly felt that her head was a little heavy, how could...
The four palace maids who had been paying close attention to Chu Qingyan saw her lying on the table, they immediately walked over and sent her to the bed.
"This way, there shouldn't be any commotion," said one of the palace maids.
"Well, she's too smart, fortunately, she brought this incense, at least it can make her sleepy until dawn." Another palace maid, Yi Yi, agreed.
It didn't take long for someone from Yuegong to come over to hear the news, and when they learned that Chu Qingyan was asleep, they went back to resume their lives.
"It's best to have no noise. Tomorrow, the Japanese palace will meet her for a while. If she is interested, this palace will arrange for her to meet with Ran'er."
Concubine Yue had just returned to the palace, when she heard the news, she snorted coldly and told them to "greet" her.
After the people left, Madam Jiang stepped forward and pinched her shoulders for her master.
"Niangniang, is it really feasible for us to trick Chu Qingyan into the palace like this? King Ying is not a good master."
Concubine Yue smiled when she heard Mama Jiang's worried words, she picked up the teacup and took a slow sip before closing the lid and said, "Do you think Ben Gong would be so stupid to face Xiao Xu directly? This time, Ben The palace is pulling your majesty into the water, and with your majesty as a backer, Xiao Xu will not trouble this palace."
"I'm stupid, I don't know what the mother means?" Jiang Ma was still at a loss.
At this time, Concubine Yue was in a good mood, so she did not hesitate to explain.
"A few days ago, Your Majesty suddenly got angry in the imperial study for some reason, and then found Ran'er and promised to help him break the engagement between Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan. Today, His Majesty suddenly brought Xiao Xu into the palace, thinking about it with your fingers. , I also know His Majesty's purpose, and now Ben Gong has brought Chu Qingyan into the Palace, whether His Majesty or Xiao Xu is investigating, Ben Gong has borrowed the name of Ran'er being seriously ill."
"In this way, Your Majesty is reluctant to commit the crime to Ben Gong, but Xiao Xu will think that Ben Gong has been ordered by His Majesty, and will only target His Majesty. Originally His Majesty wanted to force Xiao Xu to see how he endured it. After so many years, how much ability is there? It’s a pity that Your Majesty is indecisive and undecided, so Ben Gong does a good thing and pushes him. At this time, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and Your Majesty has to concentrate on dealing with Xiao Xu.”
Speaking of this, Concubine Yue showed a sinister smile, "Once the trapped beast is forced into a desperate situation, there will definitely be a counterattack, but this palace is very curious about what it will be like."
Mammy Jiang suddenly realized, "Don't blame Niangniang for letting me wait to pick up someone while the King of England is in the palace, so that's the intention."
"Yes, at that time, Xiao Xu will think that this is just His Majesty's plan to turn the tiger away from the mountain, and to attack the West. In this way, Xiao Xu's resentment towards His Majesty will only increase. Anyway, His Majesty doesn't like him, so let them be Go fight!"
Concubine Yue is proud, as long as Xiao Xu is resolved, then Ran'er will not have to run away in the position of the prince, and can satisfy his wish to get Chu Qingyan. When the beauty is in her arms, she is not afraid that he will not be obedient and inherit the throne.
"My lady is wise!" Jiang Ma immediately complimented her diligently.
Concubine Yue was complacent and drank tea slowly.
This time, she must get rid of Xiao Xu's unsightly thorn in the flesh, slap Liang Hou's face hard, and then carry forward their Fu family, and she will become the master of the harem that attracts everyone's attention!
At the same time, a man in a black uniform walked quickly towards the imperial study.
After a while, he appeared in front of Emperor Xixuan.
"Last General Li Weiyuan sees His Majesty, long live His Majesty! Long live!"
Emperor Xixuan watched his most proud confidant return with a smile on his face, "Li Aiqing doesn't need to be too polite, it must be very hard to get up and talk!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
When Li Weiyuan got up, Emperor Xixuan noticed the blood on his suit and frowned, "Why is Aiqing so embarrassed?"
Li Weiyuan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the last commander is about to report this to you. When he was on the way to Fengtai Mountain, the last commander encountered two people fighting, one of which was His Royal Highness the Third Prince."
"King Yi? What the hell is going on?" Emperor Xixuan narrowed his eyes.
"The last commander doesn't know the cause. All I know is that His Royal Highness the Third Prince was assassinated by an assassin of unknown origin on his way to Huguo Temple. They are very thin. If the last commander hadn't arrived, I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Third Prince—"
Li Weiyuan recalled the scene at that time and shook his head.
"How is King Yi now?"
"King Yi's carriage fled in the chaos, but was blocked on the road. King Yi was seriously injured and unconscious. The last commander has sent him back to the palace for diagnosis and treatment." Li Weiyuan replied.
"That's good, have those assassins been caught?" Although he didn't care much about this son, he was still one of the few princes in the royal family. Emperor Xixuan still asked a question. He learned that he had returned to the manor to heal his wounds. Take it easy.
"These people are very cunning. The end general didn't catch them, and they even took away the bodies of their companions. They didn't even leave a trace at the scene. It's really hateful." Li Weiyuan said angrily.
"You dare to sneak attack on the prince and despise the imperial power. You are really bold. I will give you full authority to investigate and follow up this matter. We must arrest these people and bring them to justice!" Xixuan Emperor Longyan was furious and immediately gave an order.
"Yes." Li Weiyuan took the order, and then he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty, for these assassins, I will have a feeling of deja vu."
