The Warm Jade of the Red Chamber

Hearing Eunuch Jiang's words, Zhuang Xi couldn't help thinking that the leader of the guards guarding the west gate of the palace tonight was held in the hands of the loyal prince Zhuang Sheng. All the assassins were put in.However, now that most of the night has passed, the security in the palace has been strengthened a lot as expected, but there is no news of commotion, and the order seems to be restoring.

Zhuang Xi has his own news channel. In the past few years, relying on Emperor Chunyou's trust in him, he has recruited several people in the palace, such as Eunuch Jiang, and Eunuch Gu who is beside the Supreme Emperor.

Now that such things happen in the palace, they must be strictly controlled. It is difficult to convey the news of Eunuch Gu. We can only rely on the code words in the past to spread a few words, the general meaning , Zhongshan was captured, Emperor Chunyou was seriously injured, and Zhuang Ye's men and horses haunted the palace.

Zhuang Ye has always been the person Zhuang Sheng and Zhuang Xi fear the most, and has the most eyes on Zhuang Ye. Zhuang Ye's being trapped in the Navy can be said to be the result of many efforts.

Zhuang Sheng naturally hoped that Zhuang Ye would die at sea like that, but Zhuang Xi was not so naive. Qianxiang Kingdom is just a small place, although their military strength is basically at sea, they are still not as good as the Dajing Dynasty It is only a matter of time before Qianxiang Kingdom is defeated.

This is also the difference between Zhuang Xi and Zhuang Sheng. Although he desperately wants to fight for the supreme position, he will not betray the interests of his country.Therefore, he would not intentionally sell the information to Qian Xiangguo so that Zhuang Ye would die at sea, but he would set up an ambush on Zhuang Ye's way back to Beijing to make him die on his way back.Anyway, with Zhuang Sheng leading the charge, he was ready to replace the dead ghost. As long as he tidied up carefully, who would doubt him who has always been indifferent to fame and wealth and devoted himself to running errands for Emperor Chunyou?

Zhuang Xi was absolutely certain that Zhuang Ye was trapped at sea, so if Zhuang Ye's men and horses appeared in the palace, who could command them, Zhuang Xi would suspect Zhuang Yu.It's just that the news that Zhuang Yu was trapped in the epidemic area has been confirmed repeatedly, and the suspicion in Zhuang Xi's heart was finally dispelled after hearing the news brought back by Eunuch Jiang.

"It seems that the emperor has long been on guard against loyalty. I am afraid that this trap has been set up long before Cheng Ke and Zhuang Yu left Beijing." Zhuang Xi walked to the window, took a look and gradually turned pale. "If so, this loophole... can be exploited."

Eunuch Jiang also agreed with Zhuang Xi's statement, saying: "The slave is in Lin's mansion, and the people around the Lin family should be the ones who appeared when he investigated the ancient building last time. It seems that Prince Chengke and his son made excellent arrangements before leaving. That's right." Eunuch Jiang said, he couldn't help feeling a little wary in his heart, if so, would Prince Zhongmin really have a chance of winning?

In Zhuang Xi's always calm and indifferent eyes, finally there was ambition that couldn't be hidden, and he snorted and said, "So what if he is right? This opportunity is already the best. There will be no more, how can I... give up? If I win the bet, I will take over the power of the world, wipe out all the moths in the country, and restore the country's governance; if I lose the bet..."

Eunuch Jiang also knew that he got on Zhuang Xi's boat after all, and he couldn't get off. Now he had to follow Zhuang Xi all the way to the dark.

Eunuch Jiang stated: "The slave is willing to be the vanguard for the prince!"

Zhuang Xi pondered for a while, and said: "You go to the Minjing County Prince's Mansion immediately, and let him be the king's vanguard officer."

After finishing speaking, Zhuang Ye confessed to Eunuch Jiang again.

Zhuang Xi regarded him as a vanguard official, and the one who planned to make full use of him was none other than Emperor Chunyou's eldest son, Prince Minjing Zhuang Wei.

In the past few years, Zhuang Yan, the eldest son of the middle palace, has gradually grown up, and now he is able to handle consular affairs on his own.

