Lu Sixian didn't return all night, the Eighth Prince and the imperial guards had a quarrel, and finally waited for the emperor's order.

Xiao Lin has never had such a fight with anyone for so many years. After getting the order, he asked people to search inside and out, and he almost pulled out the tree in the garden to see if there were still people in the tree pit. .

In the end, he still got nothing, Xiao Lin led the popularity and walked away calmly.

At this time, Zhao Wenyu, a staff member of the Eastern Palace, came out, looking confident, and said: "Your Highness should not rub against Commander Xiao, after all, he can hold the imperial guards, even if the crown prince is alive, he will give him some face."

"Then you go to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what are you doing in my Eighth Prince's Mansion." Qin Chengzhuo didn't give him face, and felt useless in his heart.

Zhao Wenyu choked, and said embarrassingly: "Your Highness, you are joking, the seventh princess mansion has assassins, why are you mobilizing so many people, have you thought about the consequences?"

"Father has always favored her, so why is that so strange?" Qin Chengzhuo said.

"No, I think there must be a reason, why don't you go find out one or two, when did Commander Xiao listen to His Highness the Seventh Prince like this, and you must not forget that the Seventh Prince and the Ninth Prince are brothers and sisters." Zhao Wenyu said while Staring at his expression closely, beating a snare drum in my heart.

Sure enough, Qin Chengzhuo's complexion suddenly changed, and after weighing it up, he immediately asked people to go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to inquire about it.

Reported an hour later, the Ninth Prince's Mansion was also searched, similar to the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

Circumstances have changed in a way that is confusing.

Qin Chengzhuo had no choice but to look at Zhao Wenyu, his eyes were a little more inquiring, "Mr. Zhao knows the reason?"

"I don't know, why don't you ask the fifth prince after tomorrow's court meeting, maybe there will be results." Zhao Wenyu didn't want to say more, and bowed to leave.

"Old fox." Qin Chengzhuo cursed secretly. Right now, his chances of winning are not great. It is necessary to involve the Ninth Prince in the case of the prince's murder, so that he can be noticed by the emperor.

After Zhao Wenyu left the Eighth Prince's Mansion, he went to the Zhaixing Tower to call a beauty, spent a good night together until Zishi, then went through the back door, shook off his tail, and went to the Zhenbeihou Mansion.

Yu Wenxin met him in the study.

After the two conspired, before dawn, Zhao Wenyu turned back to the Zhaixing Building, as if nothing had happened.

The matter was still caught by Qin Shiyan, and he called the person who served Zhao Wenyu to question him, and learned that he hadn't left all night.

After repeated questioning, the woman faltered and said that last night was too much trouble, Zhao Wenyu woke up after leaving, and didn't know what happened in the middle.

Qin Shiyan was so angry that his forehead hurt, and he wished he could drag Zhao Wenyu back and beat him up, using the Zhaixing Tower as a treasure to escape.

Whether he could bear it or couldn't bear it, he immediately found someone to cover Zhao Wenyu's head and beat him secretly, which made him feel happy.

Go to Duke Qi's mansion and tell Lu Sixian about the matter, who knows that he is not in the mansion, so I don't know where to go to have fun.

He couldn't help complaining to Seventh Sister: "Such a big person goes out to play, and he doesn't bring me with him. Fortunately, I brought something interesting to use her to have fun with."

Qin Ruoqian was in a state of uncertainty, but still asked, "What's interesting?"

Qin Shiyan immediately recounted what happened last night, and was overjoyed. On the contrary, Qin Ruoqian's brows and eyes became more dignified. Zhao Wenyu is the prince's staff, so it is reasonable for the master to go.

"If you hit him, hit him. You go back to the mansion first. When Shi Zi comes back, I will tell her."

"It's okay, I'll go back first." Qin Shiyan laughed for a while before leaving by himself.When I walked out of the Duke's mansion, I felt that something was wrong, and the seventh sister's husband went out to fool around, and the seventh sister was not annoyed at all.Is this a habit?

To marry a wife, you have to marry Seventh Sister who is so tolerant and generous.

Qin Ruoqian, who was in the house, went to the Eighth Prince's Mansion yesterday, feeling very puzzled in her heart, and faintly felt that something serious was going on in her heart, making people keep a close eye on the grown-up prince.

Only adult princes in the capital are so interested in Lu Sixian, most of the other people don't know these secrets.

