Chu Yichen's smile did not change, "Grandma Huang, you will make your grandson happy."
"oh?"
"The person that Grandma Huang loves the most is Su Xing'er. Grandma Huang probably doesn't want her to suffer."
"..."
The Queen Mother's face changed slightly, "What did you do to Xing'er?"
"Nothing." Chu Yichen smiled, "I just asked Eunuch Sun from the East Palace to invite Su Xing'er into the palace on the grounds that the former princess was unwell. Calculating the time, it's almost time for my cousin to enter the palace."
The Queen Mother squeezed the prayer beads in her hand, "What do you want to do with Xing'er?"
"Then it all depends on the royal grandmother."
Chu Yichen said with a smile, "Prince Jing conspired to rebel. Rebellion is a serious crime against the nine clans. Su Xing'er is Princess Jing, and she will be the first to die. But... Su Xing'er is the granddaughter of the emperor's grandmother after all. As long as the emperor
If grandma is willing, Su Xing'er doesn't need to be Princess Jing, and she can just be Princess Anle. In that case, Su Xing'er will be her grandson's biological cousin, and her grandson will naturally not do anything to her."
"..."
The Queen Mother sneered and said, "If the nine clans are to be punished, no one in the entire royal family can escape. As Chu Mohan's biological brother, you will bear the brunt of the execution."
Chu Yichen was impatient to argue with the Queen Mother here.
He pursed his lips and said, "The Imperial Grandmother will tell you how to make a decision."
"You are right, Xing'er is indeed the weakness of the Ai family." The Queen Mother stared at him, "But the Ai family will not make a decision until they see with their own eyes that Xing'er is safe and sound."
"OK!"
Chu Yichen smiled and nodded happily, "At this hour, it's time for my cousin to enter the palace. My grandson is here and will wait with the imperial grandmother for a while."
He was a little tired from standing, so he shouted, "Someone, bring me a soft chair."
How dare the palace maid disobey him?
He quickly moved a soft chair and placed it next to the charcoal basin. Chu Yichen sat down on the recliner without caring about the Queen Mother's expression.
Waited for a while.
There has been no movement outside.
Chu Yichen frowned and called the guards outside, "Go outside the palace and see why no one has arrived yet. Bring Princess Anle to Cining Palace safely."
"yes."
Waited for another two quarters of an hour.
The personal guards did not come back, but the guards did. Covered in blood, they entered Cining Palace and knelt beside King Jiang, "Your Majesty, I have failed to fulfill your trust."
"..."
Chu Yichen's heart sank, and he sat up straight, "Didn't the Crown Princess bring her back?"
"yes."
Chu Yichen was furious, "Trash! There are only a few people around Shu Wanyi, you brought so many people, and you can't even catch a woman!"
"It's Princess Jing."
"What?"
Wei Du gritted his teeth and said, "My subordinates were about to succeed, but Princess Jing suddenly brought people to kill her and rescued the Crown Princess."
"..."
Chu Yichen couldn't sit still and said sternly, "Where are the people I sent to pick up Su Xing'er?"
"All dead."
"You are so powerful in martial arts that you can actually let Su Xing'er take Shu Wanyi away from under your nose?"
Weidu gritted his teeth and said, "Princess Jing has many masters around her. Her subordinates originally fought with her people to no avail, but Princess Jing...she suddenly summoned the ghost guards. The ghost guards entangled her subordinates and others.
Princess Jing took the opportunity to escape with the Crown Princess and others. By the time the subordinates escaped from the ghost guards, there was no trace of Princess Jing and others."
Chu Yichen's face changed slightly.
Ghost Guard.
Isn’t that the assassin formed by the imperial grandfather?
With the death of the emperor's grandfather, the Ghost Guards had not seen the light of day for twenty or thirty years. He thought that the Ghost Guards had been disbanded, or that they were all dead.
Why do new ghost guards appear now?
Chu Yichen was sweating on his forehead.
