Deep Palace Conspiracy: My son will sit on the dragon throne and I will be the queen mother

Emperor Yinde said sternly, "Bring the people up to me!"

The ministers lowered their heads. It seemed that His Majesty was going to personally review the case. After all, it concerned His Royal Highness the Second Prince and Young Master Shangguan. They should be prepared to bear His Majesty's thunderous wrath.

An Yi followed Emperor Yin De's instructions and asked two of his subordinates to escort a man in black in and kneel in front of Emperor Yin De.

"Tell me! Who instructed you to assassinate the prince? Do you know what the crime is?" Emperor Yin De slapped the case and roared angrily, hitting everyone's hearts with every word.

The officials lowered their heads, and no one dared to say anything at this time for fear of being angered by His Majesty.

But the man in black showed a very indifferent look, as if he had already determined that Emperor Yin De did not dare to kill him now.

Emperor Yinde did not dare to kill the only living person now, but the man in black could never imagine how terrible the torture instruments of the Ministry of Punishment and the Secret Guard Camp were. It was really not something that ordinary people could bear.

The man in black still didn't speak, as if he didn't know yet that he was facing a king who was in charge of the world.

"Say it quickly. It's better to say it now than to say it after you have suffered!" Li Fuhai saw his master's face getting darker and darker. He went up directly, took the whisk in his hand, and slapped the man hard on the back. superior.

But to the man in black, these can only be regarded as useless threats.

Seeing that the man in black was silent as if he was mute, An Yi continued, "Your Majesty, my subordinates found weapons on this man. The Second Prince and Young Master Shangguan all have this kind of weapon. My subordinates have never seen it before, and it seems to be unique to them."

Jia Yi took out the small weapon and handed it to Li Fuhai, who then respectfully presented it to Emperor Yin De.

"Why does this weapon look so familiar to me?" Emperor Yinde thought about it carefully. He had indeed seen this weapon before, but he forgot where he had seen it.

"Show them."

Li Fuhai showed the weapon to the ministers. Gu Wenkang took a few glances and came to the conclusion, "Is this the weapon that Qiao Faye was struck by?"

Emperor Yinde also sent people to examine Qiaofa's body, and indeed saw several such weapons, which were stabbed hard into Qiaofa's chest.

Shangguan Xiaolin had also seen Qiao Fazhong's weapons. He stepped forward to check them and nodded in agreement with Gu Wenkang's statement.

"Tell me, who instigated you? After killing Qiaofa, you also wanted to kill your majesty's eldest son and this general's son??" Shangguan Xiaolin grabbed the man's clothes and lost control of his emotions.

The man in black was not even afraid of Emperor Yin De, let alone Shangguan Xiaolin, who naturally refused to speak.

"Take this person to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation immediately!! Don't let him die!" Emperor Yinde roared again and issued an imperial edict directly.

After Qin Shangshu and Ji Xingwang received the order, they immediately sent people to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation. Naturally, such people who did not know how to commend themselves would be severely punished.

After the man in black was taken away, all the courtiers also retreated. Only Emperor Yinde sat in the main hall for a long time.

I don’t know how long it took, but the eldest princess came up with a bowl of ginseng soup and said, “Your Majesty, please use some ginseng soup.”

Emperor Yin De raised his eyes and saw the eldest princess coming. He quickly helped her sit down and said, "I'm causing trouble for my aunt tonight."

The eldest princess shook her head and denied, "Your Majesty, what you said was out of context. No one expected that such a thing would happen. Jue'er and Shixu had just woken up and were eating snacks."

Emperor Yin De nodded slowly, his eyes full of exhaustion. When he knew that Cheng Jue was injured, he was just as worried as Su Qingyao, but as a husband, he could only comfort his wife first.

He remembered that seven years ago, Xiao Nanzi knelt down in front of him in panic, saying that his child had been assassinated. He almost ran all the way to the royal hunting ground. He thought he could save Jin'er, but instead he sent him to the end. One journey.

No one knows how long it took the emperor to get over the grief of losing his beloved son.

When he heard that Chengjue had been assassinated, Emperor Yinde was afraid that the scene seven years ago would happen again. What would he do then?

Fortunately, fortunately, God still favored him in the end.

"Auntie, who do you think did this?"

The eldest princess said softly, "First, assassinate the imperial minister, and then assassinate the prince and his companion. Most people really don't have this ability."

"Your Majesty, you can take a look and see who is the biggest profiteer from this matter. Maybe that's who did it."

If Cheng Jue is really like Cheng Jin, all the princes will be the beneficiaries.

The mothers and concubines of the third prince Chengze and the sixth prince Chengyuan were both on good terms with the queen Su Qingyao, so it was naturally impossible.

The seventh prince Chengrui is the biological brother of the second prince Chengjue, so it is naturally impossible.

On the other hand, after the fourth prince Chengxuan and Liang Jieyu became Chengxuan's mother-in-law, if the Liang family had first killed Chengxuan's biological uncle, so that Chengxuan could completely rely on the Liang family, and then killed Chengjue, Chengxuan would have had one less competitor. , but it is very possible.

Emperor Yinde nodded and completely agreed with the eldest princess's analysis, "No matter who they are, I will never let them go."

"Ahem!" The eldest princess nodded slightly, but accidentally coughed twice.

Emperor Yinde hurried over and patted her back, "Aunt, please take care of yourself."

Since the eldest princess came back, she has suffered from a cough, which gets worse every winter. Emperor Yinde is also very worried about the health of the eldest princess.

"It's an old problem." The eldest princess said and grabbed Emperor Yin De's hand. "Your Majesty, don't worry. Your aunt can't take care of other things now. Can't she still take care of herself?"

The eldest princess said and coughed twice more. Emperor Yin De knew that the eldest princess must be anxious when she heard that Cheng Jue and Shi Xu were assassinated today.

Emperor Yinde sighed slightly. It seemed that he had to send an imperial doctor from the imperial hospital to take care of the eldest princess.

That night, Emperor Yinde and Su Qingyao took Chengjue directly back to the palace. They did not go back to Yuxiu Palace or Fengyi Palace, but directly arranged Chengjue in the side hall of Yangxin Palace.

This was what Emperor Yin De meant. In the past few days, he had put Cheng Jue under a lot of pressure, and now he wanted to protect his son.

When the three of them returned to the Yangxin Hall, it was already midnight. As soon as Chengjue lay on the bed, Concubine Hui Shu and Concubine Wen came with their children.

"Brother Jue'er." Yun Shu and Cheng Ruiren started shouting before they even entered the door.

Chengjue straightened up and tried his best to smile, "Come in quickly."

Yun Shu and Cheng Rui ran at the front. When they saw Emperor Yin De and Su Qingyao, they bowed briefly and ran to Cheng Jue's bed.