With a slender figure, her mind was in a mess. Ever since the prince knew Lu Sixian's identity, her secret was no longer a secret.

The prince knows whether An Xiang, whom he relies on, knows.

Going one step further, does the emperor also know?

She was startled and numb all over. After searching so many places, only the imperial palace was not checked. It was just the huge palace city, where should I go to find it.

The inside of the palace is different from the outside, and the guards are heavily guarded. The imperial guards alone should not be underestimated.

Still need Xiao Lin's help, only he is the most familiar with the palace.

Her perception of this person has always been quite subtle.

When the sky darkened, Qi Guogong came over.

He first said: "The prince's funeral has been set, and he will be sent to the mausoleum in two days. As for the concubine Xian, they will be buried together in the concubine's mausoleum."

"Why so fast? You held back a few days ago, why did you let go today?" Qin Ruoqian felt strange. After all, what the emperor did was so heart-wrenching. Wherever his son died, he wasn't sad at all.

Regardless of the rest, this is the prince he elected.

Duke Qi didn't say much, but said: "Your Majesty has doubts about me, and he never told me about it."

"Where did the suspicion come from, but because of the son?" Qin Ruoqian asked.

Duke Qi nodded: "Today, His Majesty suddenly mentioned the matter on Yunshan Mountain. After I left, the funeral ceremony was arranged. Axian disappeared, and it may have something to do with him. I have already notified the secret line in the palace and paid close attention."

It's not easy for things to happen this step.

Qin Ruoqian had a measure in her heart, and forced a smile: "The new hardworking Lord."

"It's okay, Your Highness will rest early." After Qi Guogong finished speaking, he left the dormitory and came here specially for this matter.

Qin Ruoqian was fascinated by the lights, tonight is the last chance, while Xiao Lin is not around, she should go out of the palace.

****

The headlights outside were bright red.

The emperor's bedroom seemed a bit dim, and he only lit a few lamps in front of the couch, and opened his eyes to see it. The luxurious furnishings were not enough to make people forget the bleak feeling.

It's like being in the Hall of Yama, no matter how good things are, they are all eerie and weird, standing here, the hairs stand on end.

The person who just woke up shivered unknowingly.

What the hell is this place? She was so anxious that she sat in the carriage, and suddenly the car stopped, and she poked her head to look. As soon as the back of her neck hurt, she felt nothing.

Was he beaten to death with a stick?

She hurriedly touched her hand, it was hot.

Touch the quilt under the body, it is soft and slippery.

He pinched his jaw again, it hurt.

She should, seems, probably still be alive.

Fortunately, after he was still alive, he patted his chest, and before he could be happy, he secretly saw a screen in front of him.

There was a big living person standing in front of the screen, she ground her molars and scolded: "Who are you, you don't pretend to be a person in the middle of the night, what the hell are you pretending to be, you are responsible for scaring my sister to death? If I die this time, it will be true." Dead. Are you an idiot?"

"What is stupidity?" The person in front of the screen turned around and approached step by step. The bright yellow dragon robe symbolizes the greatest power here. It still feels scary.

Lu Sixian saw the dragon on his body with sharp eyes, and crawled into the bed in fright, "There is a wrong and a debt, I don't know you well, and I haven't done you any harm. Why are you arresting me?"

"You and your mother's temperament and appearance are too far apart. Not to mention your appearance, as long as you are so slippery and easy-going, she can't learn one ten-thousandth of yours. She is always so dignified."

The emperor approached step by step, and his eyes fell on the girl's bright face. He said that his daughter resembled his mother, but he couldn't see any resemblance between the two.

On the contrary, two people are extreme.

The queen is gentle and kind, and her divination skills are better than those of her predecessors. Her frown and smile back then are unforgettable; however, the girl in front of her is glib and frivolous, and even her eyes are lying and deceiving.

He sighed, Lu Sixian felt that the emperor was so sick, she might look like her father, there was no rule to look like her mother.

She tilted her head pretending to be stupid: "My mother, Yang, looks similar to me, but my temperament is the same as hers, and I am very lively."

Standing in front of the couch, the emperor looked at her hands tightly hugging the quilt, and said calmly, "Your hands are lying to me."

"Hands can't talk, how can you lie to people." Lu Sixian said, while stuffing his hands into the quilt, secretly thinking that the emperor is too shrewd, no wonder the empress can't handle him.

