Shu Jin was angry and anxious at the same time, "How long has this been and you still want to hide it from me?"
Hong Zhou said bitterly: "This unethical beast actually wanted to get his hands on the Gao family yesterday!"
Shu Jin was stunned.
Hong Zhou returned to Changchun Immortal Hall yesterday evening and went straight to Yanqing Hall in Fujin, only to see Gao with his eyes red from crying.
"Mr. Gao met Lao Si yesterday on the way to Ciyun Puhu." Hong Zhouhan said with a face.
Shu Jin: It’s Ciyun Protector again!
Hong Zhou's face turned livid, "If Gao hadn't been smart enough to temporarily change his itinerary and turn back, I'm afraid——"
Shu Jin was stunned: "Does that mean Gao didn't go to Ciyun for protection?"
Hong Zhou gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "But Hongli went! And he knew that Gao originally planned to go to Ciyun to provide protection!" - It is conceivable that if Gao did not change his schedule and was in Ciyun to provide protection at that time, he would not know.
Something terrible is going to happen.
Shu Jin's face was serious. She confirmed with Hong Zhou again: "Did Sibeile really go to Ciyun for protection?"
Hong Zhou nodded again.
Shu Jin asked again: "When did he go and when did he leave?"
Hong Zhou was stunned for a moment and said: "I went there in the evening, and then there was a blizzard, and he was trapped in Ciyun Puhu. So, he didn't go back to Xinghua Chun Pavilion last night. As for where he went..." Hong Zhou frowned.
Eyebrow, the little stone in his eyeliner is not Hongli's close confidant, so I don't know about it at this moment.
Shu Jin's face was solemn, "Did you know that Liu Guiren also went to Ciyun to protect you yesterday, and he did not go to the imperial court to attend to the disease last night?"
Hong Zhou's face changed drastically, "What do you mean-"
Shu Jin rubbed his eyebrows. After such analysis, the truth emerged.
The only one who can make a prince disappear in the palace is the emperor.
When she went to the Qingyan Palace in Jiuzhou this morning, Prince Yi happened to be by her side - I'm afraid it wasn't a coincidence. In all likelihood, Prince Yi had just sent orders to Ciyun to protect and imprison Sibeile! And... only...
I'm afraid I'll catch him in bed.
That's why Yongzheng was so angry that he vomited blood.
I really didn’t expect that Sibeile would be so bold as to do this!
On a snowy night, here comes the Bodhisattva!
"The fourth child is having an affair with Liu Guiren?!" Hong Zhou's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
Shu Jin said with a dark face: "What 'fornication'? It's obviously rape..." She quickly swallowed the last word. The fornication was premeditated, and what happened last night was the result of many coincidences.
Accident.
Hong Zhou gritted his teeth: "If Mr. Gao had gone to Ciyun to protect him yesterday -" then it wouldn't be Liu Guiren who would suffer! It wouldn't be Khan Amma who would be cuckolded!
Yes, Sibeile was afraid that the person he was targeting at the beginning was Gao.
Fortunately, Gao was clever and survived.
As for Liu Guiren, he was really unlucky.
Recently Liu Guiren often went to Ciyun Puhu to pray for the emperor, but Hongli mistakenly thought that the Gao family had also gone there, so he followed him. Unexpectedly, he didn't block the Gao family, but bumped into Liu Guiren.
Shu Jin frowned, still a little confused: "How could he be so bold?!"
If the target were the Gao family, the emperor would certainly be furious, but touching his brother's concubine and his concubine were not the same crime.
If it were the former, Yongzheng would certainly have punished him severely by four beiles, but at most he would have been demoted or dismissed. Hong Zhou could not beat and kill his brothers just for a little concubine, and he would not be allowed to knock out his teeth and swallow his blood.
.
And the latter...Yongzheng was an emperor, how could he endure a cuckold? He was probably already murderous towards his son.
Whether it is forcing a concubine or having an affair with a noble person, it is a capital crime!