Especially in the past few years, Emperor Chunyou loved and respected the queen more and more, and loved and valued Zhuang Yan very much. Zhuang Wei became more and more anxious, and couldn't help but keep making small moves secretly.That's why he cared so much about the news about Zhuang Ye and his son, and hoped that they would die outside and not come back to increase Zhuang Yan's bargaining chip.

However, no matter how many followers he had, Emperor Chunyou had to be in power so that he would have time to plan slowly. If Emperor Chunyou died like this and the queen sat firmly in the middle palace, he would not be able to compete with Zhuang Yan in terms of status.

Therefore, when Eunuch Jiang said that something happened in the palace and Emperor Chunyou was seriously injured and might die, Zhuang Wei was really anxious.So he was about to enter the palace to find out, but was stopped by Eunuch Jiang.

Under the coaxing of Eunuch Jiang, Zhuang Wei learned the "truth". It turned out that his good brother Zhuang Yan, together with the queen, wanted to seize the throne when Emperor Chunyou was seriously injured.Zhuang Wei was not so easy to be deceived, at least he had to pass it through his head when he got the news, but he was too impatient, as long as he thought that if Emperor Chunyou really died and Zhuang Yan ascended the throne, he would have no way to calm down.

No one noticed that Eunuch Jiang was carrying an imperceptible fragrance in his purse, which made Zhuang Wei more and more unable to calm down and think.

So at the instigation of Eunuch Jiang, Zhuang Wei started to act.

The news in the palace was tightly sealed, and no one outside the palace got the news, even the concubines, princes and princesses in the palace were all ordered to stay in their own palace and not allowed to leave at will.From this we can see how well prepared Emperor Chunyou and Zhuang Ye were.

On the contrary, Qiu Qingyu was personally invited into the palace by Eunuch Chen, the great eunuch next to Emperor Chunyou. Emperor Chunyou was indeed injured, and even poisoned.

Emperor Chunyou was lying weakly on the dragon bed. Apart from Qiu Qingyu and the imperial doctors, the only people around him were the Supreme Emperor, Empress and Zhuang Yan.

The Supreme Emperor looked at Emperor Chunyou with worry and remorse, and angrily reprimanded the imperial doctors, telling them to do their best.

The Supreme Emperor is very remorseful at this moment, if he hadn't been soft-hearted at the beginning, he was also angry at Emperor Chunyou and Zhuang Ye's concealment from him, and after Concubine Zhengui arrived, she couldn't stop crying and forbade Emperor Chunyou to send Zhuang Sheng to the dungeon. If he were to be taken back to the palace for careful interrogation, Zhuang Sheng would not be able to take advantage of his loopholes and cause Emperor Chunyou to be seriously injured in the end.

The Supreme Emperor is getting old, and he doesn't want to kill another son. What's more, what Zhuang Sheng did this time did not cause any serious consequences. In addition, Concubine Zhen Gui is a woman who is dozens of years old, and she has no image of crying. It is bitter to say that Zhuang Sheng took the risk because he was forced to the point of no return by Emperor Chunyou and Zhuang Ye.The Supreme Emperor originally felt that Emperor Chunyou's concealment from him was a violation of his authority. When Dowager Zhengui said this, the Supreme Emperor sometimes wanted to do the opposite out of compassion, and at other times because of his dissatisfaction with Emperor Chunyou, he called out Zhuang Sheng took advantage of the loophole.

When Concubine Zhengui threw herself on Zhuang Sheng and cried bitterly, she quietly loosened the knot that bound Zhuang Sheng. The moment Zhuang Sheng approached the Supreme Emperor, he broke free from the rope, pulled off the hairpin on the top of his hair and pointed it at him. The throat of the Supreme Emperor hijacked the Supreme Emperor.

The hairpin in Zhuang Sheng's hand was actually a spike with poison on it.

When Zhuang Sheng took the Emperor Tai as a hostage and asked Emperor Chunyou to come to him, Emperor Chunyou did so without hesitation, and in the process of scuffling with Zhuang Sheng later, he was stabbed by Zhuang Sheng's spikes, injured and Poisoned.

As for Zhuang Sheng and Concubine Zhen Gui, in the midst of the Emperor's fury, the former was beaten to death on the spot, and the latter was also sent to the cold palace to be dealt with later.

