[69 Book Bar-www.] The second prince looked at her, paused, and sighed softly.
"You're not supposed to know this."
"Brother Emperor, I have grown up. There are some things that I will know even if you don't tell me."
The second prince covered his mouth and coughed a few times. After calming down for a moment, he said, "The cause and effect of this matter should start with her mother."
"Concubine Xiao Shu?" Ling Yue put down the osmanthus cake in her hand, slightly surprised.
The second prince nodded lightly.
"Isn't her mother already dead?"
"But do you know the reason for her death?"
Ling Yue shook her head, "You won't say it's related to us, right?"
"We don't know whether it is relevant or not, but one thing is certain, that is, Yiyang at least resents us." After a pause, the second prince continued: "Concubine Xiao Shu was quite popular with her father before she was given the title of queen by her mother.
The emperor's favorite, ten years before you were born, that is, twenty-four years ago, the favored Concubine Xiao Shu suddenly fell out of favor and was ordered to be imprisoned in a secret room. Her limbs were amputated and thrown into a wine vat. Later, the emperor ordered her to be given a gift.
die."
Ling Yue took a breath, her hands and feet were cut off, and she was also locked in a wine vat. This cruel thing made Ling Yue feel terrible.
Ling Yue suddenly felt confused in her heart. Although the second prince spoke calmly, Ling Yue seemed to see scenes dripping with blood, which made her dizzy and made her chest feel extremely heavy. All these made Ling Yue's heart unable to calm down.
If Ling Yue saw this kind of cruel punishment with her own eyes, she would definitely faint on the spot.
What kind of crime would cause her beloved concubine to be subjected to such cruel torture? Ling Yue couldn't figure it out, and she didn't want to think about it anymore.
The second prince looked at Ling Yue, who was slightly pale, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He walked up to her, patted her gently, "Don't think about these things anymore, they are already old now."
It’s an old thing.”
Ling Yue's stomach churns, and she wants to vomit when she thinks of those bloody scenes.
After holding back, Ling Yue raised her head and looked at him, "Brother Emperor, is it because of this incident that Sister Yi Yang was left out? I think the house she lives in is simpler than the other princesses." Ling Yue thought about Princess Yi Yang's coldness.
face, and I suddenly felt that she was very pitiful.
The second prince nodded.
"Then...who is the person who ordered the death of Concubine Xiao Shu?"
Looking at Ling Yue's clear eyes, the second prince remained silent and just patted Ling Yue gently.
Just when Ling Yue wanted to ask further, the sound of swords clashing suddenly came from outside the house.
Ling Yue and the second prince were slightly startled and walked to the window to take a look.
Outside the house, swords were flashing, figures were shaking, and screams were heard one after another. Thunder broke through the sky, lightning cut through the black clouds, sand flew among the rocks, and it seemed like a strong wind.
"Someone has come to save us. I'll go take a look." Ling Yue felt happy.
"No." The second prince stopped her. "I can't tell whether it's an enemy or a friend right now. You stay here for now while my brother goes out to take a look."
"Peace..." At this moment, a call came from outside the window.
Ling Yue was stunned for a moment, walked to the window and took a look, only to see the fourth prince standing in the courtyard holding a long sword.
"Second Emperor Brother, it's Fourth Emperor Brother, it's Fourth Emperor Brother." Ling Yue excitedly said to the Second Prince.
"Brother Four Emperors, I'm here..." Ling Yue shouted back out the window, then grabbed the clothes of Brother Two Emperors and ran downstairs.