The girl's eyes were erratic, with a little fear, which was a sign of fear.

The emperor stared at her closely, and then said: "This is my dragon bed, you slept so comfortably that you didn't even know you woke up."

"What? This is your bed?" Lu Sixian yelled, got up in a hurry, got off the bed regardless, stared at him closely, the emperor won't take a fancy to her, would he?

God damn it, what kind of plots are these, there is no such thing in the book, she doesn't like men.

still an old man...

She had goosebumps all over her body, touched her arm, and felt that it was really rough.

The emperor looked at her with satisfaction: "Do you like Qianqian?"

"No, no, I like Shen Shen, but I don't like Qian Qian." Lu Sixian hurriedly refused. If the emperor knew that she liked Qin Ruoqian, he would definitely think of something bad.

The girl stood barefoot on the ground, with her back leaning against the screen, looking thin and helpless, but her eyes were lively, as if she was thinking about something.

The emperor corrected his posture and looked at her from beginning to end. Finally, his dark eyes fell on her eyes: "Your eyes are lying."

"No, your daughter is unruly, willful, and domineering. She doesn't allow me to play in brothels, and pulls me to have sex every day. Also, she arbitrarily sent all the maids around me away, and she didn't give her away. Take a concubine. Staring at her disgusting face every day, I feel sick after looking at her for a long time." Lu Sixian's legs trembled in fright, hoping that Qin Ruoqian was not here, otherwise she would have to pluck her skin.

After crackling and complaining, the emperor's expression moved slightly, and he said strangely: "It's better for you to get along with Li, since you are both women anyway, and you can't get married, are you right?"

"Heli, what you said was not what I said. When the time comes, she will make a fuss and chop me with a knife. You will stare at me. That Yu Wenxin is staring at your family every day. It is good that you arrange her two. Hurry up and give her a marriage. Give me back a free body, and besides, my health is not good, maybe it will disappear someday." Lu Sixian leaned against the screen, his vision was too dark, it seemed that the emperor was like Hades, his heart was about to jump out of fright.

The emperor was very satisfied, and said with a smile, "Why don't you enter the palace?"

"Entering the palace? What the hell, I'm not interested in you, I just like..." Lu Sixian covered his mouth in shock, the emperor is really not a good person.

No, the emperor likes the empress, so he won't fall in love with her, there must be something tricky, she pretended to be happy: "Aren't you afraid that the empress will be angry?"

"You don't need to worry about her, just say whether you are willing or not?" the emperor said impatiently.

Lu Sixian's mind quickly turned around, according to the development of the situation, his son had just died, I would not be so quick to want to accept a concubine, even if the queen would nod, the gang of officials would not agree, the people could drown him with their saliva .

She tried to calm down for a while, and looked at the 'King of Yama': "The Queen will chop me up, I am timid and afraid of death."

"As long as there is me..."

"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of Punishment is asking to see you."

The emperor's voice was drowned out by the voice of the servant shouting, Lu Sixian almost went limp, but fortunately Zhang Zheng came, otherwise he didn't know how to continue this terrible topic.

The emperor was very upset, but Zhang Zheng was the head of a department, and he definitely would not come here for no reason. He glanced at the girl and ordered, "Call Zhang Zhengjian Hall."

The inner bedroom is not far from the outer hall, the sound of Zhang Zheng's footsteps landing seems to be heard in his ears, Lu Sixian cautiously poked his head over to listen.

Zhang Zhengsu never had any trivial matters, and he shouted loudly as soon as he entered the room: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple have jointly found out the whole story of the case of Concubine Xian being murdered."

"Concubine Xian was murdered?" The emperor was slightly surprised, while Lu Sixian sat down leaning against the screen, quietly listening to Zhang Zheng's words.

Zhang Zhengdao: "The concubine Xian didn't kill herself, but was smothered to death by the people around her. The Criminal Department arrested and questioned everyone in the palace of the concubine Xian. On the night of the murder, all the people outside the palace of the concubine Xian were killed by the concubine Xian." Withdrew, only two personal servants were left in the palace, and after a short while, the two left the palace, saying that the empress was resting and not allowed to enter, and then the body of the concubine Xian was found hanging under the beam the next day. The evidence investigated and the testimony of the two palace officials."

