"What are you most worried about Liu Yinfeng?" Luo Qingyan was a little confused. She raised her eyes and looked at Yun Shang, "Why do you say that?"
Yun Shang walked around the room and then said softly: "Cao Wenxi is the biological mother of Liu Yinfeng and Xia Houjing, but she and Xia Houjing were separated almost as soon as they were born. Xia Houjing probably doesn't care about her.
Feelings, if he could get the throne by killing her, Xia Houjing would definitely not hesitate. But Liu Yinfeng was different. When Liu Yinfeng separated from Cao Wenxi, he was already six or seven years old. He knew the world and had no regard for Cao Wen.
His feelings for Xi are naturally deeper. If he knew that Cao Wenxi was still alive and in my hands now, I'm afraid he would try his best to save her."
"What you are worried about is entirely possible. Although Liu Yinfeng looks as gentle as jade, he is extremely affectionate in his heart. If he is on the opposite side of us, he will be a strong opponent." Luo Qingyan
Sighed softly.
Yun Shang nodded: "That's what I'm worried about. Does your Majesty have any good way to avoid this?"
Luo Qingyan walked over to Ruantan and sat down. He knocked on the table lightly and was silent for a long time before saying, "You dare to take a bet."
"Betting?" Yun Shang's face was full of doubts, and she didn't understand what Luo Qingyan said, "Your Majesty, when you talk about gambling, how do you gamble, and what do you gamble on?"
"Bet on what Liu Yinfeng will choose." Luo Qingyan pulled Yun Shang and sat down next to him: "Since we are worried about Liu Yinfeng's reaction after knowing the matter, instead of letting others tell him, we should go and talk to him in person.
Having said that, at least we will be able to understand a little bit about how he reacts and thinks when the time comes, so that we can be prepared."
Hearing this, Yun Shang sighed softly: "I don't know whether this matter is good or bad for Liu Yinfeng. However, Liu Yinfeng has always been considered upright, and I am willing to believe him this time. When will I tell you?
?”
Luo Qingyan thought for a moment and then responded: "This matter should be taken up sooner rather than later. We will go to Prince Xian's Mansion in person tonight."
"It's just that now that Xia Huanyu has returned to the palace, he must be following our whereabouts very closely. We want to leave the palace quietly, but we are afraid of difficulty." Yun Shang couldn't help but worry, "Why not Liu Yin
The wind calls me into the palace?"
"The palace is not the place to talk, so Xia Huanyu will be handled by me." Luo Qingyan looked calm, but seemed to be confident.
Yun Shang became a little curious: "How does Your Majesty plan to deal with it?"
Luo Qingyan raised his index finger and said with a smile: "How did Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling escape in Lingxi Town before?"
Yun Shang thought about it. At that time, she sent secret guards to follow Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling, but it was because she saw Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling leaving that the secret guards chased them out. But she didn't expect that the two people who left were not at all.
Not Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling.
"The golden cicada escaped from its shell?" Yun Shang blinked.
Luo Qingyan laughed: "Didn't Chang'er often say that you should treat others in their own way? This time, let's do the same thing and let the golden cicada escape from its shell."
As Luo Qingyan spoke, he leaned over and whispered something in Yun Shang's ear. As Yun Shang listened, he couldn't help laughing, with a playful look on his eyes and eyebrows: "Your Majesty is wise."
After dinner, Yun Shang went to Chengye's room first, and Chengye fell asleep early. Yun Shang returned to the dormitory, took out a book to read, and talked to Luo Qingyan from time to time. No.
After a while, it was late at night.
There was a sudden noise outside, and Yun Shang vaguely heard someone shouting loudly again: "Your Majesty, Madam, something has happened."
Yun Shang frowned, a little displeased: "Why are you so alarmed? Let's have a drink and go out and take a look."
Qian Zui responded, opened the curtain and walked out. After a while, he also hurriedly walked in: "Madam, something happened in the private prison. It seems that someone has come to rescue me."
Hearing this, Yun Shang stood up suddenly. The tea cup in his hand was caught by his sleeve and fell to the ground with a "bang" sound. However, Yun Shang didn't care at all, and his voice was raised a bit:
"How could it be? The private cell is so hidden? How could it be discovered? Why don't you take me to have a look?"
Luo Qingyan also stood up, pulled Yun Shang and said, "I'll go with you, don't be anxious, the guards there are tight, even if someone wants to come to save people, nothing will happen for a while."
, it’s cold outside at night, let’s have a drink and go get the cloaks for me and the Queen.”
Qian Zui agreed and hurriedly took out the cloak. Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan put on their cloaks and hats before leaving the dormitory and hurried towards the private cell.
The noise from Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang gradually faded away, but Weiyang Palace gradually became quiet.
After searching for more than half an hour, two figures landed in Prince Xian's Mansion next to Qinglong Street, not far from Jincheng Palace. There were not many servants in Prince Xian's Mansion, so the defense was naturally very lax.
The two figures were not discovered until they landed in the courtyard where the wise king lived: "Who are they?"
