On the back garden road leading to the Royal Palace.

Yuying and Su Yifei walked briskly, Yuying was dressed as a princess, but still wearing a full moon scimitar and carrying a piano on her shoulder.

Yuying knew that as soon as she and Yifei left Shulan Palace, they would definitely be followed by the Queen Mother's eyes, and she and Yifei would never let the Queen Mother know about Cheng Hai.

Su Yifei was wearing the clothes of the imperial guard, carrying a sword on his back, and his eyes were deep.

Before leaving the Shulan Palace, Fu Cheng told himself that the master of Ouchi often went to the woods in the back garden to practice martial arts in the morning, and although Cheng Hai was injured by his own darts last night, the injury was not serious.

Su Yifei thought that Cheng Hai had already done things for the emperor, although he was resistant to himself and Yuying asking about the desert back then, he would still reveal something.

However, Gao Ping was an important witness, and if Cheng Hai did not know where he was hiding in the capital, he had to find someone else.

Suddenly, Yuying had an idea, Leng Zihan and Wei Shan had never seen Gao Ping.

I had to write Gao Ping's physiognomy carefully, and when I learned Gao Ping's address in the capital from Cheng Haikou, I would fly a pigeon and pass it on to Leng Zihan.

Now it is important to convince Cheng Hai first.

When Yuying and Su Yifei passed through the back garden, there was really a big forest in front of them, and the sound of swords colliding could be faintly heard.

"As soon as he flies, Cheng Hai must be in the woods."

"Well, but we have to observe first, it's best to be able to bypass some other Ouchi masters, so as to avoid letting the Queen Mother's eyes see us."

Yuying and Su Yifei did not go directly into the woods, but hid next to a big tree to observe, and found that there were several masters in the woods who were competing in martial arts.

Suddenly, Yuying found Cheng Hai's figure not far away, and saw him practicing darts alone.

Su Yifei visually inspected Cheng Hai's position, and had a way in his heart, he picked up a small stone on the ground and threw it at Cheng Hai's back.

Cheng Hai, who was concentrating on practicing darts, only felt a pain in his back, and he quickly turned around to take a look. Although he didn't notice anything unusual, his eyes scanned the trees not far away.

He drew his long sword and walked quickly and cautiously to the big tree, and when he saw Yuying and Su Yifei, he was completely stunned.

Isn't it the beautiful Princess Xuanying and the imperial guard Yunhu more than a year ago?

Su Yifei motioned to Cheng Hai not to speak, he knew that Princess Xuanying and Yunhu must have something important to do with him, and this was not the place to speak.

Cheng Hai lowered his voice and said, "Princess, there is basically no one behind the woods. ”

Yuying and Su Yifei followed Cheng Hai around the woods to the back of the woods, where the trees were verdant.

Su Yifei said: "Cheng Hai, you must be very strange how Princess Xuanying and I are still alive. ”

Cheng Hai's eyes widened, and he was shocked in his heart, it turned out that Su Yifei was really Yunhu.

Suddenly, Cheng Hai secretly screamed badly, because he felt that Duke Xuan Ying was going to ask about the ambush in the desert back then.

"Princess Xuanying, Yunhu, I don't know anything in Xia, I'm just a master under the Queen Mother."

Yuying said sharply: "Cheng Hai, the emperor has begun to investigate the truth of the desert back then, if you don't report it, will the emperor still trust you?" And my enemy with Yifei is the queen mother. ”

Cheng Hai felt that Princess Xuanying was right, she really needed to gain the emperor's trust, and she knew that there were very few things in the desert back then.

"Okay, I understand below, but I only know one thing below."

Suddenly, Cheng Hai choked up, his face was full of sadness, and his thoughts returned to the night a year ago.

Yuying and Su Yifei felt that Cheng Hai seemed to be recalling the painful past, maybe there would be some secret in his heart.

"Cheng Hai, have all the masters sent to the desert by the Queen Mother been wiped out by the Queen Mother?"

