When Zhu Youxiao hurriedly returned to Ciqing Palace, what he saw was the same as before. No one was sad or in pain, as if it was just an insignificant cat or dog that died.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao slowed down his pace. He finally realized that his judgment was affected by the knowledge of later generations. Only he knew that this Liu family was the biological mother of the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty in history. But

None of this happened. The woman who died for no reason at this moment was just the lowest level among the concubines in the palace. No one cared about her until she died.

With this thought in his mind, the movements of his feet also changed. He turned slightly and walked towards his residence. Wang Chengen, who was running behind and panting, was confused. At first, he looked anxious and angry.

, made him very worried, for fear that something would happen. Unexpectedly, when he returned to Ciqing Palace, he would instantly feel like a different person, which made him worry in vain.

"I'm still too young!" Zhu Youxiao didn't care what the eunuch behind him thought, he just lamented his age in his heart. At this moment, he was only seven years old, and he couldn't do anything, and no one listened to him.

.

"Everything can only be waited for." Zhu Youxiao sighed secretly in his heart. He was not going to ask about the cause of Liu Shuren's death. It would be useless. The most important thing was to make himself stronger so that he would not die like Liu Shuren.

Not sure.

Judging from his current situation, improving one's own strength is currently the safest and most effective way. And practicing martial arts has another greater benefit, that is health. In this ancient place where medical treatment was a scam, having a good body ratio

Everything is important.

On the way back, he also visited Wang Cairen's palace. Wang Cairen greeted him as warmly as ever, asking questions and being very caring. Zhu Youxiao couldn't stand her enthusiasm, and the two talked for a while.

Then he left in a hurry, but when he left, he didn't notice the worry underneath Wang Cairen's happy face.

When he returned to his bedroom, the medicated bath was ready. After taking off his clothes, he soaked in it. The warm medicinal juice brought him bursts of relief and made him relax all at once.

There was also a palace maid nearby who was constantly filling the mezzanine of the large bathtub with hot water to ensure the temperature of the concoction inside. This process lasted all night until dawn.

He started practicing martial arts when he was five years old. He did this every night. In three years, he almost never touched the bed.

Sitting in the bathtub, he was not doing nothing, but he had to follow a unique breathing method to better absorb the effects of the medicine. This method was very hard, and if he didn't have an adult's mind, he wouldn't be able to persist at all.

In coordination with his breathing, Zhu Youxiao sat quietly and thought about the current Ciqing Palace. Liu Shuren's death made him realize that there was still a huge hidden power in this usually peaceful and peaceful palace.

A dangerous opportunity.

What worries him even more is his mother, Wang Cairen.

According to the accounts of those events in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Cairen died of humiliation and anger after being humiliated and angered by Xili's chosen servants. According to Zhu Youxiao's own interpretation, he was tortured to death by Xili's chosen servants. As for the reason, it is likely that Xili's own son died in infancy.

, and Wang Cairen's son is still alive and is still the eldest son.

Oh, I forgot to mention that Wang Cairen’s second remaining son, Zhu Youxiao’s younger brother, also died in infancy.

In short, in history, Xi Li chose his servants out of jealousy and killed Wang Cairen. But now, Xi Li's son is still alive and well. He is also the grandson of the emperor Wanli, who has a respected status, and the mother is more important than the son.

, Wang Cairen's status is also much higher than that of Xi Li, and she is far from the insignificant concubine in history.

So Zhu Youxiao was just a little worried about his mother. He felt that Wang Cairen had gone too far and was too arrogant and domineering, and something would happen sooner or later.

"I'll have to persuade her better some other time." After thinking it through, he slowly closed his eyes and focused on breathing out his luck.

In the dark night, the lights in Ciqing Palace were brightly lit. Liu Shuren's body had been gathered up and put into a coffin, waiting for burial tomorrow. Liu's etiquette was very simple, she was buried as a palace maid. After all, the prince's status was not good, and more

What's more, she was the lowest concubine beside him.

Mrs. Liu was so miserable that there was no mourning hall, only a coffin containing her, which stood quietly in a small room.

"laugh!"

In the small room, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed, and then a palace lantern was lit. The dim light provided a glimmer of light to the small room.

Two figures appeared under the light. A closer look revealed that one of them was hunched over, and it was Cao Huachun who was being asked to pass by Wang Cairen. The other figure was wearing a gauze palace gown, with a long skirt that stretched to the floor.

The delicate fragrance emanated from her body, looking charming and charming.

This was Xi Li's chosen servant who was only favored by Zhu Changluo.

"The empress knows me very well, oh no, it's the thousand-year-old master. She is as good as the imperial concubine!" Cao Huachun bowed his waist and complimented with a flattering smile on his face.

In this palace, Young Master was originally the title for the Crown Prince, but when Zhu Youxiao left, the title was transferred to him. After all, he was the youngest, wasn't he? As for Zhu Changluo, the maids and eunuchs changed their name to Chitose.

