He conspired against her in his previous life, and he flirted with her on their wedding night again

Royal study room.

As usual, the emperor came back from court and sat there reviewing memorials.

Eunuch Yuan was serving on the side.

The two young eunuchs were adding silver frost charcoal into the charcoal basin.

Xiao Xizi stepped forward quietly and whispered something in Eunuch Yuan's ear.

Eunuch Yuan was shocked and whispered, "Can you tell me why you do this?"

Xiao Xizi shook his head, "No."

Eunuch Yuan waved his hand, and the two busy eunuchs withdrew, and the two eunuchs guarding the door of the imperial study also retreated.

The emperor was still reading the memorials when Eunuch Yuan said, "Your Majesty, Prince Ling asks you to move to Prince Cheng's mansion."

The emperor frowned.

Let him go to Prince Cheng’s Palace?

Prince Cheng is missing, his wife is in Jingci Temple, his son is in Huguo Temple, and in the eyes of the emperor, Prince Cheng's mansion is no different from an empty house.

Before the King Cheng's conspiracy was exposed, it would not have been worthy for the Emperor to go there, let alone the fact that the King is no longer here.

But the emperor knew that his son would not do such a thing for no reason, so he asked, "Why do you want me to go to Prince Cheng's Mansion?"

Eunuch Yuan shook his head, "No..."

Eunuch Yuan wanted to speak but stopped.

The emperor said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Eunuch Yuan said, "Prince Ling didn't say why he wanted the emperor to go to Chengwang Mansion, but he wanted the emperor... to go..."

Eunuch Yuan spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.

Especially the word "must", it trembled as it rolled out of my throat.

Even the Empress Dowager, the Emperor's biological mother, did not dare to use such words to address the Emperor.

In the past, when the emperor summoned Prince Ling, Prince Ling always turned a deaf ear to him. Now he dares to order the emperor around, and he does it in such a way... It's extremely treasonous.

Eunuch Yuan glanced at the emperor cautiously. Seeing that the emperor's face was as dark as a gloom, Eunuch Yuan was frightened and knelt down, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am just delivering a message..."

Eunuch Yuan really wanted to cry.

Sooner or later, his life will be destroyed by Prince Ling.

Not to mention him, even the emperor’s life might be in danger. He might be angered to death by Prince Ling one day.

If you want the emperor to go to Chengwang Palace, he should at least come in person to invite him. It's impossible to send a guard to pass on the message.

How could the emperor leave the palace at will, especially when there was no master in Prince Cheng's Mansion. God knows why Prince Ling wanted the emperor to go to Prince Cheng's Mansion.

and many more.

Why is Prince Ling in Prince Cheng’s mansion?

Eunuch Yuan thought of this, and the emperor also thought of it.

The emperor's face was gloomy, but it softened a bit. "Bring me some casual clothes."

Eunuch Yuan asked, "Your Majesty wants to go to Prince Cheng's Mansion in casual clothes?"

The emperor said unhappily, "Can I still go there with such fanfare?!"

Eunuch Yuan slapped his own mouth and quickly stood up to get his casual clothes.

The emperor took off his dragon robe, changed into casual clothes, and left the palace directly.

As for the Right Prime Minister, he had some matters to discuss with the Emperor, so he entered the palace in a sedan chair. Just as he arrived at the palace gate, the wind lifted a corner of the curtain. The Right Prime Minister glanced out and happened to see the Emperor in plain clothes, riding on a horse.

The Right Prime Minister thought he was seeing things, and then he saw Eunuch Yuan again.

The right prime minister opened the carriage curtain and stuck his head out.

If that silhouette isn't the emperor, then who else could it be?

How could the emperor leave the palace so easily?

And he only brought Eunuch Yuan and a few guards with him. If he ran into any danger outside the palace...

Eunuch Yuan did not stop the emperor from leaving the palace. If he could not stop him, he should have reported it to the empress dowager.

The right prime minister had a headache and quickly ordered his servant, "Turn around and catch up with them."

Boy, "..."

Let them, with their two legs, carry the sedan chair and chase the four-legged horse?

Are they crazy or is the master crazy?

The right prime minister urged, "Hurry up."

The servant carrying the sedan chair turned around and ran after the horse.

