Chapter 167: Protection
Hearing Yi Concubine say this, Li Nian raised her eyebrows in surprise.
How this Jiang Guifei fell, no one in the palace knew better than her and Yi Concubine.
And for the crown prince Ren Tingyou, it is not difficult to find out about this matter.
"Presumably by now, the prince already knows everything." Li Nian hooked the corners of his mouth, thinking that Ren Tingyou estimated that he would not be able to find this layer of Xiaocha, and what he could know was probably that he and Yi Concubine joined forces to bring down Jiang Guifei.
Yi Concubine came to find herself in such a hurry because she wanted to remind herself to be careful of Ren Tingyou.
"Hmm." Yi Concubine's face was really a little solemn, as if she was worried about all this.
"Sister, don't worry, this palace will definitely protect us." In the past year, Li Nian has mastered a lot of things in the harem, and when he talks at this moment, he has some confidence.
What Yi Concubine wanted to hear was exactly this sentence, just because she saw Li Nian worried about her son, Yi Concubine didn't speak directly, but seemed to be guiding Li Nian, making her gradually brave before she could really speak.
Now, Li Nian has made up her mind to protect herself, Yi Concubine has been in the palace for a long time, and she knows what the limit of what she can do, whether it is Xiaocha or Li Nian, it is just the reason why Yi Concubine wants to protect herself.
"My sister is here, thank my sister first." Yi Concubine looked at it and was about to salute Li Nian, but Li Nian hurriedly stopped her:
"Between you and me, there is no need to say such thanks."
Life in the palace is much more difficult than Li Nian imagined, and Yi Concubine can be regarded as helping her a lot along the way.
Don't forget Gou Fugui, it seems to be the most appropriate to use it on the two of them.
"What, is the current queen and Yi Concubine teaming up?!"
Ren Tingyou has not returned to the palace for a long time, and he is already very vague about the affairs of the harem.
He only vaguely remembered that before he sent troops to fight, he had obviously talked secretly with Jiang Guifei, and asked Jiang Guifei to avoid Li Nian's limelight for the time being.
The things that Jiang Guifei did, in the eyes of Ren Tingyou today, are really a little too aggressive, Ren Tingyou may not agree, but Jiang Guifei is his mother after all, Ren Tingyou is only willing to stand on her side, if there is anything wrong with Jiang Guifei, it must be forced by Li Nian and Yi Concubine.
Mo Qiu even found out about the crimes of Jiang Guifei that the emperor found out at the beginning, and it would not be a decent thing to let the emperor give Jiang Guifei a scroll of white silk to death.
fell on Ren Tingyou's ears, but it was automatically ignored as usual.
At present, Ren Tingyou is determined that his mother and concubine must be forced to death by the two of them.
"Mother, I will definitely seek justice for you." Ren Tingyou's three views seem to have been deviated by Jiang Guifei, and the selfish nature of the whole person is also revealed from his bones, he forgot how he just lost the life of a palace maid in vain because of one of his eyes.
At this moment, in Ren Tingyou's eyes, heart, and mind, there is only Concubine Jiang who "died unjustly".
Mo Qiu looked at Ren Tingyou's appearance like this, with a serious expression on his face, but in Mo Qiu's heart, he didn't seem to think so at all at this moment.
But Ren Tingyou didn't know, what he was thinking about was how to bring Li Nian down.
But seeing that he can't go anywhere and can't do anything now, I'm afraid this matter still has to be considered in the long run.
"Don't meddle in the affairs of the eighth child." When Shuyin went to see Ren Qixiu again, Ren Qixiu said to her.
"Yes." The pivotal voice didn't ask why, and answered directly.
"Don't you ask me why I let go of the eighth child so easily?" Ren Qixiu seemed a little interested in why the pivotal voice reacted like this.
"The prince naturally has his own reasons for doing things." Shuyin looked ahead at this time, and his eyes did not reveal half a point of awkwardness, which made Ren Qixiu very satisfied.
Ren Qixiu seemed to have forgotten that he was also polite to Shuyin in the past.
Now it's like this.
Fu Cheng didn't come with him today, only Shuyin alone, he really needed the mood to continue to digest his emotions, almost every day soaked in the martial arts training ground, in such a cold winter wax moon, Fu Cheng is the most sweaty person in the sixteenth road month.
"Next, there is one more task for you." Sure enough, as Shuyin expected, Ren Qixiu would definitely not let go of any opportunity to squeeze her at this time, Cheng Rang's matter had just come to an end, and then, he had to do another thing for Shuyin.
Shuyin's keen discovery at this time seems that the things that Ren Qixiu has recently explained have to be done by himself, and as for others, it seems that it is difficult to complete.
This undoubtedly shows the high difficulty of the task, and at the same time, whether it is also reflected from the side, what Ren Qixiu has to do is finally becoming more dangerous, so does it mean that Ren Qixiu's good days are finally coming to an end.
"Lord Wang, please speak."
"Go and check, this is the mansion of Lord Cao Yi Cao in the court." Unexpectedly, the pivotal voice did not expect.