Lu Sixian couldn't see the figures and expressions of the two of them clearly, but it could be heard from the words that Zhang Zheng checked very carefully.

It is not for nothing that the sound of the case is settled, the corner of her mouth curled up, and she heard something fall to the ground, and the emperor was furious: "It's unreasonable, ridiculous, the eighth prince Xuan entered the palace, go quickly."

Zhang Zheng's expression did not change, he stood in the hall as if relaxed, with a slender figure, the people inside the screen looked at him, and blinked at him, but unfortunately this person is just a log, focusing on his feet for 100 years, without lifting his eyelids For a moment, he didn't notice her existence at all.

The emperor was still cursing on the throne, nothing more than rebellious, absurd, and unforgivable crimes. He stopped cursing for a quarter of an hour and asked Zhang Zheng: "Your work is hard, go to the side hall to rest."

Handling housework, of course, does not require the presence of outsiders.

Zhang Zheng took the order to thank her, when he looked up, he saw a small head next to the screen, nodded at her, his face seemed familiar at times, but he didn't know who it was.

The emperor's palace could not be seen much, he bowed his head and left.

Lu Sixian was so angry that his heart ached, what a fool.

As soon as Zhang Zheng left, he saw the emperor dancing in the square in the hall, moving his left foot, punching with his right hand, there was a crackling sound in the hall, Lu Sixian, who witnessed all this, covered his ears.

The ancients said that when the emperor was angry, millions of corpses floated away, and he hoped that he would not find her tonight.

The palace people on the red rhinoceros outside the hall have long been as usual, and there is no difference because of this. Zhang Zheng, who has arrived at the side hall, has been thinking about who the girl behind the screen is.

The girl blinked at him, she should have recognized him.He used to have a good memory, but he had never interacted with women in the palace, so he should be a princess or concubine at that age.

The concubine strictly abides by the system in the palace and treats herself strictly. It is impossible to wink at the foreign ministers. She should be a princess.

Among Jiji's princesses, the seventh princess has the greatest burden, but she has already left the palace, so it is impossible to stay in the emperor's palace at this time, and her appearance is also different.

Neither concubine nor princess, could it be the emperor's new favorite?

Sitting on the couch, he tried hard to recall the woman's appearance, the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recall.

Who is it?

After trying to think back, I still don't know anything. At this time, the servant shouted that the eighth prince has arrived, and Lu Sixian behind the screen couldn't wait to watch Qin Chengzhuo slump.

As soon as she poked her head out, she saw the emperor kick Qin Chengzhuo fiercely, in that posture - the sword is not old.

After being kicked over, Qin Chengzhuo tried his best to get up, and knelt down straight: "Father, please calm down. I don't know what I did wrong. I will definitely correct myself and not make you angry."

Lu Sixian: 24 Filial piety, good son, pretending to be real, if Zhang Zheng hadn't found out the evidence, she would have almost believed this vicious person.

The emperor was puzzled when he heard this, and smashed all the testimonies in the case, suppressing his anger faintly: "You think you did it without anyone noticing it, if I make someone else the prince again, do you want to smother me to death? You are so cruel, how did I give birth to a son like you. My own mother dared to do it, it is inhumane."

Qin Chengzhuo held the testimony in his hand, and before he finished reading it, he shouted out his innocence: "Father, my minister never did these things. Someone must have deliberately framed this minister. After killing the prince, he came to frame this minister. You have to believe Son."

Believe me.Lu Sixian rolled his eyes, such lines are really boring, there are only a few sentences repeated, such an adult doesn't know how to justify a few more sentences.

The emperor outside the screen had long forgotten that she was such a living person, so he pointed at Qin Chengzhuo angrily: "Who is Zhang Zheng, who will come to frame you? Who can get close to your mother and concubine's palace servants, and who can come in and out of you freely?" If the palace of the concubine mother was not investigated by Zhang Zheng, otherwise I would not believe that you did such a thing, and it is an insult to me that a person like you remains in this world."

Lu Sixian: Nima, what the hell, what do you mean by insulting you?

The emperor pulled out the sword from the wall, swung it up and slashed at Qin Chengzhuo.

Qin Chengzhuo got up and ran out, yelling that he was wronged, and the palace servants on Danxi all begged for mercy and shouted: "The Holy One, calm down, the Holy One, calm down."

Only then did Lu Sixian get up from the ground, taking advantage of this chaotic moment, it's better to run quickly, after all, there is no benefit in the hands of the emperor.

