Chapter 167: Not the Real Empress Jiang

Because of this, Zhou Huan told Chu Xingchen about what he heard in the palace (qíng).

Listening to Zhou Huan's words, Chu Xingchen's face suddenly had a slightly complicated look, but in an instant, he also reined in his (qíng) thread. "Princess, did you hear me right?"

Zhou Huan was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head.

"Chu Xingchen, even you don't believe me anymore?"

Chu Xingchen smiled, "I think there must be some misunderstanding, the only emperor you know is Empress Jiang, and she has been favored for so many years." ”

"Besides, that's the mother concubine of you and Qi Yu." , Chu Xingchen said with a smile.

But the words "pet (ài) plus" once again knocked on Zhou Huan's heart impartially, how could she forget, everyone said that the emperor favored Empress Jiang (ài), but why did she see it differently?

Late at night, the palace of the king of Chu was exceptionally quiet.

The bright moonlight poured into the scattered courtyard, and Qi Yu in a Xuanyi stood there, while Chu Xingchen next to him (shēn) frowned.

"These are all told to me by the princess of today (rì), I think it may have something to do with the one in the palace, so I ......"

Chu Xingchen's voice became smaller and smaller, because he also thought of this terrifying existence.

Over the years, Qi Yu has not been in the palace (qíng), but in the end, all traces have been erased and cannot be carefully investigated.

Sure enough, Qi Yu's brows were also tightly furrowed, and he sighed and looked up at the starry sky. However, the moon is bright tonight, but there is not a single star in the blue night sky.

"I've already asked the people from Yinyue Tower to investigate."

Qi Yuzhuan (shēn) looked at Chu Xingchen next to (shēn), but his mind was about Empress Jiang (qíng).

At the beginning, he almost lost his life (xìng), but his mother was sick in the palace. In the past, her mother was also very fond of her, but who would have thought that after going around in a circle, at the most critical time, her mother would abandon her.

Therefore, Qi Yu has been estranged from Queen Jiang intentionally or unintentionally, even though Queen Jiang is still approaching him.

"Rest assured, maybe it's not that complicated. The queen and the emperor get along day and night, how can the emperor not understand. ”

Chu Xingchen sighed, he had known each other for many years, he naturally knew what Qi Yu was struggling with?

In fact, Qi Yu has been so many years, and he is still the same heavy feeling (qíng) and filial Qi Yu. After all, he shouldn't want anything to happen to his mother.

But who knows, Chu Xingchen's comfort pointed out another direction to Qi Yu. "Maybe we can't find anything over the years, but my father knows it."

With a bang, Chu Xingchen suddenly felt that his whole person had been thrown into the bottomless abyss.

From the beginning of the investigation of the Weishui War, it seems that more and more people have been involved. The eldest prince, Concubine Wen, and now the Ming concubine who has returned, even fell to the emperor (shēn) in the end.

Chu Xingchen took a breath of cool air, "Qi Yu, you will protect me, won't you?" ”

Qi Yu glanced at Chu Xingchen, and after examining it for a moment, he turned his head decisively, "I'm afraid it won't be my turn." ”

Chu Xingchen was in the clouds, but he still pretended to be wronged. "You're just ungrateful, you don't want me anymore!"

Qi Yu......

He didn't mean to do so, he just wanted to make Qi Yu feel better, and everyone else felt that the affairs of the court were terrifying, and I was afraid that the person concerned, Qi Yu, would find it even more difficult to accept.

After all, everyone in this maelstrom was once the closest to him.

Obviously, it didn't work out well. Because the secret guard actually appeared, and then presented a secret report to Qi Yu.

After reading it, Qi Yu's face sank instantly, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

After a long time, Qi Yu's mind gradually cleared up, and he sighed and said to Chu Xingchen: "As I told you at the time, the queen of today (rì) may not be the queen of Jiang (rì), in other words, she is not my mother. ”

Hearing this, Chu Xingchen's face suddenly turned cold. He frowned and took the secret letter.

There will be no problem for the people of Yinyue Tower to do things, that is to say, the Empress Jiang in the palace now is not Qi Yu's mother, and the emperor still knows about this matter.

This question has been in Qi Yu's heart for many years, but he didn't expect that he would be found out so quickly because of Zhou Huan.

However, all things (qíng) are like silk and are intertwined, and in the end, it is still impossible to peel off each section clearly.

The next (rì) son is nothing special for Zhou Huan, except that (rì) (rì) accompanies Qi Yu from time to time in the mansion, and more often she goes to Wanfu Building to sit and drink tea.

Here she always seems to be able to meet different people and know different things (qíng). Until the time for the hunt to begin, almost all the power in the entire capital will leave with the emperor, and the Chu Wangfu is naturally no exception.

The hunt of the royal family must have taken place once a year, but the time is uncertain, and this year, the time of the hunt was chosen to coincide with the transition of summer (chūn), and all the princes traveled together.

