Wu Jiu said with a trace of regret: "I thought everyone in the world knew that I, Wu Jiu, could live to death with human flesh and white bones, but it turned out not to be the case. Now, there is nothing I can do. I heard that an old friend of mine was also poisoned by the same poison.
, then I will take the first step."
After saying that, Wu Jiu's body flashed and turned into a cyan shadow, disappearing in the royal study room instantly. Dongfang Chen made a gesture, and three black figures followed him, and then in less than a breath, there was a "plop" outside the window.
"Plop" came the sound of three heavy objects falling to the ground.
Dongfang Chen felt a shiver in his heart. He opened the window and found three top secret guards all falling to the ground in a large shape.
Dongfang Chen's face darkened, and then he strode out: "An Fuhai, take the ride and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Yun family.
There were white flowers hanging on the lintel of the main door. As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard faint sounds of crying coming from the house.
The boy guarding the gate saw a group of palace guards approaching in a carriage with great momentum, and quickly informed his companions to inform the housekeeper. Then, he saw Dongfang Chen, who was dressed in a dragon robe, stepping off the carriage and quickly knelt down on the ground to say hello.
Just as An Fuhai was about to report, Dongfang Chen stretched out his hand to stop him, and then strode inside.
Along the way, all the servants of the Yun family were frightened and fell to their knees on the ground.
The butler hurried over and after saluting, he asked tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I have sent someone to inform my master. Please come with me."
"I'm not here to see Prime Minister Yun, I'm here to see your fifth lady." Dongfang Chen said calmly, "You can lead the way."
"But, Your Majesty, my fifth young lady has..." The butler looked embarrassed.
"I know, I'm here to see her off on her last journey." Dongfang Chen interrupted the housekeeper lightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Please follow me." The butler bowed and led the way to the mansion.
Soon, Dongfang Chen saw the mourning hall in the front yard, surrounded by wreaths and a vermilion coffin placed in the middle.
Mrs. Zhu threw herself on the coffin, crying so hard that she couldn't breathe.
Yun Jingyan was sitting in a wheelchair, with a pale face and dull eyes, as if she was in a daze; Yun Jingxi was kneeling on the ground, with a gloomy face and a trace of resentment in her eyes, staring straight ahead; next to her was Yun Jingteng, with swollen eyes.
He turned into a walnut, but he didn't cry, he just kept wiping his tears with his fists.
Behind, several girls were kneeling, crying until their voices became hoarse.
Yun Jingchu died in infancy, so according to the rules, no large-scale funeral arrangements were allowed. However, Yun Shangren felt sorry for Yun Jingchu, so he allowed Yun Jingchu's coffin to stay in the yard for three days.
After receiving the news, Yun Shangren hurried out and when he saw Dongfang Chen, he quickly knelt down to say hello.
"Get back on your feet. Let me see Miss Yun Wu." Dongfang Chen did not look at Yun Shangren, but looked at the coffin in the middle of the mourning hall and said calmly.
Seeing that the housekeeper wanted to remind others, Dongfang Chen stopped him: "Don't disturb others."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Shangren stood up and stood respectfully aside.
After a moment of silence, Dongfang Chen spoke again: "Prime Minister Yun, can you blame me?"
"I dare not." Yun Shangren bowed and said.
"You don't dare to blame, but you don't know how to blame, right?" An unknown expression flashed in Dongfang Chen's eyes, and then he turned to look at Yun Shangren.
Yun Shangren was sweating on his forehead, and he quickly said: "I don't dare blame you, and I won't blame you, Your Majesty."
"Sincerely?" Dongfang Chen raised his eyebrows.
"The humble minister dare not deceive the emperor. Strictly speaking, this matter is Concubine Shu's fault. And Concubine Shu is my daughter." Yun Shangren bowed.
"..." Dongfang Chen said nothing and looked at the coffin again.
