It was already the second watch, and in the Yonghe Palace, Chen Xiurong was not sleepy at all. She was walking back and forth in the room, her thoughts were disturbed, and she didn't know what happened to what she asked Xiaoyu to do!
If he succeeds, there should be some movement over there right now! Why is it still so quiet, with no signs at all? Although Xiaoyu can't report back immediately, are all the people in Chen Palace dead? Or...
They haven't discovered that the third prince has expired? This is probably impossible!
Could it be that...Xiaoyu missed it? Chen Xiurong felt a chill running down his spine and forced himself to calm down. Even if Xiaoyu missed it, she would have committed suicide immediately! Otherwise, her family would have no hope of surviving! Once she dies, she will die without evidence. Over there in Chen Palace
People must be in riot!
The quieter it is, the less calm her heart becomes
Such silence was so scary! She wished she could go to Chen Palace to see what was going on in person!
"Mother, it's getting late, why don't you go to bed early?" Qiu Ju reminded the master what happened today. He was so distracted. Could it be that something big is really going to happen? Oh my god, master, please don't do anything stupid! If you
If we really do it, we at Yonghe Palace will probably suffer as well!
Chen Xiurong glared at her and shouted: "Shut up!" Rest, rest! Why rest! Only when this is over can we sit back and relax and truly rest! Otherwise, you will have nightmares even if you fall asleep!
She couldn't help it anymore, so she walked out. As soon as she reached the door, she saw Xiao Shizi walking in. Chen Xiurong was startled, thinking that no one informed him.
Xiao Shizi said with a half-smile, "Oh, my lady is not asleep yet, but that's okay. Please come with me!"
Chen Xiurong felt uneasy and asked with a forced smile: "What's the matter, father-in-law?"
Xiao Shizi said: "You will know when you get there!"
Chen Xiurong asked hurriedly: "Where are you going?"
Xiao Shizi's smile became even weirder and he said: "Where else can we go? Of course we have to go to the emperor!"
Chen Xiurong's expression changed and he asked: "Your Majesty, he won't..."
Xiao Shizi laughed dryly and said: "Where are you thinking, Your Majesty? He is very good! Let's go!"
Without any explanation, the two guards stepped forward and made gestures to greet each other. Chen Xiurong gritted his teeth and followed Xiao Shizi.
When they arrived at Qian Palace, Chen Xiurong knelt down to say hello. When he raised his head, he saw Xichen sitting upright and Shen Huan holding the child in his hands? Xiaoyu missed it? How could it happen? Looking next to him, he was dumbfounded. Xiaoyu was there too! It was just a stall.
On the ground, there was blood everywhere, and he was almost out of shape.
"Do you know this person?" Xichen asked coldly
Chen Xiurong was worried, shook his head and said: "I don't know you."
"Don't know her? Humph! Then how come someone saw her going to your palace at noon? This palace maid has already been recruited. Why don't you recruit her in person!"
Chen Xiurong hurriedly defended: "Your Majesty, I am wronged! I don't know this maid at all!"
Xichen snorted coldly: "Unjustly accused? Unjustly accused of what? Unjustly accused of intending to murder the third prince? Humph, I haven't said what she did! You couldn't wait to clarify, it shows that you have a guilty conscience!"
Chen Xiurong was stunned and said hurriedly: "Concubine... I have never done anything. I am just afraid that someone will frame me. I am asking for it. Please be careful, Your Majesty!"
"I did bring you here after knowing clearly! Let me tell you, this palace maid has indeed confessed that you used her family to threaten her to work for you and wanted to kill the third prince!" Xichen said sternly, "I really am.
I didn’t expect that you, who are usually so docile and pitiful, would do such cruel things! You are also a mother and have a second prince to raise, how could you do this!"
Chen Xiurong's face was pale, but he still said stubbornly: "I don't understand what the emperor is talking about. I have never done what the emperor said!"
Xichen was furious, and Shen Huan on the side said quietly: "It's true that you didn't do it yourself, it's just that you asked others to do it first to the eldest son of the emperor, and then to the third prince."
Chen Xiurong looked up in shock and saw two sharp lights coming from Shen Huan. She was suddenly startled and shouted: "You are talking nonsense!"
Xichen said, "If you are talking nonsense, you will know after asking Madam Hui!"
Chen Xiurong shouted: "Your Majesty, don't believe their nonsense!"
Xichen couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and kicked her hard on the chest, shouting: "How dare you! Madam Hui has wronged you, will the queen also wrong you! I don't want to believe that you are a snake and scorpion, but the fact is right in front of you. , I have to believe it!”
The strength of this kick was not small, and it was definitely not the strength that a dying person could have. Chen Xiurong was kicked to the ground, and he almost couldn't breathe. He turned around and looked at Xichen in a daze, tears streaming from his eyes.
Shen Huan walked up to her and said slowly: "Don't you think you are too impatient? I was not in the palace, so you poisoned the emperor's eldest son to death, thinking that without the emperor's eldest son, your second prince could become The prince didn't expect that I would come back and bring Zhao'er back with me. You couldn't wait so much... When Mrs. Hui told me that you were the murderer of the emperor's eldest son, the emperor and I didn't believe it. After this try, I will really kill you. Tried it out”
Chen Xiurong felt a tightness in his chest and said with a trembling voice: "You... Your Majesty..."
"The emperor's illness is not that serious at all, I just did it to confuse you." Shen Huan hugged Zhao'er and patted her gently, "You really disappointed the emperor, he really didn't believe you would do that! It just goes with that saying, you know people, you know faces, but you don’t know hearts!”
Chen Xiurong fell to the ground, with tears in her eyes, her bun loose, her little face looking more and more pitiful. If he hadn't known what she had done, he would have thought that she was the most innocent person in the palace.
"I am wronged, I am really wronged..."
Shen Huan shook his head and sighed: "At this time, you are still saying that you have been wronged. Lady Hui and Xiaoyu have confessed. If you continue to shout that you are wronged, do you also want to try Gong Zhengsi's two hundred torture methods?"
"Concubine..." A moment ago, Chen Xiurong's expression was pitiful. At this moment, she had put away her hypocrisy and became sinister and terrifying. "I'm not convinced! I'm just not convinced! I want my son to be the prince!" What’s wrong with this! What I do is all for Fang’er! For my Fang’er!”
Xichen waved his hand in disgust: "Put it down! I don't want to see her again! Take the second prince to the Chen Palace and hand him over to the queen to raise."
Chen Xiurong shouted hysterically: "No, don't take away my Fang'er! Don't..." Two guards came forward, held her on the left and right and dragged her out. She couldn't struggle and could only shout: "Your Majesty, you don't want it! Your Majesty, you don't want it..." How can you believe this temptress! She even killed the Queen Mother, she will not treat Fang Er well! Your Majesty, it was she who killed the Queen Mother, she killed the Queen Mother..."
Xiao Shizi winked anxiously, and the guard blocked her mouth. He quickly took Xiao Shizi away and secretly glanced at Xichen and Shen Huan. Not letting people live in peace!