A servant sternly scolded, alarming the people in the room who had not yet rested. The door was opened, and the attendant beside Liu Yinfeng poked his head out and asked softly: "Uncle Hu, what happened?
"
When they saw Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan in the yard, they suddenly screamed. Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang took off the hats of their cloaks, and the attendant's screams suddenly stopped, and he said repeatedly:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty and the Queen are here."
After saying that, he hurriedly walked out and knelt down in front of Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang: "Greetings to your majesty and to the empress."
The attendant who had spotted Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan earlier was also stunned when he saw this, and then hurriedly knelt down.
Liu Yinfeng walked out of the house. He was stunned when he saw Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan, and then walked out quickly, "Your Majesty and your empress came to visit late at night, but what's the urgent matter?"
Yun Shang nodded and looked at Liu Yinfeng. Liu Yinfeng seemed to have lost some weight, and the clothes on his body were a little loose. He looked like he would fall down if the wind blew. Yun Shang frowned and said softly:
"But there is something urgent I want to tell you."
Liu Yinfeng raised his eyes and looked at Luo Qingyan, then said: "Your Majesty and the empress should go into the house to talk, the night breeze is a bit cold." As Liu Yinfeng said, he stood aside and said, "
Please" action.
Luo Qingyan carried Yun Shang into the house. Liu Yinfeng stood outside the door for a moment, frowning, wondering what he was thinking.
"Wise King." Luo Qingyan had already entered the house, found a place to sit down, and then turned to look at Liu Yinfeng, who was standing outside the house in a daze.
Liu Yinfeng responded quickly and hurried into the house.
"Qingfeng, go and pour two cups of tea for Your Majesty and Your Majesty." Liu Yinfeng ordered the attendants standing outside the house and sat down.
Luo Qingyan knew that the layout of the house could not be kept secret for long, so he went straight to the topic: "I came out today, but there was something a bit difficult. Chang'er discovered this matter, and she knew more details.
Let her tell you something."
When Liu Yinfeng heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at Yun Shang.
Yun Shang felt a little confused as to where to start. After thinking about it for a long time, she spoke softly: "This matter is related to Young Master Liu's biological mother."
"My mother?" Liu Yinfeng was stunned, "My mother passed away after giving birth to my younger brother more than 20 years ago. Is there anything else related to her?"
Yun Shang nodded gently, and then said after a while: "I heard that after your father-in-law passed away, Ling Ci entered the palace to have a baby, and lived in the palace of Concubine Cao?"
Liu Yinfeng nodded: "Yes, Concubine Cao is my mother's cousin, and the relationship is relatively close."
Yun Shang nodded, remained silent for a moment, then sighed and said quickly: "Ling Ci is not dead, he is still alive now."
When Liu Yinfeng heard this, he was shocked, his eyes were full of disbelief, and it took him a while to find his voice: "How could it be? I had already entered Jincheng at that time, and after my mother died, I still entered the palace to see her.
I saw her for the last time, she is my mother, how could I recognize the wrong person?"
"Ling Ci is good at the art of disguise, does the prince know?" Yun Shang knew that Liu Yinfeng would not believe it, so as soon as he finished speaking, she quickly asked.
"The art of disguise?" Liu Yinfeng seemed to be lost in memories after hearing this. After a while, he shook his head: "I never heard that my mother knew this."
Yun Shang said softly: "I'm afraid that the prince was also deceived by Ling Ci. The person who died that year was the real concubine Cao, and Ling Ci disguised herself as concubine Cao and lived in the palace for more than twenty years.
Year."
Liu Yinfeng was stunned for a long time, still unable to believe it, and shook his head repeatedly: "Impossible, why would she do this? She entered the palace with the intention of dying when she was preparing for childbirth. After her father died, she always seemed to be lost.
It's like she has lost her soul. If she wants to live, why should she be disguised as Concubine Cao and be confined in that palace?"
Yun Shang sighed, she also understood that this matter had a great impact on Liu Yinfeng, and what he was about to say would probably be even more difficult for him to accept, but Yun Shang had to say it.
"Back then, because your father didn't like being the emperor, he entrusted the country to the Supreme Emperor and left Jincheng to live freely. But what your mother didn't expect was that after the Supreme Emperor ascended the throne, he discovered that the Cao family had different intentions, and that among the family members
, Corruption is rampant. If you want to keep the country of Xia, the Cao family must be eliminated. The Supreme Emperor once wrote to your father to explain this matter, and with your father's consent, he ordered the eradication of the Cao family. This matter was reported to
When your mother heard about it, the Cao family had already been destroyed. Although your mother was extremely sad in her heart, she pretended not to care on her face, but she had tampered with your father's daily meals." Yun Shang's voice gradually became heavier.
Got up.
"You were still with them at that time. If you think about it carefully, your father was still in good health when he left Jincheng, but then he gradually became worse?"
Liu Yinfeng trembled, his eyes full of shock and pain: "You mean, my mother poisoned my father?" (To be continued)