Ye. This is also another title for the prince.

"Hee hee! That's natural." Xi Li enjoyed Cao Huachun's flattery very much. The implicit and explicit meanings of Cao Huachun's words all hinted that he would be as powerful as Concubine Zheng in the future, which just matched Xi Li's already ambitious ambition.

thoughts.

"Eunuch Cao, I don't know why you asked me to come out at such a late hour. You must know that I still have to accompany Mr. Qiantui. After all, I just killed Mr. Liu by mistake, and Mr. Qiantui feels uncomfortable." After laughing,

, Xili asked straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, why don't you take advantage of the situation tonight?" Cao Huachun said with a sinister smile, and made a gesture of cutting his throat. The murderous intention contained in it made Xi Li shiver.

"This is not good." Xili said hesitantly, but her eyes were as bright as morning stars, and she was obviously very moved in her heart.

"Two concubines died in succession, and one of them was the grandson's biological mother. Could it be that..." Xili was still a little worried, fearing that something would happen if things got too big.

"Don't worry, Madam, Your Majesty is not too fond of the Wang family and doesn't pay much attention to her. Otherwise, given her contribution to giving birth to her grandson, how could she still be a talented person until now." Cao Huachun's powerful voice dispelled a lot of Xi Li's worries.

Hesitant, but she was still a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Cao Huachun continued to persuade: "Your Majesty, this is a rare opportunity. The Wang family seems to have noticed that you have failed to seduce Master Qiantui and commit murder. If tonight is over, you must be on guard. And..." Cao Huachun also had a gloomy little look.

Then he said: "Since it is presumed that he is suffering from a serious illness, then one of them is also dead, and both of them are also dead."

Cao Huachun's insidious voice was like a gust of wind, blowing away all the worries and hesitations in Xi Li's heart, making her determined to deal with that bitch Wang tonight.

"Okay, then tonight." Xi Li tightly clenched the silk handkerchief in his hand and replied bitterly.

"Then, Madam, you will lead Mr. Qiansui to Wang Cai tonight, and then the little one will go through the motions and start a conversation, so that Mr. Wang can speak out and stimulate Mr. Qiansui. In this way, great things will happen!" Seeing that Xili agreed, Cao Huachun

Immediately take advantage of the situation and offer advice.

"Okay, let's do it like this. You must answer your words well so that Chitose will enter a state of rage, fear and uncontrollable."

"Slave province."

"Hoo!" The palace lantern was blown out, and the figure disappeared without a trace. Only Mr. Liu, lying quietly in the coffin, witnessed the occurrence of a conspiracy. He was about to welcome his good sister, Wang Cairen.

That night, bursts of crying and pleading came from Wang Cairen's palace. They were Wang's screams. However, Wang's trusted eunuch Cao Huachun and Xi Li's trusted eunuch Li Bao led people to guard the door.

, no one could get in, until the prince read Wang An's news and rushed in.

Unfortunately, when he went in, it was already too late. Wang Cairen was already lying on the ground with weak breathing and bruises all over his body, while the Crown Prince was looking like a madman with red eyes, holding a sandalwood chair high and facing Wang.

, and smashed it down hard.

The click, the sound of the chair breaking took away the last bit of life from the Wang family and broke Wang An's heart.

"It's a disaster!" Wang An closed his eyes in pain and slowly collapsed to the ground. This strong eunuch, this eunuch who had helped Zhu Changluo and saved him countless times, finally collapsed helplessly at this moment.

He was at his wits' end.

As for the dead Wang, no pain could be seen at all. Her eyes were still wide open, still full of nostalgia. At the last moment, she softly uttered a few words, but her breath was so weak that people could not hear them clearly.

.

However, if someone understands lip reading, he will definitely know that these words are:

"Take care, my son. My mother can no longer protect you."

After uttering these words, a heavy sandalwood chair fell on her body, causing her to fall into eternal sleep.

However, the Ciqing Palace is not peaceful at this moment. After all, the Wang family is different from the Liu family. She is the biological mother of her grandson, and Zhu Youxiao is usually generous and approachable, and is often given many rewards. Throughout the Ciqing Palace,

He has a very good reputation.

Therefore, quite a few nostalgic eunuchs and maids wanted to rush to the courtyard at the east end to report the situation. However, these were all beaten to the ground by Cao Huachun and Li Bao's men with sticks, and some even struggled fiercely and were directly killed.

Beat to death. When someone is killed, fewer people will go out to report the news, and those who are beaten will no longer struggle.

Ciqing Palace is very large, and Wang Cairen's mournful voice and these commotions cannot be heard very far. Zhu Youxiao, who is on the far east side, is not aware of any movement. The people serving him are also unaware of it.

.

Only Xili looked at the commotion in front of him with a very ugly face. This stupid woman seemed to have noticed something was wrong.
