Chapter 251: The Secret of the Hall of Eternal Life
He Shun gave his henchmen a look, and a few little eunuchs went to the door to guard, and He Shun also lowered his voice and said, "Although Your Majesty doesn't want the old slave to serve by your side, the old slave doesn't dare to be careless, and has been paying attention to Your Majesty's movements in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and actually found ......."
He Shun's words lowered his voice, almost in Ji Ruhuan's ear, Ji Ruhuan frowned after hearing it, looked at He Shun and said, "Are you sure?"
He Shun nodded firmly, but Ji Ruhuan's face was heavy, and he lowered his head and pondered for a while before he said in a low voice, "If you want to keep an eye on it, it's best to arrange someone to get in and find out the specific situation, then the national teacher will definitely not be able to jump for long, but we must ensure Your Majesty's safety." ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Heshun's eyes, "The county lord has a way to expose the national teacher?"
Ji Ruhuan didn't reveal much, only nodded and asked, "The Palace of Eternal Life has left your people?"
He Shun didn't hide it from Ji Ruhuan, he had been in the palace for so long, and he was still the chief eunuch beside His Majesty, he used to be regarded as a character in the palace who called for wind and rain, and his eyes were all over the palace, and when he heard Ji Ruhuan asking, he opened his mouth and said, "The person in the dining room, he also inadvertently discovered that the national teacher was well defended, and it was definitely impossible to send someone into the Palace of Eternal Life, but he could let him explore the specific situation." ”
Ji Ruhuan nodded, "Then it's hard for my father-in-law, when my father-in-law investigates clearly, I will have arrangements here." ”
He Shun said, "The old slave is also for Your Majesty, the county lord is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so as not to arouse suspicion, the old slave asked the county lord to send the county lord to the princess." ”
Coming out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Ji Ruhuan was still shocked in his heart, what did this national teacher want to do? He actually dug a tunnel in the Hall of Eternal Life, and many people went in and out of that tunnel.
Could that be the Four Princes or Prime Minister Song?
But Ji Ruhuan thought about it and felt that it was a little impossible, the four princes and Prime Minister Song Cheng were now the most trusted by the emperor, and the national teachers were not guarding against them, if they wanted to see the emperor, they could just find a reason to go directly to it, why do they have to dig a tunnel to go in and out?
This national teacher dug tunnels, and who did he lead into the palace?
Ji Ruhuan thought as she walked, and at the same time sighed in her heart, Your Majesty has almost become a hostage in the hands of the national teacher, but the princes and ministers in the court are still fighting for power and profit.
I'm afraid that there are still many people who wish that His Majesty would die early, so that the people they support can take advantage of the situation, and they can go further and become heroes by the new emperor's side.
If it continues like this, what will happen to Daming?
After returning to Princess Xinyi's Yiran Hall and meeting with the princess, the two went to the East Palace to visit the prince together.
Along the way, Princess Xinyi said, "I just asked people to inquire, the queen mother is not in the East Palace, let's take advantage of the queen mother's absence to go over quickly." ”
Ji Ruhuan asked suspiciously, "Why, doesn't the queen usually let you see His Royal Highness the Prince?"
Princess Xinyi replied in distress, "It's not that I won't be allowed to see it, but every time I go over, I have to be reprimanded by the queen mother, saying that I am too noisy and don't disturb the prince's brother to recuperate, but I pay attention every time I go over, where do I disturb the prince's brother." ”
Princess Xinyi complained with an aggrieved face, but Ji Ruhuan listened thoughtfully.
The two of them sat on foot and soon arrived at the East Palace, but no one stopped them, and the two of them entered the East Palace unimpeded.
In the past life and in this life, Ji Ruhuan has not been to the East Palace for a long time, the queen doesn't like her, the prince is seriously ill, and of course she doesn't like Ji Ruhuan to visit her very much.
She remembered that she had come to Xinyi once in her previous life, but she was ridiculed by the queen coldly, what an arrogant temper she had at that time, she left the East Palace angrily, and then did not set foot in the East Palace again.
Walking in the East Palace at this time, not only did he feel cold and lonely, but it also made Ji Ruhuan feel a sense of twilight.
Moreover, the East Palace is filled with a strong smell of medicine, even if no one has been seen yet, it gives people a feeling of being terminally ill.
Looking at such a scene, Ji Ruhuan couldn't help but sigh in her heart, I am afraid that the whole court has forgotten the existence of this prince.
Even if it wasn't for the mention of the Nine Emperor Uncles, she probably wouldn't be able to remember this one in the East Palace, after all, she knew the ending of this person in her previous life, and she would eventually get sick.
She never expected that the Nine Emperor Uncles would actually tell her that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might not have died of illness, but poisoning.
Poisoned the prince silently, or under the eyes of the queen, this method is really terrible.
"The servant has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess, Your Highness, please stop. ”
Ji Ruhuan was thinking wildly, not wanting someone to suddenly block their way, so she saw a eunuch stop in front of the two.
Princess Xinyi frowned and reprimanded, "Bold slave, this palace is going to visit the prince's brother, why are you stopping this palace." ”
The eunuch was still in front of the two of them, and he replied without humility or arrogance, "The princess forgives her sins, His Royal Highness the crown prince is resting, and the queen mother instructed that no one should disturb him." ”
Princess Xinyi said angrily, "Hurry up, Brother Crown Prince is resting, let's wait for him to wake up." ”
The eunuch Shi Li responded, "Her Royal Highness the princess is angry, and the queen's orders are ordered, and the servants dare not disobey." ”
Princess Xinyi looked impatient, and said to the person behind her, "You guys pull him away from the palace." ”
But this eunuch is the queen's person, and the people behind Princess Xinyi are embarrassed, but none of them dare to step forward.
Princess Xinyi saw that the people behind her were not moving, and she was about to lose her temper, but she was stopped by Ji Ruhuan in time, and said comfortingly, "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is resting, let's go over there and wait, and we will come back when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wakes up." ”
Seeing this eunuch blocking the way, she felt weird, and reacted that she had made up her mind today, she must meet His Royal Highness the Prince, and if she can't see him during the day, she will also come to see her secretly at night.
The eunuch listened to Ji Ruhuan's words, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he answered, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is weak and not suitable to see guests, so the county lord should come back another day." ”
As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, he heard a soft female voice coming from inside the hidden door, "Fugui, who is making noise outside?"
The eunuch heard the sound inside, frowned slightly, but had to speak, "Princess Qiqi, it is Princess Xinyi and the county lord of Fengyang who came to visit His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
Then the female voice continued, "Let them in." ”
The eunuch named Fugui hesitated, and still stopped in front of them, "This ......"
Princess Xinyi was annoyed in the end, so she kicked Fugui fiercely with one kick, kicked the defenseless Fugui to the ground, and by the way, she also made up for two feet, and said while kicking, "Dog and powerful minions, you still want to disobey your master's orders." ”
Fugui, who only kicked the ground, covered his stomach and snorted the two of them, and Princess Xinyi relieved her anger and pulled Ji Ruhuan past Fugui into the door.