Chengwang Mansion was not far from the Imperial Palace. It was freezing cold and early in the morning, so there were few pedestrians on the street. It only took a quarter of an hour to reach the gate of Chengwang Mansion.

Looking at the gilded plaque of Prince Cheng's Palace, the emperor's face became as long as a horse's.

The gate of Prince Cheng’s palace was closed.

The emperor sat on his horse without moving, so Eunuch Yuan went to knock on the door.

The people in Prince Cheng's mansion didn't expect someone to knock on the door. They opened the door cursing, and then they saw that it was Eunuch Yuan who knocked on the door. They were so scared that their knees went weak.

The servants did not recognize the emperor, but Eunuch Yuan had come to Prince Cheng's mansion to deliver rewards and had visited Prince Cheng's son several times on behalf of the emperor, so the gatekeeper recognized him.

The servant asked, "Why is Eunuch Yuan here?"

Eunuch Yuan did not reply to the servant. He turned around and looked at the emperor. By then, the emperor had already got off his horse and strode into Prince Cheng's palace.

The gatekeeper wanted to stop him but didn't dare. As a servant, he couldn't tell that Eunuch Yuan was being respectful to this man. The gatekeeper vaguely guessed that this was the emperor.

Eunuch Yuan asked, "Where is King Cheng's study?"

The servant said hurriedly, "Over there."

"lead the way."

Although the servant was curious about how the emperor came to the Chengwang Palace and went to the study, he did not dare to ask more questions and led the way silently.

The servant led the emperor to the courtyard where the study was, and saw a man coming out of the study from a distance.

The servant said, "……!!!"

Isn’t that Prince Ling’s guard?

How could it be in their Chengwang Mansion? !

This guard always follows Prince Ling wherever he goes.

If the guards are here, then Prince Ling must be here too? !

The servant brought the person to the study, and Eunuch Yuan waved his hand and stopped the servant from following.

The emperor stepped into the courtyard and entered Prince Cheng's study, but when he entered the study, he did not see Xie Jingyan's figure. Instead, he saw that the door of the dark room was open.

Chen Feng said, "The prince is in the dark room."

The emperor frowned.

What secrets are hidden in King Cheng's dark room that Yan'er must have him come?

The emperor walked towards the dark room.

Eunuch Yuan followed closely behind.

Eunuch Yuan is not afraid of danger. Although Prince Ling often makes the emperor angry, he will never do anything to hurt the emperor. Eunuch Yuan is very relieved about this.

But when he entered the dark room, he found it was an ice cellar. Eunuch Yuan found it unbelievable. It was normal to have an ice cellar in the palace. Most noble families would have ice cellars. But digging an ice cellar in the study was something Eunuch Yuan had never heard of, let alone seen it.

After walking down who knows how many steps, Eunuch Yuan was shivering with cold. Just when he was worried that the emperor would get cold, he saw Xie Jingyan and Concubine Chen lying on the ice platform.

Eunuch Yuan, "......!!!"

Eunuch Yuan was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.

He knew that Concubine Chen was missing.

But how could the body of Concubine Chen be in Prince Cheng's mansion? !

The emperor was walking in front, and when he saw the Concubine Chen, he slowed down his pace. His legs felt as heavy as a thousand pounds and he could not move.

When Concubine Chen got into trouble in Yan's Mansion, he asked her what happened, but Concubine Chen didn't say a word except crying. In a rage, he sent her to the cold palace and demoted Yan'er to guard the imperial mausoleum, just to force Concubine Chen to speak.

But she never told him what happened that day. He never went to the cold palace again. When Concubine Chen committed suicide by taking poison and the Empress Dowager asked Madam Zhao to collect her body, he did not even go to take a last look.

He never thought that he would see her again after so many years.

She just lay there peacefully, as if she was asleep.

The wound that had not healed for so many years was torn open again and bleeding the moment he saw Concubine Chen.

The emperor turned his gaze away from Concubine Chen's face and looked at Xie Jingyan. He used all his strength to ask, "Why is your mother here?"

Xie Jingyan's eyes were red, his face was full of coldness and mockery, "Father, do you think I would know?"

He also wanted to know why his mother was here. His father asked him who to ask?

The imperial decree flashed through Xie Jingyan's mind -

Queen Mother!