However, to Zhou Huan's surprise, last time she unexpectedly heard the dispute between the emperor and the empress, originally thinking that the queen would not be among the travelers on this trip, but who would have thought that the emperor would accompany the emperor on the trip, in addition to Ming Guifei, there would also be a queen.

"Qingqing, what are you thinking?" Qi Yu suddenly opened his mouth to break Zhou Huan's contemplation.

Zhou Huan turned around, only to realize that Qi Yu next to him (shēn) was blinking at him with his big innocent eyes on his chin in his hands.

"It's okay, I just think this hunting ground is too good, and I can accompany (diàn) down to see more when the time comes." When he said this, Zhou Huan also stretched out his hand and touched Qi Yu's head.

Every time she saw Qi Yu's big watery eyes looking at her, it seemed that she could always poke the softest place in her heart. And Qi Yu's hair is a little hard, and it is very textured, and it is very comfortable to touch.

"If Qingqing likes it, I'll bring you here in the future."

Zhou Huan was full of sorrow now, and he didn't want to have any more entanglements with Qi Yu, so he nodded and agreed.

Last time, the emperor came to the Chu Palace, and he also asked her to take good care of Qi Yu. Since then, Zhou Huan has always felt that she and Qi Yu are in absolute danger, but the fog in front of her eyes is terrifying.

Zhou Huan's frowning brows have not eased, yesterday (rì) Yinyue wrote a letter to inform her that the emperor's frame would definitely attract assassins.

Therefore, Zhou Huan has been highly tense all the way, just waiting for the assassins.

However, Zhou Huan did not take much action except for the fact that he deliberately brought a few (shēn) guards with sharp hands when he came over. After all, the assassin incident was the direct start of the emperor's estrangement from Qi Yu.

Zhou Huan was worried, maybe those people were holding the same idea this time.

However, the Assassins did not wait, and they arrived at the camp......

Suddenly, the maid next to the empress (shēn) stopped the carriage. It was said that the queen mother (shēn) was unwell and fainted in the carriage.

After the carriage stopped, sure enough, a group of imperial doctors gathered in front of the queen's carriage, and the emperor not far away also looked solemn, and the Ming Guifei on the side stood (shēn) with relief.

"(diàn), let's go over and have a look."

Zhou Huan opened his mouth and pulled Qi Yu next to him (shēn) and walked over together, but who knew that they had just walked a few steps, but an arrow feather suddenly flew in front of them. Then, a bunch of assassins rushed out.

Those people were all dressed in black clothes, and they couldn't see their faces clearly while wearing masks, but they were all holding bright swords in their hands, and their postures were surprisingly uniform, Zhou Huan knew in his heart that this was the so-called assassin in Yinyue's mouth.

"Dog Emperor, take your life."

Those people seemed to mean something, and when they appeared, they all rushed towards the emperor.

The Imperial Guards brought by the Emperor shouted, "Protect the Emperor." Subsequently, the emperor and the Ming concubine who were with him were protected inside.

Zhou Huan knew about this murder, so as soon as the assassin appeared, Yuxi took a bunch of people to protect Zhou Huan and Qi Yu.

However, Zhou Huan, who had always been under the protection of the master, suddenly understood something when he looked at the direction of the assassin's attack.

Maybe the real purpose of those people is not the emperor......

Zhou Huan suddenly found that there were not too many guards next to where the queen was.

"Kill the queen first."

Sure enough, the group of assassins also noticed that there was no one next to the queen's (shēn), so they rushed over immediately.

Thinking of this, Zhou Huan hurriedly said to Yuxi next to (shēn): "Yuxi, go and protect the queen." ”

Yuxi hesitated for a moment and looked at Qi Yu.

And Qi Yu gave Yuxi a positive look when everyone didn't notice it. Then Yuxi and some people hurriedly rushed to the queen's side, fighting with those who rushed over.

For some reason, when the two parties were facing each other, a group of other people suddenly rushed out of nowhere.

Those people shot ruthlessly, completely ignoring any form, and directly picked up the blade and went in and out of the white knife.

Even whether it is a slave or a nobleman, as long as they encounter it, those people will not let go.

The scene suddenly became chaotic......

Zhou Huan frowned and looked at the scene of the killing in front of him, and began to wonder in his heart, how to look at it, this second wave of people should be assassins.

But what about the first wave?

Zhou Huan looked at the past, those people still had only one purpose, Yuxi led people to fight with those people next to the queen's (shēn), but the others were still besieged next to the emperor and Ming Guifei's (shēn).

However, the emperor and Concubine Ming were suddenly dispersed.

Qi Yu nervously held Zhou Huan tightly in his hand, and he pulled Zhou Huan next to his hand and protected him (shēn).

But in the end, he still had to hide his strength, so he could only pretend to dodge the opponent's bow and arrow by coincidence.

Because of the protection of Qi Yu and the rest of the people, they obviously didn't have so much embarrassment, but the situation on the side of the emperor and Ming Guifei (qíng) was very critical.
