Chapter 175: Assassination
"Your father is seriously ill, so he will transfer all the major affairs of the court to you, don't worry about your father in this matter." The queen waved her hand impatiently, refusing to bother the emperor about this matter.
Because the emperor didn't know about this at all, she hid from the emperor and dealt with some people who had wolf ambitions around her and the prince, so if the emperor knew, he would definitely protect Chu Ling.
And there are some things that she doesn't want Chu Yi to know.
"Mother, is my father's illness really so serious? Even the sons were not allowed to see him. Chu Yi asked, the emperor was seriously ill, but no one saw him, only the queen, and even let him preside over the court was announced by the queen to the world.
The queen nodded, and said bitterly: "Yi'er, your father is afraid that you will be sad and will not let you see you." You also have to be considerate of your father. Chu Ling's ...... You let Hongu think. ”
The queen turned, her steps heavy.
In the past, none of the princes she disposed of stood up to resist, but this time, the minister of the court and the central government would actually stand on Chu Ling's side, it seems that Chu Ling is the same as she guessed, he is a white-eyed wolf in human skin, and he can actually envelop the officials of the court, thinking that there are already some of Chu Ling's henchmen in the court.
If she doesn't let go this time, I'm afraid those people will continue to make trouble, if she doesn't let go, Chu Yi will not be good in the court, and she will definitely be charged with killing her siblings, and the ministers of the court will definitely make trouble to see the emperor, which is not good for her.
But...... released, which means that her second brother Wei Chenghe has been falsely accused and will be imprisoned.
This matter will always implicate the Wei family, but it has been inseparable from the Wei family from the beginning.
In a row, the Wei family had two or three accidents in a row, died and went crazy, who was behind the scenes?
Thinking of this, the queen's eyes darkened, could it be Chu Ling......
It is very likely, because Chu Ling now has enough ability to confront him, taking the officials who help him in the DPRK and the central government, this is already a small fire, and it must have taken a lot of thought to be able to envelop the hearts of these officials to resist her.
And she has been investigating the murderer of the Wei family behind her back, but she has never found out, nor has she checked Chu Ling, and now, there is an object of inquiry.
If it was really Chu Ling, she would definitely ask Chu Ling to repay with her life.
Ay! She's careless...... carelessly, it was in vain that she worked hard for so long, but she ignored that Chu Ling was a powerful person, and she didn't find that Chu Ling's clutches were so deep, she originally thought that she could find a reason to make Chu Ling unable to get up, but she didn't want to be broken by Chu Ling.
Since Chu Ling cut through this layer of paper and stood up by herself, revealing her strength, then she would not flinch, and cruel methods should also be used.
After taking a deep breath, she turned around and said with determination: "Let Chu Ling come out and restore the throne." Put your second uncle in prison for the time being, waiting to be investigated. And also... Explain this matter to your second uncle, and appease your second uncle. "For today's plan, I can only plan after releasing Chu Ling first.
Chu Yi's face was filled with a satisfied expression, because this was the best solution, if Chu Ling was not released, the people in the court would definitely quarrel, and it would be out of control when the time came, so he nodded with satisfaction: "The son will definitely explain this matter to the second uncle, and the queen mother can rest assured." ”
The queen lowered her eyes gloomily, nodded sulkingly, waved at Chu Yi and said, "You go out!" The main palace is going to rest. ”
Chu Yi sighed helplessly, so he had to nod and walk out.
Chu Yi saw the palace maids and eunuchs waiting at the door, so he looked at Mama Li and said, "Mama Li, let someone clean the house." ”
Mama Li nodded slightly, and said to the palace maid beside her, "Go and let Chun Tao and Xiaoxue clean up." ”
The palace maid nodded, then retreated to call someone.
Chu Yi, who heard the word Xiaoxue, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but then strode away, ignoring the turmoil in his heart brought by this name.
Mama Li took the palace maid into the house, bowed her head in front of the queen, and whispered: "Queen mother, the slave maid has brought the palace maid who is waiting for you." Her name is Maple Leaf, and she will be by your side from now on. ”
The queen waved her hand disliked, walked to the chair on the side and sat down, blinked tiredly, and said weakly: "Serve all the food, the palace doesn't want to eat much." ”
Mama Li nodded, signaled to the person behind her, and someone stepped forward to clean up the food on the table.
"Maple Leaf, you go and give the queen a beating on the back." Mama Li said to the palace maid she brought. This is the person she newly brought to serve the queen, and I don't know if she can be loved by the queen.
Maple nodded silently, and immediately stepped forward behind the queen, and carefully slapped the queen's back without saying much.
The queen has no scruples about who is serving her at the moment? She has been flustered by Chu Ling's incident, and now she is upset and irritable, and she needs to calm down.
When Mama Li saw this, she retreated with peace of mind.
At this time, Wei Xueying and Chun Tao came to clean the house with brooms, and both of them did things silently, not daring to make too much noise to disturb the queen.
When Wei Xueying was cleaning, her eyes looked at the new palace maid Maple Leaf from time to time, and she always felt that this person was very cold and didn't seem to be easy to approach.
And Maple Leaf noticed Wei Xueying's eyes, raised his head and glanced at Wei Xueying, indifferently ignored, and then continued to lower his head and beat his back.
Wei Xueying shook her head and continued to do things, it was not the same thing for her to look at others like this.
The rest of the maids and eunuchs packed up their meals and then retreated.
Wei Xueying and Chun Tao also retreated after cleaning up, and when they walked out, Wei Xueying glanced at Maple Leaf out of the corner of her eye, and she found that Maple Leaf had a gloomy face, her eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a fierce gaze.
She was taken aback and felt that something was wrong, this maple leaf didn't seem to be very simple! But she walked out anyway, but with a lot of questions.
Not long after Wei Xueying walked to the door, she heard the queen's urgent and panicked cry for help from the house: "Come on... Save the rack. Ahh
The palace maids and eunuchs guarding the door trembled in panic.
Then everyone rushed into the house.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Maple Leaf holding a dagger in his hand, and the queen hid on the other side of the table, confronting Maple Leaf, and staring at Maple Leaf defensively.
As soon as everyone saw it, they knew it was an assassination.
When some palace maids saw this, they immediately hurriedly shouted: "Assassin... Catch the Assassins! "But no one dared to step forward to stop Maple Leaf's assassination.
"The queen's mother...."The eunuch who ran in saw this scene, and also shouted to the queen in horror, some people wanted to step forward, but they stagnated, did not dare to step forward, and hovered back and forth in the house with fear.
Chun Tao had already hid with all the palace maids, covering her mouth and watching this scene in a panic, only Wei Xueying was alone staring at the assassination scene calmly.
Maple Leaf glanced at everyone coldly, then narrowed his eyes, and rushed towards the queen with a dagger.
The queen's face was stunned, and she was about to flee.
And the queen's originally blood-red face was also frightened white, and there was blood flowing out of the queen's arm, presumably from the injury caused by the maple leaf assassination just now.