The Taishanghuang felt very remorseful in his heart, and felt that his dissatisfaction and doubts towards Emperor Chunyou were simply too much.

But fortunately, Qiu Qingyu still had the pills left by Mr. Bai in her hands. It is not difficult to cure Emperor Chunyou's poison, as long as she takes good care of her afterwards.

Emperor Chunyou's injury gradually stabilized, and he came to his senses. Finally, the sky gradually dawned.

Zhuang Yu, who turned into an ordinary guard, stood outside the gate of Chengqi Palace, looking at the rising sun in the east, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and murmured: "The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop..."

At this time, Zhuang Wei in armor came outside the palace gate with a group of personal soldiers.Without a doubt, he was stopped outside the palace gate.

Although Zhuang Wei was very worried about Emperor Chunyou's consolation, and because of the incense in Eunuch Jiang's purse, his emotions had been uncontrollably agitated, and his face was even flushed abnormally, but he was not so out of his mind that People broke into the palace.

At this moment, Zhuang Xi and Zhuang Zhen hurried to the outside of the palace gate, saw Zhuang Wei's posture, and hurried forward.

Zhuang Xi couldn't help shouting and asked: "What are you going to do? Breaking into the palace wearing armor is a felony!"

Seeing Zhuang Xi and Zhuang Zhen, Zhuang Wei rode forward and said in a loud voice: "Uncle Wu Huang, Eunuch Jiang, who is beside Emperor Father, reported to my mansion that...someone is trying to harm Emperor Father and try to seize the throne, nephew My son is going to enter the palace to escort him, and I also ask Uncle Wuhuang to be a witness for my nephew..." Zhuang Wei said, with a suppressed excitement in his tone.His uncle, unlike Zhuang Ye who favored Zhuang Yan, was inclined to himself, so Zhuang Wei sent someone to pass the news to him. If there is really any change in the palace, Zhuang Xi can also help him. Well, in this way, Zhuang Ye will be beyond his reach. As long as he ascends the throne, he will give Zhuang Xi's family the honor of three kings. Are you afraid that Zhuang Xi's family will not be devoted to him?

"Nonsense!" Zhuang Xi couldn't help scolding, "The palace is heavily guarded, who will harm the emperor? I'm afraid it's misunderstood that you entered the palace like this. You are the one who wants to force the palace to seize the throne. Hurry up and pack it up, and then go to the palace to plead guilty with the emperor."

While the two were arguing, the emperor's will was conveyed to the gate of the palace, and Zhuang Wei was asked to enter the palace to meet him.

At this time, Zhuang Wei was still wondering if someone had falsely passed on the Supreme Emperor's will, trying to trick him into entering the palace to kill him, and insisted on bringing his own soldiers into the palace.

Zhuang Xi couldn't help frowning, Zhuang Wei may not be a dragon and phoenix person, but he is not so stupid. He asked Eunuch Jiang to light a little incense that would make people manic, but now it seems that this dose of medicine I'm afraid it was too much, so that Zhuang Wei became confused. In this way, I'm afraid that the drug administration will be noticed. You know, Qiu Qingyu's medical skills are not simple.

But now, there is no turning back, so he can only bite the bullet. Anyway, even if he fails in the end, the scapegoat is ready-made, and he can still plan slowly.It's just that with the prolongation of Emperor Chunyou's reign and the aging of the Supreme Emperor, Emperor Chunyou's imperial power is becoming more and more difficult to shake. If he fails this time, it may be difficult to have another chance.

Finally, under Zhuang Xi's persuasion, Zhuang Wei was finally persuaded, and he and Zhuang Zhen accompanied Zhuang Wei to meet the Supreme Emperor, and left all the soldiers brought by Zhuang Wei outside the palace gate. Two personal eunuchs entered the palace gate.

According to the rules of the Dajing Dynasty, the prince has personal guards, but they cannot be brought into the harem. Therefore, princes and princesses are more willing to have a few eunuchs with high martial arts skills by their side.

The two eunuchs beside Zhuang Wei, one Shi Chuang and the other Shi Mi, were trained by him since he was a child, and their martial arts are absolutely outstanding.