Su Yifei's question made Cheng Hai even more sad, and he couldn't help hiding his face and crying.

He muttered, "All dead, and my good brother Komatsu is among them." ”

Yuying asked, "Who killed you?" ”

Cheng Hai gritted his teeth, the resentment in his heart was unbearable, and the hatred that had been buried in his heart for a long time came to his heart.

"A year ago, Komatsu told me that he was going to the desert, and I was curious to ask him what he was going to do, but he only said that it was a secret and could not tell."

Su Yifei said: "How did you find out that Xiao Song was killed by the Queen Mother?" You have been forbearing, and you must be hoping to avenge Komatsu one day. ”

Cheng Hai didn't expect Yun Hu to understand his forbearance, he felt that Yun Hu had a big strategy.

"Later, Komatsu returned to the palace, and that night I followed him all the way to Gaoping's residence. Outside the living room, I eavesdropped on their conversation to find out what Komatsu was doing in the desert, and I saw Gao Ping taking turns toasting ten masters. ”

Yuying said: "It was Gao Ping who killed those masters with poisoned wine. ”

Cheng Hai nodded and said: "Gao Ping didn't drink anything, he just persuaded him to drink, I didn't notice it at all, I thought Gao Ping was giving everyone a celebration banquet, but who ......knows."

"Gao Ping has escaped from the palace, do you know where he is hiding in the capital? Duke Xuan Ying and I want to catch him as soon as possible. ”

As soon as he heard that Gao Ping was going to be arrested, Cheng Hai suddenly cheered up, he was alone and couldn't help Xiao Song avenge before, but now that Princess Xuanying and Yunhu have returned, they may be able to bring down the Queen Mother.

"Yunhu, although I don't know Gao Ping's hiding place in the capital, I know that Gao Ping is a gambler."

……

In front of the main hall of the Royal Palace.

Qingrou waited anxiously for the emperor, and made up her mind in her heart. When the emperor came to the early court, he made the original promise to him, but I don't know the emperor's attitude towards Brother Yunhu now.

In the past, the emperor felt that Brother Yunhu was not worthy of Xuan Ying, so he listened to his aunt's words.

let Xuan Ying make peace with the prince of the Ruiqi clan, but Brother Yunhu chased him to the desert, and ended up in an ambush set by his aunt.

Suddenly, Qingrou frowned, I hope that the ambush in the desert was not planned by her father, otherwise Brother Yunhu will seek revenge on his father, he is the daughter of Brother Yunhu's enemy, and Brother Yunhu will be even more disgusted with himself.

At this moment, Qingrou was so anxious that she stomped her feet, and her heart could no longer be calm,

She hurriedly walked back and forth outside the main hall. Qingrou felt that her father at least knew about her aunt's plans, because her aunt had always consulted her father about everything.

Qingrou sighed helplessly, Brother Yunhu only likes Xuan Ying, and she is the daughter of Mu Taiwei, but she still has the last glimmer of hope in her heart, that is, she hopes that the emperor can fulfill the promise of the year.

When the emperor returned to the main hall after the morning court, he saw Qingrou waiting outside the main hall with an anxious face, knowing that she must have something important to find her.

"Your Majesty, Qingrou has one thing to explain to the emperor."

The emperor nodded and did not speak, but walked directly into the main hall. In fact, the emperor was thinking about the affairs of the early dynasty, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to go to the Huaijiang area to investigate, and they were afraid of the power of Mu Taiwei.

At this time, Qingrou became uneasy and worried, the emperor had such a cold attitude towards him, whether he could fulfill the promise he made back then.

For Brother Yunhu, even if the emperor is angry, he has to make the promise he made back then.

Qingrou walked into the hall and saw the emperor frowning and writing with a brush, Qingrou's heart sank, but she still had to bring it up anyway.

"Your Majesty, Qingrou saw Brother Yunhu last night, since Brother Yunhu is still alive, you should fulfill your original promise and give Qingrou and Brother Yunhu marriage."