Where did Sibeile get his courage?! And where did he get the confidence to hide the truth from the emperor?!
Shu Jin rubbed his eyebrows.
Hong Zhou snorted coldly: "I think he has lost his mind and gone crazy!"
As he said that, Hong Zhou showed a sneer. He coveted the people in his seventh brother's house, and his seventh brother couldn't bear it any longer. He was thinking about my concubine, and I couldn't bear it for a while! But he just reached out to Khan Amma's harem!
I don’t believe that Khan Ama can bear it!
At this moment, eunuch Zhang Shoufa walked in quickly, bowed and said: "Empress, Fifth Master, Concubine Xi would like to see you."
At this time, Shu Jin was impatient to see Niu Hulu, but then he thought that someone needed to test the emperor's attitude on this matter, so he straightened his clothes and said, "Let her in."
Concubine Xi had an anxious look on her face and hurried into the palace. She knelt down in front of Shu Jin with a thud and said, "My dear concubine, Hongli...he is missing!"
Shu Jin raised his eyebrows: I just found out now that your son has evaporated!
Concubine Xi's eyes were so anxious that her eyes were red, "Early this morning, Xiao Shitou, the eunuch who served Hongli as a rough messenger, came to my concubine to report that Hongli did not return to Xinghuachun Palace all night last night! I am surrounded by people.
I went down to look for it, but I haven’t found any trace so far!”
Shu Jin looked calm: "Have you left the palace?"
Concubine Xi hurriedly shook her head: "The emperor's dragon body has not recovered from the illness, how could he leave the palace?! Besides, I also asked all the palace gates, but no prince has left the palace!"
Shu Jin looked puzzled: "This morning, I went to the emperor to pay my respects. All the princes have gone, but Sibeile is missing. I thought he was tired and sick because of the hard work of serving the emperor."
Concubine Xi was so anxious that she almost shed tears, "My dear concubine, I don't have enough manpower, please send someone to search for it! There are so many lakes in this garden, just in case..."
Thinking of that possibility, Concubine Xi's face instantly lost all color.
Shu Jin quickly comforted him: "Don't be impatient. First, ask someone where Sibeile went yesterday. Then we will start searching from the place where he disappeared."
Concubine Xi hurriedly said: "The rough eunuch who was serving Hongli said that Hongli went to Ciyun Protector yesterday afternoon and never came back. I also went to look for him immediately, and Ciyun Protector was not there at all."
no one!"
It seemed that Concubine Xi was a step behind Prince Yi, and the building was empty just in time.
Shu Jin raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Ciyun Puhu again?"
Concubine Xi's expression tightened: "What do you mean by your words? Is there anything wrong with Ciyun Puhu?"
Shu Jin lowered his voice and said, "Yesterday evening, Liu Guiren also went there."
Mentioning the Liu family, Concubine Xi couldn't help but frown.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seeing that Concubine Xi didn't seem to be thinking about it, Shu Jin said: "You also know that there was a sudden wind and snow last night, and Liu Guiren was trapped in Ciyun Puhu
"I didn't return to Chunxi Hall until dawn this morning, and I fell ill after I returned." - Prince Yi caught the traitor, dealt with it, and put it in place before dawn. This action was quite fast.
Concubine Xi frowned deeply. She naturally expected that Hongli would be trapped in the Ciyun Puhu Palace due to such a heavy snowstorm last night.
Shu Jin chuckled, but before he even thought about it, he said quietly: "Liu Guiren's personal maid, Ari, drowned in the lake outside Ciyun Puhu. She was also found at dawn this morning."
Concubine Xi's face changed drastically.
Shu Jin secretly thought: Do you understand now?
"Could it be that... Hongli had a conflict with the Liu family and accidentally killed Liu Guiren's personal maid? So Liu Guiren was frightened and fell ill?" Concubine Xi said, stroking her chest.