All Zhuang Wei's worries were not realized, and he met the Supreme Emperor outside the gate of Chengqi Palace smoothly.

Because the emperor was in a bad mood, he walked out of the gate of the palace to look at the rising sun, so as to make himself feel more relaxed, so he met Zhuang Wei and others outside the gate of the palace.The Supreme Emperor felt that the news had been blocked up to this point, but Zhuang Wei could still get the news. He even tried to lead his own soldiers into the palace wearing armor. It would be appropriate to see Zhuang Wei outside the palace gate.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that Zhuang Wei didn't bring many personal soldiers, and later left everyone outside the palace gate, and only brought two young eunuchs into the palace, the Supreme Emperor might have arrested him long ago.Emperor Chunyou was injured so badly because of the carelessness of the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor was unwilling to make such a mistake again.

Seeing the Supreme Emperor standing in front of him peacefully, Zhuang Wei looked at him with inexplicable scrutiny, but there was no sadness in his eyes. Zhuang Wei suddenly felt bad, maybe he was deceived.

Fortunately, he didn't cause any big trouble. Although entering the palace in armor would be criticized by others, as long as he made it clear that he was deceived by Eunuch Jiang and purely cared about, he would be chaotic. It's not impossible to turn over again.

Zhuang Wei knelt down to salute, and asked eagerly, "Grandfather, how is Father? Eunuch Jiang, who is next to Father, told his son that Father was injured, and son rushed to rescue him, but he was watching outside the door. Going to the palace to guard as before, guessing whether the chaos has calmed down, so he left all the guards and soldiers outside the palace. Now seeing that the emperor's grandfather is safe, the father must be a lucky man, and the minister can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Please punish the emperor." Many people saw that he entered the palace in armor, so it is useless to argue, it would be better to accept the punishment readily.

Zhuang Wei thought that through these words, he could explain his behavior and reduce his guilt. As for the words that he suspected that the queen and Zhuang Yan were looking for an opportunity to seize the throne, it was better not to say it.

Zhuang Wei thought about how to get out, and also thought about thoroughly investigating Eunuch Jiang to see who was instigating him.

However, what happened next caught him off guard.

I saw Shi Chuang and Shi Mi behind him suddenly attacking and attacking the Supreme Emperor.

It took Zhuang Wei a beat to realize what had happened, and his brain finally came to his senses. When he yelled "No", it was too late to stop him, and Zhuang Wei felt that the sky was about to collapse.

It was Zhuang Xi and Zhuang Zhen who reacted quickly, yelling "Father, be careful" and "Grandpa, be careful" and rushed forward respectively.

Zhuang Xi immediately blocked the way of the Supreme Emperor, while Zhuang Zhen attacked Shi Chuang and Shi Mi.

Zhuang Xi is good at martial arts, but he is not very good, at most he can only fight with one person, while the other turns his palm into claws and grabs the Supreme Emperor, and because Zhuang Xi stands in front of the Supreme Emperor, the injured person is probably Zhuang Xi.

It was too late, but it was just a blink of an eye. Before Zhuang Wei even had time to react, a severed arm fell to the ground.

Zhuang Xi was already prepared to be injured, but he watched helplessly as a cold knife flashed by, and the arm that hit him was cut off and fell to the ground.

In Zhuang Xi's heart, there was an indescribable bitterness for a moment. He knew that the Supreme Emperor must be heavily guarded, and he didn't expect Shi Chuang and Shi Mi to hurt the Supreme Emperor. He just wanted to get hurt because of saving the Supreme Emperor. Unfortunately, what he didn't expect was that beside the Supreme Emperor, there was such a master who could defuse such an attack in a flash.

Zhuang Zhen was also taken aback for a moment, and the movements of his hands could not help but slow down.

Seeing that Shi Chuang's arm was broken, Shi Mi put down the fighting Zhuang Zhen and threw himself on the guard holding the knife viciously.

But at this time, the guards guarding the surroundings also reacted, and they all broke out in a cold sweat. If they don't make amends and take down the two assassins, they will have nothing to eat.

The Supreme Emperor also reflected at this time, and said with a calm face: "Catch the living."

When Zhuang Wei saw the Supreme Emperor gave him a cold look, his heart felt like falling into an ice cave, and his feverish mind finally cooled down.