The emperor was stunned, he didn't expect Qingrou to still remember his original promise, but he was confused for a while, and he also felt that Yunhu was not worthy of Xuan Ying, so he really regretted it, and he was ashamed of Xuan Ying.

"Qingrou, I have long regretted it, I am sorry for Xuan Ying, and I also caused Yunhu and Xuanying to die in vain in the desert, now that Xuanying and Yunhu can return to the palace alive, I will not break them up again, but hope that they will be happy and happy together."

Qingrou is unwilling to let the emperor's promise to herself turn into nothingness, and she will fight for it again, but it will anger the emperor, but there is no other way.

"Your Majesty, do you regret being useful? I have told Xuan Ying about the promise you made to me, and I believe that Xuan Ying will hate you in her heart. ”

The emperor said calmly: "Qingrou, in fact, I don't care that Xuan Ying will resent herself, I was sorry for her at the beginning, but you don't seem to know Xuan Ying, she is open-minded." ”

Qingrou feels hopeless, what should I do? Brother Yunhu only loves Xuan Ying, and he and Xuan Ying are incompatible, do you want to treat Brother Yunhu like an enemy? Qingrou was conflicted.

Suddenly, Qingrou thought that Xuan Ying and Brother Yunhu had returned for revenge, and her aunt was the initiator, and it would be even worse if her father was also involved.

Xuan Ying and Brother Yunhu will leave the palace sooner or later, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see Brother Yunhu again in the future.

"Your Majesty, you said that Xuan Ying is open-minded, and you seem to know Xuan Ying's future plans."

The emperor knew that Qingrou was testing herself, and it was also possible that the queen mother asked her to inquire about the news.

"Well, I do know Xuanying's plans in the future, but I can't tell you, because if you know, the queen mother will know."

Because his aunt didn't believe in him at all, the emperor thought that he and his aunt were in the same group.

"Your Majesty, Qingrou needs to tell you one thing, I have broken with my aunt, because I know that my aunt killed Brother Yunhu, and Qingrou will never forgive her for the rest of her life."

Suddenly, Qingrou realized that she had leaked her mouth, but it was too late to regret it, and Qingrou was anxious and at a loss.

The emperor was shocked, Xuan Ying's death in the desert was indeed secretly instructed by the queen mother.

"Qingrou, how do you know?"

Suddenly, a thought flashed in Qingrou's mind, and she felt scared, her aunt had always been ruthless.

"Your Majesty, don't ask, you also know your aunt's viciousness, Qingrou still has to save her life."

"Okay, Qingrou, don't worry, I will send two masters to protect you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Qingrou farewell."

Qingrou left the main hall in a panic, followed by two Ouchi masters.

She sighed deeply, she was hot-headed for Brother Yunhu, what should she do in the future, and hoped that her father would return to the capital soon.

After calming down, Qingrou thought about the situation in front of her. My aunt always only used herself, and my father only valued his brother.

The emperor named himself a princess because Xuan Ying died.

Brother Yunhu has a deep affection for Xuan Ying, but he can't live without Brother Yunhu. Suddenly, Qingrou secretly spontaneously became ruthless, and her eyes showed a cold light.

At this time, he was in the emperor's hall.

The emperor no longer had the intention of writing, so he put the brush on the pen holder and fell into deep thought.

The queen mother lied to herself back then, she said that the prince of the Ruiqi tribe was a good match for Xuan Ying, and the Ruiqi tribe was strong and strong, and the harmony was harmless to the Great Meng Dynasty.

I also wanted Xuan Ying to break off her infatuation with Yunhu, it was he who caused Xuan Ying to die in the desert, and the emperor regretted not being at the beginning and hated himself.

It turned out that the queen mother had already calculated it, and she forgot that she had always wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots to Xuan Ying.

Thinking of this, the emperor was furious, and now the queen mother has always wanted to put Xuan Ying to death, it is time to break with the queen mother, and the emperor clenched his fists.