You can't run from the window under the corridor, you can only run from the other side. Open the window, which is a distance of one person's height.

She weighed the height, put her head out first, and then her whole body. The autumn wind blew, making her tremble with cold.

He forced his eyes to jump out and covered his mouth, afraid that he would make a sound.

After jumping down, there was a sound of bare feet stepping on the grass, which made my feet hurt, and hurriedly limped to one side.

This is the emperor's territory, and I don't know how to get to the middle palace. After all, except for the queen, no one dares to rescue her.

Looking for a way out in the dark, walking on the edge of a knife, and found that there was no way out.

After walking a few steps, she found that the lights in the side hall were on, and she woke up suddenly, Zhang Zheng was here.

She climbed up to the window again, but fortunately the window was not closed tightly, and whispered: "Zhang Zheng."

Zhang Zheng, who was sitting on the couch with his eyes closed, was startled suddenly, got up immediately, and walked to the window.

Seeing people coming, Lu Sixian waved his hands excitedly: "Master Zhang, it's me, Lu Sixian."

Hearing the voice of self-reporting the door, Zhang Zheng strode over, seeing the disheveled girl, his eyelids trembled: "Why are you here?"

Unspeakable shock and remorse, no wonder he couldn't remember who it was just now, it turned out to be Lu Sixian who was wearing women's clothes, with familiar features, but he didn't know who it was.

Lu Sixian urgently said: "The emperor has discovered my identity, can you take me out of the palace, I don't want to die."

Zhang Zheng frowned, it was not easy to bring people out of the palace in the dark, and the gate of the palace was strictly forbidden unless someone was willing to help.

Lu Sixian hugged the window and waved at her: "Find Xiao Lin and ask him to take me out."

"Will he help?" Zhang Zheng was unsure. Xiao Lin is the emperor's man, so he wouldn't help at all. He was undoubtedly throwing himself into a trap. He disapproved: "No, it's too dangerous."

With difficulty, Lu Sixian lifted his feet into the air, relying only on the strength of his two hands to support his body, he rolled his eyes at Zhang Zheng: "Pull me up first."

"Okay." Zhang Zheng strode forward and pulled the man up, the voice outside stopped, and the two were sure.

Zhang Zheng waited for her to stand up, and immediately opened the hall door to take a look, the emperor and others went back to the hall, most likely they were about to summon him.

He first said: "I'll go to the queen to save you, and you can't go back to the Duke's mansion. If you want to leave the palace, why don't you follow me to Zhang's mansion."

No one would have thought that the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, who never participated in party disputes, would be an old man of Yunshan, and now he would hide in his mansion, saving a lot of trouble, but what would happen to the Duke of Qi's mansion.

Zhang Zheng drew a picture without a word, and sent it to the central palace.

After going back and forth for half an hour, the empress sent a token, Zhang Zheng glanced at it, then raised his hand and knocked out the palace man who sent the message, and said, "Take off her clothes and change them on."

Although Lu Sixian felt that it was not very kind, he still changed into the clothes of a palace official. At this time, the emperor came to summon him, presumably it was Qin Chengzhuo's matter that had been settled.

Zhang Zheng dragged the palace servants to the window, threw them out, then straightened his clothes, and said to Lu Sixian: "Go out first, wait for me at the gate of the palace with the token, and I will go to see the emperor."

Lu Sixian nodded his head, opened the door of the hall, and said, "I'm going first."

At the critical moment, he ran faster than a rabbit, making Zhang Zheng dumbfounded.

After the person disappeared, he walked lightly into the hall to meet the emperor, missing the eighth prince, his arm was scratched, and the plain robe was stained with blood.

He turned a blind eye, then saluted and stood on one side, the emperor first said: "That's all for now, and you have worked hard."

Zhang Zheng had no accidents, his family ugliness should not be publicized, he was thinking about Lu Sixian's whereabouts, he did not argue with the emperor, he said yes and left the palace.

It was dark, and the servant led the way with a lamp. He looked around, saw no movement, and strode towards the gate of the palace.

His pace, the servant could hardly keep up with his pace, and even asked Mr. Zhang to slow down, slow down.

After leaving the palace gate, he boarded Zhang's carriage, but he still did not see Lu Sixian.

Could it be that he didn't know the way and went to the wrong place?