Zhuang Wei never imagined that the meticulously trained subordinates would make him bear such a big scapegoat in this way. He jumped up to save him, but before he could get up, everything was settled. He knelt down and kowtowed fiercely to the Supreme Emperor: "Grandpa, my grandson has been wronged. My grandson has absolutely no intention of being disobedient. They... they must have been bought by someone to harm my grandson..." This The next is really panic.

"Put King Minjing..."

Zhuang Yu, who was dressed as an ordinary guard, quietly tugged on the sleeve of the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor paused, and then said: "I will be locked up in Lanfu Palace and will be re-examined later."

Zhuang Wei didn't say anything more, and kowtowed fiercely to the Supreme Emperor: "Grandson has absolutely no rebellious heart, Grandpa Huang is aware of it." When he heard that he was imprisoned in Lanfu Palace, he knew that things had turned around, and he felt at ease.

Zhuang Wei was taken away, the Supreme Emperor turned his eyes to Zhuang Xi, and his eyes softened. Within a day, he was rescued by two sons regardless of his own life. The heavenly family has no family?

"Fifth, follow me to see the emperor. He should wake up too. Except for Eleventh, he relies on you the most. Now Eleventh is not in Beijing, and the emperor himself is seriously injured. This matter in the court , it will be managed by you.”

Zhuang Xi still remained unfazed by favor or humiliation, and promised: "I would like to obey my father's orders."

The Supreme Emperor nodded in satisfaction. This son really has an indifferent temperament.

Zhuang Zhen followed Taishanghuang and Zhuang Xi and walked towards the Chengqi Palace. After all, Zhuang Xi was not as calm as Zhuang Xi, and turned his head several times to look at the guard who cut off Shi Chuang's arm in the blink of an eye and rescued the Taishanghuang. The man smiled at him honestly, Zhuang Zhen couldn't help turning dark.

After the Supreme Emperor led Zhuang Xi and his son into the gate of Chengqi Palace, the bodyguard played by Zhuang Yu disappeared into the side hall in a flash.

In the side hall, there were already people guarding him. Judging by his face, he looked exactly like the person Zhuang Yu was pretending to be.

Zhuang Yu took off the human skin mask on his face, put another one on, and muttered: "It's a hot day, it's not breathable, it's really uncomfortable." While speaking, he changed into another suit Eunuch clothes, became a humble little eunuch.

The person who looked the same as the person played by Zhuang Yu smiled honestly, quietly slipped out of the side hall, and returned to the guards outside the hall door.

※※※

At this moment, Emperor Chunyou had already woken up, but he was still very weak. When he saw the Supreme Emperor bringing Zhuang Xi over, his eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled weakly, and said, "Why is Fifth Brother here?"

Zhuang Xi replied: "The younger brother followed...Wei'er into the palace. He didn't know who was bewitched. He thought the emperor was in danger, so he hurried to rescue him. The younger brother didn't believe it, so he wanted to stop it." He, did not expect... the emperor really had an accident..."

Emperor Chunyou's expression froze, and he said, "Who passed this news on to him? Let me investigate thoroughly...cough cough..."

The Supreme Emperor said dissatisfiedly: "It's alright, alright, your father is still not confused, leave this matter to me to investigate, and you give me a safe and secure life."

Emperor Chunyou smiled wryly: "What the father said is true, but when the son thinks that the third brother is like this, and my son is also... this feels very sad..."

The Supreme Emperor also sighed for a while, the situation of the two of them was really similar, at this moment, the distance between them seemed to be shortened again.

Shaking his head, he said: "It's okay, it will be fine after a few days. It's just that during this time, I'm afraid you have to be busy."

Seeing their father's loving and filial appearance, Zhuang Xi felt a twinge of pain in his heart, so he quickly lowered his eyes and remained silent.

When the palaces received the news, the concubines, princes, and princesses all rushed over, and Emperor Chunyou began to fall into a deep sleep again. Because he needed to rest, the Supreme Emperor only left the empress to accompany Emperor Chunyou, and sent everyone else out.

Under the service of a young eunuch, the Supreme Emperor also sat on his imperial chariot and went back to rest in his own palace. By the way, he made arrangements to find out everything that happened this time.