"If the prince wants to make friends, there is another way." The pivotal voice said to Ren Qixiu.
"It's okay, just go look this up." Ren Qixiu waved his hand, and his tone was very firm.
"Okay." Just after the pivotal sound was answered, he just wanted to retire, but Ren Qixiu suddenly remembered one more thing:
"By the way, you can arrange the 20,000 people on the outskirts of Beijing again, and now you don't need it."
When the emperor was sick, Ren Qixiu arranged the 20,000 troops to raise troops, which can also be temporarily shelved at this moment, he once wanted to use 20,000 people to frame Cheng Rang, but helplessly, the emperor did not believe it at the beginning.
Then Ren Qixiu can't lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot, he still has to find a way to erase the evidence.
Slowly, Ren Qixiu seemed to feel as if he had overlooked something.
That's right. Regarding whether Cheng Rang has a very good relationship with Ren Tingyou, the emperor obviously has doubts in his heart, but he has not asked what the emperor is waiting for.
Ren Qixiu didn't know, and he didn't dare to guess.
The emperor's mind is now the most difficult to fathom.
No matter what, it's better to let the pivot deal with it earlier.
"Okay." The cardinal finally received two tasks and hurried away.
Ren Qixiu's side, at this moment, the most trusted person seems to be only the pivotal sound, and when he is someone else, Ren Qixiu can't even think of any words.
Silence returned to all around, and it was a bit cold in November.
The latter is easy to do, but this Cao Yi really makes it a little difficult for Shuyin.
Who is Cao Yi, even if Shuyin sent someone to investigate, but what he found was blank.
He seems to appear out of thin air, and his presence in the court is not high, it seems that he will only come out when the emperor needs it, and the only time it was surprising was what he said for Cheng Rang.
He seems to be very trusted by the emperor, and he seems to have suffered something, no one knows his true face, but his really terrible hands hide his past experience in it, and if he wants to explore Cao Yi, Shuyin still has to start with the emperor.
Since that day, Cao Yi said that to the emperor, the emperor has not summoned Cao Yi, and today it has been a long time since he passed the decree to Cao Yi to enter the palace.
"Weichen see the emperor." Cao Yi saluted the emperor neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Well, get up." The emperor waved his hand, and he didn't seem to be angry about what happened last time.
"I praised the Nine Emperor Princes at the banquet last time, and then the Nine Emperor Princes contracted a cold and high fever that has not subsided to this day, Cao Aiqing, what do you think." The question raised by the emperor obviously has a certain conspiracy color.
"Someone is jealous, behind the scenes." Cao Yi replied so straightforwardly and without any concealment.
"Hahaha." The emperor looked up to the sky and smiled:
"I just like your straightforward personality."
"Wechen just has something to say." Cao Yi's face looked completely clouded, with his hands crossed in front of him, without the habit of wearing gloves, how terrible these hands are now, even the emperor, who has been watching for a long time, glanced at it when he was laughing, and he could stop the subconscious behavior of smiling.
"Then who do you think did it?" The emperor cleared his throat and asked Cao Yidao.
"Weichen doesn't know, the two princes are possible." Cao Yi's words aroused the emperor's vigilance:
"Two, why not three?"
Now the attitude of seizing the reserve is very obvious, Ren Qixiu and Ren Tingyou are naturally the first to bear it, but Cheng Rang, it is not impossible to say that it is impossible to seize the reserve.
"If the emperor is willing to give the opportunity to the third prince, then it will be the three princes." Cao Yi faced the emperor's temptation and took this move very smoothly.
Instead of nodding with satisfaction, it seems that Cao Yi did not betray him, among many princes, Cao Yi's analysis of the situation was objective and calm, and he did not favor anyone.
"I know, you can step down." The emperor really came and went in a hurry for Cao Yi, Cao Yi never said anything about it, even if the official rank was not high at the moment, and he took the same money, but Cao Yi really didn't need it.
This time, Cao Yi went out of the palace, but he felt something different.
He has always been alone, and when he is rarely accompanied by people, it is the same today, although there is still a slight drizzle in the air of Qianyang City, but Cao Yi is holding an umbrella by himself, and there is no other person accompanying him, Cao Yi walks slowly on the street.
The people behind him also moved slowly and slowly with Cao Yi's speed, which was too obvious.
In the next second, Cao Yi flashed into a small alley.
Seeing that Cao Yi had not been chased, the man began to search around.
Cao Yi tried his best to hide his aura from outsiders, and at the same time, under the wide official robe, the essence of a dagger loomed.
Someone is approaching.
The first moment the man entered the alley, Cao Yi firmly placed the dagger in his hand on the man's neck.
But listening to the footsteps outside the alley, it was obvious that it was another person.
"Don't speak." Cao Yi whispered in the man's ear.
Finally, the footsteps outside the alley gradually faded away, and Cao Yi also breathed a sigh of relief.
The man took the opportunity to snatch Cao Yi's dagger, obviously there was a chance to fight back, but the person who came just said to Cao Yi:
"Lord Cao, I am from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