The ghost guard belonged to the emperor's grandfather. Did the emperor pass the ghost guard to his father when his grandfather died? What a coincidence, his father also happened to disappear during this time.
Could it be that Father Emperor and Su Xing'er have joined forces?
Chu Yichen is full of conspiracy theories.
He gritted his teeth and said, "The city gate has been closed early today. Su Xing'er and others must still be in the capital. They will lead troops to search for me. Even if they dig three feet into the ground, I will find her!"
The father and the crown princess must be with Su Xing'er. As long as they find Su Xing'er, they will be found.
"yes!"
"Wait!" Chu Yichen called Wei Du again, "After you find Su Xing'er, you are not allowed to hurt her, but the people around her are rebels, so kill them all!"
"yes!"
Weidu was ordered to retreat.
This time Chu Yichen was not in the mood to sit and warm himself by the fire. He looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Grandma Huang..."
"The Ai family said that as long as they see that Xing'er is safe and sound, they will naturally make a decision."
"..."
Chu Yichen's eyes were spitting fire.
He really wanted to kill the Queen Mother without hesitation, but if the Queen Mother died, all the people in charge of the palace would be dead, and no one would be able to "prove" that he brought troops into the palace today to quell the rebellion.
.
Damn it.
When he becomes emperor, he will settle accounts with this damn old woman.
Chu Yichen fluttered his sleeves and left.
The moment his back disappeared, the Queen Mother's heart slowly fell back to its original position. She knelt in front of Guanyin and prayed devoutly, "Amitabha. Guanyin Bodhisattva, please keep Xing'er safe and don't let her be killed by Chu Yi."
Chen’s people were found.”
…
"What did you say? Leaving the palace empty?"
"yes."
The guard knelt at Chu Yichen's feet and wiped off the cold sweat, "When my subordinates led the troops to Prince Li's Mansion, there was only one old eunuch left guarding the gate of Prince Li's Mansion. My subordinates arrested the old eunuch, and the old eunuch didn't say anything at all
The whereabouts of King Li cannot be traced."
"..."
Chu Yichen felt a fire in his heart.
First, Chu Mohan's whereabouts were unknown, and he was still unable to be killed.
It was his father who disappeared with Yuxi again.
Then the Crown Princess and Su Xing'er escaped from under his nose.
Now even Chu Li's sick man has disappeared.
His forced marriage seemed to go very smoothly, but so many variables occurred in the process. Chu Yichen felt a little uneasy, always feeling that some things were out of his control.
He gritted his teeth and ordered, "Give me the order. Immediately hang the bodies of the two rebels, the late empress and the late prince, at the city gate for three days. The troops at the city gate have been deployed for me. Anyone who is suspicious does not need to be notified to me."
, shoot to death without mercy!"
"yes!"
…
It snowed heavily all night.
A thick layer of snow fell, a full 20 centimeters deep. The thick snow covered up the blood stains left by the princess when she escaped the night before, causing a lot of trouble for Chu Yichen's carpet-like search.
It's dark.
Changye used Qinggong and left Prince Li's Mansion quietly.
When he came back, he brought a lot of food to carry the hungry. At the same time, he also brought back the news that the queen and the prince were hung at the city gate.
Under long sleeves.
Little Star clenched her fists.
"Beast! Beast!"
Ah Da's eyes were even more bloodshot, "The deceased is the greatest, how could they insult the Queen and His Highness the Crown Prince like this? No! Even if I risk my life, I will save His Highness and let him rest in peace."
Said.
Ah Da was about to rush out, and the guards who came out from the East Palace behind him followed him.
"stop!"
Little Xingxing stopped them, "Don't go!"
"Princess, no matter what you say, we have to go today. His Royal Highness has shown kindness to his subordinates. Even if they die, they cannot let His Highness suffer such humiliation!"
Little Xingxing stopped a few people, she raised her eyes and looked at Ada, "Don't be impulsive, I have a way."