The Supreme Emperor thought about what the little eunuch said just now when he was supporting him: "Brother Wei has a special fragrance, which is very weak, but it can still make grandson feel uncomfortable."

The Supreme Emperor knew that the little eunuch was played by Zhuang Yu, so naturally he didn't doubt his words. Zhuang Yu also received Mr. Bai's favor back then, and since then he has been very sensitive to poisonous things, even if they are colorless and odorless, they can still be called him. It doesn't make sense to notice the clues, it seems to be an instinct of his.

Before Qiu Qingyu left the palace, she asked the Supreme Emperor to send someone to stop her and rushed to Lanfu Palace to show Zhuang Wei.

Sitting in the main hall of Lanfu Palace, the Supreme Emperor looked at Qiu Qingyu who had already seen Zhuang Wei, and asked, "How is it?"

Qiu Qingyu's face was a little solemn, and said: "It's Huohexiang, a spice that can make people manic. The first prince has a large dose, and it is naturally difficult to control emotions. However, if I come a little later, this After the fragrance is gone, it is really a ghost."

The overlord's face turned ugly. From this point of view, Zhuang Wei's actions were not all out of his original intention. That is to say, behind this, there are still a pair of black hands pushing everything.The Taishanghuang burst into anger, and this kind of feeling of being played by others made the Taishanghuang who was used to being superior very annoyed, and vowed not to give up until he thoroughly investigated the matter.

"Stay well, don't think about anything else." After leaving these words, the Supreme Emperor left.

Zhuang Wei sent the Supreme Emperor away on his knees, knowing that most of his crisis was over.But what he couldn't figure out was why Qiu Qingyu would speak up for him, as long as she pretended that the scent had been emitted and she couldn't detect it, who would expose her?In that case, it would be difficult for him, Zhuang Yan's biggest opponent, to stand up.

From this point of view, although Qiu Qingyu is the princess of Chengke, she is still an extremely fair person.

If Zhuang Wei knew that it was Zhuang Yu who discovered the suspicion of being poisoned by the medicine and told the Supreme Emperor, he might not be so relieved so quickly.

Of course, Zhuang Yu didn't come out of pure kindness.It's not easy for them to set up this game. The one they want to catch is definitely not Zhuang Wei, a small fish. Zhuang Wei has been jumping around a lot, but he never imagined that Zhuang Yan and Zhuang Yu never regarded him as an opponent at all. His existence was an excellent shield for Zhuang Yan, so naturally he couldn't just let him fall down easily.

What's more, helping Zhuang Wei out of trouble in front of the Supreme Emperor can also impress the Supreme Emperor as a brother and friend, and convince the Supreme Emperor that he and Zhuang Yan will never use dark means to deal with Zhuang Wei. However, if something really happened in the future, the Supreme Emperor would have a tendency to feel that Zhuang Wei didn't know what was good and what was wrong.

※※※

The Emperor Taishang wanted to thoroughly investigate the truth, while Zhuang Yu pretended to be a little eunuch to serve Emperor Chunyou all day long, carefully inspecting the things he entered or touched, so as not to let people take advantage of the loopholes and poison him.

Not to mention, it really made him realize that something was wrong. It was actually the maids in the Queen's Palace and the eunuchs around Zhuang Yan who had the problem.

Zhuang Yu threw the snacks from the queen and the books Zhuang Yu sent to Emperor Chunyou to relieve his boredom, and buried them in the guards.

"Your Majesty, this poison is extremely rare. If it weren't for my nephew, no one else would be able to explain why." The little eunuch played by Zhuang Yu waited for Emperor Chunyou to wake up at night, and slept on the footstep beside Emperor Chunyou's bed. .Anyway, there were few people coming at night, so Zhuang Yu took off his mask to let in some air, and crossed his legs to chat with Emperor Chunyou.

Emperor Chunyou's injury was actually not that serious, and it was really boring to lie down for the past two days. He slept a lot during the day, and he was happy to listen to Zhuang Yu's talk at night.In fact, Emperor Chunyou was helpless. Although Zhuang Yan had gotten closer to him in the past few years, he kept to his duty as a son of man, which was a bit rigid. It was better for Zhuang Yu to be casual. It was a joke, which made the emperor Chunyou feel novel and happy, and finally understood why Zhuang Ye often made the emperor jump around when he was a child, but still let the emperor love him.

