Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

Prison warden.

The short man was tied to a stone pillar and whipped with a whip dipped in salt water until his skin was torn.

No one could withstand this barbed whip. The short man grinned in pain and kept cursing. However, all he spoke was the language of birds and he was unable to communicate at all.

Ye Jingyu looked at him with a gloomy face and asked coldly: "Do you know what Zhongyuan said, why did you want to assassinate Xuan'er?"

The short man babbled and said something full of words like "Baga".

Ye Jingyu turned his face and looked at Yin Qingxuan.

"Xuan'er, can you understand?"

Yin Qingxuan shook his head.

"I only knew he was cursing, but I couldn't understand the rest."

Ye Jingyu asked again: "Does Xuan'er know these people?"

"I don't know them. This is my first time seeing them."

Yin Qingxuan also felt strange about their malice.

These people went straight to him with clear intentions, but he did not offend them, which was a bit strange.

A quarter of an hour later, the short man had been beaten until his skin was torn, his flesh and blood were blurred, and he passed out.

The warden poured a bucket of cold water on her and started beating her again. Ye Jingyu didn't want Yin Qingxuan to see these cruel scenes, so he took her out of the warden.

"Xuan'er, don't worry. Tomorrow morning, I will ask if there is anyone who can understand the birdsong. As long as we can communicate, we can find out the truth."

Seeing Ye Jingyu's tense expression, Yin Qingxuan smiled.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Now that the person has been captured, the results will be known sooner or later. Moreover, I have the ability to protect myself. It is not that easy for them to deal with me."

Ye Jingyu said with cold eyes: "We tried our best but only caught one. As long as they are still in the capital, they are a great threat to Xuan'er."

Yin Qingxuan pretended to be relaxed and said: "There are many masters in the palace, and there are many secret guards, so I am not worried."

"I'm worried."

Ye Jingyu took Yin Qingxuan's hand and said with a serious face: "My journey with Xuan'er has been quite bumpy. I don't want anything to happen to Xuan'er again. From today on, Xuan'er will no longer go to the Imperial College." .”

Yin Qingxuan bit her lip.

"But... I haven't finished teaching the Imperial Academy yet. It's not good for me to give up halfway."

Ye Jingyu said without any doubt: "We can teach you knowledge later. Xuan'er's safety is the most important."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Yin Qingxuan could only nod.

"Then listen to the emperor."

While talking, he had arrived at Jinwu Palace.

Ye Jingyu stopped.

"I'm going to see Jueying and come back later."

"Okay, then I will go back first."

Yin Qingxuan was slightly blessed, turned around and entered Jinwu Palace.

When he returned to the palace, his brows instantly wrinkled.

It was too strange why these people attacked her.

Did they get the wrong person?

But thinking about it, it's impossible. The previous warning signs should be that these people were following him. With such accuracy, there must be a reason.

I just regret that I didn't learn the small language of my childhood, otherwise I might still be able to understand some of it.

There is another point that Yin Qingxuan does not understand.

The surrounding small countries of Zhou State are all barbarians, and they have never heard of the small days. Where did these people come from?

Yin Qingxuan sat on the chair and thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a reason, so she simply stopped wasting her brain.

After coming to the side hall and playing with Xiao Nanfeng for a while, it was time to finish the meal.

Yin Qingxuan didn't want those dwarfs to affect her, so she made a hot pot to adjust her mood.

But in this way, if the child leaves the palace again, it will not be safe to leave the child in the palace.

These dwarf ghosts come and go. Although one was caught today, there is no guarantee that others will not come to the palace to rescue them. Then don't take advantage of them and hurt Xiao Nanfeng.

Yin Qingxuan was thinking while pulling the mutton in the pot. After a while, Ye Jingyu also came over.

After eating some spicy hot pot, a wave of heat surged throughout his body. Ye Jingyu couldn't help but praise: "Xuan'er discovered that this food is really good. It's perfect for eating when the weather is cold."

Yin Qingxuan smiled slightly and said: "If the emperor likes it, we will eat more times."

"Okay, my favorite is barbecue and hot pot."

Ye Jingyu raised his eyes, his dark pupils shining brightly in the candlelight.

Yin Qingxuan held her chin and looked at Ye Jingyu, which made him feel uncomfortable and his ears turned red.

"Why is Xuan'er looking at me like this?"

Yin Qingxuan said generously: "The emperor looks good, and I want to see more of him."

This was the first time Ye Jingyu heard such words that were almost a confession, and he couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.

"If I were old, would Xuan'er still want to watch it?"

Yin Qingxuan raised her face and looked at him with a smile.

"I will also be old by then!"

The little girl's cute and innocent look made Ye Jingyu's heart surge with emotion, and he couldn't help but hug her.

Yin Qingxuan's cheeks were slightly red, and she immediately understood what Ye Jingyu wanted to do.

She didn't refuse, every couple in love would do this kind of thing, and there was nothing to be ashamed of.

When he was dazed, Ye Jingyu's lips had already landed on Yin Qingxuan's neck, which was as thin as jade.

"My Xuan'er will never grow old. In my eyes, she will always be as young and beautiful as she is now."

A low voice sounded from his ears, with an irresistible temptation, and the delicate bite made people feel unbearably itchy, and Yin Qingxuan couldn't help but hook his neck.

"Don't... um..."

The words of protest were immediately pushed back into his stomach, and the delicate passionate kiss instantly made Yin Qingxuan lose the consciousness of thinking.

The fiery bodies quickly merged together, regardless of each other...

The next day.

Ye Jingyu got up early and went to court.

A night of fun did not make him feel tired. Instead, he was restrained and energetic.

Yin Qingxuan was like a puddle of soft mud, not wanting to move at all. Listening to the low voices of Ye Jingyu and Li Defu, she fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, the sun had already hung on the treetops.

Everyone in the palace knew that the emperor stayed here last night, so no one came in to disturb him.

Yin Qingxuan stretched out, entered the space and took a bath in the spiritual spring. After coming out, she exchanged a braised pork self-heating meal from the space, and had a simple breakfast with autumn milk tea.

Normally she would be in the Imperial College at this time, but now she suddenly couldn't leave the palace. Yin Qingxuan suddenly didn't know what to do.

Just as he was about to go out for a walk with Xiao Nanfeng, Xiao Anzi's voice came from outside the door.

"Mother, the warden said that Lu Jingxian bit her tongue yesterday and bled a lot. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for long."

"Oh?"

Yin Qingxuan opened the door.

"What's it like now?"

Xiao Anzi said: "She is half dead. This morning, my servant went to bleed her, but I didn't even hear her cry."

Yin Qingxuan pondered for a moment and said, "Go and have a look."

The master and servant came to the prison warden and saw Lu Jingxian lying motionless on the withered grass.
