Chapter 231: Killing the father and seizing the throne
In the past, he always felt that Du Ruonan must have wanted to change his identity as an ordinary businessman because of Su Zhiyu's noble status, and he also thought that Du Ruonan wanted to develop his cloth workshop better.
But now he looks at Du Ruonan's concern for Su Zhiyu, and he is sincere.
Of course, what changed his impression of Du Ruonan the most was that Du Ruonan would resist this matter, it is said that he was not good to Du Ruonan in the past, and this matter had nothing to do with her, Du Ruonan could completely ignore it that day.
But she was able to stand up for him regardless of her previous suspicions, which is enough to explain Du Ruonan's character.
"Daddy Ruonan, take care of yourself, I still need you to be wronged for a while, I have some preliminary clues now, I will find out the truth as soon as possible."
Hearing the voice of the second prince, Su Zhiyu knew that his time was up, and said goodbye to the two.
"If I can't get out this time, I must take good care of your mother."
Su Liangchen said to Su Zhiyu as if he was explaining what was going on.
Watching Su Zhiyu leave, Su Liangchen sighed.
"Dad, in fact, you don't have to be so pessimistic, not to mention that Zhiyu will definitely be able to find out what happened, and I have thought about it carefully in the past few days, the emperor's approach is too strange, the emperor should not have arrested you in the prison for the first time when he knew about this matter, but should have asked you to confront him, but we were directly arrested here."
Du Ruonan comforted Su Liangchen.
Originally, Su Liangchen was very disappointed, but after listening to Du Ruonan's words, he suddenly thought that the emperor's behavior this time was really strange.
"Maybe the emperor has been busy lately, or maybe this matter is not from the emperor's intention, no matter what, we will definitely get out of here alive anyway."
Du Ruonan said firmly.
"In the past, it was the old man who was dizzy and blamed you, and I was really against you being with Zhiyu at the beginning, but now seeing you like this really makes the old man ashamed, and from today on, I will believe that you are the daughter-in-law of my Su family."
Su Liangchen said meaningfully.
Hearing Su Liangchen's words, Du Ruonan's heart was very happy, although she was now in the prison, but she felt that it was worth it to be recognized by Su Liangchen.
After Su Zhiyu and the second prince left the prison, they went their separate ways.
Now the two of them already know that this matter is related to Zhao Xuan, so the second prince came forward to observe Zhao Xuan's every move, and then entered the palace to find the emperor to delay time.
Su Zhiyu swaggered back to Su Mansion, judging from today's situation, the news of his return had already reached Zhao Xuan's ears, so there was no need for him to hide it anymore.
Originally, he wanted to come back and interrogate the person who sent the letter to Zhao Xuan, but when he returned to the mansion, he found that the person had been killed, so it was difficult for him to find evidence that Zhao Xuan was behind the scenes.
However, this also made Su Zhiyu get some news, sometimes dead people can speak, if it weren't for Zhao Xuan's ghost in his heart, then how could he kill this person.
He did destroy the evidence, but he showed the fox's tail.
"Mother, don't worry, I went to see my father and Ruonan in prison today, they won't have anything to do for the time being, the most important thing for you now is to protect your body, otherwise my father will come out and see you so haggard, how can I explain to my father."
Su Zhiyu looked at the anxious Yurou and stepped forward to persuade him.
After some persuasion by Su Zhiyu, Yurou, who had not closed her eyes for several days, agreed to go back to sleep.
On the second day, Su Zhiyu rode out of the city, and on the way, he found that someone was following him, and it seemed that he was on guard against himself. Su Zhiyu brought back the guards who had exterminated the bandits and entered the palace to meet the emperor.
But the news he got was still that the emperor was seriously ill, and Su Zhiyu had to return again in vain.
"Anyway, aren't you looking for the emperor to stall for time? Was he really sick when you met the emperor? ”
After Su Zhiyu left the palace, he went straight to the second prince's mansion.
"Don't mention it, now my father doesn't even see me, Gonggong Li directly told me that the imperial doctor has explained, and my father should recuperate in peace, and no one should disturb me."
The second prince patted his leg and said helplessly.
Su Zhiyu thought to himself that if the emperor was really sick and no one was allowed to disturb him, it would be good news, and he would definitely have no time to take care of Su Liangchen's affairs.
But it keeps going on like this, which makes people feel very anxious, after all, the prison is not a good place, let Su Liangchen and Du Ruonan stay there all the time, how can Su Zhiyu's heart be relaxed.
"It's really strange, my father hasn't been to the court for half a month, and I can't see my father if I want to."
The second prince said with a frown.
Obviously, I went to meet the emperor today and hit a wall again.
"No, if the emperor is really seriously ill, even if we outsiders are not allowed to enter, we should meet your son, not to mention that the emperor has always been very satisfied with you."