"This poisoned thing can't be thrown away casually, but it can't be soaked in water or set on fire, otherwise it will be scattered into the air, making it impossible to guard against." Zhuang Yu said, but he didn't know where to touch it. A fruit came out, and he put it in his mouth and bit it, "This thing comes from a small tribe in the Yunjian Mountain Range. It is very rare. Except for my nephew and my concubine, no one will recognize it. But if it is the queen If your empress and Brother Yan's people harmed you, the emperor, your nephew and the concubine mother, the credibility of this will be greatly reduced, and some people may even think that the concubine mother provided the poison."

"Kacha" bit down again: "Poison, this strategy is really poisonous."

Hearing the sound of Zhuang Yu biting the fruit, Emperor Chunyou felt a little toothache, and said, "Wei'er and Yan'er, who are most likely to succeed to the throne, will be disqualified at that time, and any prince he supports to succeed to the throne will become the regent. I was also careless. I haven't discovered his true face in the past few years, and I have trusted him so much and given him so many rights. If I hadn't accidentally noticed something wrong with Eunuch Jiang, I still think he is The talent of the humerus."

"My nephew thinks that Uncle Wu may not only want to be the regent, otherwise... why would he frame brother Wei?" Wouldn't it be good to directly support Zhuang Wei to become the regent?As Zhuang Yu said, after eating one fruit, he touched another one and continued to eat it.

Emperor Chunyou heard the crisp gnawing sound, his teeth hurt even more, he lifted his foot and kicked Zhuang Yu, and said, "Can you stop gnawing? An eunuch came in tomorrow to pack things, thinking it was my gnawing." Woolen cloth."

However, Zhuang Yu took out another fruit and handed it to Emperor Chunyou: "Your Majesty, it's quite sweet, why don't you... have a taste?"

Emperor Chunyou glared at this annoying boy, but saw him laughing wickedly, snatched the fruit angrily, and took a hard bite.

After eating the fruit, Emperor Chunyou said leisurely: "I hope that the emperor can find out the truth as soon as possible."

"This matter, it's useless for you to check the emperor, and it's useless for me to check it. I can only let the emperor check it out by himself, so as not to be provoked by someone in the future, saying that we framed it. Otherwise, I would have given away all the evidence. The regiment was sent to the emperor's grandfather." And he messed up the scene where Zhuang Xi was injured in order to save him, so that the Taishanghuang must be more inclined to Emperor Chunyou than the real injured Emperor Chunyou.Of course, these words must be rotten in the heart, and absolutely cannot be said.

Emperor Chunyou also sighed in his heart, the royal family, even if they have family ties, they can't get rid of each other's calculations. This time the rescue, the injury is real, and the danger is also real. It is only because of the existence of Qiu Qingyu that it is not so dangerous That's all, so, even if I took advantage of the injury, it is excusable, right?

※※※

It is impossible to completely hide the news of Emperor Chunyou's injury. Following the news that Zhuang Sheng was expelled from the clan after his death, Concubine Zhengui was bestowed to death, the Supreme Emperor was regent, and Minjing County Wang Zhuangwei was grounded. There was a lot of excitement, and everyone dared not take a breath, for fear that they would accidentally provoke something that should not be provoked and end up in a bad end.Since ancient times, what coups, mutinies, forced palaces, etc., have not been bloody?Like this time, it can almost be called silent, which is really rare.

Daiyu was at home, and received the news that Emperor Chunyou had been injured the next day. Thinking of what Eunuch Jiang said, her legs went limp. Could it be that what Eunuch Jiang said was true?Daiyu was so anxious that she immediately took the few people left by Eunuch Jiang into the palace to seek proof.

Fortunately, Qiu Qingyu sent a confidant to deliver a message, and learned that Zhuang Yu was safe in the palace, but he could not go home for the time being, which made Daiyu's heart drop again.The few people left by Eunuch Jiang were also taken away by someone from the palace.

Daiyu thought over and over again, and sent someone to bring clothes, medicines, etc., to Hunan, pretending to send things to Zhuang Yu.