Shu Jin:……
Damn, don’t you know that your son is very lustful? Don’t you know that Liu Guiren is a beauty?
Shu Jin said calmly: "I don't know if Liu Guiren is really sick. Anyway, Chunxi Hall is blocked by the imperial people now, and no one can see her."
Concubine Xi was shocked: "The emperor has put Liu Guiren under house arrest?!"
Shu Jin nodded and continued to persuade: "You might as well think about it, who can make a prince disappear in the palace?"
Only then did Concubine Xi realize that things were worse than she had imagined, "All last night, Hongli and Liu Guiren were in Ciyun Puhu Hall..."
The prince and his concubine.
Shu Jin secretly thought, now he finally came up with an idea.
Concubine Xi hurriedly grabbed Shu Jin's sleeve and said, "My dear concubine, the emperor must have misunderstood! The wind and snow were so heavy last night that Hongli had to live in the same palace as the Liu family! Liu Guiren has always been very kind to his concubines.
Hostility, how could Hongli have anything to do with her..."
After all, Concubine Xi couldn't say the word "affair".
Shu Jin spread his hands, "Maybe we are overthinking. Maybe the emperor was just angry that Sibeile was disrespectful to his concubine, so he detained him somewhere and ordered him to think about his mistakes."
Hearing this, Concubine Xi nodded her head: "Yes, yes, Hongli was just young and impulsive! There are so many beautiful concubines in his house, how could it be possible..."
While Concubine Xi was comforting herself, she murmured: "Then where did the emperor imprison Hongli?"
Shu Jin said calmly: "It's not in the Shenxing Department, nor in any palace garden. I think it's probably in the secret cell at the stick." - Even if she has been in charge of the harem for so many years, she still can't find out the details of the secret cell.
location.
Actually... I still have some guesses about the approximate location, but I don't dare to inquire about it.
The sticky rod was the emperor's secret weapon. She was stupid to touch it!
Concubine Xi's face turned pale again, "Why did you send out the Sticky Rod Office? Are you still locked up in a secret prison?" - Hongli had been well-fed and well-fed since he was a child, where could he live in a place like a prison cell?!
Hong Zhou on the side spoke slowly: "Mom and concubine, please don't worry, Khan Ama was just angry for a moment, no matter what, this is a life-threatening incident."
Concubine Xi gritted her teeth and stamped her feet: "It was just a palace maid who died!" - How could Hongli be punished so severely?!
Shu Jin frowned when he heard this, what happened to the palace maid? The palace maid is no longer a human being?!
Shu Jin's patience finally ran out, "Okay, let's wait until the Emperor calms down to talk about this." - It's just a matter of being locked up in a secret prison for a few days, at most receiving some punishment and suffering, without the Emperor's will.
No one dares to take the life of the prince’s elder brother!
How could Concubine Xi sit still? She hurriedly kowtowed and said: "My dear concubine, Hongli has been delicate and delicate since he was young. How can that cell be inhabited in such a deep winter?!"
Shu Jin said coldly: "This is the emperor's will! What's more, he made a mistake and should be punished!"
Seeing the indifferent look on the concubine's face, Concubine Xi suddenly realized, yes, why should the concubine help her, why should she help Hongli? At this time, if she didn't add insult to injury, it would be Amitabha.
Concubine Xi smiled bitterly, she was so anxious that she came to beg the imperial concubine.
Hong Zhou reminded him with a kind face: "Please be patient, mother and concubine. Khan Ama is very angry, so you must not ask for mercy at this time."
Looking at Hong Zhou's seemingly kind face, Concubine Xi could not help but feel cold all over. If the concubine could only stand by and watch, then the fifth elder brother hated Hongli very much! Now that Hongli has angered the Holy Emperor, he is afraid that the fifth elder brother will take advantage of the opportunity.
Step on it hard!
No, she needs to beg for mercy quickly!
The next second, Concubine Xi suddenly got up and ran away staggeringly.