The more Su Zhiyu thought about it, the more wrong it became, the emperor clearly didn't want to see anyone.
"But my father hasn't been to the court for more than ten days, if my father hasn't been sick, then how can he ignore the affairs of the court?"
The second prince understood what Su Zhiyu meant, and he felt that the emperor was pretending to be sick and not seeing him. 163
But if the emperor really doesn't want to see him, he doesn't need to pretend to be sick at all, he can directly tell him that I don't want to see you, this is the emperor's prerogative, where can he be so troublesome.
"Is there a way for you to sneak into the palace?"
Su Zhiyu still felt that something was wrong with this matter, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
"We are also concerned about the emperor's body, even if the emperor finds out at that time, you can also say that it is for the emperor's dragon body, and I have prepared the gifts for you, of course, I don't deny that I have selfish intentions, I want Ruonan and my father to come out as soon as possible." I hope you can understand me. ”
Su Zhiyu saw that the second prince was a little hesitant and persuaded him.
After speaking, he took the thousand-year-old ginseng and the Tianshan Snow Lotus to the second prince, these two things were originally gifts he prepared for Su Liangchen's birthday, but now that the people are almost gone, what is the use of these things.
The second prince is also ruthless, if he is not discovered, it is the best, even if he is discovered, the emperor blames him for nothing more than being scolded or snubbed by the emperor, compared with Du Ruonan and Su Liangchen's life, what is this?
The two of them changed into the clothes of the guards, and then the two of them came out of the second prince's mansion between the guards. The two of them did this to avoid the eyeliner sent by Zhao Xuan and Wang Lun.
If this matter is really related to the two of them, then the two of them will definitely be stopped before they arrive in the palace.
After the two arrived in the palace, they changed into eunuch clothes, and the emperor didn't see anyone, so they naturally had to use some special means to see the emperor.
The road ahead is easy to walk, but not everyone can enter the palace where the emperor lives.
But now the two of them can only climb over the wall if they want to enter, but fortunately, both of them are good and carefully climb over the palace wall.
"Who?"
A forbidden soldier shouted in the direction where the second prince and Su Zhiyu were, and as soon as he shouted like this, the surrounding forbidden troops came over together. The two hurriedly dodged to a dark place on the side, ready to move at any time.
"Obviously there is no one, are you mistaken?"
The other janissary looked around and found no sign of anyone, then spoke to the shouting guard.
"But I just saw a dark shadow."
Seeing that there was no one here, the forbidden soldier scratched his head, could it be that he was dazzled?
"It's so frightening, who has the audacity to break into here, isn't it going to die? Besides, there are three floors here, and the outer three floors are a swallow that wants to fly in, and we all know it. ”
The other forbidden soldiers said with a smile.
Seeing the forbidden army leave, the two were also relieved, it was not that the two were worried about being discovered by the forbidden army, they were found out just because they were suspicious of the two, the two of them were open in their hearts, and naturally there was nothing to worry about.
But if you fail this time, it will be even more difficult to get in the next time.
The two jumped in through the window and hid to the side, and found that there was a palace maid waiting for the emperor inside, but due to the distance and light, they could only see the emperor lying there.
Just when Su Zhiyu wanted to step forward to take a look, the second prince pulled him aside and hid aside.
"What are you doing?"
Su Zhiyu asked with a frown.
Now that the two of them have come here, the second prince will not retreat.
"Shh
The second prince covered Su Zhiyu's mouth.
There was only a creak at this point, and it was obvious that someone had come in. Both of them gasped when they saw it, didn't the emperor say that no one was seen? Then why is Zhao Xuan here?
"You get out."
Zhao Xuan instructed the maidservant on the side.
"You said that if you had handed over the throne to me earlier, wouldn't there have been so many things? Even if you want to do it for a few more years, what's wrong with making me a prince? Do you have to force me to do this? ”
Zhao Xuan walked in front of the emperor and said in a strange manner.
When the two heard that Zhao Xuan dared to say such a rebellious thing in front of the emperor, did they feel that their lives had lived too long?
But the two waited for a long time and didn't hear the emperor's blame, but Zhao Xuan continued.
"I don't want to do this either, but because Su Zhiyu's bastard killed my mother, I lost a big help, and you are now full of Zhao Ying, and you never take me to heart, so this is what you asked for, and when I secretly take over everything, you can disappear."
Zhao Xuan said proudly.
"Who?"
Because the second prince heard that Zhao Xuan actually wanted to kill his father and seize the throne, his heart inevitably fluctuated, and he accidentally made a sound, although the voice was very weak, but obviously it did not escape Zhao Xuan's ears.
The hearts of the two of them were in their throats, if Zhao Xuan knew that the two of them heard what he just said, he would definitely not let the two of them leave safely today.