No matter how commendable Zhuang Yu's return to the palace was to arrange something, he had to come back from the "disaster area and epidemic area" in the end, so as to avoid trouble.

This also confirms the news that Zhuang Yu never returned to Beijing. With the news that the navy led by Zhuang Ye defeated Qianxiang Kingdom's navy and even invaded Qianxiang Kingdom, Prince Chengke's mansion completely recovered from this attack. It was picked out during the incident, whether it belonged to Zhuang Sheng's conspiracy or Emperor Chunyou's suppression, it had nothing to do with Prince Chengke's mansion.This is the best result, otherwise someone should impeach Prince Cheng Ke's house, the power is too heavy - although their current momentum is not light at all.

Daiyu also followed Qiu Qingyu into the palace to visit Emperor Chunyou. These days, the royal family and courtiers all visited the palace one after another, but they didn't see Tianyan.

Daiyu got Qiu Qingyu's favor, met Emperor Chunyou and the queen, and got the precious medicinal materials from the queen, asking her to take it back to Lin's mansion for Jia Min to use.

Daiyu was very grateful, but no matter how quietly she looked at him, she couldn't see where Zhuang Yu was hiding, so she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and worried.

Emperor Chunyou sent Qiu Qingyu and Daiyu out with a little eunuch, but Daiyu was out of her mind and almost tripped over the threshold of the main hall. The little eunuch hurriedly supported her and said, "Be careful, princess!"

Daiyu stood firm, but was surprised and angrily noticed that the little eunuch's fingers were gently sketching on her palm, and stared angrily at her, but saw a strange face with familiar heart-pounding eyes, Daiyu He lost his voice for a while.

The little eunuch blinked at Daiyu at an angle that no one noticed, then lowered his head, and said solemnly: "My slave respectfully sends off Princess Chengke and Princess Consort Chengke."

Daiyu was stupidly led out of the palace gate by Qiu Qingyu's hand, and she didn't realize it until she got into the carriage, not only lowered her voice and said angrily: "Brother Yu is going too far!" Seeing her looking for him, she didn't give up. He even took the opportunity to tease her, she was really angry.

Qiu Qingyu scratched her nose amusedly, and said, "When he comes back, Concubine Mu will help you clean him up."

Daiyu nodded fiercely, but a relaxed smile could not help but overflow from the corner of her mouth.

Because of Zhuang Yu's relationship, Daiyu couldn't help being concerned about the news from the palace, but it was difficult to inquire about the news of the little eunuch next to Emperor Chunyou, and she didn't dare to inquire, for fear of revealing her secrets.

However, after the Supreme Emperor became regent, different news came out every day.

The Supreme Emperor decided to do something for his poor and injured emperor's son. Originally, he was thinking of the Zhen family's affection. He knew that the Zhen family had caused little trouble to Emperor Chunyou in the past few years, but he hinted left and right, hoping Emperor Chunyou should be more lenient to the Zhen family, otherwise, no matter how well Zhen Yingjia did, it would be impossible for her to be promoted to a half-rank official despite the emperor's dislike.

Now, the evidence that the Zhen family helped Zhuang Sheng in plotting against him is convincing—Zhen Yingxia is really not a person who knows how to wipe his ass, and even the money that Zhuang Sheng used to bribe the emperor's wife of Qianxiang Kingdom was provided by the Zhen family. The accusations of foreign countries——Although the Supreme Emperor was annoyed that Zhuang Sheng betrayed the interests of the Dajing Dynasty for his own selfishness, he didn't want to put such a shameful charge on his son, let alone this son was dead, so he simply thought about it. Erdi, sneaked out Zhen Jiati as a scapegoat, and sentenced everyone to be executed.

The Supreme Emperor is a good-faced and self-proclaimed benevolent, and Emperor Chunyou has always been a benevolent monarch, so he only killed the Zhen family and did not implicate the other nine families.

The headquarters of the Zhen family was in Jinling, and the Supreme Emperor ordered the execution on the spot, so they were not escorted back to Beijing.But Zhen Yingjia's room was in Beijing, and they were all sent to the execution ground for disposal soon.

The Supreme Emperor seemed to use this swift and swift judgment to show that his treasured sword was not old.
