254. Chapter 254 Internal and external cooperation 2
Ni Jun is a knife in the hands of the late emperor.
He has been sharpening his skills since he was a child, and since then he has been successful. At the age of nineteen, he was called a sycophant by the world, and at the age of twenty-five, he became powerful.
To Ni Jun, all of this seems like it happened yesterday.
Reaching out and touching the gems inlaid on the back of the peanut candy, he smiled and said, "When did you know that?"
"If you don't want others to know, unless you don't do it yourself, there are two secret passages in your house, one leading to the palace and the other leading to Chu Yan's mansion. Every time the turtle speaks, it is an illusion created by you using ventriloquism. Remember Chu
Those days when Yan pretended to be crazy, right? I was afraid that someone would harm him, so I sent someone to protect him secretly, but I accidentally discovered the secret passage. Huh, Xiaoyaohou, you are very brave, how dare you instigate this
emperor."
With all the witnesses and material evidence available, Ni Jun couldn't deny it and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect you know a lot at such a young age."
"I am not here to ask for your praise. Yu Buhuan is my future princess. Now that she is in trouble, how can I stand by and watch."
"But what does that have to do with me?"
"It was you who caused her to be misunderstood by the emperor."
"The emperor won't kill her, don't worry." Ni Jun comforted her.
"The emperor won't do it, but some people will."
Ni Jun was silent.
Chu Yuan stood up and said righteously: "You must help me rescue her."
Ni Jun chuckled: "Prince Regent, even if she is rescued, how can you get her out?"
Chu Yuan showed an intriguing smile at this time: "Of course there is."
…
At noon, when the sun was at its strongest, a burst of bad news suddenly came from the palace, and the death knell rang.
"The Queen Mother is dead."
When Ni Jun got the news, the chess piece in his hand fell on the chessboard with a clatter.
He looked meaningfully at the dead trees outside and murmured: "These days, even children are so powerful, tsk tsk tsk."
The emperor had just ascended the throne, and the queen mother died. This was very ominous, so Chu Yan decided to mourn quietly without disturbing anyone.
In order to avoid anyone talking, a simple mourning hall was set up in the palace. After worshiping for a night, the mausoleum was moved to the mausoleum early the next morning.
When night fell, Chu Yan kept vigil.
The dark wind blew, causing the white sails to flutter like crazy. Chu Yan knelt on the ground with an expressionless face, but there was no trace of sadness on her face.
"Mother, I know that I am a tool in your hands, but I still hold on to unrealistic hopes that one day you can look at me as your son."
"The Taifu once told me that there is no parent in this world who does not cherish their children, but I never felt that you cherished me."
"You instigated the relationship between me and the Taifu. Although I feel very sad, I tolerate it because you are a mother. But do you think that I am your son?"
"Now that you are dead, everything has returned to dust. Regardless of past grievances, I have erected a monument of immortality for future generations to look up to. Under the Nine Springs, it's time for you to rest in peace."
After Chu Yan finished speaking, she suddenly felt something passing behind her. She turned around suddenly and found that there was nothing.
…
At this moment, Cheng Chencheng was lying on the ground panting: "The Emperor is not well."
Chu Yan turned around slowly: "What's the matter?"
Cheng Chencheng was out of breath and said: "Yu Buhuan and Xuanyuan Mu actually broke out of the formation. They were together and it was dark. We didn't dare to shoot arrows and they ran away."
Chu Yan stood up suddenly and widened her eyes: "When did it happen?"
